Great perspectives on our city. While the weather can be harsh at times, our homes and infrastructure are generally prepared for both extremes (hot and cold). I'm grateful we don't experience overly disruptive weather events such as hurricanes, mass flooding, mudslides, earthquakes, tsunamis.. etc. Keep up the great content. Subscribed!
Totally agree with you, I will pick -50 over hurricanes, earthquakes and mudslides any day. Thank you very much.
@@MARINAESIRI There is a big difference in your statement. REALLY cold weather lasts every day for months in saskatoon. Most people will never experience a hurricane in their life-time !!
Most people do not experience hurricanes floods and earthquakes every day though idiot !!!
Saskatoon and as I have found- Saskatchewan, has a culture of helping one another. You can’t be stranded and not find someone to ask if they can help. The police are particularly friendly as well.
I remember the only time we got a ticket. The police was so polite; the ticket didn't even pain me, at least not in the moment until it was time to pay. lol
Yay!! Preparing us for Sasks. Thank you Marina for this amazingly detailed video.
I got you sis! thanks for watching!
Yes please.....I need a more in depth video. This was a pleasure to watch.
Wow, I stumbled on this video and it answered my curiosity about Saskatoon. Looking forward to hearing and knowing more about Saskatoon. Well done Marina.
Many thanks!!
This video was very informative. I’m actually thinking of applying to a Masters program at the U of Sask and your info helped me out a lot! Thank you :) you gained a subscriber today
I am glad to hear that. Thanks for subscribing
This video is amazing, thank you so much for making saskatoon a place to look forward to living in👍
Thanks for watching!
Very informative and insightful. Keep up the good work. We would love a breakdown as promised. Also torchlighting regina
Noted. Thanks for watching!
Welldone Marina for all your informative videos. Thank God you mentioned the weather. That is a major factor for a lot of people thinking of migrating to Canada.
Oh , we cannot talk about Canada and not mention the weather especially since it is not the same everywhere. Thanks for watching my videos.
Your content is absolutely insightful. I hope you can do more videos and provide more in depth analysis on the city of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.
Definitely an affordable place for real estate I agree, and it is growing!
Oh yes it is.
The only reason it is growing a bit is because of the lax immigration policies. Quantity does not mean quality !!
Thank you for always sharing your experience in detail. Awaiting to move there in couple of months. New pace, new world, start all over at 40 with knowing no one around. Worst,So much dreading the winters 🥶.. but..fingers crossed 🤞.
Best of luck!
Awesome delivery. I see u are already carving a niche for yourself even when see that platform is already crowded. I will suggest u make this particular presentation a series and deliver them topic by topic and finally get to compare with other notable and populated provinces.i will like to quickly add there province in Canada that complement the adage "One cap fits all. By and large, Provincial Nomination is favouring the influx of new immigrants. Kudos once again
Thank you very much for the input!
Thanks marina for this informative video. I needed this honestly 👌
Will be lovely to see a more explanatory video on d cost of living, renting, grocery e.t.c also would love to see a house tour if u don't mind and finally I absolutely enjoy ur videos ......
Noted. Thanks for watching!
Would love to see a video on these as well
Love your smile...even while you are talking, you are smiling 👏👏👏
😊 thank you. I am trying not to break dance. Super start struck. Thank you very much for stopping by.
Hi Marina, I love watching your content. I can't wait to finish my Nursing program. my dream country has been Canada. thanks for all the information you and others a giving.
Marina thank you for the all info that u shared with us, much appreciated.
You are so welcome!
I am jealous. NL is same as Sask only you work 6-8months of the year 💔
Thanks for the enlightenment . You just take style sell Sask in 10 minutes 👏👏👏
Before nko, egbon? Who will sell my SK if i don't? Thanks for watching!
Love your videos, a drive through video would be great!
I have done a few drive through videos now.
Hello Marina, Thank you for this video. I am planning to move to Saskatchewan from Ontario and have been watching videos to have an idea of what the Province is like. Your video is quite helpful.
I am glad to hear that 😊
Thanks for this lovely video. Please do one in schooling for elementary school children
I got accepted into the U of S. I’m from the US and so excited to live in Saskatoon this fall! Hopefully the borders will open by August.
That is exciting. You will love it here in Saskatoon, hopefully, everything back to normal by then. And you can reach out if there are any questions along the way. All the best!
same here
@@MARINAESIRI thank you for all the videos
Welcome Vanya! You'll love Saskatoon and the friendly people of Saskatchewan. People think that Saskatchewan is all wheat fields, but not too much further north of Saskatoon is all Boreal Forest. Millions of trees, and there are over 100,000 lakes & rivers in Saskatchewan.
Prince Albert National Park is gorgeous. But if you like football, come down and visit Regina, home of CANADA'S TEAM, The Saskatchewan Roughriders of the Canadian Football league. They play at Mosaic Stadium, a State of the Art facility designed by the same architectural firm that designed the Stadiums in Seattle, Minnesota and the new one in Los Angeles!
Saskatoon is located on the South Saskatchewan River, and is known as the "Paris of the Prairies" because of the numerous bridges. And it's a great place to be a University Student, young and vibrant!
Hope you love it!✌🍒✌
@@cheripetty1805 hey im thinking of moving to canada for uni and might move to saskatoon could you possibly text me privatly and fill me in on everything about saskatoon and canada?

Hello, @MarinaEsiri.
I am considering studying at Saskatchewan Fall(September) next year, 2023.
I am still thinking though.
My husband and I are scared of the weather....
We don't have money, so we are considering a place cheaper.....
I hope to meet you and your family someday in Saskatoon.
Cheers from Nigeria ♥️
Good sister & mama !
Welcome! I've been born and raised here, so I am always curious as to why people chose the places they choose (and i do wonder where i would choose if i could move out of Saskatoon and Canada).
Thank you very much. We chose to come here because at the time, we had one friend in the entire country and he lived here. It was important to have some help with the transition and settling in and I am so glad we did. I love it here - except the winter of course, lol.
Thanks Marina. Kindly do an exclusive video on saskatoon
Sure will, thanks for watching!
I have been to Regina but not Saskatoon. Hopefully I get to see Saskatoon soon
It is beautiful!! Love the blue skies.
Hi dear. Good morning. I will travel soon for my masters. My Visa has been approved 😁
Congratulations. All the best
Am happy for you brother,am hoping to be there some day,am currently in 400l chemical engineering in Nigeria, hopefully after my graduation I will work my way there... please if you don't mind can I get your email address so we can relate or you can reach out to me at oelieazar@gmail.com,will be expecting your response sir.
Congratulations!!! I tap into your testimony in Jesus Name.
Glad to hear that man . I am from India , even i got accepted into University on Saskatchewan for my Masters . Wish you good luck . Lets make It happen ( Permanent Residency)
@@thebigbull9995 HahahHahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Exactly. Permanent resident.😁. I wish you well too
Very detailed video. I got all the basic informations I needed to get. But for the weather you didnt say how hot it gets during summer. I have no problem if it gets so cold . But I hate summer so I'm interested in how hot it gets. Thanks
I may be wrong but the hottest we had last year was about 28 degrees and it gets really humid too. Thanks for watching!
Great job babe, I am so loving the city already.
Glad to hear that. Thanks
Watching this video today just made my day,am so excited and hopefully looking forward to moving to this wonderful city,well am currently a 400l engineering student.hopefully I would love to start my preparation now.....Thanks for this video once again and thanks for your unselfish spirit,and lastly I do love your positive vibe.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I am moving to Saskatoon from Regina in August...looking forward to it.
Impressions of the city(Regina)?? any "postcards from the edge"?
My interest in moving to Saskatchewan is dual: financial (highest seniors supplement of all provinces) and social (nice people, I lived and worked in St'oon in 1983 and liked the city - however rent is higher than Regina). Perhaps you will do a newcomers video for old folks. And remember, not all newcomers are foreign immigrants, many are domestic migrants. And not all of us have families. I welcome your insights as someone 'on the ground'
Are there any important, major differences between Regina and Saskatoon? Everyone seems to lean towards Saskatoon which is perceived as more vibrant and youthful at heart when compared to the more sedate, listless and stodgy Regina.
Hi marina, God bless you!! Please could you do a video on how to go about on the RNIP to moosejaw
Routes of migration is outside my primary expertise at this time. Please look on the Canada Infohub channel for this information.
Marina, you are so sweet. Pls do a video on getting a job and school and all
I have. Please look through my channel. I have talked about how to get a job and how to apply to Canadian universities. Thank you very much.
Ok dear. Thanks dear. I'll check. Marina, I hope I'm not asking for too much. Firstly, I'd like to be your friend cos you speak so politely and nicely too. Secondly, I'd like to have your phone number or email address so I can discuss my immigration goals with you and get some clarifications on what to do. I really hope you don't mind. Hope to get a response from you soon. From Feyi
I hope to be in Saskatoon in 2022 . IJN
Your happiness is so beautiful
Thank you very much
Thank you❤️❤️🫶🏼🫶🏼
Omo Ekooo! Gbayii!✊🏿
Lol, thanks for watching
Hi Marina first time listening to you. I am thinking about coming to Saskatchewan. I am glad that I found you.
Welcome to the family. My email address is in the description box if you have any questions.
Thank you I will email you 😊
very informative. thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Wonderful video. I'd be happy to live there
You and me both! Thank you very much
@@MARINAESIRI how is Christmas there MARINA?
Pls ma kindly go indepth. I am enjoying it
Very Informative,My Spouse and I Will Be Moving There Shortly from ON. I Really Hope the Food Costs Mentioned isn't to Overwhelming,Is it true that it's way faster to Deal with Landing Documents in SK than ON?
Food is way cheaper in ON. I am not sure about the landing documents processes.
Hey MARINA thanks for your helpful video ! I'm so happy that i was a part of your viewers ! I would like to ask that is it a good place for medical studying ? To be more specific studying as a physiotherapist ?
The University of Saskatchewan is a great place to study and they have a great medical school as well. You may want to look on their website to see the offerings.
@@MARINAESIRI thanks a lot Marina keep up the good work !❤❤
Do you know if Saskatoon has rent control? (When a landlord is only allowed to raise the rent a certain percentage and once per year). New Brunswick does not have it, so landlords can change the price of the rent whenever and however much they want. Thanks. Looking forward to watching more of your videos.
I will have to look into that. Not sure we have it. I will confirm when I find out
more videos please thank you
I post new videos every week. Thank you for watching
Very helpful... Kindly, assist with the house rent, and other fee breakdown video clip please.
Please look through mychannel. I have other videos that address this.
Thanks
Hey Marina!!
Hello😊
Please, I need a video on childcare, schools, church, etcetera....
Hi Marina, thank you for the good work of educating us. We intend relocating soon from the middle belt of Nigeria and Saskatchewan is our destination. Please are there good job opportunities?
We have heard about the cold and are scared. Do you have any advice for us concerning the cold?
We were thinking about issued of raising children (toddlers) but you have addressed it already.
Thank you and may God bless you richly.
The opportunities depend on your career area. With the right winter gear, you will be fine
I love you Marina.😘
I'm your Bini friend in California!❤
Otemwen. Obe vbavbu o. Urhuese kakabo. I grew up in Benin so i can understand Bini to an extent.
@@MARINAESIRI😘😘😘!
Hello, thanks for your very insightful video. I've been given admission to the U of R, I'm coming with my family from Lagos and would love to know all I can about settling in quickly like catholic schools for my son and daughter, where to live close to the university and nearby amenities
Please watch my videos on the education system and childcare, it will apply mostly to Regina as well - that is fi you will be in the Regina campus. i will make a video o Regina soon, still gathering information
Hello,
Kindly share am email I can reach you on please.
I'm also from and plan on residing in Yorkton
Please do a video on Regina and Moose-jaw
I will have to read up and ask a lot of questions for these options. But will add it to my lists of topics. Thanks for watching!
Welcome to Saskatoon!
Thank you very much😊
I'm also from the us I meant to say,
Hi Marina im excited to come on Dec im from philippines but im here in doha qatar working as a school librarian and my boyfriend is a canadina live in regina
Good luck!!
Yeah I do agree with the increase in crime rate. My car got broken into on temperance. I was livid cos in my mind things like this happens in the west side.😂😂 And the travelling distance is another thing too but we make it work. 😂😂
Oh my! i am sorry to hear that. These petty crimes are everywhere. Honestly, i am very grateful that we are not experiencing any major gun violence like we see in the news of other provinces
Please can you do an updated version of this video. Any changes to all the pts mentioned? Thanks
Great idea! Will do that soon!
Thanks for your practical videos. What are the names of 2 criminal streets you mentioned?
lol @ criminal streets. There is a certain radius around 20th and 22nd street west that is mainly unsafe
Marina , you are an awesome, cheerful and positive person..You made an excellent video, very much to the point and sincere..This video gave me a good general idea of what it is like in Saskatoon..
Your style is fresh, energetic , and informative..Continue making videos , you are great!
Cheers, greetings from Vancouver , BC..:-))
Edit: How realistic is to find an affordable (under 950.00 ) one or two bedroom here in a safe /"good" area?
Thank you so much! I am glad to hear that.
If its not child friendly you cannot catch me there.. Hahahaha....
That is my new reality my sister, lol
I have been doing research about the province, is it true that there is a lot of crime?
Let me take notes because this is important to me. Hope we can collab soon.
From Ada&Nelo
Watching your sugar daddy video and i am loving your vibe already. Subbing with both accounts. Great job!
Hi Marina and thanks for the informations. Are nurses in great demand there?
Yes, they are.
Very helpful video!!! Marina it will be very helpful if you could tell which place is better Regina or saskatoon when it comes to IT jobs?? We will be moving next year to sasketchwan!!!
It is difficult to say. The two cities are very similar and there is hardly any distinct disparity when it comes to career options. Regina has more government organizations than Saskatoon though
@@MARINAESIRI Thanks dear for your reply 🙂
this is such a great video!! you’re so open minded and I love how you find the positive in every situation ☺️
Hello Marina, I love your videos and the enthusiasm. Please, how possible is it to get into the work force in Saskatoon as a social worker? Can u take us through that please???
I will talk about the Social work pathway soon. Please look out for it
That'll be awesome.can't wait for it.
what did you do to your hair? Nice!
Lol, this is my signature hairstyle. Thanks
let's go to the concert let's go to the beach shake her head 😂
