Canada

if u get a job ur all set but its initally tough to get the job in ur domain

US advantages
Dream country
best job market in the world for professionals
great weather in california and texas/florida and have lotsa choices'
minimum salary of 1500 to 1600 per month
low cost of living especially in texas and similar states

What's ur choice based on ur findings....

US is the dream country for all indians-US is the best with great weather
since its the least racist(after sometime money takes a backseat-u want respect and pride)
whites in US are jus 65%
Canada is more racist than US
Aus is more racist than canada
ultimately my destination is USA

Even if u get US citizenship or canadian citizenship u wud remain an indian in indentity
Be proud of being an indian-india was the richest country until 1800 and had 32% of world GDP(google it confirm!!!!!)
we cudnt maintain the same progress due to lack of unity and poor and selfish governance/leadership


dont try to imitate western accent atleast with fellow indians!
english is a language jus like punjabi or hindi or tamil
Be proud of being an indian
We are rich in family culture and western society is left with mainly single moms and dads
