Speedbird, very well put. I am a proud Canadian. I love this country and have seen most of it.
But....the avation industry in this country is whacked!
Fortunatley for me I am happily married. Unfortunately, with my wife's chosen profession, although highly educated, she would probably have a problem having her certification accepted in most non-english speaking countries. Probably for that matter, in some english speaking countries. That makes it difficult for me to choose to work abroad. Sincle I love avition, I will slog it out here. The closest I will get to Speedbirds type of carrer, possobly, is working for a CX based in Canada. Unless of course, we can find out which countries will accept my wife's qualifications and reward her accordingly.
Oh, well...
