First step

First step--marry a Canadian. I think moving to Canada is sort of risky. I don't think I'd do that unless I managed to acquire a Canadian national passport. You'd get this through marriage.

I say this because if you do move to Canada and get even as much as a speeding ticket, you could be deported. Also, if your employer fires you or you hate your employer and quit, you'll have to start all over with the visa process. Visa hassles are a pain the arse.

Make sure you're squared away on ALL details before going north. You want to consider every "What if...?" imaginable.

Yeah I drive a Swift truck
And that means one thing
It means she's slow
It's a typical company truck
It's just all show and no go

I'm gettin' passed by Yella
And even Overnite
I'm gettin' passed by ever' body in sight
46 days on the road
And I'm not gettin' home tonight

No, my hometown's nowhere in sight
And if you think I'm pissed off
You're right
46 days on the road
And I'm not gettin' home tonight


Love pissing off those trucking company insiders.

If you are trying to move to Manitoba the best first step may be to contact the provincial nominee program for the province. Although immigration is a federal issue the provincial governments have become more involved in the process.

I don't have enough posts to link it yet but if you google the following words:

Manitoba provincial nominee program

and click on the link for something like:

Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program - A Canadian Immigration Category

you will find some good information including a self-assessment and toll free number to call.

They can assist you through the process if they choose to see you as a potential nominee.

I know that does not answer your question about a list of companies but someone from Manitoba might do a better job with that list than me.
