Yup, right at 3:35, I see Canada has Tyrone syndrome too. Sad.

Canada is great if you're young. But if you're older and your health has inevitably started to decline, you don't want to live there. The healthcare waitlists could kill you.

Sorry for advising, come to Russia... Especially the same mid or east Russia... It's like Canada in 1970...

Sorry to say, Canada is joke ?

Where is the justice for Christ sakes. This individual is not even attempting to pay anything why is it always the homeowner that gets screwed this man and his wife used a condo as an investment if this young lady cannot make her payments she should leave and make arrangements on making the payments that you owe why is that Canada always protects the criminals but not the victim

if you think Canada has no future, imagine Third World countries... an indicator the whole World is fkcd

Waaa waaa , waaa. I bet you voted for the Canada you have. FEEL NO SYMPATHY FOR PEOPLE LIKE YOU

Good luck and wish you all the best! Agree to all you said. I am staying in Canada, but will travel lot more to see other places in the world.

I am not advocating for illegal immigrants in Either country... \nBut.. \nAs, wasn't it in 2022 that New York City was sending taxis & buses of immigrants sent to it from the southern states that it could no longer handle ???... \nI believe yes.. \n\nCan't help but think lots have found Canada might be welcoming but its Expensive & we also don't have enough housing... plus we get very cold everywhere for apx 5-7 months of the year.

I landed Canada 30 years ago. I love my country CANADA . Great country ❤. Don’t be too negative. Everyone has their choice . Wish you good luck

I am sorry you fell this way I mean Canada is NOT a great country to live in.

Canada is a diverse country, home to people from many different backgrounds. While the First Nations, Métis, and Inuit are the original inhabitants of this land, today, many other communities contribute significantly to the nation’s economy and culture.\n\nFor instance, the Indian diaspora in Canada has brought substantial economic benefits, contributing billions of dollars through various sectors, including technology, healthcare, and education. Each community, whether of Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi, African, East Asian, or European descent, plays a vital role in the fabric of Canadian society. It’s crucial to recognize and appreciate the unique contributions of all these groups rather than comparing them in a divisive manner.\n\nHowever, there have been some concerns regarding certain international students and individuals from various backgrounds. A portion of these students may not be enrolled in programs that lead to strong career prospects or that significantly benefit Canada’s economy in the long run. Additionally, issues have been raised about unruly behavior, including playing loud music and creating disturbances, which can affect the peace and quiet of local communities. This behavior isn’t limited to one group; individuals from various communities, including White Canadians, have sometimes contributed to these challenges. Moreover, some students and individuals have brought political issues from their home countries into Canada, leading to protests that disrupt the harmony here.\n\nWhile it’s important to address these concerns, we must do so in a way that promotes understanding and respects the contributions of all communities. Fostering unity is essential in celebrating the multicultural strength of Canada.

Moved to Canada from China 8 years ago, very said to see the status of this country right now. Having been following your channel for a few years, also feel very sad that you will leave. hope that you could visit Toronto again.

FYI THERE ARE 1.4 BILLION INDIANS IN India. India has a land size of 1/3 the size of Canada. However Canada still can't handle 40 million people compared to 1.4 billion Indians. So this world is making people suffer just because India always had more number of people. India & Africa is one of the oldest countries in this world. Moreover there are a lot of Africans in Canada. Why don't we see news of many africans are in Canada. Or there are many asians in Canada who are not from India. Cause this is just racism towards India. First they take our money through their racist immigration programs. Indians work harder than any of the races in Canada. Then your butchering our people because it's to easy to get away by being racist to a brown just because we are so many.

46k divided by 4 is 11.5k per year. Meaning her rent was about 1k a month….? I don’t believe her rent was a 1k a month for the last 4 years? I’m thinking there was an increase that made it difficult for her to pay a full amount. However, she’s still in the wrong for all that back pay. He doesn’t seem all that innocent either but that’s Canada for you now. Everyone is getting screwed by the economy, which is the governments fault.

Welcome to Canada

CANADA ????

Find me a first world naton that hasnt been losing pace to poor countries. Resource are limited and more people are accessing it. Its not hard to understand. Freetrade without gaurdrails gets you here.\n\nTo those talking about moving abroad for better cost of living, duh. Its always been cheaper to go abroad. But ask someone in paraguay, russia, philipines if they have the life they have here in canada. They will typically tell you know. \n\nYour expat enclaves are not a reflection of typical local life.\n\nLeave and find out for yourself. I welcome you back to reality.

Hmm, that leaf on the Canadian flag is very similar to the marijuana leaf ?, the only difference is that marijuana is green, perhaps that is the source of all the problems that affect Canada.

Canada is becoming a human dumping ground, for human waste from around the world.

'They're going to come anyway...'\n\nSo Canada does not have border controls anymore?

You are not leaving Canada but rather Canada left you. The Canada you knew and loved is history. I am going to Ukraine where I hope to make a difference, just like the starfish on the beach story. Good luck to you.

Good luck finding the utopia you are searching for. It doesn't exist. Russia should be good for you as you come from there originally. Canada will not miss a person who does not appreciate it.

Even western Ukraine looks like a better option to live rather than Canada !

Canada has became terrorist safe house... all sort of gamler drug lords dreaded wanted criminals gets to Canada. Plus 9 years of Trudeau government gives unbearable prices of food houses car thefts... honestly speaking Canada doesn't look first world country in many parts

This is the 3rd or 4 th v logger telling about leaving Canada or even leaving the youtube,i think its just a trend to bring more views,and if you were really uncomfortable living in such beautiful country Canada,you could have left long time ago and have moved back to your ancestral country Ukrine!!!

Thanks for sharing your decisions on your move I do wish you all the best moving forward, I've been following the channel for some time now. \n\nWhen you mention about Hasting Street at 3:20, I was just thinking... where did I hear that street? Now memory came back to me when I was in Vancouver for 3 days and enjoyed my time over Canada in 2015 for a concert, Canada was the first country I've visited outside of the United States I'll never for get it the people where amazing very polite there was a moment in my life that I wanted to move to Canada now thinking over my decision after some years later I'm glad I didn't. I can't believe how bad it has gotten I'm now sure its gotten worse now. Respect your decision I glad to see your doing it, I would love to experience life for us... we only live once it'll be amazing for anyone do what you are doing, I have been thinking of going over doing content about traveling because it is about the journey and if for some reason If I like then.... go for it! Can't wait for more to come up, Cheers to you!

There will be few places on this rock that will be as good as Canada when the SHTF.

If you can move to the US, do so. While there is tension down here, it is by far the freest nation. Look at Europe, they're going down the fascist route, same with Australia, NZ. And Canada unfortunately is entering that realm whereby your rights are going to be extinguished. Even with a change of government, when you are beholden to an inbred, foreign crown, it gets harder and harder. South America is no different. Don't kid yourselves, places like Costa Rica sound like an idyllic place but there is crime, poverty, nasty insects. Moscow on the other hand is not bad, it's like the 1980s in the US there, sure the infrastructure is sub par and they do have crime but aside from the proxy war going on, it's an option if you are of Russian decent. Your best bet is still the US, if you can wait the years, pay all the fees, jump through all the hoops, unless of course you are an illegal, non-white and a potential Democrat voter.

Hi Alina ? I'm from a 3rd world country willing to relocate since few years and still trying and praying.\nI know Canada isn't the right place for everyone ? and if I want to advise anyone about Canada is that:\nIt'll very soon going to lose it's Passport ? value and this includes the USA, Australia, NZ, and some other Large Landmass countries (Smaller countries manage themselves better). \nYou should think about getting another citizenship that'll be your future Home ? \nI guess you like East Asia and Eastern Europe ?❓ But still love to see you relocating soon.\n\nI wish you the Best of Luck ? \nGod Bless You ?

Canada, prior to the Trudeau regime was PEACEFUL, PROSPEROUS, and PLEASANT. Canada, since 2015 has declined under unintelligent, communistic, & extremely corrupt leadership. What was a successful Democratic nation - is now 3rd world.

I left Canada in 2000 for an attractive job opportunity in Belgium. I had been workng in Canada for 20 yrs at that time and all of my education was completed in Canada. I did not leave Canada due to any major dissatisfaction with the country, but rather a professional opporunity that arose and the chance to experience Europe as a resident rather than a tourist. I never expected to stay in Europe long term, but one job led to another and I stayed on in Belgium until 2017 when I moved to Spain for my (semi-)retirement. Although I rented out the condo I owned in Canada from 2000-2022, after 5 years living in Spain, I decided I am not moving back to live in Canada and sold it. I have no regrets having left Canada when I did, nor do I regret my move from Belgium to Spain. I still visit Canada about once a year to visit family and friends, but a move back to my homeland is not something I would now seriously consider. \n\nGood luck with your move and settlement in your new home, wherever that is!

My research, cause a lot of us have thought the same thing, is that it is not much better around the world. Much of the same issues that are destroying Canada are global and although some countries do it marginally better it is the same most other places. Don't get me wrong I wish you luck and the best but I just don't believe the grass is much greener elsewhere.

Nope, Canadá has not been your home for the last 28 years, you're definitely Canadian, that's all, you're not Ukrainian, Canada is your native country.

I currently am considering Germany as work in Canada is horrible for medical educated personnel. Was looking at Italy, Spain, Poland, and Sweden. Canada is hitting me up for a lot of taxes Federal , Provincial, and Municipal. I also am taxed by the USA for taxes for my real estate holdings, and get taxed by Canada for homes I inherited from my elderly uncle’s. I literally rent my homes to my cousins in Tacoma and Kansas as rental rates are unaffordable. I see house values go up but taxes are there to make it impossible to support the valuation. But enough about my tax problems, I hope you can take your journey over there and report what it’s really like?

Canada is not safe for any immigrant, but brown people in general get targeted way more.

The truth is that your eyes have been opened by your travels. It's not so much about Canada having changed but more about you having changed.

im lucky even tho im broke, im doing okay compared to most Canadians... I ive in Burnaby a city next to Vancouver. I pay 2050 for a 2 bedroom & 2 bathroom condo, I split the cost with a longtime friend I only make 19hr but I can afford the $1050 rent and my car insurance is only $95. If I were to look for a rental today I probably wouldnt be able to... have to maybe live in my car or move out of this city. All I know is Vancouver so that would be really tough for me.... it sucks what Canada is like in the 2020s..... too much bs

I love this video, very honest and accurate. We all LOVE Canada. My wife and I live in Penticton, we are going to sell our home and move to Thailand,, I feel the same as you do, love Canada, but not what has happened to Canada

Canada has been like these for long time, not perfect, but not many places on this planet better than Canada…. \n\nYou have more qualities than most of celebrities, hope you good luck in your next endeavour…..

I think it's good that we run this kind of story. Most landlords especially for condos like this one in Toronto, are owned by regular folks who still work a job and have budgets and families. They aren't greedy, they aren't big corporations; they're just people who bought investment properties and want to rent them out for a price. Canada needs landlords because not every can or even wants to buy real estate.\n\nWhen you see stories like this, which I think are outliers, they're good reminders that being a landlord is risky and income properties don't print money. It's also a reminder to good tenants (which are most tenants) that your landlord isn't being paranoid when they ask for references, proof of income, etc. They would rather scare you off then be saddled with a non-paying, non-leaving tenant (rare as they may be) and they don't know you (and you don't know them).

If Trudeau would leave to join officially the WEF with Freeland after the election of Pierre Poilievre as our new Prime Minister of Canada , would you consider staying here in Canada?

Great decision! I totally understand you. Canada is dead.

Nobody speaks up, but it's the truth. Canada use to be a squeaky clean country and well-respected around the world. Use to be in the top 5 of best places to live. Now it's not even in the top ten. Toronto as large as it is, use to be a very clean city compared to other cities in the States during Mayor Art Eggleton's day. Now it's fallen by the wayside. There are more homeless than homes. Less jobs than before and at the same time prices for everyday items have risen. Absolutely ridiculous. Somebody up there is not doing their job. We gave the Liberals too much power and they have become complacent. Time for new leadership.

Trudeau explaining this idiot. From a fired snowboard instructor, drama teacher to somehow a communist leader of a canada who is running the country into the ground \ni'm Canadian and canada is a awful place to live high tax crime is up. refugees all over the place you need a gun now in Toronto or Vancouver

Canada has always had great potential, BUT that is and has been under attack and is eroding quickly. No country can do what we are doing and remain organized and plentiful like it used to be. Sorry to say woke and cultural hijacking will be the demise of this country. Lately we do not expect people to be Canadian when they come here and they bring their garbage with them and turn it into what they left and I say to anyone, prove me wrong.

Still plenty of opportunities in Canada? I watched and saw more than a few vloggers like yourself wanting to leave Canada. A few stated costs of living and shrinking opportunities. If you are a person with a good job where you are living, I would not encourage him/her to migrate to Canada. It used to be a great country, but not so much now, with slowly in decline; Neoliberalism and Trudeau and gov. has ruined it.

Canada has become a broken democratic version of Russian Federation, sad but true

Nice video! I totally understand your feelings, I’m an immigrant in Canada and have been living here for almost a decade but unfortunately my wife and I are planning to go back to our country. We think Canada is going to the wrong direction and is no longer a nice and safe place to raise our kid.?

I would choose Mexico over Canada any day. Canada has gone full blown bat shit crazy.
