Who'd you vote for?

Last time I was in toronto, 1980, it was the most beautiful, clean city I'd ever been to. I was living in New York city at the time and it was such as difference. We went to all sorts of neighborhoods and never felt uncomforatable.

je vous comprends tellement vous avez dit tout haut ce que je pense tout bas et je m,ennuie aussi d,etre entouree de vottre culture. bonne chance a vous inchallah

I tried moving on a PR and it didn't last long. :D I don't think i could have survived during the pandemic without any work.

All of the GTHA has changed... I grew up in oakville / burlington, used to go into Toronto a lot, have lots of friends in mississauga, but just within the last I'd say 5 - 7 years nothing is the same as it was. The entire region gentrified or simply went through a rapid social, economic, and culture change. Oakville where I grew up has absolutely nothing similar to what it was when I was a living there, and pretty much my entire age group had to move somewhere else to afford to move on with our lives or stay stagnant and stuck in renting situations. \n\nIt's quite shocking and sad. I could go on about Hamilton too, but I hope you get the picture.

Pouvez vous apporter d autres comme vous dans vos valises

:))))))))))))))))))))))))))) youll and your hat be missed soooo much :D

I would very much like to know where you are thinking of moving to where you'd feel more comfortable living.

Now if only about 5 million more of you would leave that'd be great!

If I was them I’d boycott Canada and never return.

Very good idea, it's a win win situation. You'd do far better in a society that expresses your religion openly. Trying to Islamify Western civilizations isn't going to work.

Yes yes\nWill see u out off canda\nU use to live d good life thats y u talk like that.\nGo 2 live in gaza dont just say free palestine

Good for you guys. I wish you all the best. Hope you find yourself a home where you can be who you are. I guess winter is not for everybody. Being Russian - I really missed winter living in Australia. One of the reasons I've returned Home))) Other reasons that you guys named to leave Canada - I'd list the same for myself and my family for leaving Australia. Except for I'm not Muslim, I'm Orthodox Christian. But there are many Muslims around me here - Russia is a very diverse country.

Well, I'd cross out America if I were you. There are plenty of Muslim countries to choose from. I'm not sure what your work history is but Palestine could use some help.

Big cities in Canada actually aren't higher in crime. The worst crime is probably western small towns. But even really nice cities like Fredericton NB have far higher crime than Toronto does. This may be changing fast enough that we will see a change, but Toronto is almost an outlier in the world on crime rates. So Pickering is an A- on crime. Fredericton is an F. You would never guess it walking around. Though the same report says Pickering is a D- on health, while Fredericton is an A-, which is ridiculous because you can't get a doctor in Fredericton, unless there is one in the family. So maybe the stats are bogus.

As a Canadian, I’d love to counter argue with you….but I can’t. Canada is going downhill and fast…

I wish they'd all leave

We have huge Islamic environment here in Europe, and you'd be surprised how hard it is to live here

I moved to Toronto in 2021 in search of a better life but only found poverty, crime and hopelessness. Just like hundreds of thousand of immigrants, I was lured into the idea of a first world country, and spent my life savings to move there. As a highly skilled worker, I am barely able to make ends meet working a job I’d be making at least 3 times more in my home country (Brazil). I am moving to the US now as cost of living is far lower and average pay is much higher.

As a non-Muslim, I agree with you completely, If I was younger, I'd get out.

Should ask why they're refugees. That's a question I'd like answered....

I’d rather live in Singapore over Canada where the government actually cares about the future of the people and isn’t just laundering its citizens tax money in wars and international organizations.

Canada is turning into a fascist totalitarian police state under the leadership of the moron Trudeau. I'd leave too.

Could you please get some of the British Muslims to follow you …..we’d be so grateful

Toronto has such a self-righteous, entitled psychology. Do voters think the real world doesn't apply to them? The chickens always come home to roost. Stop electing woo-woo lefties and choose competent centrist administrators. But then you'd have to actually vote, which 60-70% of eligible voters don't do. Go figure.

Thank god I moved to US right after graduating and paid off my loans with a new grad signing bonus. I now out earn anyone in Canada, doctors, surgeons, director of trading at TD, lawyers as well as having an top school district new construction SFH in NY (for way cheaper than Toronto even adjusted for currency), on my way to get a GC, and over a million in net worth. My cars and houses are cheaper, my flights are cheaper, my taxes are lower, my career is better, my investments do better. In Canada I'd be comparatively F-U-C-K-E-D. my condolences to all millennials that stayed in Canada.

This is the appropriate comeback, to this lady question. Instead of running from others people across this earth to America and other countries why not go and help their home lands become better. Question: if thousands.of emigrants are running to America, how will the leardership in these countries keep a job.? Why not be better leardership so your people would want to stay in their homeland. The common masses is missing some type of scheme that's allowing this behavior. Many society don't allow this behavior.why not use the millions of dollars to established and build instead of using the Millions to destroy people homeland by invaders. This is what America did once in it's ugliest history. Keep going forward America, don't go backward, because someone tells you to. Man plans, G-d Plans, but G-d is the Best of Planners. PEACE

I am definitely with you on a lot of those reasons. Especially the craziness going on with the government. And the craziness with the woke agenda. I’m not a Muslim so having mosque calls five times a day would not be something I’d be down for. But I do appreciate that you are faithful to your God. And you wish to put your God first that is some thing that more of us should be doing for sure. With peace in mind, of course.

I'd you are gainst his Genocide then please don't move to UAE. They are complicit in the most obvious of ways

My advice look for a country or city with more conservative values. If that means they have high Christian or Buddhist populations that's not necessarily a bad thing. Probably a good thing. People of faith often have the most respect for other people of faith. Also the society may be more socially conservative. As a Christian I find the secular and left leaning governments open to people of faith, especially Christians. I think its a matter of time before other faiths start copping more heat and restrictions. I'd stay away from lots of Europe as things are heating up after the issues they've had and the rise of the left and the right at the extreme ends.

I live in the UK, but if I had the means, I’d settle in Madinah, Saudi Arabia with my future husband and future children there, INSHALLAH.

I am American, but became Muslim about 4 years ago now. My husband and I got married a year and a half ago and now we have a baby girl alhamdulillāh, but we’ve talked about leaving the US. We live in a huge Arab community, masjid in walking distance, signage is in English and Arabic, halal everywhere, masjid all over the place. I wear niqaab and I regularly see other niqaabis where we live. BUT… it’s SO EXPENSIVE TO LIVE HERE. But we don’t want to move because it’s such a perfect area for Muslims to live. Once I finish nursing school we can definitely afford it more easily, but it’s something we still may consider. I’d love to not be so different just because I wear hijab and niqaab. I’d love not having to explain not shaking hands or not wanting to deal with men, and having accessible Islamic education for our daughter.

Unfortunately I was born there and wasted 23 years of my life there...but I made up for it spending the last 24 in Japan. God works in mysterious ways. :D It's just fucked up that I own 13 homes in Japan and even if I sold ALL of them, I could probably barely afford a DUMP in Vancouver...or maybe just an old condo. But yet somehow propaganda says how expensive Japan is..and how great Canada is. Fuck that shit. The West's propaganda is just messed. Thank God I broke free from that. I can barely handle a 2 week vacation when I go back to visit family. :(

LOVE this channel! I’d LOVE to hear more about your days at Singapore Airlines! I love your perfect English and voice❤.

And he’d correct. The Western media keeps asking these Zionist agenda questions.

Yet, you'd never get them to say the same about Europeans have the singular rights to their lands and living in dignity away from those from the Arab world who mean us harm.

ahhahaahah a drag queen story at the mall or the library, that's the cherry on western civilization rn, they LGTBQ'D themselves and want to drag everyone else into it

F*d up govt who brings muslims, indians, and pakistanis. They are taking over the canadian mix and making it another india, pakistan, or middle east. Canada is not European culture anymoren like it used to be

As someone who has been in Canada my entire life (except the odd travels), I would leave Canada if I could. Unfortunately I have family circumstances that require me to be available for my family in a short timespan (so I've bought a house within one hour drive from my parents with my partner). But if my life circumstances were different (and I can convince my partner) - I'd be out of Canada within a few months, once I find a job overseas. It's quite depressing here and I don't see the light at the end of the tunnel. \nNote: I do not live in the Toronto area or the Vancouver area but still a pretty medium/large city.

USA is way better. I'd move if I could.

I’ve visited Toronto a few times from the USA. It’s an amazing city and I considered moving there because it’s so hard getting a green card in the USA as an Indian. \n\nBut the more I think about it, I’d rather go back home if I needed to. I’d earn 1/3 of what I currently make if I move there with so little growth opportunities. And the refugee and unskilled immigrants there seem to be a downside as well. Instead of moving them to the sparser regions and having them employed in industries Canada seems to let them free with no oversight. Why would I pay my taxes for this?

if BOTH legal and illegal overimmigration is as totally out of control there as it's been in the US for the last 30 years I'd damned well pass on Canada too.

When you already don't have an adequate supply of affordable housing,\n the last thing you'd want to do is add more People to create even more demand and need. Our current leader taught Gym and Theatre, obviously not Math.

I suppose she is talking about CAD thoughout this video. She's talking about $100,000 and later $75,000 or $60,000. For me CAD $60,000 = EUR €40,000\nThen imagine me here in Spain working as an IT Systems & Networks Administrator, making €29,000 a year... that'd blow your mind, wouldn't it?

If Biden was to answer such a question he'd be stuck and would just go along with the reporter's biased narrative , like when the reporter asked if Xi is a dictator

The problem is the university has an insane policy of not allowing edged weapons or knifes which is insane. It’s made even more egregious by the fact that NC is one of the least restrictive states in terms of open and concealed carry firearms laws. I’d really love to know who called the police.

I'm a Christian, and I'd leave with you - and for most of the same reasons.

Been dying to leave this place for 15 years now.. but unlike Canada, it's quite hard to actually get a work permit and stay in the countries I've attempted to live in.. meanwhile I've watched as people just flock to Canada on student visas and end up staying here. I'm not 'anti immigration' but it definitely needs to be a two way street between countries.. If I could get a work visa to a few different places, mainly Japan, I'd pack up and leave tomorrow.. Canada just isn't it for me and hasn't been for a long time..

Why do we need a wall they said.. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||. |||||||||| I have no issue if you do it the right way.. it’s no different than; How we have to pay taxes, or go to work, there is a method.
