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.

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.

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!!!

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 ?

This is what happens when we don't have unhampered market system (Capitalism). We need to free the country from the government. The immigrants will thrive, the existing citizens will thrive. Canada will thrive.

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?

I grew up in Canada..Calgary to be more specific. I have now been away for 10 years, living in Chile. I go visit every couple of years and I understand completely, id have a hard time moving back. Maybe for people who have arrived in the last few years it seems fine, but for the rest of us that remeber how it was 15, 20 or 30 years ago..its a shocking change. The big cities are full of drugs and homeless, which increases crime. Its expensive and good jobs are hard to come by. It seems to me 2015 was the turning point and only these last 2 or 3 years are Canadians realizing the mess that has been created.

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.

Nobody asked the citizens if they want an open borders policy. Radical mosques will turn Canada into something else.

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.

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.?

The Canadian dollar needs to increase its value and be recognized outside its borders. It can only be used in Canada. No other country will accept it

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

Building public housing is a must.\nA temporary stop to immigration is also a must.\nStop blaming each other.\nThe blame is in the numbers.\nNumber of square feet of roof over head per person.\nIt is Canada. It is cold. We must have roofs over heads.\nWe must have more public housing.\nWe must pause immigration.\nPierre Polievre's Government must do both.

Disgusting ? CNN probably showed them all the way into Canada, and set this up for views. \n\nThis organization is Totally dishonest

Because Canadians are seeing their country disappear in front of their eyes. For a country with such a massive landmass, Canada's population is microscopic. If mass migration goes unchecked for just a few generations, Canada won't be Canada any more. The maple leaf will be replaced by a crescent moon... The same thing is happening all over western countries, and it is being done on purpose against the wishes of the majority. Mass migration from African and Middle Eastern countries is changing demographics at a frightening pace, and people are rightly concerned by that. It's completely reasonable and sensible for one to want to preserve one's culture and national identity. People have fought and died for thousands of years for such things. \n \nThe fact that so many cultures and nations exist around the world is one of the things that makes our planet interesting. It's why people travel. If I go to Japan, for instance, I want to feel the difference in the way of life, but if Japan suddenly opened its door to mass migration, I wouldn't any more. So Japan doesn't open its door to mass migration, and what would you know? Japan still resembles Japan.

The specific cases mentionned have absolutely nothing to do with immigration laws. You clearly have an agenda and poor argumentation. Anybody can enter Canada with a valid passport and clean background. What happens next is definitely not related to the immigration process.

Alas,Canada,one has only to look at the UK and Ireland to look at the turmoil created by mass uncontrolled immigration.

BECAUSE EMPLOYERS ,EVEN CANADIAN 100% ARE UNPAYING FOREIGH WORKERS OR NEW INMIGRANTS IS SAD , BUT TRUE CANADA SUCKS 100%

canada is a garbage country.

The programme presenter says his home country is Canada, well mate your home country is somewhere in Europe. It's definitely not Canada

Canada is really going done. We need Pierre and we need him now…

Thank you Canada for your hard earned tax money :P

The Century Initiative demands that Canada reach a population of 100 million by 2100. That’s roughly a new Winnipeg every year for eighty years just to reach a completely arbitrary number with no infrastructure in place to do so. It is possibly the most reckless, irresponsible set of policies ever embraced by a western government.

What they fail to say is that they do not have enough points to gain PR. Literally hundreds of thousands of people immigrate to Canada yearly (as per the program requirements) and that’s because they have enough points to get invited for PR. \n\nGet your points up, be competitive like everybody else.

Problem with Canada is the immigrants are not spreading out beyond Toronto. How many go to Saskatchewan for example?

Build affordable housing and it won’t be an issue. It is NOT affordable to live in Canada without a minimum income of $100,000.00 per year, per earning person in the home.

Thanks for the explanation. But, can it be stated why applying for visa, i mean the one’s explanation why he/she is going to Canada?

Canada will never recover from Fidel Turdeau's globalist agenda. Done!

Canada's leadership is lazy mentally , too conservative and close minded. What is the big deal about building more houses and creating more jobs.? If the USA can do it their narrow-minded leadership can do it too.

What about the third safe country agreement? From what I know, asylum seekers will be sent back to Canada to apply for protection if they sneak over the border from Canada into the US and vice versa.

Canada has the highest taxes in the world. People who arrives here say they were lied to by the Canada Gov't. Its Trudeau Jr. fault and needs prison time. Why are you speaking to a NGO??? NGOs are a parasitical grifters.

let's show immigrants that Canada does not want them f Trudeau we have to act ourselves
