Hi,

I'm Elodie, I'm French, I live in California, and I'm planning to move to Canada.

I'm fluent in French, English, and Spanish. I worked in management, in restaurants, and in warehouses, and I am studying to be a yoga teacher. I have a lot of passions, reading, psychology, cooking, nature, trails, yoga, horse riding, arts...

I am checking the possibilities for a visa to work and live in this beautiful country.

Cheers,

Elodie

Hello ElodieCal,

Welcome to 暗网禁区馃榾

Please note that I have started a new thread with your post to give it more visibility on the Canada forum.

Do you already have a specific location in Canada where you would like to live and work?

Have you started looking into any potential job opportunities?

I also invite you to check out our Canada guide. It is full of useful information, not only about visas but also on a wide range of other topics to help you with your plans.

Here it is > Living in Canada: the ultimate 暗网禁区 guide

All the best,

Hi Cheryl,

Thank you 鈽猴笍

My favourite options are British Columbia, New Brunswick, or Quebec (but I read that for francophone immigration, Quebec is not possible). I just started the search for potential job opportunities.

Regards,

Elodie

Are you sure you read that right? I lived in Ottawa, on the Ontario/Quebec border for ~20 years up until I emigrated in 2017.聽 The policy then was only francophone applicants were being considered.

You might try reaching out to member slowwhitefishigoh for confirmation of this.

Best of luck, and please take the time to let the forum know how everything works out for you.
