  1. One of my former co-workers was from Egypt, and he did the same thing you are considering.

    In order to give his children a safer, healthier environment to grow up in and to get a good education, he found a job and moved his family to Canada so his two daughters could attend school here.

    His only concern was a cultural one. He was a traditionalist and wanted his daughters to marry someone with traditional arabic heritage and customs. And so after the daughters graduated high school, he arranged for his family to immigrate back to the Middle East, and was living in Dubai last I heard.

    That is not to say that Canada does not have a strong muslim or arabic presence. But because Canada is more liberal and open to a variety of ethnic backgrounds, I think he did not want to take the chance that his daughters may fall in love with someone not of his "approved" selection.

    It is up to you to decide if moving to Canada will accomplish the goals you set for your family. As for how to go about starting the immigration process, I would consult the Canada Immigration website for more information. Canada is looking for skilled workers for various parts of Canada. You can also consult with the Canadian Embassy in Cairo to see what papers you might need and what opportunities would be available.


  2. Be grateful to the people and  the Govt of Canada that you have been given a chance to live  in  this beautiful open-hearted country- If you do go then remember WHY you have left your own country in the first place and therefore ABIDE with the LAWS and rules of the great Canadian land-Your sons are now 9 & 4 , teach them that it is now their country and to respect that and not start any nonsense when  they grow up-Teach them gratitude,teach them good values and let them be  part of the great Canadian culture- this does not mean they have to change their ancestral values or religion or stuff that CANADA proudly allows everyone to continue doing-

    Canada believes in multi-cultural harmony and gives every citizen the right to make something of themselves, be  it a cabinet minister or part of the government, so consider your immigration as a privilege not a RIGHT- don't let your sons ever forget that they left their own country to make their lives worth living-
