Ex Pat Drivers

There's a huge shortage of drivers in Canada right now. I found a site the other day about all you need to do to come over here and work as a trucker but darned if I can find it again. There were a few people from Germany and Denmark working at the last place we worked.

If I find the site again, I'll pass the info along.

From what I hear, there's a lot more demand for drivers in Canada than in USA and we are treated better for the most part but that's just MHO.

Some info for you:

I cannot verify any of these links or know anything about them so please use at your own risk but hopefully they'll help

 

I know Challenger has a few British guys on a work visa working for them.

 

Two threads that you might want to look at (they don't contain a lot of information for you, but it is an example):

There are lots of driving jobs here (in Canada), and there are definitely plenty of companies that are more than happy to hire foreign workers. Sounds to me like Human Resources Canada can be a little bit of annoyance when trying to get a job. But there are jobs. Lots of them.
