Envoy is a professional community for newcomers --to ensure your move to Canada is a step forward, not a step back.

Moving to Canada is a massive undertaking, but it shouldn't be an ordeal. I want to share everything I wish someone had told me. And I still have a lot to learn too. Let's share our best insights and help each other do great things in Canada. 

I'm working to build a great community of wonderful people, where we all support each other and I'm personally available to answer your questions every day, to help make your move here as easy and successful as possible.

About Tim

I know what you're going through.

For 20 years, I was the one trying to figure out my drivers' license, in Singapore, England, and Thailand. I’ve spent those full Saturdays at Ikea, buying the same furniture I'd already bought in the last country.

Today, I live back in my home country (near Ottawa) and I can walk to my local downtown bakery in about 3 minutes. But I still feel like an expat just as much as a local. So I can relate and I'd love to help you keep from getting exhausted, trying to make your moving-to-Canada decisions alone.

Moving to Canada shouldn't feel like trying to pass a foreign-language exam. There's a lot to figure out, like Canadian hiring and workplace dynamics or how to build a good credit score from scratch. And you can try to Google everything, but it helps getting advice from other people who've been through it or are going through it--getting plans and answers and overhearing other people asking questions you hadn't thought to ask yet.

The best moves give us more freedom and let us be better versions of ourselves. 

Some stresses are unavoidable, but a lot of them can be avoided with good guidance. So anyway, I'm here for you. Let's do this! 💪

I’m in our community forum every day. Come say hi. 🙂 Let's talk about your plans.
