What type of school these Canadian Returns prefer for their children. CBSE or something else?
jayaram--Very well said--I appreciate your reply
This means in the next five years the number of Indian immigrants will slowly trickle down to a level that then only non professionally qualified people will feel it worthwile to immigrate. 
Then the returnees will have a new website called Canadian Indian Desi's

You know you are a desi when ........ You spew forth the virtues of India, but don't want to live there...............You've never had a tanning salon membership

CBSE and ICSE are both good. But dont go for board syllabus. They are more or less like govt schools. Thre is also ivy syllabus but very few schools offer that.

He may try to take advantage of some Social security and Old age pension plans later!
CPP- Don't bet on it.
I was reading this book, written by Garth Turner (Member of Parliament, a business man, and a financial expert). As per his 1999 predictions, the CPP funds managed by CIPIB would have reached $88 billion by 2008 (however, as of Sep 2007, CPP sits at $121.3 billion). http://www.cppib.ca/Default.html
As per his predictions, which are also shared by many other like minded economists, by the time the baby boomers retire, the no. of seniors will have tripled, which means by 2015 or later, the CPP will face an annual cash requirement of more than $50 billion (unless benefits are reduced).
The bottom line, as per the experts, don't depend upon CPP.

There never is a 'Yes' or 'No' answer or 'Right' or 'wrong' decision. It is just a choice. And choice is a matter of a long list of personal reasons.

One of my good friends who had a fairly decent job of $23 per hour is going back to India. He was a Canadian Citizen but when I asked him the reason of going back he smiled and said that money is not everything. you need to have a life and that life is in India not Canada. \"Life is short so live your life.\" he told me that he had seen enough of Canada and now is going back to his parents, brothers and sisters. he is just 34 now. I was stunned by his decision that how can one kick such a good job and go back but now i think he is right. you can earn a living here but not life what do u think guys???????????
For sure, money is not everything. IMO there is no life in Canada. When a festival comes along, we invite friends over, when our own families back home are alone with no one to celebrate with them. The very same parents who took care of us, are today left to fend for themselves when they are ill. The most we do is put a phone call or send money. When we were little and fell ill, our parents spent sleepless nights caring for us, but today we have abandoned them by leaving them to age in loneliness.
