Canada Immigration

When I first arrived at the airport I felt quite confused, had I taken the wrong flight and ended up at a different country?

If you have never been here, you probably have no idea of what I mean, let me explain myself. I'm from Brazil and my idea of Canada was a country full of tall, super white people, but for my surprise it is very different.

Whenever you're in Vancouver you'll see many Asian people, if you're in Surrey you'll see many East Indians. It's a big mixture, many different people in one place.

If you use the Skytrain, see picture above, (a transportation system, the same idea of a subway, but that is actually located above the roads, instead of under, reason why it is called Skytrain) you'll be surprised to hear people speaking many different languages.

There are Italians, Chinese, East Indians, Germans, the "latinos", Croatians, Yugoslavians, etc, etc, etc and you may even find some Brazilians (watch for those super discrete yellow and green soccer shirts).
