Could I go for a while to get out of this heat??
it is hot there in summer time, running a saw at +30C takes more water for surveyor than gas for chainsaw, but winter is more refreshing -30-40C, but running that saw makes you sweat probably the same because of tons of closing you have to put on 🙂
(in Alberta surveying equals chainsaw + RTK)

It took more than 3 years since I applied to the day I got immigration visa to canada.
