My advice is go to Toronto, one of my favourite places. Don't go to the west coast. While Vancouver may be nice, it is boring. The same goes for Victoria. Don't go to Quebec either. They can't even speak English.

Learn how to make a Canadian resume. This differes from a British CV.

Eat at The Pickel Barrel and get the lunch special Fajitas.

That's all you need to know.

25% of the Quebec population have English as their native language. That percentage increases in Montreal, which is a great city to live in. It's just impossible to get bored here, unless you really want to :). Very safe, low cost and "unstressed" for a city of this size too.
A lot of people, especially of your age Jag, speak a very decent english.

If you need advice or help for Quebec, I'll be glad to help. Maybe Miracle could help you with Ontario.

oops, just saw the post saying you're going to Calgary :)

Anyway, it's a great country to live in and I hope you have a great time!
