You are in the wrong area,Try restating this question in the housing thread,But  since you are here,food costs in Alberta are not that far from BC prices,Do you mean Groceries?Depends on what you eat,If you are going to live of Macaroni and Cheese and Instant noodles,you will get by with 5$ a day,A diet with lower grade meats and vegetables would bring you up to 50-60$ a week,Mc Donalds eating out will be about 5$ for a meal,A cafe type meal will go higher,So be more specific

Dear BcGuy, God Bless you .

i m First time  doing courage to write you  to this  hope that  you will help me. Basically my problem isthat  i m a computer software  programmer by profession, and  havinfg MSC. Degree in Computer science.  I have already applied for canada immigartion under the Skilled worker catergory. my application is under the process may be it will take two or more years . But Mr. Cohen and other immigrations services told me it will become more speedy if some one get the job either temporay or permanat in canada , the rest of the procedure will become more fast.

I applied all my efforts in searching of job in canada either temporary or permanant through website but the response is nill .There is a link and link of this site.

The only favour which i need from you can you tell me the address of  some agencies who hired the person livng out side the canada,

Currently i m residing in Kuwait and working as a software engineer.

Thanks and best regads
