Hey thank you so much for all your informative videos.. I watched so many videos regrading PR for canada but i guess yours are the best.. Can you please help us with the latest 2022 immigration program's

Hi Jason. I thank you so much for putting up your time and sharing so much information here. My question is, once you'll be landed as a PR, how will the process start? should I stay in Canada till all documentation complete? is there any documents will I hold to proof that I am a PR? like us here in UAE we are all holding an Emirates ID. Thanks for your time to answer all of my grey areas. Cheers - Delvi

What an impressive detailed video! Outstanding! Thank you so very much for taking your time out to prepare this. May the almighty fulfill all your dreams and ease your hurdles!

Hello Mr singh\nFirstly thank you very much for encourage to lots of person, i am one of them. I gave up all hopes but your video inspired me to do something bigger so thank you very much again.\nI have done master’s in dietitian and nutrition and working at my own clinic from 2018. I am working as self employed. \nAre you guide me that self employed is eligible for PR or not.\nDo i need to register somewhere to get PR from India. I am waiting for your reply Mr Singh.\nRegards\nRishant sharma \nAmritsar

Canada is what you make of it. You can arrive rich and end up poor and you can arrive poor and end up rich. In between that, you can have a great life that balances your needs. I’ve seen immigrants succeed simply because they see the opportunity in front of them . They worked hard in their own counties to stay just above the poverty line ,but when they apply that same effort here it pays off ten times greater. I feel that compared to a lot of immigrants, natural born Canadians come across as spoiled and a little lazy…we are. We haven’t had to struggle the same way someone from a poorer country might have. I’ve talked to people who’ve worked ten to twelve hours a day just to stay afloat. If you did that here you could make plenty of money to live and have some left over. As far as owning a house goes,yes it’s expensive . I feel that homeownership in any country is relatively expensive. Here is a tip; use that soaring home prices to your advantage. Houses are expensive but you can make a lot of money buying and selling. I recommend putting together a buyers group and share the house for a few years, then sell at a profit, buy a bigger house or two smaller houses.try to buy the worst house in the best neighbourhood and fix it up slowly . That house could double in value in five or six years in the Toronto market. This is nothing new of course ,the people from India and China seem to do this a lot here ,it drives up prices and profits. On the downside to this ,you are now part of the problem. As the housing prices are driven up the non wealthy can no longer afford to own a house . They are at the mercy of high rents with no rewards of ownership. They are caught in a cycle of hard work and (relative)poverty. This could also be you if you can’t keep up the house payments and are forced to rent.\nHow well you speak English is important but your native language is also useful here because Canada is half immigrants . As a Canadian that speaks only english (Irish descent)I have to say to all newcomers that I’m very impressed that you have learned a new language and that you may even speak more than two! Don’t be embarrassed about your abilities . I find that in my experience , Canadians do not look down on people just because they don’t know English. In fact ,I’ve known people that have lived here for decades and still know very little English. They are comfortable in their communities and they function just fine. Learn as much English as suits your needs and be proud of any gains you make.\nOutside of Toronto are other cities that you might consider when looking at southern Ontario.From my experience,most are generally the same, just not as big . There are large immigrant communities in London Ontario, Hamilton and just outside of Toronto where housing is just a little bit less expensive but the commute to work is probably longer. This is just my opinion but in the small towns there are less people of colour , (which is what people of no colour call everyone else . I wonder if I’m called a person of no colour in some other culture ? LoL ). That might make it harder for you to feel integrated ,if that’s what you want. I’m not saying that people from other cultures can’t make it in a small town , I’m just saying that it’s definitely not Toronto . Here, people of any nationality can feel like they have a place where they can belong . It seems that no matter where you are from ,there is a community already here that’s set up restaurants and stores and clothing shops and newcomer support systems. And if your from Portugal or China or India or Africa or the Middle East, there are large groups of your kin here that have established roots for generations and you probably know this already.\nToronto means meeting place and that becomes evident quickly. I was born here and it’s one of the things I love the most about my city. I’m not going to say that there isn’t systemic racism here ,the people of no colour still kind of keep the top position , but as we become a minority in a decade or so ,I hope that will shift to a broader spectrum. It’s certainly happening already. One good thing is that the police department tries to hire people of colour so that racialism may play a smaller role. We’re getting used to seeing our politicians more and more reflect their constituents.\nI have to talk about the weather. Because I’m from here I’m used to the extremes of minus thirty and plus thirty . Eventually you get used to it (somewhat). Dressing in the right clothes is important. Summer is easy , but winter is different. It’s trying to kill you. Spend the most that you can afford on winter cloths . If you can afford a quality parka you should get one. The hood can be drawn around the face and stay out of the wind.\nIf not ,think of layers with a outer layer that blocks the wind. We have things called long Johns that are basically full length thick cotton or nylon pants that go on under your pants and a pair of extra thick socks. Buy your boots to fit your thick socks. Try to get the best boots you can afford ,it’s something that you might spend a little extra for but never regret.\nAll in all we are a fairly organized and peaceful society. Most people are friendly and will give you a chance . We have a good social safety net here and you don’t have to be homeless or starving if you don’t want to. There are people and organizations set up to help ,that truly try to get people back on their feet. It’s a good investment that pays off in ways that matter for the quality of life in a big city. I’m not putting my American neighbours down when I say they do things differently. They have their ways ,we have ours. This is just something that we do because we’re trying to learn how to help those that society has discarded or can’t find their place. Sure we have one or two areas where the homeless have pitched tents and we have some resources for them if they want. Unfortunately The mayor recently forced a small camp to move from a very visible place to more scattered locations. There were social workers involved as well as protesters trying to protect them. I didn’t like that happening and I want to see even more resources dedicated to them ,but on the other hand ,we are trying to avoid something like what happens on the streets when it’s just ignored. When I see YouTube videos of the streets of Philadelphia I’m extremely saddened. I thank the lucky stars that I was born in Toronto Canada.\nFor all it’s pollution and expense and crowds ,I think it’s a great place to do almost anything your heart desires . For every ugly building there is a beautiful park ,for every honked horn there is a birds call , for every cold and dark day there is beautiful sunny one around the corner.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experiences. May Allah makes it easy for all of us.

Hi Sir, can you tell that till when your app will be completed and will be available for assistance?? Kindly let us inform all aa it seems good for newcomers, thank you

A compelling documentary, thank you. Why is it that black people continue to be so demonised and de-humanised? It is such a shame that follow Asians and even American Natives play such a role in perpetuating racism against African descent people, but I guess they have their issues of identity. Real shame nonetheless, but one thing at the time, we still have a bigger hurdle to overcome.\n \nOf course, it is still not easy to be a black woman, man or child today. Sadly our mothers are still crying for their children being killed or overly punished by the police institution, our kids are still targeted if not simply despised for being beautiful, bright, talented, lively and brilliant beings with deeper skin tonalities, and hair that speaks for us otherwise. It is still dangerous because there is so much hatred across the world against us as we are coming to understand. And hatred is unpredictable. It comes in different ugly shapes. \n\nAfrican descent people are institutionally exposed to a lack of opportunities based on race, leading to the disproportionate poverty levels in our communities, and poverty brings your far closer to crime. That should not be so difficult to calculate. We're faced with higher mortality and disease rates, covid 19 has rubbed that to our eyes, care systems medical world is in less favour and neglect black communities. On a day-to-day, I am so insulted about the security guard that follows me in the shop, it is so disrespectful and embarrassing, that makes me move suspiciously indeed, yet so low and ignorant I don't even want to have to confront the issue. \n\nI agree with the writer who writes about his experience (and shame?) of being a black man in Canada- the same is institutionally reflected in Europe and across the world let's not be naive, we're not welcome but they should know they have no choice. I believe what he really is trying to express is based on the fear of being a black man in a hostile environment, but we should certainly have nothing to be ashamed of. \n\nOn contrary, we should be very proud because we are still here, like any other citizens paying our taxes and playing positive roles in society by major. We have positive role models are everywhere, from the single mother raising her children with force and determination to the black father who teaches at a local school, from the black girl who's achieved top grades to university to the black young man who's been headhunted from the medical school. And all of us who are just trying. \n\nLook closely. While the media will continue to do its good job demonising and stereotyping us negatively, let's not forget that we are real people with real accomplishments who have always made impactful contributions to society. \n\nHere's the thing, we are admired, loved and celebrated because of the brilliance, talent, charisma, swag and wealth we bring to contemporary culture. Everyone consumes black culture, from the filler lip service to the quick fix tan, from rock and roll to hip hop and RnB music, to sports athletes to the amazing creators out there, no need to mention names. But, we also are doctors, politicians, judges nurses, waiters, carers, scientists, builders, bankers, entrepreneurs, employees or unemployed. \n\nSadly on a day-to-day, we are not viewed as equal people, with equal rights and needs, who, by large, just want the good for our children, our families, neighbours and indeed countries. STOP INSTITUTIONAL RACISM. We are real mothers, real fathers, real children who have a birthright to equal treatment, respect and human dignity, whether or not you choose to disagree.

INTERESTING, BUT I FEEL NO SYMPATHY FOR ORIENTALS. I HAVE HAD TONS OF RACIAL SLURS THROWN AT ME, AS A WOMAN BY THE RACIST, EVIL ORIENTALS INCLUDING THE RACIST FILIPINO. THEY LIKE WHITE PEOPLE BECAUSE THEY THINK THEY ARE WHTE, BUT TRUTH IS THEYDO NOT RESEMBLE WHITE, ALL ORIENTALS ARE DESCENDANTS OF AND RESEMBLE ESKIMOS NOT WHITE PEOPLE, THAT THEY WORSHIP. I STAY FAR, FAR AWAY FROM THE RACIST ORIENTAL, TO AVOID IT THROWING RACIAL SLURS AT ME, DELIBERATELY SPITTING AT ME OR PHYSICALLY TARGETING ME AS IT HAS DONE IN THE PAST, LIKE TRYING TO PUSH ME DOWN THE STAIRS. KARMA IS FINALLY COMING BACK AROUND ON ALL THE COUNTLESS RACIST ORIENTALS AROUND THE WORLD, AMEN. GOD THANK YOU FOR ANSWERING MY PRAYERS.. THE QUIET, RACIST ORIENTAL IN SHEEPS CLOTHING CAN'T FOOL OR LIE TO GOD. I WATCH THIS VIDEO AND CELEBRATE IN YOUR MISERY, BECAUSE IT IS NICE TO SEE ANOTHER RACIST ORIENTAL ON THE RECEIVING END OF RACIAL SLURS THAT IT REPEATEDLY HURLS AT ME, A BLACK WOMAN.. YES, GOD IS GOOD, FINALLY JUSTICE.

Sir, thank you very much for your video. After watching your video all concepts are clear and it's easy for everyone to apply and noo need help of any agents.

Hello Kevin. I have come accrosed your all wonderful videos. Can I have your direct mail or number. Actually, I am looking to study over there. Waiting for your reply. Thank you

Hey Jason, hope u r doing good!!\nI worked in few countries in last 5 years and one of which was Cameroon, Africa... I left Africa in May 2017 without taking PCC from any of the officials... I tried many website where I can get details, but no info as of yet... Wondering if you can help me with some sources who can help me to get this without landing in Africa again.. and Thank you so much for all your informations... It is really awesome and worth watching!!

Yo Leland. I'm sorry man. I could feel how much love you have in your voice. You were so disappointed in us and pray that people see your blessings. Thank you to all Native, Metis and Inuit for your love patience with us.

Indeed ~ this conversation needs to be bigger, longer, more. Any day. Any time. Thank you, Tracy for sharing this topic with us. As a white woman who married a West African and is now raising a young girl, I crave these conversations. You’re the best! Knowledge is power. We have become more comfortable talking about body shapes, gender, learning differences. Please, can we normalize melanin as a safe and thoughtful conversation topic? Keep sharing your awesomeness with us all!

Hello, I just watched your video. Three years after you made it. I hope you are still with us and a very belated Welcome. Many people throughout the world seem to have so many stereotypes about Americans. Whether it is good or bad there typically is some truth in a stereotype. Overall it seems like you are enjoying yourself and no matter what there is no place like home. I would think no matter what your current situation is you still miss Canada as I would miss the United States if I were to move to Canada. \nA couple things you mentioned in the video were not correct and as with anything there may be a little truth in the matter but yet still incorrect.\nThose who do not have health insurance are not charged or taxed $150 monthly. There is a provision in the affordable care act (ACA) that penalizes certain individuals who make above a certain dollar amount. The amount is either $150 or $300 for the entire year. I concur any monetary penalty against anyone for not having health insurance is outrageous. I could be wrong but I believe this aspect of the ACA was never implemented under President Obama and it was indefinitely suspended or revoked by President Trump. I also feel like I need to address your thoughts about the United States all about war. I believe the American people are like most other people and want peace and civility. The government and major defense contractors have differing opinions at times. Of course there is plenty of people who are war hawks but they are in the minority. Most of us are absolutely sick of war. We currently have been at war for almost 19 years. That's six complete world war 2's in their entirety. \nI think you were being awfully generous when you said obesity is on par with the rest of the world!! Unfortunately there is far to many fat people here and the problem is only getting worse because the media says be happy and proud you are fat. Celebrating obesity is absolutely insane and it sends the wrong message to young people. If a close one is fat of course I love them but I also tell them privately that they are a walking heart attack. It's more than OK to accept someone the way they are but as a friend or family member you doing them a disservice by not mentioning their obesity. \nI'm sorry if you feel I'm being to harsh or critical. I think it is a wonderful thing to share the world's longest border with such a great nation as Canada. I have always thought Canada was like the United States fraternal brother or sister. We are very much alike with a few beautiful differences that distinguishes from one another. It doesn't appear that you upload videos hear anymore but I hope you get the opportunity to read this. Thank you for coming to the United States and I love all my canadian brothers and sisters. Take care.

Hi haters! Thank you for showing the world that everyone is human but muslims are not! Thank you for showing the real terror and the real meaning of freedom that you don't apply. Guess what i am a muslim and i wear what i want and i do what i want and i go wherever i want and i beleive in what i want because this is my right and if you don't like that woow sorry to tell you that i don't care and this is only your problem not mine i am happy if you are not then you need to find something that makes you happy and please stay away from me i want to be safe physically and psychologically which are my rights too. So have a nice day and take care of your own business and thank you for wasting your time reading this and trying to reply and thinking to attack a muslim human (that's what people always do attack the muslims) I won't discuss my religion with anyone and i won't reply people have told bad things that hurted me soo bad so i don't get hurt anymore and i know what bad peoples will say so so keep your energy you will need it later for this day and rather then spreading hate and trying to be smart try to be a human first that will help you moore and have a good life people. loove you all ??

Thank you bro for this informational video. Really appreciate your doing all these between all the struggles. I'll be watching each and every video from now on.\nLove from Bangladesh.

Thank you for the information,Ameen. Muslim women,please get rid of your face mask,( The Nakaab ). This is men made. My Question to you is,Can you Breath or Eat Freely? No. The Quran does not say this anywhere in the Quran. These are Men Made Laws. Educate your Men,Men to lower their Own Gaze & Stop Bulling the Women With your Men Made Laws. Fear Not Human Beings, Fear Only Almighty Allah & NO HARM SHALL COME TO YOU,Ameen.Dress decently & move on in life is my Advice to one & All. One may have gained knowledge & Education but put into Prospective your WISDOM to Progress in life. Ameen. Mehrunnisa .?????????????❤️❤️❤️?

All I can say is thank you for covering up your women. No one wants to see these ugly hairy beasts with unibrows and mustaches.

Funny how so many liberals choose to lump Christianity and Judaism with Islam. Nice try. In fact there are NO Islamic leaders EVER who have spoken out against the extremes of their own.\nAnd the other two? How about Moses and Christ? Charlemagne ? Bishop Odo? Luther? Chesterton? C.S. Lewis? Adam Smith? Lincoln? Tutu? King? Uh-huh.\nOh and it was Mormons, Quakers, and the Amish who spoke out against injustice towards natives. And the old liberal axiom that religion 'causes' wars? Gee no shit huh? You mean compared to the secular record of warfare and that of pagan empires and atheist dictators? Gawd. Where would we start? Rome? Babylon? Attila? Khan? Two World Wars?\nAnd finally, thank you all on the Left for your constant search for 'harmony' and perfection. Total peace of course meaning lock-step and dissent branded as 'hurtful' or 'intolerant'. Indeed.\nAnd so an ideology that has given us Marx, Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Castro, Chavez, the National Socialist German Workers Party, and countless others. Why, I'm sure the world greatly appreciates a form of mind that worships on the alters of the self and the state.

No, god is nothing of what you say. You have to repent to him, what your doing is extremely dangerous. Your afterlife (day of judgement) depends on what you do with this life that is so short. Repent to your creator, you don't have to follow anything. Just believe that he is alone, and nothing is worthy of worship then him. Thats all its about. Praise, worship and thank him for what he has given you. People before you have disbelieved in Allah and they are being punished. Say- LAILAHA ILLALAH

There is only one god worthy of worshiping. He is the most merciful, generous, all-knowing and all-wise. If you where to ask him for forgiveness, not associate him with anything else, praise and thank him with sincerity, he will forgive you. This life is like a journey, your born, married, have a baby, die. People have been there and done that. Ask your self the true reason of your existence (is it to have a big house, car...)Worship god ALONE and seek refuge with him. He is truly unique. Peace!
