[azaman]

Hi Qorax,

1) You said teachers have less opportunities than others. what about researchers? if i want to try for a research fellowship/jobs in social science (islamism and militancy research to be specific) in which i have experience, education and training?

2) what about going for a phd research in the Uni? will i have to finance myself or there are financial support for that?

3) and what about running a programme/business on 'healthy living' as a self-employed person. it's a fitness and healthy living programme i developed over the years out of my passion/interest. i am trained in australia and malaysia for that. also completed a certificate course in australia on healthy living. it is probably not a regulated profession in canada? how can i start it after arrival?

pls shed some light on the above issues.

thanks
