I would take my chances in Surrey, Canada than the south east side of Chicago as far as safety goes ?

Canada has actually had some very interesting politics over the last few years. Remember how Canada's government responded to the Freedom Convoy? That shit was WILD dude.

Pro for Canada: free health care. We have people dying all the time in the states because they can't afford their medication

Everyone here does realize that Cali alone has more people in it than all of Canada?

I kinda want to leave canada to the us....and ill go in a red state....probably texas or arizona.\nI dissagree with you with the door locking.. we used to be able to do it but not anymore and its just getting worst. Trudeau makes me want to have the 2A. There are no more punishment to criminal except if you dissagree with the mainstream. I wanna leave and if there is anything, shit that ill miss will be better when ill come back

Omg yes! Andrew Shultz talked about trump moving mercy but he compared Joe Biden being boring not Bernie sanders. It was funny though. The us is so obsessed with politics it’s very toxic. I would love to visit Canada someday

1. Aba’s right. I have family in Columbus, OH. Ain’t much to do up there. Sorry if you’re from there lol\n\n2. Correct about all of the fast food here in the U.S. Can’t stand it. That’s why if I DO go out to eat, it’s at the healthy options. Chipotle, Sweetgreen, Cava, etc.\n\n3. I was in Toronto a few years ago during a layover. I want to know why most of the employees I encountered at the airport were mean/rude af ? I know this is anecdotal so I’m not going to take it seriously. It’s just what I vividly remember.\n\n4. I live in the DMV. It’s a very diverse area but there’s a lot of neighborhoods that are segregated but I’d argue that it’s more of an economic issue. It’s visibly noticeable as soon as you hop on the metro. Start on the orange line on the VA side, the crowd is bright. But if you stay on long enough, go through DC and end in MD, it gets dark. I’ve lived here most of my life and it’s always been this way unfortunately.\n\n5. I need to go back to Canada to try that tap water. Y’all made it sound so good ?

the tap water is huge - I'm out of Canada now, I definitely miss the tap water

i have a hard time eating in the US tooo... its soooo different was never able to put my finger on it. I prefer the food here in Canada

I 100% disagree about the tap water in Canada ?

I live in a very rural place in canada (almost. 3.5 hours from the nearest city. 4 hours even in winter from having to be more careful driving) and im more northern than most of the country by far. We have a nice mexican restaurant (which ive been to mexico more than once so i can confirm its mostly to par lol) and a nice vietnamese cafe and some other stuff. Town is probably about 12 000 people.

Only question. Why are you still paying rent? I know Canada has the highest home prices in the world but still....

basically, if you wanna LIVE well, canada, wanna make that mula dough cash cream? states

This is a bit of semantics, but when people say America and only refer to the United States….AMERICA truly includes the United States, Canada and South America. We in the U.S. can’t claim America all for ourselves, even though that’s what we’ve done.

I'd never live in Canada lol nothing appeals about it.

If it wasn’t for the damn cold in Canada I would have been out, but that cold is different enough to make me me look at all the positive and be like nah I’m good.

The grass really was greener on the other side when I went to Canada. The first time I came up there, it was a complete culture shock, and it’s only right over the border! Like people have always had it better in Canada though in many ways. That’s why enslaved people used to migrate there. More peace.

Yeah,when Canada has more guns per people (27/100) then France (24/100) you now the mafia shit,and is still one of the safes and with some of the nices people,yeah I would live there to

In conclusion, Canada is better

Is Canada as woke as America????

Your last point - it happens in Canada as well. Look at the Vancouver suburbs of Richmond or Surrey. I've heard mainly people from Toronto be surprised at how multicultural yet segregated Vancouver can be.

Only place this NYer would ever consider in Canada is the province Alberta. NO thanks to big cities...anywhere.

This problem has introduced an invasive species to Canada, like jellyfish in the Great Lakes. \n\nWe desperately need to cull the Eastern population.

Canada is rasicst as fuck and it cost a lot of money to live there in their big cities. It's only safe because you have no freedom. Canda is safe because America protects it like a baby ? ? ? it also has 30 million people where as we have 350 million ?. They have two national languages so the entire country is hugely divided into those two groups. You can't have a gun or freedom of speech in Canada. Justin True-hoe is the president of Can-i-die ??‍♂️ and the weather is icy cold year round just like the hearts of the country's population ?‍♂️

As someone who was born and spent decades growing up in Toronto who moved to the US years ago and spend time regularly in multiple states, I disagree vehemently with what Aba said about safety. Aba did not recognize that not only is the US like 50 different countries, with each state being somewhat unique unto themselves, but the cities are like an amalgamation of 2 or 3 different cities. What I mean by that is about the safety and security aspect, it all depends on where you live and where you hang out. Undoubtedly, US ghettos and the sketchy clubbing districts are generally worse than Canadian housing projects and such. If you live in the regular or especially good parts of the city, it's totally safe. \nBecause most US towns and cities are built around neighborhoods, security and safety is always a big selling point. As long as you avoid the ghetto and late night 'action' areas, it's generally safer than Toronto. Toronto suffers from an outbreak of car break ins, car thefts, home break ins and recently car jackings all over. Many US neighborhoods and areas have no such thing. On a side note, as a POC, I also have experienced far less racism in the US than I used to in Toronto. Without getting into a can of worms, if you live in a Democrat controlled city vs. Republican one, you are going to experience more crime, more homeless, higher unemployment, etc. You guys are referencing LA, which has become far worse, like San Francisco and New York. \nAnd the cost of living comment is ridiculous. Again maybe LA and NYC which are shadows of what they once were. Canada has far higher tax burden, way higher inflation, prices of food, energy, clothes and homes are off the charts. In Texas, Florida, Tennessee and Washington, we have ZERO income tax as well as lower tax than the HST. No way, Aba and Preach are dead wrong on these issues, because they are using LA or NYC as a reference. There's a reason the movies Escape From New York and it's sequel Escape From LA are such prophetic movies.

If you like Canada then cool. Only thing is that a lot of people in those major cities are just self rightious liberal cuckholds. That and there is a literal racist (by modern standards) in leadership.

Canada is soft as fuck. ?

To be fair LA is quite a sprawl, but LA county has 25% of the population of Canada

helo sir, I want to work in canada and wana move in canada with my spouce,from pakistan, no job yet but previousely experinced and worked as and admin and accounts

Regulation of this hallo canada? Shut down scam schools and stop kids

Canada is a socialist nightmare. Do not come here to work. You will be very surprised.

Canada actually isn't that great, the educated people, especially from India/China only come here because the US has a very cumbersome greencard process. Just look at H1B to greencard wait times for Indians, it can take more than a decade.\n\nI think Canada is great if you are a refugeee escaping war and are just happy to have shelter and benefits.

Ok. First of all, I am from Canada. The only thing there pushing for mental health is m.a.i.d. homeless people...m.a.i.d. now children who is depressed... m.a.i.d. ( medically assisted suaside) Toronto star said the government is happy on how much money they are saving. Dont want you on assistance. All I can say, dont be foolled. I can assume, payed by the liberal party of Canada. Led by justin castro

Bro I am from Afghanistan can I get Canadian visa from Pakistan because here is no embassy of Canada!

I left canada and I m happy it s an overestimated country with rude and arrogant people\nEurope is much much better

This video is very simple and helpful. Thank you for this step-by-step information. I have a doubt. I am living in Canada and applying for visiting visa for my parents. Do we have to show bank statements In our account as well as the parent's account separately? and how much will be the approximate minimum amount we have to show?

You girls are 100% correct, it’s sad that a lot of immigrants don’t know the reality of living in Canada before they move here

Immigrated to Canada from Germany several years ago and I agree with everything you said. Especially the quality of houses. As a European I'm shocked about the way houses are built. Poor quality and very cheap materials. If you willing to spend a million dollar for a cardboard box, good luck but not for me.\nComing here with over 24 years of experience as builder I'm still astonished about the lack of education in many fields not just the trades. \nBut depending on where you settle down, Canadians are very friendly and helpful:)

we moved here in 2001 because canada once was a prosperous country under the harper government. cost of living was acceptable, income taxes weren't too high, crime was low. now, canada is the complete opposite. low-middle class families being sucked dry of their finances due to carbon tax, high cost of living, and government funding ideology with tax payer money. income taxes set to go up again in 2023, extremely high crime rate, bringing in copious amounts of immigrants without reinforcing infrastucture is going to be disastrous.

If you stay in canada you will become a junkie......

Canada has find a genius way to make the country rich by making the foreigners work for them doing all sorts of Labour. Foreigners doing the hardest work , Many left very good jobs with very good pay to move Canada , spent huge amount of money for immigration application, and find themselves stuck and going through tough time in Canada finding jobs etc \nLife in Canada is very expensive all the hard earn money ended up in paying taxes and huge bills, expensive mortgage.. some friends i know have returned back to their country..

Canada is a country where if you’re an emigrant and came here with no money, in 30 years most likely will be as poor as when you got here.

Many would have left Canada by now,but too broke to leave?. For years I couldn't even afford plane tickets out after paying my bills.

Great video!! One thing about Canada its become real shit hole because our government wants tax everyone to death then provide rebate you pay more receive nothing in return.

I wish I'd watched your video before we moved to Canada. Thank you for pointing out so many pertinent issues! We have been in Ontario for over 4 years and we have not found a family doctor yet! One of the greatest issues in Canada right now is the complete disregard for Constitutional rights, especially where medical choices are concerned.

To enlighten the drug addiction in Canada, the United States also pays for needles and drugs to keep the druggies calm and quiet. Racism and discrimination are big BIG problems in the U.S. The healthcare system does not treat people of color, different nationalities, and American Natives with the same level of care. These diverse communities tend to be treated with less health quality when compared to the white population.

Canada is a good place to raise a family not a good place to retire

I came from a 3rd world country in the Middle East. I thought Canada is a developed and first-world country like European countries, the US, Japan, South Korea, Australia, News Land, and Singapore with the western standard, and also I thought is one of the best. The first time 2018 I arrived in Vancouver, I was shocked. I saw a lot of homelessness, trash, crime, ugly urbanism, and rusty houses in downtown and east Vancouver. I saw, homeless people, pooping and peeing everywhere and it's so common. nobody cares. I was shocked again. I endured for 3 years but every day going worst. late in 2022I decided to move to the east coast because I thought that place has a stronger culture. I chose Montreal. I had heard it is the capital of art and civilization in Canada. it was absolutely wrong. Canada is Canada. I was shocked again, again, and again. the wave of homelessness, graffiti, vandalism, bad smell, terrible infrastructure especially roads in or out of the city, and above all, you can see trash everywhere. plastic bags, tissues, water bottles, and disposable cups. You cannot see any street or park or public place without these. This is impossible. surprisingly nobody cares. neither the people nor the government!!!!!!! please, don't be fooled by the advertisement about a good Canada. please, be careful. most of the things about a good Canada are deception. comparing Canada to other developed countries is wrong because Canada is only a developing country with a lot of serious problems. maybe a 2nd world country.

1:19 Don't be hasty to jump for joy that the houseless in Canada have the right to free shelter. Only the houseless themselves know what a nightmare shelters are. They actually avoid shelters.\n15:15 Absentee landlords is a despicable crime. They were responsible for 1 million deaths during the Irish genocide in 1845 to 1852. Yes, it is a fact that among those absentee landlords are many immigrants who have YouTube channels where they brag about that.

to be honest , you are showing only one side of the story . These are not students , these are economic migrant. Many citizens in Canada are also struggling with under employment, taxes , rent etc. \n\nMajority of students are working on cash , not paying any tax and useing all resources , No one wants to tell these facts.
