So i came to this video to get an idea of the other 2 countries ! Seems you guys have tons of support ! But it seems mostly its in the good riddens take all other muslims with you kinda way ! Literally the world is rumbling right now. Swear ive seen more than once non muslims wanting to do go fund me's so people can move. What a time we are all living in !

I was born in Bethnal Green and now live in hackney up the road, if ANY of these so called muslims came up to me on my way back from a night out with my pals i would tell them exactly where to go seriously and from the old video you can see they are picking on the vunerable , imagine if say 5 or 10 lads where going down the pub in whitechapel to watch football do you think these cowards would say anything??? I DONT THINK SO!!!! I rest my case

Hey friends. I just came across your channel scrolling. \nI’m a white Christian woman in my 40s. Single and no children. \n\nI agree with all of your reasons. I respect you and I respect your beliefs. I wish more people could just live and let live. \n\nI do not judge people based on religion or belief, nationality, skin colour, age, appearance, etc. I try not to judge people at all but I am human and unfortunately flawed. \n\nBut I give all people respect because every human being on this earth are deserving of basic respect and dignity by virtue of their very existence. \n\nI just subscribed and I’m looking forward to watching your older videos and being educated on what it has been like for you to be Muslim in Canada. \nHave a blessed day.

I totally agree that this country will break your spine and test your ultimate willpower. Me and my wife came here 5 years back and we decided that we will shut ourselves like a tortoise. Forget about savings and forget about everything else. Only and only one goal we had in mind is that we will live in the basement and earn top dollars. Just to give you a perspective. My first pay was 19 dollar per hour and my current pay is 87 per hour. My wife started with 16.5 per hour and now earning 69 per hour. Even though our income grew substantially, we never raised our expenses. Answer to all problems in Canada is income. Now after 5 years we bought house worth of 1.4 M. We moved out of basement and felt immense pride. We paid 37% down payment and 3 banks approved our mortgages in a heartbeat. No debt at all. We paid up our car in full. Just a regular new suv nothing fancy. \nEveryone is different, we all are unique and I believe you took a right decision. Each and every word you said in the video is true. \nWe cried , we fought , we felt that our life is ruined but we both thought that ek bar to Canada ko harana hai. Itni income generate karenge ki sala CRA shock ho jaye progress dekh ke. We literally cried when we saw our YTD on Dec 31,2023. We crossed 300k and lately to be honest we got a kick in living in basement. People around us thought of us as a regular poor couple but from inside we knew that we are earning in top 3% of Canadian population. \nI would highly recommend that understand the job market of Canada. Work on your soft skills. Power on the language is MUST. It is even more important than your technical knowledge. Make meaningful connections. Stay away from negative people. Once you understand your inner strength then now body can stop you.\n\nThanks for this amazing video. Love the narration and information.

Honestly, could not get any negative point about Canada in this whole video. It was just that you and your spouse were missing each other and you have a very comfortable life here in India, that's why you came back.

Cant wait for next video 100 reasons why we came back ?

I just came across this video and I am smiling for you guys , moving is definitely not an easy thing to do . I’ve been trying to leave Canada, but it is super hard for me as a single parent with 4 kids . I am going to continue living here and save up until I’m ready to leave . Good luck to you and your family ???

Sorry - I came here for a video and you immediately hit me with a sponser spot.\nI don't have any idea WHO you are or what you're about to present - but you're pitching me before I see any of that. So - - bye.

I’m so glad I came across this video. I will never go to Canada. I didn’t know it’s so rough out there.

The first thing that came to my mind after the atrocities of g3noc1d3 starting happening was to move to another country. Where to ??? I look forward to your videos on this topic.

Subhanallah this has been on my mind for a while. Your video came as a suggestion and hearing you speak about it made it more real! I am Moroccan but Born and raised in the Netherlands,

That I found this video is a sign from Allah I am on the right thought and path❤❤\nI am a Single Muslimah working mother of a young kid and InshaAllah will do Hijra for the sake of practising Islam easily. ??\n\nWas looking for options and came across this video. JazakAllah! Saleh family❤️❤️\n\nMay Allah make it easy for all of us to follow our deen. \nInshaAllah will do Hijra in 2025 and raise a child who will be a wonderful Muslim above everything else. Aameen! ??

Mashallah may Allah guide you for what’s best for your family ????. This video raises questions in my head cause I was planning to came study in Canada. I now doubt If it’s a good idea for me and my family. Thank you for sharing

I’m not Muslim, I’m a 72 yr.old white guy ,secular,born in England, came to Canada as a six year old. I agree with all your reasons for wanting to leave. It makes perfect sense. Especially the reasons that relate to your faith, which although I’m secular , I agree with . These include educational indoctrination in the schools regarding LBGTQ etc. ,identity politics, and a lack of political leadership that unapologetically denounces genocide in Palestine. \nRegarding suggestions about where to go we’d need to know what languages you speak etc. Obviously Arabic or Persian would be number one . Without knowing that I wouldn’t know what to suggest. Clearly only other Muslims would be qualified to answer those questions.\nNevertheless,looking forward to see how you make out. \nAll the very best.\nSaying a secular prayer for peace in Palestine as I share videos far and wide from the internet regarding this decades long struggle for justice.

Alhumdulillah!!! I’m so happy I came across your video. My wife and I are exploring our options for leaving the US. Most of what you said resonated with our circumstances. In Sha Allah, you'll find what works for you guys. As for us, well actually me (giggle), I don't mind the cold. We are exploring predominantly Muslim countries, but even that is hard. May Allah make your hijrah easy. Looking forward to seeing your follow-up video(s) with your choices.

It's funny how you brought up the exact same points as my husband and I discussed about our life in Canada. Our vision changed so much when our baby came to this world. You both confirmed that all of our worries weren't hypothetical. It's the harsh reality of Canada. Thanks a lot for making this super transparent video. ❤ May Allah make your journey easy and bless all you and your beautiful family. ❤ (We plan on moving back home in Turkey)

Lynn just watched this video ,great content, i came across it after a friend of mine with a good job in kenya asked me if i had any links there, i am Jamaican, i actually established a business in Nairobi Kenya,which i moved from Jamaica which started in the UK, i told my friend i did have links but he would not be able to take the Cold weather, look Lynn the answer for me is if your KENYAN Government opened the doors to the Diaspora to come to Kenya from the Carribean ,USA and South America , we would bring our wealth and skills which are higher,no disrespect, yes there are intellectuals in Kenya, but they realise when they work in places like Canada that they are learning more, we as black Diasporans already had a head start when it comes to that , because we have been in those countries since Slavery unfortunately,but we took the knowledge anyway, if we came to Kenya and other African countries,not only would jobs be created for kenyans and such like but your living standards and economy would improve,its a no brainer, please do i video on this subject,?keep up the good work, nuff respect

7 years ago when I researched Canada to migrate to as a software engineer, I came to know the so-called Canadian Experience and that was it for me to look elsewhere haha\n\nEdit: I watched the video to the end and enjoyed your style of creating content, it didn't get me bored. Great Video!

I like your video? Maybe she is right there are a lot of baby boomers are retired or retiring now. They need a CAREGIVER in the house one to one or in old people facility [ care home ] When I came to Canada 55 years ago I worked as a dishwasher 1$ an hour and climb the ladder from there. Good Luck ???

There's another YouTube video of Syrian refugee men in Norway having to attend a class to learn about Norwegian values. The Norwegian lady told them that they cannot hit their wife or have sex with her if she doesn't want to have sex because that is rape. One of the Syrian men complained to the lady that she doesn't understand their culture. She told them that she doesn't have to understand their culture because she didn't go to Syria, then came to Norway asking for help.

Nice and well thought out video. Even though I don't agree with everything, you said it in a considerate way and shared your honest experience. It was just unfortunate that you did not get enough time to settle down. Moving to any new place is extremely tough and especially when you are moving to a completely new city. I live in Germany and I love it here. My wife and I came here to study, but my wife came first and she had a really bad first 6 months in winter. Things got much better later. We Indians miss house help so much in early days, but the fact is you have so much free time here and things are well organized. You don't waste time in traffic, you don't have to go 10 times to a government office to get work done, you don't have to sit with kids everyday to do homework, kids can come and go to school on their own, there is little dust so houses don't get dirty every day, everything is planned and no one is visiting your house suddenly. So in reality, doing the house chores aren't such a big deal because you have a lot of time.

On November 29, 2023, I received news that our African brothers and sisters who came to Canada on visitors visas were stranded and sleeping in the open. I visited the shelter in Mississauga, near Toronto. The disturbing video below is the condition of asylum seekers who came to Canada on a visitors visa. \n\nhttps://youtu.be/7RSL6y0gTN4?si=w7tTI-Amg5ITKrXI

Great, no nonsense video. SOrry to hear that things have gotten so bad. I came to study in 2007 and it was still ok. I absolutely loved it, I think part of the problem is everyone wants to go to YYZ or YVR, but I found the outer suburbs of Montreal, and rural quebec to be even just a little lower than an average US city. Food I guess depends where you go. The situation in the US is only a little better.....Hopefully things get better quickly.....

I'm not Indian, I'm indigenous from Canada and I grew up in Vancouver, where the population is mostly from Asia. Being surrounded by people of asian descent is very normal for me. I don't expect anyone to assimilate and lose their culture to exist here. I knew we had a large population of Sikhs here but I didn't think it was nearly as many as in India... and now I find out there are more sikhs here than in India. Amazing. I also didn't know we had so many Sikhs in parliament, let alone Indians. My school is mostly Indian and everyone I talk to has come from Punjab. Everyone seems to love it here, and the school is in the middle of little Punjab so I've been told by my classmates it is the perfect place for the students who are homesick because they are surrounded by their community. I rarely hear English when I walk down the halls, there is even a course to learn to speak Punjabi, which I want to take so I can talk to the students who don't speak English as well. We have many large gurdwaras, and one near me I've eaten langar almost everyday for the past 10 years. Most people here know Sikhs to be very generous and humble. It was a shock to me when I heard the president of Guru Nanak Gurdwara was shot, because I believed Sikhs to be very kind and peaceful, and the gurdwara has a very good reputation as they take lots of food into Vancouver and feed the homeless. They even opened a kitchen in the DTES during the pandemic to be able to have food available to the people immediately. No one else did anything like that. They delivered a lot of food. Now they have an auxiliary kitchen in the DTES permanently that serves free meals. I thought more news would come out of the shooting but it seemed quiet for a bit until Trudeau accused the Indian government of the attack. This news also shocked me, so I decided to start looking into it slowly. I couldn't really get a good idea of what was going on until I searched a video for Diwali and your videos came up. I will share it with my husband so he can be educated on the matter as well. Thank you for your diligent research and dissemination of important knowledge.

It's glaring you are very ignorant of what you are saying; you better close that ur dirty mouth because what you are indirectly doing to to inform the IRC of the loopholes in the Visitors Visa: this is how the police office from Nigeria end up exposing the UK student dependent Visa; now another idiot is out looking for cheap clout; is a person who has already landed his/herself in Canada through the tourist that is solely waiting for regularization not a fool? What business does someone who those not fall into the category of skill and workers that Canada desire going to do in Canada using the tourist Visa? Over sabi have you heard of the IRC refusing a nurse who came into Canada with Tourist visa; and then successfully passed his/her NClex while there regularization before? When making analysis; better get your facts right and if you are intending to remind IRC of the weakness in the tourist Visa; You are a failure because no matter how you complain ; they won't change it because this alone has sourced them over 5000Nurses and doctors to fill their workforce shortage. You that as a Nurse or a Doctor got to Canada and refuse to take the appropriate exams to practice; is that person not a bigger fool for wasting his/her life savings for sight seeing? You better pull this anyhow and deceptive video down. Where and how did you get your demonic statistics of discouragement and failure? And what province of Canada are you currently?

I am planning on coming to canada with a visit visa and I must be honest this is one of the best videos I ever came across. You are so funny as well you just gained a follower

didn't even watch this video.. came here to read the comments section. Did not dissapoint!

I am not argue with the narrator of this video. It is his preconceived notion of what is good living. But I am living in Manitoba for more than 40 years and I really really love it. I raise my kid here and they were educated here. I have no regret living in Manitoba even if I came from a tropical country. This is home and impact a happy home for us. I visited other province also but nothing I can compared to Manitoba. Manitoba is where my hearts are and will be forever.

Saw your video for about 15 min waiting for problems in Canada due to which you came back. It looks like an internal problem, nothing related to Canada life.

Chorkor i was blessed to have come across this video... it really moved me..back in 2019 started by going to Ghana.. i left Nigeria through benin republic to togo lome then aflao to Accra....was in Ghana for about 1yr..came to Nigeria. 2020 i was aspiring for Germany but due to covid everything was still. Then 2021 i applied for masters program in Warsaw Poland. But i was duped for about 4euro. By the person who wanted to help me pay my sch fee..i still didn't give up 2022 i applied for ireland visiting visa was denied... but this your video is giving me hope...as we speak now my home country is hell..people have almost ran away ???

The conclusion of this video is that there was no problem with Canada. You people missed family and friends, that's why you came back.

i first saw u, watching one of your travel vlogs a few years ago, and i have to say... i still love u! :) i came across this video doing my personal research on why a close friend of mine who emigrated to canada in 2009, is now trying desperately to turn back. Actualy all my friends who emigrated to canada in early 2000's are already back. I see we exeprience all over the planet the same cost of living problem, but what hapenes in canada is quite hard to endure

Honestly, I'm really impressed by this video I got a Canada visitor Visa since July and I have been discouraged by so many people that I can't get a job with it, that is a very difficult thing and what kills me most is that I used agent and the charged me a whole lots of millions and the painful part of it is I borrowed the money even to pay with interest and I just came across this video, please I will need a help on how to go about it I have skills like barbering of hair and shoe making also I just graduated so please I have been going through a lot I don't know if I should make this movement because I don't want to come back and put my family in this such a debt, how can I make it please help me I will really appreciate I'm so muchly depressed ?

wow what a detailed video. i am Sikh i have been to Canada and came back to my India. this video should be watched by everyone who think all Sikhs are kalistanis.

Canada is objectively better in terms of legal employment protections, unemployment insurance and healthcare, even though it's second-rate when you take into account waiting times etc. Our public education system is hands down better, even with it's woke issues. If you have never been to, or lived in Canada, you have no right making this video. You're comparing apples with.....nothing.\n\nHaving said that, us Canadians are a smug, asshole bunch of people who sneer down their noses at the US, while having no leg to stand on when it comes to guaranteed freedoms, gun ownership, and generally stupid voting habits that vote for some useless asshole because of his surname and the fact that he 'has nice hair'. I would leave Canada if I had the money. It was a great place to live until the 2000's came around, then everyone flushed their brains down the toilet.

I love your videos young man ..watch often . As a child I spent a few summers with family in Hudson , Ohio ..a great tume and full of great memories...\nI have ebhiyed maby trups to at least 8 States ...loved my visits .\nI did a job last summer in Atlanta ..was there a week . Wow , I was ill prepared to be trsated sooo poorly by ny host employers staff ..\nI was 63 then , 2 yrs ago.. all others in gge group were bkack Americans .. the shick was veing faced with all out ageism and racism by this 4o yr sinething bunch .. cut ny employmebt diwn and came back to Ontario. We just do not treat each other that way up here ..very sad !\nOtherwise I love visiting there.

Me watching this video and be like why I came to canada??

Amin Ontario Canada , I came on a visiting visa, I have watch lots of your video, I will like to meet with you or have a way to reach you on phone

This is my first video of ur channel I m seeing, I saw title and wished to see this video full, I saw ur whole video, my big brother was in Canada for just a month as his USA visa was expired, so he had to move out from Usa, and he decided to go in Canada, he stayed there in hotel with his wife and daughter, and in a month his most of savings were gone, just to live in Canada, it’s 12 years before thing, then he immediately came to India, and small sister is in USA, she is still there but, USA is somewhat equally same like Canada. Ur this video will be a opinion or decision make for many, for sure. So big like to this video from me. ????????

Such a badly researched video, expected better from nitish. Got so many facts wrong, \n1. LALA HAR DYAL was not a SINGH, his name was LALA HAR DYAL MATHUR\n2. Gadri babas including BABA SOHAN SINGH BHAKNA never fully trusted him cause he was never a man of his words. He wasted so many vital months of gadar movement just by giving them false promises to start printing soon.\n3. This england’s sikh car was never vandalised by any so calles khistani lol, this rumour has been busted as soon as it came.\n4. In 1985 bombing nitish forgot to mention CSIS officers remarks that to capture the real cuplrit we have take few vans down to the indian high commission and bring them to question.\n5. Calling 1984 sikh massacre/genocide a DANGE? Definition of danga is when 2 parties engage violently with each other. 1984 was a genocide as it a planned activity not only delhi but throughout the country.\n6. Most common mistake on the same level as godi media to start talking about sikh issues and khalistan from 1984. 1984 was the end result, it started way before in 1928 or even in 1909.

Thank you for such a great video. Living in Canada, as an immigrant I’ve seen struggles, but thinking about the generations who came with no help, suffered a lot. I love my ?? India and Happily living in ?? Canada.

Thank you for making this video. Finally somebody is brave to vocalize what many residents think. I came to Toronto 19 years ago and it is sooo different now in a bad way.

While I identify and agree with the overall sentiment of this video, here is the problem Alina. As a somewhat successful tech person who came from nothing, I refuse to move out of a city to a culturally or globally lacking city due to “budget”. I tried spending time in BC and Nova Scotia in the capital cities. I could not spend more than a week in Saskatchewan. I can assure you that someone with decent skills and lifestyle would not be able to sustain their social and personal life, and mental health anywhere in Canada other than Toronto. If I spoke decent French, I’d say Montreal is a decent option. Vancouver is too lopsided as an international real estate haven, even though beautiful. So the problem is that Toronto is honestly the only city someone like me (and most my friends) would consider living in Canada, and we are all unfortunately being forced to move to the US. We are in our very early 30s so it’s still not too late to have a big move but none of us wanted to try out NYC or SFO much later than now. I hope things improve and we are able to move back to Toronto. But right now, unless you make $300k+, it’s impossible. And we are only able to make that money in the US (most of us). Cheers and keep it up.

I saw your video and remembered when I came to the USA as a refugee in 2003. It was a tough ride. I had to take three buses to go to work. I also shared an apartment with a young girl from Kenya. It will get better. Hang in there and keep your eyes on Jesus. Today, I am a United States Citizen, I have two bachelors degrees ( Nursing/Psychology). I am now in school for my Masters in Nursing while establishing my own business. I own my home and no longer have to take the bus- I own two cars. Sister, surround yourself with positive people and don't focus on the negative. IT WILL GET BETTER.❤❤❤

Chokor Millionaire, I don't agree absolutely with the blame on the government. At least from what I have seen in Ghana, people are starting businesses.\n\nI am going to say something I observed about Ghana. I found out that women, as usual, are more hard-working. I realised that the men don't have work because they are lazy or have too much pride. I have watched so many videos where so many business owners complain about the ineffectiveness and inefficiencies of the workers. They are not dedicated when they work for other people. I watched these business owners whose workers in the farms are mostly women, and they were very happy that women are easier to control and have good work ethics as opposed to men. The men prefer jobs where they don't use their energies such as Yahoo Yahoo boys, selling in shops where they don't touch anything or lift a finger.\n\nGrowing up, we knew that men were supposed to do the hard-working jobs in society. But these days, men like to idle around and touch nothing. The reasons being that the African culture teaches us that men are not supposed to do anything at home. They are supposed to be served by women. Then, instead of the men going out there to do the hard work and make the money, they wait around expecting cushy jobs that don't make them lift a finger.\n\nLook at China that you mentioned. These boys work absolutely hard. Even in the villages. Look at Muslim countries. You will never see women working on the streets. The men are even the ones who cook the food on the streets and sell. Check countries like Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka. In Africa, most things are done by women.\n\nAll this japa that people are fighting for. Have we ever thought of the agenda of these people needing free and cheap labour? I came to realise that we stupid Africans don't yet understand. Our children eventually become strangers, and we remain just surrogate parents. Most of our children are never going back to Africa, and when they get to an age, they become like strangers to us. Whatever we say, they look at us like archaic. What then makes them Africans anyway. We have seen so many of them who barely know their countries of origin and have never ever been there. They do not know their relations. In fifty years' time, that generation has lost their roots, and was that our intentions initially? This all dawned on me recently with my children, and I feel absolutely dejected because they are not interested in our country. All my hard work is gone down the drain, and all that can happen is for us to leave our children behind and live like people who never had children in the first place. For now, most people see it like something to be proud of, and are happy to say ( my children live abroad). Africans are the most stupid people I know, and that is why we are always used for slave labour. Why are they all approving all these visas and allowing all these people to drown at sea? \n\nThese countries allow these fake visas deliberately because they drain African countries to enrich their own since they can't get the minerals easily these days.

When did this video happen?? Because they are talking like October already came and went when it’s literally September 17 2023 right now. Either this is old or fake.

India is in a much better situation in this recession.. even better than the US and Canada. I have a good job here.. Enjoy my weekends with great food from swiggy zomato and beer?. You get better salary packages in India. Cities like Pune, Bengaluru, Gurgaon, Ahmedabad, Navi Mumbai are great to live in and earn. I work from home...nice work life balance, enjoy my vacations in Goa... Go for a vacation every 4 months. Thoughts came in to shift to Canada... but decided not to go. Why struggle so much abroad. Pajji has said the truth...so relatelable! Thanks for making this eulye opening video for people deciding to come to Canada.

Trucking is a terrible industry to get into right now, especially as an owner operator, rates are way down and big companies are going out of business, thats what happens when the industry is flooded with new driver's, too many driver's chasing too little freight, $22000 a month before expenses, just fuel will be $15000, net will be a few thousand dollars after all expenses and tax, but i love your video's been watching you since i came to Calgary 5 year's ago

Bhai i came to my logged in device iss video ko open device pe dekhkar. These women are BOOMER AF. Bc baat kiye baghaer marne ki baatein, naye kapde pehenne par compliment na milne pe naye kapde pehhne ka fayda na hona ki baatein, maids na hone ka rone ke baatein,leftover naa khaane ki baatein, these women want 3rd world culture in the 1st world. Good riddance that such people arent coming here and if they are, they are staying in their own ghettos

Bro wtf, this video came out right when I was thinking of moving to Texas.\nThe house prices in Canada are just unliveable, and I really like the politics, guns, and tech sector that Texas has.\nIts beens omething iv been thinking abt for years honestly.\n\nNow while I can technically just spam my TN visa indefinitely while living in Texas, its gonna be pure unbridled CANCER tryna get a green card and possibly a dual citizenship.\nI get clowned for it, but I like America, and specifically really like Texas as a state.\nIt would be nice to be considered American and all, so im open to dual citizenships and all.\n\nBut for WHATEVER reason, the US grants greencards based on your country of BIRTH, and not the country you grew up in all your life with a citizenship in.\nThis means 20 year wait times, cus im apparently from a country I cant even remember being in.\nIts not a completely be all end all type of deal, since if I marry someone else who was born in Canada, my chargeability would be from Canada.\nSo my options are to litterally get bitches.\n\nThe whole process is cancer honestly.\nApparently it was infinitely easier in the 90s since Elon Musk also immigrated from South Africa, to Canada, and then America.\nBut times have changed, and it just really be like that.
