I was reading Quora, an information sharing site today and I stumbled upon a thread. I decided to take snapshots of the thread so you can read it. Someone had posted a question and a Canadian woman responded.

Take note of the number of LIKES her response garnered. Please also take note of what she said. Also, note that things are about to change due to the Covid-19 pandemic and the impact it has had on jobs.

The Canadian woman mentioned that Canada lost 1 million jobs in March of this year alone. Please note that just like the USA, Canada might drastically cut down on work permit visas and even PR visas if they think there are not enough jobs to go around for their own citizens talkless of jobs for recent migrants.

I am not here to discourage anyone. I am here to tell you the situation on ground.

One year leave when you haven't even worked for 2months? Which company gives you that?

Dlemy:
I have read all the post, the question is
1. What are the Immigration programs for families currently?

2. How do I apply please?

3. What are the steps or processes?

MissLucyO:
Hi nairalanders, please I need help. I’m a 25 year old graduate from unilag, i finished with a 3rd class in botany, do I have chances of furthering my education in Canada? If yes please what course do you suggest?

Ashirioluwa:


That is not true.

Chicago213:


Lol all what I hear from you guys over there is "I have a friend" I know someone" why don't you give first hand information from your own experience I'm talking from my own experience here as a Nigerian!!! Those of us here(Nigerians) hardly tell the truth but prefer to live fake lives to make it seem all is well...

A plumber charged me £48 for a minute job. I was gobsmacked when he said he charged someone £120 to fix his clogged toilet. Plumbers dey make mad money.

this is not true. The job many pr holders from Nigerians are using to hold body before their dream job comes is customer care agent not factory. Factory work is too hard abeg. Na students and assylum seekers dey do am pass. Customer care is easy to get so why enter factory to suffer

Quick question
Is it true that, to get a white collar job in Canada, you need to get a degree there?

ednut1:
false, most times your experience is the key, i know many working with Nigerian degrees and there are some with Canadian degrees that can't get work in their fields

It is obvious you're just a hungry blogger who feels writing rubbish will make you special.

Canada is the land of milk and honey with the most polite people on earth.

My friend who got there 4 months ago has changed 3 jobs, she works online, already has her own apartment and can fend for herself fully. Last month she had her baby and the government is already paying her for having a baby with 1 year leave.

Do not compare Nigerian carpenters, plumbers, electricians to the one in Canada. Those guys are rich.
