Any one used Ethiopian Airline? How is it?

Not bad for the price, Lagos to Ethiopia then Ethiopia to Ireland then Ireland to Toronto, then for me Toronto to Saskatchewan.

It was long but affordable. Since they are not a local carrier in Canada but they are cheap its best to use them to Toronto then pay for a local flight if you were going to Alberta or Vancouver for example.

In all I can recommend them

To all who have contributed, I am filled with so much gratitude for expirence you have selflessly poured out, God bless you all.
To call you Gurus, is an understatement, you are more that Gurus. Thank you once again.

I notice two thing by ready from the first page to the last that:
1. Not so much has been said about Winnipeg Manitoba as compared to other province. Could anyone please open up the needful as regards this province?

2. What is the prospect for an Agribusiness Consultant with about 14 years work experience, with a first Degree in Botany, Post Graduate In Crop Protection and MBA In Agribusiness (all degrees obtained in Nigeria)? Taking into perspective that Certification and work experience in Canada are prioritised over and above degrees not obtained in Canada?

3. Where would be the best province to settle as per job/business opportunities with someone in the Agricultural Sector?



Any good advice for the above question($)?
Thank you

Hello to my seniors and everyone on the group.

I am currently awaiting Copr and I need advise on landing especially getting a job.

I am a quantity surveyor usually known as construction estimator in Canada, about 8years work experience on various projects and PMP certified.

Please what are my chances of getting a job?
Where do you propose I can get good construction jobs?
I would also like to network with people in this field and perhaps join a whatsapp group for people landing.

Secondly, my wife is a dentist she also needs a mentor in her field too.

Thank you as you drop in you precious advise.

It is up to you. But if you can, try land before it gets deep in the winter to allow your children adjust gradually. However, if you are well dressed for the weather, you will cope.

Hi Guys, i found some very helpful Youtube videos (hope i'm not breaking a rule) by one Dr Lionel Laroche which is very informative on how we can settle in well once we arrive in Canada as new immigrants. The information is largely similar across the various videos but each one definitely has some learnings for us. I'm sure we can ask questions after watching the videos to our brothers and sisters already in Canada. Cheers!!

Nice videos.. But there is no absolute/definite guideline for settlement for immigrants, when you get there, with time you'll adjust properly.
Videos like this just assist you in understanding the whole process
