Canada is the only place where taxi drivers and pizza boys have medical and engineering degrees. If you have no better place to go, Canada is ok. If you have the option to go somewhere, where your education and experience is valued, then go there!

We're currently investigating this phenomenon and trying to understand why. What we're seeing is that they may have come here with rose glassess on without doing prior research, or perhaps got stuck as drivers of uber because they found comfort there. I've met a few uber drivers like that - they said they prefer working for themselves than study for 4 years, work for a Canadian and follow their rules. if thats a conscious decision they make - is that considered a failure or success?

You are absolutely right, I believed it was all the system's fault for years because this is what everyone says. But then, one of my friends came and he has an engineering degree in Morocco. I shared his experience of getting to the " Orde du Québec ". I don't feel it was too much, I believe that if we want something we need to work for it, it takes time and effort, this is normal, we will not be handed everything as soon as we land here. He is still young, in his early 30s, working in his field as a senior engineer, he likes his job, he bought a house with his wife ... I often admire him because he wasn't influenced by the negative advice we get from our community.@@MakeThatChange

I live in Canada. Grew up here. Came from Venezuela when I was 1.5 years. So this was basically home. I say was because it's not the Canada it used to be. It sucks now. Hurts my heart but it sucks. I have way too many friends that left and moved to different parts of the world and are thriving. if you expect to thrive in Canada, good luck. I sincerely mean it. I have a well paying, high demand career and still the cost of living is so high and for nothing. I live in Toronto where the hustle would get you ahead. Now the hustle just keeps your head above water. The roads are full of pot holes, crime and violent car-jacking are on the rise, home invasions, and we have no right to protect ourselves like the states does. Criminals have the most lenient sentences and are back on the streets in months maybe days, you need over $200K per household to be able to afford a house, when $100K used to be consider a very good income. Everyone is in a rush to get nowhere and drive like idiots. The lakes are nice but only swimmable three months out of the year. I know there are worst places but let me tell you, as someone that grew up in Old Canada, there are much much better places then New Canada. I'm working on paying off all my debts this year and moving somewhere else myself.

You study the local culture, mechanics of job search, you also - network and seek feedback on what you could be doing differently. Learning the rules of the game, in order to win the game! It may sound silly but your resume just isn't the right format, or you don't do well in an interview - all that can be fixed, and reverse engineered. Since you're a newcomer, there are free newcomer services you can take advantage of. It's all listed in the paperwork and welcome package given to you during the process. They help you understand the job market, etc. If you prefer 1on1, we also provide consultations - however, I would recommend to check out newcomer services first. Job search is also a job.

My wife and I recently moved to Toronto at the beginning of the year, coming from having fairly well paying jobs in finance and still maintaining those salary levels (and earning higher quantitatively) in Canada, and i absolutely agree with all points in this video. The cost of living is horrendously high (food, rent, insurance, etc), unless you get paid significantly more your disposable income could come out less than you had in your home country. the free medical care wait times and access to medical practitioners are not ideal if you previously could afford private healthcare and buying a home is unbelievably expensive compared to even Canada’s comparable countries (England, Australia, USA, Europe etc), but the salary expectation does not match though taxes are higher than the comparable countries. You would likely get better value from your investments elsewhere. That said, it is very safe, very clean and the people are generally nice… but i would not suggest it if you were financially comfortable in your home country and somewhat fairly safe… unless you are very very content with a significant downgrade in your lifestyle/quality of life. And please consider that moving “just because you can” is not a good enough reason to do it. Great video as always ladies. Very transparent, accurate and informative. 👌

I appreciate your last sentence, "And please consider that moving “just because you can” is not a good enough reason to do it." Just a question, based on your knowledge of economics, do you feel the country may improve on its cost of living matter after 5 years?, or is it very difficult to predict such an outcome?
@tsybze 7 ай бұрын
@@Visionary-cx5dwI’m not an economic expert but from my knowledge it is difficult to predict, many factors to consider… but looking at historical trends, rental costs always increase generally. And housing prices can fluctuate somewhat but eventually they always go up. Unless there is an economic collapse like 2008 in the US…. But that is unlikely in Canada, banks have pretty decent lending controls and property is linked to things like pensions, government’s main financial instruments, etc so a housing collapse would be worse for the country than prices staying high. Plus…the demand for housing is far higher than supply possible and this won’t change for a while. My unqualified opinion🥲

Also the most in demand skills are actually plumbers, welders trade skills type of people. Lots of Canadians are getting old and retired. We need trade skills and medical field say nurses and doctors the most. Getting certified for trade skills is very doable here with college certificates or training programs that would give you official canadian certificates. Tradesmen easily get jobs and their pay is decent. IT people should go to the USA or even stay home and work remote to save money.

In a nutshell if you are rich in your country don't move to Canada regardless of your job, instead go only in vacation time as a tourist, your wallet will thank you. Only move if you are poor in a 3rd world country and your current job is in demand in Canada. And I especially agree with the security situation, if you're exposed to extreme insecurity (like in my homecountry Mexico) you should move, no matter if you are rich or not.

You gave the example of a web developer who worked for Western companies but lived and worked in Russia. Recently I had an interview as a backend developer with a company from the USA, this company closing all its offices in Russia and started hiring staff from another country (east Europe), and this is true not only for Russia but for all ex-USSR countries as Kazakhstan to. Today finding remote jobs in Western companies is hard.

First, I am deeply sorry you had to leave your home, no one should ever be forced to leave home. Secondly, glad to hear you're safe. Our advice would be to stay strong, be open to learning how the new culture and society works. Pick up where you left off with studies, if you loved what you were studying. Canadian government and banks provide student loans at low to no interest rates that you don't have to repay until after several years after your graduation. Tap into your own community where you are, make friends. Don't be scared about having nothing on your name - you have relatives to say the least, you also have an opportunity to start your life from scratch, and hopefully maybe even make a positive change in this horrible world.

I’m Canadian and I’ve made friends with many new comers to my country. What pisses me off the most is my friends who are Doctors or Engineers in their country having to come here and basically start from scratch and go back to school. That’s appalling and we have a medical crisis right now they need these people. And if you don’t have a family doctor you will be waiting a looong time to see a doctor. Hmm also the rent and food and everything exploded to astronomical proportions. So I’m not sure how they can exist, I would recommend applying for low income housing in the government system which will be oppressive for sometime but if you are diligent and pass all the schooling and hoops you may be able to create what you wish.

Hi! AI is a great concentration to study with great opportunities and salary. It all depends on whether you can afford the cost of living and studying in Canada. UK and Ireland aren’t cheap either, if not more expensive. The biggest reason many criticize Canada is cost of living - the reality is, it’s about the same as most other developed metropolitans. Personally, we think the timing to move to Canada is as good as it’s ever been.

you might want to consider to do some research on what field/profession is in higher REAL demand in Canada. Start by studying the job market and even sending out resumes to positions. Based on our experience, insurance has plenty of postings, but also many people competing for it - it might be challenging as the outlook for this profession in Canada is fairly moderate, license would be an asset, but you'd also need to gain an understanding of specifics of insurance market in Canada. Rail traffic control might require some certification as well, and there are very few positions open at any given time - but worth a try!

I was a victim of physical abuse all my childhood and adulthood inside the house and outside. Just for not being straight. As soon as I got the opportunity to move to Canada, I didn't hesitate and I am very happy to be safe and not live in fear anymore. I don't care about all the difficulties, I work hard and I accept the fact that nowhere is perfect in the world, I appreciate the positive side and I accept the downsides. I am very happy every morning because I am here.

If you can afford education in Canada - absolutely worth giving it try. Make sure you do research in the most in demand and well paid professions, if you haven’t made a decision on what you want to study. Also be ready for some difficulties along the way, and stay strong, it will pass!

Simple, I am from the Netherlands and I will not trade my country for another, maybe Danmark, Norway, Switzerland or Sud-Tirol ( North Italy ) as almost everything is well arranged here. Living quality, safety, facilities, work, insurances, infrastructure and the list is long....very long. Perfect? No, we have issues and living costs are not cheap but incredibly high standard on daily basis and very good acces to public facilities. Police, fire department, ambulance and intelligence services are working great. At some areas in the bigger cities I will not go ( same story all over the Globe ) but in terms of living, options, income, food, transport etc etc I will not change my country :) Will I visit Canada? Yes I will! I am about to plan a trip for 2024, latest 2025 ( expensive yes yes!) to discover some of natures extreme beauty and hopefully meet some new nice people. Lot of Dutch do have a special connection with Canada, so I must go, I have to experience some tiny bit of that giant country!

Hey! Ultimately it is your decision on whether you’re ready to make a big change. I’ve met many people coming to Canada for a masters degree and achieving a really successful life here. MBA is a great versatile degree, but I would recommend to specialize in something like finance or data. Take the best advantage of opportunities the university gives you - networking, student associations, applying for bursaries, extra projects etc. and you will be set for success.

Sorry to hear that's happened to you. I do want to take a moment and celebrate that you landed a job in your field so soon, good job! Don't despair, it takes some time to adapt and understand the local laws, and then it will get better and easier. PREPARATION is everything - understanding the laws of the job market, building a resume and interviewing. Driving license is a standard requirement for jobs that require some degree of mobility and independence.

I am considering moving to Canada from China as a marketer with over 8 years of work experience. The thing is it is totally impossible for a worker to afford an apartment in my city where a remote apartment of 100 square meters is worth US$828,000. And as a local, I am supposed to pay 30% of the full price as a downpayment and spend the rest of my 30-40 years to pay off the mortgage. The worst part is that companies here prefer fresh graduates over experienced and expensive workers, so losing your job or starting to drive Didi (similar to Uber) at 35 is a likely future for everyone. The way I see it, since I do international marketing, a lot of people in marketing from other countries are still loving what they are doing in their 50s or even 60s. That's why I am thinking of moving. China leaves me no choices. And I love choices.
@MakeThatChange 7 ай бұрын
Marketing is a fulfilling profession and can be well paid for experience professionals, but it’s also very competitive in Canada: there are a lot of marketers, and it’s one of the most popular bachelor degrees in business here.

You nailed it with social protection and safety and security. IMO, these are THE most important reasons to consider moving to Canada. Wealth and skills can be acquired and quantified and are secondary, assuming one can meet basic needs. Peace and stability cannot be quantified nor are they easily acquired. There are plenty of (born in Canada) Canadians who would not consider themselves wealthy or who are otherwise underemployed. That’s life. Newcomers need to face that reality (as do old stock Canadians) and set realistic expectations. If they think they will transition somehow from lower middle income status in their home country to living in Canada as part of the 1%, it ain’t gonna happen. Will they be looked after? Yes. Countries are literally like real estate on a Monopoly board. It’s location, location, location. Those with the most to offer, are generally more costly. It’s obviously a personal choice as you correctly point out but those who leave to places that offer far less than Canada does leave me shaking my head.

once u land in canada u realize ur experience need to be "TRUE CANADIAN EXPERIENCE" which is basically the super canadian passive aggresive way of saying "well we prefer a freasher over an immigrant with more experience." its a glass ceiling they use to keep skilled immigrants from pursuing their careers here. second canada really dont need skilled immigrants. what htey really need is blue collar workers who is willing to shovel ur snow, drive a uber or do contruction. imagine someone who worked in a bank in their own country , building houses in canada cuz they cant break in cuz of "canadian XP' . all this plays into the part that canada is a massive welfare ship that needs a constant inflow of workers who the govt can make to whatever so they can tax them to death, to provide for native canadians welfare lifestyle. basically u become another hamster on the welfare wheel that desperately needs to keep spinning or else the ponzi like welfare scheme is gonna collapse. tbh from the outside u cant really tell the flaws and cracks of the system. everything in canada is well hidden. (u will know what i mean.) the flaws just revealed themselves cuz so many is going there now and telling the world about it
