What is the legal age to drink alcohol in Canada, and to go clubbing?


And do you have to be 21 to live and work, even temporaily, in the country?

Links would be useful.
Thanks

Drinking age is 19 in all provinces except Quebec, Manitoba and Alberta, where it's 18.

Other than drinking alcohol in those seven provinces, there is nothing you can't do at 18 that you can do at 21. The working age is 16, but I don't know if a 16-year-old would be allowed in the country on her/his own, other than to go to school.

16 or 18

Most provinces you have to be 19 to legally drink and go into clubs and to work, even part time you must be 16.

Most provinces the legal age is 18, some are 19.
I think as long as you are able to get a work visa, you should be able to work. There are lots of jobs. More jobs than people to work them.

19 to drink
16 to work

You need to be 16 to be able to work in Canada, here's a link that may help you out

The age to be able to drink is 16-19 depending on which province your in.

19 to drink and buy smokes and go clubbing.
18 or graduated high school for a drivers license

Ontario=
I got my 1st official job working at Yogen Fruz when I was 15
My 1st alcoholic beverage 19 (legally) or I went to Quebec at 18 and was able to buy alcohol there.

Clubbing depends, in Toronto they have certain clubs on certain nights where 16+ are allowed to enter, usually it is 18 or 19 if they serve alcohol check with the club.

You can be 18 or older to get a visa if that is what your asking to live and work in Canada, however you can't just get a visa there is a very long process to do so unless a family member sponsors you.
