I was born and raised in Toronto and I've been wanting to leave Canada for years. Family got in the way. But otherwise, I really hate it here.

I am sure nobody asked you to come to Canada so you won't be missed.

Nobody is leaving Canada. People are coming here, get your real facts straight. Canada is still the best country in the world. Long Live the True North Strong and Free.

IMIGRATION HAS AND IS..DESTROYING CANADA...CRIME HAS FOLLOWED MIGRANTS....LIKE THE USA

I don't know u guys and I'm not even Canadian, but I am absolutely convinced that once you have left Canada for that Muslim country, there will be a time (sooner than later) that you guys will return in repentance. Then I would like to see how you're going to explain that to your audience.

You couldn't pay me to move to Canada

I want to say that the world is going downhill, not just Canada.

With millions more new immigrants, international students and refugees from the Ukraine, Syria, and the Haza Strip, housing in Canada will only get way more expensive. The cost of living will only get more expensive. It’s unsustainable.

Canada is trying to maintain itself to Remain Canadian.\nNot it's not India or China understand that.

As an American, this seems heavily biased towards Canada. There's a wide variety of states that are much much better than Canada it seems, while others are worse.

I was born and raised in Toronto. It's not what it used to be and it's never going to recover. I took my family and left Canada. The education is terrible now and hyper politicized, the medical system is terrible, affordability is terrible. Ask yourself if you're willing to invest in a life and property in a country that will take a minimum of 20 years to recover from trudeaus terrible economic policies.

The pervert capital of Canada.

You’re wrong about the economic information on Canada. Canada is actually vastly wealthy….\n But they keep building banks and other establishments for communist countries. You wouldn’t believe what they’ve done for communist Cambodia an$ the Canada bank in that country.

Canada is still one of the safest places in the world. I won't leave. This phase will blow over. Nothing is permanent. Things change for the worse before getting better. I would take Canada any day compared to the US or some countries in Europe.

I respect your decision to leave based on misalignment of values and other factors you cited. I wish newcomers would be aware of these things before they moved to Canada. Anytime Canada takes in a flood of immigrants and refugees whose value systems don't align it creates longer term issues for society and the country. Biden is doing the same thing by allowing a flood of refugees, little does he realize what the long term impacts will be.

And if you don’t believe us when we say the racism in Canada is getting out of hand, all you have to do is scroll the comments below. Canada clearly has a BIG Islamophobic and racism problem rooted in society.

I would add that living in Canada requires a brainless mindset. There are many laws to follow, taxes to pay, things to fix, $hit to deal with. Your life will be miserable if you have creativity, imagination or to think outside the box. Canada just want sheeps and brain dead individuals. Police are corrupted as like the government. To them, you're just there so they can milk you till you died.

In answer to topics raised. Real estate in Australia is expensive because the nation is highly successful and ordinary citizens are wealthy, and this includes real estate, plus with 3 billion middle class Asian's right above Australia the Asian economy dwarfs the US economy to insignificance. Job opportunities are dictated by the fields the economy needs - oil is insignificant in Australia compared to other industries. Geographic Isolation - Thank god the rest of the world is far away, as an Australian I wish it was further away. Air fares prior to pandemic were reasonable USA to Australia around $800 return - but this guy lives in Perth so to go 4-5,000km to the east coast will be expensive - on the east coast a one way ticket to another city can be had for around $50 to $80 - Again for Australians proximity to the US market is not significant we are focused on the Asian region. Natural beauty anywhere is amazing but I prefer a warm climate over a frozen one - The Canadian population is all centered around the US/Canadian border region the rest of Canada like central Australia is vastly empty. In conclusion I find many immigrants want to move from Australia to Canada is proximity to the USA but for Australians the US market or lifestyle is not attractive or important.

You can be disillusioned or you can just accept the facts. I know a guy who's family moved from Spain to Argentina when Spain had a downturn in their economy. Now he has moved BACK to Spain when Argentina's economy took a downturn. Iran was nice for women in the 70's, now not so much. Countries go up and down throughout time. BTW, The Liberals have ruined Canada. So please, if any viewer has ever voted for the Liberals, please leave Canada.

Thank you so much for this useful information. I don't understand why the housing crisis is happening in Canada and Australia as well. The population didn’t change too much compared to the pre-COVID. Where are those houses?

Singapore actually is a place of opportunity....canada is the garbage bin of the western world.

Good Riddance and don't come back! Better off poor here in Canada than with jew haters like you.

Moved to Canada in 2017 and looking to leave in 2024. I was lucky to come here with a job and I’m making a six figure income even though I’m far from being successful. However, the problem with canada at the moment is even if you have a decent job and not too bad salary, you still can’t afford a home and the rent keeps going through the roof. Canada’s obsession with immigration is lazy and irresponsible. The politicians and elites see immigrants as cash cows and instead of creating companies that generate jobs and wealth, they speculate in the housing markets which are fuelled by immigrants. Immigration is not necessarily a bad thing but you do it with a plan, definitely not as radically as Canada did under the liberal government. The massive immigration only helps the rich, the already haves and the investors. Ask middle and lower classes how they feel about their life quality in Canada, do they really benefit from the immigration? They fight hard for jobs with minimum wages, pay for ridiculous rents, wait in the long line at the emergency rooms, get into bidding wars in the housing markets …. If you are not rich, simply don’t come to Canada. It’s not worth it unless you enjoy living from paycheck to paycheck and owning nothing.

If you are young and ready to work hard for 4-5 years, Canada is good place to live. If you have a good job in India or family business then I would recommend you to stay in India. I am living in Canada for over 42 years. I was 22 when I moved. I was lucky one but I still miss India.

The main reason to leave Canada must be being this country promoting LGBT agenda...which is worse than people of prophet Lot peace be upon him...

Guess what I left Canada years ago, I became a Malaysian resident 8 years ago and I'm not leaving; by far a much better quality of life, you can have my spot.

Please leave, take other muslims. Iam not even canadian and I saw on news these muslims saying they need shariya law in canada. Shariya and democracy won't go hand in hand. Just leave and take that muslim idiology with you. Let canada live peacefully without your peaceful religion..

JT has tried to change canada to a utopian nightmare. Where the self titled king knows what is best and everyone else is wrong.

Canada in general has changed, and not for the better in the last 15 years. The cost of living has gone through the roof, and salaries are not any better. This is from the point of view of someone from Montreal, so I cannot even imagine how expensive Toronto and Vancouver must now be.

I barely made it out of Canada, thank the lord im safe in Detroit.

I HAVE LEFT CANADA ?? 2022 DECEMBER FOR GOOD AND I WILL NEVER GO BACK.

Comments section proves what you said. So much racism. I'm happy that I watched this even before making up my mind to go to Canada.

Canada brings in immigrants exploits them and then used asophiscated gangstalking program to destroy them ? Your like aslave with no rights and freedoms ?

I want to share my experience , me my husband and my 14 month old daughter landed in Canada Calgary on 28 June 2023, we stay for 2 weeks with our friends and start searching for apartment. Once we moved to our apartment we started looking for jobs, in the month of aug we both got a job I am working as deployment engineer and my husband is working as product owner, and a daycare for my daughter. We worked hard in searching jobs all day all night, and with the grace of god we got it. The life is tough every where, it is just the way you think of it. We left our well settle jobs in India before moving here, but yes with full determination. I want to encourage people here not to loose hope prepare a plan for your self and stick to it, you will eventually get it. All the best to all the new comers and those are planning ?❤

You should go to a Muslim country if you don’t like Canada

Reasons I left Canada:\n1. no jobs...\n2. you find a job... low pay...\n3. you get pay... high taxes...\n4. you need to get to yer job... no public transportation...\n5. you need to eat... high food prices.... plus the selection is bad... not many fruits/veggies...\n6. you need a place to live.... rents are high, home prices are high... \n7. the weather sucks, personal freedoms are few, no innovation, no entrepreneurialism... \nHmmmm let me list the things I like about Canada:\n1. (crickets)

I am not Muslim and Canada is becoming a totalitarian state. You are wise to leave if you can find a place that isn't mental. The woke culture is completely nuts and I don't want any part of it either. Such a massive turn off. I hope you can find a place to live where you will feel free and happy.

We don’t want to make Canada a muslim country. You have a lot of other choices..

Good news for everyone in Canada . Take as many Muslims as you can with you . Thanks for leaving.

Islamic people living Canada? I'm devastated ...

less than 1% of those who immigrate to Canada leave.\nmaybe that changes in the future, maybe not.

Canada is Canada, and it's a good democratic country. So, if you are not happy in Canada, it's a good idea , that you go somewhere else and hopefully you will be happy

I thought this was about Canada ? Oscars are in Hollywood ?

BYEEEEEEEEE Canada will be so much better without you and your lack of self awareness.

You guys can consider Dubai as one of your options. It is so safe here. Awesome education for kids with islamic and Arabic subjects along with all the other modern curriculum. We Love dubai. Never had any problem in having halal food, zero security related issues, zero racism. Well balanced work and life, moderate inflation but you never really can feel it. In short, its an ideal place to live and raise your kids here. Alhamdulillah. We also decided long time back to move to Canada or New Zealand but the brought up of our kids was the biggest reason that we never did it. We are so greatful to Allah for making the right decision of staying in Dubai.

Trudeau and his neo Marxist policies have done so much damage to Canada.

I live in Singapore …. We laugh at Canada.

I am not Muslim and I don't live in Canada so I can't completely understand your experience. I'm from a Hindu family and I relate to some of the things you guys have expressed, especially how you guys are worried about your children being raised in a certain environment and the sense of community. Especially, about the kids. America and Canada are scary at this moment. I heard that America is looking at allowing schools to help children to hide their decision regarding their gender etc., from their parents, and there is so much more being taught in schools that go against certain cultures and belief system but also it is now separating kids from their parents, creating walls. I also agree with you both that I don't hate or saying that others can't live the way they choose to live but when it is being imposed on your children then it's hard to live in that place. I wish you guys all the best, just wanted to say, I completely get you and bless your family. You have to do what is right for you and your children and you have to go where you are most comfortable and happy<3. We all are different and we all have our ways and we all deserve to be living in a place where we can be safe to continue our traditions and cultures, to help it live on, our children will carry that forward and it's important. I don't mean to hate but America seems to be morally collapsing and Canada follows America and so does England (it's where I am living). It's scary. Hard. For some of us to survive in a certain environment. It's not for everyone you know.

Good. Take your views somewhere else, you are not wanted in Canada.

Left Canada for Saudi Arabia. Best decision I ever made for my children.
