I don't think it is the plan of immigration to recruit university professors to work as labourers. I think immigration is just not in tune with the job market. They think about who might be needed in Canada but not if the job market will accept the people who will arrive.
Anyway, it is not a bad idea to look for jobs online before deciding if to apply for PR. See what the employers say. Most will want nothing to do with you if you need a work permit but you could ask them if they would consider you if you had PR already. You should especially try to come to Canada on vacation and see if you can do some interviews. If your skills are in short supply, maybe you will even find an employer who will try to get you a work permit to get you sooner and you can apply for PR later or at least you can see how it is, talk to employers, find out what the money is like, what things cost etc.
Canada is no promised land. It has pros and cons like any other country. Financially, you may be better off staying where you are but for many people it is also about the future of their children. Some people feel it's worth it if they have to start at the bottom and work their way up again, possibly in a different field, if their children have a better chance.
In any case, starting fresh in a new country can be very hard. You can not really expect to walk into the same level job you had where you come from. If that happens, you are lucky. In most cases, you have to start a peg lower and prove yourself or take a survival job while you look for better or re-train in your field or train in a new field. If it is your wish to go to Canada, you can make it work but it might not happen without some sacrifices, especially in the beginning.
Well explained by Respected Leon.
I have an example for moral If you follow the rule ,you will never disappoint in your life
The Japanese have always loved fresh fish. But the water close to Japan has
not held many fish for decades. So to feed the Japanese population, fishing
boats got bigger and went farther than ever. The farther the fishermen went,
the longer it took to bring the fish. If the return trip took more time, the
fish were not fresh. To solve this problem, fish companies installed
freezers on their boats. They would catch the fish and freeze them at sea.
Freezers allowed the boats to go farther and stay longer.
However, the Japanese could taste the difference between fresh and frozen
fish. And they did not like the taste of frozen fish. The frozen fish
brought a lower price. So, fishing companies installed fish tanks. They
would catch the fish and stuff them in the tanks, fin to fin. After a little
thrashing around, they were tired, dull, and lost their fresh-fish taste.
The fishing industry faced an impending crisis! But today, they get
fresh-tasting fish to Japan. How did they manage? To keep the fish tasting
fresh, the Japanese fishing companies still put the fish in the tanks but
with a small shark. The fish are challenged and hence are constantly on the
move.
Moral:
The challenge they face keeps them alive and fresh! Have you realized that
some of us are also living in a pond but most of the time tired and dull?
Basically in our lives, sharks are new challenges to keep us active. If you
are steadily conquering challenges, you are happy. Your challenges keep you
energized. Don't create success and revel in it in a state of inertia. You
have the resources, skills and abilities to make a difference.
Put a shark
in your tank and see how far you can really go.
