Canadian season advice...
Started by User in Canada, 5 Replies
Hi Ali,
Good luck with your quest!
But my point may stop you in your tracks.
What is the present situation with working in Canada for foreign nationals?
My info. is really out of date but I was blocked from taking seasonal work in Canada years and years ago by Visa requirements.
May be worth checking this before making any plans.
Of course, this assumes you are UK national and not Canadian.

Then on the final day it runs from 10am - 4am and the instructor takes you out and about over a few different runs for the day.

This is to teach you how to apres ski properly :lol:
Many people find this aspect of skiing far easier to master .....
Some small back pack to carry bits. Particularly something to drink (water!!). Skiing in the spring as it warms up and the sun gets more powerful can get HOT.
Being able to have a swig of liquid during the lessons etc. can make life much more comfortable.
I'd suggest group lessons as well - save the privayes until you have some specifics that need attention.

I really think you must qualify this Paralytic, what is "good" in this context?

and on topic - I have never been able to make heads or tales of any "conformity" both between airlines and within an airline on different journeys. I just do my best and then smile - seems to work.

Tropicana - I feel for you :cry:
Sounds like my wife - Bleackberries seem to go for a walk on their own - including down the toilet (don't ask).
I keep a spare now as she cries when separated from her crackberry.
:oops:
Mind you the present one has lasted 5 months ....
