    I know that this video is 1 year ago, but better late than never. Welcome to Canada. I moved to Canada as a landed immigrant with my parents and 2 of my 4 older siblings in 1990. I remember that day like it was yesterday, I remember flying on the L-1011 TriStar 500 (miss that plane) with everything we owned and then waking up the next morning and seeing snow for the first time. Even though I have lived here longer than in the country of my birth, I identify as a dual citizen, still a Trini, but also a Canadian. Back then, it was a lot harder to move to Canada, but now I think the process is a lot easier, because as you said, Canada needs skilled workers, but what is hard is the high cost of living and the damn taxes and it's on everything.

    First time I saw your video of moving to canada was yesterday November 18th 2023, and I kidd you not, for a very long time I want to move to canada, i do however have kids and going through a divorce, but so far your videos are inspiring me to continue pushing forward and I hope one day I will be there God spare life, I know its not much of your videos I watched but its enough for me, because somewhere in the back of my mind I had this notion that only a certain type of people get the opportunity, not that I am not happy for them but because I felt like I don't check some of the boxes to come there😢, however your story give me a different perspective. 😊 congratulations to you 👏 ❤ keep moving forward. 🎉

      I'd be afraid to. 1 of many reasons is due to the fact I could not afford to finish my Bachelor's degree so I don't think they'd view me as an asset (skilled individual). Picking apples might be my only option. Not that I'm looking down on that but it's sad my 7 CXCs & Certificate in BM is useless outside.
