Q: we are looking to emmigrate to either newzealand or canada and wondering what the pay is like for these professions in both countries as its what me and my husband do for a living, also how easy will it be to find work in these sectors
A: If you have UK certificates, you will still have to sit Canadian qualification tests to be allowed to work in any of those "regulated " professions here. Plumbers are in demand in Canada, as are what we call "dental assistants ". Both types of employment are going to pay above the national average for a skilled worker.
