Khali wali Canada.

glad to have my us citizenship as a young person in canada ?

You don't really have to sugar coat it. Canada WAS a great place to live but it's just not anymore. That's why you're leaving. And let's be clear that this is fault of Liberals in power. They now try to paint Conservatives as the radicals, but it's them who radically changed this country in just 9 years. And they're not finished. Conservatives subscribes to the norm that made this country great in the first place, they're not interested in radical departure from what Canada used to be. That's current Liberals. And NDP. Don't be fooled by media, they get lots of funding from the government.

surrey should be named india or turbanabad. first i was not able to diffrentiate bw indian and pakistanis but now pakistanis are the quiet and peaceful ones and on the other hand these punjabi indians have taken over canada like swarms

Heartbreaking really. Big time. What's happening to Canada is like watching a beautiful horse being whipped to death. So much unmet potential. And it didn't happen by accident. They may as well have nuked us than to have reduced us to this shadow of our former self. Indifference and naivete allowed it. \n\nIf you leave with regrets; then you travel with a ghost. Have decided on Canada AND the next. Mostly two for business reasons. One for the Americas and one for the other. Truest decision is where would you like to die. Yes, I wrote die. If you had the choice. That includes your home, who would be with you, etc. Peace and true happiness is there.

And there so many cheaters release ads to attract those middle classes in China to immigrate into Canada...

Any place you go will eventually face the same problems. \nJust as Canada seemed immune just a few years ago. \nBut we all just have to find a place to hunker down for 20-50 years, not find a place that will be good forever.

Since the prime minister took over he has destroyed Canada and that is a shame. I loved going to Canada when I was a kid because it was so clean. The USA is also turning into Canada. I am afraid when I retire I will have to leave the country I love and move to a cheaper country like Philippines.

Well I realised it 29yrs ago and left canada and today I am happy that I took that decision

OMG! STOP CRITICIZING CANADA WE ARE ONE OF THE BEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD. WE NEED HOUSING FOR OUR OWN NATION BEFORE LETTING ANYONE IN !

Thank anyone who voted Liberal for this horrific mess. Progressive governments are a cancer in the western world, and they have destroyed Canada. Shame on the Liberals, and shame on Liberal voters.

How many here have voted for this current government in Canada either Liberal or NDP? and know leaving because of the idiotic voters that turned this country into garbage? Covid days should have opened up everyone's eyes as to who tyrant Trudeau really was and NDP supporting him every step of his communist ways

plus all the doctors in Canada don't want to help you now they just want to get you addicted to drugs and MAID you for profit. Thanks JT you psycopath drama clown

I am Chinese from Malaysia. I lived in Toronto Canada for 2 years as a Student. I really like the people in Canada. It is very diverse and friendly as well. But I left to come to San Francisco because the Winter is just too Cold and I was Sick all the time. Here Homelessness in San Francisco and Drug use is out of control. People blame both sides of the government and even threaten Civil War if one party loses in the next election. You are still young and be able to make mistakes and still start all over again. Make sure you have a contingency plan to fall back on. May the odds of life be in your favor.

Canada is a wasteland now. Years of JT and his merry band of fools who DO NOT CARE for the citizens they are supposed to represent and serve. It is an INSANE country now. We need drastic significant change to take the country back. We are doomed without electing people at all levels of government who care about citizens and not renaming a square in TO or the many other reasons that we live in a dump, at present. We are a country of nothing.....

Nah, you're not leaving Canada. At the very least, you're not giving up your Canadian passport at least. You are leaving Canada because of the situation in Vancouver, where you don't even live?? Nah. you just want to be a non-resident and pay less tax. What if you can't travel anymore?? If homeless people situation bothers you, USA likely is not gonna be your choice...unless you're doctor or something. Then again you're not as far as we know. It's funny that some comments said Canada is becoming a socialist country and yet other suggest moving to Vietnam, a communist country (yes it's still ruled by a communist party) LOL. At the end of the day, wherever you're moving to, you move there because you can be a big fish in a small pond, and you don't need to face problems that the native residents there have to.

Alina, I highly doubt that you will find better living conditions anywhere else than in Canada........unless you can afford Switzerland or maybe Norway or New Zealand.

I left Canada at the end of last year. After years of busting my butt and trying to get ahead, i wasn't going anywhere. \nThe job that i had worked at for years decided to outsource my entire team to another country and i was left with a decision to try and atart from scratch or atart fresh elsewhere. \nSo i booked a flight to Thailand and i spent three months there. While going on a border run to get a visa extension, i went to Cambodia. It was just a short trip, but it keftnits mark on me and ive been here for almost six months now. \nI didnt like how i felt back in Canada and i didnt like what i was seeing the countey become. Instead i ended up in a country that had been through one if the worst thjngs imaginable and the people were the most lively and welcoming that I've ever met. They decide to put light into the world and that resonates with me. \nGood luck with your next chapter. Change can be great. Its also easier to adapt when you find a place you love

Canada really started to go downhill after Trudeau got in. Im too old and set to move but if i was 30 years younger i would move to Russia.

Also from Canada here.\n\nYou're right. Wife and I are also moving and will be raising our families in the Dominican Republic. \nWish you the best.

Dear Alina: I wish you nothing but happiness and success in all your endeavours. Canada is NOT what it used to be and I agree with your point of view. You certainly deserve only the nicest things that life has to offer, Alina. Take care, stay safe and keep well (Sandy). ????

It shouldn't be a first world western country as all of them are all headed in the same direction as Canada ... down the drain.

All the best ! I am Canadian, but left in 2012 and have lived in Johannesburg, Dubai, and now Hong Kong ever since. Many lessons learned, dealing Canada Revenue Agency as a non-resident tax payer isn’t fun. Getting silly administration done, like renewing passport abroad, and keeping a darn Drivers License. You could definitely start a whole other Channel on how to cope as Expat ;-)

9:06 Venezuelans don't get into the US from Canada, don't be dumb, do your research first.

The fact is that this is Canada and it has or at least had it's own culture, language and identity. I want to continue to feel like I am living in Canada and not in India, if I wanted to feel like being in India, I would move there.

If you come to Canada adapt and respect. That's why this country was so attractive

Canada can fix this with real estate investors help. The problem is supply and demand. If there are more rental units and homes to buy, renters win. Investors like me want to see renters win. People are supposed to rent save up money and then buy their own homes.

Not the point of the video, but why are apartments measured in square feet in Canada?

Since Trudeau took power the population of Canada went from 35 to 41 million or 6 million people. That is more than the population of BC or Alberta. Has Canada built another BC or Alberta in terms of housing and infrastructure in the last 9 years? Quick answer is no. No one hates immigration, but it has to be done at a sustainable level. What he has done to this country is criminal.

Canada is good for indian labours?

CANADA WAS FOR RED INDIANS!

THE NERVE CANADA ?? THE COUNTRY OF NATIVE AMERICAN ???

Canada needs a legal settlement strategy that incentivizes immigrants to move anywhere else other than Toronto, Montreal or Vancouver.

I am from Pakistan and all my friends and relatives moved to UK, US, Australia and Canada. When I say all I mean 18 out of 20 left Pakistan and they don't want to come back to Pakistan ever because who doesn't want a better lifestyle for themselves and for their future generations but my father advised me never to leave your country because no matter what other countries will never accept you as their own citizens. Instead of leaving your country try to make it better. \n\nToday I see exactly that happening throughout the world. They want their countries back and you see their hearts filled with hatred against these immigrants. Sooner or later these immigrants will have to sell everything and come back to their countries. What a wise man my father was!

tell me about it I am an immigrant from England and bruh Indians own Canada now not just Brampton.

This is what Canada has become. No wonder people are moving out of here. Time to get the right officials in place.

Canada stood by and watched as the elites pumped and dumped Canada via home rentals and schools. Now their stuck with the surplus humanity. Many have taken to crossing the border to The US

It’s not hard to grasp, Canada makes millions off immigration. They don’t care what happens after these immigrants arrive ,they only care that they pay. So the citizens have to suffer in the end. It’s a loose loose and it comes down to greed

Canada is country of Immigrants

This is happening throughout the developed world: US, UK, Canada, Australia. Even Norway, one of the most open bordered countries is saying no more. When are people going to accept this is not a race issue?

4:03\n\nShe's lying. The condo market is absolutely collapsing right now in Toronto. There are no more bidding wars. People in Toronto are trying to sell their condos, but no one is buying.\n\nRecord immigration into Canada, yet the economy is on the verge of collapse.

note: more than 75% of Canada is empty land thats a big waste of land just saying

You are completely delusional if you think the lack of housing in Canada is not related to the ridiculous amounts of immigration

Back then people adjusted and respected the ways of Canada but kept their culture.\nNow Canada is adjusting to fit these people's needs for whatever cultural or religious reasons.

Yea... tenants take advantage way too much. Canada, hurry up and fix this glitch, that way us landlords aren’t paid not enough and that’s acceptable?

Oh Canada...you have no idea what is coming....specially if you have zero gold reserves.

Heart broken seeing Canada become worse and worse.

The students from South Asia especially Pakistan India are using the same loop whole to come to Canada the Canadian government is not doing anything about. It’s a mess already if they abandon the aircraft who will take the plane back to their country like the air hostess the world is a mess.

I came from England 30 years ago. I can’t recognize the Canada I immigrated to. I worry for the futures of my children. The future is dismal ..

A big part of the problem in Ontario at least are the huge numbers of foreign students.The government of Ontario allowed a large number of fly by night schools to open up to attract foreign students with the promise of a high quality Canada education. The schools charge the foreign students very high tuition, but give very poor service. They have no student housing, no proper campus and often don't even have classrooms or lecture halls that can handle the number of students they have enrolled. The students end up paying a fortune for a second class education, it is little more than a scam.
