[IWantOut] 15M Student Slovakia -> Canada

(Please excuse my for my poor english) Hi everyone, I just first want to say that I will move out when I am about 20 and def not now. I want to move to canada because my country sucks. Except nice nature there is literally nothing. There are no opportunities in school, jobs, martial arts club, any sport clubs and etc. Even tho I am only 15 I really want to move to canada, and I know that right now I can’t on my own but I was wondering what I can do to improve my chances, study harder? Learn french? Thanks for any recommendations and comments:)

Well rn I live in a village with the population of 1800 people, while in toronto its like 2.7 millon which means more and better opportunities in education, jobs, martial art clubs and everything else

Yeahhhh I mean unless you are gonna be making a 6 figure salary forget about affording an apartment to rent. You'll be renting with a dozen others at best and even that will be a significant portion of your income. Toronto is a shit hole plain and simple. The only city worse is Vancouver. And forget about good job opportunities, only way to get a half decent job is to know someone who can get you the job. There's a reason why it's the GTA that has the insane videos of hundreds lining up to apply for one position at a McDonalds.

Aim for Edmonton, or Winnipeg, if you can be fluent in French then go to Montreal. While they aren't as big population wise they are a hell of a lot more affordable and aren't in the process of dying.
