What happened to Australia,
Uncontrolled imports of foreign flora and fauna wrecked havoc on their local environment

For example, someone imported live rabbits to australia in the late 19th century. The rabbits multiplied and ate everything in their path.

Did i mention that the rabbits had zero predators.?

It cost the Australian government a lot of money to bring the situation under control.

Grinded dried okro, grinded crayfish, locust beans, ashes (I won't tell you what this is used for). But it's a secret tool for women with facial hair. That's a topic for another day.
Rest of the items. As you can see, I labelled them. Sister was so grateful till now, she calls to say thank you n pray for me. 💕

I hope this is helpful to aspiring ladies that are going to abroad and ll miss home delicacies or items we just get easily here.

A whole palm oil? Why?
The scanner will pick it no matter how you hide it and they won't just let it pass through. It could cause delays for the traveller as well. When others are boarding, you will be there rummaging through your luggage to get the oil out. It's not worth it. African stores in Canada generally sell good oil.

She can get most items you posted here @ Costco store where all these are sold @ very cheap price & there are some places where items are giving freely.
What is the matched for? There stoves are electric ones , no power outage
Moreover, there are some necessary items you suppose get like seasoning cubes, sponge for bathing (because they’re so called sponge is like duke duke foam) which may not scrubs as desires,to mention but few jooo

I see. But I wonder what they have against palm oil. It's not like you can use it to make bomb.

She has landed and is devouring them. Some were removed but she went there with almost all items. Especially blades for shaving pubic areas cos she told me a pack of blade was $20. And the blade na nacet wey no strong reach tiger. $20 is over N22K in Nigeria.
Most of the food items too, she's enjoying them. Thanks sister.
Why you no give am blender? Which one be mortar and pestle? Abi na another part of Nigeria she relocate to?

If she pounds any how with that mortar, the news you go hear go different o. No pounding, especially if it is a blocks of apartments. Na police matter be that for disturbing others o.

My dear, I hope your sister has landed and successfully passed through the Canadian immigration at their airport over there?

I watched a video just the morning about a guy that was deported immediately he entered Canada, simply because they checked his luggage and found he packed his documents giving a sense of job seeker on a visit visa.

Canada is strict o.
That is for those going on tourist visa. If she is going on PR or as a student that doesn't matter.

How I Helped My Sister With Food Items And Accessories To Take To Canada.
Recently, my sister escaped from this hard country to Canada for greener pastures. Many of you knew me on this site as that young girl with sharp mouth. Well, I may be choleric but I m also nice.
So this February, sister went to Ontario. I knew she'd miss home. I went to Wuse market and nearby street shops n bought varieties. I waka-waka my rubber slippers cut. My sister is a picky type that eat light foods but she still love our local dishes. She's going to miss home 😭 and I just want her to v her favorite foods as long as she can. Though she can patronize African stores over there too.
As I m typing this, I can't wait to see her, am so happy for her and I hope to relocate too via marriage in future. Hm, God when?

Anyways I ll list some of the items as I post them here. They are educative and useful for people going abroad too. There are some items you can take along like razor blades, shaving sticks, stock fish, palm oil, locust beans, garri, beans, rice, onions, matches, polish, makeup props, grinded beans for moinmoin or akara, crayfish, beans, balls, sellotape, dried pepper, potash, bathroom slippers, cleansers, needles and threads to sew post letter tear-tear undies or clothes. 😂 In fact, just carry any small daily use item we use here and conceal them well cos of over sabi long throat immigration officers at airport. It ll shock you you can buy a packet of blade that's not up to N1,000 for over $20 Canadian dollars, that's over N20K in Nigeria. Imagine blade pack kan for N20K? It no shock you?
So below are items I packed for her and she's enjoying them there. 😂

Pic 1, Carton of coaster biscuit, table size mortar and pestle for her to grind pepper and packs of match sticks.
You are a very nice babe.

Let's get married and relocate to Ontario too. 😏

Same as the grey squirrels in the UK. They have overtaken the native ones.

This is only a problem when you've not started working sis.

Average pay is 17-18$ per hour. You can make $200 plus a day is a normal thing here depending on the length of your shift and hourly pay.
Re: How I Helped My Sister With Food Items And Accessories To Take To Canada by Afamed: 3:55pm On Feb 13, 2024
Why not tell your sister to buy those items in Canada if it's that easy there?

Most of you are nothing but hypocrite..

Shame on una, you could as well instructed your to buy those items over there ?

You still have to buy cheap food items from Nigeria and send over, tell her to spend her Canadian $ over there
