I have friends in the Philippines that wish to move to Canada and all this info plus what I go threw here is good info for them that canada isn't as good anymore as it once was and is very hard to live in and is said from all around canada that more are locating from here to some where else.

Well probably Indigenous peoples in Canada felt the same 300 years ago ? a bunch of white ppl just landed and invaded their land and killed them lol

Being an Indian living in India I can tell you one thing that mostly people who are not 'good enough' in anything pay lumsum amount of money to move to Canada. For instance, most of the students going to Canada for study, lack foundational knowledge that should've been taught to them at school. Take a GRE-like exam by randomly selecting Indians residing in this area and u will understand what I'm talking about. Unfortunately, the current Canadian govt knows this and capitalise on this problem as they have turned the education system of Canada into a money-vending machine. Furthermore, no skill development opportunities and lack of jobs intensify these problems as these individuals are never exposed in a multicultural urban setting. That is why likeminded individuals aggregate and live in silos. Lastly, for my Indian brothers and sisters, I would like to say that yall should try to assimilate with the culture rather than live in silos. That doesn't necessarily mean yall should abandon ur religion and culture, but try to participate more in various activities associated with Canadian culture. Like Im a Hindu, but I participate in Eid & Christmas as well in India.. We should be open to new experiences, especially when moving to a foreign country, one should be able to adapt.. just like one adapts to the weather, one should also embrace the culture.. Try talking to people who are 'non-Indians', have a genuine conversation, find out the history of the place and various other key milestones in the region.. mostly engage in amicable social behaviour. Holding grudge & closing doors to new interactions would not solve anything, neither for Canadians nor for immigrants.. Live and let live.. Cheers!

But the white people were immigrants too....they came to Canada from different europeqn countries marginalizing the Natives...why single out Indians now....anywhere in the world you go ....Indians are doing well and economically the place or area progresses....

rise of khalistan is the downfall of Canada. time is ticking Canadians, get yo country back..... get these people out and Trudeau out

One Day Canada will be khalistan. ???

Too many immigrants. My family has been in Canada, from England/Ireland, since the 1700s quite literally with a plow in the ground. We have built this country up and into what it is . \n…. I went to Toronto the other day and I feel like I’m in some other country. There are way too many immigrants, and from countries that don’t assimilate to this western Christian country.

Canada got woke and now they can live with it.

It's not legal for noncitizens to protest period. They want to stay indefinitely without actually assimilating at all. They don't like Canada, so they want to overwhelm it to the point of taking over and changing our culture into their's. If I moved to Japan, I would never protest Japanese culture and demand that Japan become a completely different country. I would learn the Language too!

Canada is like an India 2.0

The unwillingness of local government to invest in housing is insane, this has to be one of the biggest failures of modern democracies, funny thing you can see it happening in multiples countries including Australia, the US, Canada...etc

Certain irony in this fear of Indians taking Canada away from white people

I have worked on 4 continents and what he is describing is the difference in work culture. North American culture is LOW context which is goal driven. Africa, Latin America South America is HIGH context which is not goal driven but relationship , the journey driven.i had to change my approach in their cultures he is not willing to change his approach to work in Canada\nSo go back home to your third corruption riddled country

Canada is a socialist sh**hole. Look at who they elected for their leader.. dumb f*** named Justin Trudeau.

I heard Brampton turned into armpit of Canada

If they paid for studies AND post studies, then they have the right to the 2yrs they paid for. Otherwise, Canada needs to reimburse them all for the monies paid. That's daylight robbery and scamming. It's not rocket science, Canada needs to withhold selling student visas if they have no capacity to host, but they know that no one is buying their visas without the post graduate extras.

Canada is a racist country

This makes the image of Canada trash , and looks like a 3rd world country .

Go home.No one ask them to come there to begin with. Immigration is totally twisted. If you are on vacation in Canada and meet a business owner and he likes you and want to hire you full time for what ever job. Immigration will say no to that. Not the right education, not the right age. not the right what ever. The business owner will only be able to hire you for max 3 years. Then you will returned to your own country. Then the business owner can sit there and say. Whaaaat. Why can I not decide for my self. Why do you now want people from modern countries that are better than Canada in many ways ? WHY ?. To want to live in Canada , you really have to love to be there, feel at home no matter if it is better for your finances or not. Now that rents has gone up to a level where only the wealthy can pay., why do they still insist on coming, There is a difference between having a high education and waste in on a coffee job/cleaning job/taxi driver job and so forth.

Hi can you please provude me you contact whatsapp or gmail ...to know about canada Jobs and visa

We are too soft, and too naeve, in Canada !

Canada is not India. If they came to study on a student visa, they should return home once they finished their studies instead of applying for PR.

Indian government must take step to control immigration from india to west European country,america india itself cointain big big University and colleges so why are they going to other country according to me for residents visa and citizenship they are studying in canada and European and American country born in india now they gone to other country super? if india become rich country they will return to india itself that is going to happen in future.

Tbh i'm surprised they want to stay,,,lots are leaving Canada as they can make more money in India.

We all have Pierre Elliot Trudeau to thank 3:34 for his immigration policies on letting in just about every low life from shit hole countries\nWell ya many who came have contributed to the country but a much higher percentage were and have not\nI was born in Canada grew up in low income housing & steadily more and more low quality people were let into this country\nSlack laws and nothin but big money hand outs etc\nThen came the young girls having babies etc who were babies themselves\nCanada is now a third world country \nWhat a sad sad situation we’re in let alone the rest of the world \n1984 is here in 2024

Change overnight??? Like how Canada is being changed into India basically overnight???

If their intentions were to migrate here it should have been done at first coming to Canada. They came on a Student Permit.. now time to go home. \nPretty straight forward.

Canada for Canadians, deport Trudeau and Singh along with them.

The country has no use for them. Surplus to requirements. Go back to India and help build the service industries there. You now have the skills, or was it something else you wanted when you left for Canada?

The Liberals have encouraged these unskilled immigrants to come to Canada. Now see what happens when Harper's controlled skilled workers policies were disgarded.

If we have a housing crisis, then fewer people should help Canada. It would also help Canadians if we didn't have a bunch of foreign guests abusing our systems.

Full blown racist Canada in the comment section is appalling.

This is Canada for Canadians and these visitors need return home to India where they can protest to be special

As a migrant to Canada my wife and I were required to meet the criteria that included; having relevant qualifications and work experience, money to support ourselves and three children, fluent in English &/or French (actually asked this as proof), medically fit and no criminal record, plus around $5000 landing fee. Within two days of landing I secured a job working for an electrical contractor. \n\nIf you want to come to Canada follow the process and meet the criteria. It’s only fair to those that will qualify and in the future.

I have nothing against different cultures coming to Canada, but lately all I see Indian employees in all stores

Can we elect Kevin O'Leary? He is 100% right, Canada is run by idiots.

They deserve to be all kicked out of Canada. How many of them come in on fake Visas, just to get immigration.

Go home, Canada is full!!!!

I would gladly move to Canada, if I didn't have to pay so much to emigrate! O pid gladly pay 200,000 US just to be a resident!

Canada is expensive with terrible weather. Not worth it

Maybe get out or cities but i have always claimed that I will take the -30 degres winter from Canada where its super sunny all thentimr instead of a 5 degres eastern europe with rain all winter.

It's not only in Canada. It's in many other countries in the world and many others are waiting for the same fate. The system is failing down.

Hey thanks for making such an informative blog. My son is draging me back to Canada next year. He wants to move there, but doesn't know where to settle. Now if we fly into Vancouver with our dog, what are the prospects of renting an apartment in Langley or area.? What are the prospects for finding an job in tech repair? And if he finds a job making 30 CAN an hour, will that be enough to live on? We are Canadian citizens and living in New Zealand for the last 20 years

It's not the brain drain. We never had the brains to drain. Post-secondary education in California cost 1/3 what it does in British Columbia. The State of California has the same population as Canada, yet its GDP is 3x greater than the Dominion of Canada. My Grandson in Florida won a full College scholarship at 11 years of age, and they are rapidly catching up to California. Go figure!

Immigration is not the problem. Canada needs immigration to grow it's economy in the long term. Canada simply needs to build.more houses.

Just because they are brown skinned. Canada so rasist

Canada becoming a stinky place now.

Canada's problems are, indeed, diverse and there is one, easy cure; *Socialism*\n Capitalism never did well for the majority of working people and has been failing miserably since the 1980s. We need real change more than ever as Capitalism is now literally killing us and most of the life on our earth.

Canada Sucks! Plain and simple

India 1.5 Mil ? Ya right !! Maybe international students alone I believe it . Canada is done ?
