From Portugal, Canada we stand with you!

From Portugal : I wish so so much to have a prime minister like this. Congrats Canada. Stay strong

From Portugal much love my Canadians!!!!! I dont understand what has gone through Trumps mind!

Stand up Canada and face the beast.\n????? BRAVO CANADA\nGreetings from Portugal

From Portugal I stand with Canada. Trump has gone too far. Way too far and America is going to pay for this for decades. This is one of the darkest periods in US history and spineless Republicans are standing by and letting it happen

From Portugal Its make sense if is a Russian asset saving Mr. Putin from economic and war disgraces

Stay strong Canada ?? Europe ?? Portugal ?? stands with you

As an American that saw the writing on the wall 7 years ago and left, I thank you Mr. Trudeau. You, and Canada are very much respected, and the world listens. Hopefully, decent Americans will overthrow the tyrant that 50% of them voted him in. To say I am ashamed of the USA as it stands is AWAY underwhelming. Much respect from Portugal, and long live Canada.

Portugal here, we stand with Canada against the tangerine head & servant minions.

From Portugal EU ????, we stand with Canada

Trudeau for presidet of usa!!\nRespect and admiration from Portugal.

They walk among us, They sound just like us. They are ... Central Americans. \nThe fools - what the hell did they leave Canada for NYC? People in NYC are digging tunnels INTO Canada!\nUS middle income migration to Mexico, Costa Rica, Portugal, rural Italy, South East Asia increases. \nOopsy swapsy.

I left Canada last month, sold everything, Vancouver/North Vancouver...lived here for 20 years. Back to Germany where family is and moving to Portugal next within the few months. BC is just not affordable anymore, specially if you have kids. I love Canada, financially not doable tho, at least not for a single mom...tuition is a thing too... don't want to rent forever either...

Super power india look at your citizens ??? \n\nSo shameful for Indian if they have little bit of shame ???\n\nI saw more illegal Indian in Portugal as well . ???

Enough .\nIndians should learn to live in their country.\nAnd make a better place \nInstead to live miserable life styles in EU.\nSelling vegetables on metro stations and cleaning dishes in the restaurant \nAll illegal.\nThere us a huge ruse of Bangladeshis in frsnce and punjab crowd in Portugal. \nAll working in restaurant. \nTerrible life styles to ge in .\nSolitude\nDeprived \nAway from love ones.\nNON.\nSAY NON.TO AFENTS.

Please fact check your video. Atleast in EU shengen irregular immigration from Indian subcontinent is a social hot potato. Refer Portugal for example- theres an entire parliamentary debate this week on addressing the social havoc irregular subcontinental immigration has caused. The scenario can be true for most Mediterranean southern European countries. Ground reality is most of West is not dependent on India for skilled immigration. Infact most that comes through is low skilled labour. Skilled STE(A)M immigration is a not a high percentage. Until India changes this, the passport strength will not improve.

Host Sir Ji, why are you appearing to be putting down all those Wonderful hard ? ? ? ? ? ? working, civilized, cultured, peaceful, respectful, nice ? ? ?, law abiding, prosperous ? ❤️ ?, ambitious, helpful, nation builders, entrepreneurials, industrious and very educated Indian people ? ? ? ? ? ? . Indian people's existence have been assets in all countries in the World including U.S. Yes-India, England, Australia, Germany, Guyana, Russia, Canada, Singapore, Trinidad, Saudi Arabia, U.A.E, Qatar, Italy, Portugal Malaysia, Hong Kong, Mexico, South Africa, Fiji Island, Mauritius, etc for many centuries ! ! ! ! ! . What nonsense are talking about ? ? ? ? ? . Please ?????? stop ?????? it right now ! ! ! ! ! . You truly need to factor in Jealousy, lies, perhaps obvious racism, prejudiced, hate and enviousness against Indian population because all those wicked and evil people are all anti-Indians.\nTHANK YOU SIR Ji ???. May God bless You ???, all those good and blessed Innocent Indian people forever ???.

I'm seriously considering moving to Argentina, Spain, or Portugal.

Do you all hear yourselves….?? Some of the most racist comments I’ve heard…..!!\n\nThis is basically saying that because it is brown people moving into Canada ( Brampton, BC, TO) doesn’t matter, there’s a problem with immigrants. What would the comments be if Brampton had an influx of Britt’s, or Germans, or Portuguese….Etc….??\n\nSaying, “this is not the Canada I knew”…. Well, “Canada is a multicultural country” \nThis means that all cultures from every part of the world decide to enter Canada and make it their home. Just like my parents did in the 60’s from Portugal. Why is it okay to have people immigrate here in the 60’’s from Italy, Portugal, Greece Etc…. And people coming in now from countries that are of colour, there is a massive backlash…. Canada has one of the lowest populations. Why not have some hard working people live here and contribute to the economy from India, Afghanistan, Nigeria, Kenya, Lebanon, Iraq Etc….

I live in Ontario, stereotypically in my moms basement, my family is currently seriously considering moving back to Portugal because it’s become a total shit show over here, it’s a clown fucking world thanks to Trudeau, seriously fuck that guy.

Portugal. Best place to live.

Canada must repeat what it did in the 1930's and the 1940's. Canada needs to bring 5 million immigrants from Eastern Europe, like Poland, Portugal, Romania, Ukraine, Serbia, Bosnia, Lithuania, Estonia, Hungary, Macedonia etc. Just look at the Eastern Europeans in Canada, they and their Canadian born children and grandchildren have learned and speak the English language fluently. In Canada, people speak English and French. The British and the French values must be upheld. God save the King.

Wish you all the best. I hope you make the right choice. I am Argentinian and for business reasons my employer moved me around to US, México., Sweden, Italy and Germany. Now I retired in Portugal. Non of the countries I leaved in I would go back. The same as Canada thinks are changing continuously and not for good. Anyway thanks for sharing.

My parents brought me to Canada in 1957. My wife and I left Canada in 2023. No regrets, love it here in Portugal!

I agree with you. Canada is not like the place I used to know. Went to Edmonton recently....it was homeless people everywhere in downtown and Chinatown. My bet you are moving to Portugal.

Iceland and Australia feel like home. Hungary, Vietnam, Finland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Austria are wonderful places to live for a couple of years. Beautiful countries that are falling out are Sweden, Argentina, Thailand, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Canada, the US, and France.

Other commenters have pretty much said it all. But I have a theory that countries with a strong maritime tradition have a much more outward-looking attitude, and are keen to interact with other people, cultures and nations. Such countries are UK and other English-speaking nations, Netherlands, Nordic nations, Spain, Portugal, Greece, Egypt, the Gulf states, and much of South East Asia.\n\nCountries without this seafaring tradition are inward-looking, and regard outsiders with envy and as a threat, rather than as an opportunity. Germany is a quintessential example of such a nation.

I heard Portugal is beautiful, safe and quite amazing!

Even Europeans also started hating Indian's look at Portugal too everyday indian is being stabbed for racism

I'm hoping that you are planning on moving to a Country in Europe? My parents were Latvian WWII War Refugees and I've been hearing that IF they were, you can easily get a Passport to live anywhere in the European Union?\n\nAn American YTuber who now lives in Portugal, said this in one of his Videos. The process is taking much longer for him, as his parents were not WWII War Refugees.

Be brave our Kyïv sister !!! We left Ukraine 5 days before the war started in February 2022… we stayed in Portugal for 2 years and now we are in my family’s home in the USA preparing to return to Portugal ??!! We hope you are happy in your journey and are here to support you with love ! Slava Ukraina !??

Best wishes for your move from Canada. Canada is one of the most beautiful countries in the world. However, Canada is largely unaffordable. America is unaffordable. Many in the working and middle classes are leaving. The cost of a home in nice communities in America averages over 1M Dollars. Tiny, old, fixer-upper homes in America average around $500,000 or more. The average rent for a very small apartment is over $1,500. Rents for apartments in upscale neighborhoods average around $3,500-$7,500 a month. Increasing cost of living in America is a problem. Some working people making average pay are living in their vehicles. Others making well over $100,000/year are leaving because they will not overspend on housing. People are moving to Mexico, Panama, South America, France, Portugal, Spain, Eastern Europe, Greece, Asia, etc. for affordable cost of living.

As someone coming from Portugal, I find Germany to be a very good place to stay, but than again there is always going to be better places to go, I wish good fortune for everyone seeking their perfect place

Don't say Portugal :D

We are also leaving Canada later this fall, will explore a digital nomad life in Europe starting with Algarve Portugal, my husband and I recently obtained our Hungarian EU citizenship via descent and have dual citizenships/passports. We both recently were packaged out of our careers, don’t like the direction Canada is heading and decided why not try a different place to try to call home! Will watch your series closely! ❤

She is going to live in Portugal, good luck.

Portugal would be a great place to call your future home

My guess is Bali or Thailand for safety and affordability. Possibly Portugal or Argentina? Hmmm... it's Bali.

I'm retiring this month. Trudeau has literally destroyed the Canada that I loved and cherished and having lived in 5 provinces. Thinking of leaving also where quality of live, affordability, safety and access to health care is not an issue like Portugal for example. We are being taxed to death in Canada.

There is no life on Mars and in canada. Better to live off in thailand, south africa, montenegro, portugal or panama.

Portugal, Spain or Turkey?

Portugal?

There's always the vlogger visa in Portugal like NFKRS did. Convenient for EU travel. We can't all move to New Zealand.

Weather and social fabric are as important as salary when it comes to happiness.\nWhat about France, Italy or Portugal? I imagine they will be a better choice all things considered.

Portugal is very popular among digital nomads. It's a great place to live and work remotely.

most place in the European part of Southern Europe is a fairly safe bet for you to live in. some areas of Italy such as Naples have a high crime wave but there are also a lot of safer areas in Europe such as parts of Portugal, a lot of the Greek Islands and some quieter parts of Italy. parts of the South of France are also nice but perhaps expensive.

So, when are moving to Portugal??
