Moving to Toronto.
Hi, I will be moving to Canada (ON) within few weeks, what are the things should I keep in mind.
I have few doubts
1. is recession that bad?, will be reamin the same in 2024?
2. what about employment in tech sector?, (give me heads up)
3. Suddenly there is a negative opinion about moving to Canada? Should I be concerned? ( excluding housing crysis)
4. And other things a new IN studnt should be aware of...
5. How to increase the probality of getting selected in co-op excluding good GPA and good github profile? (if that's possible)
I dont wanna flip burgers after I graduate, so help me out btw I took CPA (Newham Campus)
Thanks in advance!

These are all my personal opinion.
1. It’s not “bad”, but it’s worse than it was 5 years ago. I don’t know exactly what the future holds, but we are in a period of economical restructuring due to the war in Ukraine and post COVID inflation/spending catching up to us. Expect this to last a while.
2. Employment is still very possible, skilled workers are always in demand. Being entry level makes this harder, but with some connections still totally doable.
3. Our government is definitely overstepping and irresponsibly spending and preventing necessary development to keep Canada as a leader in terms of quality of life and freedom. Hopefully the liberals get kicked out next election and Pierre gets elected and takes the action he claims he will - I love his ideas and ambition, but am skeptical how much he will accomplish before he’s stopped by those above him. But Canada is still a great place to live all things considered, compared to the rest of the world.
4. Can’t comment, I was born here so Canada is my norm
5. Build a network. Make connections. They will open doors for you. Attend events, message people on LinkedIn, whatever you can come up with. Do not underestimate the importance of this. Without a network your odds are tiny. Then of course some great projects on your resume will seal the deal by acting as proof of your competence and giving conversation topics at interviews
my computer isn't powerful enough to run housing crysis
Alright man, thank you so much really appreciate it...
Thanks again
