I am not sure if this is helpful or relates to what we discuss here, but I hope to show guys a side to Living in Canada they may not expect.

Yesterday, while shopping at Walmart, I decided to grab burger and coke at the McDonald's corner of it. Not long had I sat down, did a lady sitting adjacent to me say hello to me. It was very unusual cos here people rarely talk to strangers. I replied hello with the fake oyibo smile everybody here wears. Next thing she asked you are from Nigeria right? I just thought to myself, well we are the most populous black nation so its an easy guess, I forgot there are way more francophone africans than Nigerians in Montreal. Before I could reply, she quizzed "You dont look Igbo, yoruba or Bini and you dont have Iyanya's people face either, what part of Nigeria are you from?" At this point I was startled. I told her she is right, told her my hometown. She admitted she has never heard of the place. She went on to say I must have landed recently, I was like this one no dey use jazz so? Before I could ask how she knew, she said my paying for another cup of coke gave me away. I didnt know when you buy a cup of coke at McDonald's, you can simply go take more coke for free with the same cup, I have been paying for extra cup of coke like everyday since I landed o, money wey i no get o ...

She and her friend engaged me in a lengthy fun chat, she was even speaking small pidgin at some point of the convo. The more we talked, the more it dawned on me that she was only Caucasian in skin, at heart na almost Nigerian. I asked how she knew so much about Nigeria, "I have been dating Nigerian men for years" said she. Her friend chipped in "they keep breaking her heart but she cant help it cos they are always so gorgeous". Told me of how they selfishly keep demanding money from her and make her get in debt just so they could send money home.

According to her, she has been with men from other west african countries, but those were just sex, its only nigerian men she dated/married, at this point my ear stand like local dog own. She made some remarks about a particular nigerian ethnic group and their habbit of having pussies everywhere (thats exactly how she put it o). She sounded like she has been at both the sweet and bitter side of that habbit of theirs.
At this junction, I remembered I have been told some white ladies have a fetish for black guys. Before I remember my papa name, she don ask wetin I dey do tomoro, say she go come show me around town tomoro. I com just rizin am say based on one thing, one thing, I dey relocate from Montreal tomoro. Her countenance changed, she just sad one kain like pikin wey go make pet out of christmas chicken when watch night don reach.

Her friend helped her out, told me she has taken a liken to me and asked if I was married or had a girl in Nigeria. I was perplexed, shuu na just barely 30mins we don know o! time wey no go reach naija babe decide which of her wrong number she go give you. I was like na now I understand how G boys take dey do am! No be juju, no be smart up anything ... Anyways, we took the metro together and chatted even more, getting off the subway, we realised our buses were different but sister say she go like join me in mine to see me off before she goes home. Ibaboo! even if na night dem born me, no mean say na last night na, this format no go work. I sha just use style persuade am say make I see am off to her bus instead. As I waved her goodbye, she kept asking if I was sure I didnt want to join her. Well I sure pass roll on, so I just smiled calmly and said goodnight. Na so my fuse take survive the direct voltage o. Aside the obvious card she was trying to throw, I enjoyed the time with her, i think she is a sweet soul. She says she has helped a couple of nigerian refugees in the past, according to her they easily find work as caregivers and are known to be so polite always saying "ma and sir" to the old folks they look after.

So, guys here is one of the culture shock you may experience. Firstly it takes nothing here for some ladies to clear you their mind. As much as it is possible that she could have been genuinely attracted to me, I think it falls into the category of white ladies who just fancy black guys. I hear some of them feel y'all are horses in bed and know how to make a woman feel loved lol. So if you dont mind the risk of being a sexual experiment; your race rather than your personality being your selling point, then you go enjoy tire be that.

I enjoyed this..

The requirements for Uber driving in Canada can be found at this link, https://www.uber.com/ca/en/drive/

Forklift driving is a respectable means of livelihood for those interested in blue collar careers here. The training requirements vary from province to province in Canada. You can research the different requirements at this link, http://forkliftlicenseguide.com/canada

While this is very very true. We still have few ones who just fall in love with black guys o, not because they feel they are good in bed or they have a fetish. Lol.

I’m just about a month in and where i work, ive had new friends come up to me to ask if I’ve got a single brother...lol. Its all jokes but it can be quite a culture shock for the men.

Nice write up!

Wehdone Sir.

Haha. If the need arises, engineers do write flawlessy especially in developed countries. There are tons of error free technical reports to be written and justifications for projects to be presented to senior management.
The reports have to be presented to people at different skills level or knowledge; so, one has to strike a balance.

In some meeting, you would have engineers, trades people, business leaders, and community stakeholders with the last two having zero technical knowledge; yet, you have to submit and present documents that would make sense to them all. To suceed in Canada, an Engineer must have excellent communication or technical communication skills.

I enjoyed this. The bolded word....i know where you're from...lol.

HI, you are free to bring your Nigerian certificate but you will still have to go through the process of meeting the requirements of any province where you settle to be qualified to operate a forklift here. This is similar to other licensed professions where you have to get certified before you can practice here. I advice you go back and study the link I provided you to see if your certificate will be useful for any part of the process.

I'm not sure what you mean by investment but any type of investment you have in Nigeria is also available here. There are bank products you can invest in, there are bonds and shares here, there are real estate opportunities, even baba ijebu (lotteries/gambling) is available here. There is something for every one. When you arrive and look around, you will be better informed after you settle down. All the best.

Thank you for your feedback Damilola. Studio24 is glad to have helped. We appreciate your patronage.

Good day, what is the outcome of the assessment of your ATS? It will be recognised by IRCC if the ECA report gives it a Canadian education equivalent.

Thank you. It says one year college equivalent in Canada. Still, I will appreciate if I can get at least one person with ATS to help me answer a personal question

Issyman:

I think you are worrying yourself for nothing. If your ECA states that it is equivalent to a Canadian education, then it's a positive review and will be accepted by IRCC. Many people have used ATS and were successful in their application. It's not a big issue.
