Canada is so woke it’s not funny the liberals have ruined Canada in 8 years

This country has become an unaffordable woke nightmare, I don’t blame anybody for leaving.

The fact that you have a woke two faced virtue signalling fascist lunatic in charge doesn't help..

I don’t begin to understand your issues around your religion, but I respect your decision … being an Alpha white man, and a Christian has become very very difficult in this society as well. sure, the economy is soft, the growth of Canada is limited, we have a socialistic government, and many more negatives around Canada. This is why I have chosen to live in Canada only 5 to 6 months a year. This is the maximum I can truly stand. the culture is so materialistic and so pro woke. It is a nasty environment to bring up a family now. Anyway, may God go with you and keep your family safe.

Toronto went woke, went broke.

I am not Muslim and Canada is becoming a totalitarian state. You are wise to leave if you can find a place that isn't mental. The woke culture is completely nuts and I don't want any part of it either. Such a massive turn off. I hope you can find a place to live where you will feel free and happy.

Thanks to woke policies of Trudeau government Canada is going downhill.

High costs of living, drug problems combined with no freedom of speak if you‘re not super woke. A sh**hole if you ask me.

It's the NWO woke culture with L G B T Q being shoved down your throat!\n\n1984 on steroids!

Canada, was in the past, one of the most positive progressive countries but now a Woke nightmare...and Woke is a form of fascism

hijab is like the gender reaffirmation being done by woke parents to the moldable minds of kids

Basically you're arguing against multiculturalism, just without realising it or at least not expressing it that way.\n\nAnd although im a traditional liberal left winger, I've come to agree actually, I would hate for Canada, which is a largely secular country built upon judeo Christian beliefs end up something else entirely just to appease one particular religious group.\n\nI lived in the middle east for almost 6 years and it was a fascinating experience as well as rewarding from a career and financial perspective.\n\nOf course I had to comply with local cultural norms, which I absolutely did as I'm a respectful person but had I not done so I would have been shown the door / the inside of a prison cell. If I started complaining that Islam was homophobic or arguing about the hijab that would not have gone well for me.\n\nI think in the West we need to start being much more explicit about our values - such as freedom of speech - and not lose them down to a woke fear of offending minority groups.

As a Christian I fully respect your motives to move. The Western left/superliberal LBTQAI+ multicultural society is a disaster. \nThe government should not force people to be woke. \nGood luck in your new country!

Toronto is an open insane asylum. Horrible people, woke beyond belief, congested, expensive, worst hockey team, no identity, full of condos with the worst waterfront I've even seen. No originality. People are pricks who get offended extremely easy. Not a fun city at all.

Woke ideology will surely drive Muslims and Christians from Canada

Actually probably the same reason people are leaving California, both Canada and California are run by complete woke idiots.

Trudeau destroyed Canada. The woke culture is destroying the world

Are you both Palestians? I think not. Therefore you are going to move your children to a non-democratic corrupt muslim country due to perceived crimes against a group of people who share your religion, but you have no contacts with. There are no effective democratic muslim majority countries. Should I make family decisions based on Christian ethnic cleansing in North Africa? Should I worry about the massacre of Coptic Christians in Egypt? Your children will regret your actions and will understand why your parents or grandparents moved to Canada in the first place. I do agree that Canada is a woke-dom, but this will change as traditional conservative values come back into fashion. Anyway good luck with your future plans.

Muslims and browns don't integrate. Get to the root cause and stop being woke

I am definitely with you on a lot of those reasons. Especially the craziness going on with the government. And the craziness with the woke agenda. I’m not a Muslim so having mosque calls five times a day would not be something I’d be down for. But I do appreciate that you are faithful to your God. And you wish to put your God first that is some thing that more of us should be doing for sure. With peace in mind, of course.

That is what you get when a societal decline, value erosion, empty virtue signalling, woke ideology, human greed, bad governance, unchecked immigration and, to top it all, a narcissistic and evil Prime Minister have been allowed to reign unchecked.\nAbsolutely no surprise there. And it will only get worse!

I left Canada in 2018, main reasons: high taxes and few opportunities, woke government and just really a boring cold country. No regrets at all .Much happier now

Accept these people and send all the woke students over.

1. Trudeau\n2. Trudeau\n3. Trudeau\n4. Woke\n5. Dictatorship

if you work hard, talented, rich, educated...don't come to canada or you will be poorer. canada is a country for woke, lazy, and full of non-canadians. if trudeau or liberal party is running the country....stay away!

My dad's best friend moved to Canada in the 90's when I was a kid...we had some amazing trips out there. I always considered it to be the best example of compassionate capitalism & democracy. Kinda like the best bits of Britain combined with the best bits of the US! FFS What a Marxist shitshow Trudeau & the pathologically woke have turned it into.

No free speech, woke madness, I´m out!

Turd has destroyed our once true north strong and free. Mass immigration has destroyed our identity. Our health care used to be great , taxes were reasonable, our justice system is woke broke. Now .

Toronto is doomed thanks to the woke Libtards and the NDP! Mind you the Conservatives did not helped the city either! When I moved to Toronto in 1966, there was no crime to speak of! You could leave your bike outside in front of any store nobody would steal it. Apartments were affordable, and even working on a min. wage job you could survive. After P.E. Trudeau was voted into the national government , everything started to go down in general, and this reflected in the city of Toronto too. In the past 20-25 years it is in a total downward spiral. TTC is now dangerous to use. The city government is anti-car, putting in stupid bike lanes everywhere, chocking traffic, cutting off parking, a four way stop signs on every corner of the streets, and the worst the Police do not enforce traffic violations. If I could afford it I would move from Toronto, but truly to where? Hamilton, Guelph, Kitchener, London, Windsor? Nah, not much cheaper... Perhaps another country? Sure Dubai, Switzerland sounds good if I would be a millionaire!

I’m Canadian born and raised and will be selling my house and leaving. I will not ever live under a WEF socialist control country as this idiot in Ottawa is turning Canada into. Add high taxes and woke culture has convinced me it’s time to leave. I don’t know why you left Singapore believing you were coming to a better country and chose, should have done your homework because you were tricked.

Singapore is the top country I want to move to from Canada, but you did it in reverse. \n\nThe wokeness, crime rates, homelessness, hate crimes, taxes and just the inflated prices of everything are the main reasons to get out of Canada. It doesn't matter what party is in control, this mess will not be clean up for a long long time (and I doubt any party wants to clean it up... more like make it worse). Canada also feels like it's not a democracy anymore. Just try to speak up against this wokeness and you'll get call whatever phobia. Just look at those one sided CBC articles.

The vast majority of issues you mentioned are created by leftwing governments. Our population was stupid enough to vote woke... Now we all go broke or leave.

Horrible woke country now........awful place with homeless multiplying

You have a woke leftist globalist government that says stupid shit like, 'the budget will balance itself', mass imports more people than it has jobs for or housing and then shuts down homegrown energy and has us depend on imported energy...what could possible go wrong???

I'm leaving Canada, it's too woke

You didn't mention the advent of gangs and violent crime, epidemic of street people and drugs, institutionalised wokeness, and authoritarian moves from the government (e.g., invoking martial law and freezing people's bank accounts).

They are right about the government and schools are pushing their woke agenda.

Thanks for wasting my time for another portion of woke bs

I don't mean any disprect but we the majority (the ones who are 3, 4 generations in) don't want an Islamic government in our country. That doesn't make me a hater but it's matter of preference. What makes you think this is something we would be willing to fanthum here? While I would agree with a lot of what your points are (LGBT, pedophiles , woke society, abortion etc..) there are some conflicts with your idealogy which doesn't exactly mesh into our Canadian values and culture. Our values and customs allowed most of us to grow up in a mainly Christian or even athiest environment. Everyone of any race or creed is welcome here as long as you are willing to work hard and be financially independent. In other words no freeloading off the government. People are expected to assimilate and get along with society. We opened our doors and welcomed you remember that...

The drug crisis is the worst, you will think Vancouver, one of the most expensive cities in the world, looks like a 3rd world country! Drug users are allowed to do them in ANY public space now. At your kids school even. The housing supply is way behind and they brought in millions more people so the housing crisis will always be there. The govt is woke and incompetent communists too. Do not go!

Canada is very expensive, very boring, and cold. Very woke liberal with racist policy too. Do not go.

Go woke go broke - same applies to countires :) hopefully it will be valuable lesson for USA

canada is a shithole. Nothing works, people are dull, everything is a rip off, no consumer rights only woke rights, nobody is a professional only wannabe's, health care is an insult and infrastructure is non existant. Once I am able to sell my house I am soooo out of here.

Frozen unaffordable woke communist shithole!

Born and raised in T.O. Toronto has always been a sh*t hole even back in the sixties and seventies growing up...what Alina has pointed out is the excelleration of this process with 'progressive', woke mayors and city council...

This video is bulllshit. Canada is a woke nightmare.

Go woke go broke....

They are escaping the woke liberal government of Trudeau & the destruction he has done...

The woke need to inform them that America is a horrible place!!

woke fascist censorship is making canada like north korea
