Thanks for the confirmation. I think I was generally under that impression, I was more saying that I am leaning towards theoretical in general, with the hopes that (theoretical) astrophysics works out for me.
The prospect of getting neck-deep in this field is both exciting and daunting.
I don't need to stay in Canada necessarily - though I do like my country! My main concerns about US education is the cost. Additionally I have a partner who would need to find work wherever I end up, which seems like going across the border might become even more complicated.

Phd seems like a good goal to set - I want to aim as high as I can so I can ensure the groundwork is set to open doors for me.
I am absolutely not...
I am doing a bit if a career shift and am looking to study physics at university. My initial feeling is astrophysics or theoretical physics. I am also planning to take this to Phd if I can.
I am presently working on the high school pre-requisites that I need but I've encountered a bit of a...
