本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛I know this is a large subject which it cannot be completely covered in such a short article. What make me write this article is many people ask question like that,many people think about this question before they come to Canada and I was also puzzled about it for a long time before I came to Canada. There are something I want to say before I begin. First,I just want to give my personal view about it. So if you have different ideas you can discuss with me and other people. Secondly,what I talk is to try to give general idea to help one make his decision if one is puzzled about it. If one have made his decision determinedly or one have a good reason to come or not to come to Canada ,of course this article doesnot apply to him.

Now it is time to discuss first who should not come to Canada in general.The following people should consider very carefully before they come to Canada:

1.one's age is over 35 or 40, and english is not good especially feel difficult to listen and to speak.

2.one's age is over 35 or 40, and his major is hard to find a decent job in Canada.

3.one's age is over 35 or 40, and his major is good but his skill doesnot match the mareket of Canada.

4.one's age is over 35 or 40, and the main reason is for his child. If one have to do labour work in Canada to support his family until they become citizens, the better choice is not to come to Canada. In this way,you and your wife sacrifice too much. There will be quarrels about it in the future. Everyone just have one life.Remember a chinese old saying,"Chidren have their own happiness,donot work as a horse or cow for them!".

5.one's salay is above 10000RMB in ShenZhen,GuangZhou,BeiJing,ShaiHai or 6000RMB in other inland cities,donot come to Canada unless you are eager to live abroad. You leave your relatives,your friends,your culture,your achievments and you cannot expect to have a much better life here.

6.If one donot have strong english and good skills that match the market here and one are basically satisfy with your life in china ,the better choice is not to come.

7.If one have great relationship with department of govenment in china or one get money easy no matter legal or illegal,of couse you should not come.

Then what kind of people should come to Canada in general:

1.one's age is under 28 and have a willing to go abroad,you can come because you are young.

2. one's english is good and have good skills that match the market here,you should come.

3.one's salary is too low and even doing a labour work will make him happy,you should come.

4.one have a strong willing to go abroad and can keep a good mood at any time ,you should come.

5.one plan to go to a university in Canada,and one can get a good score on Tofel and GRE,you should come but had better take all these tests in china.

For those people who are not included ,it means you can come or donnot come. It just depends on you. However,if you want to ask whether Canada is good or not,it is an another large subject. But if you just want a simple answer, I can give you one . I'd like to use this simple answer as a ending to my article. "Whether canada is good or not, it is good only if you can get a decent job. "
