The public library is a treasure trove of information. Many university libraries will issue a community user card for a nominal annual fee. After you have a grasp of key issues and trends you may want to get the perspective of people who are active in the field.

Go Where the Action Is. Many Canadian cities are becoming global in population and perspective as people with diverse linguistic, national, and cultural backgrounds converge to live and work. Living in these locales can help you acquire cross-cultural competence and find work in fields such as business, cultural exchange, and health and human services with a focus on certain regions of the world. All major cities have world trade centers which support international commerce, as do some mid-sized and smaller cities. If you're interested in the Asian Pacific Rim, for example, a job with a multinational organization in Vancouver may be a good starting point.
