The First Step: Philippines to Canada

Hello! This is my first take on a KZread video, and in this pilot episode I'm sharing some moments of our journey as we make our big move to Toronto, Canada. Here you'll see me and my 3-year old son go through the process of leaving home and facing a new reality as family.

    Hi there! Nothing remarkable naman po yung questions nila dito sa Canada. Just have your supporting documents ready (eg. Letter from IRCC, marriage and birth certificates). In our case po kasi, nauna ang wife ko, so all they asked is a copy of her Student Permit. Shouldn't take long (especially for PR), you should have no trouble at all. Good luck to you! Exciting times ahead.

    1:16 I don’t see how hard it is to explain to your kid that you had to postpone your travel because you two got sick. You’re sick. You can’t travel when you’re sick. Stay home until you’re well. No one’s fault. It happens. Take control. Simple.

    Hi! Great question. I'm actually planning on making a video about this. But to answer your question, okay-- My wife and I made sure we brought enough medicine (lalo na for our son), kasi hindi ganon kadali maghanap ng gamot. If you have time to gather all meds you may possibly need, go for it. Another one is extension cords. I know, sobrang random, but they definitely sell much cheaper diyan sa atin, and they will come in handy for your home. For food, you may bring those you'd probably miss the most, basta wag lang yung mga bawal (eg. meat and dairy products). Kung kaya naman ng baggage allowance, nothing wrong with stocking up on your Filipino favorites. Actually dami ko gusto share, but it's going to be a long thread. Hope this helps. Good luck!

    Hi, sige I'll see if I can create one that talks about that. Need to gather all the details first. But honestly, there are far more informative videos on that topic by content creators like RR Dancel (She shares deeper insights on the entire process in a fun and creative way), or if you want something more raw, you can also check Alwyn and Emma (They're very generous in sharing info and personal experiences). Hope this helps. God bless!
