Housing in Canada

Campus accommodation
 Most international students of Canadian universities, in their first year, live on campuses. Dormitories at local universities are called "residences." A student can book a place in the residence immediately after receiving confirmation of admission to the training course. Typically, reservations can be made online by reviewing accommodation options on the university’s website. You can also ask questions about living in the residence by contacting the residence.
 Most residences offer accommodation in rooms for two students. At the same time, kitchens, lounges and laundries are in common use. The cost of Internet connection and other amenities is usually included in the amount the student pays for accommodation. In most cases, payment is made every semester. Estimated cost of living at Canadian university residences is CAD3,000-7,500 per year.
 Compare the cost of housing on campuses of various Canadian educational institutions:
 Totem Park Residence, University of British Columbia: rooms for 1 or 2 students - CAD527-725 per month
 Douglas Hall Residence, McGill University: rooms for 1 student - CAD1,275 per month
 Riverson University International Center for Accommodation and Education: 1 student room with bathroom - CAD11,031 per academic year Chestnut Residence, University of Toronto: Room for 1 student - CAD14,000-18,000 for the academic year
 Off campus accommodation
 After completing the first year, most students start renting a house with friends, sharing expenses among themselves. In Canada, there are even special portals for finding neighbors for joint rental housing, such as Easy Roommate and Roomster. Neighborhood advertisements can also be found in newspapers, magazines, and student forums.
 Students who rent accommodation with friends usually have a separate room and use a shared kitchen, bathroom and lounge. Rental prices vary by province and city in Canada. The highest cost, traditionally, is observed in large cities such as Toronto, Vancouver and Calagry. But, even in these cities, rental prices are lower than, for example, in New York or London. Most students who rent a house with their neighbors pay CAD250-700 per month for it.
 Compare the cost of renting a 3-bedroom apartment in major cities of Canada:
 Toronto - CAD1,900
 Vancouver - CAD1,950
 Ottawa - CAD1,300
 Montreal - CAD1,050
 Edmonton - CAD1,500
 Calgary - CAD1,600
 What to do after moving abroad
 Homestay
 Foreign students of Canadian universities also have the opportunity to live in a local family. The cost of such a stay is about CAD200 per month, in addition, the student pays CAD400-800 per month for meals, cleaning, etc.
 Homestay is a great opportunity for a foreigner to make new friends among the local population, improve their English and have fun while living in their usual home environment.

Who benefits from working in Canada

Today, Canada is one of the most attractive destinations for emigration worldwide. However, many people wonder what professions are the most profitable and most demanded in this country. Especially often this question arises among those who are going to go to study in Canada. After all, they have a much wider choice of opportunities compared to specialists who have already received education in educational institutions of their countries. Income level or demand? When it comes to which profession or profession is most beneficial for a successful life in Canada, many people begin to calculate the average wages in this profession . However, this is far from always justified. After all, there are quite prestigious and profitable occupations, which are very limited by the number of jobs.

For this reason, attention should be paid not only to the profitability...

For example, I assembled a rifle back in 2015-2016, a helmet and a gas mask - also before starting work on the film. In general, each of the members of our film crew did something with their own hands for the film and the hut, this also applies to the costume of the protagonist: for example, we made boots separately (but jointly) with our operator, having agreed about their length. He did one, and I did the second. The hut itself is located near the Strelna station and is open to visitors, you just need to write to one of us about our intention to visit it, and we will let you know where the key to it is hidden.  - Explain a little to the readers about low quality and folk topics. Have you traveled to Vologda to look at lace and wooden architecture or to Ustyug to see blackening on silver?  - I have long liked the image obtained with the help of any imperfect devices: cameras of the late mid-1990s or phones of the early 2000s. Such pictures seem to allow you to see something...
