I dunno man I have been reading through the comments and it occurs to me.\nDont move from your own country out of the desire to make money or better ones career.\n\nMoney is a shallow thing and will leave you wanting every time.\n\nIf you do leave your country, do it to escape persecution or because you are in love and are getting married to someone and it is easier to move to where they are.\n\nI moved from the US to the Netherlands due to the latter, and have lived here for several years.\n\nI am comfortable here, and the particular Dutch culture I live around (In the Gelderland), is similar to the region of America I am from, even the food is similar but; people are born and tied to the dirt of their Grandparents.\n\nThe love of my wife is why I have remained. \nI know that someday I will likely move to back to America, and when we do my Dutch wife will make the same sacrifice.

Great video. I am a Canadian that works with newcomers. I have lived abroad and back again. We recently did a trip to the U.S. A great trip overall but I agree with a lot of your comments about the suburbs. We saw some beautiful neighbourhoods in the US (and here in Canada) but there are almost no signs of life. I grew up in the suburbs and it was nice as a kid because we were always outside but as soon as I finished school, I couldn't wait to get out. My old neighbourhood is now a bedroom community built for the car. Now, I live downtown in a major Canadian city. My house is very small and old but I wouldn't trade it for the world. I always see people, rain or shine, snow or hail. I see families, dogs, dogwalkers, children, seniors with canes. I love it because I see life. Living in a neighbourhood like the one in this video would indeed feel lonely and isolating.

I must confess that I knew from the start of watching this video that it will be loaded with a lot to learn from, I love your openness and the way you challenge whoever listened or watched you. Without being modest, I made bold to say you are a great mentor and teacher. I'm not so good at commenting on project like these ?? but I can't hide my feeling born out of the guilt that I saw from your video that I have not helped myself. I'm grateful for these information ??, \nLessons learned.??

Some things about Nova Scotia I think should be mentioned: \n\nJust Halifax and the south shore has mild weather. Anywhere north of Halifax and it is very snowy due to the Frozen Northumberland Strait, Bay of Fundy and the Cape Breton highlands. We are EXTREMELY HUMID. We might not (usually) hit 40 degrees like other provinces, but our humidex temperature can sometimes go above 38 several times a WEEK.\n\nOur wages need to catch up and our healthcare sucks. Our population is EXPLODING. This video is already outdated. When it was released on the 3rd of October is had 982,000. It already has 1,003,000 as of this comment!!!! This is causing house prices to absolutely explode. Which is ticking off locals on top of a super deadly shooting in 2020 and covid, we are a little worn out and cranky I've noticed lately. But we are usually the nicest people ever! \n\nNova Scotia is so beautiful and wonderful.

Hello sir can you help me fine a job as a excavator operator I have no education not even go to school and I learned my English language on cyber cafe and some friends who teach me and I have a sick mother mayasimya cravis and I would like to work on Canada soo that when I have enough money I want to get my mother operations please sir hope you notice this comment I'm from malaysia by the way

Which country are these people talking about on the comments? Canada is a top 5 worldwide country and surpass 95% of all places on earth in quality of life, career, stable economy etc. They talk like Vancouver/Toronto downtown is the only place to live here. Europe is an old dump and fallen in every sense, and there are tons of them arriving in Canada every fucking day. Too much BS in here

I agree with all the other comments by my fellow Canadians - spot on gentlemen! Well done!! Got my Toronto show tickets ordered last night and I see the venue is about 3/4 full already - 2 days after announcing - that's gotta tell you something about your reach, and your impact. I've been watching your Thursday videos for years, but like many others have said, you three were a ray of light in the darkness of the past 20 or so months. Keep on keeping on. Be well, be safe, be happy. gord.

Yeah is it like a private establishment where you can just deny to provide service and storm off? Is that responsible or mature? I know people are saying that they wont come to any conclusion by just seeing half of the story but in the same breadth they are also excusing and justifying the behaviour of the officer saying the couple must have done something to make him so angry, that there must be a valid justified reason for his anger.\nThats called coming to conclusions, from half side of the story nonetheless. \nGiven what we can see, officer is in the wrong to storm off and deny them service when the lady specially says her father died. I think people should be courteous and empathetic enough to offer kindness and patience in those situations. But then again, thats just my opinion, seeing the comments, many may not agree.

Now i am liking my all comments.\nTo show some moral support to me.

I'm new so I subscribed I like how good these facts are\nUsa looks like the winner\nI got an error 503 so I can't see comments

helllo. Thanks for your video. I would like if you like me something related to my profession (veterinary). And thanks for reading my comment, nice day.

This is fucking stupid!! Why bother doing this shit??\nAren’t we divided enough these days??\nWhat one person likes, another person doesn’t. It’s subjective. But this platform is about getting views, likes and comments (yes I’m aware of the irony of me commenting) to get monetization. \n\nDo better!!

I would like to travel to canada with my cat, using single entry visa. Can you comment?

gosh. i was hoping to immigrate to canada as a nurse. but the comments here ratioed to not liking canada. well... US it is. but i love the video. im learning a lot.

Nice summary of the main challenges. Reading some of these comments leads me to believe that if one is motivated solely by money, Canada is not a great choice for you as an immigrant. The number of commenters hoping to move to the US from Canada due to greater opportunities to make money while ignoring the real and substantial disadvantages of living south of the borders just emphasizes this. My family are immigrants from the US and we didn’t face the same challenges as immigrants from countries further afield but I do understand the differences between the two countries very well and can state unequivocally that moving to Canada was the best decision our family made. Lower crime, better health care (yes even with the wait times), a fairer system and a “boring” but sane political system more than compensate for the few extra dollars I would make south of the border. In terms of where better prospects going forward for children and grandchildren, with the looming threat of climate change, Canada wins hands down. Extra income means little if you have to spend all of it on personal security and health care deductibles. So if you are only motivated by top line items like gross annual salary, Canada might not be for you and you would be better off looking elsewhere and leaving that immigration spot open to someone who can appreciate the more balanced offering that a new life and future in Canada can offer.

I was reading the comments and for me sounds like that those people are talking about another country. I am Brazilian, I would like that you guys have a chance to living here, haha, it´s so expensive, a lot of fo taxes, racism, corrupt politicians all the time. I have a friend living in Montreal and for her, it´s like a dream.

Interesting comment, there are more nice people than rude people, and very true! i experienced that in Canada and i think is in the entire continent..and definitely not like here in Europe.. in Central Europe and East Europe people are very arrogant in the service! and we have to live like this -.-

I totally agree with your video.\n\nI am European, and l have been living in Canada for 7 years, including 4 years in Toronto 2 years Ottawa and now In Montreal.\n\nWhen l arrived in Canada l started from the scratch in order to get Canadian experiences and improve my Eng, undestanble and l accept as new comer.\n\nI come back to college in order to get Canadian Educatiom post graduate program. \n\nI got my Canadian Citizenship, l am improving my French, as we know its important to be Bilingual in Canada.\n\nSo far after all this steps l didn't find my perfect and dreaming job, harder to find well paid job and stable.\n\nSometime l feel l loose my time here. I learned the well paid job need strong connection, no well paid or low income for new comers. That why Canadian Gov. need new immigrant .\n\nCanada its not country for opportunity for every one, and it is not well being city, cost the life its extremely hight, renting in Toronto and Vancouver are impossible to manage specially like me single, social life a little boring and trashy compare Europe.\nHigh cost to travel domestically and internationally are crazy, compare euro and USA, so sometime l feel stocks here.\n\nProbaly someone after read my comments, they think why you here? Come back you home country? \n\nWell l could but l have to start again from scratch in my country, l say l am in the limbo now.....

Thank you for making the video, however, it does not depict the entire picture of immigration and immigrants’ situation in Canada ( re jobs, re-education & immigrants moving back to their countries). I hope my comment is not perceived negatively, but it stems from personal experiences: I am an immigrant, I’ve been in Canada for 28 years; I work in the immigration field; my partner is a new immigrant from Europe, with a degree in the medical field..A lot of what you say can be true , but it lacks depth, analysts & most importantly the bigger picture. \n\nPlease widen the scope of your research & explain the rational as to why things may be the way i they are. \n\nRe. Taxes; please compare to so-called 1st world countries like Germany, France, etc...

No country like your own Country India I am proud not a II class ....read the comments given by people !!

Canada like ✅ \nUsa comment

People in this comment section are defending each others country, I mean like why??, don't we all know that racism is everywhere like no matter where you go, you will find at least 1 person who is narrow minded\nAnd that's a freaking true!!

Why make Pakistan like this Canada please comment

Brother I am a regular listener of your videos. Almost saw all of your videos. I also did ecrticise on your last video. I personally have nothing to say against your views. I personally believe that you are an honest, hard worker and loyal Pakistani. I have no doubt at all. I believe you say words from your heart. But the last comment which I did was the mentality of different standards of people with their views on different interpretation like if a person does some thing wrong against minorities it doesn't mean he is islamic extremism it is the mind set. Mind set which exists in pakistan , Australia or any other country that's it.

Like my comment who like trump

Its even funnier that hes a pasta that cant even stand right, if you would of throwed a thing on him he would falled like a domino. Edit: sorry needed to comment this No offense to Skinny People everyone look Good Exactly how you look, but maybe not him tho.

Good day everyone, i will like to talk about the goodness in my life after so many months of trying to get a loan on the internet and was been scammed so i became desperate in getting a loan from a legit lender on-line then i saw a comment from a friend called Mary Kross and she talked about this legit loan company where she got her loan fast and easy without any stress so she introduced me to a man called Mr Aksel erikson who controls a firm called Aksel Loan Provider.\n\nI applied for a loan sum of ($760,000.00 USD) with low interest rate of 3% so the loan was approved and deposited into my bank account that was how i was able to get my loan to keep my broken business running and also to pay off my bills so i am advising everyone of you who is interested in getting a loan fast and easy to kindly contact them via email: Marvellousloan802@gmail.com or whatapp +14062017349

Half of the people in the comments want to move to Canada. One small tip if you are ok with losing your deen if some how you were able to save your self then losing your kids and live in a ice box alone in the old age with strangers who will treat you like garbage then Canada is the place to be everybody welcome . Dont come back and tell me I am exaggerating been living in the west for last 23 years know this society inside out and what Pakistani are going through day in and day out .

I am from the USA. I want to move to Canada one day and escape this hell. I've read many comments and I only have one question. Will I be safe in Canada? Can I get a good job? Will I have a fair chance? If I start a family will they be safe and not judged by the color of their skin like I am in the US? :(\n\nThat's all I want to know. Thank you :)

Ok the comments i keep seeing here are saying certain places in canada now im curious. Ill make a pole and like if you have experinced racism in these provinces. (Like because dislikes dont appear we need to know which provinces need change most) DON'T COMMENT

Comments that are offensive and likely to expose someone to hatred or contempt on the basis of race, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, sex, sexual orientation, age or mental or physical disability are prohibited. http://bit.ly/2kwCAnE

Originally this comment was like the size of a book talking about just some of the specific examples of Police and civilian racism I witnessed with my own Caucasian eyes in this country. I am extremely patriotic and I love being Canadian but I have been saying for years that we have problems when it comes to racism but no one here wants to even acknowledge it. Of course we're not as bad as our neighbors but at least they talk about it and seem to want to come to terms with their bigotry and institutionalized racism in society. As long as we keep pretending we don't TO THIS DAY have an ongoing history with systemic racism in politics, policing and even in the workplace than we will never in real life be the actual Canada we try to tell the world and ourselves we really are and that makes me deeply sad and ashamed.

EVEN the comments and likes/ dislikes show a story. Read and understand what this means. Look at HISTORY and how and who it serves... white people and white privileged is very real folks

I love all of these white people commenting like there grandparents didn't come to Canada illegally

Guys before saying racist comments . Remember that refugees and immigrants help built this country , we love and defend this country just like you . God bless Canada .

It’s crazy how I learn from the comments how racist Canadians are. I would never imagine that. So sad, you have to know this guys reality is very different from yours. You are like trump supporters with ur hurtful comments. Be kind to people who are struggling to survive. How many are they that don’t want to work. He wants

Like Canada comment USA

Canada team like my comment

As a Canadian who has traveled to 12/13 provinces/territories (sorry NFLD) and all regions of the mainland USA I have couple comments. First, both Canada and the USA the accents and culture are very different depending on the area (another similarity!). People from Vermont have more in common with people from New Brunswick than they do with their fellow Americans in Texas. People from British Columbia have more in common with people from Washington than they do with Quebeckers. Second, I actually find that Americans are super friendly in some states, more outgoing than Canadians (like say Tennessee). Also, Drew, if you ever want to go to the Far North in Canada it's a whole other world of Inuit people speaking Inuktitut on Baffin Island - for me that area seems like another country!

If you like Canada ?? drop a ?? \nIf you like USA ?? comment

First like - comment

Typical biased reporting by the Canadian MSM, but at least unlike the spineless, pig in the trough CBC, they allow comments on topics like this.

Their are so many holes in these investigations it’s almost like they don’t want you to comment. This “I feel like you don’t like me so your entire race is bad” Is pure B.S.
