A few days ago I was thinking about those things you could say are part of the “inevitable Decalogue” to take into account. Those little things you could bring to Canada already learned as you will with French and/or English languages.
There are not things you really must do, but I think they could be considered “just in case”. As these commandments that “The Beard Guy Above” gave to Moses in the desert and that according to the moment, we may respect or not.
Let me share with you a list, as all our lists a disorderly and capricious one, and feel free to add some more commands in the comments section if you feel like…
Ten Commandments you may want to take into account
- Study the language full time before arrival.
- Do not compare everything to your mother land.
- You will make enough “networking.”
- Bring enough money to keep you up to find a job (any job!).
- Learn the habits and manners of Canada.
- You will stoically bear the winter.
- Look for a full-time job with a locally made curriculum.
- In Quebec you will use your worst French and not your best English until the other part of the conversation partner decides otherwise.
- You will create a good credit history.
- You will help other immigrants as others have helped you.
Do you think the list? What you add or what would you change?
