Dear Canadians … Your information and opinions ….?

My husband and I and our son is a natural way all U.S. citizens born. We good education, paid employees, and social consciousness of individuals. Recently, we have been abroad to the United States. We are very afraid that this country runs and the number of people who refuse to return to some kind of normalcy or a quality standard. For us, Canada is a market leader important consideration. We would like to know more about the different cities, the total cost, the standard of living, education, healthcare – all great. Not much what you get from reading books and surfing the internet. I would like to receive information and opinions of Canadians really! Preferably we will not go too far north (such as light snobs climate) – if the border cities would be ideal. I am also looking for suggestions on towns outside the main cities are welcome to live, ideal for families, and still have a basic quality education for workers. Thanks!

Your question is too wide to help you with real information, but I'll try anyway: 1) The health system is fair. It is completely free for Canadians and permanent residents. To apply for an immigrant visa, I suggest you read it here: If http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/index.asp to get a job, your work will also provide some form of supplementary health insurance that covers drugs, eyeglasses and dentists. In some places it is difficult to find a good doctor and must wait for some services, but if you move to British Columbia or suburbs, you will not have this problem. 2) Life is expensive in Canada than the United States. Mainly because taxes. But the tax system is fair enough too, and you see you can get help for their children, study and sibjects others too. You can check the tax system Canada here (shek on "Benefits"): 3 http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/menu-e.html) The Canadian education system is free and good. I like it because it truth and promote multicultural integration. Also private schools, if you do not like the public system. You can also have their children educated at home or take if you want DL, depending on the province you live, will be more relaxed. 4) The system of child care is poor. If you have children before 6, you must take the decision to stay home, take a nanny or pay for child care. Child care is regulated but there is a shortage and in some places, it is not enough good and too expensive. 5) Many trades and professions are regulated in Canada. This also depends on the province in which they move. To check if your occupation is regulated, visit the following link: http://www.credentials.gc.ca/immigrants/start.asp 6) Canada is a beautiful country. But their time is not so nice sometimes. The best place to live if you hate the cold, is British Columbia (Vancouver area and Vancouver Island). Both are also close to the United States and is fairly easy Borth crossing the border in both directions. Personally, I like Abbotsford, Langley, Cloverdale and White Rock. Links are here: http://www http://www.city.langley.bc.ca/ http://www.city.abbotsford.bc.ca/ http://www.cloverdale.bc.ca/. city.whiterock.bc.ca / About prices vary from place to place, because some places are very expensive. Homes village (complete with garden and basement): 300.000 to 700.000 households: 100,000 to 400,000 of food (one month, the family of 3): 500-800 depending on how you eat you eat and rent: 700 to 2000 Telephone: 17-30 Internet: from 25 to 45 heat and power: 60 to deending 130/month whether or not electric oven / stove / microwave, etc. You can check prices here: You http://www.studyincanada.com/english/canada/cost.asp?Preference=canada can still save money if you get a credit card earn miles / points when you make your grocery shopping or banking. Because you have a son who are also entitled to tax benefit per child. I suggest you do your own research or do some provinces a question about a province or city where you would go, making it easier to help with more information.
