"Always say no when asked if you would work if you get a job offer when you arrive at the Canada airport," he said in a TikTok video.

You can say yes but part-time, now if you say no and they ask you how you are going to provide for yourself what do you say then?

Boss some of us use loans to fund school and are expected to work and start paying while in school so should we lie to them that we aren't gonna work?

Henry Jackson replied:

I understand bro, but that's how things are, unfortunately.

Please, what if you say "No" and they ask, you why? Please what's the right answer to say? I didn't hear that part too well.
