It is estimated that there are 3.3 million British citizens living in Canada and Canada is the third most popular place to emigrate. Canada is a vast land mass, much bigger than the USA. However much of it is extremely remote and indeed 85% of the population lives within an hours drive of the USA. The main cities all stradle the border area.
Because of its size Canada's climate is varied and changeable, but it's safe to say that the areas near the coast or the Great Lakes have milder winters and cooler summers than the interior. July and August are reliably warm throughout Canada, even in the far north. November to March, by contrast, is an ordeal of sub-zero temperatures almost everywhere except on the west coast, though winter days in many areas are clear and dry. However all large Canadian towns and its citizens are geared up to the challenge of cold conditions.
You must have lived in Canada for at least three years before you can apply to be a Canadian citizen. It is also a specification that you can speak and understand either English or French as both are official languages of Canada. In Quebec expect to speak French, elsewhere English.
If you are emigrating you may well want to rent accommodation to begin with. You can expect to pay between $350 a month for a room, and $2,000 a month for a luxury apartment or a large house. Again the choice for purchasing a property in Canada is wide and varied depending on location.
It is important to get advice from an estate agent (realtor) and to conduct the sales process with a lawyer.
As most people moving to Canada are emigrating to Canada they normally have large sums of money to transfer to Canada. The process of transferring currency to Canada can appear quite daunting but by using a specialist company to transfer funds to Canada you will find their help invaluable. They can help you devise a strategy to maximise the value of your currency transfer to Canada and explain the process. The exchange rate of the Canadian Dollar is ever changing and it is important to try and get the best exchange rate of the Canadian Dollar at the time of your transfer.
