In Canada volunteerism is very common. If you struggle to find a job and the only obstacle is the Canadian experience try to volunteer for some time in your filed of expertise. You have a chance to be offered a job at the same place you are volunteering, if not it will give you experience.
Don't you think volunteerism is very common because the Canadian economy is not in good shape? And the "canadian experience” and the "networking" all those things differentiate the new immigrants from the canadian born people who already have connections from friends and university?
I think you have a point here, but good or bad the economy, it’s still a fact that as a new immigrant, if you can’t find a job for let’s say 6 months, you may consider volunteering as an opportunity.
