I live in Saskatchewan AMA.
Tech industry will employ you with a high salary for the cost of living.
You can afford a house and a family and save for a cabin and boat, which is the cultural touchstone here.
Saskatchewan will grow. I'm bullish on our resource sector.
Immigrants to Canada are attracted here due to the low cost of a house. Living here and owning property now is a solid real estate bet for the future.
World leaders of uranium and potash are based here. Agriculture is strong here.
Saskatchewan is not a cosmopolitan urban center. It has deep rural roots everywhere. But I love it here. It is home.
- morkalork 3y agoAre you working remotely and have you successfully made one or more job transitions without losing your mind to stress? My deepest fear is moving out far somewhere, the remote job I do have going tits up for reasons I can't control and then realizing after 6 months of job hunting that I've made a huge mistake.
- nightowl_games 3y agoI work for an indie gaming startup that is based in Saskatoon but has no office. I've worked at 5 different tech places in ~11 years in the industry here. Getting a job as a programmer here is pretty easy, there's not a ton of options but there's a few success stories that are usually hiring. I know many people who work remote from here, Digital Ocean is a popular remote option.
