Just what the question asks. I'm going to college next year and I'm thinking of double majoring in political science and social working, and minoring in Arabic maybe. I know social work jobs are generally really low-paying, so I'm looking for a job where I could use both subjects and get enough money to pay off my loans.

My mrs and myself are both qualified, registered British nurses. She works in critical care and i work in mental health. I have obviously searched online for jobs but Canada is so big that it is proving impossible to narrow it down to one area. We like British Columbia but again, it is so big we don't know where to start. We would appreciate any help. Thank you in advance.

I'm hoping to find a decent business job in this crappy economy. After debating (with myself) whether I'd pursue a generic business degree which comes highly recommended both by peers and most career sites I've been on or go bold with a much-harder Economics degree, I finally decided to go with the latter. Exactly what kind of jobs could I land with an Economics degree? Is it even advisable to pursue it?
