Moving to Canada is not what anyone can tell you to simply bring xxx amount & wait for visa to be delivered

In Canada, there is no “total package” is xxxx.

Anyone telling you to just bring money is trying to swindle you.

There are parts of the process you must handle yourself.
In Canadian immigration there’s also no “easiest, fastest, cheapest way to Canada”

Like @officialgbegbin once said, the only easier way to Canada is to only dream about it

What we have in Canada are immigration programs, over 100 of them with different requirements & procedures
The over 100 Canadian immigration programs are also why you don’t just wake up and choose a program. No be like that

You must FIRST identify what you QUALIFY for. This is important!

When planning to move to Canada, 3 boxes to check are

-Interest
-Eligibility
-Financial ability

Federal Court of Canada Decision

Former Nigerian Police officer & member of SARS unit left Nigeria for USA in 2016, then crossed to Canada to make refugee claims.

He was found inadmissible & refused refugee status for his involvement in SARS activities. decisions.fct-cf.gc.ca/fc-cf/decision…
"Mr. Popoola is a citizen of Nigeria and a former member of the Nigerian Police Force.

He was found to be inadmissible to Canada because there are reasonable grounds to believe that he engaged in crimes against humanity while serving as a police officer in Nigeria."
"He now seeks judicial review of his determination of inadmissibility.

I am dismissing his application because the decision-maker reasonably assessed relevant factors for deciding whether Mr. Popoola made a knowing & significant contribution to the crimes committed by the NPF."
