Nope. You could use a step-up transformer, but the performance is never the same. Don't bring any appliances , they are not expensive here. |

Dear Qorax,
When I bring in POF should I bring the full required amount in DD/TC form, or If I take a part of it in DD and rest in cash, will it be a prob at the POE offices of immigration/customs, kindly advice..
Thanks a lot
Replied to your PM as well... Be free to carry your [required] POF in any format -- no issues there. Qorax |

Besides, your AV eqpt won't work as well... the NTSC-PAL format issue would play a spoil-sport !Qorax |

The TV also needs to be equipped with an ATSC tuner for off air reception (unless you are buying a conversion box). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATSC_tunerNTSC = Never Twice the Same Colour PAL images are better, but with HD who cares  |

I don't agree. Appliances you find at home doesn't mean you can also find in Canada (especially in smaller cities). |

Dear Friends, To all the aspiring members and to all those who have already landed, kindly go through the site below. I have always followed this site and it is quite informative too, something similar to this one . Also look and interact with a guy called Nabil, he is quite informative and helpful. http://www.immigrationexpertise.com/2009/06/spring-in-canada-video.html Best Regards and keep up your motivation. This domain has changed to http://www.immigrationexperience.ca/ Unfortunately I lost the domain and I had to buy a new one. |

Online shopping ?? I agree. Sometimes online shopping (especially those in your home country) can be much cheaper than Canadian retailers. Yesterday I saw a Halloween toy and the retail price in Canada is $11.99, while price in US is just $6.99. So much cheaper! |

I haven't lived in Toronto for a long while. But in Vancouver, I can't find similar size slow simmer/stew cooker, so I brought one with transformer from my previous country of residence. The overall performance is the same. |
