Bro. Thanks for shining the light so bright. We are well informed... We are blessed to see you shine. We shall meet and reconnect soon.

The world has changed. It's wild what we are seeing right now. Like the affordability crisis is like something I've never seen. We moved to NYC two decades ago and the rent for our first apartment never went over $1k a month. My mom was making minimum wage the entire 13 years we lived there and while we were very much meeting the requirements for public assistance, her job could at least cover the majority of the necessities. The immigrants coming in today would be lucky to find a room for the rent we paid.

Dam that means this all started with one person and the message branched out from there . \n ?? we all meeting at the border to brake through @ 12a.m_ on Sunday.\n \n Can someone tell us what's going on in Venezuela.\nScary shit

This is not nice to show anger to G7 country that has all Indian states people... This childish spat between them for one Sikh murder costs huge loss to Tamil people living in Canada.. I urge MEA to stop this childish act maintain the stable and healthy relation with Canada because many Tamilians are working there in Canada... India should stop bullying it's allies and foreign policies else many countries will reject Indians and its will be huge calamity in economy, pride, resources and jobs in India for Centre and States.. India is main advantage that it can exports cheap laborers to other countries like France Australia etc where their govt agreed to replace their citizens by these Indians... MEA jaishankar should mind his tongue and stop abusing others and supporting India's irresponsible behaviour during summits and meet on wars and other event... Must take notes on Pakistan delicately balancing mighty and opposite countries KSA, US, UK and China... India is gaining newer enemies after Pak and China eg Ukraine dead against India now, Canada, Palestine, Turkey etc... Whereas Pak gaining new friends like Russia, Iran even Japan... Remember India, Tamil Nadu is there and you cannot take advantage of us... Please go and stop this nonsense and maintain smooth relation and safeguard Tamil people in Canada....

Great job Nitish really wanna meet u bro

00:14 ?️ Canada has a significant homeless population, especially in major cities. The country allocates substantial funds for social services and shelters.\n03:17 ? Canada, known for its multiculturalism, also faces silent and systemic racism. Some statistics indicate disparities in income and hate crimes against certain minority groups.\n05:22 ⚕️ Canada's healthcare system has limitations. Access to family doctors may take time, and specialized care may require convincing. The system struggles to meet the needs of the growing population.\n08:12 ?️ Canada lags in technology adoption due to conservatism, infrastructure challenges, and risk aversion. Critical sectors like healthcare, finance, and telecom have been slow to innovate.\n09:59 ? Canadian taxes, though not the highest, can be complex.

Hello where can we meet

Hello ...Are you still here. we can meet.

Good ? vlog my dream is that you meet chatty and scatty

HI I'm Canadian I'm so happy to meet you and welcome to Canada

young brother Hindus are 60% of NRI in Canada. But let you know we all are punjabi first. they all loved helped each other. Hate is new thing on religion base for Punjabis. Talwinder singh parmar we never even heard of him I lived very closed to his house. One day at the airport this guy appeared with eight nine people with garland and were told he is separates . Dr Jagjit singh chauhan was presented as a leader that wants Khalistan . He was high level Congress leader. After so much life lost hate created This bastard went back to India and died peacefully in his bed. While thousands of innocent peoples life was taken and labeled as terrorist that are killing Hindus. I am atheist but i hope i go to hell to meet Indra and sons along with some others from her party All this hare dead and destruction of Punjabis is all because of one evil lady. that wanted absolute power and control in India. She spend Billions to create hate among Punjabis.

I traveled through New England this summer and it was a great trip. I didn’t meet any rude Americans but they definitely are closed off with each other in small group settings. It was so bizarre.

You are better dead than poor in the USA. Your politics are entertainment, and very destressing. No matter which side you are on, about 50% of the people hate you. There is no middle ground, meanwhile your children die more from gunshot than anything else. You have made law and order a business, incarnating more citizens than any other country in the world. You have made medical a business as well, again , better dead than poor in the USA. \n I have meet some fine US people, the general population is not that much different from Canadians. The people are not the government, either, they are just people. \n I don't hate, or even dislike the USA, I just feel they have a system in place that doesn't really represent the average citizen. One thing I would love to see in the US is a third political party, more middle of the line. Something is needed to pull America back together again.

Putting the health operators' budgets, which based on ACTUAL costs of doing business with doctors. There's a long time to get your OWN doctor. They are able to refer you to a work history that is BEST for the patient. There's very little bragging about how many appendectomies you did today. Doctor x gets a negotiated salary. That means there's no spedway operating rooms, unless that's the case, at the moment. I'm such a klutz, I would either die from poverty, or starve to death, to meet the payments to stay alive. You probably try the James Bond thing. Don't have any conversations with people who you REALLY don't know. Stayin alive! Stayin alive!\nIt's a real pity about all the tornados, and the hurricane ? problem, there's a real rebuild that needs to be done on bridges, and disaster areas, and there are far too many deserted buildings. You want to get rid of the drug problem, (not the law, necessarily) then do your best to eliminate them. Parks are what people need in the cities of 3, 4, 5 million people, where it is so expensive to go anywhere, and you can't get the time to go there. It's just everyone is running around with some illness, and what George said is true. I think he's one of the best representatives of the life that doesn't give you time to think.

Thank you for this video. I hope more people watch it. You can’t leave Africa and come to Canada as an unskilled person. I see many people working 2-3 jobs just to make ends meet and it saddens me.

As a hindu i can say i had met great sikhs ? I am. From patna bihar and in patna sahib gurdwara there are lot of sikhs who are good they actually have respect for us and we have for them nowadays people trolling sikhs isn't good they are great people once you meet them ? ❤️ and in langar they also feed every person no discrimination .?❤ Hope everyone should spread a peace ✌️?️

Amin Ontario Canada , I came on a visiting visa, I have watch lots of your video, I will like to meet with you or have a way to reach you on phone

The life of an Indian in a foreign land can be summed up in the old classic Kishore Da song Yeh Jeevan Hai Is Jeevan ko Yehi Hai Yehi Hai.Yeh No Socho Isme Kitni Har Hai Ki Jeet Hai As a sr recently in U S. I am daily meeting N.R.I. s and got their feed back They honestly told me our heart is in India but the Sheet money power of Dollar is making us to live here which we cannot Dream in India.Repeat of the Song Kuch kho kar Pana Hai kuch Pakar Kona Hai Jeevan ka Matlab Hai Aana Aur Jana Hai.

I want to meet you sir... Plz

Extreme Cold, high mortgage interest rates, slow medical facility, high insurance, inflation, legal drugs, all do work yourself at home, no fd etc available, everyone busy, just meet on weekends, cold beaches and become full of algae in summers, lot of stabbings, car thefts etc.

Excellent motivational video. Mr Raman Dua is a gem of a person and he has the persona and ability to change people's lives! I watch a lot of bloggers , but this is the first time I am watching such a lengthy podcast. I would love to meet Raman one day as I believe in associating with positive people like him. Hats off to you Sir, for being so humble and successful! ? ?

Hello sir, Im your new subscriber. I remember my dad meeting you at 27 may this year. At agra maybe. Please reply me :)

Have you seen the ones (refugees) being bussed around New York and other US states? If you come in the right way (to any Western country, Canada or otherwise) your assimilation will be much smoother. Moving to a new country (or even city for that matter) is always riddled with challenges, not just financial, also social, technological etc. As an East African immigrant to Canada, I meet a lot of newer immigrants with over ambitious and dreamy expectations, most having entered the wrong way!

Nitish you do not know how many sikh people were killed burtaly during 1984 with fake cases by police if they ask for their justice then they are not khalistani aur aatanki still you need to meet families who are suffering from torture of 1984 and what is reality of govt .

The host country is so poorly prepared for such high ranking country heads meeting !?

I wanted to share some concerns about the current situation faced by international students in 2023. It appears that the financial burden on students has reached a point where it resembles modern slavery.\n\nStudents are required to pay a substantial $12,000 for the GIC upfront, followed by semester fees ranging from $9,000 to $10,000, with a total cost of $40,000 for their education. When you factor in taxes and rent, the financial pressure becomes even more overwhelming.\n\nWhat's even more troubling is that a significant portion of these students, up to 80 out of 100, are compelled to take on labor jobs to meet the requirements for Permanent Residency. This situation raises serious concerns about the quality of education and the well-being of these students.\n\nIt's crucial that we address these issues and work towards fairer immigration policies and more affordable education to ensure that international students are not subjected to such challenging conditions. Their contributions to our society should be valued, and their rights protected.\n❤❤❤ \n\nstudents in Canada ?

Sir i want to meet you..this is my wish...hope i will meet?

Like we discussed yesterday Nitish ji , on point and crisp content.\nMore power to you :)\n\nIt was great meeting you yesterday at fortis?

Hello Joyce, \nI’m just getting aware of this and wouldn’t be able to meet up with the General IELTS though I have The Academic IELTS with a band 6.5.\nWhat’s do you advice? \n\nI have all the needed documents except the general IELTS.

Now that dont make no since, the needs to lock the borders down , i really dont see why we have to take care of those people, if there country there president is not doing the right thing towards them they can do like we do vote him out ,and vote someone in that will meet there needs , i know this the us needs to put a stop to it ,and i bet the cartel is sitting back and loving it, they got the nerve to bum rush the border Wow that crazy

I’ve seen people in the US who work and struggle to make ends meet who look worse and far more unhealthy than these people. They all have cell phones and their clothes certainly don’t look like they’re from a donation center. They don’t even look homeless. They must want all the benefits they’ll receive once they cross the border.

Is it compulsory to have an Express entry profile to attend this virtual meeting

As many people has said in the comments section. Foreign countries are not easy especially for new immigrants. One has to have the right documentation to be able to live and work. People definitely has to do their research before paying those agents thousands of dollars and empty promises about Canada. Jobs are there but you have to be skilled, otherwise one will end up in factory Jobs where they pay minimum wages making it extremely difficult to make ends meet.

Thank you Lynn for disclosing this to our fellow people. They think is just easy to live in a foreign country. .. Its not easy at all.\nYou can survive in your country without much cash your pocket. But here you have to do doubles to enable you meet your day live, paying bills and taxes is not at a joke…\nImagine without good heath to work doubles, it’s hard Lynn not funny at all..

Hi Lynn, this is a very interesting conversation. I moved to Canada in 2003 went to college and became a nurse. First of all it was not easy paying for college I was lucky that husband was supporting with the bills as I went to school. So I would say that I have skills that are very marketable. Our combined family income was over $100,000 CAN. We mortgaged our first home which was very basic for a LOT of money. We had our kids and we had to struggle with childcare as most young families do. By North American standard, we were doing good. We each had a good car ( loaned), we made trips to Kenya every so often but in 2016 we decided we wanted to move back home and we sold our home and we did. I HAVE NO REGRETS. There were several things that made us reach our decision. First, I truly believe that for the Canadian system to work as it does, it has to entrap its residents. Even after 10 years of work we did not have money in the bank. Everything we owned really belonged to the bank. The light bulb moment for me came when I evaluated my net worth. A primary school teacher in Kenya after 10 years of work with good financial management will own a plot, a simple house and will start to invest for retirement. After 10 years of work, there wasn't much in the account, our house would need 25 years to finish paying mortgage and to be honest there wasn't much to show for those years of work. Quality of life really sucks the amount of stress will definitely send you to the grave sooner. This is the case for most first generation immigrants. You might say you are sacrificing and building a future for your children but, my observation was since our diaspora children have not grown in Kenya to see the need for money and what life really looks like without the comforts they are used to, they do not have the same drive as the parents so they often do not excel they are just ordinary. There is also the struggle of growing up as a minority group. A lot of our children because they are seeking acceptance will struggle with self esteem, will have depression or will join the LGBTQ community where they get sense of belonging regardless of their colour. The morals are also different from their parents and they are shaped by the society they grow up in. When I looked at what my life would look like if we kept living there, lets say we eventually pay off our mortgage, when we are old and requiring care, our children will not be able to support themselves and support us because they have to work to sustain themselves so we would to move to assisted living or nursing homes. The cost of senior care is not covered by the government unless you have no money. so we have to sell out home which would be old and outdated but still very expensive and we would have to pay $5000-$10000 per month depending on the type of care we need. so as you can see if we ended in a nursing home for 5 years we will have depleted all the money we made from the sale of our home. So by the time we die, we would not have money to leave for our children. So we worked really hard, supported the economy, and die leaving not much at all for our children, we sacrificed our quality of life, and ended up with children who don't think much of themselves or have very distorted morals. I still remember in my mind as we drove to the airport on our way back to Kenya, I thought of the story of Lot. He was pretty successful in Sodom but I'm very sure on his death bed he had lots of regrets why he ever went there. I know its tough being in Kenya but if you have a job or any way to make ends meet, be like Abraham. God will bless you regardless of whether you are in the dessert.

I have lived in Canada since 2000. My dream is to go back to Kenya and live there. We lived in Toronto for ten years and it wasn't easy for our parents to make ends meet. I moved to Alberta in 2011 and I am so happy that I moved here when I did. We live well. My husband and I are into trades and we thank God for taking good care of our family. It is getting harder here since Trudeau became the prime minister. Food, gas, clothes. housing everything has gone up and you need a good job and have legit papers. The grass isn't always greener on the other side

Hi Lynn. First of, I would like to say that I'm such a huge fan of yours. Since you started at Tuko and still following to date. You are an inspiration to me and so many people out there. I love and respect what you stand for and your work. I completely resonate with everything you are about. Second, I've lived in Canada for over 30 years now. I am Eritrean and was born in Kenya. Moved to Canada when I was about 9 and have lived here since with my family. I have to say that for us, Canada has been a God Send. It has helped us in so many ways, and we are so grateful for the opportunities and life it has given my family. From health care to schooling and job opportunities. We also cane here in 1989. So times and cost of living was very different than it is now. Of course, times have changed now, and the economy and standard of living have too. There are pros and cons to everywhere we live in the world. Everyone is different and has different experiences. There are various factors that may affect everyone's perspectives and experiences when they come to Canada, whether it was a long time ago or recently. Some factors could be, weather, economy, feeling lonely ( no family), language barriers, support...etc. Change is not easy at all and can affect t your whole emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. Social life here is also not like it us back home...just alot of factors. People here work and work to make it. My mom brought us here as a single widowed mom. My sister and I were very young. But she was determined to give us a better life and worked her whole life, and it has paid off. It depends on how you look at everything and what your goal is. My mother was determined and made it happen and has raised us on her own very successfully. She loves Canada and appreciates it for everything it has done for us. Everyone's experiences are different. You have to do your research before coming and come with an open mind. Overall... Canada for us has been a blessing. \n\nI hope that helps somehow. But again, everyone's perspective and experiences are just as valid and rightfully so. \n\nI hope to meet you someday. Love you, Lynn, From Canada ?? ❤️

The government should get involved in the rental boards. \nAnd freeze rent control and lower the rent prices. Its next to impossible to make ends meet in Canada now. Between Rent and Groceries and other expenses which adds on we can't make it and that makes alot of bad things happening. The Government has to get involve before things gets worse!!!

I drive a car in SA and own a house fully paid. I'm afraid of moving and loose it all. Yes I'm struggling to make ends meet

Lynn some of these people say it is a trap but if you ask them why they are still in Canada, they won't tell you. He left Canada and was back after 7 years. Why not buy the properties in his country. Why go back to Canada to buy those properties? For some reason I feel bad that those who have gone have found a way of discouraging those who aspire to be there yet themselves don't want to leave. I am yet to meet a Kenyan in the streets of Kenya who will tell me that he/she came back because Canada, US, or Canada is a trap. They all say that in the streets of Canada. And those who come back, benefit a lot from the knowledge and money they made while in Canada,US, Australia, or UK. I think it's too much now.

When I moved to Montreal in 2006 from Ontario, a lot of people were coming here for school, then moving to Toronto for higher paying jobs. Now, the economy here is doing very well and the cost of living is about half of what Toronto costs. I meet people every day who are leaving Toronto, Vancouver and Ottawa for Montreal. Costs have gone up here too but not nearly to the same extent.

Meet G7 nation criteria... number of educated immigrant\n\nHypocrisy lie... to international student rake in $8 billion a\n\n tim Horton job .... gas station waiter and truck driver job..\n\nSept 30th why celebration? Because the white killed innocent native Indians kids.... shame \n\n\nA modern day legal slavery ? shame

God bless the day i came across your channel sir. I was really losing hope but i am motivated to start my journey to migrate to canada cause your channel is a textbook guide for me to use. Please keep up the good work & God bless you & hope i will meet you & your lovely family one day. Man of wisdom!

One day we will meet in canada by allah wills

US is far better for individuals who wants to grow and work on themselves. I lived in US for 2 years and I got the best education learned a lot and met one of the most ambitious people. I always was motivated to do more. US boosted my education and career. Unfortunately I couldn’t stay there due to immigration issues. I moved to Canada and I am here for almost 5 years now and I am still struggling just to make ends meet. Every day I am looking for ways to get out of here back to US or elsewhere. Legalization of drugs, prohibitably expensive housing, poor access to health care, lack of availability of well paying jobs, massive intake of immigrants, overtaxation and fewer businesses opportunities. Canada was great place to live back in 1990s and early 2000s. Everything is going downhill after 2018. Immediately they need to fix immigration, taxation, healthcare, housing, drugs, and support small businesses.Else, Canada will continue to be the place of broken dreams.

Canada is new hub for terrorists..Soon it will meet the fate of Pakistan?

The n xst time they do that millions of Americans need to meet them half way and say your not welcome here go fix you own country

I really don't understand why the federal and provincial governments don't really plan immigration better. There is a lot of potential in the smaller cities of Canada and the smaller provinces that need to grow. Why is there a push to expand the bigger cities like Vancouver and Toronto, where services are not meeting the need? Besides, why is it that there is now vetting around immigration the way it used to be? It is both the federal and provincial governments' duty to ensure the availability of housing, health care (including mental health), good jobs BEFORE new immigrants are brought in?

So this man wants to parade around all day, and chat with his clients. No sir. In Canada we WORK and must meet deadlines. Every dollar must be earned. Welcome to a responsible, developed nation ! Civilization is oppression to someone coming straight from Nigeria, we know
