Re: new to flying, could do with some help/advise

I am not winding you up at all. I am just surprised that you suggest AC would post something that is wrong for all of its passengers. What do you think happens for those coming through YYZ?

Re: Hamilton, Ontario

I have family who live near Gage Park and actually looked at a house in that area recently. I quite liked Ottawa Street. But not especially cheap. Depending where you are working also look at St...

Re: Cost of living and where to live in Toronto

Well, the last few offer letters I have signed range from about 55 to 70. These also come with a decent benefit package. I would really suggest the OP look at teaching for a whole range of reasons.

Re: Cost of living and where to live in Toronto

I, of course, agree with Novo. It is low. Are you able to teach a couple of courses to supplement income? I can't speak to U of T but often post-docs become a part of the Faculty Association and can...

Re: UK teacher qualifications in Canada

The short answer is no, at least not without additional work. Prior to 2015 the answer would likely have been yes (though the two division/two subject aspect has always been an issue) but with the...

Re: Where to live.

Toronto does have great gigs, one of the things I really like about the place. In terms of old men punk bands I have seen Buzzcocks, PIL, Angelic Upstarts, UK Subs, Steve Ignorant and shortly The...
