:cheers: canada-is fools paradise- for those who think money grows on trees in canada. such people will return if offered more money why? canada demands hard work and honesty. india demands flattery and cheating. Canada is for those only who are fedup with the system in India and want respect and quality life. You offer me a million $ every month I refuse comeback. i would rather stay in Canada for 1500 $/PM. No I am not anti Indian but I love India desparately. You gurantee respect for human,castless society and honesty in the system I will shootback right now-no questions asked----pasha



Your generalizations are too much!

Isnt it true that people who get fed up with the corrupt and pathetic life in India (amongst Indians) come to Canada looking for better infrastructure and very less corrupt society ?

I also feel that Canada should be less racist than US for a simple fact that Canada unlike the US is built and building on Immigrants and a sense of equality is there which is not prevalent in the US where Americans are thoroughly bred over generations .

No place in the world is corruption free - agreed . But the level varies and which becomes a deciding factor .In India where corruption levels may be 8/10 in Canada they may be 4/10 and not affecting every day life .

Dear All,

I knew that this could be a debatable thread and hence kept myself away from it, but after 53 days I have my first remarks.

I asked myself the same question and got the answer that I was having a huge income in INDIA. So Is it really a factor to decide after coming here in my case? NEVER..... Let's do some comperative in my case..

Our take home Household income was Rs. 52,000.00 per month after tax ------- NOW AS ON DATE ONLY MY WIFE IS WORKING AND EARNING A TAKE HOME SALARY OF RS. 75000 (CONVERTED TO INR) IN CANADA.


Taking the example of the working partner, i.e my wife, she used to come back home by 9:30 minimum to worst as 12:00 in the night (thanks to private banking of india). ------ SHE COMES BACK HOME LATEST BY 6:30.


I worked for 14 years in SALES, running here and there in heat, dust on scooter, bike, lastly in car but for Kms and Kms to industrial locations and used to come back after 9:00 or 10:00 at an average. --------- CANADA HAS GIVEN ME A WELL DESERVED BREAK AND I AM ABLE TO AND AFFORD TO RELAX.

I never had sound sleep in INDIA, especially in the last 3 years. I used to see my seniors shouting in the dreams asking for targets and quotas. Many of you will agree to me on how stressfull the INDIAN corporate life is, especially in SALES and that too in INSURANCE/FINANCE Sector. We used to come back early in the morning on the last 5 days of the month, CALLED "CLOSING". ----------- THE WORD CLOSING IS GONE FROM MY LIFE AND CAN YOU BELIEVE I HAVE A WONDERFUL SOUND SLEEP SINCE I HAVE COME HERE.

I worked for 14 years continuously in India ----------- I AM NOT WORKING SINCE LAST 39 DAYS AND IT HAS STILL BECOME POSSIBLE FOR ME TO SPEND ALMOST WHOLE DAY IN THE MISSISSAUGA LIBRARY TO STUDY FURTHER FOR ACQUIRING MY LICENSES TO START MY OWN BUSINESS. (I stopped sharing my updates due to obvious reasons but let me tell you, as you all know I got a job on the 5th day from my landing date but then stopped working on the 10th day from the first day of this job to start studying).

Last but not the least,

Me and my wife practically never had GHAR KA KHANA except sundays in INDIA. We had a tiffeen wala leaving his THANDA KAHANA hooked on our door stopper and we used to heat it in the owen at late night. --------- WE ARE HAVING GHAR KA GARAM KHANA WITH MY WIFE HAVING LOTS OF TIME TO RELAX AND PREPARE FOOD FOR US. IN FACT BEING A FOND OF COOKING I AM ABLE TO HELP HER AND ENJOY COOKING TOGETHER.


I can think of few more examples of positive outcomes, but it depends on every different case. Its good so far for me, but it can be different for someone else. Its my story so far and I AM HAPPY at the moment.

Regards,

VJ.

P.S - As I have said its my case and may not relate to all, hence if somebody does not agree please do not break everything in to pieces and start an endless chain.



Happy

Hi Friends,

I feel that while coming from Inida to canada the money matters and while considering the option of returing from Canada to India, the money is not the motivating factors. There are always some other importnat reasons in addtion to money while deciding the move from Canada to India.

Enjoy happiness

VJ or any other CDesi,
Few points you must have asked yourself or will be asking very soon. They are :
How long you can be on vacation?
Examination & Certification are costly affair, when are you going to realise that and feel money is evaporating in volume everyday.
Did you enjoy responsibility that your company entrusted on you in India?
The most import, do your wife like work here or she was more professionaly satisfied in India?
What about her certification and examination?

Hi Charlie,

My inputs are in BOLD for each of your questions in your post.

VJ or any other CDesi,
Few points you must have asked yourself or will be asking very soon. They are :

How long you can be on vacation?

I AM IN SALES HENCE MOVEMENT OR MOBILITY IS AN UNDETACHED PART OF MY LIFE. IN INDIA I USED TO WIN VACATIONS DUE TO MY PROFESSION AND THE SAME WILL CONTINUE HERE. INITIAL LOCATIONS MAY BE LIKE CUBA, EGYPT ETC... YES I SEE PLENTY OF OPPORTUNITIES FOR VACATIONS IN CANADA THEN INDIA. IF I BOOK A FIVE START RESORT IN INDIA FOR 6/7 DAYS, IT WOULD BE HIGHLY EXPENSIVE BUT HERE I HAVE HEARD THAT YOU CAN SEE THE WORLD IN LESSER COST. HOWEVER I HAVE YET TO VERIFY THE SAME. IN INDIA AFTER SPENDING 33 YEARS I COULD NEVER SEE KASHMIR DUE TO WORKING LIFE, but HERE I AM GONNA MAKE SURE I MOVE OUT TO SEE THE BEUTIFUL WORLD. "SAB BHUMI GOPAL KI".

Examination & Certification are costly affair, when are you going to
realise that and feel money is evaporating in volume everyday.

NO I FULLY DIAGREE TO THIS, I HAD MADE AN EXCEL SHEET OF MY FUND FLOW IN CANADA OF THE FIRST ONE YEAR BEFORE COMING. IN FACT I DID NOT PUT ANYTHING ON PLUS SIDE FOR THE FIRST 3 MONTHS AND SHOWED SETTLEMENT FUNDS GOING AWAY @ 2000 CAD/MONTH. AND THEN SHOWED 2000 CAD/MONTH ON PLUS SIDE FROM THE 4TH MONTH. THE INCOME STARTED FROM THE VERY FIRST MONTH, MOREOVER PLEASE REALISE THAT YOU HAVE TO INVEST SOMETHING TO GAIN MORE. EXAMS AND CERTIFICATIONS ARE YOUR ENHANCERS, THEY ARE NOT EXPENSES. ONE MUST INVEST IN THE SAME TO BE MORE SALEABLE IN THE JOB/BUSINESS MARKET. SO I AM GONNA INVEST AT LEAST 3000 CAD TO ADD MORE ZEROS IN FUTURE IN THAT FIGURE.


Did you enjoy responsibility that your company entrusted on you in India?

THE WORD RESPONSIBILITY HAS A VERY DEEP SCIENCE. OIT DOES NOT MATTER WHETHER YOU ARE WORKING IN INDIA OR CANADA. FIRST I BELIEVE YOU SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE TO YOUR OWN LIFE. YOUR FOCUSED APPROACH TO ACHIEVE YOUR SET TARGETS AUTOMATICALLY MAKES YOU MORE AND MORE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY THING YOU DO. SEE YOU CAN'T HAVE EVERYTHING, YES I WAS A SENIOR MEMEBR IN MY COMPANY AND HENCE HAD JUSTIFYING RESPONSIBILITIES AS PER THAT ROLE. EVERY "KRA" (key result area) IS DIRECTLY PROPORTIONATE TO THE ROLE. I HAVE A DIFFERENT ROLE HERE AND I AM ENJOYING THE RESPONSIBILITIES THE ROLE HAS PUT ON ME. THE END RESULTS OR THE GOAL IS THE SAME........"SUCCESS".

The most import, do your wife like work here or she was more professionaly satisfied in India?

WELL SHE HAS BEEN A BANKER SINCE LAST 5 YEARS NOW. FOR ANY PROFESSIONAL, WHEN HE OR SHE ENTERS IN WORK AREA OF THE SAME FIELD, PLACE DOES NOT MATTER. IN FACT FOR HER ITS MORE ENHANCED. YOU WILL SURELY AGREE THAT WORKING ON KINGS STREET IS EVERY PROFESSIONAL'S WISH AND SHE GOT IT FROM THE 39TH DAY OF HER LANDING. SHE TRAVELS BY GO TRAIN, WHICH TAKES HER IN FEW MINUTES TO HER DESTINATION. AS AT BOTH THE ENDS IT WAS BANKING FOR HER, SHE IS MORE THEN HAPPY.

What about her certification and examination?

YES, SHE WOULD SURELY HAVE TO UPGRADE HER PROFILE BY ADDING MORE CERTIFICATIONS. SHE WOULD START HER CSC VERY SOON. THATS WHAT THE PLAN IS. "WORK..EARN..LEARN........AND FINALLY MORE & MORE EARN".




Once again its my case, can't be the same for all.

Regards,

VJ.
