It's a pathetic article - so generic that you could use the same article
to warn people against the pitfalls of any country. It's badly written,
full of bad grammar and even worse spelling.

Immigrants fail because of poor health? Give me a break! No mention is
made of provincial healthcare, which all immigrants receive once they get
PR status.

"loosing health my create a sense of frustration"

I presume this means "LOSING health MAY create a sense of frustration."

Wouldn't that apply wherever a person lives?
.
"The weather may affect your health."! Well, I guess if you're jobless
and homeless and sleeping on the streets in the North West Territories
there's a good chance that the weather might affect your health.

Nice try at dissuading people to come to Canada. Try harder next time.

Nobody is forcing anyone to come to Canada if they don't want to, and
once you're here nobody forces you to stay. Planes travel in both
directions.

Canada has its problems, as do most countries, but it's a great country
to live in. And yes, I'm an immigrant myself.

Tom.

Agreed that this is incorrect. Statistics shows that new
immigrants actually have better health than average Canadians.
Probably because the medical checkup requirement for most
immigrants and simply because most people willing to go through
the tiring effort to move overseas are healthy people.

Other inaccurate factor are under "7. Wrong selection of
destination" which recommend to move to big cities. Often I see
that because new immigrants move to big cities they are failing:
these big cities do have more opportunities but also much more
people fighting for those opportunities, especially other
immigrants.

It's a problem with the selection process and application processing
requirements.

There is so much of a screw-around paper-chase in most source
countries for immigrants, that the most successful candidates are the
ones closest to the Canadian High Commissions in those countries.

People who are now living in big cities tend to favour settling in
Canada in big cities - they haven't developed the survival techniques
or appreciation for living in smaller, outlying places.

So from Philippines, or Indonesia, for example, they most likely come
from Manila or Jakarta, and settle in Canada in Toronto, Vancouver,
(or maybe Montreal?).
