Need to determine which school you choose for your children cause it affect where you have to buy house or renting. You can check mls.ca for housing price.

我因—早預咗會回加拿大,比仔仔8歲開始去法國文化協會學Dbasic 法文, 所以現在他在校内不會太自卑。另外我哋從小已灌輸比佢知外國小D功課,並 more interesting learning. So his is fine and so looking forward to return to Canada.
It\'s not too late to do now, all the best to you.
If you still keep property in HK, you have to declare the flat in your next tax file to canafian government. Taxation office will only count income or property gain(2nd house sold with capital gain).
Thanks for your speedy replied. By the time we return to Toronto, my daughter should complete F.3 in HK. Is French a compulsory subject in public school? I'm afraid my girl can't catch up at that time.
