A cousin is a cousin, whether male or female.

There is nothing like a cousin brother or a cousin sister.

If you must append the gender, just say male cousin or female cousin.

Which one is cousin brother for goodness sake?

Nigerians o!!!

If I was customs I would take you aside and search you. Some of those things are already available in Canada. I cannot understand why a person would be shipping Vaseline and matches to a western country

She stated her reason: cost! Instead of spending dollars to buy these things, send them to me while I buy the stuff here and send them to you, and in the process of doing that she'll keep the difference. She's smart.

A shop where anything you buy inside is worth $1:25 for each item.

It takes a long process. They check your educational qualification, experience etc..You must have certain amount in your account, the amount varies depending on the number of children you have plus your wife or if you are going as a single person.

Are you less than 30 (or at most 35) years old?

Do you have proof that you graduated 5 years (or more) ago and you have worked for at least three years.??

Do you have IELTS score with 8.0 band average

If your answers to these 3 questions are all yes then you can enter the pool. Check for more details on YouTube.

People above 35 can still cover up with higher degrees like MSc, PhDs etc so....

That’s not his first language. Moreover, the world has moved past grammatical errors once message is captured and decoded.

If you have been opportune to work in a multicultural domain, you should be familiar with English blunders, with no one raising a flag.

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 don't compare currencies out there when making purchase, she'll be earning in Canadian dollar not in naira so she should be able to afford the blade at whatever cost it is sold there. If you wan dey convert, you no go eat sef. When you go buy 2 raps of eba and soup + meat for near or over $20. Where as in Nigeria, $1 or $2 max would do.

Damseldammie:
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 forgot to add those you mentioned. She took them there. You see those things I bought for her were her things she can't do away with. Plus it was cheaper as she dey carry dem dey go. Some were removed but she went with a lot and was grateful she faced little or no immigration hassle concerning are luggages.

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.
Small mortar doesn't make my h sound. Just small pom, pom, pom and you v made some beans stews, egg stew etc!

So,people still uses match sticks? Why not a lighter? You're a good sister though. And I hope some of the items you put there will not be a reason why they will send her back.

Matches, cellotape, shaving stick, onions etc. Nawah. Look at the thibgs you bought and celebrating. Who told you those things are not abroad?

Is it sold for same price?

That’s is still cost saving for a hustler.
