[QUOTE=vickysteve;6559111]Sorry Vicky did not mean any disrespect, but to me, helping another Brit to settle here is a pleasure, if I can make their arrival less stressful than our's was I will, I cannot put a price on peace of mind for these families and to me the small amount of money I spend is worth it, I can understand why you charge but it is like putting a price on friendship, Anyway well done for your help for the new guy's

[QUOTE=ronis sister;6560593]Hi ya ronis sister !!!!

I guess you have been asked this a million times but my wife and son are now ready to commit ourselfs to living in the beautifull country aka CANADA !

We havw now sold our house in the uk and are presently living in our caravan .... which is cool but its now time to kick ourselfs up the arse and start living instead of dreaming.

I am 40 years old have held my lgv class one for 13 years, my wifes 31 who is a nursery nurse and my sons 9.

Any info you have as i spent some time researching RJ Hoffmans but they seem to have dissapeared !!.... Have you heard of a company called SIEMANS ????

any way any information greatly recieved,

IVOR & SHARON

[QUOTE=scaniajzo;6759140]Siemans is a big company, don't know any one who works for them, you will hear good and bad about all companies depends on the person youare talking to, moving to Canada is about being prepared, make sure you ain't got your rose tinted glasses on, it's not all plain sailing and can be stressful, whatever money you think you need bring more!!!!

I've not read any of the responces, so forgive me if I screw it up :eek:
I've heard many rumours of Fort McMurry regarding living quarters and living expenses. Sure it sounds like a lot of money, and for anywhere else in Alberta it's excellent, but seeing as there's a huge quantity of money being banded around, living expenses go through the roof, (locals charge what the want for goods and services).
Please tell me I've been talking to the wrong people - Brother-in-law and my sister in Edmonton, who have been there for 3 years.

Re: Driving jobs in Canada
 

Hi all, I've just read through this post and can't find the answer I want. Can anyone tell me if there is work in Canada for Class 2 drivers?, and what sort of pay rate I can expect?. The driving market in the UK is dead at the moment, most of the work is going to eurpean drivers who have moved into the uk, thus all the agency's are paying basic rate.

Re: Driving jobs in Canada
 

Hi
Your looking for Class 2 driving jobs? to be honest I cant remember what class 2 is, is it upto 7.5 T with no trailer? I think that in European talk is Cat C?
Any way you need to read the bit at the top in reference to the Must read trucking thread. The blue background bit.
I am pretty sure that most provinces in Canada are looking for Class 1 (C+E)

Re: Driving jobs in Canada
 

No class 2 is rigid, I've just given up driving an 18t recover truck.
