Most Helpful Customer Reviews   2 of 2 people found the following review helpful: Great book for Canada, 1 Feb 2008 By  The Fox "The Fox" (East london) - See all my reviews Great book for Canada, but huge errors on the US side. The information on moving to Canada is invaluable. If you are moving you will find it a great resource. However, for some reason (Probably to increase sales) they also added America. Hello. its a different country. The laws in the US are completly different to Canada. So it actually provides misinformation regarding moving to the United States. Shame.  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?
