After doing my research I never even applied for Australian visa. Think how stupid it was - they wanted me to pass my licensing exam first before submitting my application for immigration. Thanks but no.Tell the truth. Australia denied you and now you hate all Australians, including Exum..
I don't hate Australians or Exum. I hate how over hyped he was and where he was drafted. Had we drafted him with 23d pick I would have no issues whatsoever.

I have no real knowledge of the immigration process to Australia, but being an Australian and I can advise of the following:
* We currently have a very right wing government in place, who are using the populist view of limiting immigrants and boat people as a political tool. So I am not sure what are immigrant intake is, but I assume it is not very generous at the moment.
* In Melbourne, where I live, there is a big Turkish community and Turkish shopping/eating streets etc.
* In Melbourne, weather is pretty good - but we have all the seasons, just not at the extreme levels - winter = 10C - summer = 20-30C.
* Good thing about Australia, is you are far far away from all the bickering in the northern hemisphere
* Life is pretty stable is Australia - everyone is to laid back to do anything about anything. You aint gonna see no revolutions down here!
* If you want hot hot - Perth, Brisbane or Darwin are the cities for u.
I can confirm that those info are legit.

Canada is awesome. Growingly very immigrant-friendly, accessible social services for all, decent variety of political representation, economic opportunities everywhere, and large immigrant communities for you to feel a little at home in case you get homesick.
As a 20 year old Canadian who moved here at the age of 2, I think the best gift my parents will ever give me is the fact that they raised me in this country. I feel immeasurably blessed, and I truly love my own country, and love my own city. Yes, even Edmonton, the city that hits -40C in Winter sometimes. I cannot tell you how excited I was to come home after spending 5 weeks in Europe.

Edmonton particularly has loads of job opportunities, but it's probably the coldest big city in Canada (along with Winnipeg).
Your kids will be totally fine with it-- maybe you won't be, however. Personally, I don't mind the cold at all. We have friends from Lahor, Pakistan who moved here in 2005, and they're completely used to the cold.
Cities like Toronto, Vancouver, and Victoria will have milder temperatures, but more limited job opportunities from what I recall.

Your boogers freeze in like 2 seconds, and your exposed skin kinds feels like rubber.
Nothing that a warm scarf + toque + gloves can't fix tho

nothing certain one that front bro:.
One day I am leaving for Canada, one day I'm telling myself "it is all sweet and dandy down here".
I am torn, to tell the truth.
add-on: besides, what am I going to do?
I don't think I may work as an academic staff for the jpob opportunities are dire nowadays. I sometimes toy with the idea of opening up a business, a Subway maybe (and then apply for a E-2 visa). Requires at least 300K US dollars to open up one, which may be doable and yesterday I checked Salt Lake City (and Boise & Utah County , as well) franchise opportunities . I toleja boyz, I am a Utahn, thoroughly!
Where is PKM, when you need him?
Bro:. could you lend me some money? thanks in advance!
I'll posrep you for 100K

It's funny, but whenever I talk to people who live further south, they seem perplexed as to how it's possible to live when it's under -30 for a week. Then you explain that houses in Canada have pretty good heating(as if they don't in the US and Europe or something), that we have cars, that most of your life takes places indoors anyway and that the cold doesn't really affect that. Your car is heated, your house is heated, your work is heated, the mall is heated, restaurants, schools, etc. It's all heated. But it's so cold outside, they'll say. You can't go out. As if -30 happens in July. It happens in January. I don't know what Boston or London or NY or Tokyo are like in January, but I know they're not freaking Provence in the summer. You don't sit on patios of cafés or go rollerskating. I don't imagine January is spent on outdoor pursuits in those places either. Since you're mostly indoors during that part of the winter, what the hell does it matter if it's -10 or -30 outside?
