you're telling me there's no shortage of health care workers? 5 million canadians retiring in next 10 yrs.\n\nin short time it's negative, it takes time for new comers to settle and move into more productive jobs, would you be able to survive in longer run on min wage job?

It happened in Alberta shelters as well. Never thought I would see one. I then took to a construction bin with wheels survived two Canadian winters Trudeau must go

Alberta, we have a mass homeless population that increased. I just recently got off the streets myself and I survived two winters in a construction bin

Pretty clear the liberal goal is to push the entire middle class into poverty and those in poverty wont survive the drug epidemic

I moved to Canada over a decade ago, when I moved it was easy to find a job, and you could afford a decent life even with minimum wage.\n\nFast forward to today, I am already a canadian citizen, and me and my wife both make 6 figures, yet I lost my job for the first time in my life 5 months ago, and I only found a new job now because a friend helped.\n\nIt show me that if for some reason at some point me and my wife lose our jobs we won’t be able to survive in Canada for long even tho we already own a house.\n\nThis country is awful right now, I am honestly considering moving out of here because things just started to get nasty it’s going to get worse.\n\nIf I sell my house now and everything I own, I can live a comfortable life back in my home country, and honestly I prefer to do that.\n\nFor anyone reading this, please, for your own good, do your research.\n\nAll Canada gave me in the last decade is bad mental health, if I never left my country I would have good life there now

Housing crisis, drug epidemic, crime wave, low income sky high taxes- welcome to Canada. Rent and food is extremely expensive. People are barely surviving.

Great perspective! I survive by renting my condo. But even this can be a struggle when you can't find the right tenants. And rising taxes, poor Mayoral leadership, increased random unprovoked crime, the influx of asylum seekers , tent cities. I plan on selling my condo and returning to the caribbean and invest in real estate properties where I gran grow my wealth faster without being taxed to death.

I have small business in vaughan \nEconomy socks \nTaxes fu**s up people to a level they don't spent \nInflation become so bad no one come to spend money anymore \nNo tourists comes to Canada only immigrants and poor ones \nThey tax business even to 40% of income wtf..\nLicense and legal requirements for a business makes any business don't want to open here \nI'm on tourist trip now while writing this comment \nI have been in saudi and Pakistan and romania , people spend more money in tourism countries so this makes small business survive during Inflation \nAnd so on...

This lady is forgetting that the families have been on the land longer than Israel is even a thought or a seed. These families have survived 4 major crusades and Israel’s crusade is tiny compared to the others. Call us in 4,000 years and tell me who is living and thriving on that land.

Mass immigration for sure destroying Canada, so is the outdated, poor school system, health care, dummy politicians and leaders. I sometimes wonder if Canadians really has modern skills left to survive in this 21st century to call themselves as developed country.

I left Canada. Me and my wife moved to Turkey to survive retirement. I worked hard all my life but because I didnt have a unionized government job I have no pension, I have small savings but not enough, I bought my first home (condo) in 2022, three months before the interest rate hikes. My mortgage was variable so I lost my home.This is Canada: lucky privileged group getting more and more rich, the rest of us will struggle all our lives

No wonder crime rates are going up. How else will they survive without a job?

It's become a nightmare here not just for young people but everyone looking for work. These huge line-ups are not even new. For those who remember when Target opened stores here in Ontario and the massive line-ups for those minimum wage part-time jobs! It was insane. This has been going on for over a decade now. But it's even worse than people realize. They neglect to mention that female students at places like U of T turn to prostitution to survive. Not just a few, a significant percentage! There are entire websites devoted to students looking to prostitute themselves to pay rent and tuition! Wake up people! If government wants to get rich off of people, get our pay higher, don't just shovel more into the fire.

if you do not take care of your health, things may not get better or when things get better you may not have the health to enjoy the better things. I read of the Care worker who collapsed in the UK and eventually passed on.I am not a follower or subsrciber, just stumbled upon your video, please and please take care of your health. You need the health first before anything else. my 2 cents. Canada already announced 3 year PGWP for all masters program regardless of the course duration so you can rest a bit and focus on your main studies and your survival job for now. It's not a do or die!!!

We have a job shortage, not a labour shortage. In addition to the international students, the liberals created many special immigration pathways, one of which issues to almost everyone in Hong Kong a 3year work permit followed by a PR giveaway. These Hong Kong people are highly educated and skilled, but some of them I met said it is very difficult to find a job in Canada now. They have to accept a junior position with 6 years of experience or even work a survival job. The reasons that keep them here are cheaper house price and can stay away from China and they are gladly being lowballed. Helping people is a good thing but I feel that our young people are being sold, I've heard from many of them who cannot find a job recently.

this is part of the Big plan of one world order; to destroy, break and perhaps make an uprising or allow organized crime to take over; what do you think they the newcomers will do to survive? not enough jobs, can't afford rent, it will result in a backlash and crimes against Canadians. Kind what's happening to our US neighbours. When its all broken, its so much easier to take over and control.

I've been living in Canada since 1985, a Canadian citizen and just recently been unemployed since mid January due to interest rates. Builders aren't in a hurry to build therefore the workforce in that industry slowed down significantly. And so I've been applying everywhere and with my experience since the age of 16, i still cant get people to hire me. I thought there's a labour shortage? Or is it because employers rather pay new migrants minimum wage than to pay me a Citizen of Canada more? Idk how any1, new migrants or not survive in this world off anything less than $20 an hr

These students were always supposed to come with enough money to survive. Years ago it was $10,000 & it needs to be increased to at least $20,000 or no entry! Businesses won’t hire Canadians it seems because of the government money they get to hire immigrants. I read constantly about people saying they’ve applied to upwards of 30 jobs and not one reply. This is why.

It has nothing to do with jobs. It is to break the economy. Look what is going on with the food. Canadians are over taxed & broke. Only the new people are getting money from the government. What happens when the dollar collapses. No money, no food. And a war.Looks like all planned. WEF & UN. When the lights go out you will see what is going to happen. LOL. All you fools. Don't worry about this . Prepare to survive the SHTF. Or is it the actual RESET. People will burn it all down for a cup of rice. And you will rest in peace. All by design. Why all the bunkers and stock selling.etc

Well, you have to think and thanks give thanks to Labbe bro voters in the lab liberal government for dismiss that we have here. These people come in here to get our jobs are kids jobs they can't buy homes very survive in our government supplies Devon with our tax money wellto the liberal

You don't pay taxes as a full-time student, of course you can live off minimum wage, try paying taxes. You will find you need two part-time jobs to survive.

Not gonna lie. But Canadian teenagers feel entitled . They don’t want to work which is a shame. That might be a problem with the parents. But a good portion of 20-35 year old living with there parents are white Canadians. Let me be clear before you all slam me. But it is fucking true. Look at the line ups and tell me how many Canadians do you see. None. The problem is they want a job to pay them big money right off the start. We all started somewhere. I worked for 5.35 an hour that was only 20 years ago. That was minimum wage. Ridiculous right!!! But it actually hasn’t moved up much sense then. Saskatchewan is still the lowest minimum wage in all of Canada ( thanks Scott Moe?). I get it. Even right now with the Trudeau government you really can’t make enough money to survive but you have to try.

The real problem is the birth rate. Labour shortage exists because nobody can survive on the wages offered, as everything goes up.\n\nTrudeau’s plan is to merely replace the death rate. Almost exactly to the number.\n\nThe motivation is to respond to people not making babies for the last 25 years.

True must go ASAP before it destroys Canada for good. We have the skilled trades here in Canada born Canadians. Need to be happy and promote workforce. We don’t need immigrants from another part of the country. They don’t know our country they’re just here to survive. feel sorry for them, butlet alone they will cause many problems in Canada. We have the manpower here in Canada. The government needs to promote it not bring immigrants here then they have no work.

Canada it's enough, the people and the poverty. The country itself, donations and church. Technology is the help. Waterworks, sewage treatment plant, energy, automatic work, even private. Be it with solar, magnetic field or hydrogen, motor or encoder. I really want to finally help our people in this world. Small country houses built and properly expanded do not have soup and at night they have to fight for survival on the streets again. The technology makes follow-up costs unnecessary but creates the opportunity to help in the long term. People also have dreams, even the poor ones. You just have to give everyone a fair chance in this whole commercial system. Help those who need it, they are from your own people or do you want to be just as hypocrites as the laws and systems themselves Humanity. Even technology and you can grow food yourself, also learn for others and continue to help others. Small gardens and notice that they are really being helped, new courage means hope and continue to help others, get involved in systems and pass on good knowledge. Whether drones or small robots, free energy and power. Don't help here and there. It is your own people that you are making to suffer and are making excuses and hypocrites of Jesus? Finally, really help yourself and, above all, yourself and the systems and keep your eyes open - all the technology you need is there and it's not expensive anymore. The excess production destroys the market but creates these unlimited possibilities to help poor people in systems. Really the belief in humanity of Jesus and to create paradise.\nInterceptor m arcel,m agnet❤?❤

@ramyadelhanna\n Im in the U.K. came here when i was 19yrs, been here 30yrs now and just like you, Exiting th UK next year, doing my Last Job then one way ticket back to Kenya, \n\nNo more 1st World, Just Poverty and Money Printing and War's , No Future in the West, Greed has Consumed the Entire Civilization, Off to buy Land and get busy Farming and Animal Husbndry, Feel Sorry for the World, Future looks Turbulent, Titanic's are all Beached starting to List towards their Grim Fate. All my fellow Immigrants who i knew have Bailed out one by one, Don't want to be the one to Switch off the Lights as only 2 genuine friends left and they r also wrestlingwith the Gim Reality that its time to Go home if you care abot your Survival.

only the strong survive in Canada

Who can survive the high cost of living in Canada at age 65 or more are truly gifted and smart people..I'm not smart enough so I am now living somewhere else and I'm happy.

I am in Canada for 17 years and I love this country. It literally saved my life. Although I have to admit that it is a matter of surviving nowadays. My husband is a senior piping designer and he can't find a job for more than a year and was on and off the job for last 6 years. I am an internationally trained doctor and I can't find anything for myself. I can't afford pursuing my profession as it's too expensive and takes years with no certainty thag you will even get into industry. So I'm looking for all other jobs. But I'm either overqualified or don't have Canadian experience. So we have money just for a few months to survive... With 2 kids it's even more stressful... We barely can afford our rent... And we can't go back home as we left it so many years ago, no connections for job there too. So we really just pray everyday...

Strict, hard rules which are very much frustrating and annoying for an immigrant to survive in a country like Australia

Canada is just a big bubble that has started to crack. How can a welfare economy survive forever by doling out millions without value creation? Therein lies the core issue. There is NO INNOVATION in Canada. Why will investors pump money into Canada when there is no value creation happening? What has Canada created or innovated in last 30 years that has had any impact on the world; and on top of that they are giving billions in aid to foreign countries... Where is this money coming from? Taxes? It is difficult to survive in Canada now and will be impossible in a few years

Inflationen and rise in cost of living is all over the world not in Canada only ?. But we have to sort out and survive. New World order doesn't want people do much savings ?

The question is When….when???? \n\nWhen will you/the arab world work towards speaking for the right of the Palestinians???? \nEven if its to let them own their land, you still wanna stay quiet as if its none of your business while your brethren are dying and being killed.\n\nWhen will you aid them???? There r millions of refugees who r and hv tried to flee to other parts of the world to survive so why use this as an excuse to not take any refugees????

WAIT, DID HE SAY HE HAD TO WORK 40 TO 50 HOURS A WEEK JUST TO SURVIVE? lol LOL LOL

I'm a Canadian citizen and am planning on leaving. Fell like I'm working like a slave to survive everyday.

CANADA IS A SCAM COUNTRY. Lucky are those who survive.

It's a cold territory. No one can survive the coldness.

My parents left Canada with me as a child. In 2014 I moved back to Vancouver. I bought 3 houses in Alberta where homes are cheaper. It was a struggle to survive in Canada. In Alberta the government fines you for not having shoveled the snow on your sidewalk in -40 weather when no one is walking around anyway. The people who rented my houses were all using drugs and a nightmare and protected by laws. The rents in Vancouver are astronomical and shopping very expensive. I sold it all and left in 2021 and now travel the world and make YouTube videos and living the dream and saving a ton of money.

but pilipinos from philippines are doing well in canada//most pilipino immigrants are professional //nurses.most they get a good salary.home //,pilipinos can survive in winter season//no plan to go back home// canada is my 2nd home //more pilipinos are moving to canada//if they want to leave pilipinos will fill the gap//we are happy about this report//soon pilipinos are going to canada

Did he say he had to work 40-50 hrs a week to survive?? \n\nYoud be disappointed in America then ?

Im happy to hear people are leaving canada. This country wasnt suppose to house the world. Sorry to hear if you cant survive here but its really not our problem. Locals have a rough time as it is with no other option but to stay. I prefer to stay. I like living in canada even though i travel aboard for a 1/3 of the year

I was born and raised here. I am doing my exit plan as I cannot afford to live here as young-adult living on my own. The government knew exactly what they were doing when they allowed 9 million people to come here in a short amount of time. How can you provide billions for foreign aid but can't provide basic necessities to your own citizens? I have cut EVERYTHING extra out of my life and even while working a full-time job I cannot survive in my own country. Canada is a country for the elite, cliche style immigrants, and for the ultra wealthy who pass down intergeneration wealth. A failed health care system that provides little to no services at which you pay out of pocket to get access with private health care providers. You can't depend on transit as it is the mercy of the corrupt transportation/commissioners aka unions and the cost of gas is out of this world. I AM SO LUCKY I went to university and graduated when I did because the same degree would have cost 15k-20k more...food is super expensive...renting an apartment is seen as a form of luxury....you have to know someone to get basic things done. What a shameful society...a society that treats immigrants with upmost respect only to turn around looking the other way when it comes to homelessness...the housing crises...lack of employment oppts, gosh I can go on. My brother was lucky enough to move to Dubai and cash in on his savings by investing it into his properties where he pays 0 tax on his salary from his job.

Too much rent! No houses! This country is too expensive to survive now!

As soon as population increased the system collapsed. Its very difficult for canadian economy to survive in this type of corporate based economy where small business and services are not encouraged.

The USA in in worst situation , u have to work 80 hours a week to survive, all tbe dreams r gone, worst quality of life in the planet worst than a African countries , they r poor but they r not slaves from tbe government.

The worst country to immigrate \nTerrible \nEverything so expensive \nWork like a dog in order to survive \nI’m from Canada

Canada is totally messed up......if you wish to become a Canadian citizen please think twice. \nCanada has been suffering from high inflation, housing issues, high interest rates, high crime rates and high cost of living overall. You can't make enough money to survive forget about saving.....\nDo yourself a favor and don't come to canada....

The thing that really pisses me off is that these illegal entries also gum up and slow down the process for legit asylum seekers and legit immigration petitioners who do obey the law. I saw a news report at the San Ysidro crossing where they interviewed a mother of three young children who had a legitimate asylum reason (which still has to be determined in court) who had been trying for over two years to enter legally. The system just didn’t have capacity because of the illegal crossings in the region taking up all of USCIS resources. This woman had no resources and was sleeping on the streets in Tijuana (not safe) trying to survive and care for her kids and she had the resolve to continue to doing things legally. \n\nPeople bitch about America being unsympathetic — what about people like this woman? You gonna say she should give up obeying the law and try to jump the border? What if you came home from work and found a homeless woman and her three kids eating out of your fridge? \n\nWalls don’t keep people out. They have doors. Go to the door and ask to be let in. \n\nIf the illegal crossings stopped, and America refused to answer the door? Then maybe you got an argument for harsh treatment.

Every economy gets stronger with job creation. The problem in Canada is that taxes kept on increasing, the housing wasn’t developed adequately that skyrocketed the rents but the job market is just shrinking. Most immigrants from India are from Punjab who look for blue collar jobs but with high inflation they are not able to survive or save anything. So they don’t find it lucrative anymore. The new students should do their due diligence before coming otherwise they are going to struggle!
