It’s been 5 years for me here and I honestly can say I have achieved nothing in my life yet. It scares me when I think I can’t return whatever my parents had invested in me. The fact is you’ll never have a good paying job in Canada being an immigrant. When I say this trust me I mean it. Most you’ll get is a minimum wage job which can make you survive the life here. Taxes are high definitely and what I feel is you’re working to make someone else’s life easier. \n(P.S: people who’ve stayed in Canada will understand who I’m implying to)\nNo one wants to be your freind, scope of socializing is zero coz mostly it’s cold round the year so everyone hardly come out, especially in Northern provinces like Yukon, Saskatchewan, Manitoba.\nHealthcare is a joke. If you feel sick and not well and you wanna see a doctor be prepared to wait for hours and hours. I once had stomach infection and I had to wait 5 hours till someone could see me. I asked for painkiller at-least so I could bear the pain but they refused that as well. You might well see someone you love dearly and with whole heart die in-front of you and you could do nothing. (I’ve experienced it myself hence saying)\nYou’re a lone survivor who’ll always keep fighting. \nThe only person who can make money here is businesses and high paid jobs which are reserved to Canadians. That’s how Canada’s job market is. Canadians’ first and if there’s something left they’ll look at you. By the amount of money people invest here they can establish a nice business back in their country itself and earn accordingly on own terms. \nMost importantly you’ll cut yourself from all emotional supports like family, freinds etc.\nI was social person back in India who liked making new freinds and memories but it’s nothing like that here. \nAnd it’s the same life, no different.\nYou wake up, dress, eat, go to work, come back, eat, sleep. No different.\nNo fun and nothing. You actually don’t live in present, you live in an expectation of a better tommorow.\nYou’ll always have a smile when you greet someone but I guarantee you no one’s gonna check on you to if you don’t start a conversation even with a simple “Hi”. Mostly Canadians are nice but again some will systematically judge you and say nothing but you’ll see in their actions, the way they’ll talk in a twisted way etc.\nYes I’m not saying that Canada’s bad or it’s no good but trust me it will take forever to build a life here especially with the number of people moving here from round the world. \nIf you’re well off financially from back home Canada’s a paradise for you. Indeed it’s a beautiful country with lots of beauty and lots to explore but remember everything comes with a cost here. Everything comes with a cost. People need to stop believing in this fake illusion and come only if they got a purpose here. The only reason why they’ll let you in the country is for money and once you’re in you’ll have to keep spending, doesn’t matter if you’re broke or whatever you have to.\nOnce I earn I’ll happily give up my PR status and go back to India as i very well know what the situation is how it’s gonna be in future.\nSo just one piece of advise to every middle class person like me, guys please invest and spend your money wisely coz we know how hard it is to earn and it’s high time Canadians start appreciating what immigrants like us do for them by burning ourselves day and night and start realizing that their past generation once came from some other part of the world as well and settled here. Being white doesn’t make you a nice Canadian, you’re actions defines you more than your words. \n90% of this country is built by immigrants and that’s how it’s gonna develop in future, so if they keep treating us the same way good luck to them ?.\nAlso a plus note to anyone thinking that Asians are stealing your jobs, go get outside and have the balls to face them and take it away from them. Staying home and ranting and abusing us that we’re taking your opportunities and blah blah isn’t gonna work. We are so successful round the world because we are hardworking, honest and respectful to everyone. Even if we’re earning minimum and barely surviving here we always make sure we’re not burden on the government or anyone else and won’t keep crying.\n\nA big shoutout to all you guys who came here in the hope of a better future but are still struggling.\nKeep hustling and you’ll reach there, if not step down and go back and start your life again on your home soil. There’s no shame in experimenting continuously rather than sitting ideally and crying about future. \n\nAll the very best my people and lots of love to you ❣️

HI Chokor, I really like your submissions.?\nHowever, I will excuse your level of knowledge about Europe as you have said that you have never lived in Europe.\n\nMy own submissions is that both Europe and U.S.A/ Canada has their goods and bads.\n\nFirstly, Europe pratice Socialist and Capitalist economy, meaning if you are working and fall on hard time due to recessions, or health challenges. \nEurope welfare systems will support you, until you are back on your feet, and if its terminal health challenges, the systems support you till death.\n \nPerhaps that is why European pathways to citizenship use to be so narrow, but its changing now,\nGermany has adopted, u.s.a type of Green card, currenty assylum seekers in Europe mostly received work permits after 9months.\n\nCritically, Europe still has more to learn from Canada in terms of integration and equal opportunities for immigrants.\n\nCritically, U.s.a and canada, systems are pure capitalist economy, If you are unlucky to fall on hard times, or health challenges, and if the person does not have full medicaid insurance, that person life is likely to be cut short. \nDue to lack of access to quality hospital care.\n\nEven, i watched it on CNN/CBS, how most medical insurances in U.s.a, and Canada ars refusing to cover persons with Diabetes.\n\nUsa and Canad has one of the worst homelessness in the developed world, most of them are not drug/alchohol addicts, rather persons with good works, and home owners who had fallen on hard times.\n\nConclusion, wherever God give us in abroad, one should just pray for mercies of God..?

video is right but the khalistan supporters jo canada beth ke propoganda kar rye he india ke khilaf nd india ko galt bolte he bahar jaker so ise kuj ni hoga so Canada ho ya India he sab indians hi raho jaha marji country me but apne bharat ko mat bhulo or galt na kaho ,nd i know ab ispe khalistani bhed chaal hi bolegi ? ?

Bro I haven't seen the video yet but I know the reason of migration.. you should change the title nd name it why Indians want to migrate to canada. Just look at gujratis nd maharastra ppl craze. They r not Punjabis .. nd one another thing your team need look around nd see .. muslims ko terrorist bna diya .. ab Sikhs ko khalistani bna rhe . If some ppl think k India sirf unka hi hai to they need to think twice about history... M not a khalistani supporter.. but saying we ll make India only a Hindu rastra is same a asking khalistan..

Safety pe justify na karo. Sidha CANADA hi Jao. Koyi tension Lena nahi, beshak Udhar Khalistani hai to kya huwa ? Aur Canadian government Khalistani saperatist movement ko support deti hai to kya huwa ?

Hi Lynn, this is a very interesting conversation. I moved to Canada in 2003 went to college and became a nurse. First of all it was not easy paying for college I was lucky that husband was supporting with the bills as I went to school. So I would say that I have skills that are very marketable. Our combined family income was over $100,000 CAN. We mortgaged our first home which was very basic for a LOT of money. We had our kids and we had to struggle with childcare as most young families do. By North American standard, we were doing good. We each had a good car ( loaned), we made trips to Kenya every so often but in 2016 we decided we wanted to move back home and we sold our home and we did. I HAVE NO REGRETS. There were several things that made us reach our decision. First, I truly believe that for the Canadian system to work as it does, it has to entrap its residents. Even after 10 years of work we did not have money in the bank. Everything we owned really belonged to the bank. The light bulb moment for me came when I evaluated my net worth. A primary school teacher in Kenya after 10 years of work with good financial management will own a plot, a simple house and will start to invest for retirement. After 10 years of work, there wasn't much in the account, our house would need 25 years to finish paying mortgage and to be honest there wasn't much to show for those years of work. Quality of life really sucks the amount of stress will definitely send you to the grave sooner. This is the case for most first generation immigrants. You might say you are sacrificing and building a future for your children but, my observation was since our diaspora children have not grown in Kenya to see the need for money and what life really looks like without the comforts they are used to, they do not have the same drive as the parents so they often do not excel they are just ordinary. There is also the struggle of growing up as a minority group. A lot of our children because they are seeking acceptance will struggle with self esteem, will have depression or will join the LGBTQ community where they get sense of belonging regardless of their colour. The morals are also different from their parents and they are shaped by the society they grow up in. When I looked at what my life would look like if we kept living there, lets say we eventually pay off our mortgage, when we are old and requiring care, our children will not be able to support themselves and support us because they have to work to sustain themselves so we would to move to assisted living or nursing homes. The cost of senior care is not covered by the government unless you have no money. so we have to sell out home which would be old and outdated but still very expensive and we would have to pay $5000-$10000 per month depending on the type of care we need. so as you can see if we ended in a nursing home for 5 years we will have depleted all the money we made from the sale of our home. So by the time we die, we would not have money to leave for our children. So we worked really hard, supported the economy, and die leaving not much at all for our children, we sacrificed our quality of life, and ended up with children who don't think much of themselves or have very distorted morals. I still remember in my mind as we drove to the airport on our way back to Kenya, I thought of the story of Lot. He was pretty successful in Sodom but I'm very sure on his death bed he had lots of regrets why he ever went there. I know its tough being in Kenya but if you have a job or any way to make ends meet, be like Abraham. God will bless you regardless of whether you are in the dessert.

Hi Lynn. First of, I would like to say that I'm such a huge fan of yours. Since you started at Tuko and still following to date. You are an inspiration to me and so many people out there. I love and respect what you stand for and your work. I completely resonate with everything you are about. Second, I've lived in Canada for over 30 years now. I am Eritrean and was born in Kenya. Moved to Canada when I was about 9 and have lived here since with my family. I have to say that for us, Canada has been a God Send. It has helped us in so many ways, and we are so grateful for the opportunities and life it has given my family. From health care to schooling and job opportunities. We also cane here in 1989. So times and cost of living was very different than it is now. Of course, times have changed now, and the economy and standard of living have too. There are pros and cons to everywhere we live in the world. Everyone is different and has different experiences. There are various factors that may affect everyone's perspectives and experiences when they come to Canada, whether it was a long time ago or recently. Some factors could be, weather, economy, feeling lonely ( no family), language barriers, support...etc. Change is not easy at all and can affect t your whole emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. Social life here is also not like it us back home...just alot of factors. People here work and work to make it. My mom brought us here as a single widowed mom. My sister and I were very young. But she was determined to give us a better life and worked her whole life, and it has paid off. It depends on how you look at everything and what your goal is. My mother was determined and made it happen and has raised us on her own very successfully. She loves Canada and appreciates it for everything it has done for us. Everyone's experiences are different. You have to do your research before coming and come with an open mind. Overall... Canada for us has been a blessing. \n\nI hope that helps somehow. But again, everyone's perspective and experiences are just as valid and rightfully so. \n\nI hope to meet you someday. Love you, Lynn, From Canada ?? ❤️

Hi there,\nThank you for a detailed info. \nQuestion: when asked how much money do you have to support urself while in canada, can a person select some one else as supporting and that person could be their child?

Maine Canada me eight years bitaye hain maine yahan padhai ki or phir software engineering ki job kr raha hoon canada ke karib har hisse me ghum chuka hun main toronto me rahta hu aur agar aap toronto gaye hain to apko malum hoga ki toronto kitna accha sheher hai wahan ke log kafi friendly aur liberal hain canada twenty first century ka hub hai. Shehero ki chamak itna khulapan yeh sab darasal second world war ke baad shuru hua apko malum hoga ki canada, ek tarah se british empire hai aur australia aur newzealand bhi hai inke queen elizabeth second hain. 1950 ke baad phir 1990 se in logo ne liberal way apnaya aur immigrant bulane lage aur dhire dhire canada ek immigrant hub bana, aaj ki date me yahan ki shayad 30 percent population immigrant hai main confirm nhi hoon abhi toh census chal rhe hain dekhte hain kya statics hai.\nMaine jo pichle eight years se dekha hai ki yahan ki yahan immigrant ke sath discrimination toh hota hi hai woh toh sabhi jaante hain lekin yahan ke jo angrez hai jo local hain wo ab hum logo ko shak ki nazar se dekhte hain kuch kahte nhi par jab aap agal bagal rahte ho toh samajh toh aata hai yeh log samajhte hain ki immigrants ya videshi jo bahar se aye hain unki population canada me majority ban jayegi aur gore angrez minority ban jayenge aur videshi inke desh par kabza kar lenge inhe yeh lagta hai aur jo majority minority effect hota hai jisme bahri log ya minorities ki population badh jati hai aur low birth rate ke karan majority population minority ban jati hai aur badi baat hai ki white supramacist groups jo hai woh local angrez logo ko yahi chiz samjha rahe hain ki videshi canada me majority ban jayenge aur gore angrez minority ban jayenge aur videshi inke desh par kabja kar lenge inhe yeh samjhaya jaa raha hai aur apni baat proof karne ke liye yeh log census dikhate hain dekhiye baat hai ki yahan canada me immigrant population toh badhi hai jinse yeh log jamkar fayeda uthate hain aur angrezo ki birth rate kam ho gayi hai ab kisi ne unki nasbandi toh ki nahi hai unki choice hai. Ab goverment bhi white supramacists ko indirectly support karti hai unhe nahi rokti white supramacist group ya militia kahen to jyaada sahi rahega ke liye fund ate hain inki funding hoti hai ab pichle kuch saalon se yeh log aggressive hote jaa rahe hai ab toh attacks shuru ho gaye murder kiya jaa rha hai. yeh puree canada ke yeh andar ke halat hain jo bahar se nahi dikhte ab yahan ka mahaul kharab ho raha hai aur koi bhi videshi main ya koi aur puri tarah safe nahi hai. Liberal canada ab radical banta ja raha hai. Maine yeh sab apni aankhon se dekha aur khud mehsus kiya hai.
