I’m not in Canada but I’m looking forward to giving birth there. So I want the most affordable option available, from accommodation to birth centers.

Chat GPT 4.0 is amazing with the voice prompt and note ...it can even write software codes

I use it so much in detecting bugs in code. And to be honest, it helps.

I don't know there was a thread like this.

Well, I would like to share my little story. However, I am not sure it will apply to most people here since you will be coming from Nigeria to just solely give birth, but you can gain one or two from my experience.

My wife and I entered Canada this year as a student while my wife is on spousal open work permit.
She was 8months pregnant when we entered. You might be surprised. Firstly, the bump was not big, it looked like a 5-6months bump and we were able to maneuver the airport wahala.
Though, our intention initially was not to give birth in canada but in Nigeria. However, there was a twist.

The twist was that I was supposed to resume school by September but there was a PGWP policy which will affect me after study cos my school is listed among those the policy would affect. So, I reached out to the school and they gave me an option of resuming earlier which was May intake.

Naturally, birthing and anything medical is free for canadian residents that are working and paying taxes but we were not working then hence, we were not eligible and was treated like a visitor who is not entitled to OHIP which is the ontario health card.

When we arrived, we were on the race and pressure of birthing. We reached out to midwives, but they were all booked. People always book midwives in Canada like 5months before due date.

Note: Midwives services are free for anybody whether citizen or non-citizen or even temporary residents. Midwives are free for anyone of any status in Canada ( that shows how intentional canada is in giving free healthcare) and their services are excellent too. The only problem is that you can't access them immediately, you have to inform them like months before the due date. Infact people normally book them immediately after conception.

Initially, we planned on using my student health insurance for my wife to give birth but it didn't work out cos the conception was from outside canada.

We tried to contact several doctors to at least get a manageable fee to pay, we couldn't. We tried almost all Midwives and Doulas in Toronto.
After all search, we got hold of an organisation, they are more like charity organisation that works with some midwives and they assisted us by getting us a doctor for our antenatal and they also took care of like 90% of our hospital bills and even 2 weeks post natal. We paid just $650 for all these, it was honestly a huge relief as against the almost $10,000 we would have paid.

Our baby now has her own health card for free with no stress right from the day she was born.
But remember, this is something we would have normally been entitled to for free if we have been working and paying taxes.
And I must confess, canadian healthcare is just top notch and they treated us like a human being compared to how Nigeria healthcare treats one, its just horrible.

The only problem they have is their waiting time which doesn't really matter to me cos if there's any emergency (emergency is not until you break your leg or have accident o), you'll be attended to. To me, apart from emergency, I don't think there's any serious reason why one should be bothered about the waiting time.

God bless the Jews.

God bless Everyone

Botragelad:

These incidences took place before the Jews vowed 'never again'. Touch a single Israeli and you're finished!

Haha, we're thrilled about it! Just a few hours ago, it was a it was a big shot in Hezbollah(number 2), now it's Ismail in the heart of Iran.

You simply can't evade Israel. You can run as much as you like but the day the crosshair is on your head is your last day.🇮🇱

well, history disagrees. Israel has been invaded and even conquered multiple times at different moments.
I know you'll not believe me, but Muslims conquered Jerusalem twice at different moments.

Israel of today is just an American extension

Plus1234:
I told you DONT MESS WITH THE JEWS!

You mean the Jews that 6milion of them was wasted by just one person. Whooping 6milion.

The same Jews that their land was conquered severally by the Romans, Persians (Iran), Syria, Greek, Turkey and even Palestinians.

In short, everything isn't about religion. It's about current power and capability. It changes real quick. Israel's strength started just around 1950.
It's not even 100years yet. And trust me, the Unitdd states is really a blessing to them.

So stop being a slave. If Jews were anything special, 6milions of them would not be killed by one person's order and nothing was done. And they'll not be running helter-skelter to find a land to settle.

Any idea will be appreciated.

gabby18:
Since shes on a work permit, once she lands, she should immediately register for the MSI health card in that province. She ll be the main person and she ll register u the student and other kids if u have any as her dependents.
Its free to register since shes is on a work permit..with the health card, the govt covers most of the cost for the hspital bills..
Google it.. health card for work permit holders..

That what was a friend of mine did..

Thank you.
When I checked about it. They said it's for Nova Scotia

Abigbo:
Find out from the school about the type of insurance you are on and if u can add her to your insurance, then you pay the outstanding balance.
It should be much cheaper than paying wholly out of your pocket.

They got back to me informing me that my insurance will not cover it since the conception is before the start of myorogram. Please what do you suggest I do

ednut1:
as a student it will be hard getting such unless you are ready to pay like 6 months rent in advance. About 13k to 16k . Because you don’t have credit history or records of employment. Use facebook marketplace/ rentals.ca . Your best bet is basement.

Thanks

I need a studio apartment or one bed for couple in Toronto starting from May. Please kindly help

Please do you know if the child will be entitled to the monthly benefit after birth

I checked, it's fair, I'll top up some money. It's still better. I think I'll opt for that.
Thank you very much

So how does this your long irrelevant jargon change the fact that Igbos are also seeking out new opportunities because of high competition at home?

Is Igboland empty?…….halfsmart dimwit

I'm telling you that they're seeking out opportunities in a better environment. Not just seeking out opportunities.

itsIYKE:
Yes because it rubbishes your stupid narrative

If you're educated or intelligent, you'll know that China and India singly has population higher than the whole of Africa continent..
The number of Chinese in Nigeria cannot even be up to 20,000. Now check the percentage of 20,000 in China, the figure will be ridiculous right?

Now just imagine that in US which is just one country, Chinese are more than 1 milion there.
Or UK where Indians are like 10% of their population or more..

It's like seeing maybe just 2,000 Nigerians in Somalia.. obviously if Somalia is better than Nigeria, we should be seeing at least 500,000 Nigerians there..

So the analogy of using Chinese or Indians is very wack... How many Americans will u see in Nigeria.

Law of survival can never change, people will always migrate to a better abode. There can never be lots of opposing your land and you'll still think of relocating to another person's land.

itsIYKE:
You are a dimwit 1mbecile😂

The Indians and Chinese are all over Nigeria because their country is an economic desert?

This ewedu you guys are eating needs to be studied for brain damaging properties

Igbos will continue to extend their tentacles where ever in the world new opportunities present themselves like their ancestors before them did

Cry me a million oceans 😂😂

The Chinese and Indians analogy is the dumbest analogy ever

No, I will not advise you to use your dad as the major sponsor, he should deposit the money into your account

Pls, can u be more illustrative. Should I stand as the major sponsor even if I'm not working or do not have the financial proof?

JMG12:
Sorry about your study permit refusal knowing the psychological effect, I will keep on saying this there is a condition for sponsorship don't think your dad shows a company account for such an amount it means he has a sufficient amount, don't be surprised after his company's expenditure that money can be reduced to less than a million after company expenditure. Your program is 4 years POF supposed to be 122K CAD by standard, even if you are not showing all that amount still show a reasonable sum of money and part of these funds should also be available in your account. The VO think it is just for demonstration purpose. Refire don't give up it will end in congratulations soon.

Hello.
I want you to help me with something pls.
My Dad wants to sponsor me and my wife, does that look okay with the fact that he's sponsoring couples?

XY23:

How are we now going to know now that you've voted a disaster? Aren't we back to where we have always been? (The what ifs and maybes). Leaders are as human as the rest of us. If we fail to judge their character correctly (because of sentiments), we can't appraise their competence objectively. It is BAT'S character that's influencing his leadership style. You can't judge PO by his intentions and tell us not to judge BAT by his actions. Deal with the truth for once.

I'm not saying he should not be blamed or reprimanded by his actions. I'm only saying that we should stop being childish. If Obi was the elected leader, he wouldn't do more than this, trust me.. No subsidy in the first place that you'll be removing by half .. it's either he remove it entirely or leave it.

BeautifulMind2:

Obi invested Anambra money in Orient petroleum, it started during his tenure today Anambra is oil producing state, Obi invested Anambra money in SAB Milla, is one the investments that gives Anambra huge IGR and massive employment, he built Anambra state university teaching hospital in Awka, he built Onitsha business park, which house Nigeria stock exchange, and banks, he built Anambra state university Igbariam campus, he built Onitsha mall, Obi built Agulu Lake hotel these are major investments in Anambra state, he did all these without owing still the state was least indebted state in Nigeria under him

Apart from the petroleum investment, I'm not seeing any special investment here.. what I'm saying is, all these are typical of an average Governor. With all these investments, the igr could not grow into a substantial figure.. At least, igr should be the result of all these, it was not reflective. He even owed 13months doctor's salaries, I mean doctors o. And this is someone you all are gaslighting.
