Jeezuz tap-dancing christ, when I had 300 hours I was spending my time rolling drums of fuel and carrying propane tanks and building docks instead of surfing the net feeling sorry for myself and it worked out for me.

when i was job hunting with 220 hrs, the internet was not the place it is now....you couldn't just go to some website and find a list of all the operators in canada, you had to do the leg work and research.
don't compare yourself to your friends in the US. If you really think you're not getting everything you could get, then head north, do a road trip and get out of the GTA! What you'll probably find is that most guys would kill to have the job you have right now, and you should feel pretty lucky that this company is sticking their neck out to employ you. They don't usually hire low timers such as yourself, so appreciate the opportunity you have been given, and as I have said before, work hard, show them you really want to be there, and you will get your chance. If you keep whining and wondering what better is out there, they'll probably get the vibe, and you'll shoot yourself in the foot and get stuck in dipatch.
