The number of potential negatives in becoming a permanent resident (high cost of living, tax headaches, uncertain employment prospects, among others) are currently outweighing the potential positives (health care availability).
If I may ask, what has convinced you to apply?

I applied bc my wife is Canadian and she wanted to move back home. For me the pros definitely outweigh the cons. Hell even the health care would outweigh the cons. I pay 330 bucks a month for health insurance here. It covers 80% of my doctor visits after I pay 1,000 bucks a year. I pay another 200+ a month for prescriptions. I think the plan we are looking at for prescriptions there was 100 bucks a month and pays 90%. It makes my meds 19 bucks a month... That means I'll save 6500 bucks a year or more just on Healthcare costs.
