The Canadian dream is long dead. Go to YouTube and search "why people are leaving Canada". Many have regretted going to Canada.

I'm currently in Canada. It's not as easy as it used to be in terms of getting a job. If you have a good job in Ghana I beg stay. If you would like to school here and improve yourself that's ok .

Some of these advice should thrown into the marines. Look, a 1000 Cedis savings can take u about 12 to 15yrs before u can buy a basic Corolla car. This is when u don’t consider anything like health, building, and other support services. Most of the workers in Ghana steal to augment their salaries . The truth is about work permit acquisition and not difficulty in finding jobs. This is what the inexperienced need to know before making a decision to travel.

This increase in number of international students is sometimes only for their money. The quality of education is not always superior. Some schools let you pay huge sums, sometimes over 4 times what locals pay only for you to go and get classes On-line. The outcomes are not always what people intended for. The Canadian government itself recognizes the money making scam is when it comes to International student. But Imagine the billion Canada makes from International students, after which they send pittances to these countries as aid. And finding a job afterwards also becomes a nightmare, yet they keep hauling in international student. I think its all a big scam.

The day Africans will become sensible is the only time Africa especially Ghana will develop..Travelling is not for everyone..As much as travelling is good sometimes, it’s not for everyone..these Canadian Govt is using education as a means of brain drain from most African countries which in turn becomes beneficial to the Canadian society..if u were not a hustler In Ghana, traveling abroad is a big NO and total waste of time..Traveling abroad is purely for hustlers..but now even dbees In Ghana want to travel to go and suffer..Some people were doing well In Ghana especially with business, as soon as they were about to get their break through, they left everything behind just to start all over..Africans in general don’t have the waiting spirit..The average African is always in a haste to become rich and that’s the downfall of our continent and most African countries..I can tell u for a fact that a lot of Ghanaians In Ghana are doing well than those staying abroad and that’s just a fact..I wish them well but nowhere is cool in this world..

This is nothing to be proud of. It is from mined point of view a systemic idea of needing to equip and hopefully they come back or at best part to the home front. You and Nigerians think going abroad us the biggest thing for family. In Southern Africa we stay at home and solve local problems. They come to us.
