CanadianNurse:Crime rate probably not as bad as anywhere in Nigeria. There are lots of Nigerians in Brandon and Winnipeg. imo, i would try to to avoid residential areas around downtown. For whatsoever reasons, bad people try to live or operate around those places. i dont want to mention a particular race to avoid stereotypes. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Someone in Canada on a study permits wants to travel outside of Canada for a holiday, what does he need to do to be able to come back into Canada? Does he need to apply for visa again? Or the study permit is enough document? Is the temporary resident visa multiple entry? @salford1 @chimah3 and other senior bosses |

Good evening seniors in the house. Please I am in a dilemma. I need an advice. I have a bsc in microbiology. I also have 11 years banking experience. I am a PR hopeful. I intend to go back to school and study nursing once I land in Canada as I believe Nursing jobs are more readily available in any city I find my self. But on the other hand I am wondering if its better for me to continue my banking career over there. Please advice me. As this decision will inform my choice of city of settlement. Nb I am married with 3 kids if it helps. Thank you. |

CanadianNurse: Yup! It's multiple entry! 'This visa has been affixed in your passport, and is valid for multiple visits to Canada until it expires. If you obtain a new passport before your visa expires, you will need to apply for a new visa.' Na so them dey write am for page 2 of your approval letter! 4 Likes |

CanadianNurse: From Canada Immigration website http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/study/study-extend.asp#student_travel As a foreign student, can I return home or travel outside Canada during my studies? Yes. However, a study permit isn’t a travel document. It doesn’t give you the right to travel to Canada. Along with your permit, you need either: a temporary resident visa or an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) Having an eTA or a visa, along with your study permit, doesn’t guarantee that we will let you back into Canada. You must show the border services officer that you meet all the requirements before we will let you re-enter. 2 Likes |

chimah3:so the study permit and temporary resident visa have the same expiry date? |
Re: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant by salford1: 4:58pm On Jun 11, 2017 |
Generalmerchant:Honestly..the decision is up to you...whichever one rocks your boat. I worked for some years in a UK bank, but returned to the Engineering profession in Canada. That is one of the things i love about this country; their are lots of opportunities to be whatever you want to be.. If you decide to stay in the financial sector, toronto area might be your best option as advised by others on this thread. What you would find common in other cities are branch banking if you do not mind. 9 Likes |

CanadianNurse: My dear that one I no know. All I know is that they stamp your passport with study permit and your expiration date is always boldly indicated on it! |

I was on gofundme looking for something else when I saw this. https://www.gofundme.com/nicholas-nwonye I recall someone here mentioned safety in some downtown areas and public transport, and forgive me if I'm wrong a good number of the culprits for crimes and attacks being indigenous people, like in this case. This story is very sad. He moved his family to Canny surely to give them a better life and evidently was hardworking, already training to re-start in a new career despite his age..True Grit! http://calgaryherald.com/news/crime/stabbed-by-a-stranger-on-ctrain-platform-nigerian-immigrant-is-mourned-for-his-kindness http://calgaryherald.com/news/local-news/calgary-police-charge-man-in-fridays-fatal-lrt-stabbing I'm just speechless, sad and now fearful, because it can be any of us...those already there now and those of us still working on making the move. May God give his family the the fortitude to bear the loss. 11 Likes |

studyexec:Yes its very unfortunate but the truth is it can also happen in Nigeria.In fact ,worse happens everyday but goes undocumented or publicised because of lack of CCTV in public places and parks hence,it looks like Nigeria is better, na lie. In this case,it is certain that the widow will get justice,aid and eventual closure! How guaranteed are the above in Nigeria ? Anywhere we find ourselves we always will need to pray each minute and day for Gods protection. 16 Likes 1 Share |

Hello Everyone, I am new here, just starting our EE process, hopefully to come over 2018. We are still trying to decide on a province, based on research, this thread, family and friends, we are looking at Ontario, Calgary and BC. I have as a Logistics pofessional in the oil and Gas sector for over 10years but i am thinking of switching careers to either teaching or nursing for better pay and having time with the kids(2 below 5yrs). My hubby is a planning engineer with the same job experience, so which area would be a likely area for us to settle. We are looking for something not too busy, job prospect and childcare costs not expensive. Thanks for the response. 1 Like |
