If I go to Canada can I retire there and draw SS from the US? Also can I go to Canada buy a cabin or house with a plot of land and not work? Unless I just needed some walking around money? - eviltoast

    Well the pot would be just for me. I would just build a big green house or hot house and hydroponic the shit out of produce. And hopefully get a business license to sell it to stores or a farmers market/

      You’re not going to be able to live off produce grown and sold at farmer’s markets. Unless you’re a skilled worker with a degree or trade, or very wealthy, you won’t be able to move here. If you want to live off grid, you can do that in the US. You can’t just jump ship because the election didn’t work out how you wanted it to.

          There are visas for RNs, you must still hold the certification, apply for a visa, your credentials will be verified to confirm they meet the required specifications and then you’ll have to pass a an exam to confirm you possess the required knowledge to work as an RN. You may be required to speak French depending on where you work because this is a bilingual country.

          As for a Cisco certificate? That won’t work, you would require a degree in medicine, law or a similarly in-demand field.

            What about in Manitoba I looked it up the average price for a house is 168k. Is there anyway I can practice exam? And is avoiding Trump and hatred of what my country turned into get me thru inspection …?
