Aussies and Kiwis....

I think some things are easier for people migrating to NZ, but in my case it is Even-Stevens because of my profession being on the demand list in both countries. The problem with NZ is that there are much fewer jobs for me than in Oz.
But looking at the rules, it seems that NZ is a better place to go if you have dependants.

Ja, there are a lot of Saffers leaving South Africa, and quite a few going to Australia and New Zealand. They are probably tired of us by now  :lol:

Hi dude,

Just wanted to ask you: what's your experience been of going to Canada from Aus/NZ?  The reason I'm asking is because my wife and I are also priced out of the job market in Perth.  Do you know if there's much call for electronic engineers in Canada?  I'm only a graduate now, but I may like to move in a couple of years, when I have some experience.

@X-Ray: So, which looks more appealing to you so far?  Are there any other pertinent facts you've found out about the two countries which haven't been mentioned here yet?

do you mean Yamyams ? (as in: yow am, shortened) ie: the Black country accent ? personally I think Brummie is even worse...

There is no difference.

I think so far it is still even. Oz has the jobs (and probably better career prospects as a general radiographer) but NZ has great potential for me if I can get a specialist position. If I dabble further in forensics, NZ is going to suit me better.
Generally speaking, I have found it easier to get on with the Aussies than the Kiwis, but that only applies to people I have met here in London.

Why is it that the Leicester accent sounds sooooooooo imbecilic, yet the Notts accent doesn't?  There isn't that much difference either.
