If there is any IRCC officer watching these forums and laughing at our hopeless conversations, watching immigrants verbally attack each other.

This question is for you:

Man the wait is much easier with these forums. cicnews sucks ass but gotta thank the admins for the forums. I'm definitely getting the 2005 vbulletin forum vibes here. Very similar brainfuck. Loving it.

The lawyers themselves don't check the forums. It's free reign right now. There are no admins. You can post porn on these forums and no one will delete it.

Those who have been in Canada/lived there: Does numbeo's cost of living comparison show accurate data for Toronto/Vancouver? Data seems a tiny bit outdated for the city where I live, wondering if it is the same with Toronto/Vancouver.Thanks

What data? Where? Below is for Vancouver from my experience and the experiences of those around me:

Decent 1 bedroom apt around downtown: 1700 - 2000 CAD / mo (Utilities may or may not be included. Do your own research on Craigslist)
Salary of fresh MSc grad from (non-software) engineering with zero experience: 65 - 70 thousand CAD / year which roughly translates into 4200 - 4500 CAD / mo net.

Never heard of numbeo but yeah those are the numbers I've seen myself in Vancouver. Afaik Toronto is slightly (but only slightly) cheaper than Vancouver. Pay should be better in Toronto and needless to say there are far more jobs in Toronto. Not sure about income tax BC vs ON.

No need to get yourself confused with numbers. Rule of thumb for Vancouver:

1. Find a gf/bf to split the rent.
2. Get salary of at least 4000 CAD / mo net.
3. Dump your gf/bf if they're making less than 3000 CAD / mo net.
4. Rent 1 bedroom apt and split the rent.
5. Enjoy life in Vancouver until you decide to have kids which is when you need to double your income to buy a 2+ bedroom house (lol... buy a house in Vancouver? yeah right.)
6. Realize 5 is fucking difficult and Kangaroo has been shitting Canada for exactly that.

I think @ImpatientKangaroo is just an alt for @Psyoptica. @Psyoptica had mentioned that he is from Pakistan but currently residing in Europe. The Kangaroo too has mentioned that is currently temporarily residing in Europe.

@Psyoptica has stopped posting and @ImpatientKangaroo does most of the posting now. They rarely post together. @Psyoptica couldn't shit on Canada knowing he belonged to a way worse third world country, so he created The Kangaroo.

If you need to talk more about his you can find me at my residence - 221B, Baker Street, London.

Time to shoot some heroin up my arm. BRB.
Lmao I leave the forum for a few days and come back to this.
My ingleesh is not half as good as @ImpatientKangaroo
