Geez, tough crowd on here.
Have fun in Canada, I just spent a couple of months over there on a working holiday. I didn't bother to convert my licences tho.
There seems to be heaps of floats flights going between Vancouver and Vancouver island.
It'll be tough though, I've got a few unemployed Canadian pilot friends who are looking for their second jobs. They tell me it's extremely hard, even with experience to get any gig.
Make sure you get one of the social security card things when you arrive, The office is in downtown Vancouver. You need it to get a job and if you don't have one you'll have to go back to Vancouver to get it.
Oh yeah and get a letter from your car insurance company saying you have no claims. Without it car insurance/Rego(our CTP equivalent) is $180/month!
