Bobomaigida: It’s worth noting that the number of Nigerians moving to Canada isn’t the highest compared to other groups. For instance, Indian migrants, who make up a significant portion of newcomers, aren’t discouraged from coming by their own community. We should emphasize the importance of planning thoroughly before making the move, as the situation at home offers little improvement.
Currently, Nigeria faces severe challenges such as a month-long fuel shortage, high inflation, and a crumbling currency. For context, while N10 million was equivalent to CAD 30,000 last June, you now need N35 million to get the same amount. The economic divide is widening, leaving a stark gap between the rich and the poor with no visible middle class. Given these conditions, suggesting that people stay and endure these hardships seems unreasonable.
The only compelling reason for people to reconsider moving to Canada would be if those who are already there begin returning permanently. Until then, anyone who has the means to move should plan carefully and proceed if it aligns with their goals and circumstances. Anyone with 35million in their account at this moment have no reason to come to canada now with the whole situation, coming to canada to waste such funds and at the end not getting a permanent residence doesn’t worth it. The cost of living is high are difficult to get common menial jobs in canada. It’s better to go to Europe. |

Bobomaigida: For those planning to move to Canada, it’s essential to thoroughly PLAN your journey in advance. This includes selecting the right course, choosing the appropriate province, and understanding the PR pathways available. Always conduct thorough research and seek advice. As a student, you will be a temporary resident, so it’s crucial to have a clear exit strategy for transitioning to permanent residency and start taking steps toward that goal.
Unfortunately, conditions in our home country are not improving and are becoming increasingly challenging and costly. If you have the opportunity to leave, do so with careful planning. However, not everyone can afford to move abroad due to the rising costs and economic difficulties at home. If Canada is too expensive, consider other options, but ensure you are well-informed and prepared.
I wish everyone the best in their endeavors. I will not advice anyone to come to canada again on a study permit . If you must travel on a study permit go to Europe for now especially countries with cheaper tuition and hope of staying after study |

cococandy: What was the point of owning 8 houses and 3 cars in Nigeria if that real estate portfolio can’t give you the financial means to afford a better place in America?
I’m curious to know how this type of financial mindset works .
I know you’re going to say you can afford it but choose to live in one room. Then my next question is why? You’re pinching the penny to do what? To buy more land and another house and another house just to live in on room the whole time? What’s the end goal?
To have money to live comfortably or have money that you can look at and smile while living in squalor? I can see where you are coming from as a female, you have no responsibilities so you will never understand |

Sapasenator: About three years ago. It was a bitter winter and I was dining at a restaurant around 11 pm in the night. It was very cold and if I remember correctly, it was -35 degrees Celsius below freezing point and if you pee outside, it freezes before hitting the ground. cold.
The restaurant was filled with everyone white except myself. I looked behind me and it was crowded with delivery drivers working for the delivery app, Skip the Dishes, waiting to pick up food orders. Nine delivery drivers and all black guys mostly Nigerian looking.
Imagine what it means to have to drive constantly in the bitter cold to deliver food when most people are either sleeping or enjoying themselves in a warm restaurant.
Some of these guys are even delivering with brand new SUVs purchased on credits and after a deeper dive, I came to realize our people here live mostly above their means to impress fellow Nigerians. They buy houses or cars they cannot afford and now have to work three jobs and drive on the side to maintain their fake lifestyles.
This is not a healthy way to live guys, learn to relax and enjoy yourself once in a while, do not live above your means and the fact that you are pre-authorized for that big mortgage, loan, or line of credit does not mean you have to accept.
Learn to live your life without trying to please or impress anyone and occasionally, take time off to have fun and enjoy yourself, take vacations. My brother better leave Nigerians alone, they are difficult to advice. Plan your life wisely, time will tell. I left 8 houses back in nigeria , 3 cars. I got here in canada and had to adjust immediately. I live in 1 room here and never drive a finance car, this is a different society. Just because they gave them credit opportunities, they will go all out to put themselves in debt they can’t get out of just to show off on social media and impress gullible people back home. They are broke. If you try to advice them they will shut you off and say they only live once, they never for once think they can live longer. They don’t even think. Plan ya life bro |

helinues: A friend who just arrived Canada said he is also receiving close to a million naira monthly pending till he finds a job.
Our politicians do travel to those countries, they have kids, friends and family there, but for them to replicate the same always hard for them to do You need about 1.8million naira monthly to survive in canada as single and about 3million a month for family of 3 . Rent for an apart goes from $2200 dollars, a room with shared kitchen and toilet from $800 dollars, Canada is not cheap. That person must have filed for refugee and what they are giving the person cant pay rent a month so how are they going to feed. They give some of them free accommodation to support themselves. The money given to these people is tax payers money. Those with PR and have several kids are cheating the system too. They get child benefit every month which is from tax payers month. The government deduct about 700 dollars tax from my earning every month and this is what they give these people for free. It is tax payers money |

Guys, this is an advice for those still considering coming to canada to study and have plans to stay in Canada after studying. Please consider your plans before making the move because it doesn’t worth it anymore.
If your plans is to come and study and go back home then no worries. Over 32,000 PGWP are expiring in March 2024. Canada government has told them to go back home . No more extension. Some of them are in the express pool with scores ranging from 460 to 490. The Canadian government has purposely increased the score so that most of them wont be able to get the ITA.
It is clear now that the government only want to make money off the students and send them back home. Also the country is very tough now and difficult to survive, cheap labour everywhere and the cost of living is way too high compared to other countries. Most Indians are now going to the US for their studies. Statistics shows that Indians which are the major students coming to canada , their applications to canada has dropped by over 50% percent in the past few months because the government has made it difficult for people to get PR after studies.
If you have the money and ready to invest in just education then you can come. If your plan is to stay back, it is better to consider other countries that can give documentation easier without having to waste huge resources. |

Leave Nigerian single women abroad alone , most of them are miserable, rude, disrespectful , have high expectations, too much ego, controlling, never submissive and carry the same attitude from Nigeria. Out of 100 atleast 98 have the characteristics above. This is why at 40 plus close to menopause they still wait for a miracle hubby to sweep them off their feet . Be at peace with yourself and try dating other race or bring someone from nigeria if you are looking for love without much headache. |

If you are coming to Canada, make sure you have 6 month accomodation sorted and you will be good. The earlier you are able to sort out the accommodation the better.
Before you reply with insult just know you are replying someone that have 90% of his family members in Canada.  Everything the op said is true except you are old or aren’t following the situation in the country, you don’t read the news, you are isolated in your own space, you don’t care about concerns of others or you are a politician or rich man pikin that immigrated for enjoyment in canada , Or you were here 10 years ago.

franchasofficia: Canada is a small country with massive land mass. Canada's economy is not booming like that of US, UK, Germany, etc. Canada doesn't have enough skill jobs that is why they demand for so much including Canada experience and all that because if they have more than enough jobs like the states, UK, etc, their employers will waive some freaking requirements they ask from skilled migrants who spent a fortune to enter Canada via express entry, etc.
So please before you decide to relocate to Canada, bear in mind that it will take you some years to gather all the useless Canada experience and other requirements to secure a befitting skilled job in Canada.
People mistake Canada as paradise but unfortunately Canada is just another UK. You complain of income tax in UK, are you aware that consumer tax in some Canada province will make you broke despite what you earn? Imagine paying as much as 30% VAT on whatever you buy after collecting your so called salary or wage?
If you are young, have big financial dreams and want to succeed big financially through migration, please find way migrate to US legally. You are better off in Poland, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Belgium than in Canada.
Canada is overrated. There is no much economic activities going on there and most part have harsh weather condition.
The only good thing about Canada is easy route to PR if you entered legally, aside that, UK = Canada. In fact, UK is far better than Canada when it comes to ease of securing a job, you will secure a job faster in UK than in Canada that have a struggling economy. Ask yourself, what and what does Canada produce and export to the world? Canadian government is hyping Canada with so much fund to attract immigrants to come into Canada with huge money to help Canada economy grow in maybe 100 years from now.
Don't mistake Canada as a nation with booming economy and so many high paying skilled jobs, you will be disappointed.
Canadian government is trying to build Canada's economy by collecting money from skilled migrants and students, they are trying to replicate US DV lottery thinking it would build their country's economy but they cant because they dont have the intellects and technology experts to do what US did.
US is a magical, wonderful nation, the best country on earth. The country where you can pick money on the floor if you are ready to put in the work.
May God continue to bless America You just nailed it, I live here and anytime I told any of my friends in Europe to stay back in Europe, they never believe me until one came from Finland and saw for himself, he ran back after 3 weeks. Canada is overhyped and their is nothing much here , it was better several years back now worst, housing crisis, no jobs, employers shortchanging skilled workers due to scarcity of jobs, high cost of living , difficult to succeed for those who aren’t in with huge cash to start a business. |
