I read that the cheapest housing is in Manitoba with an estimate of 168k US. I so far got 250k in the bank. Basically I want somewhere remote grow some pot and be left the fuck alone.
The problem isn’t housing though, it’s the cost of living. EVERYTHING is more expensive in Canada, since almost everything is imported. Since the growing season is only about 3-4 months maybe (except for parts of BC), almost all food is imported (usually from the US, and as soon as those tariffs hit, the already-high prices are going to skyrocket). Clothing (of which you need double, since winter), books, school supplies, electronics, tires for your car (again, two sets), just every-fucking-thing is imported and expensive.
Do you think you can produce enough food in a 3 month growing season to keep you fed and healthy all year long? Do you already have a full set of proper winter clothes that are warm enough to make it through a Canadian Winter? Do you have a vehicle that has a block heater installed in it already, and winter tires for it? How are you going to pay for gas, and heat your house? And pay for electricity? And you may want to consider pot plant selling as a hobby instead of a main income source, since everyone grows their own already.
Well the pot would be just for me. I would just build a big green house or hot house and hydroponic the shit out of produce. And hopefully get a business license to sell it to stores or a farmers market/
You’re not going to be able to live off produce grown and sold at farmer’s markets. Unless you’re a skilled worker with a degree or trade, or very wealthy, you won’t be able to move here. If you want to live off grid, you can do that in the US. You can’t just jump ship because the election didn’t work out how you wanted it to.
There are visas for RNs, you must still hold the certification, apply for a visa, your credentials will be verified to confirm they meet the required specifications and then you’ll have to pass a an exam to confirm you possess the required knowledge to work as an RN. You may be required to speak French depending on where you work because this is a bilingual country.
As for a Cisco certificate? That won’t work, you would require a degree in medicine, law or a similarly in-demand field.
Even though cannabis is legal to grow for personal use (under certain conditions), it is illegal to sell unless you get a proper license and there are tons of regulations.
Traveling nurse unless I get show or break something I should be fine. Unless Canada doesn’t offer vaccines then I am pretty fucked come new covid or flu seasons

Housing costs are the least of your problems.
I just want to buy a house have a couple acres. Grow stuff and maybe have a couple pot plants and resell them. Just living off what I can produce.

Is there any contract work for a person who is a certified Traveling Nurse or someone who has a diploma in Cisco’s website?

I meant grow my own cannabis for just me and use the rest of the land to grow vegetables and produce. And just sell that kind of like a business.
So you think you can retire on the remaining $80,000? lol Canada is a very expensive country to live in.
Until you need a doctor. And then some more…

Not quite common here. Don’t know about Canada, but you want to find out in advance.
