Guys: I have a PR offer from Australia and Canada. I need to make a decision by Jan 2006. Both I and my wife have professional degrees. I am an engineers and she is a biochemist. I am trying to figure out where to settle. Would appreciate some suggestions. Here is my reasoning for Australia.
- GDP per capita almost same between Canada and Australia ~ US$ 27500
- Unemplyment lower in Oz (~5%) as opposed to 7% in Canada
- Believe that Asia Pacific will be the growth center for this century so favor Oz over Canada
- Takes only 2 years to get citizenship in Oz than Canada (3 yrs)
- Temperate weather in Sydney/Melbourne/Brisbane than the bitter cold in most parts of Canada
- Canadaian economy too uch dependent upon US (a downer from current economic aspects)
- Degrees validated by assessing authorities prior to getting PR in Australia as opposed to Canada
- Australia is a net importer of Hi-Tech equipment as opposed to Canada. That one is a downer for Oz
On balance move to Australia should work out better!

BS there not changing the time to become a citizen from 2 to 5! And we are no more of a target then USA, Canada or England. Im an Aussie and lived in Canada for 6 years. Both are great places to live. So it just comes down to your own preference. Canada and Australia are very much alike!

I suggest that you go to Australia. Canada is overflowing with immigrants who cannot find work in their field of knowledge. If the process is easier in Australia and their unemployment lower, then go for it. They´re a great nation.

Pretty much useless post. When you have decided to move to australia whats the use of posting such garbage here.
if you have made the desicion do not spam the forum. And secondly dont hide behind anonymous name.
