THE GREAT CANADIAN DREAM (FEB 2010)




Never came into my mind that I have an opportunity not just to visit but to work in Canada.Honestly, before i really don't have idea about Canada because most of us Filipino's are more familiar with the United States of America.You may or may not agree with me but it's true that we Filipino's have dreams someday to come to U.S to pursue the what we call " The Great  American Dream". Before i will start my journey to Canada let me tell about a little information about this country. 

Canada is a North American country consisting of 10 provinces and 3 territories.Located in the northern part of the continent, it extends from the Atlantic to the Pacific and northward into the Arctic Ocean. Canada is the world's second largest country by total area and its common border with the United States of America.
In turn, these may be grouped into 4 main regions: Western Canada, Central Canada,Atlantic Canada, and Northern Canada("Eastern Canada" refers to Central Canada and Atlantic Canada together).
Ottawa is the capital city while Toronto is the largest city both located in Ontario province. Canada's two official languages are Canadian English and Canadian French.
