Congrats @ freeradical. Question for the house: Family PR cards, are they sent together? For e.g, if one of the members is asked to send another picture, will all be delayed and sent together when all has been approved? |

freeradical: Congrats @freeradical. I wish even if just 10% of our landed compatriots can have this predisposition to giving back to the Canny threads whenever they arrive, it would have gone a long way in shaping people's decision but our naija folks sha..hmmmm ![]() You have yet again reinforced my firm conviction of what is the normal thing to do- help those coming behind with practical info of what's on ground over there so that they can make more informed decisions and choices....just like great minds like Blackbuddy, Maternal, Vcole, et al. It is surely ending in praise IJN! 11 Likes |

Hafsat24: Just has you mentioned, people settle at different times. Some settle fast and others could take years especially for those in regulated professions. Adapting to a new country and trying to have an idea of how the system works take time too. Taking care of kids, searching for jobs, moving around etc. would make you forget about nairaland for a while. 15 Likes 1 Share |

salford1:God bless you ....i like your openness....from my observation is that the fear of poverty make us in Nigeria to accumulate money, houses etc but we are not living we just there the develop world mindset is different from Nigeria 4 Likes |

Deebay:Your choice of airline will only be determined by your pocket size or how much u r willing to spend on flight against d level of comfort u desire through d journey. We used Royal air maroc and it wasn't bad. Had a 9hr layover at Montreal airport and that was enough to complete our landing formalities. Anything up to 3hours will be fine for the landing. Congratulations on your PPR. I really share in your excitement 3 Likes 1 Share |

Wow! Big congrats @Free radical! Your story is really inspiring. Hubby has been singing Edmonton since but I've been more inclined to Calgary/Regina, this is making me have a re-think. Thanks for sharing! Pls, which areas are cool in Edmonton?

@maternal, giving God the deserved thanks and honor in seeing us through good and difficult times is not a naija thing but a personal thing. I just hope people don't get to Canada where things seem to work and feel no need to reverence God again. Without Him, we are nothing both in Naija or Canada or anywhere else in the world. This is just my thought. Cheers!! maternal: 37 Likes 1 Share |

When did you submit your passports pls? CAstruggle: |
Re: Living In Canada/Life As A Canadian Immigrant by vascey(m): 8:11pm On Dec 19, 2017 |
Virt: Please understand Maternal. He's not saying you should not give God glory but in naija when someone works hard and prepares well, it should be properly acknowledged. The reason is simple. When you say "na God", a lazy person will sit on their arse and expect magic. Heavens 6 Likes |

TEECANN: The gov't of Canada spends millions of dollars each year to help bridge immigrants into the system so they can become successful. A good amount don't use it. A lot don't even take sound advice from knowledgeable people on the ground. 7 Likes |

Bsbabe: I am deeply sorry I cant access the messages sent to me via pm. When I first opened my Nairaland account, I may have used a temporary email address. I have been trying to associate my current email address to my nairaland account but to not avail. |
