Thanks chilo. I was actually waiting for this video from you. But your reasons are almost the same thoughts I had. "Wanting the years spent outside our country to count for something". Canada is the deal. I just finished my masters in Tokyo and will start PhD in October in Tokyo also. Will be following your steps and hope Canada still remain welcoming by the time I will be done. Congratulations and wish you best in Canada. Looking forward to tearing your PR and getting your citizenship with your beautiful husband.
Very very solid reasons for wanting to move to Canada but there again you sensibly gave Japan a well deserved vocal lap of honour. We look forward for your future videos. God Bless and take care
Great thinker as always. I’m always an advocate for learning the language of where you live, especially for a long time regardless of the country. Makes life so much easier
Very true and that's what I advocate for too but the truth is that it's harder for some people than others. It's always a case of easier said than done
At some point I didn't know when I was smiling and crying at same time when you were talking about the earthquake experience because girl I know what it feels like. Hugs and kisses, congratulations
I remember when I had a conversation with you about the earthquake situation in Japan on Instagram...Due to the fact that we discussed Japan a lot in my course(geology)...I'm glad about this new phase for you🎉🎉❤...but I will miss you Japan vlogs tho🥹
Canada is one of the best choices for a highly educated young couple such as yourselves looking to emigrate. It was clear to me from the start why you chose Canada. They are our neighbors, and I have family there.
I had this language barrier back in Turkey after 3 years I couldn’t still adapt with the language that’s really crazy this language issue and this earthquake issue I’ve also experienced it back in Turkey
Japan is a first world country with a standard of living that is the same as the United States and Canada.Its majorly language barrier and maybe environmental concern because of earthquake that would make most Nigerians leave Japan for Canada.If u are good at learning languages,there is nothing special about UK and Canada.
Perfectly said. I struggle with Japanese but my husband has N1. but I will still choose japan many many times over these places. Its a cultural and language struggle in japan for many foreigners, with that I will say that you should move to a place you think you can be ok. But Dr. Chilo shouldn`t give `some` misinformed reasons.
A very balanced take! Similar to what I always say... if you can learn the language please do but if you can't there's no shame in it too. Plus that earthquake part eh 😫
@@Chilotalks I think tech is still pretty affected by language because I’ve been looking at jobs in Japan and I noticed a lot of the jobs were still asking for a daily conversation level or n3 level. I think that’s still quite a significant requirement when you think about how there are many companies you can apply to Europe without needing to speak with local language if you’re in tech. lol But it’s definitely a lower requirement than other fields so you’ll still see quite a few foreigners working in tech and finance outside of teaching English
I myself love Japan. When I visited, I was mind blown. Like you Japan will always have a special place in my heart. ❤❤❤ . I will visit again though. And yes to become a permanent resident in Japan is hard.
@@emeksb4823 Where did I state that marrying a Japanese national guarantees permanent residency status? Even in the US, it doesn't. The US Supreme Court has a ruling on that. However, I maintain my stance that obtaining permanent residency in Japan isn't hard. That's a hill I will die on.
@@uchemoses5793 Did I ever mention the US? It was an emphasis I was expounding on. You have your own opinion and I have my own valid opinion with evidences to back it up.
As a graduate of higher learning you should have done your research, it is very clear cut points system, you have a phd, studied in Japan you will get 70 points on your permanent resident application. You do not have to be constantly changing work visas. I did my Phd and got permanency 3 years later...oh I got my residency before you even came to Japan. So do not give inaccurate information
@@kerlyttle I said this and I became the black sheep 😆. Even now, most couples prefer the HSP visa to PR in order to bring parents when they give birth.
But she clearly mentioned that there was a point system to residency in Japan and that out of every 10 persons, 5 would have a PR, but it's not exactly defined for all 5 of them. Sometimes, we should try to watch these videos objectively and without bias. Her subscribers based cuts across people from all works of life. For some people, PR only is not the goal, they want a 2nd passport, so after PR, what next? Does Japan offer dual citizenship? She clearly stated that they are foreigners with PR in Japan, but the process is not a one size fits all and doesn't eventually lead to dual citizenship. So what's the fuss all about?
Very very real! It's easier said than done and that's why when people say things like 'how won't you learn the language after that long' I just smile 😊
I wish you all the best in canada, i hope everything goes well for you an your husband. Everyone like share and subscribe it's free. ##notificationsarealwayson. Sending ❤ from Brisbane 🇦🇺
This is the things that takes me out of people`s vlogs. Japan HAS A VERY VERY CLEAR AND CHEAP PATHWAY to PR. Being a student in Japan is wayyyyy different from being in the `Japan world`. Japan uses point system, 10yrs stay, HSP visa route or Japanese spouse route to PR. Infact its the clearest I know. I stopped listening when you got to the citizen part. Geeze! Japan is not like USA, Canada etc. Being a citizen or not you are both taxed equally and receive the same `benefits or treatments` unlike other countries where you need to be a citizen to enjoy some benefits. So you just need a legal stay in Japan and you are ok. I agree with the dual citizenship part. but who cares, I will give up my African passport quick quick for a Japanese passport. The benefit of a Japanese citizenship is the passport only. Personally, I am happy to see people move on to what they believe is good for them. But please get your facts right before you inform the public wrongly. And yes Japan is not a perfect country. But I don't agree with all your points and that is ok.
Me? Argue with you? God forbid 😂. Even if you say 1 + 1 is 50 I will agree with you. Despite me mentioning everything you talked about in the video, you still want to be a keypad warrior. Continue 👏👏🙌, as a matter of fact, I have been waiting for warriors like you to reach. So welcome 🤗
@@Chilotalks Dr., someone engages on your post and you think they are in to argue with you. We are humans and it’s ok if we get something wrong. I dont seek to argue with you either but just to let you know that what you are saying is not the fact. Perhaps it’s your choice of words but intensions maybe different. This is a whole internet space. Nonetheless, I wish you the best. Now celebrities want applauds. If someone makes a constructive criticism, then they are seen as haters. What a sad reality.
@@sandras-asante8252 you really genuinely call the salty comment you dropped 'constructive criticism'? Like for real? Once again I won't argue with you, anything that makes you sleep well at night is okay by me.
@@Chilotalksabeg ignore the madman. He's one of those edgy internet weebs who think they must defend any single criticism on Japan with their last breathe. I don't know if you know or follow Chris Abroad (Abroad in Japan), he's the biggest foreign TH-camr in Japan. He came up with a term for these kind of people. He once said, they suffer from _"Last Samurai Syndrome."_ 😂😂 And this guy is one of them. Via: URBAN DICTIONARY --- 1. The Last Samurai Syndrome is a syndrome where it is best associated to a certain type of weebs that are so obnoxious about defending any criticism of the Japanese Culture whether they have been there or not. 2. Non-Japanese people who think they are only ones who can save Japan from any criticism of the country as mild as it could be. .... So abeg, just ignore the werey abeg. 😂 He's most certainly not worth your time.
@@JaycedTea Chris talks about things he experience first hand. Chilo, is talking about Japan PR that she has no experience of. That is what gave me out. There’s also a term for followers who worship their idols and can’t seem to find any wrong in them. Blind followers 😄. If you ask me to give you negative sides of japan, I will list a whole page and more but PR being an unclear path is definitely not part of them. Once again, japan is not a perfect country. People become offensive or abusive with words on the internet when they are called out for something not right. The difference between you and her is that at least she replied with decorum.
Such a paradox. While the Japanese remain in their country despite natural disasters, we are leaving ours in droves despite the abundant natural resources. This fundamental issue, so so visible even to the blind. It’s well
I feel you should know japan is a developed country. They have a really strong government that priotise the safety of their citizens. You can't compare it to Nigeria where the government hinders the progress of its citizens. I left Nigeria as a kid and I am glad I did cause I was able to achieve multiple degrees even at a very young age while my age mates are still writing jamb. Like be for real. The so called natural resources aren't enjoyed by the normal citizens but the so called government who embezzle and tarnish the name of the country making it difficult for Nigerians to even travel to other countries. We should learn to appreciate the progress of others so we would also get our own progress.
If you like get PhD ten times in Japan, there will be nothing for you, as long as you are a gaikokugin especially a black one for that matter. It's ALT you will be doing for the rest of your life! However, the elementary schools in Japan are far better than Canada, so Japan is better for raising kids. But then again, the future of your children when they grow up is seriously at stake!
Stop spreading misinformation, bros. Yes, you'll always be seen as a foreigner no matter how high you climb the ladder, but I can say that exact same thing about almost every other country in the world. 🙄 Secondly, your entire statement that being an ALT is the last bus stop is a flat out blunder and massive misinformation. Stop spreading lies, sir.

Canada is going through a housing crisis, a food crisis and an immigration crisis. They won't welcome you.
So glad I made the video 😁. I wish you all the best too in your endeavors in Japan and I pray that God perfects all that concerns you and your plans.

Hard truth about Language in Asia. Even in the tech area except some international companies.
Really? Even in tech? I thought tech wasn't affected by language o
