Getting a new phone today, after a long time of hard work and consistency
Afar guyyy, I dey find one of my jerseys
Yes, I didn't Japa in my 20s or 30s, and I will never regret doing it now! 💪😍 I may not be an expert in economics, but I want to love Canada 🇨🇦 with the same intensity I love Nigeria. It hasn’t been without its drawbacks, but after 10 months as a PR and 5 months of full-time work in those 10, something small but significant happened. The CRA combined my taxes, earnings (here + last 6months of last year before I left Naija) and sent a tax refund of $270+ to me. My spouse received $370+ after filing hers. Subsequently it will grow, after working for the next 1 full year, all things being equal. To some, that’s nothing. To me, it’s a sign of a system that actually gives back. Where I come from, the system often steals from the people; here, even the smallest amount finds its way home to you. Between that and the grocery rebates, I’ve realized something: there is no greater contentment while away from the motherland than staying grateful and realistic. It feels strange to see people move somewhere and spend all your energy criticizing it. Even if others disagree with these incentives, I see a place where leaders don't just pocket our taxes. I see a country where the currency provides the basics if you work hard and keep developing yourself. A place where "change" and coins still hold value. For what it's worth, thank you Canada. I am grateful. 🍁 #japareceipts #Gratitude #Perspective #ImmigrantLife
