Every one (Except people in IT, Finance, Labourers and people who escaped India due to reservation, lack of clean air, pollution, corruption, unable to produce a baby) would agree that canada sucks in everything.

Someone living in a country, and then criticising it conveys nothing. According to your argument, people who are not happy at a place they are living, should pack their bags and move to a country they love. Let me tell you, you won't find a single soul in India, if one could do so.
OTOH, pointing out imperfections in a system is not so bad. Take it as constructive criticism and maybe come up with a solution.
Regarding health care system in Canada, US Congress is citing Canada's health care example, as to why government should NOT be involved in health care system of a country. How, if one gets sick, has cancer or tumor, doctors in country like Canada do not bother, delays can be as long as 6 - 8 months and nobody is bothered by the sorry state of the patient.
Please read the full story here:
Here comes the ultimate judge who decides which posts are constructive, which are not. Thanks, but no thanks.
I have written few more lines below that question. Can you see that?
And your example with India...yeah, right...in that example, it is our home country. There are parents, relatives and other tie-ups. Whereas in Canada, we are immigrants. You call your example of this constructive? If you don't like it in Canada, there are other countries to immigrate to...Australia, US, NZ, UK, Norway, Denmark, Singapore, Norway etc just to name a few. I told earlier that it is a genuine question.

Sorry Web2000.

Immigration is a huge scam to bring people here and make them loose everything (Money, Professional skills etc...) and then to live a pay cheque- Paycheque life while providing for CPP/OAS/ Healthcare for senior citizens.
Some people find a loop hole to expliot the govt.. Other's bask in the glory of living in a great (but frozen land)
Anyways coming to my main point :
It is pointless to be staying in Canada if you canot get a good job and in your field. That is what the job numers and the futures jobs numbers show. they show that it will be very very tough for a new immigrant or a recent immigrant to find a job until 2011.
Choice is in our hands.

The official U.S. unemployment rate rose from the cycle low of 3.4 percent in 2007 to 9.5 percent as of June 2009.
The current plunge in US as well as in other western countries is structural, not cyclical. Most of the jobs lost will never come back. The real estate bubble severely distorted the economic structure. Now the world economy has a lot of rebalancing to do. And this process will last much, much longer than the “green shoots” crowd deems possible.
The Bear Market Rally of 1929/30
The crash of 1929 proved to be only the prelude to further heavy losses in 1930-1932. After the initial crash from 381 to 199, a huge rally emerged. Prices rose all the way back to 294 for a 48 percent bear market rally. Hence initial losses were roughly cut in half!
Unfortunately, investors didn’t recognize this rally as a selling opportunity. Instead, they listened to the bullish advice of Wall Street pundits and the government’s declarations that the worst was over and prosperity was right around the corner.
As we all know, this optimism proved to be, well, premature. The huge rally turned out to be just a bear market rally … soon the market started to tank again.
First, stocks tumbled back to the crash-lows, where a second and shallower rally emerged. Then after this bout of hope had evaporated, the market cascaded lower for another two years. From the high during the summer of 1929, the losses mounted to a staggering 89 percent.
Now, let’s fast forward to …
The Bear Market Rally of 2009
After having lost more than 50 percent off its October 2007 high, a huge stock market rally started in March 2009. This rally amounted to 43 percent and had all the typical characteristics of a counter trend move. Especially noteworthy was the low and diminishing volume, which is typical bear market rally behavior.
There is technical support around 880 in the S&P 500. A break below this mark would ignite another sell signal and confirm the end of the rally. The next support level is around 800. If this line doesn’t hold, it’s back to the March lows. And if these lows do not stop the slide, a very important message concerning the economy will have been given: “Depression ahead.”
Employment Is Much More Predictive Of Recessions and Depressions Than the Stock Market …
Canada and other countries will also undergo the same in coming weeks/months/years as rightly said by TK. For 2 great economists - Flaherty & Harper, the recession was unexpected, they couldn't, or wouldn't admit to the downturn in world economy, that every economist in the world was seeing. These are the same klowns who said there would be no deficit or recession last year
Industrial production falling and global trade falling and fiscal deficit climbing.
Suggestion for you today is to watch the stock market for hints of the beginning of the next stage of this crisis. Watch unemployment and world trade as reliable indicators of the severity of the slump.
Keep well,
Cheers!

Sorry. I did not elobrate.
Whenever i meet a desi, i always ask him his profession, reason for coming to canada and if they are happy here. Likewise most of the Desi's who talk to me first also ask the same question. Even many well settled Punjabi's that I have spoken to hate this country.
In my conversations, I have found that atleast 2 families who came here b'cos they could not produce a baby after many years of marriage in India and they were rediculed by fellow indians/ relatives in India. Hence they came to canada so that they could be away from the pesky relatives. Even though both the couples that I knew had professional jobs in india, they preferred labour jobs here. One of those couples came here especially to divorce each other and it was a easy process here as they had no family interference.
Hope this clarifies.
Peace by TK

LOL. Seriously i have to agree with Maharaj. Topics go so off the point on this forum.
Kaha se shuru hui and kaha khatam. From recession, jobs and Canada to impotence, issue less couples and divorce.
Jai Ho.....
