Vaa: Here is a link for year round average weather info for Nanaimo.
Another link for Edmonton.
Victoria and Nanaimo's cost of living is one of the highest in Canada, it's very rainy between December and March but they get next to no snow. Edmonton gets as low as -35 in the winter, the cost of living is lower and getting any kind of work there is as easy as making a phone call. We have offices in both locations, we are always look for experienced roofers, sales guys, estimators and/or supers.
Hi, A few years ago a local well established and reputable company's owner passed away. The business had been in operation in my prime market area for over 50 years. The deceased owner had no wife and only 1 son who lived in another state and was not a roofer. They decided to sell all the business assets and just let the business end. I checked with the phone company and they said i would have to catch up payments on his half page ad plus keep it current which would have cost me around $10,000 up front and $2,500 per month for several more months. Then they said if i waited about 4 more months until his advertising contract was up ( 1 yr to the day from the time of his contract ) that the very first caller asking for the phone number could get it for 20 bucks a month for as long as you want it. They open at 7 am and i started dialing about 6:50 am and was lucky enough to be first. I got a lot of work from it for about 6 months and then it started to dwindle down a little at a time. After about 2-3 years i let the number go as i was not getting any more calls from it. It would be a very good deal for someone who wanted to start their own business from scratch or you might be able to sell it to one of the larger companies in your area. Sorry about your injury. I don't know what we would do if something like that happened to me. :dry:
