Hello! I'm new to the forums but I found some advice given here by regular posters has been great so I figured I'd give it a shot.
Here goes;
I'm in my mid 20s and seperated from a hugely abusive and controlling man. Its been over a year since moving back with my parents (to sleep on their couch to be safe from anymore harm from the ex) last year around October or so I met someone wonderful, and while I'm moving for myself I find it ironic that this gentleman lives 3 hours from where im wanting to move in canada from oregon.
Back to my question I suppose.
Has anyone been through the us to canada move that has some sound advice on my move? Ive looked into work and areas I wish to live but an getting no where when I look through the immigration pages.
Help?
Just throwing the line out ill try to clarify my story bettrr once I see a few responses I suppose. Thank you.

Also; looks like it takes ~24 months to process applications.
In reality, it's hard to get into Canada to live/work. We'll love you for a visit but staying permanently you and MILLIONS of others want to come.
Luckily, most of the information is online about who (the questions above). Stick to http://www.cic.gc.ca for the official information and if you need to, contact them (Contact Us link is right in the middle of every page). Here's a couple of the pages

You should also be aware of specific provincial nominee programs. I'm not sure if all provinces have them, but the idea is that they sponsor people with skills that are needed in a particular province.
