How would my wife be able to work in England?
I'm a dual US/UK citizen (born in the UK to British parents), now living in Florida. My wife has applied for a zoo-keeping job in the UK, but the employer says she'll need a work permit before they even consider her. Is it possible for her to get a work permit without a job offer or sponsorship? Is she at any kind of advantage being married to a UK citizen for three+ years?

If she has a Masters or PhD she can apply for the Tier 1 visa which does not require company sponsorship. http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/workingintheuk/tier1/general/eligibility/
2 :
If you are a UK citizen (i.e. hold a British Passport), she can apply for the Fiance Visa, which is much easier to obtain than the Tier 1 Visa. The Fiance Visa will allow her the unrestricted right to work and live in the UK (as long as she is married to you), but has to be renewed periodically. After 2 years of staying in the UK under the Fiance Visa, she can apply for Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) which will give her the permanent right to stay and work in the UK, and from there, citizenship. With both the Fiance Visa and Tier 1, she can get it before finding a job. However, applying for it while overseas might be a bit complicated.

Most common law countries give some credit for education and experience, but usually require some re-certification before the person can actually practice in the new jurisdiction. This may be a simple informal process, or it may be a bar-exam type test.
2 :
Canadian law is based on the British legal system, however, a lawyer (there are no solicitors in Canada) from England or any other Commonwealth country would have to take the bar examination before being allowed to practice law in Canada. I suspect before taking the exam an upgrade in Canadian law would be required.

You're kidding right? Is Canada a part of England?? What kind of soliciter are you if you can't see that there are differences between the laws of two different countries?

Can you work as Doctor in England with a degree from America
Can you work as Doctor in England with a degree from America?
I live in England but would like to study in America and possibly live out in America. However I would like the option to come back and work in England. Would I have to retrain with an English Degree or could I still work with an American Degree?

As long as you pass your finals, you should be ok, you will have to undertake various exams, and re-enrol with the GMC, but many doctors are from abroad and find it easy to slot in to GP work.

if i buy canon camera in america will it work in england
if i buy canon camera in america will it work in england?
it sounds a silly question but if i buy the canon powershot camera in america, will i be able to use it in england? the reason i ask this is because dvd's have different region codes so i was wondering about the cameras! i mean will the camera work with things that connect to it and stuff.. like if i bought a charger from england or anything that connects to the camera from england, will it all work together properly?

Yes. As long as you take a tape or DVD to use with you. You can't charge it there though unless you have a converter. Electrical sockets are different there.
2 :
You will need to check and see if the video feature has a NTSC and PAL option. Otherwise all you will have to do is supply the correct mains plug adapter from US to UK
3 :
As long as you have a charger for 220 voltage and the correct wall plug yes. I also agree with David that you'll need to record video in PAL to have it work correctly there if you plan to play back on a television. NTSC is the US standard, PAL in Europe and the UK. If your camera has the option to record in either you'll be fine. If it's only NTSC you'll have problems there.
4 :
But why buy it in the US if you live in England? The warranty will be good only in the US, so you would have to send it to the US for any repair. If you are living in the US and going to England for vacation or to live temporarily, then, of course it will work there! It just needs the converter for the charger.
