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.

In terms of resourcefullness, manpower and skills, Nigeria is ahead of Canada, man to man. Canada should be on the bottom list of countries Nigerians should go. Infact, until 15 or 20yrs ago Nigerians would turn down offer to migrate to Canada. So what changed, and now every fool wants to go to Canada? The influence of human traffickers/salesmen and Churches. These two factors have contributed massively to this point that Canada has earned high profile as a destination country.

The reality of harsh conditions in Canada is hidden. Blackman loves things that glitter. So when they see pictures of buildings and streets in their glittering lights, polished and gleaming they are instantly enamored, and begin to imagine themselves walking on that street, living in those homes and occupying a office desk in those skycrapers. So when a trafficker approaches with an offer to help with visa it is a easy sell.

Reality happen when they are taken from airport to a refugee tent like this one.

Those who are lucky to get work visa are no better. They must pay rent, pay for electricity, pay for heating, pay for water, pay parking, pay trash collection. Goes to store to purchase food and must pay tax on top. Pay tax on income, pay toll tax, pay car registration tax, inspection tax...and upon all this lives in a neighborhood opposite of the glamor and glitter of Canada in pictures. He works in the skyscraper buildings but in security uniform.

Canada is a very big country, almost half the size of Africa, if not more. Yet, they have less than five metropolitan cities. Vancouver, Ontario, Quebec, Toronto. Thats it! It is wrong to say Canada is cold. Canada is frigid! Six months of the year you will be in thick socks and boots, jackets and gloves. Streets are deserted. Dark even at 3:30pm because Sun will set at about 3pm. Everyone stays off the streets, so then loneliness sets in.

Those caught up in the ugliness of this drama are too dissapointed and ashamed to own up and say they wished they had stayed the fck out of this desolate land. If they dont cry, others dont know not to go in.

Canada needs to boost economy, it is using migration to uplift labor lifestyle for its citizens and also keep a high population of taxable earners.

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)

I won't argue with you any further. But you have a very wrong view about Canada. cool
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 cheesy cheesy

Okay, I am a Canadian. I can't speak for this "shelter" if you even want to call it that. I think for sure this particular situation is very isolated. I've never seen a shelter like this anywhere and in fact haven't heard about this death either. Mississauga is literally 3 hours from me. I am sure there has to be some underlying issue going on here that isn't being told.

Anyone coming under the Asylum laws here do not live in tents. They are given government funded apartments and housing... not in tents. Also, when coming into Canada under this law if there are no government housing available the Government pays for hotel rooms. This is exactly what happened with those who came from Ukraine and now from West Bank/Gaza.

Per the cold... this isn't cold. It's cold to you, not cold to us Canadians. Wait for the real cold -25C plus wind chill which makes it feel like -40C. THAT'S cold. Single digits above zero is not cold. I'd really like to find out the whole story why people are in tents... that's not normal.

I just checked news here... so there's a massive move of people to Canada... Shelters are beyond capacity by 300%. Government is in process to bring a solution to this problem.

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 cheesy


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 angry

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.

"We know what happened can happen because it did happen." The video isn't fake. Those guys are having a real bad time in Canada. Many Africans have been misled into thinking that the streets of Canada and other Western countries are paved with gold. It's only when they get there that they're faced with the stark realities of life as depicted in the video. I understand your patriotism, but fact is the video is real and those Africans are in real mess. May God save them from the cold temperatures they have never experienced before, not even in their weirdest imaginations.


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.

Context here would be great to look at what is happening.

Idgaf about patriotism. I know I live in a privileged country, I didn't get to choose where I was born, just like you. I'm very thankful to be in this country, but kid you not, I've lived in other countries and been to many poverty riddled countries. I'm helping friends in Ng to immigrate for work, but this issue is Asylum seekers, not going through the immigration avenues. Different altogether.

Have to look at the facts here... there is an absurd number of people seeking Asylum in Canada and they were just not ready for the numbers. Government is moving to solve it as quickly as possible. Already busses have come to move people to other shelters where there is more room. Naturally most Asylum seekers are looking at Toronto and surrounding as yes, it's pushed as the place with so much opportunity... and this is true for most. The Canadian job market is begging for skilled workers... we're extremely short... so come with the right skill sets, yes, you will find a good job at a good rate of pay, but come and look for a job at a coffee shop... well... different story.

Canada is a small country with massive land mass. Canada's economy is not booming like that of US, UK, Germany, etc. Canada doesn't have enough skill jobs that is why they demand for so much including Canada experience and all that because if they have more than enough jobs like the states, UK, etc, their employers will waive some freaking requirements they ask from skilled migrants who spent a fortune to enter Canada via express entry, etc.



So please before you decide to relocate to Canada, bear in mind that it will take you some years to gather all the useless Canada experience and other requirements to secure a befitting skilled job in Canada.


People mistake Canada as paradise but unfortunately Canada is just another UK. You complain of income tax in UK, are you aware that consumer tax in some Canada province will make you broke despite what you earn? Imagine paying as much as 30% VAT on whatever you buy after collecting your so called salary or wage?



If you are young, have big financial dreams and want to succeed big financially through migration, please find way migrate to US legally. You are better off in Poland, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Belgium than in Canada.



Canada is overrated. There is no much economic activities going on there and most part have harsh weather condition.


The only good thing about Canada is easy route to PR if you entered legally, aside that, UK = Canada. In fact, UK is far better than Canada when it comes to ease of securing a job, you will secure a job faster in UK than in Canada that have a struggling economy. Ask yourself, what and what does Canada produce and export to the world? Canadian government is hyping Canada with so much fund to attract immigrants to come into Canada with huge money to help Canada economy grow in maybe 100 years from now.



Don't mistake Canada as a nation with booming economy and so many high paying skilled jobs, you will be disappointed.



Canadian government is trying to build Canada's economy by collecting money from skilled migrants and students, they are trying to replicate US DV lottery thinking it would build their country's economy but they cant because they dont have the intellects and technology experts to do what US did.




US is a magical, wonderful nation, the best country on earth. The country where you can pick money on the floor if you are ready to put in the work.



May God continue to bless America

In Australia, you can also pick money from the ground

If you think Canada is going to leave people in those temperatures in a tent, you are gravely mistaken. After reading the news here on the story (as I'd not heard about it until seeing it here), there has been a massive number of people seeking Asylum all at once. A large number from African countries (Nigeria being the biggest number). Temperatures here currently have not gone below zero yet. The moment we do I can guarantee there won't be anyone in a tent. If Canada let's that happen I'll be the FIRST to admit that the government here (in Canada) is not doing what they are supposed to, but I assure you, this really shouldn't happen.

This thread is extremely misleading. Travel via legitimate routes and you'll never need to be in this situation.

Video of a shelter some Nigerians are living in at Mississauga in Canada goes viral.

In the video shared online, it was stated that it was in same shelter a young Nigerian died weeks ago. A Pastor who spoke in the video, noted that some Nigerians live in the shelter while waiting for an update on their asylum request to Canadian authorities.
Atleast no one will use them for ritual or mine their skull here.... Security here is better than Nigeria.
