Welcome to the ex-pat club. I left Canada 14 years ago. Talking to people I still keep in touch with in Canada I realize just after Trudeau got in power that Canada has changed. I suggest if you plan on a move do your research on where you are thinking of moving to. Do not rely on a vacation as they are very different than actually living in a place. I speak from experience. Do I get homesick? Yes but right now I would not even think of moving back to Canada. I am very settled and happy living in the EU even with the problems here. Some things to check out are various cities or towns in various regions of a country, healthcare, schools if you have children, cost of running a car (petro, insurance, etc), price of food, utilities, etc. If your work papers or degrees are accepted, what visas you will need. Once you have made a decision, start learning the language. I could do it anyone can do it.

Why they don't go to gcc countries \nWhy they don't go to gulf countries \nWhy they don't go to arab countries \nWhy they don't go to petro dollar country \nWhy they don't go to Muslim country \nSaudi,Bahrain, uae,Qatar, eagypt,kuwait are very rich & wealthy countries & they also have big big land WHY THEY DON'T ACCEPT THEM ??

9.06 million fools are following this channel and I feel pitty for those who don't know what they are listening to, what news and how this Vice News is covering such issues and why not accusing other islamic countries for not accepting the muslim immigrants.

Canada was not meant to be a dictatorship and neither was the United States but if we don't turn around very soon that's exactly what we are going to be. I for one don't accept the government having complete and total control of my life or anyone else's life. Trudeau is a maniac

Why force countries to accept people who a large % believes in extremism & domination of other's cultures by force, population explosion, ideology, religion, etc????

They should stop accepting radical terrorist immigrants who caused havoc and harm who they called Europeans as infidels..

Don't go. Let alone the low chances of finding a place and high taxes, the bureaucracy in the governmental departments will kill you slowly AND yes there is a lot of racism. The German society especially in eastern Germany isn't yet accepting of foreigners.

My wife and me have to leave Canada 2021, we don't accept the med procedure in this time. After 20 years a truck driver in north America, 70 hours the week, no vacation, we left with cad 250.00 ccp per month. Anyway no way I return and work and pay taxes to the criminal government in Canada.

You must be skilled but not too much skilled. and you should accept that you will never reach management positions in Germany.

Would his answer been the same for Syrians, Iraqis and Afghans? Why would any Arab country be interested in accepting Palestinians after Black September?

That's muslim migrants.. turkey should happily accept their brotherine..

I live in Canada over 30 years, and I never accepted this country as my home, Canada wasn't my choice. I wanted stay in Europe in Germany, country that was stolen from Germans, I am from Europe and there is my home we wore sent far away to another continent from our own, far from families and tradition, culture, religion, Europeans people wore replaced with different ethnic group of people from different continents with different values, religions, cultures and traditions. They have nothing in common with Europe, they even do not look like European people, Canada is a country without face, without culture, without religion, and what is the worse without any value of morality, to the people living in Canada dollar is their value, dollar is their God, beside Canada was always overrated, Canada is empty of beautiful things like monuments, statues, sculptures, beautiful buildings, bridges, parks, cathedrals, churches only emptiness a sad feeling of having no emotion or purpose only work and work days and nights, take mortgage, take loan, pay back and take another loan so you must be all your life in debt, there is nothing for you soul, and finally if you surrounded with ugliness you became animals, Canada is a perfect place for those kind of people that they do not care for beautiful things, and they keep dying like an animals.

So why do they encourage and force the weat to accept them?!!! So doubke standard

If refugees 100% accepted the culture, laws and practices of their receiving country and assimilated the problems would be much less.

Somehow Poland accepted Ukrainian refugees with open arms. And why yes, some commit crimes and behave in unbecoming ways but vast majority learned to speak polish,work polish jobs and uphold cultural and social norms. Having lived in migrant-rich places in UK and Scandinavia, this is simply not the case with migrants from Islamic countries. Their culture, heavily influenced by religion, doesn't have the same values, promotes seclusion from unbelievers and using unbeliever's resources at will because they see non-muslims as beneath them.There are Muslim women in Sweden who are there for 20+ years and speak NONE of the language. The epidemic of sexual abuse , property crime and gang violence, the statistics about learning the language, culture, statistics about employment, even personal interviews are good enough proof that majority of these migrants aren't willing to uphold our rules, our culture and are NOT going to be suitable citizens of Europe. Why should we be paying for people who gleefully admit to not wanting to work and feeling entitled to social benefits? Only France and UK were colonial empires, the rest of Europe had NOTHING to do with the state of Middle East.\nWe sympathise with people wanting to escape from religious fundamentalism, from fear of retribution for their identity and there are separate programmes for them. However we have every right not to want Islam and it's rules and it's fanatics anywhere close - religion is a remnant of the middle age and religious fundamentalism, be it Christian of Muslim is nothing more than an excuse to be hateful and bigoted. Europe has worked hard to free itself from that kind of mentality, to have majority of people who genuinely believe in things like gender equality, LGBTQ+ rights, disabled rights, right to healthcare, equality under law and so on - vast majority of which are not compatible with what vast majority of practicing Muslims believe. They don't like us, they don't like the way we behave and dress, they don't want to live like us and follow the same rules- why are they here if not for the resources? If they were there for human rights issues, they wouldn't be bringing the opressive faith that is the source of the human rights violations in their homeland.

Your article sums it up in one word. confidence. Or lack of Confidence in our government. Confidence is everything. Confidence is asking the girl out for a date. Confidence is travelling around the world, trusting yourself and your surroundings. Confidence is that your community will continue to exist. Confidence is belief that a dollar $$$ will be acceptable trade for goods or service. Confidence is waning. Unfortunate all nations rise and fall. This is natural. China time is coming for next 100 years.

The EU should never have created a law that makes accepting refugees mandatory. The reason they did it is because they were bribed by Soros who wants to see Europe and the US collapse. Cheap black-market labor is also a perk for lawmakers who are paid by those businesses who exploit the cheap labor.

Let me guess, you will come to Germany, everything nice here accept the knife guys and the rag head girls.

I will guess Thailand. I have traveled there for the last 28 years, mainly on business but recently for vacations. It is safe, affordable, good medical care, lovely people, accepting of foreigners, etc.. Japan is not a good place for non-Japanese people. Bulgaria I don't know but it is a quiet backwater. Yes, you are going to Thailand.

It's pretty funny that i just saw an ad about how Canada is accepting THOUSANDS immigrants to move in yesterday. I didn't even click the ad but this get recommended to me lol.\n\nI actually wonder why so many countries (not only Canada), are accepting so many immigrants despite how their own people are still suffering due to being homeless, unemployed, and and many more severe yet basic living problems.

First they come pleading to be accepted, once they are in, they want to impose their stupidity and demand to be obeyed!

The reality is USA and CANADA is turning into a Third World country. The problem is, most people that live in those country have not accepted it yet.

EVEN THERE OWN CULT WONT ACCEPT THEM AND TWISTENG THE REAL INTENTION?

The fact is Foreign countries will accept you as a refugees and grant you the Citizenship and if you work there for a several year's you will be granted a Citizenship but on the other hand if you work & stay in Middle East for a lifetime you won't get a Citizenship even if you are a Muslim. \nThe reality is we muslim dnt have togetherness that you will see in Bohra and Punjabi community.

Too many low level people that accept low salary especially in the beginning, impossible to buy houses and have saving..

The Canadian dollar needs to increase its value and be recognized outside its borders. It can only be used in Canada. No other country will accept it

We dont need MORE people, we need a more QUALITY peoples, like our forefathers. We have all be letting that slide with tolerance and acceptance; allow lines to be crossed.

Why don’t we do like other country (Australia) by accepting the one who have money to survive for 1 year + meanwhile and contribute to our economy

You can not demand technical skills aling with language skills, people would definitely choose to improve their skill instead of language, whenever I am applying to the jobs, the simple reason of rejection - language. There is no solution other then accepting other languages!

I am from Canada and this behaviour is not acceptable; it's disgusting! I hope they find this racist Canadian clown and punish him. The delivery driver is classy and kept his emotions under control - he deserves a huge tip. I hope he never deals with this again in his life.

They might have forgotten that Hindu blood runs through their veins. That blood sustained them till they encounter a faith that made them despise the life force that sustained them till they encounter that foreign idea that has now made many of them enemy of India. It is like being ashamed of the umbilical chord attached to your mother. What God will accept such ingratitude?

The Germans cannot accept talented foreigners in leadership positions.

This is a growing Western sentiment? \nWhy? The fact you need to ask is a reflection of your distance from native-born individuals or immigrants to have arrived ....legally.\nThe parents of a household are negligent if open their doors to strangers to the point where these strangers do not adopt the accepted culture and erode the resources of the household.\nMy goodness: this is just commonsense.

Welcoming people with semi-open arms, limited career opportunities with communities which do not want to establish or not willing to accept English speaking working environment, high living cost, high tax yet low payment, topped with bureaucracy... the reasons are evident.

This sentiment comes from the fact that most immigrants comes to find progress, for that the great majority comes highly prepared with bachelor's degree and accept being underpaid or average paid. Contrary to whoever costed their education here and don't accept being average or underpaid because of their education costs.

It's on the rise because the government is actively destroying the wages and welfare of actual Canadians by accepting ludicrous, record numbers of low-skilled immigrants.\n\nIf you are a skilled immigrant in Canada right now, this should make you furious; The governments policies are directly responsible for lower quality of life, an increase in racism (specifically toward Indian immigrants), and a massive sentiment shift in immigration. This harm is going to persist for a long time.\n\nI voted for Trudeau twice. I will never, ever vote Liberal or NDP again after this fiasco.

Germany is a scam. The state will steal at least 60% of your hardly earned money under the funny names of taxation, social security, unemployement insurance etc. People will hardly accept you into their closed social circles. Ahh also do not forget the 17th century buerocracy of the state.

When my parents came to canada 25yrs ago from Korea, they had to bring in millions of dollars and create at least two full time jobs. The whole process took a bit over 3 yrs. I don’t get how new comers are so easily accepted.

They don't accept business related or human resoirces

For one educated enginner or a doctor there comes 99 manual workers who benefit only factory owners who do not need to offer better salaries. Immigrants are accept lower oay cause they rent one flat with 5 other guys and dont usually do not have families here.

I'm a live in the US and I'm a legal immigrant but I too recognize that we are accepting people in that we don't need. We ought to let more doctors and nurses in because we have a healthcare shortage right now that's hurting everyone.

Immigration is accepted as long as intelligence is used ...

What this means is this:\n\nCANADA’s BEAUTIFUL STREGNTHS ARE ITS OIL & NATURAL RESOURCES and BEST OF ALL! It’s Loving and Accepting People!\n\nGOVERNNENTS NEED DIRECTION. Canada, please EMBRACE YOUR OIL, and MINERAL MINING PRODUCTIONS.

We need to adopt a more acceptable approach toward ALL AREAS OF THE EARTH THAT CAN BE RENEWED at the same time - ADOPT SHARING THE EARTH POLICIES BY REGION IN BALANCES TOWARD POSITIVE OUTCOMES.

How is this possible that that’s even acceptable?

I am from Pakistan and all my friends and relatives moved to UK, US, Australia and Canada. When I say all I mean 18 out of 20 left Pakistan and they don't want to come back to Pakistan ever because who doesn't want a better lifestyle for themselves and for their future generations but my father advised me never to leave your country because no matter what other countries will never accept you as their own citizens. Instead of leaving your country try to make it better. \n\nToday I see exactly that happening throughout the world. They want their countries back and you see their hearts filled with hatred against these immigrants. Sooner or later these immigrants will have to sell everything and come back to their countries. What a wise man my father was!

I am an immigrant and I am grateful for Canada to accept me and my family. It is true though that living here comfortably (esp Toronto) one need to get hundreds of thousands $ of income per year. I am concerned about my kids future if the cost of living is not taken under control.

You refuse to distinguish between legal and illegal immigration. The same with abortion - therapeutic VS elective. Reasonable legal immigration is quite acceptable but the corruption of our beaucrats and gov't have made this impossible.

Like many other developed countries that have had uncontrolled immigration we had ended up with large numbers of immigrants ( maybe illegal) that will not accept Canada's culture or laws. This is absolutely unacceptable and must be stopped ASAP. Vote for( CONSERVATIVE PARTY.) GET RID OF THE CORRUPT LIBERAL NDP PARTY.

Sir is ielts academic ukvi accepted in Canada?
