Is It True Campus Life Is Boring In Canada ? by Dollywood(m): 2:58pm On May 30, 2020
I get numerous complaints that Campus life in Canada is boring in addition to the intense cold there makes things depressing, how true is this? I also heard it is hard to make friends to have fun together unlike here in Nigeria where almost all Campuses are fun filled and memorable. I intend to study in Canada after this whole pandemic. I'll need your advise.

Only boring if you want it to be. There are a lot of Nigerians in schools there to relate with. Also go for shared accommodation instead of living alone. Moreover you did not go to canada for fun

Saying Canada is boring is an understatement.

@OP, Canada as a whole is a very boring country compared to the USA. Yes! The cold is damn too much that's what alot of ignorant Young Nigerians don't understand. Most of your time will be spent indoors and the dating scene is very boring too because most Canadian nationals don't give a Fvck about u(immigrants).

My advice is just go there and experience it yourself then u will understand better all I said above.

Yes, it is boring especially if you go to a small school. Large schools like Uni of Waterloo or Uni of British Columbia are better because the more the people, the easier it is to find your match. It is not as boring for their citizens as it is for you because you have to remember that you're different. If a Canadian student comes to study in Nigeria, he or she would experience the same thing due to being different.

When it comes to the dating scene or generally having fun, always remember this: you are black, you are an immigrant, you are a man. These three factors do not ever work in your favor. Pay attention to the law so you do not get in trouble. The worst that can happen to you is for a white girl to accuse you of anything. Even if she lies against you, you still can't come out of it due to the three factors I mentioned. Your best bet is to always stay low-key and forget the fun. That's not why you came, it is not your country.

You're asking me how we cope with it? Now, tell me how you'll answer a Canadian if he/she asks you this: "How do you guys even cope with all the kidnapping, bad roads, malnutrition, fights, diseases, poor healthcare, no power supply, and unstable internet in Nigeria?"

The way you cope there is the way we cope here. Humans will always adapt. It's not like we have an option.

Campus life will be boring if you only make friends with Nigerians. Try and make friends with Canadians and other nationals and you will enjoy your time on campus.

It gets extremely cold in winter, but there are outdoor activities such as skiing and quading in the wilderness you can get into.This is why I encourage Nigerians to try make friends with Canadians and participate in the hobbies they engage in.

If any girl tells you no, just leave them alone!They are not playing hard to get.This is warning many Nigerians boys don't pay heed to and a few have ended up with court cases and got deported and permanently banned from Canada.

I pity some Nigerian parents, they don't know some of their sons only came to Canada to chase women,drink,smoke weed and choose not to focus on their studies. Many failed out of university and wasted all the money invested in them, that could otherwise have gone to buying land, property or a new car back home.

Are you going to campus for fun or to acquire knowledge?
Re: Is It True Campus Life Is Boring In Canada ? by GboyegaD(m): 1:04pm On Jun 01, 2020
It truly is if you want it to be. However, you can choose to be free and make friends without boundaries, get engaged, and you did be shocked it is much fun. You could make lunch friends that you go to lunch together with, watch movies with, travel with etc.
