Nigerians seeing your post will rush to that country and spoil it with drugs the way they spoiled South Africa
Another wrong generalization. Nigerians in Canada are some of the most successful immigrants.

There are a few bad eggs that have soiled our reputation with fraud,drugs and the illegal border crossings using US visa to claim asylum.

Why was my previous post deleted? grin


Like I posted before, one Nigerian paid for the flight tickets of more than 700 stranded country folks in S.A does that make all Nigerians kind? what of the bro who gave N1 million to a beggar and translator right here in Nigeria? so because one White person pays your meal and complements your baby it means all Canadians are nice grin
at least from all indications 90% of e'm are nice. But only 1% are nice in Nigeria

So my wife and I took a few days off. It's pre thanksgiving and we decided to have lunch at a restaurant. We went with our 11 month old baby and sat beside a couple that were wrapping up their own lunch. They admired our beautiful baby and gave the usual compliments - "oh she's so cute", "How old is she" etc.
They left before us and when we concluded, asked for the bill. We received the shock of our lives when the waiter told us the couple had paid for our lunch, that they liked our baby. We were so surprised and didn't even have the opportunity to say thank you to them. These guys are super nice here and we indeed feel very grateful. Happy thanksgiving to all Canadians.

Canadians are super nice. Coming from someone that lives there, I can attest to this.

It is quite a common knowledge that the treatment of the first nations by the Canadian government has not been good, I am surprised you do know about this.

You know, you don't know all black people on earth so stop generalizing. You are black aren't you? Okay. So since you are innately insecure and always crave for public validation to compensate for YOUR insecurity and you go on seeking attention to obscure your own shortcomings does not mean every black person is like you.

You Nigerians stay on Nairaland with your miserable selves constantly bad mouthing the black race as if doing so constantly will one day turn you into a white person.

Read my lips. No white person will respect a self hater like you. You won't earn any brownie points being a self hater. You have low self esteem and hate that you are black so stop projecting your self hate on black people worldwide. This is a new year. Change!

Listen mate, you aren’t patriotic nor an ardent supporter of the black race more than I am and what I said here I can’t say around my Caucasian mates. I’m an unapologetic black fella who defend my race especially around people from other races, however this platform is a black dominated one hence I feel free to say stuff as it is here. It’s like scolding a relative at home while supporting them in public for same offence. Trump call it “locker room talk”.

That being said, an average Black person crave for too much gratification and hardly ever indulge in an act of benevolence without their cameras. They tend to derive more satisfaction from “thanks” and “God bless you” they receive not only from the recipient of their kindness but from the general public more than their charitable gesture itself. Take away the cameras most of those who parade themselves within the black community as philanthropist on social media won’t bother.

If you live in the West you’ll be conversant with the countless number of charity organisation where Caucasians make monthly donation by setting up direct debit without parading it. I work in the health sector in the UK (NHS) where numerous Caucasian usually come to donate blood at no charge just to help those in need of transfusion, the black community donors are very minimal. Also, most Brits and I heard even Americans signed up that should they die the hospital can harvest their useful organs to help the sick and needy yet never talk about it. Instances are abound. I’ve been living in Europe for many years and well-traveled and I can tell you that blacks tend to be more loud about any act of kindness they do than Caucasians.

You should extend same gesture to somebody when the opportunity avails itself, so that the world will be a better place for us all.

Yes Stafford, people in Canada can be nice in such places as restaurants, public parks, streets...
Someone visiting Canada can easily be led to believe that Canadians are the greatest people on the planet.
However, once the person enters the Canadian workforce, he would soon be hit by a different reality. I always say that in Canada, there is nothing more dysfunctional than the Corporate world. This is where you find the bullies, the backstabbing and a great deal of subtle racism.

People in Canada outside of work can be outstanding

Confirmed !! You done yarn am as e be. They can aswell be pretenders. Smile in your front and behind you speaking bad as have heard and learnt.

It was an amazing experience for me and the kids at Pearson airport Toronto in December, when I missed my flight twice to my final destination and needed help with rebooking and getting back my back pack I ignorantly left on a queue.

Was trying to get a shorter way of rebooking and left all my documents in the backpack, plus the kid's backpack too.

This pretty police officer took I and the kids to Lost but found room, recovered my backpack and led us to the phone booth to call the care line for rebooking.

Canadians are compassionate and loving.

Nigerians outside Nigeria should be there for Nigerians.

If each one would care for each one, then the world will be a safer and happier place.

Happy New year all, may all our heart desires become testimonies in Jesus Name.
