I hauled grain in Saskatchewan, retired now. I drove with a small family run trucking company based out of Saskatoon. You can make up to $100k per year and be home every weekend, sometimes during the week.
Housing in the region has gotten more expensive in the last ten years, plenty in the $300-400k range in the cities, Some under $200k in near by rural towns, some under $100k in farther away villages that may need to be worked on.
Company I was at had a couple of guys from South Africa.
I can give you some contact info. They stay steady all year around, but are extra busy in spring and fall for fertilizer and harvest.

that’d be fantastic if you could man, can I drop you a pm?

think the prices for housing in Canada has certainly risen but you get more for your money than you do in the UK that’s for sure!

Prob, the more you can do day 1, without much direction, the more they will want you.
