You have chosen the least appropriate place to seek work - job market is saturated and overcrowded in GTA and black men face an extra racial challenge. You will most probably need to move to a rural province with less candidates.
Your best bet would be to apply all around the country and not limit yourself to the East Coast. However it is good to land in Toronto - many bridging courses take place here.

Probably you think that your one-liners are witty - but they are not. Better not to post any reply then these useless comments. I think, the original poster has made it very clear what his skills are.
I have seen your initial posts and recall those days when you were confused. Stop belittling others.

I am not belittling him in a country where qualified Engineers are security guards, Doctors work as taxi drivers, architects work as bar tenders, whats wrong with him playing soccer. Stop underestimating the power of immigrants.

You haven't posted since 11/29, so I am not sure if you will read this, but just in case you still visit this thread:

You are in the right place. Forums are where the real individuals who live or plan to move to Canada gather.
No other place will provide you the knowledge as valuable as public forums. Try visiting more than one, do your research, read and ask questions.
There are individuals who will give you valuable and helpful advise.
Don't pay attention to those who reply bitterly, some of them may have frustrations that is not related to you at all.
Best of luck to you and your family.

Dude you yourself know the satire in your original statement. This guy mentioned his skill and he mentioned nothing about that soccer skill. where did it come from, huh!
Btw are you still stuck as taxi driver?

Have you heard of Ryan Fitzpatrick? NFL player who has a degree in Economics from Harvard
How about George Parros? NHL player with a degree in Economics from Princeton
Ross Ohlendorf: Baseball player with a degree in Financial Engineering from Princeton
Iain Dowie: Soccer player with a Masters degree in Engineering from Southampton University


These are just some examples and there are many more, my point is if people such as these actually took your advice they would not be who they are today. They took a chance either because of the love of sport or because they didnt get a job in their respective fields. Therefore you need to open your mind and talent and look for better opportunities.

As far as belittling someone, I'll follow your lead. Unfortunately I do not have a PhD nor a medical degree therefore I don't qualify as a Canadian taxi driver right off the bat. But next time I take a cab I'll be sure to ask the name of the cabbie, maybe its Dr. vivek sharma at the wheels!!
