Anna: You do not need to find a job first, what you do need to do is actually come here in person and start looking, otherwise ur going to be missing out on many great opportunities. Very few companies are willing to call internationally to recruit someone who is still considered a fresh graduate. Come out here and look hard. Finding work now is getting easier and better than it was in the past 6 months, but it will take time. If you have any further questions, PM me, i may be able to help more.

Chris King: There is a bunch of Canadian schools here associated with Aldar (which is a major development company), there are also american schools as well such as the American Community School. All schools are private (Govt schools teach only arabic and available exclusively to citizens with some minor exceptions)
How old are your girls? women here in general are treated fairly well, they have their own lines and waiting areas in banks and hospitals, police tend to be extra nice with women. As for your daughters, id say that theyd be treated the same way as they would be in Canada; there isnt that much discrimination or sexism really (And i have 3 sisters id never hear the end of it if sexism was bad here)

Hi everyone,

I just came to Dubai 2 weeks ago and am glad to see this forum. My family is back in Mississauga as we need lot of papers to process their visas and we came from Florida after living there for 4 years, so everything is in mess.

Anyway, I would love to connect to Canadians here in UAE. Today being Eid day I ventured going to Sharjah up to Rolla and creek side. LOT OF PEOPLE OUT THERE. Next time I am planning to go to Ajman/RAK/Khorfakkan. My cell phone number is 050-1761642. I am right now in Deira near Al Ghurair City. Hope to connect with you all soon.

Thanks,
Sona
