I’m from Charlotte, NC, USA. Here in North Carolina and in other parts of the South, we love our barbecue. How is the barbecue scene up in Canada compared to the US, and which provinces in Canada have the best barbecue?

Love Canada from an Indian who lives in the US ?????

I've never met a single person who moved back. lol\nI moved here from the US and I absolutely love it here, if you can't find a job in Southern Ontario you're not alive. There are help wanted signs everywhere.

Who ever is slow to anger has great understanding but he who has a hasty temper exalts folly. Let us always love each other and respect each other because we are humans and it is real Human Kind.

You were doing so well until you got to Quebec. Don't get me wrong. I LOVE Quebec and I can barely speak enough French to get a hotel room and a meal, but in major cities like Montreal and Quebec City plenty of people in the service industry speak better English than most of us do. The one problem is.....TAXES. Unless you are looking for socialist utopia where daycare is cheap you are likely to find them kinda oppressive. I grew up in Northner Ontario, worked in BC, Quebec, NB, Ontario and Alberta and have visited the rest of the provinces and NWT. Yukon and Nunavut still to go on my bucket list..... Personally, I love the people of Newfoundland the best, the scenery of BC the best and the taxes of Alberta the most. I could be happy living anywhere here now that I am retired but I have settled in New Brunswick for the cost of living. Plane tickets are cheap if I feel the need for a change of scenery.

It's a pity that Americans couldn't just move into Canada. I would have loved to move there. Lived in Michigan before I moved to Texas so the weather wouldn't even be a problem. I actually miss the cold and snow. I feel like the US is becoming a third world country.

gosh. i was hoping to immigrate to canada as a nurse. but the comments here ratioed to not liking canada. well... US it is. but i love the video. im learning a lot.

So, please help me out here, Please educate me....please. I'm a dual national (USA/CAN). I was up in Canada for business and ended up staying in the great White North for a year eh!, and now back in the land of the free. \n\nHow would you compare Government control of business transactions by citizens (All Legal)) in Canada and that in the USA? \n\nI'll even throw in an example, so please don't delete this comment i would love to gauge the reaction of others. \nCrypto is huge and in its infancy, great opportunity for business folks that know how to play the game. I invested $1000 US and purchased two Tokens at a fraction of a cent and had 200 Billion Tokens in my wallet (Token/Coin Birth). My business partner in Texas made the same purchase. Fast forward two months, he has $980Million USD in his wallet and I have $600 USD in mine (i was in Canada, My partner in Texas USA). All transactions were block chained and reported for taxation . Can you tell me why? \n\n\n\nBest of luck to you two young ladies, have a great and controlled life.

Love the us ?? from Canada ??

Love US from Turkey ❤

Aoa Sir First I want and wish to salute you because in my life my first best Drama was Alpha Bravo Charlie and then Last and only love Duwan Drama ...... Sir first in this video i was trying to recognize you but in vain. After check your Biography i come to know that who you are. \nSir i dont know how much my this comment valuable for you but ,,, Please keep updating make videos because your voice is valuable for us .... In my childhood you were my hero ... i am sorry i don't know you believe on it or not but its true... \nI wish some day i will meet you Inshallah if Allah's will and if you allow

Thanks for making this video. After nearly 13 years as of Jan 1st 2022, I'll be leaving Canada on a one-way ticket; not to my country of origin, but further into new ventures.\n\nIt's been a slog to become a citizen and try and make life work here. It's a good place to be successful financially if you make sound choices, and then to live a fairly quiet, isolated life. If all you want is to live within your own ethnic community and have a better quality of life, it's a good place.\n\nUnfortunately, it's never had enough culture or meaning for me. Life feels pretty empty no matter how much money you make. The national identity being based around home-ownership feels extremely depressing to me.\n\nAnd you're both on point about the reserved, passive-aggressive nature of Canadians. I've become like that too now. It's pretty obvious that it costs us dearly; people are unable to be genuinely warm, to take risks and form real friendships. Everything feels surface-level because no one risks taking the steps that might even be a bit of intrusion into each other's lives that is the signal of the start of a close friendship. I'm sick of the surface relationships I've had here.\n\nAnd the wholesale import of U.S. narratives with complete ignorance of our own realities. Most Canadians think they live in the U.S. and seem unable to name a single important issue in their own province or country. I truly came to see the Canadians as a colonized people who refuse to truly admit that they are colonized behind a thin veneer of insecurity posing as a virtue-superiority complex.\n\nI sound harsh but it's the outpouring of someone who's fallen in and out of love with his country.\n\nI don't know what I will find on the other side, but it's going to be different and I honestly can't wait.

Put your trust in JESUS all the misfortune will go away. GOD made a beautiful world for Us, if any one have Love, kindness, prayer, \nPractice acts of kindness. It doesn't matter much where you live, you will be the most happiest person, Trust in JESUS you and your family will Saved. No one deserves God's kindness but God is good all the time❤️GOD bless you all❤️

I love Canadians, I went there in 2018 for a friends wedding and you guys are beautiful!\n\nI mean I’m from australia ?? and the big difference is the US is overly Agro when my family went over the border to up state New York I got verbally abused by a US border guard as I was parking my car and asked in nasty way, I had to put him in his place most of the time. \n\nAll in all I love Toronto and the small town of Renfrew where the wedding was held.

My husband is a Post graduate veterinary doctor (MVSc in poultry science), have 18 years work experience in related field. Now want to move to Canada (Ontario) with a job offer from poultry company from Ontario province. Please guide us with proper information. Love and regards -from India

US people : I love u Canada, I got ur back.\nCanadian ppl : I love Canda, I also hate USA. \n??

All Pakistani public love u....and a faithful person like you are our assets.....Pakistan didn't react u as you deserve....but you better know our condition....this soil always insult it's heroes....miss u ....our hero ashir Azim....still u r working for us

I never ever wanted to moved to America. Had to moved because of family and entered the country at an age of 12. Didn’t do anything but still got the US citizenship cause only my earthly parents had to passed the thingy.. I guess whatever God gives.. you just get it. Whatever God does not give. You can never ever get what He does not want to give you ? Well, as a Christian, I just go where God loves me to go and live the way God likes me to live ?

Love to US from alberta????????

Love US from Iran

A/A. Great topic and information! Thank you! For you to say you’ve been here for 15 years and haven’t experienced racism then you’re lucky. I have been living here for 28 years (that’s most of my life, I came her as a young child). My sister’s and I have experienced first hand racism due to our hijab in elementary school, high school, after 9-11 during job interviews (myself and my brothers due to their name being Muhammed). Over time things have gotten better alhumdolillah but racism exists everywhere and many have experienced it. Where there are people that use racial slurs or acts of discrimination etc, there are many more that will support you and guide you. I love Canada and wouldn’t live anywhere else but to say it’s not there and every case is dealt with the way it was dealt with our London family, is not the case. If it was, what happens with them would not have happened. May Allah help us treat one another with tolerance and love as Islam intends it to be. Once again thank you for creating videos like this to help our fellow Pakistanis.

Love Canada from US ????

Excellent explanation, guidance and recommendations. \nI love the way you recommended about packing the suitcase. I hope people at least follow you on that one advice only. \nI respectfully disagree with you on the discrimination part of your video. \nI live in the US and never been discriminated but it all depends on the work environments. I have seen people in low paid jobs are oftentimes discriminated for their skin color or ethnic backgrounds. \nYou might not remember me but I used to meet you in IBA Karachi.

Canadian love from Us ??❤️??

UK vs US next pls, i don't know why but watching this kind of vids is relaxing and im loving it!

A compelling documentary, thank you. Why is it that black people continue to be so demonised and de-humanised? It is such a shame that follow Asians and even American Natives play such a role in perpetuating racism against African descent people, but I guess they have their issues of identity. Real shame nonetheless, but one thing at the time, we still have a bigger hurdle to overcome.\n \nOf course, it is still not easy to be a black woman, man or child today. Sadly our mothers are still crying for their children being killed or overly punished by the police institution, our kids are still targeted if not simply despised for being beautiful, bright, talented, lively and brilliant beings with deeper skin tonalities, and hair that speaks for us otherwise. It is still dangerous because there is so much hatred across the world against us as we are coming to understand. And hatred is unpredictable. It comes in different ugly shapes. \n\nAfrican descent people are institutionally exposed to a lack of opportunities based on race, leading to the disproportionate poverty levels in our communities, and poverty brings your far closer to crime. That should not be so difficult to calculate. We're faced with higher mortality and disease rates, covid 19 has rubbed that to our eyes, care systems medical world is in less favour and neglect black communities. On a day-to-day, I am so insulted about the security guard that follows me in the shop, it is so disrespectful and embarrassing, that makes me move suspiciously indeed, yet so low and ignorant I don't even want to have to confront the issue. \n\nI agree with the writer who writes about his experience (and shame?) of being a black man in Canada- the same is institutionally reflected in Europe and across the world let's not be naive, we're not welcome but they should know they have no choice. I believe what he really is trying to express is based on the fear of being a black man in a hostile environment, but we should certainly have nothing to be ashamed of. \n\nOn contrary, we should be very proud because we are still here, like any other citizens paying our taxes and playing positive roles in society by major. We have positive role models are everywhere, from the single mother raising her children with force and determination to the black father who teaches at a local school, from the black girl who's achieved top grades to university to the black young man who's been headhunted from the medical school. And all of us who are just trying. \n\nLook closely. While the media will continue to do its good job demonising and stereotyping us negatively, let's not forget that we are real people with real accomplishments who have always made impactful contributions to society. \n\nHere's the thing, we are admired, loved and celebrated because of the brilliance, talent, charisma, swag and wealth we bring to contemporary culture. Everyone consumes black culture, from the filler lip service to the quick fix tan, from rock and roll to hip hop and RnB music, to sports athletes to the amazing creators out there, no need to mention names. But, we also are doctors, politicians, judges nurses, waiters, carers, scientists, builders, bankers, entrepreneurs, employees or unemployed. \n\nSadly on a day-to-day, we are not viewed as equal people, with equal rights and needs, who, by large, just want the good for our children, our families, neighbours and indeed countries. STOP INSTITUTIONAL RACISM. We are real mothers, real fathers, real children who have a birthright to equal treatment, respect and human dignity, whether or not you choose to disagree.

Our Lord Jesus Christ was asked what it really mean to love your neighbor?  So He told a story about a weary traveler who was robbed, beaten and left alone alongside of the road (Luke 10:25-37). An ordinary man saw him and kept walking. Another very religious person ignored him, too. But the person who actually stopped and did something was someone a bit unexpected. That person was the Good Samaritan. We all know the story — a kind person stops to help another person. But it means a bit more. In the story, the traveler and the Samaritan could not be more different. They came from different cities. They had very different views. Some might even say that these two people would have hated one another. Yet despite their differences, the Samaritan chose to love his neighbor. Even though the neighbor wasn’t really his neighbor at all. Our neighbor isn’t just the person next door. Our neighbor is the person God has placed right in front us. And no matter how different, how inconvenient or how unexpected, we’re asked to love our neighbor well. 1 corinthians 13:4-8 tells us Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.

Hello. First time here watching your videos ?.. why all this white foreigner and black American hitting asian and say bad words that to asian people and she was filipina woman from Manila Philippines ?? we respect all kind of foreigners lives in our country.... foreigners needs to respect us too. Asian Many Asian county all over the world.. you don't know who you hitting with. Like philippines country.?? Stop hate asian. God created us all. God is watching us.. God is coming down to earth again for jugmentday revelation.. Let's spread love and peace ? I'm asian woman too. Watching from Manila Philippines ??

I think that's a great idea !\nSeeking asylum in Canada from the US. \n Millions of good immigrants are assaulted and abused in racist America. \nPrayers for this guy and his loved ones ?

Wish I can protect her and care for her beautiful love i will date all Asian girls cuz I’m Asian Hey white don’t get a real Kong full by us u will get hurt Asian know how to fight Kong full

as a muslim, these people are EMBARASSING. trust me, no one i know is like this and islam actually teaches us to love and respect other people and religions. these people are clearly not good people if they want this.

Very well done! In Canada we are not really patriotic, we love being canadian but we ca speak more freely against it then in the US. We are more free in general because of the global safety. The culture is not only related to money. And lastly we are more aware or interested in the rest of the world. That being sais the last 4 years had destroyed the american brand, so I hope that Canadian way of living will rub off on the US so it would create a more stable and better world.

Corona has nothing to do with anyone's race or origin. We're all humans this is a time for us to stand together and be united always and face the situation head on. \n\nPeople who differentiate others by color or race need to know that we're all human. Though we may have different complexion or look different and talk different, at the end of the day we're all one big family. \n\nThose who deny and live a life differentiating everyone should not be encouraged and should instead be corrected and if that doesn't work then they need punishment or need to reach out to the nearest hospital for help. \n\nThe earth is our home and our fellow human beings are our family even if we aren't related. Please respect and love one another rather than hate.

I'm Jamaican?? Canadian ?? and I love it here I've lived in the US ?? NY Flatbush and Church, South Central Philly North Felton St, and Atlanta Stone Mountain but I've never been to California, lived in London, UK Catford Perry hill big up!!!! ??

The USA loves Canada so much that they tried and failed to invade us twice.

We are Global African Indigenous people!! Love and Unity is the best key for us all together!!?\n\nAlso Giving thanks to the Great Mother's/Goddesses and Great Father's/Gods and the Ancestors and Guardians!! Saying from Snefer aka Bashiyr!!????

Canada loves to hate on US and say they are nicer and more welcoming....

Canadian here. I want to make one thing clear: *WE ARE A REAL COUNTRY WITH VERY STRICT IMMIGRATION LAWS!* I myself am an immigrant, although I came here as a baby. People seem to be under the impression that Canada is some sort of utopia that welcomes every single immigrant with open arms and sings “Hakuna Matata” with them. No, we are an actual country with stricter immigration laws than the US. Yes, we love diversity. Yes, it is our strength. But that doesn’t mean everyone is fair game. I’m not even specifically referring to this man here. All so-called refugees who already had made it to the US. If you were a refugee in the US and then come to Canada, OF COURSE we’re not gonna automatically grant you refugee status. Jesus Christ.\n\nTrudeau is not being a hypocrite. Of course we appreciate and welcome immigrants. But We. Have. Laws. End of discussion.\n\nEdit: I want to make it clear that I support immigrants. I voted Liberal and I will again. Either them or NDP. I’m just so sick of people thinking they can waltz into Canada and become a resident. “If Trump gets elected again, I’m moving to Canada!” Please ?

I love how people trash the US for being racist, but we are still the best country to immigrate to ??????

I wish the US did a show like this. Thank you guys for what you do. I love your show! I feel so bad for the customers who get taken advantage of but I also love how you expose the real issues at hand.

All who lives in Canada are all immigrants aside from our First Nations brothers and sisters. Let us all respect and love one another. God bless us all. God Bless our country Canada ????

The past was shameful yes! But you cant live in the past. You must move forward. Are white people not also killed? I dont see racism like the US. 100% of the people I see of different colors are kind and respectful to each other. The news media is trying to divide us and I would love to see more challenge them in there attempt.

No offens but the original people of North American are brown people and we all came from Africa and as time pass and people moved doesn't mean you can forget the people that call this land home and you ripped away and stole my people from Africa to do your labor without paying us so next time you tell someone to go back to there Countries why don't you listen to your own advise. And your no better than America since both country's can't get over the fact black and brown and Asian people are beautiful and smart and you need us. Peace love and Truth

I'm sorry to those that are stalked when doing something as simple as shopping. \nIt's wrong..\nBut guys..\nRemember this..\nThere is a God..\nHe sees and hears all..\nThe guilt of you getting stalked is not yours..\nIt's the stalkers..\nThey will have to answer to God for it..\nI truly believe we are all God's children.\nAs I believe he loves us all.\nBut god laid down his commandments. \nWe are to follow those commandments..\nHe is our father..\nHe laid down the rules.\nBut like a father does..\nIf we do not obey the rules..\nWe will be punished for it..

No they are NOT similar. The US is a terrible, racist, egocentric and aggressive country. Canada is a peaceful, loving, tolerant and with good friendly and normal people. RIP GEORGE FLOYD
