   Bankruptcy is an option - not a very good one tho!   
      
   What is predictable in Canada is the seasonal nature of work in general (don't   
   wait for spring -   
   do it now, etc) and the fact that there are too many junior pilots looking for   
   too few positions   
   (worldwide).  Canada and the US have thousands of commercial pilots who would   
   not leave their   
   current occupation to enter the aviation industry.  Many obtained the licences   
   so they could   
   follow their hobby and get "free" flying for their efforts - or simply wanted   
   a status symbol at   
   the local flying school.  A junior pilot has to compete with pilots who are   
   more than happy to   
   work for no pay.  When you understand this, you will be a lot further ahead!   
      
   I would have hoped that the above points might have been included in your   
   calculations when   
   budgeting for how you might service the debts that you have incurred.   
      
   With just an average IQ, I chose (in Canada) to work hard, *then* spent that   
   money on receiving   
   flight instruction.  At one stage I worked for Ontario Steel (bloody hard   
   work).  Mon-Fri = 12   
   hours;  Sat - 10 hours;  Sun - 7 hours - then changed shifts from day to night   
   etc - BIG MONEY!.   
     In any case, I'm sure you get the picture - spring will be along in due   
   course so get off your   
   arse and do something about you problem yourself.   
      
   You obviously chose the wrong industry to get into debt with.  We all suffer   
   from errors of   
   judgement from time to time - and we all have to pay for those mistakes.   
      
   Cheers......
