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
