You will have to decide where you want to live first. There are lost of companies out there you have to narrow it down to an area.

Unless things have changed which I'm not aware of then Ontario do not hire overseas drivers as part of their foreign worker programme.

Google the Ontario PNP or foreign worker programme and search for Long Haul Truck Driver to find the latest info.

If it's not on the list then you will have to broaden your area to another province,

So how come the overwhelming majority of ON trucks are driven by those who speak no English and wear the wraparound stetson on their heads:ohmy:

How the F*** should I know.....:)

Refugees, Applied skilled worker, 2nd generation immigrants, sposored family immigrant, family run business bought or expanded over years (Maritime Ontario) .... etc etc etc just the same as the UK if you head off to Bradford or Luton...:blink:

I did say Ontario WERE NOT authorising PNP applications for truck drivers and it may have changed... check out the Ontario PNP site for up to date information...

:thumbsup:

Added the following:

Truck Drivers 7411 falls under Cat C therefore doesnt attract PNP sponsership in Ontario... (Im now in 0,2 so dont care...:p.. just to p*** hughes3005 off to show people can make a success of Canada)
