Okay so here's what you didn't talk about, what nobody ever talks about. \n\nYou only spoke about the capitals in each province which are the smallest fraction what what Canadian culture and economy are truly like. \n\nBurley Canadian culture, affordable homes, crazy landscapes, island paradises, the artic all hold a rarely told tale. \n\nEveryone complains about affordable housing where virtually everywhere in Canada is affordable. Excluding Vancouver and Toronto metropolitans. \n\nCulture is back and white from these 49th paralleled cities to anyplace else in Canada. \n\n- born, raised and traveled Canada.

Hi bro Indian students all come here for fake documents n they don't follow the instructions rule they make too much problem, enough is enough too much Indian in Toronto enough no right to apply resident n illegal back to there country.??????

Small affordable apartments, studios, 2 and 3 bedrooms need to be built in the major cities like Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal….not houses…because on the same land a house is built there could be a building …and take universities accountable for the students they take money from by having enough students rooms to shelter them because now they are in regular apartments in colocation…

My girlfriend has been living in canada illegal for the las 15 yrs. She was deported 10 yrs ago for working with someone else's S.I. N. after immigration was called. Immigration told my company that the only way she was able to stay at my company if they were able to pay her cash. 17 yrs later and she works for the same company for cash. Tax free. I go with her, and others to bodegas in Toronto where they cash all cheques in the back room at the end of the bodegas. No questions asked. The reason Immigration was called was because the S.I.N she was caught with had $10.000 thousand unpaid taxes over the years. And the person that let her use her card for $300 each month needed the card to go on welfare. No one had to pay the taxes. My company today is 90% illegal workers. All in hotels all over Toronto, Brampton, Mississauga you name it.

Are there no white people to interview in Toronto?

27% unempl,oyed in Toronto

Toronto relatives tell me rentals are rented by one person then illegally sublet by many more international students from India. Pack them in.

Only in canada would you find xenophobic immigrants. Also google Toronto's most wanted then ask yourself how diversity is a strength.

TLDR : Toronto is bad for a failed actress

Hejehe they need to do more fake farmer protest in india and want security forces there take tough action so that they can share such picture to get asylum and business of immigration offices grow in usa canada europe. I have gut feeling only 2 to 3 percent in total are genuine students. They just want to sneak into any countries.\nBoss if govt wants to safegurd locals they need to stop asylum refugee and study visa.\nGTA AND TORONTO AREA IS BADLY MESSED. HOUSING PRICE DAILY USAGE THINGS GONE WAY HIGH. \nRAISE YOUR VOICE AGAINST THESE PEOPLE.\nONE MORE THING ASK QUESTION TO GOVTS. ALSO WHY THEY ARE ALLOWING. JUST TO MAKE MONEY. WHY COUNTRY DOES NOT HAVE ANY PLAN JUST TO MAKE STUPID MONEY LIKE THIS.

Canada is fine. Stay away from Toronto or Ottawa. The evils of the current government live there and we all pay the price

As an Indian who visited Canada as a tourist recently, I couldn’t believe the demographics of Toronto. I felt like I was in India it was crazy

nothing at similar between Toronto and Ottawa ??

I visited Toronto and took pictures of the city. In my pictures, there was no white Canadian and mostly south Asians. I live in Australia and we have Indians here too. To be honest I don’t mind them. But Canada is another level. Where are the Anglo Canadians?

It’s not diverse immigration it’s 90% Indian, most of them want to live in Toronto, and hospitals are filled with people that have headaches no real emergencies, and who benefits? Big corruptions all about cheap\nLabour.

I left Toronto after 25 years because of this. I cant stand the cultural shift snd definitely not for the better.

Would she really try to assimilate? What about the ethnic neighborhoods in Toronto?

Toronto is NOT a melting pot. I would say Montreal is a melting pot where all cultures contribute to the French culture. Toronto just has a bunch of different communities coexisting rather than melting in a pot.

When is toronto getting vacant I ll occupy all of toronto?????

ITS A SHAME TO SEE TORONTO! PM. TRADUE HAS DESTROYED CANADA.

They always like to act tall with women but hardly ever bold enough to approach me. The same way. Sir go skip over to a man with your convictions. Start with all your leaders over the past 100 years that have worked Toronto destabilizing the region for private profit and then later to ease their guilt about what happen to European Jews. They asked those Arabs to help take down the Ottoman Empire in exchange for true independence. They promised the Palestinians a state for their help directly and then turned around and stabbed them in the back. Literally 2 guys started writing letters to each other that Lead to a unilateral decision to disregard agreement they clearly signed as quick solution to dump their problems into someone else’s back yard.\n\nThey they acted surprised when folks were pissed over their traitorous ways. None of these issues today. All these lives money and mass migration would have been largely avoided if they just kept their word

I grew up in north Etobicoke and it's the same, all Indian. I fled Etobicoke, Toronto, Canada altogether for the US. There's fewer and fewer canadian born people left.

Male Karen abuses delivery man. Also, listen the fake Toronto accent

I’m Punjabi I was born in Centrel Hospitial in Downtown Toronto my English is perfect. Tell me to go back to my country I dare you! Goofs lol The first Sikh came to Canada came in 1897 and we didn’t contribute to making Canada shut your mouths now!!

Came as a refugee 16 years ago it was a dream come true but 16 years later and 3 childern all born here in Toronto.... We planning to move back to our country of origin the biggest reason being that we can't afford life here in Canada any longer pluse I'm sick and tried of the winter I need sun and beautiful beaches ⛱️ another year and we're out bye Canada and thank you for everything but it's time to go home

MK Immigration in Toronto

Sorry, but I didn't know 'so many people' were leaving Canada. In fact, my European friends living in Canada, LOVE Canada. Their number one reason? The government is for the people. Their numerous benefits, programs and services (employment Insurance, child benefit, pensions, benefits for housing, student aid, family benefits, grants and funding opportunities, disabilities and their recently implemented dental care plan), says it all. Sure the cost of living is high, but where isn’t? Especially after covid and especially if you want a decent quality of life. Their car insurance and phone plans are also expensive but they're getting better. Stay out of the big cities if you can't afford it. There are other parts of Canada that is affordable. \n\nBtw, the healthcare industry, particularly the long-term care sector is a good place to earn a decent living. They are always looking for RNs, PSWs etc. \n\nIn the end, the positives outweigh the negatives. Besides having free healthcare and the many generous social services and benefits, Canada is also a progressive country with strong social policies, including gender equality, LGBTQ+ rights and environmental sustainability, (we’re drinking out of those gross cardboard straws now. Hello?). Then there is our natural and breathtaking landscapes, our four seasons, our excellent education system, diverse communities, friendly people, our cool festivals (The Calgary Stampede, Montreal International Jazz Festival, Caribana, Toronto International Film Festival, Just for Laughs Montreal, Pride Toronto are a few that come to mind), our great air and water quality, strict gun laws, legal cannabis… I could go on and on.\n\nIf you're able to afford living in Canada, consider yourself fortunate.

In Toronto, the ttc is full of East Indian students.

It’s all true! It took me over a year to find a 2 bedroom apartment to rent here in Toronto.

But Sir can use book a taxi from Montreal to Toronto if possible you don't want to book a local ticket

I got really lucky and my mom sighed us both up for public housing almost 26 years ago. So i live in a decent one bedroom apartment. It's not the best area downtown. But everywhere else around me is great and only walking distance from anything i coukd need.d?my work is also just two blocks away from my apartment. I work in harm reduction and its sometimes pretty depressing. And my apartment is an ok size. But i get freaking mice. I had to get a cat to catch them and it works. But i shouldn't have to even do that. But my rent is insanely cheap. I feel baf cause gettin on the housing list takea years. Toronto is expensive .

I heard from a friend living in Toronto that Indians control the private sector and are cheating the system and evading tax.

WEST COAST IS BETTER THAN EAST COAST. TORONTO ARE ALL FOREIGNERS, GO to the Smaller town and cities and meet the real White Canadians. Haha TRUST ME! Foreigners are NOT welcome. The white blame the foreigners for all the crimes in the cities when statistics shown mostly are committed by White Caucasian males ?

Stop spreading lies about hate crimes committed against muslims. Please look at the statistics of any law enforcement body, e.g., the Toronto police department,FBI etc , add any year within the last 20 years. \nFor example, according to Toronto police statistics for the years 2020-2022, there were, 42, 55, and 63 hate crimes commited against Jews (hughest) 25, 47 and 48 committed against blacks, and only 4, 14, and 11 hate crimes committed against Muslims during those same 3 years. \nThat numbe of hate crimes committed against Jews is going to be off the charts after October 7th, but even so, in general hate crimes against Jews are blacks are the highest. You don't have to take my word for it, you can look at the statistics yourselves. \nIt's also worth mentioning that many of the hate crimes committed against Jews are perpetrated by Muslims, which also adds important nuance to your misinformation

This is why I'm leaving Toronto! If we went to India and did what they do here, it would never work. Yet they want us to change our ways for them, but they treat the people that aren't Indian like trash. Personally think it's getting ridiculous.

Hi Febby,\nI am a Canadian Citizen living in Toronto and would like to move to Vancouver for a better employment. Could you please advise me on which suburb is safer to find an apartment to live in the BC.

Montreal is decaying. No real employment opportunities in most of Canada except in Toronto, Calgary and Vancouver.

What Canada NEEDS is AFFORDABLE Housing for the working poor, OW, ODSP and get the homeless who want housing.\n\nAll Pubic Colleges and Universities should be AUTOMATICALLY adding a housing cost for International Students. This way these foreigners aren't creating housing problems for the local community. So Colleges and Universities should be buying property within REASONABLE DISTANCE from their Campuses that are only for CURRENT STUDENTS actually taking classes. \n\nThe Government needs to be RESPONSIBLE for LOW INCOME housing. More people are finding themselves unable to take care of themselves. Which leads to severe drug abuse and homelessness.\n\nNew Development should be required to be the most effective version and sustainable version of Green. 15% of the apartments should be for low income, OW, ODSP and Elderly. This will help the Government properly plan out Public Housing across each Province and Territories.\n\nThe next question is why are all these East Indians who aren't becoming TRUSTWORTHY doctors, nurses, business owners competing to live in Parkdale, Toronto versus the East Indian Hubs in Ontario.

If grew up in Mississauga, Ontario then you know that Brampton is called Bramlidish. Before 2010 Brampton was the second known India in Toronto, next to East Gerrad St.\n\nThe crime in Brampton has always been very VIOLENT. \n\nAlso Brampton before 2010 didn't have a homeless population of white people. Drugs weren't so apparent either.

Not many white Canadians anymore but cheating Pakistan into Toronto and offering the lowest rates of hourly jobs?! White Canadians just receiving the welfare passing by each day's!!!

Price of everything going up like crazy but wages aren't keeping up. It's not like the prices will go down either anytime soon.\n\nThis steady increase of everything which involves a person's basic needs is unsustainable, isn't it\n\nAnd that's just in Alberta. What about places such as Vancouver and Toronto?\n\nHow much more expensive will everything be in what, 5 years?

Guys, Canada is big, u will never find jobs (or) be able to afford to live in Canada if u guys prefer just to live in Toronto, Vancouver or Montreal. My suggestion is explore northern Canada, jobs are plenty in those area with no one to work. New immigrants just dont explore outside the box in opinion. I am living example, came as a student, studied & worked median jobs fr 3yrs. Secured a professional job in the 4year and I travelled all across Canada fr opportunities (East,West,North & South). The minute u step outside u will see a bigger unexplored Canada that many new immigrants r missing out.

Canada has been the down the road of high immigration in the past, erven in the face of housing shortages. This happened right after World War II. To deal with the shortage of rental housing stock then in the large cities, the government put demands on immigrants and refugees to settle in agricultural areas and small town Canada. But, it seems today that most immigrants just want to go to the already overcrowded cities, especially Vancouver, Edmonton, Toronto and Montreal. Rural Canada is now facing manpower shortages, but has a fair amount of housing, as many small towns have actually shrunk in population over the years. and could use the people. Immigrants assimilate better in small towns.

Buddy they all in Niagara now they pushed a lot here from Toronto. Every bike path is a tent village, every hotel filled with illegal immigrants. Sick of this government.

is toronto still voting liberal? or is the toronto electorate going to vote in a more cerebral way next election?

3:23 Toronto average 1 bedroom is not $3000/m - this is a controlled demolition, all done to the west by design with the waves of immigration, their controllers want them to setup this dire situation, that people will beg the government to solve their problems. Then your rights can be removed and you’ll accept their version of an NWO. The tavistoks are more clever than us.\nMy advice to young Canadians. Move out of province, buy a cheaper house or buy land and build your own. Start your own enterprise and work remotely. Or just move out of Canada to some of Nomad Capitalist’s or Joel Skousen’s suggested countries.

Oh sure, buy a house, and get sick, bankruptcy has invited you south. There are pros and cons everywhere. Toronto and Vancouver are the most expensive places to live.

I'd take living in Tennessee over Toronto or Montreal.

I have lived in Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba and now Alberta. Toronto was beautiful in the 60’s and 70’s then it started to change to what is now overcrowded, expensive and crime ridden. I would not choose it anymore. Winnipeg, Manitoba in the mid to late 80’s was lovely. People were polite especially in winter, when driving was challenging, friendly and it is very cultural. People would say it would be the best city in Canada if it was in the mountains. Now I live in Edmonton, Alberta a dirty city with a council that puts high priced, unaffordable recreation centres ahead of services that would benefit everyone. Now they want to increase the population to 2 million when it can’t afford to sustain the existing population of 1,568,000. The taxes this year have risen to 8.9% and house prices are expected to increase 6.5% for an average price of $458,000. I lived in Calgary, in the Fish Creek provincial park area close to the C-train and a good bus service to downtown. 45 minutes from the mountains and Kananaskis, great zoo, vibrant downtown and if it is not much more expensive than Edmonton and is ranked 7th best city to live in worldwide. To compare the 2 cities, Edmonton tries to be world-class but just doesn’t have what it takes. The people seem to have very little pride in their city, the parks are a mess of weeds which also grow wherever there is green space and they very possibly have the worst and rudest drivers in the country. Very sorry if this offends anyone.

It used to be easier to live here. Housing costs doubled in even the past 5 years. Everyone who has lived here for a long time who are not immigrants are facing similar barriers. The landscape here changed so radically that communities feel colder since everyone is forced to leave their community every time they have to move and everyone they know is now an hour away.\n\nCanada is still wonderful in many ways, but inner city life harder, colder and more expensive. \n\nThe amount international students are told they need is based on Canadian averages and not the inner city of Toronto and so many are met with shock and difficulty. \n\nAlthough, locals are not entirely sure why people came expecting things to be easier at the same time struggle was already happening. The policy makers come from rich classes and are very disconnected.
