Hi all!

I am a northern American gal (I know that sounds cheesy) but I visited Canada 5 months ago and I just can't stop thinking about it!! Fun fact I actually have distant relatives that are from Canada (prior to settling there were from Norway and Sweden) . I am actually very interested in the prospect of moving and settling in Canada. I am in the medical field (in the process of becoming a doctor) and really want to know the honest truths and feelings of Americans moving to Canada. It's no secret that we are a shit show. But I resent visited (only for 1 week) but I couldn't find a damn thing to dislike about the place!

If there anything to consider or opinions that I should be aware of? As much as I would like to migrate, I wouldn't want to move to a place where I would be unwanted.

BTW one of my fav bands is Fion and I CANT WAIT for them to have a concert in America so I can go.

Thank you for the honesty in advance!

I moved to Canada once, did the permanent residency stuff, got a job and had a life setup. Lived there for around 5 years before moving back to the states.

IMO, its a very similar experience. Healthcare is less of a problem than in the US. Something I noticed was that the hours sunlight throughout the years were noticeably different than what I was used to in the northeast: winters are long and dark. In summer though, id have light until like 1130pm which was neat.

I moved back to the states BC thats where my family is, not a problem with Canada.
