—————About Canada Top to Bottom —————

Canada Top to Bottom is your go-to place for all things Canadian! Whether it’s actionable advice on how to move to Canada, deciding where to live in Canada, or things to know before immigrating to Canada, we’ve got you covered.

We (Charlie and Sharon - the people on the videos!) moved to Canada right in the middle of the Covid-19 pandemic through the Federal Skilled Worker Express Entry system, so we’ve been through the immigration process ourselves and - thanks to a global pandemic - our moving process took longer than expected and presented far more challenges than we’d hoped for! We now want to pass on our knowledge about Canadian immigration, and tell you everything you’ve ever wanted to know about life in Canada.

We both grew up in England (Charlie in Lancashire, Sharon is Shropshire) and have since lived in France, Austria and Malta. We're passionate skiers, climbers, hikers and bikers, so - after much debate - we decided to settle in British Columbia because of its fabulous geography. We're planning to explore as much of Canada as possible (it's a big place!) so stay tuned for videos from different provinces as we travel through our adopted country.
