I was born in HK but moved to Canada in the 90s. My family often said Canada is a great country with laws, benefits, and jobs blah.
So, my mom became a "cleaning lady" earning 8$/h. She worked so long that her left arm was injured and couldn't work anymore. The canada health care doesn't support therapies. She also had to go to a dentist which cost her 800$!
So me and her went back to Hk last year to treat her arms. Everything was so cheap in HK. Granted, HK is crowded, not as good air quality, but it is fun, fast pace, and full of life.
The dental fee was so cheap in HK, and the massage for her arm to. I kept asking her, why the hell did we come to Canada ?! She kept telling me it is a great country. Well, if it is so great, then why were you a cleaning lady and we can't afford for medical care?
And why are we living in a 3 bedroom apartment instead of a house? I gotta leave this prison. I am 27, I am not gona rot here and waste my age.Why do people think Canada is good?
