10 Reasons why you should move to Canada:
I have spent a good amount of time in Montreal, Canada to witness the lifestyle Canada has to offer. Canada is one of its kind country in the entire world from really sweet people to over welcoming government to a world-class education. Canada offers everything. Below are the 10 reasons why you should consider moving to Canada:
1. Free education for kids: Yes there are no tuition fees involved for children studying from kindergarten up to grade 12. This freedom can be enjoyed by the citizens of Canada, people with valid work permits, and even students on their student visas. Isn’t fascinating that your kid receives world-class education that too for free?
2. Clean Air to breathe: Trust me this might not sound like a huge reason but wait until you are in your late 40s; There comes a point in life for everyone when they realize that health is the outermost priority. Canada has to offer a smoke-free, dust-free, and pollution-free environment. You might get to avoid major diseases and live a fulfilled life thanks to the clean air around you. Your lungs will thank you within a month of you moving to Canada.
3. Free Healthcare: Imagine getting free consultations from doctors, free medicine, and even better free treatments every time you visit a hospital. This is only possible in Canada. One of the biggest attractions for immigrants is free healthcare by the Canadian government. You can get your medical card within 2 months after moving to Canada that's all you need for your free healthcare provision.
4. Citizenship in just 3 years: If you have Permanent Residence and have stayed in Canada as a PR holder for 1095 days out of the total 5 years. If You know either English or French. If you have filed your taxes for 3 years out of those 5 years well that’s all it takes to be a Canadian. You do not have to have a house or need a recommendation from any big shot Canadian resident to be a Canadian. Getting citizenship can not get any simpler so yes if you have a dream of settling in any western country then Canada is the country for you.
5. Safe and secure: In a conversation, I had with the cab driver; He mentioned how similar Canada is to the United States. He stated that Canada is very much like the United States except for the guns he chuckled. In my time in Canada, I had never seen any violence or any protest. People feel secure because it takes less than 10 minutes for 5 police cars to arrive at your doorstep. 911 takes you more seriously than you take yourself for that matter. You are valued and Canada makes sure you get a sound sleep every night.
6. People are happier: Canada ranks 7th in World’s happiness report ranking. Trust me this is not an easy feat to achieve. The rankings were measured on 6 most important factors. People are generally nicer to you. Get used to the good mornings from a smiling stranger every time you are out. Almost zero racism and no corruption is a huge reason for you to actually consider Canada. Happiness is a top priority for Canadians, unlike other countries where it is a luxury.
7. Dominating Currency: Canadian dollar ranks 11th in the list of strongest currency from the world. 95% chances are you are from a country with a currency lesser in dominance than the Canadian dollar. If you want to earn well for a couple of years and then go back to your country with a fortune; Canada can be the country for you. Canadian dollars can make you feel extremely rich and can take you to 95% of countries for vacations without you caring for your wallet.
8. Awesome amusement options: Canada offers outstanding nightlife, amusement parks, picnic parks, and beautiful roads. Sports cars are inexpensive as well. Ford’s Mustang is just around 40,000 dollars and I bet it does not get cheaper than this. You get to travel to beautiful exotic locations not far from the city. You get to see lots of wildlife as well including iconic polar bears. Let's not forget the mesmerizing Niagara Falls. Canada is overall heaven in disguise for most immigrants.
9. Government Schemes: Canadian government provided 2000 dollars to everyone who lost their job during Covid-19. Trust me I was one of the beneficiaries for the same. The steps to get the same were extremely simple as well. The scheme was for 52 weeks which is enough for you to get another job. This is how supportive the government was during the pandemic. Not just covid but the scheme covered other unfortunate events as well. The government provides you paid vacations in case you are going through any trauma this is how serious Canada is when it comes to mental illness.This is a brilliant initiative by any government in the entire world.
10. Inexpensive lifestyle: Hear me out before you judge me; Yes Canada might be a bit expensive especially Toronto and Vancouver but the lifestyle it offers is beyond any dream. Weed is legal and whiskeys are really inexpensive. You get to enjoy any fruit from around the world all year long. You will get to enjoy any country’s delicacy. The pay you get is way too much that nothing will seem expensive to you. A minimum wage of 14 dollars an hour is good enough for anyone to live a luxurious life.
