Any Canadian physicists on here? I'm taking engineering (1st year), but next year I want to switch to physics. I realize that a job in academia is pretty unrealistic given the amount of competition, but if I were to get a Ph.D. in physics, are the job prospects for physics decent in Canada?
My dream would be the work at a national lab such as Perimeter, Triumf or SNOLAB. Is this a reasonable goal? I'd hate to get a Ph.D. in physics only to become a programmer (not that there's anything wrong with that, but I could just get a BS in computer science). Thanks in advance!
