It's the same in sc, sandra:
right-to-hire, right-to-fire state. I get
6 weeks unless there's a medical reason to
get more. And I only get paid if i'm
eligible for short-term disability, which
i'm eligible for at my 2-year mark (which
just happens to be a month after he's
due). So it's kind of complicated for
me... But i'm probably quitting, anyway.

Ya I count my lucky stars sometimes to
live here. Great maternity leave, free
medical care and kids from 0-25 get free
prescription medication as long as their
in school.
6 weeks is ridiculous, you're just
starting to recuperate.

I'm probably quitting, like I said. I'm
looking for telecommuting stuff right now,
but my bf says it will be ok if I don't
find something right away. My bosses
don't know i'm leaving... I don't want
them to know for fear they decide not to
let me stick around. I want to be able to
get whatever vacation and sick time pay
i've got left.

I lived in toronto for 6 months and I
would never do that again. Montreal is
just the place to be!..Thats just my
opinion anyway. But here we now are the
only province in canada that offers 70% of
your salary for the first 18 weeks of mat
leave and for the remianing 32 its 55% of
your salary we def . Are lucky!

word for word, ya that's it. :-) i'm
happy to have grown up with 2 languages.
My son is in french daycare so that he can
learn early on too, but it's funny cause
he now calls his dad papa instead of
dada like he was doing. Lol my smart 10
month old!! Lol

Lalee, if you can afford it stay at home,
your kids need you more! If you decide
you want to work later just get you a
little part time job while your husband is
at home, then he can see what you get to
put up with, that way you get a little
space too or take a couple of classes.
But the main thing is is to do what makes
you happy!
The best to you and yours!
