Okay, I understand. Some people just like to eat rat poison.

Na wa oh. Madam calm down. People have /are surviving with this "rat poison".

No food industry in any country is perfect, including Canada. You should educate yourself about GMO foods before you condemn 9ja's "rat poison"

It is cheaper, with ur thinking everything in Nigeria is in Canada, does that mean one should not carry anything?
carry things that are expensive here like Nigerian spices and other foods stuff. Frozen Palm oil is understandable but why person go carry groundnut oil come, powdered milk, grin angry.

Many graduates coming from Nigeria usually underestimate the amount of work it takes to do graduate school in developed countries like Canada and the US. Contrary to what most people think, graduate school in these countries is actually very difficult. Usually there is a lot of assignments and homeworks, and this is not something the Nigerian student is used to. Besides, most of the concepts are not discussed at a high-level, but usually a more detailed often difficult low-level filled with maths (for STEM) or lots of readings (for Management). This can be a very big problem for the Nigerian student who isn't used to this method of study. But the good news is that if you do not give up, you will succeed. It may appear difficult, but if you put in the required effort, ask for help from your professors or from fellow students, you will eventually understand. My advice to you is to dig deep within you and find that extra effort to succeed. Don't give up. Having a kid is not an excuse. There have been many people like you who made it eventually through graduate school. You just need to tell yourself that you can do it.

So the milk you grew up with is now rat poison undecided
Except you were born and bred in Canada sha grin

I'm sure there are many things you grew up with in Nigeria that you now find are bad practices in Canada. You'll probably ignore that and continue bringing your milk from Nigeria, anyways. I don't want to engage you in unnecessary arguments, but it baffles me that you do not realize this your dependence on Nigerian milk is simply brain conditioning. Yes, even your brain can make you do bad things without you realizing it. Just sit back for a minute and look from the outside. Tell your brain to readjust itself, and you'll see why you are approaching things wrongly bringing possibly bad milk from Nigeria to Canada. I'm sure you do not realize that things like poor quality feed, lack of adequate regulatory supervision, inadequate diary infrastructure all contribute to the production of low quality milk in a country like Nigeria. But instead, you'll probably go into a fit after reading this my response now, thinking "how dare she tells me this!?"

You shouldn't be scared. Just be ready to put in the right preparations. These countries never abandon a determined student.

Hi Guys,
I'll be travelling to canada for study next month. Although my school is in Ontario, I plan to stay in winnipeg during the fall session. The fall session is online and I have family to stay with in winnipeg.
I'm wondering if I can go straight to winnipeg once I land in Toronto or if this would cause issues for me at Point of entry.
Any opinion or advise would be appreciated.

Please family, I honestly need your clarification on this matter as am on a very tight corner now.

I arrived Canada in May with a student Visa, I paid my first semester fee before coming and recently paid for 2nd Semester fee with the intention that I'll complete my program. However, as a mature student with unique situation and a child here, It's been too much struggle for me and it's already affecting my grades.

Lately, am beginning to consider other easier or better options of getting PR without violating the and conditions of my study permit, one of which is the Pilot program for Child Care giver/Personal Worker.

1.) Please does a study permit holder qualify for it?

2.) If yes, are there any implication? Like, misrepresentation issue?

3.) Is there any other better option for me as I realized am not ready for studies now considering the stress I went through before coming here to face study stress again.

4.) If it's possible, which province is more favorable as am willing to relocate anywhere to achieve the PR/Citizenship dream?

5.) Is it necessary to withdraw my husband's SOWP application to avoid misrepresentation issue?

6.) I still have plans to go back to school, but that will be after settling down, this time as part-time

Please I'd really appreciate your contribution on this matter so as to make the right decision on time before losing my 2nd Semester fee as there's deadline for withdrawal.

Thank you all in advance.

How long is your program? What exactly is the cause of stress? How best can you manage things for the rest of your duration?

In my opinion, try find a way to manage everything and finish your program to avoid unnecessary drama.

Lagbaja88:
this is why I usually laugh when people attempt this. You came as a student to study not to do psw, your best bet is to return your child to Nigeria, complete your studies. Looks for job and apply for pr using provinces nomination or cec. This is a lesson to many who think they can easily hustle their schools fees. If you dont have money or a sponsor stay away from Canada

People did in the past and many are still doing. It may lead to an extension of the initial duration of study however, it is not impossible.

Thank you for your contribution, am actually not working and don't intend to, at least till my program is over as I cannot handle the two at same time. Only studies alone is giving me this headache not to talk of adding work to it.
Am looking at other options to PR aside studies, otherwise am considering going back to Nigeria.

Why not reduce your course load per semester?

Try fm exchange, lemonade finance, ping express etc.

Though I think FM Exchange may be your best bet since you're looking to buy cad. Lots of these other companies give you naira.
