I'm surprised you didn't mention Alberta's rat population of Zero \n\nIf you want to move to a place in this world with no rats, you either have to move to the Arctic, Antarctica, or Alberta

Hello\ndo we still need to fill IMM 5257 i.e Application form and IMM 5645 i.e family information form ??? Please guide. Also if date of birth of parents of applicants is not known.. what to mention...Unknown or what ??? I am following your video step by step. its very informative and am very hopeful.

Hard to comprehend the journey some of these people are on. Not only finding their way to the uS illegally but even making it to Canada illegally. Not to mention the countries before. Tens of Thousands of kilometers. The trauma they must have suffered to be this motivated I can't even imagine.

So when Democratic NY mayor is giving tickets to send it’s not even mentioned but the Texan or Florida republicans do it…it’s the main news…why are we ok with this level of hypocrisy?

As IF this course of action is their right! Where do they get the balls? Oh yea, the current fools in office. This admin is a Fn joke all around, from an economy that has paralyzed households and now banks to the southern border just to mention a few, wont even get into the military blunders and money sent abroad. All they have to do is fire shots into the air or for sure at minimum deploy CS gas or something!! This nation is always soft as hell and lives in an anemic economy at best under Dems, fact.

Why not mention that the mayor of New York is supplying the ride to the border to break the law. In Canada, we have an imagination policy. How about the USA fixing your problem.

The story neglects to mention that the ‘safe third country’ agreement is a problem because a Superior Court Judge ruled the US is not a safe country for detainees. The Court found that in US custody, detainees are subject to cruel and usual punishment, and sending them back to America would violate their basic rights under Canadian law. It was overturned on appeal from the Government, but is now being reviewed by the Supreme Court of Canada.

Man I'm Latin but I don't think it's right were letting in millions of immigrants. I'm hearing a lot of Hispanic people saying the same exact thing. Plus cartels are in charge of the border they don't mention this on the media.

hi, my brother is farmer so what should I mention in section of company or employer

Sad to say everything you have described is almost exactly the same here in the US, except for the taxes and the fact that there are some cool places to visit. Oh and the Southern part of the country is warm. Other than that everything else you mentioned is exactly the same, unfortunately.

Wow thanks for making this video. I totally agree with your pointe mentioned in the video. The gov regulations are too much. Here in Montréal they ticket people on any thing, it’s not cool at all, you feel abused financially on top of it with all the imposed taxes, real estate are becoming very expensive to buy. You ask yourself eventually not even the weather helps. Sun and beaches are blessings

I wanna give my two cents as a Jamaican who lived in Canada,Germany and the us for me i wanna see the us is better interms of making money. It's better to get around , open business, hustle it's have that go-getter capitalistic mentality, Canada and Germany are similar. In Germany its haaaard to get anything done and bureaucracy will end you. Canada is a bit better and less bureaucratic. The us is a play ground filled with variety of everything and did I mention how easy it is to make money. Canada and Germany habe similar health system but in Germany things get done quickly, the us system is good if you have money. Racism is in all three but Germany and Canada are kinda not in your face, Americans will be in your face though, to me i prefer the america racism at least i know who to be aware of but in CA and ger you don't know who your enemies are because they will smile with you while not liking you. For kids it's like this , i would raise my kid in Germany because they have the kids are so well mannered and well behaved but i will let them experience american high school . Canada is waaay more peaceful , Germany cleaner. The bottom line is if you are a young ambitious Person the us is for you, but to retire I'll choose Canada but let my kids grow in Germany.

I hate sikh people becoz once a sikh visited padmanabha temple he refuse to take off his turban. He was so rude. Becoz of security reason every one should follow the rules and regulation. I hate them with a great passion. I'm so happy to see this video. Most of ma frnds studying Canada mentioned about punjabis as stupid people.

You may want to research firearms before posting such stupidity. Forgot to mention in Canada under the liberal government crimes and murders using firearms have gone up each year. This is mainly due to the fact that the ignorant supporters of the liberal government and the Is liberal government have been going after law abiding Canadian Firearms owners instead of criminals. In Canada you have a much better chance of running into the Prime Minister wearing racist black face then you would being victimized by a licensed Firearms owner.

Amazing video! keep it up. I hope next time when you talk about the jobs in Canada mention the foreign worker's issues. especially with the time frame. if you came to Canada on an LMIA program with a close work permit. if you aren't lucky enough to find a good employer to sponsor you; YOU ARE SCREWED! IRCC is not reliable on anything. ONE MORE THING! based on my experience > Never ever trust a lawyer they are salespeople who care only about the money and if your application is refused they will just say sorry!

If i am applying only for parents. So , do i need to Mention yes where they ask do your children accompany you in canada ?

You forgot to mention one more thing. Our prime minister has a stick up his ass. ?

I would say another reason is the political instability, the near dictator fashion tools the pm uses to fight any kind of opposition. Like blocking opposing peoples bank accounts, forcing fund raising companies not to pay out, controlling the media to lie about the opposition. Now, I understand if you dont mention it if you are not citizens, or even if you are, you could get in a lot of trouble.

Noticed your political bias was evident, you could work for CNN... You also did not mention that if you upset your dictator, even if you are peaceful and break no law, he will take away your license that ends your career and every cent in your bank account. And btw, most of Canadians resent the Montreal french that take taxes from the commoners to support Montreal's lifestyle spending.

We applied for visitor visa in October ,but got rejected in December 2022. My daughter is doing graduation from McGill University. reason for rejection was mentioned as we have strong ties in canada.we again applied in January and specified that we are going to attend graduation ceremony of our daughter. What are the chances of approval this time?

You forgot to mention that taxation is theft.

I was born in Canada, and lived to see the change from traditional values to this mess...\n\n1 - homelessness\nthe rents and other things went up, and welfare does nt match it. even minimum wage does nt cover it in some cases, \nit s a given that you will finish on the sidewalk, and that does that many will turn to drinking and drugs.\nit will not last long however, as winter comes and there are nt enough shelters, so they conveniently die.\nyou could invest billions, it will not help if you have bad management, you have to dig deeper...\n\n2 - racism\nit s a bit of a backward country in that sense, many rural areas were very late in receiving immigrants,\nso they re not used to see diversity, unlike the US lets say, so there are parts of the country where acceptation\nwill be low, they will discriminate and gossip for sure, but it s more backward as it is racism.\nin time, when they get to know you, it goes away, and they realise how dumb they were.\nI live in Quebec, and you can blame feminism for that, they see Muslims as a symbol of patriarchy and feel threatened.\n\n3 - medical\nit s been like that since about the 90s, again, bad management made the system crash for some reason.\nI admit that I m not sure of what happened exactly there, not enough doctors for sure.\nmaybe it has to do with income, as they can get more revenue in the US or elsewhere.\nI suspect that hospitals s management - administration is too slow and crowded, but I m no expert.\n\n4 - technology\nyeah, well, it s expensive here, cell contracts, internet, probably because of distance, but I suspect\nthat we re being cheated a little too, and since again, we re a bit backward, we re used to the old methods.\nwe re not fast to adopt new trends or fashion either, it s very traditional here mostly.\n\n5 - taxes\nwe have federal and provincial taxes, plus purchase taxes, so yeah, we pay a lot of them.\nexactly, it can vary from 30 - 60% for sure, overtime does nt pay that much, 2 nd jobs can build you a big bill.\nyou re better to save on expenses than trying to earn more, you have to be cheap.\n\n6 - Canadian experience\nI m born here, but I heard of many stories about immigrants s credentials not fitting the local standards.\nin some cases, it sounds ridiculous, and closed minded, not accepting outside concepts and ideas.\nI did nt know about speaking English, but I sure know about French in Quebec...\nhere, it s very insecure about the language, almost paranoid, without speaking French, you will have many troubles.\nagain, it s mostly about bad management, and rules and mentality that self sabotage.\n\n7 - housing\nlike mentioned before, the real estate in general has jumped tremendously.\nI m no financier expert, but an overview of economy tells me that banks compete between countries,\nand they will recourse on artificially inflating the value of real estate, and that plainly kills people.\nthis is the main reason of the homelessness you see on the streets.\nyeah, the soundproofing is quite poor, and some very old buildings can cost a lot in heating.\n\n8 - well, crime is on the rise, and citizens supporting the law and public safety is not very encouraged by the system in place.\nin some way, you re better to shut up than supporting the police... this has to change!\n\n9 - the social services are biased, and impose their vision if you want help.\n\n10 - the mental health policy is too wide, and makes you ill instead of helping.\n\n11 - the pharmaceutical companies are too influencing, and make people sick instead of helping.\n\n12 - the food regulation is lacking, it is not strict enough, allowing chemicals, gmo, and radiation.\n\n13 - feminism is almost radical, especially in Quebec, they segregate genders, and dividing us, it makes the country weak.\n\notherwise, you pretty much covered it well.\n\ngood work sissses.

I've been in Canada for nearly 25 years and have never had a family doctor, just walk in clinics. In Victoria BC the average waiting time in a walk in clinic is 2 hours 20mins and they close once they've seen their quota of patients. Not to mention I have to pay 60% of my income on rent so I now rent a parking space of a friend and live in my van

I can hear an acute Eastern European/Russian accent on you. Remember, you are free to criticize Canada, as its an Anglo country and culture and its values laws very much allow for that, in fact encourage that. But also remember, that you come from some third world shithole where criticizing the country you live in can and in most cases definitely will have serious repercussions. Not to mention, I hope all your criticisms of Canada are of Canada standing alone and not relative to anywhere else because hey, its still the number 1 or number 2 highest standard of living nation in the world.

I'm born and raised in Canada and I've been trying to leave permanently for years now. I just don't have good support from my husband who works abroad and barely spends time in Canada anyways. Canada is beautiful and clean yes but the racism is too much too much, the cold is too much and I deal with depression because of living here. You mentioned boredom but oh my gosh the boredom is overwhelming especially in Alberta. The only way to cope is to travel for months at a time but at the end of the day you always have to come back. I'm highly considering just taking off and just doing me

I am from India & I am learning a lot about many countries through this immigration series. Not to mention top notch puns & jokes. You guys are awesome!

Hi Gursahib Ji, could you please help me with some information? How is the living expenses there for a family of 3 around Brock university ? How much does 1 BHK or studio cost monthly? I got offer letter from brock with 24k funding. But this funding will cover the tuition only. Living expenses they mentioned on the offer letter is 18-24k for the student only. I'm wondering how much would be for a family then! Is it that huge? Are jobs available for OWP holders? If i apply on june 1st, is it too late for visa?

I wish I had watched this video before moving here. Everything you mentioned is true. We pay an insanely amount of taxes so homeless and drug addicts can have drugs and live in beautiful new buildings only to die from an overdose. There are not real programs to help them which is sad plus the healthcare system is trash. The housing situation is absurd, getting worst by the minute, so expensive. I regret moving here so bad.

As a Canadian who has lived in 5 different provinces , I would rank British Columbia, Nova Scotia and Quebec as the 3 best . All provinces have their \npros and cons , but your opinions are very slanted. You are very negative on some provinces and not positive enough to show the very good aspects of others. You can find good and parts of all provinces . You mention the snow and cold of some places , all the Prarie provinces are very cold in winter especially Alberta and Ontario has a very heavy snowfall. Also Ontario has a high crime rate now and a huge population. Driving through Winnipeg in summer, I thought was a very pretty city. You also skipped over the beauty of our west coast. I find your list of provinces is very much lacking and cou\nld be done much better.

Also did not mention the US government debt level. That means Americans were getting a tax holiday for a long time. Eventually it will catch up.??

Hi Thank you for sharing this. I am planning to bring my parents here in Canada. i Have a question regarding the Biometrics appointment that you mentioned at the end of your video. Who needs to apply for a biometrics? Me here in Canada or my parents? Thank you for your time.

Can Get Agent number which you mention in Ludhiana ?

My husband’s family in Morocco leave their front door open all night sometimes and we just are 99.9% sure that nobody will mess with them. I’ve walked by many people’s homes who had their doors open. My husband and I lived in Marrakech, and we left our patio door open all night many times. Granted, the patio was fenced in, but I wouldn’t even leave my balcony door open in the US. When I lived in NYC I seriously had somebody climb up my building one time and try to get in my window. Spider-Man ass thought it was his ex girlfriends apartment and just tried to come right in.\n\nEdit-\nWhen my husband and I were engaged, we were driving around one night with his family there in Morocco. I just wore house shoes because we weren’t planning to go anywhere and we drove by a jewelry store. My mother in law insisted we stop and look at the rings there. I was too embarrassed to get out, so they were like “Okay, just stay here and we’ll do it for you.” They let my mother in law walk out of the jewelry store with a bunch of rings and weren’t even worried we’d steal them. I was, and still am shocked. When I mentioned how surprised I was, everyone seemed confused. They were like “What’s the big deal?”

Hi ji, when to take medicals. You have not mentioned that. Please reply

Y’all may not want to admit but it’s safer because it’s whiter. The parts yall mention in Canada that have danger i bet it’s a more black area. Sorry but blk ppl dont know how to live civilized. And California has double the pop than the whole country of Canada. So it’s dumb to mention safety from dangerous ppl when there’s a lot less ppl. And the tap water thing, not in NYC. NYC gets rated the best in the world consistently

You forgot to mention being black

mentions east coast but literally only mentions NYC. one city out of the entire eastern seaboard. LOL on the other hand people aren't risking their lives to move to Canada. Is the tap water really bussin' like that tho?

I thought you were never going to mention the nine months long cold weather. That is the foundation for all the other reasons.

Salam sir..\nSir i am from pakistan and have done my fsc . Now i am doing business import and export. I am financialy very strong alhamdullelah. I have invested 3 cror with my friends and they are doing business i am also with them but my name is not mentioned in the company. That time i was small i hadn't cnic so that why my name is not mentioned. Now they give me letter head of our company. I have also 2 plot which its cost 80 lac . My age is aproximately 20 and same my wife. So are we eligable or not? If yes, then kindly guide me

Ive been to Greece, Ireland, England and Scotland. I will agree that tap water and food is alot healthier abroad than in the states. Public transit sucks in most American cities. There are trains EVERYWHERE in the UK. You can walk a block and see a train there. But the sprawl here is the problem so you mentioned that. I will say Americans are friendlier to tourists than most foreigners, but most Americans are really mean when they travel abroad, so I guess that would balance out. The cost of living argument is hard to agree with, but I wasn't there during the rent hikes, I came back from UK right before they happened. I've heard inflation everywhere is bad, but maybe not in Canada. Love your guys' videos. Keep it up. I always show these to my girlfriend to start discussion/find common ground, and they have not once NOT worked, so well done.

One thing they fail to also mention the USA will let anyone move here. Canada not so much.

The towns Aba mentioned are all crappy. The food in Canada is horrible. I can get excellent food at anytime of any kind at touch of a button.

You guys talk as if GTA is not part of Canada. Or you are not mentioning the cost of living in Vancouver...

Yea not lock your door.. UNLESS\nyou live in the Following \n\nToronto -\nRegent Park \nJane st and Finch Ave\nFlemington Park\nBrampton where there have been a string of murders and shootings in the last 4 yeas more than any half decade before .. \n\nThat is just the GTA ( Greater Toronto Area) How do i know this.. Ive lived in 2 o the places mentioned ..Grew up in one of them

Is no one else going to mention how the dude pulled up in the charger to get free groceries ?

What does Preach know about Mobile? Second time he mentioned it recently.

Have you guys tried any restaurants in the US that’s not a chain restaurant? That seems like all you mentioned. Next time you in DMV, go to Georgetown and eat, or Penn quarters, or 16th street and try great restaurants. Expand your palate. Preached mentioned two cities to say US women are hard. You have to experience more than just NYC and Miami. C’mon dude?

Y'all didn't mention the main thing canadas universal Healthcare

Cant just focus on cities. We have cities, suburbs, states that are essentially still the wild west etc..this is comparing apples to oranges. America is far too diverse and different in terms of everything you mentioned and more. You guys have only been to the over populated overly well known cities. States arent the same as towns that arent the same as cities for everything said. America is so diverse.

Thought y’all would mention healthcare lol
