Where is the best place to settle in Quebec? And can I buy any flat for like 110-120k euro?
Poland is going down the shitter fast, the current government just destroyed the separation of powers and now controls the courts and can, basically, jail anyone if they want with the natinal guard being a thing I'm affraid they're preparing to imprison and shoot people if they go against PiS and violations of human rights and democracy.
That's why I want to move to Quebec with my gf. I'm a educated person who finished law and a small company owner. Quebec has statutory law so it's the only place in Canada that fits my education.
Is it hard to get a work permit? A permanent stay? I want to get out of this shithole as long as I got the money to do so and I'm not old so that I'm too tied to the place I live in.
Honestly, your best route is to do an LLM in Common Law in a non-Quebec law school. Start with a student visa, and then try to find a job for a work permit.
I don't know much about the Quebec bar but in general, you can only get a non-minimum wage job in Quebec if you speak french fluently and without an accent.
Connor Garcia
Well I can learn french, the no-accent thing though will be hard.
I got some family in Quebec, I guess they can help me out at the begining to find a job but as a person who's writing a PHD work I'm wondering about teaching at a university. Do I need to know french there as well?
Jace Reyes
what's with all the quebec threads
do you know french? if you do it increases your chances tenfold
Michael Cruz
oh wow, i'm a fucking idiot
you pretty much answered that right above
Zachary Barnes
Forget What he said about the no-accent thing, no country would require such a meme.
If you are looking for job opportunities in teaching I guess main cities will be your thing. Some universities won't require French like McGill university or even Concordia or Bishop's but I don't think these two last ones have anything law related. McGill is in Montreal, its a comfy college and is one (if not the number one) of the best university in Canada. But Montreal is a generic big city though and it has awful traffic due to being on an island.
Other than that, there is Quebec City, which is smaller but still has a lot of job opportunities, might need more French in this city though compared to Montreal.
What I would recommend is Sherbrooke, where Bishop's university is located. Its relatively smaller, isolated in the mountains, close to the USA, very white (if you're a Sup Forumsfag) and overall really great city desu.
Im here if you have other questions polanbro
Jaxson Kelly
I'm an actual Québécois studying law at Sherbrooke, seems like I too could be helpful.
Jace Sanchez
UdeS? Do you like it? Are you a Sherbrooke native?
Im still in cegep but contemplating chemical engineering in UdeS, its either that or in McGill.
Tyler Wood
If you don't speak french please don't come.
Daniel Harris
Oui, l'UdeS, et j'viens en fait de Chicoutimi. Sherbrooke c'est bien, tranquille, et l'université et la ville sont très biens pour les étudiants.
And yeah, Polandbro, please speak French, adapt to our values, or go somewhere else
Jaxson Long
>adapt to our values pas si difficile considérant que la pologne est encore très catholique
Lucas Perez
I don't care about whiteness I just want a proper place to be a proper human being and be able to live and be left alone. Really, I just want to work and raise my kids in a non hateful environment that dosn't shit with hate all over people.
Ian Lee
Sherbrooke is fucking cancer if you try to get a minimum wage job though.
Having so many students mean that all the jobs are taken and bosses treat their employees like shit because they're easily replaceable.
Great city otherwise, cheap as fuck rent and good public transport.
Not that white though, I lived in a very indian infested area, peacefull nonetheless.
Landon Cook
see
Alexander Morales
hmm, watching because I am interested as well.
Alexander Campbell
And I forgot to add: thanks for the answer.
I can learn french but before that I need a job and I speak only english(besides polish).
Also:
can I buy anything semi-decent with 120k euros?
Henry Rogers
Oh yeah OP, one of the reasons why I suggested Sherbrooke is for cheaper flats compared to Mtl and Qc, that could possibly fit your budget. You might also think about Gatineau, which is just across the river from Ottawa, our country's capital, located in Ontario. Gatineau is also cheaper than Montreal and you could use English in Ottawa, but yeah don't be a cunt and learn French.
Leo Sanders
Also, try the "régions" (aka not Montréal or Québec), employment might be somewhat tougher to find, but I'd think pricing could be cheaper.
You should move to North York, Scarborough or Brampton and enjoy the diversity.
Cameron Richardson
Like I said I got no problem with speaking French and I doubt Canadian values are much different from my personal ones.
I'll just look for some universities that are looking for some tutors/teachers, I mainly want a uni job since it's the thing I'm good at.
Luis Peterson
>I can learn french but before that I need a job and I speak only english(besides polish). Why would you go to Quebec then?
Joshua Lopez
I suggest you visit Tadoussac, beautiful tiny village with whalewatching cruises (had a student job in tourism, am now a shill).
John Rogers
Sorry bruh je nay parle pass the fransaise but I still got dat French Canadian citizenship
David Lewis
How difficult is it to become citizen of Canada? Do I have chances to get there once I finish my medical university?
Caleb Long
>I'll just look for some universities that are looking for some tutors/teachers, I mainly want a uni job since it's the thing I'm good at.
Grad students get those jobs invariably. There is a high turn over to keep the scam going.
Owen Rivera
120k euros is what? 250k dollars? It depends. You'd have to be less in the cities and suburbs and more in countryside or even further regions like Saguenay or Abitibi which are 0% English. I dont follow housing this much, but I remember my mom buying in 2006 a nice two story house with a 80 000 square feein the countryside of a cozy village for around 250k dollars. But most houses in my town cost around 350k-400k bucks.
Juan Campbell
Thoughts on edmonton?
Xavier Long
Read my posts, the law system is important due to my education.
Adam Robinson
Living in Calgary or Edmonton you get an Ulaanbaatar vibe.
Kayden Martin
>degree in medicine Shouldn't be too hard for you. I don't know why you would come here though.
John Watson
I honestly don't think you can be successful in any capacity in Quebec without knowing French.
Nathaniel Campbell
Also if you don't want Québec to separate from Canada please don't come either.
Immigrants cucked us last referendum.
>medical university
They won't recognize your diploma, you'll have to go back to school or work at the minimal salary.
Jose Ross
This
Stay in downtown Edmonton and its allright. Go 30 minutes in the north and you will think you're on the moon due to the completely fucked up landscape from digging for oil. Go 30 minutes south and you arrive in a flat cornfield with corn everywhere you look. 35 Celsius in summer and -40 Celsius in winter.
Evan Gutierrez
He's not from India, he's from Russia... Of course they will recognize his degree.
Aaron Ortiz
No they won't, Russian universities are notorious for being diploma mills
Canada is sure 100x times beter than current Russia I want to get out while I can and they still let people out.
Logan Nelson
lol how can you blame immigrants for losing the referendum when you lost it by a larger margin in 1980, when there were far less immigrants than during the 1995 vote?
Gavin Sanders
flames weren't as fanned and terrorism a few years prior
Anthony White
Not hin but the situation was different in 1980. We were not ready for a referendum. My father and most people of his age (52) are separatists and he could not vote in 1980. I know virtually no one above 65 years old who support Quebec independence though.
The thing is if you look at the 1995 referendum, we lost by around 40 000 voices. Newly arrived Immigrants and Anglo Canadians voted almost exclusively no. This obviously leads to believe that among French Canadians, the support for independence was probably more around 60% instead of 49.6%.
David Clark
the government also promised many things and then went on to break all those promises
Nolan Young
Well I'm writing a PHD work on a really niche subject, and I'm good in it so there's that.
