883.0. "Work in CANADA" by OPCO::OSG_OT () Sun Jan 15 1995 08:48

    Hi,
    
    My name is Oktay and Iam from Sydney Australia, I was wondering if
    anyone out there could give me any information regarding  work
    visas in your country. I know us Aussies are eligable for 2 year
    working holiday visa in the U.K but I'm not sure on the regulations in
    Canada.
          I am a computer operator of 8 years experience working on
    platforms such as DEC vax/vms,UNIX and also IBM mvs/xa.I would more
    than appreciate any info on the availablity of any jobs in the computer
    industry.
          When the commonwealth games were on I was privelaged to see how
    beautiful Canada is on T.V, since  then I have set my mind on
    travelling to Canada so any info at all would be more than helpful.Look
    forward to hearing from you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

	Lot's of jobs in the papers these days for 'computer types'. Mostly contract work I'd imagine. I'm not sure of the legal limitations of you working here but maybe an immigration assistance organization can help.
