I'm a naturalized Canadian, and I have so many financial concerns\n\nI don't feel happy at all\n\nEven if we buy a house, the cost of maintenance and high mortgage interest rates are overwhelming\n\nElectricity, internet, transport costs are very high as well

I'm so happy with the amount of cool he carried all through this time. Excellent brother! You'll be successful in anything you do in life! \nIgnore the racist here. We see such people every day, but this racist was so foolish that he recorded himself inculpating himself?

This is what called Happiness Index top rankers ??, western think money is happiness ??.Lol they are joke . Money is for needs but it will never give happiness it is inert feeling , they are dumbos. ?

?The root of the issue no one seems to address …. What is the incentive ? \nNon Canadian students taking advantage of our education, being rewarded with free money and grants that ultimately end up leaving our country in the end. Non contributing seniors that get rewarded with financial aid and free healthcare. And the current worst …. \nA monopoly formed by out side investors and local realitors / agencies that drive up our housing market screwing Canadians out of ownership and a happy ending. And let’s ad icing to the cake…. Out of simple ignorance, they are supporting the worst political party out of cultural comfort and support. #F-CA

If they want that evil religion and law go live in country where they are happy with it

Not too far from me is a shelter. Once a gigantic Toronto Hydro building now just a gigantic building that houses immigrants.The immigrants in this shelter all originating from Africa. I have yet to see, white, asian or brown exit this building. It houses both women and men. No families with kids..that ive noticed yet. They seem to be treated very well. Everyone looks happy, healthy and full. They enter and exit freely and usually have their best clothes on like they are about to go to church. Food is is delivered to them everyday. Fully cooked meals ready to be eaten.. and im sure brought in multiple times a day. Incredibly gross of Canada

If Biden would just give them all an ice cream cone they'll go away happy

Well, you are one negative fella. You choose to live in Vancouver. I live in Quebec and my rent is $550 for a one thousand square foot 2 bedroom. You obviously choose your data. It's people like you that make others feel miserable. When I go outside, I see happy faces, nice well maintained streets, beautiful homes, and a lot of nice cars. I hope you will see the light and stop deprecating this wonderful country that we live in.

And pethaps your parents told you to come here, and they told you what to study etc etc etc but you should think of your welfare and happiness and not do everything your parents want you to do

Here in England we are happy with our Indians, the Sikhs and Hindus dont bother anyone and are law abiding. Whereas the muslims esp Pakistanis are constantly grooming our children and women, pushing their religion on us etc. I find it odd that so many Canadians have an issue with Indians. If they were Arabs or Pakistanis you guys would be in for a lot of trouble lol

Whoever you are, you are like my brother and I am very happy that you had so much patience. Delivery boy )) )for the customers special words in Hindi mc cc bsdk rn )??Those who don't know their father will call us brown guys

Nothing wrong with East Indian but that massive idol has to be torn down, they can have that in the buildings but this is canada. Agenda 2030 you’ll own nothing and be happy

I miss the old Canada I am constantly thinking of the past and how happy I was I am now sort of scared to live in my own country. Especially since Trudeau

It's always been this way. The French and English were in their separate enclaves in the beginning. The Irish, Scottish and Germans then established their bases where they could more easily integrate into their new societies….The Italians and Portuguese and Greeks and other Euros set up shop in the 50's 60's and 70's…Most of them lived among their own communities with familiarity…Same for all the Asian and African, S.American, Carribean immigrants and others ever since…. They may stay a generation or two in these communities, but children of immigrants lean to living wherever suits them. It's like the evolution of immigrant societies. This is happening all over the world at this moment, and people of all races ,creeds and colours are complaining of other groups of peoples of all races, creeds and colours moving into and sometimes engulfing their communities.\nSome communities have been Gentrified…Do we shake our fists in the air and scream ' Damn those young professionals!!?' Other communities have been inundated by hordes of Seniors. It wouldn't surprise me if the blatant racists commenting on this site didn't suggest Euthanasia in such cases, or perhaps loading them onto ice-floes and tugging them out to sea. If you're not happy, MOVE! If you can't adapt, or if you can't see that we're really all the same, all wanting the same things in life, or if you don't realize that most people from these countries are actually really nice and worth knowing, well don't go away angry, just go away to wherever suits you. Perhaps there's an Ice floe out there for you somewhere.

Lmaoooo \nI am so happy to see that the west has people like him. They got themselves a fucked up future. ??????

I am not Anti immigrant I realize we need a certain amount of immigrants but the amount we are talking in his ludicrous. \nI have nothing against Indians but I don’t want to live in India. They would not be happy if Africa started shipping millions of Africans to India. I noticed most immigrants before knew some English. These new batches hardly know English

People who voted for Trudeau: ARE YOU HAPPY NOW!!??

I'm not even a Canadian citizen, hut I am so happy that there is a channel like this and a person like him who exists.

The best part. “No God da-n Sikh temple in Timmins” absolutely classic. You are now living in Justin Trudeau’s Canada. Hopefully all the millennials are happy with their decisions.

He is an amazing bindass person who brings positivity and happiness.

Indians going abroad to study and support their life because they don’t want to put burden on their family \nThis is what they endure , these countries like USA and Canada just go by their fake branding \nThis is how the general public is like , pathetic and still treating other countries like shi*t \nJust imagine how the conditions would be before independence ?\nVery happy that India is doing good even after 45 trillion of loot by British and standing firm in top 5 \nPower to India ?? , power to Indians ??

That's why be happy in your own country rather than expecting acceptance from whites in thier own land.

Why do people in Canada love free food, see how he is happy after getting the pizza free, Canadian Economy is on a very low edge i think, i am damn sure this guy will share his sister or mother to bbc guy just for a free pizza..

Use the Indian payment system - BHIM UPI (NPCI).\nWill curtail the change problems. Be happy.

A lot of people in this country don’t realize how much of a gift it is to be born in Canada, as a son of two immigrants who left their country, their family, their beliefs only for me to have a better life here in Canada. It’s mind boggling for me how people born here haven’t taken advantage of the infinite amount of opportunities. I have not finished high school but have worked on bettering myself since the day I dropped out, this life is not for the weak minded it’s for the risk takers. If the homeless who lived here their entire life couldn’t make it happen for them and are not happy with their current situation I would strongly advice them to seek help for their mental health, change their bad habits, quit their addictions and if that doesn’t suffice maybe move to a third world country just to experience true homelessness, true hopelessness..

Same phenomenon is happening in the UK,some evil genius thought up of a plan to keep the landlords, owners of businesses and industries very happy

Frankly, India has No hassle free systems and processes: our air, soil and water are getting toxic because of pollution and contamination! Food adulteration and child exploitation are at the worst! Much heat and dust, stray dogs and monkey menace around! Plus, no regard for talent and merit! Youth is not happy

Allow me to give you a simple answer. We got betrayed by our politicians. The Liberal voters obviously saw something that we Conservatives did not. Hope your happy with your choice Liberals.

There's definitely a money threshold in Canada you NEED to make to .... have fun and live well. If you're a lifetime renter, or entry level worker.... it doesn't make sense. My family is established from previous happy decades. But even for us there is stagnation and living on savings (many family members moved back to EU, and I'm thinking of it as I'm fluent in many languages there). Imagine people starting new RIGHT NOW.... makes me sad that most Canadians will never had a backyard. Godspeed everyone.

Worst than a clown atleast he makes you happy!\n????

Canada 10 years back minimum wage people live happy He is spoiled life he makes harder and harder. I think it is to leave or call the election never gonna come back again.

I am not leaving, don't exaggerate! All you need for immigration - choose the right country at the right time. That's it. If you are not happy, move quetly wherever you want, not necessary to scream about it. You didn't scream about it whan you initially made a wrong choice. People make wrong choices all the time. ?

He wont, he will continue to blame sean fraser, and sean fraser will continue to forget he's had both the housing and immigration files for the last 8 years. Its all part of their plan, displace as many canadians as possible until we literally grab them by the collars and drag them out. Dont think for one second that things get any easier, powerful people want a one world government and by 2030, we are supposed to be happy we own nothing. Given the timeline, I would think we'd have to go through absolute hell between now and then, if I am happy that I own nothing. In the states they are making laws to make it legal for immigrants to squat and take peoples properties. Its truly insane whats going on in the west.

What a joke! It is out of control because of him. \nObviously it is important now because the election is coming, and he is trying to do damage control.\nTelling people what they want to hear and act all concerned now is a little too late. \nHe will continue destroying Canada if there is anything left by the time the election rolls around. \nIf he gets re-elected we are finished for sure.\n\nI have never voted conservative in my life but I now will be because of this party..and ndp.\nAm I happy about it…no. \nAnything is better than this bunch, and our choices are very limited. \nThey can’t even hold a conversation and work together/ compromise, find solutions that work.\n\nThe laws and system need to be changed to prevent this from ever happening again. You will never see talk about that though.\nI have very little faith in any party at this point. Stand strong ??

I'm so happy that within five short years, my once quiet middle-class-family neighbourhood has turned into high-density, international student rooming homes with a million cars, and 24/7 comings and goings. And no one is friendly. The new Canada thanks to Trudeau, coming soon to your street too.

turdeau is a flaming communist, his objective is to f...k everybody. YOU will own NOTHING, and You will be HAPPY.

Trudeau destroyed Canada. No one can afford a house. Vast immigration put too much pressure on infrastructure. Food is too expensive. No one is happy. And he’s clueless.

So a person from a developed country is mostly uneducated…. And this guy who is abusing is recording as well , his own abuse …. So not only uneducated but also severely suffers from lack of common sense …. Hmmm … and he is not doing this in a fit of rage , he actually thought this through so not only uneducated , lacks common sense , but severely unloved , never know the word empathy , mostly do not have his parents, or partner or children ( I hope he is not a father to not only a human but to any pet animals ) … must be living alone and the only …. Only light of happiness he gets is from abusing a stranger who is just doing his job …. And this uneducated, lacking common sense , unloved , pathetic piece of living being …targeted him! … I can imagine this pathetic soul living in his apartment alone for days and the only interaction he got is this so he recorded it , abused the guy and now is watching this video again again to the verge of his own end …. What a life he got !

As a non Canadian and non Muslim I keep trying to talk to my Canadian husband about moving to Mexico with me, I am already in here and I cannot stress enough about how much happier I am here, beautiful weather, cheaper and just better in so many ways. I’m so happy for you guys. I def encountered racism in Canada as a Latin girl, even tho Canada has a lot of different cultures.

Great video and hits a lot of real pain points\n\nI for one am leaving Canada, born and raised in Alberta, lived in BC most of my adult life. Sorry but see ya!\n\n1 I am tired of the weather -40 is a no no and most of our country hits it a few times a year. 52 years and this is my LAST winter. What a Relief!!\n2 I am tired of the MASSIVE greed in real estate that has been allowed to flourish. No way most of Gen Z will ever be able to own homes, if the are lucky they will get one passed down to them, shame you have to wait for a family member to DIE to own your own home :( Benchmark prices for home in Victoria 1.2 million, Vancouver 1.18 million, Kelowna 1 million. Very few people can afford a 6k+ a month mortgage. Shame on our govts that allowed this to happen.\n3 I am tired of the degradation of the family unit. Western morals have gone for crap, crime is up and people are happy to threaten each other. \n4 I am tired of the lack of available health care. All i can get is a 3 minute phone call after booking 4 weeks in advance??? wow \n5 I am tired of the people too, but in different ways. Way too much like USA now, people that pride themselves for ignorance, willfully ignoring science and safety or even common sense.\n6 I am tired of the governments, provincial and federal. ALL of the parties suck and will not do what is needed here. We are getting as bad as the USA. (which will soon tear itself apart!!)\n\nCanadians are a LOT more xenophobic than we might show. Most of us from the prairies (Boomers/GenX) never saw anything but seas of white people and native Americans. You probably never saw a foreigner maybe you knew someone that did... This is not the same country i grew up in. Good or bad I do not know, but it is way different!\n\nGrowth and thinking Growth will make a country flourish is a lie, and it destroys country after country. Canada is next. It populace will continue to grow with no room, no jobs, no hope.

Not happy in Canada? Move your ass and go somewhere else.

My ancestors got here a long time ago and I grew up believing that Canada is not only a place where so many could be happy and safe, but that people like me were better for it. I’m sorry to see you go — especially as I’m completely sympathetic to your last reason. Free Palestine. And I hope you come back.

Canada should be happy immigrants are going back.

Lol except we just increased out population by one million in just a month...youtubers are just losers spreading their misery. Everybody i know is doing fine, very happy..except millennial and gen-x internet addicts who never leave the house.

Tens of thousands of immigrants from Gaza are happy to move to Canada ?

Lovely n interesting ? Encouragingly encouraging experience. \nCheers to a happy stay?

If e father is not happy tat e attend tol off his child he shud hav bought his own jet to fly shame on them behavin lik barbarian

I think everyone is missing the point here. I Don’t support Israel’s retaliation, but I wondered why the Arab world has not taken in a single refugee. Poland didn’t condone Russia’s attack by taking in hundreds of thousands Ukrainian refugees. If Egypt, jordan, Quatar, to name the immediate Arab Neighbors would rally together to get the women and children out of harms way, surely the outcome would be better for these poor people. \n\nSadly this is not the case and it appears as though this conflict will never find a solution, as long as both parties are not able to set aside their millennia aged quarrel, acknowledge each other’s deep roots and belonging to the same land, and accept that they both come from the exact same bloodline. The exact same seed of a man named Abraham. Both parties need not to like or even tolerate each other, but they both need to respect each other’s right to co exist within that space. I’ve heard some disgusting vitriol from both sides, honestly. Both sides have and are behaving like animals. Infact animals are more civil, as their disputes are settled in a more humane manner, without the casualties within their communities. Yet, despite being created in God’s image with the ability of sophisticated communication, both sides are unable to get past their own hurt pride, at least for the sake of the innocent lives that have and continue to be lost on BOTH sides, to finally squash this matter once and for all.\n\nGrowing up I had a cousin . We both were the only Sons of our respective immediate families’, born to identical twin sisters, 3 months apart. From\nA young age everything was competition between us. Who ran faster, jumped higher, threw further. Every thing we did, and we spent a lot of time around each other, was constantly turned into a “who does it better”. This resulted in us usually throwing down as one of us, feeling like we may be on the losing end of any given task, would just get frustrated, and start soccer punching the other. And my cousin and I from the time were off the diary to the day we both matured, would THROW down. We would literally just start throwing punches at each other, it was honestly impressive how we both would manage to land equal amount of hits to look like literal bloody hell, and guess what, even those fights became competition as even our dads would throw money with the others pitching for their favourite. Fortunately, our moms, the only adults in the our community, looking back, people would just pick a side and watch as go at each other, than pull us off each other, would come stomping out of the house grab each one of us by our ears, gives us a good smack in the back our heads and sit us down, look each one of us straight in the eye, and say something like, “cut it out, you two are family, more brothers than cousins” they would demand that we both go hug it out, have a bath, if we managed to do that peacefully then we were allowed to partake in dessert that evening or allowed to stay up a little later watching tv, or whatever . My point with this overtly personal analogy is that both the Palestinian and the Israeli sides should be dragged off each there by their figurative ears pulled, sat down, scolded and reminded of their ancestrial ties to each other and to the very same land. \n\nBe honest with yourselves, some how amongst all this hate, vitriol, unnecessary death of innocent lives, are you, and those you rally with be truly ok with your opposing side coexisting harmoniously beside each other? If the answer to this question is no, the other side can not have any claim to this land and needs to be removed to god knows where, if not off the earth all together then it’s your people, not mine, that are doomed. We’ll still be chilling in North America, horrified at the unfolding events but chilling nonetheless. Although it somehow claims to not be doing so, the actions of Israel demonstrate a gruelling callousness towards Palestinian life or right to life, and the staunch calls of the constant pro Palestine protests, calling for the eradication of Israel, none absent of a deep, hate and disgust towards the Jewish people. Both are in need of serious internal reform. Honestly as a complete outsider, SHAME ON BOTH OF YOU. I don’t care who started it, or who said or did what, at this point it is imperil that this end immediately. And as an outsider, I think it’s is important that pressure be applied to both sides to put their weapons down. I don’t recall the last time anyone even mention the Israeli hostages, putting any pressure on Hamas to do the one thing that would definitely appease the Israelis. In the same breathe, Israel needs to be further pressured to stop being so trigger happy and lay off of it. \n\nI can only hope, I guess. In the meantime i should really refrain from ranting on YouTube.

Canada is a joke now, trying so hard to be a 51st state. We've got all the crime and all the tent cities to compete with the very greatest American cities. Our tiny little towns now have homeless folks and I fear the day I become homeless.\n\nWe've lost our honour. We've sold out to corporations. We're intentionally pushing people out of their homes so the rich may get richer. And our Cuban PM, Justin Castro, is alright with it. He's also happy providing immigrants with subsidized housing while born-and-bred Canadians suffer. Heck, 'everyday young people' in their 20s can't even envision owning a home unless they come from a wealthy family or their parents die and leave the family home to them. They're better off buying an RV but even those cost what a house SHOULD cost.\n\nThis is not the Canada I was born in. It's a total effing disaster. The only saving grace for me is that I brought no children into this mess and I really hope to be dead before Xmas if I don't find a job. Being as I'm a coward and my doctor won't euthanize me (I asked), I figure a hunger strike is the was to go unless I can find a high enough cliff. There's nothing in Canada to be proud of or get excited about. Nothing. No future.

Any Canadians not happy should move. Grass always looks greener on other side of fence.
