I wouldn't visit London if you paid me to.

Canada is awesome, of course it's not perfect, but it's a fabulous place to live (if you can find affordable housing)! Our healthcare is phenomenal and maybe even too good. Medicine is intervening where it shouldn't and probably extending lives that shouldn't be extended. We have an aging population because our birth rate is low. But people need to take responsibility for their health. Most of the inflammatory diseases we all suffer from are preventable and our clinics are congested with people with very minor ailments who likely wouldn't be there if they were paying out of pocket for the visit. Gay marriage is legal, we eliminated the penny, we finally banned single use plastics, we don't throw money at space exploration or on our military, one year maternity leave, the Canadian Pension, the old age pension- so many government programs, everyone has access to free healthcare and it took a little too long, but we have MAID, we'll help you die if you're sick so you don't need to suffer. And where I live, we legislated out daylight saving time back in the 70's cuz it's stupid.

BC Canadian here, it’s seriously scary not knowing if you’ll be able to afford what you already have, despite there being a job shortage I can’t find work and unless a huge disaster happens that forces those in power to step up and help everyone I wouldn’t be surprised if there was a riot

In any civilized nation, there can be only one set of laws. And if you emigrate to one of those countries, you are obliged to obey their laws - not import your own. If your laws worked you wouldn't have left your home country.

If you need more migrants why wouldn't you build more housing

Racist Hindus need to see this. Pakistanis didnt leave because they wanted too . They were forced to leave by the hindu extremists that wouldn't let muslims live in peace!!

Wouldn't live America at this time and Americans get so caught up in their #2 right children and adults have died and nothing gets done.

Guess this is high time sikhs should stop carrying kirpan/knives in public places. It wouldn't be crazy to accept not everyone is comfortable with people carrying weapon around them .

It is a damn disgrace that Canadian citizens are back of the line while immigrants get preferential treatment and all sorts of grants and incentives. I think white canadians are going to be the minority very soon.My small town 80 km north of Toronto has gone from 99.5%white to about 15% east Indian in a matter of a year and a half.The pressure on our infrastructure,health care,resources is going to destroy everything. This is all orchestrated to diminish the voice and influence of those who built this country.Trudeau is bringing in votes, same as Biden. They basically have imported life time Liberal voters.I wouldn't doubt they are obligated contractually to vote for Trudumb and his WEF goofs.No help for health care,homeless people but billions for immigrants and war. We are headed for disaster.Since they are renaming streets they might as well rename Toronto to Mumbai>

Nobody likes living in there dictatorship country life sucks there even poor people in canada dont half to put up with the oppression that they deal with in other countries and its not the people from other countries that have a problem with the west its there governments. So much so the propaganda tells them there problems are caused by us . First world countries are successful for a reason so they should follow suit and join the party then there people would be to happy to leave and we wouldn't have these kind of issues

I would disagree with the cost of groceries. I still think it's quite reasonable here. House is outrageous though. I wouldn't say that health care is bad but it's not great. You'll have to wait for chronic issue but for immediate help we do oretty well. I'd ask to look at the life expectancy and death rate to prove otherwise. A big problem is a lack of good paying jobs.

I left Canada in 2023 after completing school. Education is great and it did open opportunities for me where I am now. But the brutally cold winters and expensive cost of living is a major turn off for me. I wouldn’t move back that’s for sure

10:10 Canada has no culture or else it wouldn't have been in this mess. White people are just blank slates. Other than that, great video.

Do you think we would see this on the cbc or ctv? Hells naw! We wouldn't even see this thru the harper government! Life wasn't this that bad thru those years, yes we always have had homeles but not this bad ?

I wouldn’t move to Canada because the government supports Nazis. That just means though

Still didn’t answer the question of taking refugees. The point was to get him to say if they would or wouldn’t do it. Nice clapback though.

Trudeau is importing liberal voters, because any Canadian with an iQ higher then a turnip wouldn't vote liberal

Why wouldn't you book tickets with seats close by or next to each other

I wouldn't want to live anywhere else in the world! Where are you from??

BC changed their labour laws to where an employer only has to give 2 hours of paid work in a day and they call that a job. Saskatchewan changed their labour laws to where an employer only has to give 3 hours of paid work in a day and they also call that a job. If employers would get the same kick backs and perks for hiring Canadians then there wouldn't be a need for hiring temporary foreign workers and the illegal immigrants and providing them with housing that Canadians, especially veterans, don't get. Plus the federal government allows China to buy Canadian businesses and all they have to hire is 1 Canadian and after that they can bring in all the Chinese workers they want. That is what needs to be stopped andCanadians would hopefully get a full time liveable wage job and not become homeless.

We wouldn't have labor shortage if you stopped bringing in more people!!!!!

This guy wouldn't help his mother

They wouldn't even behave like this in my son's grade 3 class cuz they're not allowed.

1. The Liberals need more Liberal voters. And I'm not just saying that in a facetious manner - I live in an area with high numbers of immigrants and have heard them say they will vote Liberal because they came to the country thanks to the Liberals.\n2. We wouldn't need foreign workers for all these jobs if the gov't stopped handouts and put more focus on rewarding workers. I have 3 family members on AISH that have nothing wrong with them beyond being SO LAZY. But you doctor shop and k*$$ the @$$ of the person deciding if you can be on the program and you get it. They know how to work the system for any cent they can get from the gov't, then complain it's not enough to live on - IT WAS NEVER MEANT TO BE AN INCOME ANYWAY but just assistance for SEVERELY handicapped people who actually need it.

If we didn't have a mass corporation operating on every street corner we wouldn't need all these low level workers to staff them.

There is nothing wrong with immigration. What needs to happen is we need faster processing to get these people working. There are doctors, nurses and others sitting on welfare waiting to actually fill these jobs. Every hospital is crying for staff. Senior's homes also. They take jobs that the lazy Canadians don't want or are too proud to do. I was trying to hire labourers and plenty of times was told they wouldn't get out of bed for less than twenty dollars. FFS

Wouldn't live in ottawa or toronto if someone paid me

Dang it, was hoping my province wouldn't be #10 lol

He claims to push an Agenda and that agenda is true however, Rasullah(pbuh), wouldn't skip a beat in sending forth all of his power towards Gaza if he was here today

Where do people migrate onwards to? I wouldn't want to go back to my home country. Life is even more unaffordable there than it is in Canada.

Wouldn't Biden catch an INSSERRECTION charge for this?

God help the lives of these immigrants if they step into my town 97% white on google and every bit of conservative. We wouldn’t allow that shit

Your in luck if people think they'll have everything by moving to another country as everywhere seems to be quite similar the only reason I agree you should leave is that Canada is not an Islamic nation so I hope you understand this where as many Islamic nations you wouldn't get a choice ?

This isn’t surprising with trudope running things it’s no wonder the politicians have got this country so screwed up the Indians wouldn’t take it back as a f ckin gift

I wouldn't move from Singapore to Canada, but I would move from Africa, Southeast Asia, Eastern Europe, Latin America to Canada.

And yet…I wouldn’t want to live anywhere else! If you think this is bad, you should travel more often and see what’s around, you may appreciate what we have here in Canada.

I wouldn't say my friends, but friend of friends also left Canada recently. Even earning 130k per year still left them a bit uncertain, having 2 kids, in the end of the month not so much is left, and when they looking on house prices they understand that they could afford one not even in foreseeable future

They sell the house take the profit then move back with a large sum of money.... lower housing lower food lower costs for everything so why wouldn't they do it

19 years ago in 2004 i told people Canada is just a Name.canada is not what you think.its what you wouldn't think .the country does not produce it live out of immigrant like myself and real state companies.the selling.reselling houses that does not makes a country rich.. wealth.all warehouse in Canada is about producing Cookie'.candy and sweet.Tim Hortons LCBO and Canabbis do you think that makes a country wealthy ? ..

You wouldn’t live here either if you knew the cost. Fun times…not so much.

If I was an immigrant I wouldn't want to stay here permanently either. What a dumpster fire Trudeau and the Liberals have made it.

Is this something tRump set up? I wouldn't doubt it! ????

With the US right next door with millions of jobs available, 20% is really not that much, especially considering the price of housing in Canada now. And why wouldn't they come to the US, which has warmer climates, and where Indian immigrants are doing so well, the richest ethnicity per capita? I run a moving company in Boston with mostly South Asian clients. Almost every week we're moving an Indian family into a $1 million home in a leafy suburb with some of the best public schools in America. The living is as good as anywhere in Canada.

Toronto resident here. I do agree with everything that Alina pointed out. Those thing exist. But the only REAL problem is the high cost of rent. It now equals and even surpasses the cost of a mortgage. If the rent problem were resolved, and they can do this by simply building more housing (which they are now starting to do - with government programs and incentives), then most of these problems Alina reported on would recede or disappear completely. \n\nAlso, the homelessness is not visually worse than anywhere else I've visited. Homeless encampments are visible in every city I've been too. However, in Toronto, a LOT of homeless people come from other parts of Canada. \n\nThe violence that Alina referred to was just a snapshot in time. She made her video around 4 months ago, and at that time there were several truly shocking incidents on the subway (which even made international news). Those incidents have not continued. The subway system, and Toronto, is still a very, very safe city. We are the third largest city in North America, after LA and NYC, and we had something like 50 homicides last year. Chicago has like 500. Just by way of example. \n\nI love Toronto, even though it is very expensive to pay rent here. But there is so much to offer that I wouldn't consider living somewhere else. Not a chance. It's great that you can live somewhere else if you work remotely, but when you're not working, what do you do?...Toronto is safe, clean (except in tourist season), with limitless opportunities for career and lifestyle. Wouldn't live anywhere else.

drag queen storytime. I wouldn't go to it or bring my kids, but nobody has forced that on you. Its not indoctrination. Religion is the biggest indoctrination tool. Are you saying you want to stop other people who want to do that and see that from being able to do it? Thats wacky. Thats not you do you and I'll do me. Thats far from it.

(Ha Ha ) ?\nIt's time to pay back for what Western Media Saying Rohingya (Bangladesh ppl) are Myanmar Citizens , they invade our land. Breeding . Fighting local ethnic minorities , Glad to see US ,UK , Bangladesh having their own refugees problem back ? \nUS got pussyGoV , Taylor Swift as,s wouldn't save Biden this year

Nothing a belt fed wouldn't fix.

Some of these points are so spot on. Doctor's who only communicate by phone, difficult to move money across the border, overpriced phone plans - living in Canada you wouldn't even notice this because it's always been this way, but coming from a developed nation like in Europe it's really stark.

I am so confused by the entitlement but then realized they get free housing, cable, internet, food etc so why wouldn’t they come America with take care of them for free meanwhile we are living here without those same rights homeless Americans don’t get the help illegal immigrants are getting

Dude if y’all seen how the Arab and Muslim world is. You wouldn’t be so quick to be swayed by this silver tongue devil. I advise you to visit these areas and what cultural norms they practice.
