There was a news story over a year ago where a programmer from Europe came to Canada. Never landed a job for two years. She, her husband and her parents were on some kind of social assistance the whole time.

>>On this forum there are solely computer experts. Personally, I'll never gonna emigrate. But there may be others here who have ideas about moving to another country. Is there anything that can be said to those colleagues? Their talents, esp. those from Eastern Europe, sometimes strike me. And I can't imagine that there are 'guilds' that will obstruct them.
