By Merv Carlson


Canada has been regarded as the most ideal country to live in by the UN since 1994 for various reasons. As world's second largest country, rich in natural resources, Canadian economy has greatly flourished in recent years. Those who want to set up their businesses can come and find their opportunities in this developed country.

Hence, the number of unemployed people in Canada is said to be smallest in almost 40 years in comparison with other developed countries like the USA or England. Canada is a also a primary choice for its high living standard. Thanks to the clean and healthy environment, Canadian enjoy their long lifespan. Canada is better than average on both air pollution and water quality measures. Their average lifespan is 80 per person. With high income, most Canadian can afford a comfortable life. For those advantages, Canada has become one of the powerful countries in the world.

The strict immigration rules of Canada cannot prevent people from the UK from choosing it as their favorite country to live. As a matter of fact, more and more Britons are heading to this second largest country. The special link between these two countries which has been existed for ages may function as one reason. This relationship enables those from Britain to easily be accepted in Canada. Another factor is Canada's high living conditions. It is needed for those who wish to immigrate to Canada to have a copy of a points based system which has entered into force since 2003.

Beside language and education, people outside Canada will need to state clearly their work history and their ages. Your age plays an important factor in determining whether you will be accepted as an immigrant to Canada or not. They will determine how much you could be able to contribute to the Canadian economy based on your age. Your ability to adapt to the new environment is also considered.

Up to now, various South Africans who acquired good education and qualification have found comfortable lives in Canada. It is not much difficult for them to look for a suitable work. However, it is better to learn about this country's living condition, and find out as many opportunities as possible before making up your mind. It will help very much when you finally decide to come and find a new life here with your family.

Besides, get yourself acquainted with regional cultures because Canadian cultures are varied and really different from yours. This helps you and your beloved family easily to become a part of Canadian economy later. Choose the city or town where its culture sounds good for you. Last, prepare yourself before making up your decision of immigrating to this developed country because not all African immigrants are satisfied with their choice. Some are disappointed and regretted making such fast choice. However some are really happy with their new life. They now do enjoy the life in a large city.
