I want to give a different perspective. I'm from Singapore. My entire family was here and they have moved back. My sister moved back first because my British brother in law could not take the cold. My brother moved back because he wanted to make money and be rich. My parents moved back to be close to their grandkids. But no way will I move back. Constant heat strokes from the weather, materialistic and shallow people, preference given to married people and families, lack of hinterland and nature, lack of winter sports, and poor LGBTQ+ rights. I have not lived in Singapore since I was 18 and I am also childfree, with no intention of raising a family, only travel locally, and am not into the acquisition of commercial goods for gratification. I love going on roadtrips and skiing every winter and playing hockey year round. I like that I can marry who I love here and can acquire a home without needing to be married. I understand how people who want to make money and raise families would see the brighter side of other countries, but Canada, despite its flaws, is my brighter side.

Love from Italy❤️❤️❤️\nI would like to live in Canada ?\nOnly One informative thing: as hijabis we have to cover the neck too

bye bye gaza - leave canada alone - go to qatar - no more islam - no more palestine - no more gaza

I know MANY people who LOVE living in Canada so I won't WASTE A SINGLE SECOND watching your video and gave it a THUMBS DOWN

heath care is horriable. there are to many people and the healtcare cant take care of so many people thats also a problem if you want to bring people in also make sure your healthcare is in order the hole country is going the wrong driction usa is lot better more pay, lower taxes, more carrer opptunites affordable houseing.. Trudeu is brining people in like crazy. if you live in canada you pay for more for eveything comapred to how much americans pay there arent enough jobs for educated workers so people looking for a job become uber drivers. there is lots of money laundering down in canada through real estae lots of people that cant buy homes back home they buy a house in canada. and everything becomes crazy exspensive. during the pandemic canada just went down hill.

Counting days until my early retirement (still several years) to go back to Thailand, my home country. Quality of life in Canada used to be better when i came 25 years ago and things have gone downhill in recent years, especially after the pandemic. As a middle income class with good secured job, i feel the purchasing power has significantlyndiminishing and disposable income left to spend outside necessities is very low or none.

Only a couple years left to retirement. Seriously considering a move to the Philippines. I can hardly wait to say good-bye to Canada, the cold, and the high cost of living.

Thanks for telling the truth about living in Canada. Since Justin Trudeau became PM in 2015, Canada as experienced rising cost of living crisis, rising crime rates, healthcare system deteriorating, and many more other problems that I could list here.

Thank you for the truth. I can confirm everything what you have said! I have left Canada for Russia around 1 year ago, and I am very glad!

I left Canada 5 years ago... I'm in Dubai now... 1000% satisfied on my decision.

I am also planning to move my kids from Canada. It is not that Canada is a bad country, but Some people are making terrible. Christiams are also fleeing because of the deteriorating situation.

You are correct in everything you have said, I am Canadian and I am so totally dissatisfied with our current government and what is happening in Canada … I wish every blessing for you and your family. It’s a downward spiral for sure.

Cost of living is up everywhere not just in Canada

I left Canada for the same reasons. I am now happily living in Greece. The only thing I want to tell you is that the hijab is not a part of revelation or the Quran. Hijab means to cover the openings (pockets). The hijab is controversial because it was invented during the Abbasids and is not mentioned in the Quran.

I always wanted to move to Canada but there are mainly two things that are stopping from doing that:\n\n1 bad healthcare\n2 housing unaffordability\n\nI do work as a nurse in the UK and I would be able to find a job in Canada as well very easily but looking at the number of vacancies just in British Columbia I'm scared because it means the shortage of nurses in that Province is unbelievably high\nThe risk of burnout is really really high\n\nAbout the cost of living, it's everywhere in the world: in the UK life has become very expensive and housing is unaffordable for many people

It will be goood for canada???

Canada is so royally done no words can even begin describe it.

Sabhi YouTuber Inhi uncle k peeche q pad gaye hain, Canada me koi or nai h kya ya ye uncle easily available hain?

I went to Canada to study at Seneca college, long story short it was a ripoff.\n\nAlso the freaking winters are super harsh for students that don’t have a car. It all sounds like sunshine and rainbows when they pitch you about studying in Canada from abroad, but once you get there… holy cow, it goes south really quick.\n\nI went back to Mexico to get my degree instead, now I’m in California living the life. ?

I have been thinking of you recently and wondering about you. Very, very interesting to hear your rationale for leaving Canada. Completely understandable. Good luck. Looking forward to updates. From South Africa.

All the things you speak about came about with the Trudo government. You should have become active to get rid of him. Sorry, you should have to see Canada in this light.

Canada is going down hill with Trudeau..

liberals Canada

Keep this up ❤clean Canada

Good for Canada??

Canada will be subsumed into a Greater NAFTA. You are better off going to US or if you want cheaper Mexico.

ARE THEY TALKING ABOUT ONTARIO CANADA OR SOMEWHERE IN AMERICA, DRAG QUEEN STORY HOUR ,I THOUGHT THAT WAS ONLY IN AMERICA.

Companies actually recruit people abroad, and sponsor their immigration because Canada does not produce the most qualified workers.\n\nWhen it comes to making friends... Canada has totally changed. People are just not friendly anymore. That is spot on.\n\nNothing wrong with NK.

finally.. canada would be free from jihadis muslimin. all muslim should kick from there

In the 1960s and 70s, my parents and some of their friends left authoritarian Yugoslavia for Canada. Now, their children are leaving Canada for the same reason. I personally know at least 10 people who left Canada permanently.

Ive been living in Canada for all my life and let me tell about here. Itis of one of the most worsted places to leave.

Looks like the Trudeau family has finally bankrupted Canada. :-(

My family and I aren't Muslim but we agree with a lot of this, last year we moved our family of 4 from Canada to Mexico. Its a long and hard road but very worth it. All the best to you during this exciting new adventure

There is no perfect place anywhere in the world but overall Canada especially Vancouver is a wonderful place to live. I love living in LA and my second choice is Vancouver.

I'm not muslim and I'm leaving Canada for a whole bunch of reasons. Good luck.

Not so dramatic dear Canadians! It will be fine in time, one of the most beautiful countries on the planet. Blessed you are with such a vast landmass, nature etc etc. I am from the Netherlands and I do have a special place in my hearth for Canada. My granny did travel to you in the past and so will I do, Canada is absolute on my bucketlist! We Dutch will never forget what you did for our country during the Second World War, without you .....well, cannot keep my eyes dry. The bravery and fallen heroes are still buried on the military graveyards in Europe, especially the Netherlands. Believe me, time will heal the current problems in Canada no worry. Choose your next politicians wise, the Trudeau rain must end and I agree. Greetings from the Netherlands, I will visit you and I will support you. Do not give up, you are beautiful people, from the First Nations to the current latest immigrant. Be proud of who you are and raise the Maple Leaf Banner, The True North strong and free.

Thanks for leaving Canada. Please don't return. I wish more people like you - who aren't content with western weather, western values and who uphold Islamic beliefs - go to live in Middle Eastern countries that'll be more suitable for them. Please encourage more of your kind to follow your lead. Canada will be better off without Islamic fundamentalism. I also hope that you'll be better off without Canada too. Goodbye from Canada!

I had no idea that Canada was like this, this video was an eye opener.

My sister and her family, moved to Canada 15 years ago and are very happy there. I suppose they could come back to England and take advantage of our N.H.S. system if they fell seriously ill as they have duel nationality.

Don't come to Canada looking for jobs, there are none they all went to china

i have never been to Canada but i do have plenty of friends who are tried of living in Canada. I live in Malaysia and I do love in here and things are very easy going. The best part is the accessibility to halal food everywhere you go you can easily find Halal food and people in general are very friendly and also helpful too. I have been living in Malaysia for the past 20yrs and I enjoy in here. I was born and brought up in the UAE but I love Malaysia as my home. The cost of living in here is on the raise but it is not so bad as in many other countries so far. The Malaysian government is doing the best possible to keep a control of the inflation. We hope and pray to see 2024 as a better year to come

I wish I know more about Canadas parliament

what is the age limit to come to Canada

GDP per capita in Singapore is 82K. In Canada it's 54K. Well, the fact that salaries will be lower in Canada is not surprising. Even in US GDP per capita is less than in Singapore.

I am an immigrant, but have lived here for over 40 years.\nI went to university here, started at entry level jobs, worked hard, and worked my my way up.\nMy income is north of $200K.\nI have found new immigrants to be more highly educated coming in and they have higher expectations and are not prepared to put in the time to move ahead.\nI am happy I moved here because Canada offers a much better environment to live than most countries in the world. \nAs far as housing affordability is concerned, this is nothing new. We had the same issue in the mid 1980s.\nMy advice is to be patient and if you have the skills, it will all fall in place eventually.

Many people from Eastern European countries used to immigrate to Canada. Not any longer because now they wouldn't be better off in Canada than in their home countries. Canada is no longer an attractive destination for most people. It is incredible how the country got ruined in just 20 years. That's a feat few governments managed to accomplish.

It seems like a lot of muslim families are leaving Canada. insha'Allah you find the perfect place for you and your family x

That's the same way with first nations in Canada...that's their land!!

I used to work for CP Air in Sydney, Australia, in the 1970s and even as a white man I was subjected to raw, rampant racism from CP's Management class posted overseas from HQ in YVR. Promotions, and pay rises, were all granted to white Anglo-Saxons most of whom were grossly under-qualified. I went to YVR in the late 1990s, ironically to chair an IATA meeting of over 900 international attendees, and I fell to my knees in gratitude that I had not chosen to make my home in Canada. YVR was little better than a slum - albeit a VERY EXPENSIVE slum!!

First of all, we should be careful with the use of the word “hijrat”. There are countries(I happen to be born and brought up in one of them) where muslims actually have a history of persecution, often resulting in riots, deaths. If you compare with Prophet Mohd. saws’s hijrat, it was a result of prosecution, suffering and life risk. Relatively speaking, sometimes our first world problems may look big, but they’re not really, compared to the state of Muslim lives in other countries. \nI have lived in Dubai(2 yrs), US(8 yrs) and Canada(1+ yr) and I want to say that Canada is a beautiful, diverse country for people from all faiths and backgrounds, so much better than what I have experienced living in the above mentioned countries and my own.\nThe grass is always greener on the other side and often we don’t understand these things until we experience them on our own. Make sure that you guys do extensive research in every aspect of your future lives and not just those top reasons mentioned in your video - for each of the probable countries on your list. May Allah guide you to the right path.
