ATC in Canada
Hi all
Just wondering if anyone knew if it was possible to get ATC jobs out in Canada?. I have 5 years validated experience of tower and approach and have family out there .
Seems like ATC is one of the jobs that is in demand out there but wanted to see if anyone knew before I contact each individual tower
thanks

Hi!
I had a go at contacting NavCanada a couple of months back, this was the answer i was given;
NAV CANADA has had the opportunity to review the current Experienced Controller Program and have decided to not continue with this initiative. Our results to date have not met our expectations and with this, NAV CANADA will not be considering applications from foreign controllers. You are however, more than welcome to apply under the regular stream if you wish to do so providing you meet all the prerequisites to apply.
So not that welcoming at the moment
Good luck anyway!

Oh well.
No harm in applying through regular stream but if accepted you would probably have to go through full training which would be quite a sacrifice if already valid...and finacially challenging. Good luck with whatever you choose.
