Some useful information

This book was very helpful to us in the early days of our immigration preparation, before we had even chosen which province we were going to live in. We came from the UK, and I imagine that the book has specifically been written with European immigrants in mind. One of the authors, Benjamin Kranc, also writes for the Canada News, a monthly British publication intended for people preparing to immigrate to Canada. His articles are well written, but are intended for those who are just setting out on the long immigration process. This book seems to fall under the same category, and I would recommend it for anyone from Europe who is in the beginning stages of thinking about coming to Canada to live. But for those further down the line, with visas in hand, I don't think there is anything much in the book which would be new information. After all, if you are about to move to another country, you have probably already done a great deal of research on the Internet etc - right?If you REALLY want to know about life in Canada, and have those precious visas or are newly-landed in Canada, I would recommend the slightly more tongue-in-cheek 'How to be a Canadian' by Ian and Will Ferguson instead. But hats off to Kranc and Roman for providing some useful information in a very easy-to-read book.
