I'm not saying you can't find winter clothing in naija. Problem is it is mostly likely going to be a waste as most of them wont be able to handle -45c weather. You can find cheap jackets in Saskatchewan too but don't expect them to last more than one or two winters. Those cost btw $20 to $60. However if you shell out $150+ for a quality winter jacktet, it will last you for years till you decide to upgrade based on style. If you are low on cash, try one of the thrift stores or liquidation stores. You may find quality then for much cheaper. |

What does that mean in terms of employment? Statistics Canada show Ontario has the highest unemployment (Nunavut really doesn't count). A simple google search will also show Ontario is the province with the most red and a crippling economy. This is despite canada having picked itself up from the recession. Of course, based on population, ontario has the highest GDP. But based on recent trends, Alberta is well poised to over Ontario as the economic hub of Canada.
Based on stories I've heard from people living there, people lose their jobs discriminately. Those same jobs are reposted out and at a lower pay than before. They know they can do that since there are many people willing to get that job even at a lower pay. People will about do anything to hang on to their jobs cos there is almost nothing out there. Yet immigrants keep rushing to Ontario (esp Toronto) and it just gets worse. Shine your eyes people!
You know how the US say the economy is really bad, the unemployment rate is 7.9%. In Ontario, it is 8.4%. Canada as a whole is 7.4%.
As a result, people moved in drones from Ontario to Saskatchewan and Alberta. Saskatchewan used to have the easiest provincial immigration nominee program (SINP). To combat the employment and immigration issues as a result of the mass movement, SINP has become one of the toughest provincial nominee programs since June 2012. Well, it's important to have a balanced view of these things. There are so many factors to consider when looking at the employment picture in Canada. As mentioned earlier, if you're looking for a position in Oil and Gas or mining, then by all means head to Alberta and Saskatchewan respectively, or even the Northwest Territories or Northern Ontario, as you will be more likely to find what you want there. If you're interested in the tech industry, then perhaps Waterloo, Ontario, with its tech cluster might work for you. If you want financial services, then Bay Street in Toronto, Ontario is a better choice than St John's, Newfoundland. If you want salmon fishing, then Vancouver might work better for you. If you want construction, well, there are more high rises going up in Toronto than almost anywhere else in the world so that might work for you. If you want to work in a French environment, then head to Quebec. Federal government? Ottawa's probably best. Just ensure you're bilingual. Farming? Take your pick on the provinces. And so on. In Ontario, from personal experience, there are people (including immigrants) I know with very good professional jobs, as well as those looking for jobs, and those who have gone to other provinces for jobs, or even personal/lifestyle preference. Just to give some perspective, the Ontario economy is almost three times that of Alberta, so it might take a while for both economies to change places. Having said that, it's a free country. Do your research, get a balanced view, and make your choice where you want to end up. 1 Like |

@ifegy thanks for the info....please which of the provinces offer better employment opportunities to healthcare proffesionals? Do u think ontario would be a better choice? Pls advice cos thats the province we wrote when we applied for PRV. Though i know it can be changed. Thanks Healthcare need i believe is high in demand everywhere you go in Canada and i want to believe there is even a more pressing demand in provinces where the population density is much like in Ontario. I stand corrected though. But you dont have to worry yourself that much because once you are a professional and you fully integrate yourself into the Canada system you will find your feet on the ground in no time. As a you have filled in Ontario as your destination point in Canada, i will advice you not to change it because from the stage you said your file has gotten to (decision made). Your Confirmation of Permanent Residence document has already been printed out and by the time you get to the Point of Entry the Immigration officer will ask you questions pertaining to your file to be sure that there are no irregularities before you will be granted entry to Canada. So get to your point of destination first before you start changing locations. If your file is a federal skilled worker category you have the advantage of easy moblity when you arrive in Ontario to move to another province before you apply for your citizenship after 3yrs. But if your got your PR through the provincial nominee program then you would be stuck in that province until after 3yrs before you can relocate to another province. Are your the principal applicant ? I would also advice the you key into the professional bridging programs organised by the government of ontario and the professional regulating bodies. Its an opportunity for professional immigrants coming to ontario to enrol in internship programs to fast track them getting their license and granting them canadian work experience and eventual integration into the scheme of things in Canada. 1 Like |

Yes fhemmmy ,the Cliff aversion is a major headache at the moment but from information i read some few days back,the republicans and democrats are soft pedalling on their decision to avert it successfully because if its not it wont only affect the Canadian economy but many world economies as the US economy is networked to all. Its rather unfortunate that the Canadian and US economy are closely tied together to the extent that a strong or weak US economy will have an identical effect to Canada's . But i think the Prime Minister Stephen Harper and his economic team,Flarherty and co are looking for drastic solutions already to salvage the economy just incase. |

From what i know Canadian economy was to a large extent immune from the world recession and was not badly hit like the USA or UK economies so i do not know where your assertions are from @ deniyor LIke I wrote, you can check the statistics. And please don't tell me the Canadian economy was immune from the recession. There are many who felt it deep enough to know what it meant to be in recession. I know many job seekers and people who graduated in the recession and what they faced. Read the news, check the canadian govt website, The canadian economy was very well impacted by the recession. It is mostly recovered now though. And to answer you on where I get my assertions from. I have lived/schooled/worked in 9 cities (including ontario) across 4 provinces in the last 10 years. I have had my share of the recession - having graduated right in it. I felt the recession, felt what it means not to have jobs, and lose the ones you have. So spare me the talk of no recession in canada. |
