You are doing what you think best for your family. May your endeavors be blessed.\n\nWe are also disgusted with how our government in the USA has treated the continued attacks on Gaza. It's one of many reasons we are slowly preparing to possibly leave. While I would like to stay and fight for the soul of my country it is becoming too dangerous for part of my family. Since we are not part of the faithful my husband currently favors the idea of Ireland.

Then Europe should not take in any more war refugees or migrants. \nand possibly bring the muslims back to thier Land. \n\nso they can rebuild thier Land and live on thier Land. ?

in other words, we don't want them and we'll do everything possible tokeep them there

High living costs problem is out there in every country, this is global. Miigrating will always be painful, I come from Mexico, going back to my country is possible but not an option in the long run. I believe private investment is keeping things at hand in terms of security, but the state of governement is broken, more and more massacres are common and people disappearing by drug caetels are happening even more and in zones previously deemed safe. That is why comparing in comparison thus country to me its worth it. (And not Usa because their gun laws and people supporting them to me are a no no, to have shootings at school that common, oh my god).

So basically the city counsels work directly to keep estate prices high by blocking all possible construction permits. Sounds like a prosecutor should look into.Why? Because robbing young people of their future just only to allow some old boomers to can increase their real estate value should be criminal.

Decades of racists immigration policies, and foreign policies are directly responsible for this. We are failing to properly process these peoples legal requests for asylum, because the immigration department has been defunded and chronically understaffed on purpose.\n\nAccording to both US and international law, we have a legal obligation to accept, process and grant asylum requests as quickly as possible. Unfortunately we are not honoring this important legal obligation, and have chosen instead to put barrier after barrier in place, and leave these poor people to languish for months, and years in an unsafe country. \n\nWe have failed these people, and we have broken both US an international law, making these people, who have already endured unspeakable horrors, suffer needlessly, because the religious right are hateful, selfish, racist hypocrites, who have forgotten where their families have come from, and have dishonored the very principals that this country was founded upon. E PLURIBUS UNUM!

You’re 100% right, about all of it minus the rage. Id say Ontario and westward i agree but Quebec and east of there make a LOT less I’d say net 35,000$. And that’s the high end. A lot of people use to come here to build a new life as well as support their families back home. Now you can barely support yourself, god forbid you trying to support your own household. What’s the point when our government just punishes us more and more for trying to survive. I lived in 8 provinces it’s all the same bs. Alberta is the only semi possible place to make it anymore.

i have never been to Canada but i do have plenty of friends who are tried of living in Canada. I live in Malaysia and I do love in here and things are very easy going. The best part is the accessibility to halal food everywhere you go you can easily find Halal food and people in general are very friendly and also helpful too. I have been living in Malaysia for the past 20yrs and I enjoy in here. I was born and brought up in the UAE but I love Malaysia as my home. The cost of living in here is on the raise but it is not so bad as in many other countries so far. The Malaysian government is doing the best possible to keep a control of the inflation. We hope and pray to see 2024 as a better year to come

You moved here and we all want to move there. the weather is better less crime less homeless you do not have to worry about your kids on drugs. Way to go on your choice. we have tent cities growing across the country and less people can afford to even rent a basement suite every year. Our currency is in a full collapse most Canadians I know are buying gold and silver as fast as possible, you can barely get any groceries for $100 any more used to be 5-6 bags for $100 and now it is 1-2.

My father and his family moved from New Brunswick, Canada during the depression when his father passed away. My grandmother was from the US. I will be working on obtaining a dual-citazenship and possibly moving to New Brunswick or Nove Scotia if Trump regains the presidency. That scares the he'll out of my daughter and me. \nMay Allah bless you in all your endeavors. May He guide you to the right place for you. Salaam

I came to Toronto when I was 11. 43 years later, my wife and I are getting out. We are even looking at getting out of Ontario, possibly Canada. It is impossible to afford to live here, and jobs aren't available if you don't look too diverse... there are tons of empty boarded up stores increasingly in the GTA and it reminds me of parts of Buffalo in the early 80s. It has changed too much for me. Thanks for sharing, we realize we are not alone.

Interesting video! Here's my perspective:\n\nI'm from Quebec City, of Chinese descent, born and raised in Montreal, where I lived for 21 years. I've also lived in Vancouver for 3 years, Toronto for 5 years, returned to Montreal for another 3 years, and have now been in Quebec City for 15 years.\n\nAs a Quebec City resident and business owner, I find the city amazing. During the pandemic, there were many programs and subsidies available. I even wrote to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau regarding the CEBA program for businesses, suggesting some changes to the eligibility criteria. They followed through, and Federal Finance Minister Bill Morneau sent a detailed response, signed by him but likely written by his staff, explaining the revised criteria and suggesting other potential programs. Provincially, my MP's staff guided me through various programs. Ultimately, I received nearly everything I needed to survive and potentially thrive through the pandemic (to be confirmed in 2024).\n\nTaxes are high, but I feel safe in Quebec City. Crime rates are low, and I've experienced little racism, possibly due to my fluency in French. Starting a business here has been easy, with minimal costs and bureaucracy.\n\nAs a gay man, I've never felt endangered. I can comfortably express affection for my spouse in public without feeling judged.\n\nHealthcare, including access to medication and doctor consultations, is extremely affordable. Super Clinics offer next-day appointments at no cost.\n\nI own a commercial condo for my business, which cost significantly less than it would have in Toronto or Vancouver. My rent for a one-bedroom apartment is CAD 755, and electricity bills are remarkably low.\n\nWith the shift to online business, I've accessed international markets while benefiting from a low-cost, safe environment. I received a CAD 2400 subsidy from the Canada Digital Adoption Program, among other government-funded programs, to expand internationally.\n\nAlthough homelessness exists in Quebec City, many supportive programs are available, and most homeless individuals here are polite, likely because they face less stigma.\n\nI believe it's crucial to explore different locations when moving to Canada. Many smaller cities offer great opportunities, which works to my advantage.\n\nRegarding the judiciary system, it's not perfect but feels less biased compared to the Supreme Court of the United States, such as in cases like Roe v. Wade.\n\nMy advice to immigrants is to learn the local language fluently for effective communication. Utilize all available federal and provincial tools, like legal aid, and don't hesitate to contact your MP. In my experience, they've been very helpful.\n\nAll the best, Febby!

Um, you might want to consider the possibility that most, maybe all of the problems you list were created by naive leftists like yourself. Millions of people like you, voting like you, put this idiocy in charge. Everything you describe is the inevitable endgame of liberalism. You voted for it, you got it, now STFU and live in it.

If England wants to remain England, they must expel these Islamists as soon and as much as possible

No the cost of living was not always this high! Since the massive spike in a certain population moving here steadily since expo 86 & then another massive spike in 2010 (& so on), rent has quadrupled (possibly more) & not kept up with min wage & born Canadians have had enough. Which might have something to do with why they’re not as friendly, anymore. We can’t afford to buy our own home in the place we are born, when also MANY homes sit empty that owned by mainly corrupt brokers working with overseas Asian’s. It’s a sad truth with stats & articles to back this all up. Many people have simply had enough & I don’t blame anyone for feeling that way.

May Allah make things ease and reward abudantly to both of you and your loved kids and make this your Niyyah and efforts to be most successful and most blessed for your family here in this temporary worldly life and the permanent Aakhirah life too..\n\nWe are really waiting and looking forward to see your further videos on this topic, seeking inputs about the best possible Muslim county to get settle with the citizenship.. PS: we too have plan to move from India to any possible Muslim country to get settle with citizenship.,In sha Allah.

I was born here. I'm not of a particular religion. Rather I choose to accept everyone's right to believe what they want. I too see the deterioration of this country and I especially don't want to be under a government such as ours. I would very much like to learn more about the Muslim faith in English if possible. I wish I could come with you!

Bhai India me 2-4 cr ka makan lelo thoda two tier city me to possible hai

My husband is from Gaza, all of his extended family was killed and these three months have been the most emotionally depleting, we also found out we are 2 months pregnant alhamdulilah and because we want to make sure the little one gets the islamic education and lives in a safe environment we can't possibly stay in Canada (we live in Vancouver, almost no visible muslims here). I'm a revert from Europe so people get so confused when they see me in hijab, it's uncomfortable and scary. Given the fact that my husband grew up in Gaza, we would like to move somewhere where islamic values are still very strong and people didn't exchange them for Shakira concerts (I think we all know which country i'm talking about) so our safest bet as of now is Kuwait and Qatar. More strongly Kuwait as there's a big Palestinian community. Hope this helps!

Ma'sha'Allah may Allah make the move easy and beneficial for you. I am black born to Rastafatian parents in the UK. Since i was a child my parents have wanted to repatriate (move to an Afican land). I'm now Muslim Alhamdulillah and I really want to make Hijra with my children. Possible to a African Muslim country (Gambia maybe) but i hear Malaysia is lovely also. It's definitely beneficial be among the ummah

So much information and absolutely no specifics! At 4:15, it's stated the average person spends 120% of their income\non rent! How is that possible? Notice the vagueness of everything! No specifics ever! Idiots will just love this report!

Indeed making Hijrah is incumbent upon us as Muslims when our deen is being compromised by living in non Muslims lands. Imo as western countries are become increasingly secular we should all make hijrah if at all possible.

We would love love love to leave the UK... our sentiments are the exact same as yours, unfortunately for us, we don't have the choice, as we are not financially able too, but I pray, one day it will be possible, our number one place would be Medina, may Allah swt grant my family the opportunity to live there, ameen

verbal crime may be manageable though it is harmful but when the possibility of it getting physical is soaring...

I wish you the best ?\nWe, (me my husband and my 7 years old girl) live in the UK Kent county BUT for the last year I stayed to think about moving. We are originally from Bulgaria but Turks and came to UK 10 years ago, we just bought our house 3 years ago, basically created everything from scratch. It is bot an easy task to start from the beginning again but I believe that if Allah maid to think about moving that means He will help you.\nAs a hijabi muslim woman in a community that there are not other Muslims around I can say I feel relatively safe BUT some days I notice the look of hatred in n some peoples eyes. The other thing my girl started to question some topics they have been receiving at school and it is a constant battle for me to keep explaining to her the right and wrong. More over she is listening for now but not sure for future and this scares me.\nAs you said praying and being a practicing Muslim is difficult here as well. We are Turks but do not have Turkish nationality but when we go for religious holidays in Istanbul I feel completely different, it just feels like I have to live there near the mosque. My inner me begging me when we are in Istanbul in the old part of the city to stay there forever. \nI really know what you feel and want. I am looking for Muslim countries where possible we can move BUT unfortunately I made the conclusion that there is not a place even in a Muslim land that we can live the way of peaceful practicing and being a Muslim what we want to be. \nJust advise be careful with the Arab world, other than that if you look at Türkiye I would say do your research really well, not in every town there you can live your religion. Azerbaijan is excellent I would say but they are still under the influence of Russia. \nSo really difficult decision, may Allah guide you. Amin

If you want a citizenship I don't suggest you go to any gulf countries, of course ignore any war countries, Malaysia and Indonesia have nice people and I think you can get a citizenship there, Jordan might be a good choice you might be able to get a citizenship and there are diverse groups of people but the economy and civil status laws aren't exactly that great, now Egypt is definitely a choice but the country is kinda drifting off of Islam in the recent years, terrible economic conditions and I don't think a citizenship is possible really, I'm not much aware of the Arab west countries but they have their pros and cons definitely, lots of people there speak other languages and there's some beautiful culture and a considerable amount of political safety compared to other countries in the region, other than the occupation Palestine would've been a great choice lots of foreigners live here but I'm not sure what requirements you need for that and I'm pretty sure they probably wouldn't let you do so as Muslims, I have very little knowledge but I wanted to share what I can, I hope it helps.

You had mentioned Malaysia as a possibility. Sounds good to me. Though l haven't been there, l have been to neighboring Singapore.

Is it really possible to just move to any country you want? I imagine most of them have stringent regulations regarding immigration--unless you are wealthy, of course. Anyway, just curious..... Good luck with your move!

We were born in Sweden to Pakistani parents. My late father made the hard decision to move our entire family to Pakistan so that we could receive Islamic education and be in an Islamic environment. Despite having lived alone abroad throughout his life, his sole purpose was to provide us with the best education possible. Alhamdulillah, I am now a Hafize Quran, well-versed in the knowledge of the deen, and currently working in Sweden once again. So, I wish all of you the best on your journey. May Allah make it easier for you.

You two are good people and awesome parents. I can’t say I relate to most of your experience just because I’m not like you, and I can’t say I agree with you in every way again because we are so different, but WOW I admire & respect you both for making a potentially difficult decision with strength & cooperation between yourselves so that you can give your family the best life possible :) I’m proud of you and I know that God Allah will bless you and your family in all ways moving forward. You are awesome!!!!

They are pushing extra hard to get in now because they know there’s a possibility that in about a year, the border will actually close and the laws will be enforced.

As a Pro-Israeli American, I could definitely listen and possibly agree with his side just due to the fact that he can have proper civil discourse

When Islam weighs more in the balance of power than English citizenship, then English citizenship will be condemned to convert to Islam or otherwise sign the Dima, becoming a semi-slave paying jisia and other humiliations, or die, this is not a speculation. , it is not a possibility, nor a theoretical conjecture, the vision of Islam is world domination by violent means, when doctrinal persuasion does not work, this purpose has 5 stages and many nations in Europe such as England have been there for some decades due to presidents and timid, timid, and progressive politicians, whose concept of solidarity and altruism is governed by the most absolute ignorance, which makes them incapable of directing the destiny of a nation, have been facilitating this 5th stage through migration and the multiplication of the Muslim population. within this migration through their children born in England, children who will be raised under the radical ideas of Islam, and who will one day fight to impose them in England, because according to the implicit inclination within the Islamic doctrine, anyone who wants to keep them completely , will necessarily have to become a radical Muslim, because that is what Islam requires of them to conquer the world starting with the nations that were conquered by Islam and then lost, and they know that it is impossible to do it by peaceful means, all those Muslims Who sincerely preaches an Islam only of love and peace is a good person but a bad Muslim, the league of Arab nations is made up of 14 million km compared to the tiny 0.24% that Israel has, so if the conflict were over land The Arabs have plenty of land, but the conflict is religious, so they do not accept peaceful solutions or reasoning, even the West Bank has more territory than Israel or Egypt itself, but why does no Arab country want to accept the Gazans? Well, why do they? If you know the Islamic doctrine and the real situation within Gaza, there every Gazan family belongs to one of the various Islamic terrorist parties or at least they support the Islamic (jihad) war against what they call the infidels, so they are A PLAGUE of hatred, destruction and death for anyone who says welcome to my house, proof that many of these pro-terrorist protesters are going to protest violently is clear when they act just like any criminal when they are going to commit a crime and cover their faces to that no one recognizes them, and when they bark, defecating from their mouths with hysterical cries of the blindest ante-Semitic hatred, Allahu Akbar, or free Palestine from the river to the sea, they are declaring, first of all, that they are at war, which turns them into an invading force. of Islam within England, and secondly, they are declaring in the sight and patience of the all-complacent English authorities the extermination of the entire Jewish race, and it is precisely the kind ignorance and irresponsibility in the face of this growing danger on the part of the English government that which is why Islam, one day not too distant, will bring England to its knees, or at the very least will make it cry blood.

The definition of a canadain is an american without a gun and public health care... otherwise it is hard to tell the difference.... Canada has almost 9 months of winter and 3 months of bad skating... The province of Quebec which is still part of canada (don't tell them that) has the language police to be as anti-american and any democratic as possible, they only tolerate english if it is in US$ and tax other taxes with the most expensive bloated government of any state north of Mexico. The cartels are envious... all things purchased are imported (except animals and greenhouse tomatoes)are american with the exchange rate of almost 33%... If you are a doctor or nurse or medical specialist trained in western medicine like Europe, Australia, etc. You almost have to start over.... SAD. Like América, big cars/trucks are king, public transit is not a thing... yeh there are some buses in a few major cities, more of an after thought... The only positive thing about coming from another country climate is you have something to compare with.... Personally i was born here so where do i go... A few friends have travelled to the US but have not returned... its warmer in Texas i guess... Canadians are suspicious of Asians because they come with money and buy up property esp in Vancouver/Toronto hence the concern... As for you making friends, you seem to be very Americanized, speak English well and not so traditional except for being married... you would make a lot of people comfortable among traditional Canadians... just my after thoughts...

How is it possible that one man has literally destroyed this country in the last four years ?????

Typical politician. Here's to Elon, who's making it possible for the world to become independent of oil states.

The Palestinians have on many occasions since 1948 been offered the opportunity to live side by side with Israel in peace, but they have always rejected it. \nThe case in point was in 2005 when Israeli settlers of Gaza left on masse and the Palestinians were given the whole strip including the opportunity to be self-sustaining economically. The Israelis left them greenhouses and an infrastructure and they were also supplied with millions in aid that would have made it possible for them to prosper, but what did they choose to do instead? October 7th, 2023 terror attacks happened. They chose to arm themselves and decimate Israeli civilian communities.\n\nNow that there is war and many Palestinians are dying, the Saudis and other oil-rich Arab nations, who are neighbours of the Palestinians won't lift a finger to help - i.e. give refuge to members of the Islamic Ummah, who needs their help. Oh, they will give financially, but that is no real sacrifice to them whatsoever. They have no problems in spending millions to sign football players for their league. If they really cared for their Palestinian brothers they would do more than that. That is simply hypocritical.

Hello Diamond, please i have an undergraduate degree in agricultural science which i got in Ghana. Please do you think its possible for me to apply for my masters in Computer Science or i should just apply as a high school student. I have done a little research on Agricultural Science in Canada and it seems you don't really need to have a certificate to work in the agricultural field so i feel it might be a waste of money. What do you think

I live in Ontario Canada. Generally; I vote Liberal. I voted Trudeau in twice.... now regretting it a little bit. He has done some good for me; but also bad.\nCanada started plummeting after COVID hit; and it has gotten worse. The main errors made by this government are with both the Liberals and Conservatives agreeing to 'grown' big corporates into HUGE monopoly corporates. TO compete with the USA. Due to this; we are now paying food prices through our ears!! Crazy. Also; there seems to be a level of corruption regarding the housing issue. No affordable housing. Not enough homes built. Only the rich can afford homes now. Government gets to tax that; and they love it! The rich class have more clout in voting for a government that aids them in making more and more money that they rob from the POOR house renters. The lower and middle class. As the Middle class in Canada is now becoming poor. The rich get much richer. This government is trying to bring in thousands of immigrants to stimulate the economy. But mostly; the immigrants have taken over all the lower Canadian jobs. We can't get them anymore. Because immigrants work cheap here; and sign onto contract deals with mega-corps that ensure they keep working for 2 years. Job entry level Canadians (are left without). There are also not nearly enough houses for immigrants to live in anyway! This government did not anticipate that we simply do not have enough homes for immigrants, nor Canadians alike!! What a fail. Healthcare is also failing huge... mostly thanks to the Conservatives who love to block almost every good healthcare BIll possible.

This adamant attitude did not allow it resolved this issue since it's beginning, if Arabs had accepted two states then, not only people of palestine had peace but Israel would be lot smaller in size that is of today with no possibility to expand. But no ...in stead they chose to war with Israel because Arabs don't care for people of Palestine.

The Arabs use the Palestinians as leverage against the Jews. The Saudis have more money than they can possibly spend.

The thing I don’t understand about Canada is how to plan out your finances when you buy a home. If the interest rate might go up, how can you possibly plan for that? When I bought in 2016 it was 3% for 30 years

Canadian employers and often hiring managers are very very conservatives and risk adverse. Both as someone who grew up here, worked abroad and came back, the whole process for getting a job (as well as seeing how my colleagues behave as hiring managers / HR), it feels we are decades behind most countries in how we hire. \n\nIf not for my previous Canadian experience before going abroad, it would've been much harder for me to get any employment here. Moreover hiring managers are insanely close minded relatively, I've had countless discussions with people who would rather go with a worse candidate that they know from previous or referral than someone who's obviously more qualified / knowledgeable. It's also possible that the hiring managers have no confidence in their own ability to gauge skills (long LONG rant in this regard...), so they always prefer to go the safest route (for themselves) rather than take any risk on someone who's more skilled.\n\nCanada is (well.. used to, 10 years+ ago) great to live but it's horrendous to make a living.\n\nwith everything going to a shitshow over last decade... we can't even have the first half of that sentence anymore. I now fully expect my kids to leave the country when they look for work and it's probably best for their careers / entrepeneurships (ANOTHER part canada is just hostile to SMBs).\n\nTransportation... yeah, anyone who's lived abroad will consider Canada public transport to be very very low tier. however, you tell that to life time Canadians and they'll be super offended, aggressively defensive how great it is, etc.

Most of my life I lived in a country where you have to pay for healthcare to get higher quality or next day appointment. And looking at Canada I still prefer it more than free healthcare with waiting up to 6 months without having any private alternative. I better pay to fix my health as fast as possible. Consequences may be irreversible even after minor disease.\nAnyway thanks for the video!

How can you possibly criticise the Arabs when Israel is sending missiles to innocent women and children and you talking about Arabs being criticised.\nIsrael has done nothing but lie to them and steal more more land in the last 40 years, and if you can’t see, this is the final push

Get them out as soon as possible. Muslims do not belong in England. They are placed there for a purpose. Divide and conquer.

I bet she hasn't thought of this possibility

Israel is trying to make the occupied territories as unlivable as possible for the Palestinians so that they leave and then Israel fully annexes the territories and makes them a part of Israel!… That’s how Israel was created and that’s how Israel has slowly but surely grown bigger!

This is as clear and as forthright a response as you can possibly receive. He leaves no doubt. None at all.

Lets talk about human behavior. People idolize ideas, places, people. They only see the best possible factors and ignore the rest. Likewise after some time in a place they've idolized, they begin to forget the reasons they left where they came from, only to return and realize reality is never like they thought it was going to be.
