Go anywhere except Vancouver, Toronto. Populate the smaller cities and grow those

Forecasted this happening way back in 2019. When the pandemic hit, I was 100% sure this was where it was headed in the next few years. \nI gave Canada a chance and moved from Vancouver to Calgary, that didn't work out. The same problems are there just repackaged into different ones.\nNow in the US...a few years in and I can't believe I didn't do it earlier.

Ways to clean up and get our country back:\n1. Remove work permit and guaranteed PR after 3 years for Indians only. They ruin the culture, ruin the social experience for other brown folks, makes brown folks from other countries stand out like creeps (speaking from experience) \n2. Deny anyone asking for refugee and turn asylum seekers around.\n3. FULL stop to non citizens buying land and property. Ex: China and Chinese migrants own almost 70% of housing plots in Vancouver.

Trying coming to Vancouver. It's a more left leaning area compared to Calgary and Toronto.

my friend just broke his collarbone near vancouver bc, and waited 5 days for surgery. totally screwed system

You guys need to consider making your politics less socialist. Quit whining, and move to Alberta or outside Vancouver, or anywhere up north. Lots of jobs, lots of money. Keep bringing in immigrants, have them build, like US is doing. If you do this, you can't lose. Really Canada can't lose in the future. In the event of a global calamity, it's one of only seven 'sancturary' states in the world, and it is by far the largest. Get rid of the carbon tax. You aren't Brunei. Take the long view; If Canada keeps supporting global warming, they can't lose. Be more careful giving away any more northern lands to the Inuit, that land will be very valuable soon.

its not just brampton its Vancouver and surrounding cities becoming india.what i noticed about the cities is indians are for indians they don't integrate or help non indians when they get wealth they blame a Whiteman living rough as its there doing and they deserve there misfortunes.every industry the indians under cut force other out of business trucking construction trades.its out of hand the land belongs to indigenous people they should be consulted on who comes to there lands.

I still don`t understand why Canada is so Pro Punjabi/Sikh Immigration ? Other than the The Komagata Maru. Where in 1914, anchoring in Vancouver's Coal Harbour. Nearly all of the 376 passengers were denied entry. Is it Truth and Reconciliation?

It’s absolutely disgusting here in Vancouver. You can’t go anywhere your flooded with hindus & there All talking on their phones.

all the fun stuff is gone. look at vancouver in the 90’s, it was amazing .

You make it seem like Toronto and Vancouver are the ONLY cities in Canada.

Im 34.. been in canada my whole life... simply idk anything lower than combined income of 120k per year is survivable in canada... thats not including vanccity, had to move out of vancouver as it wasnt worth it living there anymore.

Just wait until more millennials get locked out of the housing/home market. With rents in the GTA, Vancouver and other major metros skyrocketing. If these Liberal government shenanigans aren’t ended by the next election it’ll be hell.\n\nHeck, RCMP already is already preparing for outright riots and revolt (check the national post article) in the near future. \n\nThe economic damage Covid and this governments mismanagement of it caused is the problem. Sweeping rules put many small business owners and other job creators out, large oligarchy’s got to sweep in and buy at cost or damn near. There is no easy fix, there’ll be years of this to endure and most rational people will leave the moment an opportunity presents itself.

So what would you say about BC with all the Chinese in Vancouver.....is that any better than Brampton with all the Indians ?

it;s such a shame, i was in vancouver, bc for 1 month from sydney, australia and honestly the country and city is really so nice, i would love to move there but i really learnt quick that vancouver and my home city of sydney are twins with the economic downfall and cost of living crisis, also heavily taxed, and proof is on the pudding now with sydney and vancouver being direct 2nd and 3rd most unaffordable and expensive cities on the planet right now as we speak in 2024, such a shame

I remember a rally in Vancouver, to decrease immigration levels… It was overwhelmed by it, tenfold, bigger protest against them holding signs equating those who are against immigration as equivalent to Nazi genocidal maniacs… As long as the left has so much power in Canada to call all opposition far right extremist equivalent to neo-Nazis there’s no possibility of countering the flow, the flood.

People are also very cold in Canada especially in Vancouver. You are pretty much on your own for everything. People seem nice and reasonable, but they don't really care about others except themselves.

bring the hindus . Vancouver canada is the place.

Dear immigrants Canada has its problems it's a fact. But you mostly are obsessed by Toronto and Vancouver. You buy a doghouse in these cities for 1,5 millions. Avoid ghettos of these cities. Go elsewhere.

I work in US Immigration. All Indian fraud Asylum seekers. Charter flights thru Dubai. A lot come thru Vancouver. Lie in their Asylum applications.

You cherry pick examples to support your point of view and take everything to the extreme. Trying to drive fear, get attention, etc.. Instead of taking averages you should be looking at medians, since averages are skewed by the luxury market. In order to put Canada's situation in context, why don't you compare to US and other markets? Why don't you break things down by city? Have you been to Vancouver - it's expensive because it's absolutely incredible there.

They replaced whites in almost all suburbs in vancouver with chinese and indians toronto and vancouver both ethnic chinese mayors

These comment section filled with Anti-Indian Hate. \nCanadian Immigration system is a Point Based System which means who ever have higher points will be awarded the Green Card or Work Permit. \nIndians are super competitive when it comes to immigration ? with their Levels of English, Education, Social support from society, French skills and Employment in High skills and young pool of people. Indians beat everyone. Meanwhile, Chinese ?? Language is WRITTEN all over on Vancouver Airport with Canadian ?? Tax money ? and Vancouver being Chinese island now. No one talks about. Indians assimilate in western society, without forcing their religion on to others, like many fake refugees from Muslim world.\nIndians commit most least crimes unlike many Blavk people.\nIndians don’t need government assistance like Natives and Indians pay taxes in highest numbers.\nIndians directly compete with White Canadians and that is the reason there is so much hate for them as others feel inferior and dominate power feel their dominance is in question. ?

Essentially, they are finding ways to exploit their entry into the country, unlike my parents who had to wait patiently for years to come to Canada. I belong to an ethnic group. In the 1960s, when my parents immigrated to Canada, only a limited number of people from our ethnic group were allowed in. My parents were compelled to assimilate into Canadian culture to make friends. I had hoped to marry someone from my own ethnic group, but there were few eligible women. Therefore, both my brothers and I married Anglo-Saxon women. While I take pride in my parents' background, I do not live in a segregated community of my own kind. Instead, I reside in a mixed area and have no intention of bringing over 100,000 people from my village back home to Canada. Canada needs to restrict immigration until we get a handle on our housing and social services levels. Also, not all new immigrants should be allowed to move to Toronto or Vancouver. They should be sent to live in provinces such as Saskatchewan or Manitoba for the first 10 years. I am sure they need skilled workers. Also, would be forced to assimilate like my family did back in the 1960s because there would not be a massive enclave from their own culture in one area. Also, the reason my parents moved to Canada was their former country was Balkanized into different ethnic groups that exploded into a massive civil war. Canada might be in danger of that in the future. Certain ethnic groups don't tolerate certain policies that have happened in Canada. When they get to a large enough number all hell will break lose as they will have to culture and political power to fight back.

To be honest this is not just a Canada problem, I work in recruitment in Canada across from Ontario to Vancouver remotely from South Africa. Its pretty much the same here. Most people live paycheck to paycheck. I manage to save despite also studying still and working, and life, but if i was working like my peers jobs here. I'd still live at 33 at my parents. That a lot of people do. \n\nI think its an international issue. But the reasons like safety, winter and cold, religion, definitely look at asian countries for sure. \n\nWent to Vietnam last year, the level of safety was amazing there, if you could keep Salary from Canada and move to a country like that you can live extremely comfortable.

I’m a 68 yr old female Senior (caregiver) living in my car because my only option after a 3 yr wait was BC Housing near the DTES … these are SLUMS that we are supposed to be Thankful for … most of these buildings answer to no one because they get their funding from a number of sources … the STAFF are allowed to treat the Residents anyway they like, with No Conscience… if Canada can’t supply decent housing to their Citizens then they should STOP IMMIGRATION… most new immigrants are treated better financially then the citizens who live here …. The building I lived in is called PENDERA at Pender St. & Beatty Street in Vancouver… it ALL looks good from the outside so people really want to move in …. That’s when the trouble starts … I lived in a RAT INFESTED APARTMENT FOR 6 yrs!!!

I wanted so badly to become a Canadian but sadly, after living in Vancouver for 1.5 years, it became apparent that staying in BC would mean never being able to afford to start a business (let alone buy a house) and that making friends was not something locals were interested in doing. I discovered that Canadians were exceedingly polite and helpful to others in the community, but not friendly. The difference is someone being kind enough to return a lost wallet (with the money/cards still in it!! WOW) or phone but won't invite you to their homes, join friend groups, or social circles. Side note.. I also learned that I prefer more overt racism than the polite version experienced in Canada. At least you know where you stand with someone..

A. How is it multi-culturism if it's all Indians??\nB. It's not just Brampton, Indians are all over Canada now, Vancouver, Calgary, Toronto, Ottawa have all fallen ☹

Check out Thailand, it addresses most of your concerns. I'm Chinese and have also left Vancouver for a better opportunities.

Please ask in Vancouver or the greater Vancouver area and Victoria British Columbia

No mass immigration on crowded provinces. Especially in BC (Vancouver), Ontario or Alberta (Calgary and Edmonton).

Ask this question in Vancouver & Ottawa

Okay so here's what you didn't talk about, what nobody ever talks about. \n\nYou only spoke about the capitals in each province which are the smallest fraction what what Canadian culture and economy are truly like. \n\nBurley Canadian culture, affordable homes, crazy landscapes, island paradises, the artic all hold a rarely told tale. \n\nEveryone complains about affordable housing where virtually everywhere in Canada is affordable. Excluding Vancouver and Toronto metropolitans. \n\nCulture is back and white from these 49th paralleled cities to anyplace else in Canada. \n\n- born, raised and traveled Canada.

Small affordable apartments, studios, 2 and 3 bedrooms need to be built in the major cities like Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal….not houses…because on the same land a house is built there could be a building …and take universities accountable for the students they take money from by having enough students rooms to shelter them because now they are in regular apartments in colocation…

Good Day Harrison, \nAnother highly informative video and excellent journalism from you, sir. \nIf you could please take a trip to Vancouver and area, that would be great. \n\nThank you for all of your work, very impactful for the future of our glorious Canada.

Good luck to you. I'm actually not sure of any faith.. I was raised in Vancouver. By the ministry. Ward of the courts. I'm just finding my way now after years of uncertainty.. and u just wanted to say that it's beautiful to see a man and wife interact and vocalize their faith and what they want for their children so publicly. I am proud of you. I just picked your video randomly and truly, it touched my hear. .. I wish you well.. and thank you.

Thanks for the great video guys! I just uploaded my experience as an international student from the US and immigrated to Vancouver, Canada and became a Canadian Citizen last year. \n\nStressful and long 8 years but definitely worth it ❤ \n\nLiked and subscribed to your channel!

Vancouver is the best

Lots of Indians or lots of Drug addicts like East Hastings Vancouver ?

Too many all at once, as well as they dont mingle with others, and form there own little cities in the big city. Look at Vancouver, in Surrey. Its house after house all east indian no whites,blacks,mixed whatever. This is a big mistake.!!

Twice in my life I got hired to do a job and was not paid for my work. Both times it was Indians who hired me. This was in Calgary. One of the jobs was for an Indian-run startup. They make our country worse. They also litter like crazy. Go to Fraser Street in Vancouver. It's covered in garbage. Canada has turned into a sh-t hole

BC at 4th kills this list. Vancouver area and the Okanagan is hard to beat.

What about the Chinese taking over Vancouver, let's talk about that too.

Hi Febby,\nI am a Canadian Citizen living in Toronto and would like to move to Vancouver for a better employment. Could you please advise me on which suburb is safer to find an apartment to live in the BC.

Canada is very expensive. One of my friend who had moved there with her husband and is employed and well paid as usual in IT industry says it is much more difficult even with double salary on the higher levels to sustain in parts of Canada like Vancouver as the prices are extremely high including rental and commodity prices.\n\nI had tried for Canada but could not gather enough points due to my age, probably it has turned out a blessing

Montreal is decaying. No real employment opportunities in most of Canada except in Toronto, Calgary and Vancouver.

Price of everything going up like crazy but wages aren't keeping up. It's not like the prices will go down either anytime soon.\n\nThis steady increase of everything which involves a person's basic needs is unsustainable, isn't it\n\nAnd that's just in Alberta. What about places such as Vancouver and Toronto?\n\nHow much more expensive will everything be in what, 5 years?

Guys, Canada is big, u will never find jobs (or) be able to afford to live in Canada if u guys prefer just to live in Toronto, Vancouver or Montreal. My suggestion is explore northern Canada, jobs are plenty in those area with no one to work. New immigrants just dont explore outside the box in opinion. I am living example, came as a student, studied & worked median jobs fr 3yrs. Secured a professional job in the 4year and I travelled all across Canada fr opportunities (East,West,North & South). The minute u step outside u will see a bigger unexplored Canada that many new immigrants r missing out.
