Question for the Canadian Peeps

Postby cerebus on Mon Feb 15, 2010 4:05 pm

What are some of the biggest, most-read martial arts forums in Canada? Could you provide some links? Many thanks!

The big ones are the same everywhere really.

There really isn't a "canadian only" martial arts forum. I mean there might be...

It's more of a language issue than a geographical one.
As canada is predominantly english speaking, the forums and interests are the same in any category really.

It would make sense, imo, to ask about the biggest internet sites in other languages --specifically (Brazilian) Portuguese, French. German, Russian and Chinese (at least). I wouldn't consider RSF an "American" site, or even that it has a geographical location. The basic commonality is language, even though there are participants who speak other languages.

Can I move in?

I would only say. Why? Why would you want to move to Canada? lol

I'd go for Australia first! then some other warm english speaking country.

No offense to my fellow countrymen, but I'd rather live in the UK than here in the colonies. lol

Oz would be cool!

In all seriousness though can an American "just move" to Canada?

Obviously there's some red tape my question is how much?

We've got a lot of Canadians down here, you can recognize them because they use the present perfect and they steal all of our comedy shows... ;)

It's a long shot but it's always good to weight your options.

Last time I looked at the Canadian govt web sites around 2000, an American could "just move to Canadia". Thanks to NAFTA, all ya' needed was a written job offer, written credentials to match the job offer, and a U-Haul, then just drive up to the border and they would generally let you through for temp. residence, no green card, etc. It helped if you were wearing flannel and could name all 13 provinces/territories. And don't mind the Canadian customs agents, they're trained to be jerkwads.
