I'm not kidding.
Canadian culture is very similar to the US so the shock would not be to great. US credentials & certifications (in most cases) are instantly accepted. Pay rates here are a bit higher. People get longer vacations.
Tax rate is a bit higher, but not likely for much longer. But consider the plus side.
1) family tax credit. A large family with a modest income (10 kids 40k per year) would recieve aprox 40k per year tax free. To have the same spending power in the US would require more than $100,000 per year. (calculate your amount here Child and Family Benefits Online Calculator
2) No medical cost out of pocket, except for drugs.
3) we need people.
4) Curling! CURLING
5) move to NB & be part of an exciting church plant
