    Prospects for a job in Toronto?  Relatively low for a city that's
    accustomed to low unemployment.  But if someone has a degree and
    experience, there shouldn't be too much problems finding a job.  The
    only problem is finding affordable housing
    
    Unemployment rates?   Toronto, I think it's around 10%-11%.  Canada,
    it's around the upper 11's.
    
    Best universities in Canada.  Generally the top ones are likely to be
    McGill in Montreal, University of Toronto, UBC, and probably a few more
    which others can mention here.  For Math and Engineering, University of
    Waterloo; for journalism, Carleton U. (Ottawa); for Business
    Administration, the other university in Waterloo I forget the name.

    I believe for Business Admin, the reply was referring to University of
    Western Ontario, which is in London.

    I think they were actually refering to WLU (Wilfred Laurier University,
    nee Waterloo Lutheran University) which also has a highly respected
    business program.
