Re: Recommend a Realtor in Edmonton

I can recommend the realtor above (Snorkmaiden). Emails/calls are answered without delay - nothing is too much trouble - maybe you could send Snorkmaiden a private message on here? Good luck.

Re: FAO people in Edmonton

Last week Ribena was on sale for $2.99 in the Chinese supermarket in West Ed Mall. Think it's T & T. I bought 3 bottles and they had a huge supply of the stuff.

Our Golden Retriever followed us to Canada after five months of staying with my parents in the UK. This gave us time to save up the cash to fly him over, find somewhere to live etc etc. Maybe your...

Re: Travel Insurance to Canada for over 70s

Re: advice for people thinking of bringing their dogs

Hi

Not sure if this works, but I was told recently by a Canadian colleague of my husband's, that using tomato juice to wash your dog will get rid of the stink of the skunk! I don't know if it...

Re: Child Medical Fee.

Thanks for that info! Sounds like it is a bit cheaper in Canada. Hope everything sorts itself out with your daughter's medical.

Good luck.

Re: Child Medical Fee.

No problems, good luck with it all. I would be curious to hear what they charge in the UK for medicals. Someone told me it was cheaper in Canada, although I don't know for sure.

Re: Tax on Rental Income from the UK?

Oops!! Say, you did everything as above, except get the independent valuation of the property before you left? Would that cause you big problems if you want to sell in UK later?

Thanks.

Re: Edmonton move

Hi

I don't think you could go that wrong with any of those areas. I live near Magrath and there are some serious million dollar mansions up there! It is very nice but pricey.
