Mr justwise, I do need your help sir. I made a quote on lionlee216 thread regarding his WhatsApp and I would like it deleted. Thank you.

Dannyko:
Lol,Canada is not heaven but I can assure you it's way better than Nigeria;I honestly have no regrets moving here.

All you needed to do was to edit your own post.

Ennyhorlar:

If money is the only thing required to leave the country, most of us would have left.

The requirement is too much

czaratwork:
They call it pay it forward. Sometimes the person ahead of you in the queue pays for your services and you pay for the services of the person behind you.

edoairways:
That is good. Am planning to relocate there, how is their weather over there?

Mogajunior:
One of the coldest after Russia. If u hate cold, stay away. But above all, Canada is a great country.

Crownbefitsme:

Some waiters are not smiling
Some of them will still collect money for the food they paid for

In which country apart from African countries can you work with a foreign certificate?

You cannot work with British medical degree in the USA. Even within US you have to pass state exams except where there is reciprocity to practice law.

The point here is not foreign degree, it is about well qualified African Canadians or African Americans that finished at Ivy league universities and found themselves jobless at the end of recruitment process by employers. Can you understand how hard it is to counsel them?

You guys must stop using lucky tokens as an example of success abroad. Indeed, it is one of the point of contentions between Africans and African Americans. If they are well qualified, how could children of foreigners find professional jobs in positions their fathers and mothers died for?

RaptorX:
Your friend is telling the truth, let this people be living in their imaginary fantasy Canada land where it is all flowers and candies.

salford1:

Definitely not all Canadians are nice. It is erroneous to generalise based on a few occurences. All countries have good and bad people. I have met some really nasty Canadians. From my experience, people generally seem to be more friendlier in smaller Canadian cities. People in bigger cities tend to mind their own business and can often show a nasty behavior when you cross their personal space.

justwise:


Don't derail this thread with your negativity and Canada vs Nigeria nonsense, the op was telling a story of a kind gesture extend to him by a complete stranger in a foreign land and you are here talking about something else.

drnoel:


Don't mind those people attacking people making their own opinions known. Generalisation really doesn't fit in well in any situation. Anyone who is widely travelled and experienced should know that. What I see here are a few ground of people that just currently left the shores of Nigeria and everything around them is still glittering like gold. Anyways, their eyes will open soon.

salford1:

Dr. I just had to post the screenshot below as your username reminded me if an incident which is not even an isolated case. A Nigerian dr. Friend often experiences this as well from patients and nurses. This is just to show some of the things people or immigrants deal with from some "nice" Canadians in the workplace.

That's one of the reasons why I stated that there are good and bad people everywhere, unlike the eldorado some new immigrants and non-Canadians are passing across to others on this thread.

Lalaska:
So my wife and I took a few days off. It's pre thanksgiving and we decided to have lunch at a restaurant. We went with our 11 month old baby and sat beside a couple that were wrapping up their own lunch. They admired our beautiful baby and gave the usual compliments - "oh she's so cute", "How old is she" etc.
They left before us and when we concluded, asked for the bill. We received the shock of our lives when the waiter told us the couple had paid for our lunch, that they liked our baby. We were so surprised and didn't even have the opportunity to say thank you to them. These guys are super nice here and we indeed feel very grateful. Happy thanksgiving to all Canadians.

Stormyweather:
my lecturer shared a similar experience. They just moved to Canada and Needed to get a washing machine urgently, they found one that the price was really higher than their budget but felt they could beat it down. They Approached the young couple selling it and after bargaining, they paid and went to look for a truck to bring it Home. When they got Home, the wife opened the washing machine and saw an envelope with more than thrice the money they paid, there was a small Note there that read "we love your family and hope you settle in Soon, please do reach out if you need any assistance.". That was really touching. This happened over 10 years ago.

Nowenuse:


Exactly I need it to. I'll be moving there like next month to resume a job Pls you guys should tag me if something like that is done.
