I don't know about getting a job in law enforcement, you may have to wait a while as the forces only recruit at certain times.

The best I can recommend is to check out the job sites relating to Saskatchewan
Thanks JGK,

I will check out the job sites etc. My problem is I don’t have a trade as such. I have plenty of experience from various jobs etc such as police, debt collection and call centres etc. This makes the move to Canada a bigger risk for the likes of me as I can’t really apply for work until I am there and this is my problem. I would be on the plane tomorrow if there was a job offer no matter what it was but this is not going to happen. This is why I am trying to find a place where there is plenty of work opportunities so a person like me can land and hopefully apply for whatever’s going to get a start.

Thanks again and what part of Sunderland are you from out of interest? I’m presently in the Pallion area. I have lived in most parts of Sunderland such as Roker, Doxford Park and Ryhope. Nothing much changes here so it’s probably the same since you were here more or less?

Regards
Billy
