What should I do

Been working at my current org for almost 2 years now. It’s a dead end job, my growth has been stagnant for almost 6 months now. Wanted to switch but companies I interviewed at put their hiring on hold.

So decided to move to Canada since I always wanted to move there for atleast some part of my life. Got an offer letter from a college in Vancouver in PGDip in Web and mobile app dev.

But the situation in canada has been bad due to the ongoing recession. People asking my parents “why does he want to move? There are no jobs.” My friends in Canada been supporting me saying there ARE jobs and economy will bounce back in 2 years time when my course ends.

I’m having second thoughts. I can’t take a lot of time either since I am already late in the immigration process.

Your friend is right in best case scenario. Studying is good time in recession if you can afford it.

Yes, but make sure you major in a field that still exists in 2 years (by GPT 6 era)

Don't think too much about the economy, it settles within years time and well skilled people can always find opportunities. If you really want to go for PhD and can afford it, go for it. Also at the end of the day your gut knows what will work for you, regardless of any advice you receive here.
