Lol...I couldn't agree more.

Reminds me of an episode I saw of Border Security Canada on CBS Reality (DSTV Ch 132) about 2 or 3months ago. A Canadian citizen (white male) had just been deported from the UK after he overstayed, spending a total of 15yrs in the UK on a 1yr visa. He appeared pretty devastated and told the Canadian Immigration officers at Trudeau airport that he worked in the UK as a builder until he was rounded up by UK Border Agency. The immigration officers checked his record in Canada and found that he had no criminal record. I was pretty shocked and wondered why Nigerians always assume that we are the only ones who choose to immigrate illegally or overstay visas? This man had the same Canadian passport that a lot of people from other countries are migrating to obtain.

My point is people decide to migrate for various reasons and from different places, even with passports that some other people will do anything to own. Different strokes for different folks.

All ideas are welcome on the thread. We all still have a lot to learn, regardless of what the comments are about.

It's gradually turning into one of those weird whatsapp group chats where people are always arguing.
I don't mind the comparison. Sometimes the thread is really quiet and comparing both cities is something fresh. It also kinda gives an insight into life in canada. I had no idea of the cost of bus/train in canada and the general cost of a townhouse till the comparison started. And so many other minor details

Lets not do this. Sometimes, just ignore if it offends you. Stay away from the thread for a while till you simmer down. Either way, please continue with all info about canada no matter how it is written.
