Op die Why South Africa Sucks Blog, is daar 'n vraag gevra aan Suid
Afrikaners wat oorsee bly, om te vertel van die nuwe land waar hulle nou
bly, en om raad te gee aan enige persoon wat moontlik belang sou stel om
daarheen te gaan.
Die volgende is wat 'n ou van Kanada te se het -
If anyone wants to ask questions about Canada that I have not clarified
here, feel free to email me at meck...@bellnet.ca or if I can be helpful in
any way (just don't ask for money...lol). Oh, and no questions are necessary
as to why I am a cynical prick, it's all in my book. But a quick recap... I
lost $790,500 in SRTC Canadian government programs in 1985/86, the Canadian
Consul in Pretoria almost got my wife and kids killed in 1990 and I lost a
whopping $32,000,000 in 2001, which I am required by law to keep quite about
to protect the guilty in government and government related organizations.
So, you'd be a cynic too! But enough of that, on to Canada the good, pah!
In examining the protocols and procedures for immigration to Canada, I see
they have played some interesting (read nasty) games. The countries on the
"automatic refuge list" are;
DR Congo -- Sudan -- El Salvador -- Guatemala -- Colombia -- Sierra Leone
Note that the Canadian government deams only certain countries eligible for
automatic refuge immigration and that Columbia is on par approximately with
South Africa for crime. It may take some time before Canada places South
Africa on the "endangered species list" and they may only include the
allegedly indigenous peoples.
The Main Canada Immigration Page is at
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/index.asp where you can find all the individual
links to the different methods of applying to immigrate to Canada. The best
solution I can see would be South Africans helping South Africans with
possibly help from like minded people here in Canada to form a private
sponsorship program.
A Private Sponsorship Program operates under an agreement with the Minister
in charge of Immigration and the private sponsors have to be able to float
the costs of responsibility for their sponsored families and individuals.
Unfortunately, everything costs money. There are also literally multiple
tons of lawyers and DIY groups that can help, but again, they expect you to
throw out bucks on the chance you might be able to immigrate. Trust no one,
get everything in writing, immigration brokers or politicians and their
hunchback bell-ringing lobbyists, they're all crooks and only in it for the
money.
There are no guarantees that anyone in particular would be allowed to
immigrate. There are additional requirements such as health and criminal
background checks. I find that kind of funny since we keep letting in
Tuberculosis and AIDS riddled refugees as well as murders and rapists... go
figure?
A little on Canada. Personally, I hate the weather here and loved it in
South Africa. I should have moved to Australia or New Zealand. Oh well, I
came back and have regretted my decision ever since 1990. But for some
people it might work out OK as there are people from all over the world who
have become accustomed to our climate and weather (maybe the fluoride in the
water is making them more passive).
Weather - Cold in winter and as low as -40 C, 1 to 6 feet of snow (or more)
in most areas except southern British Columbia. Spring is generally wet.
Summer is nice fluctuating between 18 and 35 C. Diffrerent areas of Canada
have different weather patterns, the warmest area is southern British
Columbia, the coldest is probably the North West Territories or Baffin
Island. There really are only two season though, Hockey and Road
Construction/Repair.
Currency - Canadian Dollar presently at just over the US dollar. The value
of the dollar is controlled indirectly through the CFR branch in Canada
(IMF) through the Bank of Canada, which is a bit of an oxymoron since it
isn't owned by Canada but rather IMF members. >From what I can tell, it
looks like Canada will be bankrupt in the next 2 to 5 years even though the
dollar looks good right now.
Government - Lame-ass, ball-less corporate sponsored oligarchy in a feudal
monarchistic relationship with England. The Prime Minister controls the
government, but, the Governor General (the Queen's representative in Canada)
can over rule or dissolve the government in accordance with the 1947 Letters
Patent of King George of England. Canada is still under the War Measures Act
and even though we have a constitution and privacy rights, they can be
dissolved in a heartbeat with a signature from the Prime Minister or the
Governor General.
Number of Honest Politicians - 1 (I think, at least we haven't caught them
yet, maybe they're just clever)
Taxation - Ridiculous, we are one of the highest taxed groups in the world.
You got your income tax which runs around 27% to 55%, then you got you 6%
GST on everything (services and retail) then you got your 8% PST on
everything retail, you have you 60% tax on gasoline.
Utilities Costs - Electricity average family $80 to $120 per month, Water
$30 to $50 per month, Natural Gas $90 to $130 per month
Housing Rental - Based on 3 bedroom house or apartment, $850 to $2000 per
month in the city, $550 to $1,200 in the country.
Contents Insurance - Usually around $40 to $80 per month
Groceries - Family of 3 around $100 per week, $400 per month
Buying a car - $17,000 to $30,000 on average, $3,000 down plus $450 per
month or thereabouts, fluctuates with price.
Car Insurance - About $800 to $1,200 per year if driver has an excellent
rating
Electronics Costs - Inexpensive, a good computer is less than $1,000,
Camcorders around $500, TV's $100 and up, DVD Players at $30 and up.
Educational System - Excellent to some extent, just watch the universities,
they are in bed with the politicians
Makeup of Country - 10 Provinces and 2 Territories.
Size of Country - Huge, look on Google Earth
Population - about 35,000,000
Population Type - ethnically diverse, about 94.6% Sheople, 5.2% Criminal
(including politicians, bankers, lawyers, accountants, etc.), 0.2% Human
with their own minds.
Dominant Ethnic Group - None since 1995, there is a pretty even mix of
everyone (it makes it easier to control through lack of co-operation as no
one can agree on anything so the governments IMF handlers make all the
decisions). I think at last count however the Asian population was 450,000
in Toronto and 325,000 in Vancouver (generally very good people).
Largest City - Toronto, Ontario
Cities with the highest rates of corruption and malfeasance - Ottawa
followed by Toronto and then Vancouver
City most likely to be destroyed by a natural disaster - Vancouver or
Victoria, British Columbia
Gun Laws - No Conceal Carry or Exposed Carry, Hunting Licenses and Sport
Shooting through approved FAC.
Hunting - In Season - Bear, Moose, Deer, etc.
Fishing - Lake/Splake Trout, Rainbow, Speckled/Brook Trout,
Largemouth/Smallmouth Bass, Pike, Pickerel, Muskinounge, etc.
Judicial System - Not worth the paper it's written on. It's a pay to get
justice system, you got no money you get no justice.
Policing Organizations - CSIS (Canadian Society of Ignorant Serfs), RCMP
(Regressive Colonial Mounted Procrastinators), in Ontario the OPP (Ontario
Provincial Procrastinators) and of course local police departments. Don't
live in Durham Region on the east side of Toronto, the police there are like
Nazi SS. If you really want to know where to live, buy a police scanner and
listen to the police radio traffic before you buy or rent!!!
Investment Diversity - Don't even bother, the banks suck, the BDC sucks, the
government sucks. They are all extremely conservative and refuse to take any
form of risk, except with your money and then they run rampant.
Wages - Minimum around $8.00 per hour, Skilled workers around $20 per hour,
Engineers around $60,000 to $70,000 per year.
Health System - OK, public health, pay for prescriptions, dentists and some
surgeries such as cosmetic. Psychiatrists are not covered and after being
through 2 or 3 of the winters here, you may need one.
Health Insurance - Additional Health Insurance costs around $70 per person
per month (for dental and prescriptions).
Tap Water - Clean (uh huh) with 753 chemicals and/or heavy metals plus
Fluoride (like they use in Russian Gulags to keep the "general population"
calm).
Language - English and French Canadian (but the real French laugh at ours)
Common Phrases - eh? eh! Where's my beer, eh? Those Maple Leafs suck, eh!
She's got great hooters, eh!!! Wonder if she goes, eh??
Main Sport - Hockey and Political Fencing (off corruption charges).
Positives - The scenery and there is some level of security as long as you
keep away from the roaming and rabid gangs of feral teens. Also the cost of
living is moderate and the health system works somewhat well.

"Riaan" skryf
> Die volgende is wat 'n ou van Kanada te se het -
Hierdie ou, Riaan, is tipies van die mense wat
na 1994 uit SA na Kanada gekom het. SA was
toe nie meer goed genoeg nie. Toe kom hulle
hierheen, maar hulle kla steen en been. Een
persoon wat bietjie na so 'n klaagpot hier in
ons gebou geluister het, vra vir my waarom
hierdie mense na Kanada kom, as niks goed
genoeg is nie.
Die mense wat uit SA na Kanada gekom
het om apartheid te ontvlug, is 'n heel ander
storie. Hulle is al lank in die land, het waarde-
volle bydraes tot die land gedoen, en is oor
die algemeen mense met soliede akademiese
of professionele agtergronde. Hierdie klaagpotte
wat na 1994 hierheen gekom het, is gewoonlik
minder goed geskoold, maar omdat hulle langs
die apartheidsvleespotte gesit het, verwag hulle
dat alles vir hulle op 'n skinkbord aangebied
moet word.
