Hi guys,

Can a Nigerian trained Pharmacist practise Pharmacy in Canada?

Or is this certificate a shait?
Yes, you just have the Evaluating and Qualifying exams. The remaining requirements will depend on the province you want to practice.

Hello people of God,

Hope we are keeping safe.

Please I need urgent leads on the most or any of the most efficient but affordable medical insurance (if it matters, in Alberta). One that can accommodate hospital consultations, drugs, basic dental and optometry.

I am asking because a number of them have clauses that sometimes you never hear about when they advertise the product and i dont want stories that touch.

Kindly help with any practical information at your disposal as soon as possible.

PS: I need it for a senior already in canada.

Thanks

I need help of gurus in the house.... Sometimes making key decisions about the next step you want to take in life need the input of some informed advisers even though the final decision is yours.

I am in my 30s, likewise my spouse. Married for 6 years with 3 kids. I work and ear very little,around 150k but my wife isn't.

All effort to get a gainful employment had yield no result. Always under employed, most times out of jobs or earning ridiculously little. She has a Bsc in Biochemistry (Science Laboratory Technology Option) while I have a Masters in History.

Now, here is where advise is needed. We are trying to decide on Canada Express Entry mode for the family. So that my wife and 3 children can go to Canada.

1. Is her Bsc Biochemistry SLT relevant over there? And which career path is best for her?

2. As a masters degree holder in History, what are the jobs that someone like me fits into?

3. We have no relatives in Canada, how will that impact our decision and migration process.

Thank you

Hi there. This is not the right thread to ask the question. Please refer to the Canadian Express Entry Thread. I will attemtp a general answer.

The system is points based and thrives on six important criteria:

1. Age, the system favours people under 30. You start losing points for each year from 30

2. Education, a combing a BSC and an additional certification or having a Masters is your best bet.

3. Language Score, a minimum of 8,7,7,7 in the Listening, Speaking, Writing and Reading modules of the IELTS test.

4. Skilled Work Experience of not less than 1year but 3 years is the most preferred.

5. Proof that you have money to survive. There is a specific sum for each family size.

6. Spouse advantage, a spouse can donate points by evaluating their education and taking IELTS.

So look at this criteria and see how you fit/use it to decide the spouse with the best chances.

Take the quiz here https://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/crs-tool.asp to see how your points could look like

Hey Nairalanders, To everyone living in Canada as an immigrant, where is the best province to settle as an immigrant, where there is a low cost of living and cost of house rent isn't too expensive for a new comer?

go to where you would see opportunities first and get Canadian experience and you can move later. Using indeed.com i am seeing over 200 new jobs in my field in Ontario ( even tho i may have to settle for less), but I can see 2 or 3 new jobs in new foundland. So because new foundland is cheap should i now go there
