Default ********* Why Canada sucks ??? *********

This is for those of you fools who think Canada
is the perfect country to go to.

Here are some facts about Canada and particulary cities like Toronto:

1- Canada is NOT a merit-based country, which means that your education
and your credentials doesn't count at all here.

2- Canadians stand for nothing !!! These people have no enthusiasm, no
conviction in anything, no fun in their sorry lives, no heros, and
no future.

3- There is no such thing as Canadian dream like you have in mighty US.

4- Canadian life specially here in Toronto is to work like a dog until you
die.

5- This is the worst county for single, professionals like me.
I came to this county two years ago and I found out that just
about everything sucks in here, first and foremost Canadian mentality.

6- if you are an ambitious person this is not a country for you. Go to US
instead.

7- I have 75000 per year salary and a high tech job, but I can wait 'til
I'm outta this dumpster.

Your opinion. But, obviously, you are the minority.

Hey Chill out!!
I am also an immigrant and living in Canada for 3 years and I love it. I think this is the best country to live.
You are right! Canada does not deserves a loser like u. If you say that you are in high tech job and living in Canada for three years then probably u would have tried a job in the USA under NAFTA. Let me guess they did not want u either! Here in North America everyone works hard and enjoy the life. So please do Canada and yourself a favor, Go back to your country.

no, he is not the minority. A lot people here in Ottawa have the same
opinion. I agree too. Canada sucks unless you are from a country where there
will be a war or extremely poor or the policy is extremely unhuman.

Well I donot know which group are you hanging with but according to recent studies Canada is among the top six best place to live in.
Someone in this newsgroup have already already pointed out that Canada does not differentiate the education system of different countries. So some people immigrated to Canada under Skilled worker category with substandard education degree hoping to will six figure salary with little effort. But when they come to Canada they realize that they have to compete with talented people from all over the world. So the people who slipped through the immigration process under Skilled worker category screens out in job hunting. This is not Canada's fault that they were incompetent in the first place. These are the people who starts cursing Canada..Well sorry if you donot like then go back to your respective countries.
Canada did not come to your home begging to immigrate but it was your decision.

As an immigrant myself, soon to be in possession of my Canadian
citizenship, I think I speak for everyone here when I say...

...don't let the door hit you on the ass on the way out.

Funny, I come from Australia and think my life has improved. If you
don't like it, you could always leave. Noone is keeping you here, ya
whinging bastard.

If you're Australian as you've said on a different post, you should be
aware (if you're not already) that you will be able to keep your
Australian citizenship after you become Canadian.

Australia's law changed on 4 April 2002.

This is just a bunch of subjective claims without a single
shred of evidence to support them.
In addition, it's full of cliches, ambiguous words, emotional
statements and loaded language, such as "you fools", "perfect
country", "merit-based country", "stand for nothing", "enthusiasm",
"conviction", "sorry lives", "no heroes", "no future", "mighty US",
"work like a dog", "everything sucks", "Canadian mentality",
"ambitious person", "this dumpster".

Needless to say, this is not a valid argument.
The author is quite possibly a frustrated, depressed individual,
with serious problems in personal life - obviously, in this case
requiring professional help. Or maybe he just wanted
to provoke some kind of fiery debate - obviously, this is not
a good way to start a *serious* debate.

Why even bother discussing it?

Thanks for posting that. I was well aware, and my Canadian application
went in as soon as the legislation was submitted to the Aussie parliament.
;-) I was going to get my citizenship anyways, but as soon as I knew I
could have dual, well...in it went! :-)

Actually, please do give it a try as we would have one less know it all whiner to put up with.
