''The progressive woke left destroys everything they touch.''...Everything, in every nation.

I know some peeps who moved to Canada got lump sum from gov, didn't pay their rent, collected monthly cheques for the 3 kids and after 10 months left the apartment and put a down payment on a house !!! messed up !!!

I left 7 yrs ago. Every time I come back and visit I realise that I made the right decision

My parents left their home country because of economic uncertainty and growing crime issues. They came to Canada and succeeded, and allowed me to succeed. I'm unsure, now, if I can have the same for my kids. The economic uncertainty and growing crime are real concerns. Young people don't have the same opportunities and face serious financial headwinds. So I'm in the same boat, researching what places in the world can give my kids the best leg up in the world.

I left Canada in 2017. Its too expensive. Taxes way too high. Trade barriers between provinces inside the same country? Seriously?

@ 9:48 , “10 great things living in Canada and 10 not so great things living in Canada….”\n\nYour internal conflict is palpable. YouTuber Andrew Henderson , “ The Nomad Capitalist “ experienced the same feelings but left Midwest USA over a decade ago. His motto, “ Go Where You’re Treated Best” is his personal guiding principle as well as his business mantra. Unfortunately for you, Henderson’s service is tailored for wealthy clients with 7-8 digit assets.

The left liberals alongwith their islamic allies are killing Canada

Our country has been destroyed by the past 8 years of the liberal government and the mass immigration. I too am leaving because it makes me so sick to see whats happening. Mass immigration especially 90% from India alone. I have met so many who are going to small places in Canada as they get their PR card faster. \nThen the idiots in our government think its ok for them to bring all their families. I'm sorry you should not have the right to bring your elderly 75yr -90 yr old parents who have not paid one dime in taxes and expect the rest of Canada to pay for all their medical bills etc. Absolutely ridiculous. Crime has went up and 99% of the crime is from immigrants yet the far left and CBC try to hide it.Trudeau and his clan should all be locked up in Jail. Great video and so true.

If I didn't have family and other obligations in Ontario I would have left a long time ago and never returned. My biggest issue is that the culture as eroded so much that there is no sense of community anymore. Everyone seems to be competing with each other at all times. Trying to make friends in North America as a whole is brutal. Every time I go abroad it is very refreshing to take part in cultures where people actually look out for one another. When I come back to Canada I always feel starved of what is important in life.

Yeahh. I am with you o that!\nI too have left, must say now forsightedly, 20 years ago. Canada used to be the most magnificent country on the planet. But that's all gone now. All what's still renains deep in my heart are the endless Alberta blue skies.

Be brave our Kyïv sister !!! We left Ukraine 5 days before the war started in February 2022… we stayed in Portugal for 2 years and now we are in my family’s home in the USA preparing to return to Portugal ??!! We hope you are happy in your journey and are here to support you with love ! Slava Ukraina !??

Already left when my car was stolen at a gun point and police refused to press charges since the culprit is a minor.\n\nFJT

I left 1999 and returned 2223!!! OMG! It sucks! This is not the Canada I know. I'm here for my son who is going thru cancer treatment. He never wanted to leave Canada. My other son left for Australia & my daughter in Boston. They will never return!!!1 in 5 ....no fam. docs. Emergency is a nightmare. Most docs are young immigrants who are in meds to fulfill family dreams....dismissive, perfunctory, no critical thought processes etc. Housing sky high....I tell everyone to leave!!!!!

That what you get when the left is in charge

I left Canada 3 days after graduating from Queen's. It was a s**t show then and it is even worse now. The top down socialist government lead by comrade Trudeau has destroyed EVERYTHING our ancestors built together.

Some are yapping, they must not come to Europe!\nIt's NATO, EU, USA, UK... who sell weaponeries, supported decades of war in the middle east, brought their fake democracy and always left it ruined, worse than before... Now these mfs say we've no obligations toward them, they're muslims!\nDo you think they enjoy coming their, playing with their life and their family's, leaving their motherlad destroyed and looted by the west. Name one thing good USA has done so far being a world super power except wars and chaos ???

Canada isn’t a free country compared to the United States where we still have freedom of all speech and the right to bear arms. If the United States goes any further left I will leave. Might be by the end of the year.

Afer one Canadian left , 100 india students will come here.

All VICE does is LIE.. they've been doing it for years now.. its common sense to why this happened.. they were and are being invaded. Literelly flipping their lives upside down and the left dont care one bit.. blows my mind. It needs to happen to people all on the left. they need to have someone taken from them by all these illegal people around up to no good. Its almost like the left has had their bodies taken over all around the world in the western countries at least.. thats how much it makes no sense to me at all.

This is what the powerful countries politicians has made of the world and then they ask why ppl want take refuge in Europe? You making me laugh if you have left ppl living peacefully in their home land if you haven't destroyed robbed their goods ... Now nothing will stop them from coming to get back their right to live as you give ur self right to live better then others

Like Elon said, these are all the side effects of the woke mind virus...in short, far left liberal mindset!

Left Canada for Asia 7 years ago and it was the best decision ever.. I'm never moving back. Canada and the US are in a decline... I think it won't be anytime soon that they recover.

So if u have left Canada then we are stuck paying for Ukraine? ??‍♂️ \nThought Ukrainian Canadian like your self would help us to pay for ukrain ??‍♂️\nPlus u look close to 40 plus then 33/yo \n\nCanada has problems but we need to face it and try to fix insted of running away and talk ? online to get validation \nChristia feeeland is Ukrainian Canadian \nI hope she leaves us as well and move with you so I can keep my money here insted of sending it to ukrain ?\n\nGood luck with your life somewhere \nStop talking ? about Canada \nEven with problems still a decent place \n\nI am immigrant like yourself 30 plus years but I will lay my life for this country , myself is not happy about this current situation but will face it and will hold the line ?

I agree with you leaving. I am a 3rd generation retired Canadian who used to be proud to be so. Now I am not, in fact I am embarrassed to say I am Canadian as it is nothing to be proud of. I think of how good things were in the 70's and 80's while I was young and now how bad things are today and it is truly depressing. Back then if you are willing to work, you could make a decent living, buy a car, a house and raise a family - today, good luck with that. The people in the west have had no say in the faulty governments we have had as Ontario and Quebec have put the final nails in our coffin when they elected that buffoon JT for a third consecutive term and then the NDP kisses his butt to join up and torture us more when most sane Canadians did not ask for this. JT is truly an embarrassment for this country although the US is in step with comatose Joe. I feel sorry for the kids and many others that are trying to survive, make a living and buy houses. Reverse discrimination has been at play for 20 years or so but is really out of control these days when a white Canadian kid that has got 5 yr honours degree in University has trouble finding a job today because you are the wrong colour. Our national anthem was changed a number of years back for no good reason. Immigrants are being imported by this idiot called our PM and handed out living accommodations, jobs and our hard earned $$ that he stole from us while our own people fall deeper into the quagmire. Many of these immigrants are bringing their hatreds and views with them to are country and are causing chaos. We are heavily taxed for driving our cars and heating our houses on FALSE pretenses with the govt saying it is to save the world - nice try - BS. The government and schools are pushing the alphabet children protocol per the WEF. These are just a few things that are wrong with this country that is sinking quicker than the Titanic. Everything this country stood for is now gone. It is so obvious to anyone that doesn't consume the main stream medias programming what is going on here (and when you do look at it you see how ridiculous what they report, how they report, they are no longer reporters but merely reading the scripts they have been handed by the powers that be) , however there are far too many people with their faces in their phones that are zombies today which is what the governments want. Good luck to you and anyone else left that is sane. Unfortunately too many people are simply programmed beyond repair and will continue to keep their faces buried in their phones, consume the garbage the main stream media is pushing on behalf of the powers that be and continue to vote to keep the same idiots in power.

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.

According to official German statistics, there were only four citizenship categories in 2023 that left Germany in larger numbers than those that moved to Germany. \n\nGerman citizens as the largest group, followed by a couple of thousands Croats, and a smaller number of Danes and Lithuanians. \n\nThe number of people moving to Germany was greater than the number of those who left in all other citizenship categories.

Hi Guys,\n\nI did live in Canada for 10 years and I left because of the cost of living.\nI had my own plumbing company and before I left I closed down my business and worked for a plumbing company full time and they paid me $42/h\nAlso my wife was making $32/h\n\nWe made decent money But Trudeau took half of it.\nMy car insurance was $4700 per year, rent for a bungalow just the top floor (3 bed 1 bath) $2400 in Calgary plus utilities plus we had another family renting basement, bungalow like apartment building.\n\nIt’s not worth it, I am a plumber and gas fitter (red seal) well educated individual with 20 plus year experience and my wife is social worker with 20 year experience and we both speak fluent and English. Most people thought that we were Canadian even though English not our first language\n\nTrudeau doesn’t want experienced and educated people.\nCanada is a rip off

Swipes left.. not interested

I left Canada 20 years ago. The only thing I missed about Canada is Cantonese cuisine. \nCanada has all the land and natural resources, yet its government managed to f**k it up.\nPolitically and economically Canada is a slave of the mafia country down south.

question. did you vote left often aka liberals/ndp?

i left i now live in mexico and paraguay mexico is home base for now

Such a lovely and genuine woman you are. I, too, left my home country, as my parents left Lithuania, to build a new life in America. While it saddens me to be away from my roots, I've found a better life here in Phuket, Thailand. I know you've visited here a couple of times, and I can’t help but wonder if you’ll return to the Land of Smiles to share your special smile and wonderful character. Wishing you all the best on your new journey, wherever it may take you

I just stumbled across this video. This is my first viewing of one of your videos and it was sad and painful to watch. I was born in Canada to immigrant parents. I grew up on a farm in Alberta. Listening to your memories of growing up resinated with me as that was my experience as well. Fast forward to today, my husband and I left Canada in 2022 and are currently in Mexico. We have thought about a return to Canada but the reports really don't give us hope. We will likely move again someday, but Canada isn't high on that list until something changes. I will look forward to seeing where you have chosen. Thank you for the honesty in this view.

It’s crazy. I know so many ppl who have moved to Canada from abroad and left because they realize they’ve been lied to about the opportunities here. Yet, people still spill into Canada maybe they see a mark country?

Sad! I left decades ago, all the homelessness, drugs, cost of living, looking back, those were golden era when I lived there.

Well from the comments hopefully all the capitalist and opportunists will leave and then whoever’s left can actually fix things since most of the conservative opposition is leaving for greener pastures?

Dear Alina ; Fret not about this choice. I left Canada (for Cambodia)a year ago and I am happy that I did. The idea that Canada is one of the best countries in the world is just a myth. Go with a light heart and discover something better!

I was in Canada in 2022 for some while because of the country's positive reputation but left again quickly because I didn't want to be part of that housing crisis and infrastructure problems.

First of all, Canadians are paying a high price because of this government that has been ruining the country for the past 10 years. Besides that, many serious people have given everything in their lives to legalize their status in Canada, through studies and work over the past few years, and now they are having to experience total scarcity in this cold country, without being able to return to their home countries under reasonable conditions since they have already left everything behind. And the Canadian propaganda continues to be strong, attracting immigrants from various continents. ??‍♂️

After 30 years as a corporate expat and digital nomad, I planned to retire abroad and did the same exploration. But during the pandemic, I started a US business requiring my presence and had to rethink my plan. Given tax implications, I decided to split my time between two countries. I close my business and travel 3 months twice a year, keeping my low-cost live/workspace in Chicago as a home base. That way, I don’t need to deal with residency visas, foreign taxes and other issues I might face if I left permanently.

Now the truth: She consistently voted far left, she championed woke, embraced feminism. She created all the policies that has made this country by her own measure - uninhabitable.

Europe is most Tribalist society i have ever came accross. It's just enclosed box of narrow mindedness. How hard it to have multiple languages even when most people are bilingual etc. They fear about their homogeneous culture is nothing more than copy pasta of U.S.A. They happily go for Hollywood but somehow Right wing and left wing fascism borns out of feeling threatened about culture.

Left wing/socialist ideology kills anything it touches.

We just left Canada 2 weeks ago. Now we’re in the US. Canada has gotten worse for the last few years or decades according to some. When we applied for Canada, all the prosperity was promising. It was like second or third option behind the US and UK. And now, after 7 years, we have decided to really act and do what’s best for our family and the future of our kids. The main reasons why we left Canada, it’s the high and doubled taxes, the very slow healthcare, you get to start to zero despite your decades of managerial experience, they don’t honor your diploma cuz they have their own standard even if your education or work is US standard, the housing and rentals are skyrocketing. Imagine if the rentals are increasing every year by $50-150 is insane. It’s just so inhumane. Back in my birth country in the Philippines, if you’re poor or low income family..the government don’t tax you. You get a high percentage of healthcare assistance and you also get some free social services including monthly allowance from the national government and another separate assistance from the local government. Canada is beautiful if you have money with all the good and kind people around, but the expenses, it’s gonna kill your pocket.

When like nearly every country in the world is full, yeah it sucks. The only thing left is to fight for what you believe in you're own country, rather then fleeing. Life's tough, you don't live forever, don't listen to the cowards.

We have just left the UK for SEA for much the same reasons as you.

I left Canada over 14 years ago and it was the best decision I ever made. Wow what a joke of a video.

What took you so long to leave Cucknada...I left Mexifornia for SE Asia 25 years ago when the woke writing was already on the wall!

I came to Vancouver to pursue a postgraduate accounting degree from UBC Sauder School of Business and worked with Grant Thornton & PwC after graduating. On Dec 31, 2023 I also left for my home country at the age of 33. You need a change, Go for it !!

My money left Canada years ago. I stay for the free stuff.
