I agree, in europe is not easy but you can find a "Heavy-metal" job with few hundreds of hours and get a good salary. You still need to know someone (like here) that push you in though.
Here is VERY, VERY difficult to get a job (even if you know someone) in a 206 with 2000TT. I know people that got their instructor rating at TAL and after they had to look for a job somewhere else, some got hired and are making no money!!!!
An instructor rating a TAL (geat school, don't get me wrong) is about 8000$, IF you get the job you will make 15000$ per year If you consider the cost of living in Toronto and the taxes you will NEVER get those 8000$ investment back, plus, when you get to your ATPL and 1500TT LOCAL flight time, your resume' is good for a ramp job, KFC, Wal-Mart or Home Depot.
If you are 19-20 years old looks good otherwise... EUROPE!!!!
