As a Canadian- born senior I am disappointed to hear these negative perspectives. I have seen many positive changes in the landscape from the time when diversity did not exist. In Toronto the social landscape is very much enriched by the immigrants who have come in waves over the last 70 years. I recognize the hardship of re-qualifying for professions but this must have been taken into account when considering moving to Canada. Interesting subject to reflect upon.

Well said. Me and my wife were lucky to find very goods jobs and have a good living here. Most of our time here has been during Covid. Prices are crazy, we can not dream of a house even though we are high income earners. No any real friend connection. No fun. Even health care is slow and it is scary to go for a test because of waiting times. Big lockdowns, forced vaccination, limited freedom, no functional society. For people who come from problematic countires Canada can be great. For us who just came here because we heard that Canada is great and we had no problems before comming here, is a disappointment. We are now preparing to exit Canada.

As a Canadian.... I saw the preview and was so excited... you didn't disappoint! A good laugh. My class liked it as well.

I expected Edmonton to not be on the tour list but I'm still disappointed

Brut disappointed more than the woman.

Getting immediate quick help in life-threatening situations isn't always the case either. And the attention in hospitals in Canada aren't always that great. My daughter is born in Bolivia where me and my wife are born and grown up . Later we had a son born in Canada, I was really really disappointed we got no better care as we did in the hospital. And comparing our daughter born in Bolivia was premature by C-section and costed beauty over 2000 USD , our son was C-section in Canada costing 18000 CA$ . Based on the attention gotten in both places I had no doubt left of where I'd choose to have the next child .

The Canada of today does not even remotely resemble the Canada I grew up in. It's ridiculously expensive, government services are a joke and frankly, the weather sucks. I do not recommend my country to any prospective immigrant. You'll be very disappointed.\nI'd move to France or Hungary in a heartbeat.

Unfortunately this video follows the common trend of undervaluing rural Canada. The Maritimes and the Prairies have so many hidden gems, and the people are so much more down to earth and friendly. Not to mention the peace and quiet that you can find there. Disappointed to see another video that highly favours BC, Alberta, Ontario and Quebec (the most populous provinces) and undervalues the more forgotten provinces (or territories).

Canada was a big disappointment. Left for Germany not my homecountry fir a better life.

I am very disappointed, how can this one person do this to another person, have some humanity

Nobody touched the politics in Canada. I guess, it is the #1 reason to leave Canada. Both leading parties Liberal and Conservative equally irresponsible in taking decisions, they care only about staying in power, no solving real, tough problems. \nThe education in schools is too basic. In many cases is incomparable with education in other developed countries, Asian, for example...\nThen after....another disturbing tendency- radical liberal education- \nsexeducation in school - fluid gender identity theory. \nGovernment tries to do ratification of some very controversial laws about changing gender (sex) for kids from 12 years old without parents's permission. I found it is too radical, too dangerous for kids feature. \nThink one more time, would you like to raise your kids in a such political atmosphere? I think is it the most important question! I am so disappointed in Canada. So much worries for parents and confusion for children. We ready see some sad \nresults.

I agree with all the points, but this situation is not only in Canada but everywhere. I will start from my home country India, Since graduation I was working as a part time teacher and I deadly love that profession. To qualify myself I did so many courses, internships, attended workshops, completed my B.Ed and M.Ed but everything went vain when I started searching a job. The amount of hardwork I did was not at all recognizable, salaries were so low but still I worked thinking may be later I will get an opportunity but to a disappointment it never happen. Later, I moved to UAE thinking maybe here atleast I will get what I expected, struggled for 5 months to get a job luckily I was on a family visa. I lowered my expectations, ready to work on the lowest salary but still I did no job. Finally I decided to go back to my home country but was still applying for the jobs thinking to not loose hope till the date of my flight and believe me the next day I got a call and got selected the same day with an average package not the lowest but still I was happy. So I think difficulties are everywhere it depends on how you are dealing with them and mostly being positive is the main key for success. Even I am deciding to immigrate Canada, have many friends their who are happy with their lives but it doesn't mean I should keep my hopes high but the best thing I can do is accepting whatever is coming to me and being grateful of whatever I have. (BTW teachers are underrated everywhere)

Watched a lot of your videos. One thing which have bothered me is that you always have some objection or problem with the Pakistani System which you experienced and yet you chose to RUN away from it, instead of fighting. There are a lot many people who are not as power holder as you were but they fight and take their life share from the same system in Pakistan.\n\nI do appreciate your videos where you are guiding people about different things in Canada, but please stop criticizing Pakistan in your each and every video for every tits and bits you have been through. There is always a positivity which is there in every sphere of life in Pakistan. Yes I do admit that, we have issues in Pakistan but you know it and all of us know it that all these looters and corrupt people are mostly settled in Canada, US & Europe. Why don't you identify them and send their info to the authorities you know in Pakistan.\n\nYour one trip to Pakistan after PM IK in power which didn't bore fruit as you desired made you critic of him is not justified totally as there are other priorities which he have for People of Pakistan. You can always send your suggestions to PM IK through his office.\n\nIn last, i would again like to remind you that it is Pakistan that gave you identity and fame, be it in Customs or Film making and there are a lot of people still in Pakistan who admired what you did but you disappointed all of them and chose to run away to your new home in Canada

I love both countries from Algeria ??❤️\nMaybe USA little bit more ?\nI really like Canada and Canadian people, but after watching a TV show that talks about the crimes the Canadian authorities did against the native habitants I really felt sad and disappointed.

So disappointing that there are people like this

Ohhhhhh my friggen God! Often, humans disappoint me. ?

It's 9 months already, I would be disappointed if he's not in jail yet.

As a mom to kids who are half asian, I am disappointed that there is still this kind of people in the world. \nAll my balinese/indonesian friends are nicest people in the ?

Im very disappointed with Biden at this point SMH with his immigration policies ??

She's my fellow Filipino citizen and my dream is to live in Alberta. but when i saw how racist they were. my disappointment is immeasurable. And my dream is ruined!!

People LOVE talking how much better we are than America but once we look in the mirror it seems we get really upset, disappointing, I thought we were better?

I would like to believe this story but CBC fakes so much stuff that they cover. A lot of their exposes are filled with scripted encounters and are planned. Very disappointed in them.

Disappointed you barely scratched the surface. More different then you made them out to be. Still enjoying your channel.

Hi brother such a nice video. M really disappointed from Agents. Plz u can help me? Agents say give 15 lakh then u can got PR.

Gotta say this video was kinda disappointing. This was probably the most basic video you could make explaining differences.

Wow get charged $900,000 when I’m taking in $10,000,000, gee where do I sign. Canada sadly has become such a disappointment. Slap on the hand punishments plus I get to keep my citizenship.

As a Filipina, I have always been looking up to the Canadians as I heard a lot of good things about them. I am definitely disappointed. ?

How disappointing. I feel so bad for this man and his young family and so many like them. I hope they’re able to find a safe, peaceful home. Isn’t that all everyone wants?

native americans have it worse than anyone by far. My nephew is native and he'll do fine. his parents are amazing and he's ridiculously brilliant so i don't see him doing anything but succeed, but a kid without the back up of a strong family and his IQ, heck i don't think it will go well. it does hurt his feelings, even at his young age the other kids he's in school with are very disappointing.\ni have witnessed this discrimination almost every time i am where natives are other than where they are well known. Little kids get looks that aren't at all admiring their cuteness....and they are plenty cute kids. I was shocked when it was told to me, unbelieving, thats when i started watching.

It always disappoints me to see that because of the fact Québec isn't its own country people still ignore its culture and proceed to just show Canadian aspects (not Québec aspects). Therefore, Vive le Québec libre!\nAlso Poutine, Maple Syrup (sirop d'érable) come from Québec.

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.

Oh. My. Holly. God! Look at this comment section if those people are the Canadians im trully disappointed wow!

I am a bit disappointed here I thought you would draw a list of subtle and little known differences that you noticed in your trips, but instead you just named a few obvious differences that anyone can also find in the first paragraph of Wikipedia in thosw two countries pages.

As a minority, this is disappointing

Due to too many unhappy citizens of many lands, most productive, constructive countries are over- flooding with other nations peoples. It’s too much. When a person goes somewhere other than their own land less and less of these countries are willing to allow any more refugees in their country. Why because it’s about economics. In economic in an economy all things must be paid for. This is an Democratic society, almost all things are available through businesses. The medium of exchange for all ‘goods and services ‘ are conducted through the means of money. The masses of our nations people are not wealthy. Which most indulge themselves in employment. Employment in exchange for hours of pay we get paid.!The person most quailed to be employed are the citizens of these nations and not other nations people. What I am saying is that each land is more interested in their own home grown employee. So when you the non resident come without our permission you are the one placing yourself and your family in peril. Which means you are responsible for the pain and losses you suffer do to you either misunderstandings or non-available knowledge. Work towards asking for a better government for your own home land. And less people will be disappointed when you are rejected from lands who are already too filled !

You need to go to real estate agencies un by African Americans and or native Americans. This study is skewed. I was disappointed in the sensationalism involved. Yes there is racism but your study is flawed

This is so frustrating. I spent twelve years in the apartment industry and went through literally hundreds of hours of Fair Housing Training. I was given test shoppers on numerous occasions, just like every other property manager I knew and I always passed with flying colors because I stuck to a script and said everything the same way, even with the same tone of voice, every time. It didn't matter who was in front of me, my job was more important than anything else and that meant absolutely no possibility of discrimination. Here in the US, management companies and even the individuals onsite can be held monetarily responsible if testers find them to be discriminatory. It is very disappointing to see property staff making such bluntly poor choices. We all know better in that industry. This is the 21st century, we should be beyond this.

Please not in Canada, please. Please. I can’t face this if its true, am shocked and disappointed. This hurts, not in my Canada.

Being muslims I realize that these are the types if Westerners think of when thinking of muslims. But like these are just a disappointment to the entire muslim community

Personally, I have the upmost respect towards the percentage of people who practice their religion’s peacefully and with peaceful intent. However, I have absolutely no respect towards the percentage of people who practice their religion’s violently and with violent intent. Instead, I feel disappointment towards the percentage of people who practice their religion’s violently. They have put themselves into a position of being easy targets for manipulation. Through manipulation they are being misguided and eventually radicalized.\nWhich is twisting their perspective upon reality causing them to say and do things that they normally would not say or do.\nPersonally, that is why I generally never became interested in religion.

Disappointed mini punjab..\nEducated illiterate people.\nIndia 3rd powerful country\nCanada ?\n1000 Reasons That Make me Feel Proud To Be An Indian.

I’m just a 20 year-old girl. Before I went to Canada, I heard that Canadian are really nice and friendly so I strongly believe that. Yes, it’s true, not totally. I still feel really hurt and disappointed

To be clear, Many people rely on this network for the 'truth'. Not so much disappointed this individual persons who believed this, as disappointed with the unbalanced viewpoint this story reflected. Wishing all networks could provide a balanced viewpoint. This is not a balanced Canadian viewpoint. \nAt all. \nThis person is not representative, and is ' hoaxative'.\nJust asking people to learn more. ( I know you were told that he loves the uneducated..... but reading and learning is not terrible.)

Disappointed me the way that girl said i don't wanna go back to india.. i love my india. .no matter what..☺☺❤❤???jai hind.
