It’s what actually worked for me in Calgary.Broken down day by day so you don’t get lost in the first week:Day 1 — SIN, AHCIP, driver’s license, bank account: get the essentials done fastDay 2 — How to find housing without getting scammedDay 3 — Free resources for newcomers, library, healthcareDay 4 — How to actually find a job (spoiler: not just Indeed)Day 5 — Where to buy what you need for lessDay 6 — Buying and registering a carDay 7 — Check your budget and set a plan for the month ahead
