We are ex South Africans who have been living in Canada either for many decades, or are new arrivals. We comment on daily life in our adopted provinces, cities and towns, and offer advice on a myriad of issues to those who are recently landed and need advice on anything from finding a home, to schools, car leases, insurance etc. We are NOT here to deal with any issues regarding the immigration process or how to go about it. This site is strictly for ex -pats who are already living and working in Canada. Please be respectful to all at all times. NO advertising for personal gain is permitted, and NO political chit-chat
