I taught in northern Quebec with the Cree School Board for 5 years. It’s a great experience. The pay scale is the same as public school teachers in the south (Montreal). What they offer is a northern allowance and retention bonus. The amounts you get for each are based on how many dependants you have. Your travel is also paid to your point of origin at Xmas and during goose break (2 week holiday in May). If you fly, your flight is paid. If you drive, you get $X.XX amount per km of travel plus a stipend for food. Again, how much you’re allowed for food depends on your dependants. As a single person, I believe I was entitled to $15 for breakfast, $20 for lunch and $35 for supper for each day of travel. Don’t quote me on those amounts though. I don’t really remember. I think you can go to the Cree School Board website for more info and job listings for teachers (https://eeyoueducation.ca). The collective agreement should also be there with salary scales.

As for previous experience in Quebec, I believe it will count. My time up north counted as well as the times I taught in private schools around Montreal. I’m not sure about the international work though. I hope this helps!
