I used to literally cry because my dream was to be an expat outside the US, but ever since 2020 and how other Western countries handled freedom and human rights, I lost the desire to move to Canada, Europe, Australia, New Zealand or any other Western country that suppresses medical freedom.

I was literally thinking about moving to Canada yesterday

You literally got everything wrong because of your wokness

Wow ! its mind boggling ! The premier should held accountable for this mess it’s literally a scam but made by the current government legal to scam this naive people to come to Canada it’s disgusting and disturbing that means Justin Trudeau is the worst premier in this planet ? ? shameless!

We literally live in India, cover the downtown east side and where it's at.

search in YT cops have killed many of their own citizens literally for holding a fuxking knife . this kid didnt know about it and you guys too. even if its religious or not its still a knife. his parents should thank their god .if this kid didnt cooperate with cop,he would have dead by now. i agree with cop 100%

At 12:15 he showed the city of Mississauga, which is Technically Toronto I guess since it's in the Great Toronto Area (GTA) but it's an independent city with its own mayor.\nThe Street he showed might be the most used in the city as well, it's literally the one usually considered to be separating east and west of the city. \nDon't ask me how I know these Facts

I moved to Calgary last year and now since Trudeau is letting literally anyone into Canada, they're all coming to Calgary and since I came here last year rent has went up 1.75x\nI barely ever see anyone FROM Canada here.\nI want out so bad and I'm looking for my next step.

The wait time for my specialist appointment which was upgraded to urgent is 8-12 months. In my home country I can be seen in 2 days if I pay for the visit which is relatively affordable. Here, there is no alternative. \nEvery single time you have a problem it’s a nightmare. I know multiple MDs(literally) from my home country who would come here to practice medicine but the red tape is insane and exorbitantly expensive. I’m in Ottawa.

I am so thankful to Ottawa for making Canadian immigration much easier for skilled workers. Living abroad is literally a dream for so many Indians including me.

Diversity and inclusion! Unless your poor (austerity, outsourcing). Diversity and inclusion! Unless your white (excluding white people from employment, culture). Diversity and inclusion! Unless your male (university perks for woman only, hiring only woman). The progressive agenda is literally the racism and sexism they accuse everyone else of.

I can't believe that your wages are taxed at almost 30% just to pay for drug addicts drugs.. 2-4 billion dollars for homeless no wonder they are homeless there is literally an incentive to not work in this country. Biggest scam country.

Canada is an olygarchy dictatorship, literally a slave camp .the economy is setup in a way to leave canadians with no options but to slave themselves .you cant break out of the system when you have to work two jobs just to afford a one bedroom apartment.the criminal government of canada spends billions on false advertisements online to get more immigrants in and rip them off all their life savings , same for international students who are used as a cash grab for private colleges and universities. It's one of the largest open air slave camps out there and the sad part is that most canadians aren't even aware of it .

I lived in Ontario for more than half my life, and making fun of Quebec was a cornerstone of life. If you take away montreal which is a huge outlier from the rest of the province you end up with mostly xenophobic hillbillies, lower wages, dilapidated infrastructure that becomes immediately apparent the second you cross the border, highest income tax in the country offsetting their modest property taxes, and some of the most ridiculous provincial laws ever written to preserve their French culture. My previous employer literally could not sell their medical service software in Quebec because it was not practical for them to comply with localization laws even though French language was fully supported. I personally rank rural Quebec as the worst place to live in Canada because it's one of the only places in the world that prevents businesses from operating there over bullshit like font sizes on packaging or other graphics.

This guy hasn't lived in Alberta clearly... Edmonton is literally a slum now, theres more shopping carts than cars around the city, if you know what i mean.\nthanks to the legalization and decriminalization of drugs like marijuana - along other drugs that may not be legal but are decriminalized now - our crime rates are high af and the city is essentially a huge garbage can for the homeless.

Quebec isn't #1 when it literally relies on equalization payouts to even exist. Alberta pays for Quebec to survive.

I really hope the government also opens their eyes on companies marketing birthright citizenship in Canada. Apparently, some companies in China literally market the fact that Canadians receive subsidized education and healthcare to pregnant women. These women go deliver in Canada, return to China and 18 years later send their kids to receive subsidized university education, on the expense of Canadian tax payers (which their parents never were)!

Wow they did the same thing 9 years back and now they are doing now in every country. This religion is literally cancer

lol f right off, Quebec is literally the worse place to live in Canada. GO anywhere else, youll be better off. Quebec only wants 54% of your revenue plus 15% sales tax.

Extra Alberta notes:\nAlberta (more specifically it's capital) can also hit -40c \nIt it tied IN THE WORLD for controlling its rat population of 0 (it's tie is literally just Antarctica)

That's just like in the Netherlands. Tax.is very high and they don't want you to.get rich. Always have something to pay especially tax. High Tax, high rent, high gas prices, high health care. Everything literally everything cost money here!!!

I literally watched a video similar to this about Canada before watching this... The comments that suggest that you will have similar issues in Canada are worth considering seriously...\n\nI moved from SA to Ireland this year and the housing issue is the same here... And across Europe generally... \n\nI think your best move with your qualification is an oil rich country... 5 years in Saudi earning tax free US dollars to get a mortgage in Aus with your PR already obtained...\nOr buy in Cape Town SA...\n\nWe under value the industrious nature of having a young population in Africa!

He is a literate so he kept quiet. \nIf there would be real Indian parents present. She would pack her bag and run away from world due to insult.

To many undocumented Immigrants in Canada already… they are taking everyone’s jobs who actually were born here…. Our Heath care System has fallen apart… it’s impossible to find a place to live because all the undocumented immigrants rent them out…. Literally Canada has fallen apart compared to 15 years ago…. The homeless population is completely out of control… everything in this country has fallen apart…

This sucks, but maybe we should protest the, literally, millions of Indian scammers stealing from millions of people every single day.

Whhaaaaat!?!? Lost their damn minds.. immigrants are literally running out of canada rn because they can't afford to live here.. Canadians can't afford to live in their own country! There isn't enough housing either for this massive influx even if people could afford it! Stop destroying Canada ?

Canada is cool and all but bruh you can't defend yourself here what so ever without being publicly hung or some crazy ish literally home intruder in Canada is a mf guest to the Canadian government

Bastards of illegitimate birth ?? that is not the history of Canada.. you swindled your way here subsisting off of God's people off of physical israel, you will not last, you will never have happiness, you are literally corruption.\n\nYour ?? people are dying, good luck with your procreation problem.\nYour illegitimate tribe can't win, God has already decided.\n\nThere is no such thing as judeo Christian heritage and your people are done.

Every problem canada has is literally caused by government.\n\nHere's your new one.

Come to the US, spend 6 months here and you'll be running back to Canada in no time. It's literally the same problem times 10! Of course I believe anyone has their legit reasons not to like the place they live. But to compare to the US is somewhat a joke.

Thank you Fifth Estate! Ok always wondered if such topics would ever be a priority! This documentary needs to be telecast in 216 languages in India. I volunteer to help literally assist with voice over and translation in as many indian languages as I know. While returning from India, I've interacted with similar innocent and dreamy eyed kids coming for studies to institutions I have not heard of. Such a sordid exploitation!!! There are hyenas on either side of the border!

The second girl in mustard top was a literal daddy's princess.. She clearly had no idea about the money her dad had spent.

Literally

Are you describing LATAM? Because if do you think that's real problems you never meet a latin American country. For your surprise, I could tell you how people disappear daily here, drug gangs control half of many countries, there's a lot of corruption and literally you can't count that you will come back home after a day of bad payed job. Compared to that, Canada is a freaking paradise.

I went through all this when I was student , so so true , I was literally crying while watching this because I can feel the pain ???

A good 90% of Indians live in my area. I literally don’t see anything other than at Walmart. So India must not be like Dubai.

Obviously he's is religious person but bro literally you are not allowed to bring prohibited thing why to carry life threatening things in university even students are not allowed to carry lighter might can get suspended

i don’t see anything wrong with this. i understand religious stuff but if it’s basically a literal knife, you can’t be branding that in the open in a time like this.

Its depressing to know US doesn't know literally as least as shit about us and can still control our lives!...Amen to asians and anyone non american

Its so stupid of the cops that the guy is literally asking cop if he wants him to take the whole thing off! But he still handcuff him. This cop needs to be disciplined!

Fine, but I have literally never seen a Sikh carrying a kirpan like that. I had many Sikh classmates in the UK and India and never seen this. What people was he planning on protecting with the kirpan and from what?

Bro was literally open carrying a knife on campus. Like dude at least carry it concealed lmao. He wasn't even smart about it.

People in USA literally have gun for protection as well as for mass killing but this little kirpan is more dangerous to them

Wow people are literally allowed to carry guns in that country but they feel threatened by a small knife!

As an Indian I respect the religious customs but that dude was literally asking for it knowing the scene in US. It could have been avoided.

Guy literally laughing it is shameful

I was born and raised in Canada. My family immigrated in the 70s. Growing up I was proud to be Canadian but after living in other parts of the world I can tell you, Canada isn't it! \n\nFirstly our Prime Minister is a puppet he works for the Commonwealth and whatever they say goes, they profit off all of your hard work. \nThey keep you sick so you rely on the health care system. Medicate you instead of solving the problem. Doctors are exhausted, rude and over worked, emergency rooms are a disaster and if you book an appointment to see your doctor...be sure you're waiting at least a week. If you go to a walk in clinic you risk getting a doctor that seems like they paid for a fake degree.\n\nYou know when you go to a mall in one town and then hear about a mall in another town that has really cool different things??? Ya, not here! Everything is monopolized! Same stores everywhere you go. there's a mall in Toronto called Vaughn Mills mall, when I was in Calgary they have an exact replica just a different name. Small businesses are hard to keep because everything is so expensive. There needs to be more indoor things for people to do in the winter. \n\nWhoever said Canadians are polite, has never been to Alberta!!!! I've never experienced racism in my life like I did out west, not just Alberta but also Northwest Territories and Manitoba. \n\nOn top of that they want everyone to be gay and not believe in God, they push the agenda so hard in the schools, they institutionalize and confuse your kids. If you believe anything different they literally hate you. The children are hypersexualized...teenage girls looking like they're 30 year old drag queens. They bully kids so badly in school, especially boys. Parents have no time to get involved because they're busying working multiple jobs to pay for their 4000 dollar mortgage, husband and wife barely see each other. And because they're not involved the children have no respect for their elders or teachers. the teachers don't care to get involved like they used to because everything's a liability...a problem. We had a 13 year old girl call a male teacher a pedophile for pushing a little girl on the swing. He quit on the spot, because now he's worried for his career. Kids have no shame anymore. \n\nIF YOU WANT QUALITY OVER QUANTITY (WHICH YOU MIGHT NEVER GET), DON'T COME HERE! or, Come here and send all your money home but don't educate your kids here unless you have enough money to put them in private schools and there are good private schools. If the only thing you want out of your life is freedom, freedom to just be left alone and no one hounding you...you like being alone. Then, that you can have here. \n\nIf you are from a colonized country we are all slaves to the system!

america has the same tax rate fyi & the same wait time in the hospital AND its not free so … being in america where i’ve literally been turned away from getting help when i was sick at the hospital because of money when i was little… hearing you in canada complain about FREE healthcare is annoying & sounds entitled & ungrateful. if u come to america u would be crying

Your leader Justin Trudeau is literally Fidel Castro. Matter of fact, he’s the son of a dicktator Fidel Castro and that’s why they look alike. Don’t believe me? Look up the picture of both of them. Your country is crap you literally have no freedoms there because of him. Justin said that he admire communist China.\n\nIf you leave Canada to come to America, PLEASE leave your communist liberal ideology in Canada.

I can definitely relate to all of these living in Canada my whole life and working.\n\nCar accident - was recommend by the insurance to visit the emergency room. waited for over 5 hours, 1:30 in the morning I just walked out I had to work the next day.\nWork - construction designer, basically working regularly 6 to 7 days a week about 10 hours a day behind the a computer. Doing my own work & managing our other designers, and it's not slowing down.\nPay - only making like 25 dollars an hour. and I don't just design, I also help manage the construction, list the projects (welding fabrication), order the materials, as wells as doing a lot of paper work. \nBills - I'm living in the cheapest place in the entire city with my fian and sharing a car at the moment, so not to bad. But obviously if we want to buy a house or a condo I'd be looking at well over 2000 dollars a month split between our two incomes.\nGas - prices are high, carbon taxing.\nHomeless people everywhere you look, can't really blame them TBH.\nShootings and police raids right out side my apartment, literally drove through a crime scene one morning. Yet I'm not allow to own a gun for self defense.\nThree months of summer, winter storms, but I love skating and snow boarding so that's ok with me.\nWeed's legal but along with alcohol, both heavily taxed.
