The problem with self employed Chinese (mainlander) in Toronto is that most of them do not make enough money. It makes no sense for them to be in this business. Can you honestly think that someone with little understanding of the society and know little language make good money in this society? NOT! The startup and high flying business is for top level winners of this society. If you are just after TAX evasion and pocket governement sales taxes, it's just too low. REgular employee can make $150K as long as you are normal people.
