Congrats, when did your wp started being eligibility in progress? Mine is still eligibility not started ‍♂️

Anyone applied in Oct? Any news? Mine is still eligibility not started.

Not like they would ever qualify for any PNP except some Arctic provinces

Yea tech salaries in Canada are higher than most parts of EU. Want me to show you proof? Check out salaries from Microsoft in Tonronto vs in Berlin you’ll know. They adjust the salaries based on the local market so it should be pretty accurate (HRs in those big tech companies know better than us)

There is definitely more emphasis on diversity and inclusion among US companies than Canadian counterparts. Like we don’t even use the word “whitelist” “blacklist” anymore instead it’s “allowlist” and “blocklist”

One good thing about Canada is that the salaries in tech are going up pretty quickly (not as fast as the US though). It’s hard to find enough tech people in the US now (thanks to Covid). Salaries here are still much better than EU except for Switzerland and Israel.

There is no private healthcare, only private health insurance, you still get to enjoy the wait time even if ur paying for your insurance. On top of that you don’t get to see a specialist without a GP referral. Now it takes like 2 weeks to see a GP and 4-6 months to see a specialist in big...

Be careful what you wish for. I was longing of coming here when I was in the US too. Have you lived in Canada before? I think a person who lived in both countries for years might be a better judge.

I mean yea, but why would I lie?

I guess in my conclusion the only upsides of Canada are: 1. Safer. 2. Easier immigration wise

Oh don’t even get me started on the healthcare part. If you wanna see a doctor, do expect 4-6 months of wait. In the US if you have a half decent job the expenses will be covered by health insurances, just pay you maximum 1000$ deductible. I am pretty sure you can save the 1000$ you spend on...

yea but what did you do in the last 5 years?

What is better in Canada than the US? I guess gun control and safety only?

The whole immigration system has been a clown fiesta over last year. No wonder everything here goes “south”.

Canada doesn’t have that many high paying office jobs, they need more cheap labor, care takers, plumbers etc. The only high paying foreigners they really need are doctors and software engineers.

My current employer trynna low ball me hard in the US just cuz I’m on L-1, I kinda refuse to be the victim. I’ll wait until April to see if BOWP comes down or not, cash out my yearly RSU stocks and gtfo of this soul sucking company.

Yea but the new company pays * 1.5 than the job in the USA. I’ll wait until April if BOWP doesn’t come down I’m out.

Why would I?

36 months how? Last October the time was 20.4 months. If you add 12 months on top of that, that’s not 36 months. How about PNP?

Prioritizing PNP my ass
