All colonials, what's the difference?

Except Canadians are more sophisticated.

Lots of rumour and speculation going on. Last check was they were looking for tower only (that's on the website) and I believe the contact listed on the website is away on maternity leave.

Anyway, where's this talk of Brits come into it?

Just guessing, but perhaps EDDK might want to know if there are any Germans working in Canada?

He might also wonder why a LHR controller is butting in!!! (lol)

You don't have to be Canadian to provide information on Nav Canada rates of pay, conditions, etc - do you?

OK then, as LHR controllers know everything, let Gonzo enlighten us on his Nav Canada experience.

Is it me, or has it gone quiet.......

There were 2 there I knew of before I left the Uk nearly 3 years ago. Never heard anything more regarding checkouts.
