Today, I’ll be chatting with Michael Barton who is a Regional Director at Invest Northern Ireland where he promotes Northern Ireland Trade and Investment opportunities here in Canada. Born in Antrim but reared in Greystones, County Wicklow, Michael and his then partner-now wife moved to Toronto in 2012 and haven’t looked back since. Michael speaks about their willingness to seek adventure in Canada as well as the difficulties getting settled in.
They are raising their three year old son, Hudson, in the city and Michael speaks very honestly and positively about raising a child in such an urban environment, a typical issue for many an Irish emigrant in Toronto. This is a conversation typical of this podcast, loaded with very real, practical elements about what it means to be an Irish expat in Toronto, from finding work to changing careers to raising a family to maintaining strong bonds with home.
I would still encourage people to download the episodes and to share them with friends and family. Downloads are the easiest indicator for me to gauge how many people I am reaching with these conversations so I would really appreciate it.
