This was surprisingly modest in cost and we had the benefit of our belongings arriving with us and being able to pick them up the next day. But this method only works if you have only a few boxes. DIY or hire packers? Household goods moving companies make most of their profits on two parts of the process: Packing and insurance. Which is why, of course, their salespeople push you to pay for both if you are shipping your belongings with a sea container. And they can sometimes tell you that you can't get insurance unless their staff pack the container (not true! ) From my experience, you can pack the container yourself and skip the insurance, unless you have valuable and fragile antiques, for example.
This includes stronger professional and personal skillsets, deeper understanding of differences in cultures, belief systems, and values, and personal growth that is "off the charts" compared to what they could have gained by living in Canada all their life. In other words, life in Arabia changes you, just like it would going to any region of the world that lives life differently from Canada. These changes are both a positive in that you have become a "larger" and "deeper" person and at the same time a challenge in that you have most likely outgrown much of the life you had in Canada before you left. This is an important point to consider. You cannot go back to who you were...
Generally, government systems, processes, and the overall rule-of-law works in Canada.

Canada is still the country most people in the world want to emigrate to. Low "power distance" in Canada. The reality of much of the world includes substantial "power distance" and strong social hierarchies despite the amazing progress that has happened since the Internet and mobile phones have begun to flatten the extreme disparities in many places in the world. Canada has always been a country with a more flat power distance than most others.
Key differences include how you access health care, how procedures are handled and paid for, how medication is accessed and paid for, and the general philosophy towards health care. The central concern Canadians moving back already know about is the 3 month waiting period that is required in several provinces, including BC, ON, and QC. This is generally an easy problem to solve: Most people pay for a "visitor to Canada" health insurance plan from Blue Cross or CAA/BCAA. These plans cover returning Canadians as well as visitors.
And it is not just the big things: The general pace of life in Canada is slower and most things take more time than in much of Arabia. Caveat: The internet is allowing people everywhere to do things quickly and without bureaucracy slowing them down. From banking online to managing our government interactions, Canada and much of Arabia are both more and more "online". Yeah! Keeping up.

While many Canadian nurses and doctors work in Arabia, they do so in systems that operate with principles and practices that are "westernized", "local" or a mix of the two.

From the stories I have heard in recent years and personally witnessed I cannot underestimate the importance of preparing your teenager ahead of time for life on their own.
Whether your children are attending a British, American, or an International public school in Arabia, the stakes are pretty low in terms of grades and adjustment when moving them to Canada. They are young enough to transition easily. Social adjustment is the central question you generally work with.
