Yo im still glad that even tho my country is still a developing country i can still own a home with only 40K USD and if i convert it to peso its nearly 3M pesos, still affordable even though we have an inflation rate of 3.58 percent, i mean 3.58 percent still aint a joke the inflation in my country is still rapidly rising.

Indian Punjabi here(Never interested in moving to Canada). I'm glad I didn't choose it. I love nature with predominant winter climate but God damn! 2 Million for that shitty house? I would rather buy a mountain in J&K with half the price

Glad I wasn't there, would be in jail right now

Glad you're not trying to change Canada and make us kowtow to your culture.

As a Turkish living in Alberta temporarily it’s not my business talking about economy, housing crisis or drug addiction since I am only here for a year. But I must say someting about the hospitaly and friendship. As an introvert I can’t believe that I have so many good friends here. Canadians are really talkative, generous and friendly. And I am glad I am going back home with so many good memories that made me feel like home.

Twenty years ago I left Canada and boy am I glad I did so. The country has turned into a disaster unless you're rich. The obsene house and rental prices are obviously the result of gross mismanagement. I mean, the government employs economists who should be able to advise that too many buyers and too few houses is going to lead to major trouble. A rich country with so much land should not have this problem. When it comes to gas prices, Canadians have to drive some of the longest distances in the world and are forced to pay such high gas prices. Since there is almost no public transportation, what choice to people have but drive. Regarding the grocery situation, allowing a handful of massive companies hold Canadians ransom is complete bullshit. This is where the government needs to do something to rein in this behavior. Obviously people need to eat but allowing these companies to rake in obsene profits because of this basic need is a crime. I hate the idea of a PC government, but the Liberals have definitely failed.

Thats the way forward, am glad one by one are waking up to the reality

Glad I left Australia in 1991 and moved down under. At least when you are homeless here the weather is warm enough all year round and you can sleep on the beach.

Glad to see somebody seeing Muslims as they are.

Glad you are leaving, we don't any Muslims in Canada

Glad to know the kids who lost their lives will come back when he is deported. ??

The immigration problem is very real and im glad you brought it up. I'm tired of being called a bigot for simply recognizing that the we dont have enough homes to sustain our citizens, let alone new migrants. I think we need to severely cut down immigration until we can build the required infrastructure to support them.\n\nWhat the trudeau government has done to this country has made me utterly hopeless. I see no future for myself here and yet I also have no idea how to leave this nightmare of a country.

No!\nI’m an immigrant fled from war 30 something years ago \nnow the immigration turned into invading the Indias are hogs jobs you hardly see anyone else working taking our young generations jobs it is not fair while Canadians are suffering jobs and homelessness mental illness Canada needs to send them back home it not Canada’s responsibility to accommodate over population of India they need to go back I’m glad someone is speaking up \nBless you

Great video, glad to see you standing up!

Glad he's not my husband! lol

Canada has Just become ??? Thank god i rejected to move to Canada from India. I'm so glad about my decision.

i came up to north bay around 2007 and i’m glad i got to see canada back in those days

So glad I live in Europe!

I'm indian when i was planning to move abroad 2 years ago a lot of agents in india was forcing me to move to canada directly on PR. They said i just have to pay 150k Indian rupees ( around $1900 USD). Found out later canadian government have tie ups with these agents in india and are attracting young indians to move to canada under 6 months on PR by selling huge Canadian dreams filled luxury houses, cars and all that nonsense. Believe me canada is the easiest country to move from India and the cheapest one too. I'm glad i rejected to move to canada everytime they pitch me those ideas. So please do not hate indians. Even they're being duped by these agents and canadian government.

I'll gladly wait 20 minutes for coffee if it's made by a Canadian citizen!

I'm glad that you guys have outlined the Conservative's position as well - just because there is a palatable alternative to the Liberals right now, doesn't mean they don't have to be under searing scrutiny. The Conservatives need to be made aware that support for them is conditional on them actually dealing with this.

Ha! I just graduated from college. Literally 90% of my classmates were from India. Most of them couldn't care less about classes. Had 2 of my capstone project team mates hand in CGPT generated work the entire project. Most of the actual local students (This is a Calgary Community College, you can guess which one) were protesting the fact they get pushed to graduation handing in this crap which lessens the achievement of the people who actually came there to learn. Its a shame and Im glad to see them go!

I'd gladly make my own coffee and have my country back.

I would gladly move to Canada, if I didn't have to pay so much to emigrate! O pid gladly pay 200,000 US just to be a resident!

Just like here in Canada, a Canadian Politician by the name of Sarah Jama was asked to leave because she was wearing the Keffiyeh on her head. I’m glad she got kicked out. Religious clothing has no place inside ANY Government building in Canada.

Just be glad there is not a large Mexican population in Brampton. Mexican culture is the lifestyle in the southwest USA. They immigrate and make their new home look like the one they ran from in Mexico. Makes no sense. Indians are like Japanese…highly intelligent with great work ethic. Just look at tech companies in northern CA, numerous tech CEOs and workers are Indian. We will trade you!

Hello, i lived in Brampton for years and grew up mostly there. Mostly white people then, a few Punjabi's but not too many. Do not live in ?? Canada anymore. Glad i dont live there anymore. Never seen homeless rarely 20+ years ago.\nUnited States is probably worse now.

So glad to hear that...I am sorry but people of your faith should not be in civilized countries. Your values are not compatible with a modern society

This is not Islamophobia and racism. This is Resistance - we resist your attempts to convert Canada into the Islamic state. I am glad you are leaving.

Glad you are leaving!

Bro only talkin to the homeless people living near 7eleven downtown area. This is a meth zone bro. I have lived in Brampton for 4 years and I am glad I left for good. Don’t wanna come back again in Canada.

I completely understand your rationale. It makes a lot of sense. I am glad for your decision. \n\nI'm curious: Will you renounce your Canadian citizenship and pledge never to return?

Increasing demand without increasing supply allows the landlord class to jack up prices. Don't dismiss them from the equation. It's a conscious decision to raise rent prices to make more money. And it's motivated by selfishness. Scapegoating immigrants and pretending they're the problem rather than the landlords is terrible. I'm glad you went on to talk about the need for further housing construction, but omitting the greedy landlords from the discussion seems like you're dropping the ball on something.

I wanted to be an ex-pay in Canada a few years ago. Glad I never went

Glad they stay in Toronto

What about Taxes? Capital gains, sales, incopme etc. and access to health and transit. So glad I left.

I'm glad you discussed this because we don't normally hear it it on major news outlets however I've been getting a lot of infos from quite a number of canadians who are unsatisfied with the direction the country is headed.

Glad to see you leave. As a child of muslim refugee parents, I was born in Canada and love this country and what it has done for my parents and myself. I would not have the high quality of life that I do now if I were in my parent's home country, which to this day is still at war. I hope more muslims like you who live in western countries leave instead of complaining and trying to make it more Islamic. Canada is not an Islamic country, it is a country for all so there will be things the government or non-muslims do that don't align with Islam. That's the price you pay for living in a peaceful country.

I'm glad for his behavior. Israeli Jews and all their supporters have outed themselves. Everything we've said they were over the decades is now showing to be true and they're showing it to the world themselves. We don't have to do a thing.

A prime example of a cultured, enlightened Westerner… can’t even speak his own language correctly, let alone give accurate instructions as to geographic location of where he’s telling these women to go.. “Go back to Muslim…. umm (thinks to himself, it doesn’t sound right, is it a country? oh right it’s a religion, adds after a long tortured pause) … country…” Glad he got nicked for that

Glad i migrated to Adelaide South Australia ??

Most of what was reported here is true but the housing market and rents have skyrocketed all over the world since the Chinese government F'd everyone with Covid-19. At first there were supply chain issues with all goods so businesses said we have to increase prices. Once supply issues were back to pre-Covid-19 levels businesses did not & will not lower their prices on goods because , we as a society do not take matters into our own hands and boycott products\\company's etc. Now obviously we cannot boycott all goods & services but the majority we could and that is the only thing that would cause action among companies to lower bank fees, fast food prices, grocery prices, cell plan costs etc.\n\nWith that said, you picked two of the highest and most sought after city's in CAN to rent & or try to buy a home. Although rent & home prices have really jumped all over the world in the past 3-4 years, more affordable (still not cheap) housing, compared to Toronto, Vancouver, can be found all across CAN. My sister & brother in law found an apartment to rent in Winnipeg without any difficulty or waiting. \nThey are immigrants and entered on her student Visa & he is a computer programmer. They are not struggling to eat but they have to follow a tight budget since she cannot work but 20 hours a week as a student and they have 1 kid, a car payment,utilities, cell plan, etc. They have filed for their PR and I suspect they will be approved since his job is in demand and she will graduate from College there in 4 months or so.\n\nOne thing I noticed, when my wife & I went up to get them settled in, is that the government (national & local) taxes you all pay out of the wazzoo on everything! I think the only thing that wasn't taxed was air. ? I know most of this is due to the healthcare system, because the money has to come from somewhere. Don't misunderstand, I like the CAN healthcare system better than the US's, because the insurance companies stick it to us as well, but both have their pluses and minuses.\n\nCAN does have a much easier system for immigration. If my sister & bro in law could have come here we would have been glad for them to stay with us and help them get started but the backlog is just so long to wait (10 + years). I also LOVE CAN because you uphold your laws and DEPORT illegal immigrants instead of letting them pour into the Country, by the millions each year, and the majority eventually trickle into the population illegally, who get jobs & pay no taxes (other than sales tax) no driver's licenses or vehicle insurance and get 100% free medical and hospital care anytime while legal US citizen's pay high premiums, into social security and their income taxes each year.

Glad they didn't mention Saskatchewan.

Glad I left this clown show, Canada was so bad and depressing to live in

so glad there is honorable Sudi people who still care about pelastine and its people

Was so bad when I was and working on a project in Vancouver & travelling through BC and Alberta for 9 months. I could feel how Canadians are drowning. I feel so glad for being Australian after experiencing the life in Canada.

Back in the 90’s people were pushing to “vote for Clinton” - Husband and or wife because they wanted healthcare based on the “Canadian model”. Sorry to see Canada implode so quickly under Trudeau but I think what you’ll find south of the 49th parallel is that we move much slower towards our demise so people either won’t notice it or associate the criminal economic policy to the economic corpse. It’s called the Federal Reserve and the whole world has been subsidizing our orgy since 1913. That’s how slow this death spiral really is. Do what’s best for you. Be grateful for what little you have, enjoy your family, support them. The American dream is a nightmare. This is the day the Lord has made let us rejoice and be glad in it.

Is he ever going to realize that he did something wrong ? I'm not glad I came across this video ?

Hey, you got to do what's right for your family. Canada these days isn't exactly kind to those not towing the government line, and it's definitely not the free and tolerant society that it claims to be. I'm just glad I went back home before they went completely nuts over COVID.
