It is important to put this in overall context, when people say japa, it means you either leave as a permanent resident or have a job already waiting in which case you get a work visa, if this proves to be hard, at least go through the student route which gives you a temporary legal stay and ability to work though with restricted number of hours. Visit visa no be japa o, I repeat visit visa isn't japa, do not have the notion of 'make I reach there first, i go rough am' with visit visa o, otherwise you might end up like this, better to dey rough am for Naija while you stack up for student route at least. 12 Likes 1 Share |

BabaRamota1980: Hmm... Let's start with cities: Ontario: Windsor, London, Toronto, Ottawa, Thunder Bay, Niagra Falls Quebec: Quebec City, Montreal Nova Scotia: Halifax --- This is just East Coast. Winter (is fvcking cold, 100%) is Dec, Jan, Feb. -- Yes, sun goes down earlier, but not until 4:45/5:00pm and that's only Winter months. We have Daylight Savings Time (DST) -- In spring goes ahead 1 hr and in the fall goes back 1 hr. This is to maximize daylight. Further north you go the less light you get. All the cities in Ontario the streets are not deserted... we've got 24/7 stores everywhere... not sure where you got that. Summer months it's light from 5:45am until 10:00pm (where I am). Despite your opinion and misinformation you've gathered... there are plenty of high paying jobs. Your comparison of Nigeria vs Canada... if your country was so superior... why are you still using fossil fuel to get power? Why are people still walking to water stations to get water and it not being delivered directly to every home? Why is your internet run through wireless towers and not fiber optics direct to every home? If it was so superior you would have all this already. Not trying to be mean, but this is the truth. This is the reality. It's your government that has failed you. Taxes... oi... yes... we are over taxed. 100% agree. 13% on all goods purchased. Taxed on your pay both Federal tax and Provincial tax. Property taxes and Fuel Taxes. These are all the main taxes you'll see. All these taxes go into developing infrastructure and our government actually does it, not pocket it for themselves. Vehicle registration: You pay to get your licence to drive. You Pay for your licence plate. That's it. Food taxes: ZERO (some categories of food are taxed ie; candy) 18 Likes 2 Shares |

Blackfire:Many Nigerians don't apply common sense when it comes to the issue of japa and they don't listen to reason. They would abuse or insult you for trying to make them see the danger of inadequate travelling arrangements. And many of them spend over 5 million naira, waste. 6 Likes |

Odogwuzack:Go and read the sound analysis someone I quoted on this thread wrote about Canada. Canadian government is good in hyping Canada as paradise to attract immigrants with money. Do you know that Canadian healthcare employers are so broke that they cant even sponsor foreign Doctors, Nurses and Healthcare professionals to come work in Canada despite the shortage of healthcare workers causing many Canadian hospitals and healthcare facilities to shutdown? You cannot say the same for UK talk more of USA. Canada hyped one program for Doctors and Nurses from some countries to come into Canada and work, they collected money in dollars from these foreign healthcare professionals to issue them license to come practice in Canada, after all the hype, they have issued many the license and guess what? No work for them and no Canadian employer is ready to sponsor the so called healthcare professionals they lied to that they are short of healthcare professionals and urgently need them to come and work in Canada, just to collect their money for license and other registration fees to fund Canadian government. US or UK can never try such without having thousands of employers waiting desperately to employ those foreign professionals. Even ordinary caregivers, UK employers are ready to sponsor them in their thousands from different countries of the world, that is how you know a rich nation with booming economy. Do you know how many foreign nurses, doctors, pharmacists, lab scientists, etc that UK healthcare employers sponsor on a monthly basis from different countries of the world without asking them to wait until they get UK experience? You know why? Because UK is rich and have a booming economy and rich employers that cannot even meet their workforce need, but Canada, hahahaha hungry employers struggling to remain in business due to struggling Canadian economy cannot afford to sponsor any foreign professional so they mask it with Canada experience 10 Likes |

PewpewS32:13% on all goods purchased. Some province tax more than 13% on purchased goods, I think Nova Scotia is 30% or more. Canada is overtaxed more than UK Nigerians scream about. Canada's economy is struggling. Canadian government is using immigration hype to deceive immigrants to come to Canada with the sole aim of collecting their moneys to fund Canada's struggling economy. m Many foreign nurses, doctors and other healthcare professionals are in Canada jobless or working in unskilled or none healthcare sectors due to low job opportunities in Canada, it can never happen in US, UK, Australia or some EU countries that a nurse will be jobless. Even Nurses waiting to write Nclex-rn or UK OSCE do get temporary nursing or nursing related jobs in US, UK pending when they pass the Nclex-rn or OSCE, but Canada hahahahahaha People are better off in some EU countries than Canada in my opinion, Canada is an overrated country being overhyped. How many billionaires have Canada produced? How many class A companies or conglomerates are headquartered in Canada or founded by Canadians? If not for foolish useless leaders in Nigeria, Canadians ought to be struggling for Nigerian visa because we should have been far better than Canada. We are more hardworking, more talented, more resilient, more focused, more endowed than Canadians, we only lack good leadership, sadly 21 Likes 1 Share |

tsdarkside: -I don't know what you want or why you're taking those asylum seekers situation personal. -Since 2015, many Nigerians have been "advised" by political touts here on Nairaland to leave Nigeria if they don't like the government. I think some people have now taken that great advice. -Faced with a rock and a hard place in Nigeria, people have decided to take their poison. So let them die in peace. Okay? 4 Likes 1 Share |

tsdarkside: Oga, save your advice. If Nigeria was working, nobody would leave this country. In short, it takes a lot of guts to leave one's own country in search of greener pastures. People didn't start relocating today, so your advice won't change a thing. For your information, there are by far more Nigerians who became successful because they relocated to the west than those who didn't make it there. What does that tell you? Guess what, there are by far poorer people in Nigeria than comfortable people. In fact, NBS data shows that over 60% of Nigerians live in multidimensional poverty (133 million people out of 220 million people). So, your advice amounts to nothing when your irresponsible government prefers to loot public wealth than improve the lots of its own people. 9 Likes 2 Shares |

ednut1: I almost fell victim of this. I paid an agent to process Visa for me to Canada sometimes in 2022. I paid part of my school fee and all his service charge to the tone of few millions. When I asked him some basic questions about accommodation, work and possible change in Visa status after my graduation. His answers weren't convincing and thanks to COVID that delayed the process. One morning, i told him to keep the money that I wasn't interested. God directed me to Australia without anyone's suggestion/input and I am so grateful that I made that choice. MOST of this agents have never left the shores of Africa and they don't know what's happening outside the continent. If you must leave the country, make sure you can answer the basic questions. 5 Likes |

mu2sa2: While the death of this individual is both sad and unfortunate, this appears to be a situation that the authorities can and will arrest very quickly. And they will do an autopsy to determine why this happened. I know this because I have seen it happen in my own neck of the woods. However, note that this is news. It is being reported in the media, and people are speaking out against the plight of these individuals. Now contrast that with Nigeria, where citizens face real existential catastrophes on a daily basis. People are dying as if dying were going out of fashion. A country with absolutely no social safety nets to catch the needy. Nigerians are dying in Nigeria because of very minor incidents. But we as a people are mute. We find our voice when someone else's ox is gored. Let's admit that Canada and the rest of the countries our people are flocking to in search of success are doing our people a great favor. They owe us nothing. As long as Nigerians do not finally stand up and demand an end to the mess that our national space has become, and enforce that change if necessary, the event in question will continue and definitely become commonplace with our people. Living in a difficult situation in Canada is still better than living in Nigeria. Your life is relatively safe and there is hope for a better tomorrow. Not so in Nigeria. 13 Likes 2 Shares |

N3TRAL: Exactly. "Nigeria can NEVER be good" Some idiots curse themselves. But they don't pay their taxes, they come to office twice a month when salary is being paid..., they ruthlessly fleece the system. They don't know as Yakassi, Adebola and Nnamdi are all doing these detrimental things to Nigeria, it all adds up to the general decay. Black men don't want to work to build their societies but want to go to White men's societies who worked hard to build them to what they are today. US and UK are where they are today because of responsible Leaders AND Followers. 12 Likes 2 Shares |
