Fabulous video! US viewer here. But we often vacationed in Quebec’s Laurentians and our daughter went to Ontario’s University of Toronto for her undergraduate degree about 15 years ago. UofT was rigorous, to say the least, but she did it in 4 years, unlike some of her peers. She LOVED it, and made many friends, including internationals. They’ve stayed close on FB, and even get together (some flying in from other countries, including the Middle East and Asia) every 2 years or so back in Toronto. We’ve found the easiest way to make friends is by going to university or college together and living in residence, rather than once we’ve enter the workforce.\n\nThat said, and as unpolite as it may be, the root of Canada’s problems are exactly its politics. IMO Canada’s misguided liberal policies are to blame for its stratospheric taxes, cost of housing, increasing crime, tolerant drug culture, and deteriorating health care system. That Canada now encourages voluntary euthanasia to reduce health care costs should say it all. Margaret Sanger would be proud. And it promises to get worse as long as Justin Trudeau and his ilk are in power. His lionizing climate change intervention at the expense of what really impacts Canadians is sheer madness. Conservative Party Pierre Poilievre and like-minded politicians could fix it all.\n\nHappily, here in the US, the conservative movement is growing and energized. Once-liberal, especially ‘minority,’ voters are understanding how little the left really offers in the long run, and are switching sides. They’ll be voting for Trump in November.

Don't' come to Canada unless you want to live under a bridge, no housing, high taxes, very cold winters. Justin Trudeau just looking for your vote, he doesn't care about Canadians or immigrants.

Better vote conservative. Gotta get Justin trudeau out of there. The labor party and the democrat party really are terrible. They're not what they used to be. I was a democrat for thirty five years. Now I vote conservative. Sorry to get political but that's just the way it is.

Canada is an unaffordable mess under Justin Trudeau's 8 years of government . If he gets elected a fourth time we are finished as a country. We are almost at a point of no return. Think hard when voting in the next election. Vote for policy and a long term plan for Canada.

This is a very thoughtful and balanced review. As a retired Canadian who had a good job for most of my life, I'm saddened by the decline in almost all areas of life, lifestyle and and people's aspirations in this country. This decline actually seems quite rapid, I would say from 2015 onwards. Housing in major centres was expensive, but it has skyrocketed in the past decade. There has been a decline in many institutions: 1. health-care, especially noticeable since the pandemic that coincided with many boomer medical staff retiring, but also by our sclerotic institutions refusing to enable foreign-trained doctors to work here. Many foreign-trained doctors in the Vancouver area are doing jobs way below their qualifications while many people cannot even get a family doctor. Crazy. Econonically, there seems to have been no plan at all from the government as we exited the pandemic. At least the US had a plan, to 'build back better'. Our government just floats along as if everything is fine, when the decline is very visible especially to older Canadians. We have admitted 1/2 a million people a year from overseas, so our economy should reflect this and show an upswing. But no, we're in a 'technical recession' as of December and probably a real recession as of last week. I have never voted Conservative in my life, but Trudeau is a flaky dimwit with a famous name who has no clue what he is doing. A fool, in fact. He's mismanaged our foreign relations beyond belief, and nothing has improved domestically. When Pierre Poilievre says 'Canada is broken', I believe it. We deserve much better leadership; in Canada's case, the rot does come from the top. Justin the entitled idiot is much more like his mother than his father.\n\nLong rant. Anyway, I just wanted to praise your balance, and your decision to stay for now. Moving from one country to another is a huge life-change and you have worked hard to be here. I only hope conditions improve for you and your husband in the near future. Will look out for your future videos.

Ok....I've lived in Singapore for the last 33 years, graduated from the University of Alberta with an Electrical Engineering degree. Worked 1 year in the arctic in 1989 then was offered a job in Singapore in 1990 and never looked back. There are MASSIVE engineering opportunities in Asia, its nothing like Canada. \nIf you have to deal with the Canadian government from outside the country your quickly realize that Canada is run by....children. The high commission is a joke, the over seas PP stuff is a joke, its all a joke. They could just copy the legislation that Australia has but they don't, it a complete amateur joke.\nCrime in Singapore? There is almost zero. \nTaxes? Singapore taxes are 1/4 of that in Canada plus there are no capital gains tax in Singapore. One of the reasons I stayed here was that I wouldn't lose have my gains on my stock options. \nInflation is caused by government spending and Peter Pan(Justin Trudeau, the man child) spends-and-spends. He has no plan to balance the budget nor pay down what is already borrowed. This causes inflation.....and it will continue. Why? Because people voted for it.\nCanadians truly believe they can get something for nothing....they can't, but they continue to vote for politicians that peddle that lie.\nSo, Canada, enjoy the inflation....YOU VOTED FOR IT!.\nJim

Canada about 20 years ago and before that actually use to be a really nice place to live in. However Canadians voted in two disastrous political leaders that have ruined Canada. Stephen Harper and especially Canada has really gone downhill under the disastrous,evil, incompetent leadership of Justin Trudeau. Moral of the story is this. Where ever you are in the world choose your political leaders wisely otherwise if you choose poorly once great place to live in like Canada once was can be turned into a hellhole by terrible political leaders and their underlings..

One phrase explains most of this problem: Eight years of Trudeau. Justin is the POSTERBOY for incompetence. Combined with his regressive ideologies, he's actually an extremely corrosive force on the country. And yet even today, the main opposition party is only a handful of points ahead in the polls. So there's the 2nd problem: a significant portion of the country is now dependent on socialism and is afraid to vote in any other way.

Too many stupid Canadians keep voting liberal and idiots like Justin Trudeau remain in power to screw the country

The #1 problem in Canada is that it became Wokistan under the woke-in-chief Justin Trudeau. Immigration vote for Trudeau.

You keep voting in people like justin trudeau, you deserve everything you get Canada. Don't feel sorry for you at all.

Why are so many people LEAVING Canada? JUSTIN TRUDEAU.....and the assholes that keep voting for him?

Vote out Liberals and Justin Trudeau and save Canada

Thank Justin Trudeau for Canada’s downward spiral. Oh and those that voted for him are also to blame. I no longer recognize my country. Wake up folks.

Yet we keep voting for a progressive government, because we are stupid. Our government has destroyed us. If you voted for progressive leaders, you have nobody but yourselves to blame. I did not vote for progressive liberals so I blame you for what you did to us. Oh but you say you didn’t know this would happen? Then how did we know and avoided voting for Justin Trudeau? \nWait till antifa start moving in. Thankfully they are banned in Montreal Quebec

Toronto has changed because of the immigration policies of inept Prime Minister Justin Trudeau... since he took power... Toronto is full to hell... bringing immigrants from Pakistani India and other countries that do not have the culture of people born in Canada…they only come to destroy the country and bring them with citizenship papers so they can vote for him and remain in power

worst part is these gangsters and extremist have strong lobbying in canada govt through jagmeet singh party.india govt tired of requesting expedtion requests to canada govt. justin trudeau supporting them for votes. canadians stop voting jagmeet singh party otherwise canada turn into mexico ,pakisthan\nanother worst and sad part is justin trudeau and jagmeet singh ,pannu trying to projecting this like india vs sikhs, sikhs vs hindus its completely false. candians should understand this all sikhs are not khalisthan extremists. and also all sikhs in canada not indian orgin some of them from pakisthan. a very tiny number of sikhs supports khalisthan. now khalisthan terriost getting strong finacial support from pak isi.this also one reason govt taking it very serious

Liberal Justin Trudeau is destroying Canada. if you vote Liberals things will never change.

When you vote for politicians like Justin Trudeau, who plays appeasement politics in order to keep himself in power and not by people focused policies, development, human skills growth, etc, you are doomed to end up homeless.

Justin Taliban Trudeau is sad that his sikh khalistan militant vote bloc is being jeapordized. He refuses to extradite them and let's them live free in Canada just like the taliban with Mr. Laden. He's only mad he just lost one more voter.

as soon as Covid hit i knew it was time to Leave Toronto. Justin Trudeau and the Liberals don't care about public Safety. for all that voted Liberal. congratulations, you got what you voted for.

You can thank Justin Trudeau. Canadians will still vote for that dweeb XD

The #1 problem with Canada's economy is our totally useless Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Next election vote him OUT !

The current Liberal government is so corrupt ive lived in Canada since Stephen Harper took office and when he was in office my life was better compared to Justin Trudeau when he's in office... the new conservative leader has my vote! They might be all corrupt but im willing to take the risk with any other party other than the Liberals who r currently in power specifically the conservatives

The problem with Canada's economy is simple. The problem even has a name, which is Justin Trudeau. Every moron that voted for him should take a good long look in the mirror and know that THEY are the reason Canada is imploding right now. Seriously... wtf did they think was going to happen when they voted for a person who's cumulative life experience was working as a drama teacher for 2 years before being forced to resign for having sex with a student. We have a complete idiot running the country who has completely sold us out. His net worth has gone from $5 million to $385 million since he became PM.

Biden and his uneducated cronies in the Democratic Party just want to destroy America just like Justin Trudeau and his Liberal party is doing in Canada. \nWhy are these two organizations trying to destroy their countries?\nIt’s because they hate the citizens who know this type of migration will only hurt and destroy the country. \nAnd yet there’s still idiots who vote for these parties. \nLike Forest Gump says “ STUPID IS THAT STUPID DOES. “ Fits the Democratic and Liberal party to a tee.

This is what the Idiot Justin Trudeau and his corrupt Liberal government did to Canada. They need to be ousted. Please vote them out.

The problem with Canada's economy is Justin Trudeau and the idiots that voted for him because he has nice hair.

It only seems fair that the USA has all the Mexicans and Canada because of Justin Trudeau. we have almost a million Afghanistan people in CANADA. Yes, we have housing problems n now welfare income though the roof.\nI wonder what year was Desert Storm.??\nAnd I wonder who these Afghanistan people are going to vote for...lets all guess?, Justin Trudeau 2025

We have such a porous border in Canada. Problem is Justin Trudeau and his pack of corrupt Liberals want more and more “refuges” not skilled....with an education coming into Canada. You see....people who vote Liberal are morons...the “free stuff” they get from the Liberals are paid for with more and more Liberal taxes. Liberal voters think Justin dips into a trust fund or something...yes Liberal voters are really that stupid....they don’t realize more Liberals mean more wasteful taxes. So Justin wants refugees...who he can put on welfare for their lives, become citizens, AND bring in dozens of their relatives to begin the process again....why because they vote Liberal in perpetuity. We are never going to break this cycle. Where is the line to emigrated to the United States.....oh, I’m educated with a masters degree. Not valued in Canada, because I was born here, and I’m white....I feel so ashamed!

The biggest problem Canada has, is the people have intentionally been dumbed down to the point they are easily convinced to vote for a politically correct moron like Justin Trudeau who has never had a single full-time job in his life and who thought it would be great for his first full-time job to be the leader of a G7 country. People voted for him because he was cute, had nice hair and everybody had been sold a bill of goods that his father who was a long-time Prime Minister was wonderful but who actually was a dictator-loving Marxist who started the destruction of Canada. The Trudeaus and Liberal Party were/are supported by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation which is the tax payer funded propaganda arm of the Liberal Party and no one knew it. Canadians are so stupid they'll probably re-elect Justin. Canada's immigration policy thanks to the Trudeaus, is making sure that Canadians founding peoples and cultures will rapidly become a slim minority and be taken over by third-world toilet cultures. Canada deserves to self-destruct.

Justin Trudeau paused our federal election that would of been held in 2024 to 2025. The same year this immigrant boost ends.\n\nHe importing votes to keep himself in power. He knows Canadians dont like him and those who do like him are very few. \n\nCanada is controlled by the W E F and the two families that sold us out to this group.

Five things\n#1 What about housing\n#2 What about jobs\n#3 cost of living\nThis is a horrible idea that Justin Trudeau only wants just in time for votes

because corrupt Justin Trudeau wants votes.

Justin Trudeau is the problem he is the worst leader in Canadian history we Canadians want a vote of no confidence in Justin Trudeau he is the problem

JUSTINE NEEDS THE VOTE'S THAT'S WHY HE'S LETTING IN ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS PLUS TOO FINANCIALLY BREAK CANADA BY GIVING 20 YEAR GOLD CARD MEDICARE EVERYTHING IS PAID BY CANADIAN TAXPAYERS ### MAKE CANADA GREAT AGAIN GET RID OF JUSTINE TRUDEAU SHOULD BE HELD FOR TREASON AND HAS NO CLUE HOW TO RUN CANADA

Keep voting for liberals just like Justin Trudeau and you will be speaking another language before it’s over. Thank God we got Donald Trump!

And then you vote in Justin Trudeau.

Justin Trudeau most GO!!! Can't wait to vote him out.

i thought we were promised for a vote of non-confidence on justin trudeau, sadly why the hell that never happened

Justin Trudeau is the result of the collective intelligence of Canadian citizens. I didnt vote for him, but more Canadian did. people need to introspect themselves. why and how such a improper candidate got elected.

This is another example of the arrogant and deceptive Justin Trudeau. Trying to buy immigrant votes, he actually ruins the lives of people, suggesting they can easily get into Canada. Trudeau isn't all that bright.

nothing to sympathize about this story as is what it seeks when our country can not afford those who illegally migrate here as this statement I raise is clearly speaking for and needless taking to excuse the truthful facts for what the reality greater stands for reasoning with as it is for the cause even as I to welcome all raises regardless of were they arrive here as from yet only as by the means to apply for legal refugee status as anyone with common sense would see reason to deny entry into Canada as the wiser point being there is a great difference as who is properly vetted are those who do legally apply therefore I do show reason to empathise yet never to fear who are legally entitled to live in Canada without such our legitimate Canadians having the reason for causes to fear and there are no exceptions as excuses as reasons to have cause to fear are endless and were as the truth is our country is letting them in as Justin Trudeau is doing and not as this video is telling the truth as fake as I in my city in Canada and as others are being over run by Justin Trudeaus Illegal immigration movement and that is fact backed with prof all as seeing is believing and who can find reason to speak much less as think of it otherwise then what is a truthful fact best afford the flight fares to send them all back to their countries as they first came from not to USA but their own homelands to keep up with our greater relations with the USA as Canada cant afford to let our misleader Trudeau cripple our countries economy any further then his plans for those he is serving his globalist partners and their evil plan for a new world order as are the real intentions as his plans been exposed in attempt to shape Canada into their own image and it is the Canadian poor a are recognising this while those without time to invest as preoccupied by their senseless demand seeing to their time as is money dismiss their cause to get informed afford their time show of an interest those are of poorly minding excusers of the cause taking to worth held above sense of values as most are those of the ignorant people who voted for Justin Trudeau as it is a majority government after all that stands for a lot of brain washed deceived fools and it only goes to show how much of them as they are total libtards

The Canadian government's immigration policies have created racism. When an immigration law is non democratically forced on the people of a country what do you expect? There was no vote in Canada to decide if we wanted to become minorities in our own country. This started with liberal Pierre Trudeau and has been supported by all governments since. Justin may be over the top but this immigration thing has been going on for 50 years and no government dare say anything for fear of losing votes.
