"highly skilled I lack a university degree which in my experience has made it almost impossible, despite trying."

I'm in the same boat, highly skilled and lack a university degree. I left for ~8 years and came back.

The TN visa program has many qualifying jobs that dont require uni degrees.

It was VERY easy.. apply for US job, take US Job offer to the boarder, pay like $35 and get a TN stamp in my passport. Use this to get a Social security number, bank account, etc.

I'm STRONGLY advising all my kids leave. The taxes and how you are treated in Canada is shitty.

Try finding a Doctor here, or sign up for any programs. 6 month wait lists, overbooked, overcrowding... This country LOVES to make promises to get your votes, takes your tax dollars to pay for it, but fails to deliver when you need the services you paid for?

Get a decent job, they will provide good coverage and you can see a doctor next-day.
