canada is improving. with so many government jobs available now.

We would like to have you as a neighbor here in Mexico Alina, I'm not going to lie to you, we have some states in which, like even in Canada, insecurity is present, but considering how professional and analytical you are, I think you could choose some strategic place here in Mexico so you can continue with your profession. No matter where you choose, I wish you the best for your plans.

Liberals Justin Trudeau ruined and destroyed Canada with the support of NDP Jag meet , Canada is a mess right now. Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is the only hope for Canada right now.

I always thought Trudeau is the Sunnyboy and so modern and makes Canada so more liveable. Or ist there a gap between the stories you've been told by the media and reality?

Well. Its interesting you say that but Trudeau has made it clear he wants the South Asians here more. Leaving Canada makes Trudeau glee with happiness rather than fight for this country cowards like you leave?

Why won't anyone say it? IMMIGRATION has destroyed Canada. No housing? Bring in millions more! No Health care? Bring in Millions more! High crime? Bring in Millions more! Shitting on the beach? Bring in Millions more!

This is why I would never be a landlord in Canada! Disgusting!

Being in Canada rn it’s really bad from coast to coast everything is way more expensive living standards are down I am not moving but I do think things need to change

Thank you Kemi. You are blessed. Please can a single mother apply for this express entry to Canada? Just me and my daughter.

I am leaving soon too.....Canada is not the same Canada it once used to be......

Canada has really gone downhill and is getting very creepy, viz. lack of freedom of speech, tyrannical government, mass immigration, etc. Look at the bright side though, at least they still let you leave, unlike say in the old Soviet Union. I had a married couple from Toronto who were clients of my remodeling company in Minnesota. They had immigrated to the states in search of better economic opportunity. Good luck to you.

Canadians are leaving Canada, Americans are leaving the US, Australians are leaving Australia, Swedes are leaving Sweden, Brits are leaving Britain, all delusional that life will be better somewhere else. Too bad there's nowhere to escape.

Hungary is a great place to be. The United Staes and especially Canada is far too liberal. Serbia and Poland are good options as well. Leave the West

have a fun adventure ... I lived working in China area for almost 30 years ... moved back to Canada .... it has a lot of problems now and is too cold ... move to Europe, Singapore, Hong Kong or Vietnam/Malaysia etc

You made the best decision to leave Canada because everything is going up and up from groceries to renting market to buying a place you can call home.

European living Canada because of Indian immigrants and Chinese! They don’t like Canada anymore

Unless you are extremely rich, it is getting nearly impossible to live a 'good' life here in Canada. The cost of everything keeps going up and up yet the wages don't, and the jobs are beginning to disappear too. I just don't see any future here for myself and I'm making plans to leave also in 3 to 4 years from now.

Canada is fast becoming the next Poonjab! What the hell have you done to Canada?!

HOME. Whenever I traveled? You know it's a lot of work to GO? Lots of preparations. But coming home? Never any regrets. No, 'Oh, wish I could stay'. Maybe other places? But went to several nice places. Coming home!!\nComing into YVR, home soil. Born here. Will most likely die here.\nYes, I grew up not knowing or having fear. Blessed. I believe in the Lord, that He, not some criminals own Canada, as it looks. What a great country!!\nAnd somehow I'm not thinking Pierre Polievre has the answers. Not sure\nhow it will do, and I expect tough times, but I'll see what the Lord does.\nHope the best to you. 7:15

Canada is textbook example of how socialism destroys a country.

The middle class has never had it good. A very small group of people do really well in life (due to TONS of different factors) and the rest not so much. It's been like that from the dawn of humanity. I grew up in the 90s in Canada, and everyone in these types of videos is acting like middle class people back in the day were living this baller, lavish lifestyle travelling the world and driving luxury cars. Ha! They were clipping coupons, and ordering whatever the special was whenever they went out to family restaurants. They drove Dodge Caravans, and lived paycheck-to-paycheck. I was one of them, as were my friends growing up. I was lucky enough to find something that helped me get out of all that. Sad reality of the world is and has always been, the rich can enjoy life and the rest take what's given to them. I'm not saying that's good, but it is what it is.

East or West, home is best, innit?\n\nThere is no place like home.\n\nНа Украiну повернусь... Через роки, через вiки...\n\nSo, you described a bunch of issues Canada has encountered, and you gonna be back to the place you were born?

It's almost irreparable the damage done by Trudeau to Canada and its citizens, but keep fighting to get rid of this vermin for the sake of your children's future.

3:44 How many American company CEOs are Indian?\n\nMore than 1 in 10 CEOs of Fortune 500 companies are now Indian immigrants who studied in the US,” the US ambassador added. Notably, IIT-Kharagpur alumnus Sundar Pichai is has been leading Google's parent company Alphabet since 2019.Apr 28, 2024\n\nAs an Indo American...Canada is a social welfare country with no high paying jobs..i.have heard health care is a joke!!! I think India is 5th largest economy and to be 3rd largest by 2026. Canada is down. Soon US will kick them out of G7\nHeard they ask for their lousy Canadian experience to migrant workers. Old school colonial narrow mindset imo?

The ONLY way you're going to enjoy life in Canada is if you are wealthy! Anything other than that means you are a stressed slave, locked inside a prison corporate system, while paying through the nose for your own slavery i.e. insanely high rent for a roof over your head, a car that gets you to your slave job, and ridiculously high food prices. If you like stress, slavery and the idea of never getting ahead than Canada is for you! It's a live to work/ slave country.

Canada was not meant to be a dictatorship and neither was the United States but if we don't turn around very soon that's exactly what we are going to be. I for one don't accept the government having complete and total control of my life or anyone else's life. Trudeau is a maniac

All this talk about leaving Canada, but will never give up that Canada passport because it comes with privilege

I can understand you so much. Though I live in Quebec and don't feel that economic pressure so much as someone living in Toronto or Vancouver, I plan to go back to Vietnam or at least in Asia. Because I don't like how Canada has become in term of geopolitical positions.\nI'm forever grateful to Canada and Quebec for welcoming my family and giving us the opportunity to grow up in a peaceful environment and having a career.

The trend is your friend. Use your head not your heart. If you still prefer to live in Canada, by all means go with your heart.

We must educate ourselves about the so-called Global Politics which unter the guise of humanity ,equality … purposely wide open, encouraging the people ,in particular, from the third world countries to migrate to not only Europe ,but Canada ,USA ,Australia … ,

I would do it for now. Im a born canadian of indian immigrant parents. Ive always followed the rules of canada my homeland, but have always felt the undertones of subtle racism. Opportunities were not that availible, even prior to mass immigration in the past 5 years, however, now, the anti- indian sentiment is at an all time high. \n\nIve paid my taxes. I worked here all my life. I aint leaving.

Are people forgetting who’s actually native to Canada?

The true reason is that canada as is most developed countries is an aging population with birth rate of 1.43 (below replacement). If continued your GDP will suffer because you don't have enough able bodied workers to support your aging population, just look at Japan. That's why governments are importing foreign talent from less developed countries to deal with this shortage.

Canada does not need more immigrants at this time what we need the most is something that is so difficult and we may never get. That is better governance.

What is needed to teach escape velocity is firstly, courage. Secondly, you need insurance coverage. You can be ruined just by going for a day trip from Canada to USA if you would have a car accident or a heart attack while abroad. This is very serious. Secondly, once you are old, living abroad might turn out to be impossible just because of health care coverage. The book millionaire expat ( everybody should read it) gives you an insight of where you can retire and for how much.

An alternative might be to stay and make a difference as Canada needs intelligent people like yourself to be the solution. On the other hand at 33 I understand that you can't wait for things to change as it is a turning point in your life. Wishing you all the best in your future endeavours.

It isn’t just Canada that has tanked.\nIt seems like every English speaking country has.\nAs well as western countries.\nI get the impression that the whole world has tanked.\nSo where is a good place to live?

I'm 51 years old, came to Canada when I was 36, I do love Canada but late for my age to immigrate again. If I was young I would travel to Scandinavian countries. Good Luck to you!!

Mass immigration and international students made the situation in Canada worst.

I actually took a course in university that briefly talked about gun violence, and the statistics for the number of mass shootings per year were extremely high in the US. (Mass shootings, meaning 3 or more people are killed by one person in a public setting) the numbers for US was over 400 per year and for Canada it was only 4 in a span of 20 years!

Canada is nothing not even a fraction of what it used to be should have been more careful and moved away after 2008

Don't live Canada, fight for this beautiful country. Vote Trudeau out in 2025

This is a moment in time, it's been caused by a combination of inflation and a lack of housing, which was exacerbated by a flood of immigrants and refugees. It's already starting to ease, but it's going to take a change of government to cut the immigration numbers and encourage housebuilding. Literally no one recommended raising the immigration quota to 500,000 per year and on top of that there is the Ukrainian refugee programme and student visas. Anyway, speaking as someone who used to work as an immigration consultant, the best place for a YouTuber to live is Mexico. It's easy to immigrate, you're in the same timezone as most of the English-speaking audience (that makes the most money per view) and Mexico (and Canada) have extremely comprehensive tax treaties with the US and endless MOUs and so on, which make dealing with Google and the IRS super easy. I think you can even use a US bank account with AdSense. Удачи вам.

Thanks to a leader who apparently thinks governing a country is nothing but an acting job, Canada truly sucks as a country now.

I am also born and bred in Canada, I left in 2000 to the US. Had to come back in 2004 due to a layoff. Left in 2008 back to the US again then to Asia. I stayed in Asia until late 2021 and came back again because of the kids. However these 3 years I have seen this country go downhill fast and I really find it a hellhole and is much worse than in the 1990s when I was growing up. The cost of living, job situation, immigrant overrun, woke mentality is just horrendous. I am trying to leave again because I am just disappointed in this country and also exploring how to leave permanently.

dose not matter who you Vote For peeeettt boi is all for the same things as Tird-o, he talks about CBDC, Digital IDS, 15 minute citys hes all FOR it it changes nothing.\n\nYou want change or for something to happen then Bug the One group that the government hates and fears...First nations... Bug them about it.\nThey are Slow to get Going and Dont watch the News or care much about what canada is doing but when it get going nothing stops it.\nKeystone.\nKeystone 2 over the rockys.\nAnd mordoor\nECT ECT\nIf they don't want it it ends

4th generation and we are now on our 6th generation we are considering leaving Canada too after almost 95 years here. Watching this county slowly plummet to the bottom of the pit has been very depressing. Our once amazing safe diverse cities are turning into cesspool of rampant drugs and crime. Even our small city of 100k, it's everywhere no escaping the circus this government has created. Unfortunately I really have no hope of Canada's return.

Well done on deciding to JUMP! It's not like you are renouncing your citizenship (I hope). I'm actually working in your birth country right now and my wife is from Uganda but we are trying to move her and her son (my stepson) to Canada. This is the first of your episodes that I've seen and it makes me think my wife who is of similar age to you should also document her journey to Canada. Anyway....well done, be brave...no regrets!

Sorry to hear the current situation in Canada and I am sure Canadian people will get all the issues resolved.

Alina, I truly empathize! Millions of us Canadians do. While he's not entirely responsible for Canada's decline, Trudeau's government's immigration and economic policies in the last 9 years have certainly exacerbated Canada's housing, inflation, health care and cost of living problems. I don't know if electing the Conservatives will improve things much, but they can't possibly do any worse.
