what drugs are you on !!? Canada still wins best living country top 5 so you are fucking triping dude Canada is way better then USA and Europe so fuck this lie !

It is because Canada bleeds the middle class again and again and tells them to give the government more money. It will help you. Canada is a sham. A country I loved when I was young is a place design to destroy lives and make sure no one can gain anything in life. I am ashamed of this country.

It sucks living in a big city, period. Add to that that Canada is crazy cold and in general not that exciting it is very weird that people keep coming

Canada is more like many countries rather than just one. Canada is HUGE ! it has 6 time zones ! I moved to SASKATCHEWAN from the UK 20 years ago, I love living here, I will never go back. ?

This country is a joke. As a Canadian living abroad. Other countries take care of their own long before a foreigner. Canada needs to have more pride with the people who built this country which is Canadians who have paid their dues and their parents. If you're a refugee we shouldn't deny you a plate of food but if my neighbor doesn't have it I'll serve him long before you, these are my people - the ones who has supported me in periods of unemployment, childhood - you can pay your dues too or don't come here. Look to your neighboring countries who share the same creed and where you can integrate better as you come here for our services. I wish Canada was less Socialist to attract only people who can pull their own weight. Socialism never works.

It props up the economy numbers with population. So the numbers look good on paper but eventually just like printing money it has inflated the cost of everything. A smaller contracting economy for fewer people is still a nice play to live. What is the goal? Canada was 27 million in the 90's to 2000, then it was boom 33 million to 38 in the last ten years. Whats the goal 200 million people ? I thought 30 was great, now its like may24 weekend busy every weekend.

Why does everyone keep calling this country Canada? People, we live in Pakistan. It's called Pakistan, not Canada.

Lifetime Canadian here; housing crisis for sure, but what`s even more insidious is many entry level jobs such as fast food industry, production workers in factories, and even culturally significant cornerstones such as Canadian Tires are being owned and operated by East Indians, going so far as to play Indian music over their loudspeakers for us Canadians (both at a McDonald`s and at a Canadian Tire). It`s obnoxious and border lining on reverse racism; because trust me, these people will drive out all the nationals, and replace them with their own temporary workers, whom they have much more control over, and are likely infringing on human rights concerns (taking passports, multiple human occupancy housing), it`s a mess here. If you live in Ontario, Alberta (lots of Indian corruption there and in BC) and British Columbia, you know exactly what I am talking about.\n\nI am actively trying to get out of Ontario and ultimately and ideally, Canada.

I am from europe, lived half my life in canada came as teenager. want out desperately anywhere sounds good as long as I get some employment and health care.

I am an immigrant, close to become a Canadian citizen. I chose Canada to live with my family and I love this country. \nThat said, I could not agree more with what was said. Things are completely out of control. We can't bring that many people and have no infrastructure to support them. Housing, health care, everything is in a crisis because of Trudeau. If I get my citizenship before the next elections, I will help voting him out!

Nothing new here. Lilley said it as plain and as simple as it can be said. TURDeau is responsible for all the problems he and the policies his band of incompetent ministers have put forward over the past 8 years. You name a problem in this country and you can be that the criminaLIBERALunatics were 100% responsible for creating it and now they are scrambling to make bigger problems attempting to solve the original problem. It's long past time Canada eradicate the scurge of Liberalism in this country and relegate them to unofficial party status in the next election. I truly hope that not a single existing minister gets relected in the next election, including JustINFLATION TURDeau, Christia NOTA-Freeland, Steven GuilBOOOP!!, Anita AnandMORETAXES, Melanie onaJOyrideLY, Francois-Philippedout drinkingChampagneallday, Sean shouldbe-ERASERed, Dominic LeBlancSTAREofanidiot, Johathan WilkinsonSWORDinEveryCanadian'sBelly, Jenna Sudds-inherbrain, Marck MillerTIME, Diane LeBOOTonyourthroatlikeHItLLIER and the many more equally deserving of mention.\nOUT OUT OUT all of them, and hopefully we never need to hear their names uttered again.\nBring on the CARBON TAX ELECTION/REFERENDUM so we can begin the process of repairing all the damage caused by this totally inept and incompetent band of morons.\nLONG LIVE FREEDOM DAMMIT!!!!!!

Where will these immigrants get jobs? Where will they live? How many immigrants will go on welfare? \nOur economy is slow right now. Letting in more immigrants is really going to slow the economy. \nTrudeau is a trust fund baby. He has never had to worry about money or housing or food. He has always had it good. Hence he does not think about monetary policy or other things. He is likely preoccupied now with making plans on how to get re-elected. \nTrudeau has divided Canada with his carbon tax. Some people pay the full tax, some people pay less tax and some people pay no tax. What a mess Trudeau is making of Canada! He has no clue on what to do.

The one thing that they don't understand that people work hard while these kind of abusers sit their butt on couches and live on govt benefits and disability. If they were not wasteful clowns themselves, Canada would not be inviting people to work here. Useless dummy himself.

Thanks to Trudeau and it’t followers, Canada’s living standard is quickly dropping. For those thinking of immigrating to Canada, think twice!

Do not mind the hateful comments. People’s lives in Canada are pathetic (wake up, work, sleep, repeat) so they have become spiteful. It’s sad ?

Bro, why, seriously why spend soo much money, time and resources to go to such countries, and get treated like this. Even the living conditions are shit in canada for foreign students..\n\nThe so called developed countries. What a waste.

The racism against South Asians in Canada is getting out of control. Really crazy to see that. And I am saying that as a white person living in Canada.

One doesn't need a house in Canada. You go rent an apartment and you may live. Of course, if you earn 2000.00 to 4000.00 CAD per month. Which is rather difficult for immigrants. Usually, your pay is 10.00 CAD per hour, which gives you 1600.00 CAD per month. Which is way too little for covering your bills. Government instead of building cheap communal blocks of flats is building condos. But the cheapest condominium costs 500K CAD and show me people who can afford it....? You buy and pay monthly rent, yeah 2500.00 4500.00 per month only to cover rent. Plus 186.00 for internet and TV, 30.00 for stationary phone, 45.00 for mobile, 600.00 for monthly food for 2, plus meds, dentist, cabbies, electricity, water, then you add toilette, laundry liquid, toilet paper, towel paper, cat food, dog food, then the bill goes over 6000.00 if you wanna live in the condo. You have always private sector housing where monthly rent is from 900.00 to 2500.00, which depends on the district and quality of the apartment. For the landlord, you must pay monthly and renew lease each year. If you have roaches or bed bags, it's a bigger problem for you. Not every landlord uses paste. They use spray, which is not a roach killer at all, and whole your apartment will stink for months. Private sector has thin ceilings and wooden floors, so loud noise of your neighbour's may disturb your night rest or cigarettes. Smoke may fill up your space. Beware when getting sick. Family doc is unavailable, usually if you have one or at all if you don't.

I was born in South Africa but my father moved us to Quebec City (where he was born) to live in 1991. Now he feels that he's got nowhere to go. He knows Canada is finished, but where is there to go? He's too old to start anew.

I just share this information to my telegram immigration group...I do study permit and work permit to Canada, I live in Edmonton......

It's a lot harder for full born Canadians and 30+ Canadian citizens alone to survive given the insane cost of living. And yet, Canada can't even afford to welcome immigrants and refugees, but still open the doors. I got nothing against them coming here. But if the government cannot even fix this problem with their own people, then WTH

Canada is a beautiful country but fir family you can't afford anything until unkess you make minimum 12k after tax per month or even more just to float. Insane cost of living can't afford a nice car , i firgot when did i went for a shopping some .new clothes. When did i went for dine out

Birth rate is falling because no one can afford to have children in Canada anymore. Cost of living is so high, can’t afford a home, food etc. Canada is the biggest scam. I’m Canadian and I’m planing to move to Thailand soon.

Toronto is not a real city.\n\nMore than half of people who live there were not born in Canada.

Please do your research before moving to Canada or re-locating to another province. The grass IS NOT always greener on the OTHER SIDE. Toronto is a VERY EXPENSIVE city to live in. Think of paying $2,500.00 per month for a one-bedroom apartment, or 1.5 million dollars to buy a home. Do your research! Windsor, Ontario continually has the highest unemployment rate in the country (Canada). This video is VERY misleading.

I left after 26 years. ?. Main reasons were the poor state of kids' education, unfair taxation, cost of living and weather. I thought i would never leave Canada, but it had to happen sadly. I am sad to see such a great country going down the drain. ?

Canadians do not want this, the Liberals have tapped out the middle class and now they need to keep importing millionaires and low skill workers in order to fleece more tax dollars from more warm bodies. The oligarchs are juicing the system and profiting on their investments. Canadians are unable to compete with imported money and standards of living. This is of no benefit to average Canadians. Ideaologies and climate change are being used as a smoke screen to shame those who oppose this many immigrants or being over taxed, its a form of narcissistic abuse on the population. I could care less if we can't staff drive-thrus. Nobody should have to pay someone else's mortgage to live in a house they'll never own themselves. Canada is ruined and the cause is greed, corruption, nepotism and apathy.

It started in 2015 when Trudeau preaching liberty took over.\nHis support dropped when people realized that he was lying all the time.\nHis comments stated that European immigrants or white that are the highest popularion must end.\nHe then used mainly open borders and immigration without standards of employment,language etc to bring millions from non-democracies such as Islamic Nigeria into the country without homes to live knowing they would support him in any vote.He also made up his cabinet with Islamists.\n\nAny of Canada's major industry oil& gas he's destroyed.\n\nToday in Canada we have a loaf of bread for $4-5 dollars with meat priced out of range of citizen's incomes.\n\nTo this unholy alliance he added opposition parties that still pretend to be the opposition including NDP & Conservaties in Ontario under a former drug seller !

With mass migration, Canada is losing it's European identity, a nation with strong British and French roots. \n\nWe didn't vote to live in India 2.0 \nI have no interest in India or anything Indian, why must i be forced to live in India now???

High rent and crime are problems across Canada right now. Larger cities will be more strongly impacted. \nThe root causes are actually quite simple. It's from decades of downloading responsibility for many services until they ended up in the hands of municipalities who had no capacity to fund them, then made 2x worse by the disastrous immigration policy of just the last few years.\nIt explains all three of the problems you identify, unaffordable rent, high crime rate, and underfunded social services.\nSo these are not problems with Toronto, but at the federal and provincial levels. Simply repeating that there are plenty of better options elsewhere doesn't make it true, unless you can give specific examples. Other places likely pay less, require longer commutes, don't offer small size rentals, have even worse social support, similar crime rates, or some combination of all those factors.\nToronto itself isn't as bad as this video makes it out to be. The downtown core skews all the averages, yet all the reporting, b-roll, and examples seen here seem to focus on the core. Of course the reason why it's worse in the core is because so many people want to live there! But I'm not going to concern myself about people who complain that they can't afford to live urban lifestyle, to be a part of 'the scene'. There are plenty of much more affordable options within a 30 minute subway ride of the core. Well inside city limits. But your friends won't think you're cool, so... oh no!\nYes, rents are still too high outside the core, of course. But they aren't as ridiculous as this video suggests. The city is massive. Grow some humility and find a place to that you can afford to live, within Toronto.

From having lived in 4 of the G7 countries over the past decade, I think Canada is the worst by far. Although it’s disingenuous to blame everything on immigration. The woke prime minister and his cuckoo policies deserve the blame too.

Yeah? Well, not to worry...this world is about to change beyond the imagination...canada and the rest of the world will be living in abundance in the near future...no matter, I plan on leaving canada when things become better, and they WILL get better...but, for me, architecture is a major issue...the buildings/houses here look more like institutes and 'feel' cold; whereas some other places look more like what I love...Tartarian buildings...so I'm gonna be moving to a place that has more Tartarian buildings that are more welcoming and warm...just sayin... ✌✌

15 years ago Canada was one of the the best countries to live in. Government policies, primarily from the Liberals, have destroyed this country.

Many immigrants can not afford Canada's high cost of living unless some help is on the way.

How you now you live in Canada you pay bills tax work how you make tall to mi by tru

You live in mini punjabi in Canada but you don't speak in punjabi why you don't lose the personality please speak in punjabi??

i live in Canada and believe me people dont want this much immigration.

Canada has issues and opportunities. You need to look into it before make the decision of moving to Canada. Sadly there are many people or businesses that only want to take advantage of young professionals or young students. The country is very expensive even for locals. The minimum wage is no enough to live comfortable and as a full time student you wont be able to work full time. So take your time and do an honest analysis weather if you have the money and spirit to come to Canada. It is a great country, but definitely it's NOT for everyone.

Ugh this is so sad. I was in my mid 20s when I left Canada for the US because the housing situation there was out of control. The park they showed at the 2:44 mark was where I used to live back in 2021 and I remember it was filled with kids playing and people walking their dogs. Now it's a tent encampment for the homeless. Very sad to see the living condition deteriorate there and hoping they can turn it around.

Canada needs to help ODSP injured workers like how come if we work hard for an employer and we get injured permanently we are doomed to life in poverty??? Its bulshit!!! They should atleast be able to support themselves and their kids because the kids suffer now too and we take away their ability to provide a decent life its a literal living nightmare!

I love how you put in so much thought into creating your videos, you literally could have just sat in a couch and told us how living in Canada has been for the past 9 months, but you decided to shoot a whole documentary about it, it’s really beautiful ❤️

You go to an expensive city and the cost of living will be higher. If your goal is to send money home, living in a very expensive city to pinch pennies isn't the strategy. Consider Edmonton or a small city that can meet your needs and long term goals. Think of the long term goal and do the math before immigrating to Canada.

Stay away from Canada if you want to live!!

I am canadian living in GTA. All the things said in this video are true 100%. Be careful moving to Canada, unless you are rich who doens't care about no job in 4-5 years and spends at least 2K alone each month to cover basic stuff for a life

Oh let me count the ways ‼️ I could write a book as to why no wants to live in this sinking shithole called Canada ‼️

SOUND LIKE YOU 'RE SAYING THERE ARE NO RICH FOLKS LIVING IN CANADA. LADIES COST OF LIVING IS HIGH EVERYWHERE ONE DECIDES TO LIVE. THEN GO BACK TO AFRICA LADIES. WHY THEN WOULD YOU MOVE FROM YOUR OWN COUNTRY TO CANADA, YOU MOVED FROM YOUR CULTURE AND COUNTRY, WHY ARE YOU KNOCKING CANADA, SO GO BACK TO YOUR COUNTRY. YOU'RE EVEN COMPLAINING ABOUT WEATHER GOD GIVES, PLEASE LADIES, YOU BOTH SOUND SO IMATURE. LORD HAVE MERCY, THEN LEAVE.

I live in Nova Scotia and most of our population is practically now Indian population it was never like that say 8 years ago,im fine with anyone from any country living here for sure but it must not be bad for them because they have moved here in droves,practically every business is filled with indians all working in them and including where i work,ill tell ya there dedicated workers and work hard and i get it they need the hours to get there Canadian citizenship?So is there a long time perk of being indian and moving to Canada,Nova Scotia perhaps that i dont know about?Because us Canadians that have lived here all there lives are definitely not getting any perks or barebones living for godsake.

I am here in Africa live with more luxury that Indians in Canada get and also save lot of money

My aunt lives in canada and they say they are discusted. Amongst all the things you said the school system is also completly broken and unaffordable and the teachers are saying to the 11 yo students to “explore themselves and try to find new genders in themselves” my aunt is completly angry by this and wants to move but her husbant has a full time job in there so they have to stay

Our government lets everybody into Canada it should be if you were born in Canada you live in Canada if you're weren't born in Canada you're not living in Canada
