    Of course there are. Like I said Canada is not perfect (I personally believe perfection will be found when I get to heaven). For example I don't like the winter at all. In Nigeria you have only one set of car tires, and you don't change your wardrobe with the seasons. Here you get used to...

The Canadian border agent just asked us what we are coming to Canada for. We told her we were there to formalize PR. She then asked where we lived in Canada and what we...

    Depending on circumstances and the requirements from the Landlord, you should be able to buy a prepaid visa or mastercard debit card from Walmart / Shoppers drugmart and use that. I am not sure you will be able to get your card sameday in any bank here.

    I went to the Brampton Drivetest center. My Nigerian driving license was released back to me. But I had to present letter from the Nigerian embassy confirming the details on the driving license. If I remember correctly, that letter was not returned to me. That was in 2014 though so some rules...
