I arrived to this big hall where they literally had hundreds of unemployed engineers crammed there. I was dubious but I had to go and see what it is all about. One day I saw this interesting ad: Engineers, Architects. I was scanning the papers every day looking for an opportunity.

with no engineering jobs around! I went to a very snazzy employment agency and they promised me to find a job – but it was all promises and nothing came out of it. But as usual not all plans work out! The job situation in Canada for engineers in this summer of 1970 was not good at all! Engineers were driving taxis, doing other all kind of jobs.

It was summer, the weather was good, I had good interesting friends and I was ready to find a good, satisfying job, buy a car and have fun. I have done a Master’s thesis in the use of Computer Graphics in Computer Aided Design – a project that I enjoyed immensely. I finished in only 9 months and I had a straight A average. When I had finished my Master’s degree at the University of Toronto, I was feeling at the top of the world. The roots of SolidCAM actually started when I immigrated to Israel from Canada.
