Foreigners here are keeping wages low in Saskatoon. Why hire a Canadian and pay them fair wages with benefits, when you can hire a cheap Filipino worker and pay them the bare minimum with NO benefits? The ONLY reason these foreign workers put up with slave wages is because their jobs are tied to their permanent residency in Canada. If they quit their minimum wage jobs, they are deported back to their third world countries.
Unfortunately, wages here in Saskatoon do not reflect the true cost of living.
We are planning to come Saskatchewan with my wife and 6 year daughter. May you please one room and kitchen home for rest will cost us? And how much would be out living cost there???
Regards
What type of work is both in demand and pays enough without having to borrow/go into debt? Ideally $3000 a month starting? (As it has been suggested earning three times the price of a city's average rent before moving there.)
To those who believe that immigrants are the cause of the problems they have in Saskatoon, I guess they lack exposure. If they were exposed to other climes, they'll understand that immigrants bring nothing but progress to Saskatoon. Immigrants are not the ones committing the crimes, neither are they the ones relying heavily on the government. They pay their dues and only benefit from the same programs that everyone else have access to and immigrants are never given preference over indigenes, only when indigenes are not qualified, are immigrants given the opportunity.
But... Saskatoon’s still a pretty nice place to live.
A graduate degree won’t guarantee you anything, but it might give you an advantage depending on your field.
But... Saskatoon’s still a pretty nice place to live.
The largest groups of immigrants here do tend to keep to themselves in small but ever-growing pockets in the city. This seems to be more and more common everywhere, though. Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg... So although Saskatoon should be very multicultural, and technically it is by virtue of its population, it still kind of isn’t because no one, except an enlightened few, seem to want to mix and mingle.
But... Saskatoon’s still a pretty nice place to live.
There is a component to Saskatoon’s population that is made up of xenophobic white people. They’re the ones whose comments you read below. Since Saskatoon’s inception they’ve had a privileged place as the “dominant” culture. But they are learning that the world isn’t actually mostly white, it’s 2019 not 1819, and Saskatoon isn’t the isolated landlocked whites-only backwater they thought it was. These people are loud, but this makes them easy to spot and avoid. I’m a white person and I avoid them. They’re just bloody embarrassing. They’re also a dying breed, so there’s some hope.
But... Saskatoon’s still a pretty nice place to live.
These things having been said, most people are pretty nice here. The city has some nice places, the river is beautiful, there’s live music, theatre, outdoor stuff to do. And the fact is, Saskatoon needs progressive people. If you move here, participate. Contribute. That’s the key. The people who feel the most isolated or threatened living here don’t participate or contribute to community. It can be intimidating given the things I’ve listed above. But it’s rewarding and makes you feel like you’re part of the city.
Saskatoon’s still a pretty nice place to live.
We are a 4-person family includes two children.How much we have to pay in average for a normal life there without rent? Thank you so much.
If you think evacuating seems like a good idea, then maybe you should keep to yourself because Saskatoon is a beautiful city and deserves more respect than you give it. it has gave you a place to lay your head and has kept a roof over your head as well so if you are going to be disrespectful find somewhere else. Saskatoon is not a bad place to live and us white people don't care where we live so please, don't be racist.
White people are evacuating to Martensville and Warman and outside the city limits. Evacuation seems like a good idea.
100/month for gas
Lots of imagrints, that are willing to work longer for less in every industry. They can afford to make less because the government aids them or they cram huge extended families into the same house
Restaurants are expensive here and if You do make it out, You can't even enjoy a glass of wine with your meal because with a B.A.C OF .004 you can have your vehicle impounded for 3 days minimum
Power water gas are all higher than What's indicated. I pay $500/month for a 1150 SQFT house with basement suite.
Thank you,
Vinod
