So what your saying is that I have a better shot at making it by first migrating to Sierra Leone then sailing to Canada on a bunch of popstickle sticks tied together with a dirty shoe lace? Great :/
So to be part of the union you need to first be Canadian.
Can you get work with out being part of the union? Like fairly substantial work?
What about smaller stuff even. I could work on some student projects to keep in the mind set I suppose - VFS shoots a good option? At the same time, that's what I've been doing here for a few years and I really want to step onto some paid gigs rather than just 'fed' gigs.
Are they're any Canadians here that can point me in the right direction?
Maybe an entertainment lawyer will guide you in the right direction, without having to ask for just opinions. Most lawyers offer a free initial consultation. It does not hurt to contact one. Here is a good one: http://www.arenaltman.com.
