A 29-year-old Indian woman living in Canada has sparked a heartfelt conversation on Reddit after sharing that she no longer wishes to return to India. Married and financially stable, the couple originally moved abroad with the intention of staying temporarily, but over the years, they’ve come to cherish the peace, security, and lifestyle that Canada offers.

With their Permanent Resident (PR) status nearing expiration, the woman explained that they are now debating whether to renew their PR or apply for Canadian citizenship. While they still maintain close ties with their families in India and host annual visits from their parents, they’re increasingly concerned about the future—particularly the possibility that their parents may no longer be able to travel frequently due to age or health reasons.

In her post, she opened up about the inner conflict, writing: “Reading about things happening in India is scaring us about returning, we want a peaceful life and don’t know if it would be possible back home. Are we bad people if we decide to stay in Canada?”

The Reddit community responded with overwhelming support. Many reassured her that prioritizing peace of mind and personal happiness is not selfish. One user urged her to go ahead with Canadian citizenship, calling the passport “one of the strongest in the world.” Another highlighted the stark difference in work-life balance, especially for those working in high-paying roles in Indian cities.

“Stay in Canada. Even high salaries in Tier 1 cities can’t match the work-life balance you get abroad,” one user wrote, advising her to focus on helping her parents join them in the future.

Another commenter, who works for a major tech company, pointed out how demanding Indian work schedules can be. “I work in FAANG. My colleagues in India earn well but are always adjusting to U.S. time zones. It’s exhausting for them,” they said.

Others cited systemic issues in India such as high taxes and limited infrastructure improvements. One commenter concluded, “You’re still young. Get your citizenship. Having a Canadian passport opens many doors.”

Her story reflects a broader sentiment shared by many members of the Indian diaspora who find themselves navigating complex emotions between homeland ties and the realities of life abroad.
