More wage left at the end of the week. better lifestyle. you gotta knuckle down a bit to start with but jeeze its worth it. fitter / welder (CDN millwright) my base rate is $30 CDN. "ALL" overtime
  for me is 2X. Do the math and tell me. Actually rate is higher at the mo. $32.5 hr run a car and a minivan (one paid for already) will take you bout 2-4 yrs to turn it all round again once you get here.
  but if you got the right stuff its worth it. I aint got no degrees !!!!!!!!! depends how bad you want your dream and who you want it for ? Me ? its for my son and his future (just lucky that I seem to benefit as well) If you gonna whine after a few months don't bother. This immigration lark
  is long term stuff and only for those willing to tough it out. See too many whine and whinge about taxi drivers and doctors etc. last time somebody actually posted facts and figures about doctors and the likes, the amount was minor (and counted over quite a short term) in the grand scheme of immigration. Its a different labour market over here from most of Europe. took me 3
  month to get first job @lawknowledge.org.$24.5 hr and about 4 days to get second (still there 2 yr and counting) Me ? I am as happy as a pig in muck !
