Don't live downtown Vancouver. Move to Langley and either drive to work or take the $5 bus to the sky train to work. Most monthly expenses is rent so try to minimize that.

The Quran says in Chapter 5 verses 21 to 26 that Allah has assigned that land to the Jews. Does this Muslim not read his Quran. Its not the land of the Palestinians. The Jews have been living in Israel for thousands of years. Its is NOT their land. The Arabs want to wipe out the Jews and Israel. This is not political its religious. They want to establish a World Islamic State.... Israel today....Europe tomorrow. But the God of Abraham has a covenant with the Jews...they are Gods chosen people. The evil Islamic religion will NEVER defeat Israel. God Bless Israel.

Compared to America, being a disabled person in Canada is a dream. I lived in TO without a car for 5 years. You can't do that in the USA. Ever. Taxes are lower as there is an ancient infrastructure which is never updated (see Florida Condo meltdown, Texas power grid failure 2021). You spend hours in traffic as there is almost no public transportation. There are few or no environmental regulations so our country is beyond polluted. Rivers literally catch fire. Foreign companies bribe our officials (at least Canada has acknowledged this as a problem) so citizens can't get justice. Life expectancy in America fell sharply in 2020. It fell again in 2021. The COVID-19 pandemic certainly played a role, but that’s not the whole story. During this same time period, eight of the ten leading causes of death also increased. Even maternal and child and adolescent mortality increased. In August 2022, federal health officials released new data showing that across all demographic groups, Americans are dying younger. Welcome to the USA!

Dear Honorable Minister, \nI will request our Canadian immigration and Canadian border security to stop issuing visas and bringing more Indian students and work permit holder. We don't have more spaces and jobs to accommodates.. They are big burden to local governments. These students in one room 4 or 5 peoples. Rent and sleep. each pay $500 or $600 wow.............. \n One of my job collage born here and her family was born here, she was crying and complaining about her kids can not get jobs at Wendy's of Tim Hortons bcuz all local Canadian students jobs are taken over by Indian students. what a Shameful and she was so upset. \nShe said Canadian citizens need to get priority to get local gas stations or fast food restaurants or super stores jobs, IT related jobs instead of international student. \ninternational students after work drive fast and don't follow traffic rules. \nImmigration Canada needs to check completer back ground ,every single Indian student or work permit visa holders. Some of them could be Indian secret services agents, they could be cause more trouble for Canadian citizens and Sikh \nMost of Indian Hindus are inspired by Modi's party BJP and RSS terrorist organization was involved in killings of Indian Christian , Muslims and other Indian minorities. \nThanks for your time \nGod Bless our beloved country Canada.

I arrived in Canada when I was 5 and been here for almost 50 years. I think people forget how much the original folks struggled. You hardly found an Indian store and were discriminated against. I think you made some valid points Canada is heading in the wrong direction and we need to blame the government. We don't even have affordable housing or Healthcare to support the increase in immigration. These no name colleges are making money at the expense of poor students. These students then have to work in low paying jobs. I really don't see any scope for some of these students. Think twice before coming to Canada because even I am thinking about leaving this country now...high taxes and it will only get worse!!

There land ..? The land was to Jewish from 5 thousands years ago Antilles Muslims ftohat ..(invasion )

The Arab countries such as his brought about the problem in 1947, by refusing to allow the Palestinians to have their own Sovereign country with the UN`s two state solution, Israel accepted it and became a sovereign country, whilst 5 Arab countries attacked them to inflict Genocide on the Jews ,and to wipe the newly fledged Israel off the Middle East map. It didn`t work and they were defeated. Even Mahmoud Abbas said it was the fault of the Arabs not to accept the solution, But it took him until 2011, Pathetic.

So move to USA where you get ruined if you get sick and milk does not cost 5 $ in canada

Nice to know 3 out of 5 illegal immigrants are on welfare pay by hard working Americans - FJB

All western financial systems are due a heavy crash they can not keep up with such vast amounts of people coming in and as in Europe the vast mass of illegals who can not work sucking up the benefits system raises taxes and demand for housing is shooting prices up. \nThe western governments went into money printing mode that creates inflation raising prices on every day goods and foods this can not be sustained for much longer before it all comes crashing down, This also affects places in schools and medical wait times with more people flooding in to the point in the UK where i live you can be waiting up to 5 hours for an ambulance and 3-6 months for an operation.\n25 years ago you could get a 2 bedroom house here for around 25k now you are looking around 150k-250k the kids born here have no chance of owning a home and most end up staying with parents up to their 30s-40s, Even private landlords are under threat from government buyouts that end up housing migrants and not our citizens its a real mess that has no signs of slowing.

Feedback after watching 5 seconds of your video - The volume of the video is low even with the full bar.

So he just said - we will send aid, but we won’t (even temporarily) take in any Palestinians or send any military to protect them so they can keep their land… right so Land is more important than human LIVES. Tell that to a 5 year old getting blown up right now - I’m pretty sure they would prefer safety.

He is just trying to upsidedown the Arabs policy... 5 times Arabs rejected Palestine sovereignty

I lived in Toronto most my life. My father told me something startling accurate. Someone making $50k 5-6 years ago would have a much better purchasing power than someone making $100k now. The cost of living skyrocketed across the country because of 2 decades of terrible government policies, especially in the last 8-10 years...

That NOT TRUE according to the quran!!\n ☪️SURAH 5:20, 21\n Sahih International:\nAnd [mention, O Muhammad], when Moses said to his people, “O my people, remember the favor of Allah upon you when He appointed among you prophets and made you possessors and gave you that which He had not given anyone among the worlds.\n\n☪️Sahih International:\nAnd [mention, O Muhammad], when Moses said to his people, “O my people, remember the favor of Allah upon you when He appointed among you prophets and made you possessors and gave you that which He had not given anyone among the worlds.

There is no Palestinian land. It was invented in the 1930’s by Great Britain. You can’t have 5 generations of refugees by definition. Go to Islamic countries that support your beliefs…NOW

Humanity needs to wake up, end time Prophecy. And for your recommendations on therapy. Honestly learn how your organs work, 5 elemental energies. And learn what breath technique, talking about a problem your feeding yout energy system with the same information.

All this video has covered is the SYMPTOMS, not the root of the problem.\nThe reality is CANADA is not and has never been a real country.\nIt is a region above the USA owned by about 5 banks and their partners. (Insurance giants, real estate giants, and Gordon food services)\n\nThe government is owned by those banks too. \n\nWhat you see unraveling now is simply every big banks wet dream for real.

I was tinkering and planning for a full 5 years wanting to live in Canada, BC but decided not too after evaluating the monthly cost. Each annual visits gotten longer and longer to get the feel on the ground. It was not meant to be, perhaps next time thou.

You call $2,500/month rent is high? Try 1 bedroom apartment in Sydney. They normally cost $3,600AUD/month. If the unit has a “water view” then the rent will be $5,000 upwards. So don’t whinge.

Immigrated hear 30 years ago - happy with my experience. Strongly disagree with probably six out of your nine reasons (e.g. you can buy real estate with only 5% down, not 20%, etc.). Weather IS bad but everybody knows that.

i have a home in the UK and a home in Spain. Both with no mortgage. in 5 years when I retire I will chill on the beach. I estimate my outgoings will be around $1500 a month. Nice.

In my province healthcare is ostensibly nonexistent. Wait times at ER's are well over 12 hours and you're often directed to go home without ever seeing a doctor. \nThere is an extreme deficit of doctors. I've been waiting 6 years for one and there are people who have waited much longer with no relief in sight. \nHousing is unaffordable. A decent (nothing special) one bedroom 1 bath apartment is around 1600 a month and this is a largely rural province, not a metropolitan city. \nHomes are being bought as fast as they go on the market at extremely inflated prices by people moving here to escape the more populated provinces. This has raised property taxes by 20% in the last 2 years.\nThe economy is in shambles. Homelessness is exploding and the government seems uninterested in fixing it in any realistic or helpful way.\nFederal and provincial income taxes are nearly 50% of your income (44% for me and a bit more for my wife). So, what money you do make you get to keep a little more than half.\nElectricity is about 3 times what it is in the US and the rate here is increasing by 29% over the next 3 years.\nGroceries are unreasonably expensive and becoming more pricey by the day. Provincial sales tax is 15% on top of those groceries as well. \nThis is a short list of a few of the more glaring issues but there are far more. Canada has transformed over the last 5 years into a place I hardly recognize anymore. If something isn't done about it soon we'll be living in a third world country by 2030.

The root of the problem is hamas. They had their land, they had 5 star restuarnts, they had malls with designer stores, they chose to ignor hamas tunneling under them, they chose to support terrorists. This will end when they choose to evict hamas.

I grew up in Canada from age 15 years old, and somehow, at age 18, I became a chef . Life was easy and lovely in montreal, used to make $400 a week, pay rent 600 a month, and had very simple and happy life in montreal, then I endup up in montreal Casino ,lost all my savings and total of 120k credit card, long story short moved to Melbourne Australia 2012 again my addiction cost me another 150k of my first 5 years working here making around 1000k a week ,at the start of 2018 stop gambling and try to recovery from mental ,emotional and financial of my ediction, now I save up 250k Australians and have roof over my head and 3 little kid's, not happy as montreal but I guess was good call ,to get out and try new country, I'm not as happy as montreal because love canada and montreal specialy, but boy my beloved country not doing so good

most provinces are big with lack of diversity = expensive to move and see other landscape ; last 5 years realestate and cost of living gone bonkers - everywhere in the world it went up but canada definitely was one of the most significant- even with rise of salary its not as good anymore… fairly average health or care system - average political standing in world ( india china in a pinch usa 100% while usa doesnt seem to be canada 100% ) but we have lot of ressources tho costly to operate and not nature friendly - other than that - its a good country and better than most overall and a country you van have opportunities for sure but its not a paradise or eldorado

Because they were getting $5,000 each I can't even get food stamps because I they're monitoring cash app and I had to borrow money for food.

If only the Palestinians could go 5 years without starting a war...

Baki sab kuch apni jagah. Par sikhon ko badnaam kia jaa rha hai khalistani bol k yeh ek sach hai. I am a sikh. I hardly know 5 to 6 people out of 1000 who are in favour of khalistan. But across india with the help of media and social media sikho ko khalistani bola jaa raha hai. Ek retired major sir hai wo Lawrence bishnoi ko deshbhakt btaa rahe hai ptaa nahi kya deal hui hai unki uske saath. Ye cheezein khalistanio ko help karti hai sikhon ka support lene k lie

OK why ?? what exactly happened :( and why they dont even try to solve this ISSUE?! lost 5 years just trying to come to this country and im still trying :(

I am an immigrant myself. Have been in Canada for 15 years. I am upset what is happening last 5 years in general but I decided to not give up. \nIt is getting tougher every day, I wish we had at least a bit more affordable food.

Cant you get citizenship after 5 years?

as a Canadian who is highly educated and, your list is totally on point. I was born and raised here, and at 40yo I would say that leaving has been on my mind for the past 5+ years and will be the likely scenario for me once my grandparents are no longer around. If it weren't for them, I would have left years ago. The two primary drivers for me are job opportunities and the government. One thing I will correct is the wages you presented. The vast majority of Canadians, regardless of whether they were born here or not, do NOT make 6 figures and even the high 5 figures is not as common as people like to think. I have been turned down for work because of being over-qualified more times than not and now struggle on less than 50K/yr with 2 jobs. Just trying to get a part time gig to supplement is a problem despite my decades of experience. As someone who is single, one income just does not cut it here no matter how frugal or minimalist your life is. I can't imagine what its like for those with families. Plain and simple, this country, like many, is failing.

All by design in the 5 ? natons..\n?? ?? ?? ?? ?? \nGood luck to all contestants ?

1. no jobs. 2. High Inflation (non stop) 3. WEF super corrupt politicians 4. cold weather. 5. Health care are not good, in fact they are evil. .....6. banks are not in a good position soon. In a nutshell, run if you can.

Wow that's such a nice van! 5:00

Punjabi taxi drivers and truck drivers have infiltrated canada in lakhs n lakhs in last 5 years they even come to canada as student at age of 45 & 50 and once here drive cab n truck \nStudent visa just a gate pass

31 lakhs indians migrated canadain last 5 years( students, work visa, marriage based, relation based and ofcpurse 37% illegal)\nTrust me guys this is also kne reason \nCab drivers lawn mower cashiers clerk and many kibds of daily wagers\nIt's a glut

Come across your channel, we have about 500K in cash should we buy a commercial office property ROI at about 4 or 5% annually or invest into 10 years govt or prime bank bond ROI about 6%

NO, the cost of living in Canada has not *always* been high. For someone as young as this woman that may be true, since people usually say *always* to refer to their own lifespan. When I went to Canada (Toronto) in 1967, it was quite easy to find a one-bedroom apartment for $100-130 . Nothing luxurious of course, but acceptable. Public transport cost 25 cents (!), 5 tickets for $1.00. Working-class salaries were in the range of $100-150 per week. The value of the Canadian dollar was 7% less than that of the US dollar. My wife and I were actors who worked in a children's theatre for $45/week. Slim pickings, but with our approx. $370/month we got along all right, went to the movies, bought records and books,, ate in restaurants from time to time, bought food cheap in the Kensingto Market and got a complete tax refund at the end of the year. There was an air of general prosperity Things have changed drastically over the years, obviously.

Immigrants come in and get 5 star treatment, free money, housing, medical coverage, while real Canadians are set back. Bring in Immigrants but make sure they are self sufficient and don't suck off the system.

Respectfully could this have been covered in a 5 minute to the point video ? We can do so much with modern technology in a short amount of time; cheers

Bring back the boy from the sixties, they would not have lasted 5 minutes

My family came to Canada 5 years ago. The main reason was because my dad had been busy setting up a branch of his European company here for two years. He wanted to launch this new branch and then retire early. Canada as he knew it was a good option for him to do this. We even had a house long before we came to Canada. And we now live on the west coast of Canada. \n \nFor us, the transition to feeling at home here wasn't particularly difficult. We also had enough experience of what it was like to live in other countries. Canada actually turned out to be a very easy country to quickly settle in. \n \nI've heard that Canadians can be reserved, but my personal experience is completely different. \n \nNevertheless, I got to know fellow immigrants who didn't find it easy to get started in Canada. In my experience, they were not very or only rudimentarily informed about what to expect in Canada. Their expectations were very high and they failed because of the reality of everyday Canadian life. \n \nOthers had similar experiences, but they persevered and ultimately arrived in Canada. Some of my fellow students are international students who are also considering leaving the country because Canada doesn't offer what they were hoping for as a better life here. \n \nThe reasons are really too individual in nature to really generalize. I think there should be a lot more help given to people who are struggling with their fate in Canada, because there are enough programs that they could take advantage of but that they never hear about. \n \nUltimately, it may help if someone just listens to them and perhaps has some advice, no matter how vague it may be. Those who finally arrive in Canada after years of a long odyssey and find this country something like home are, in my opinion, those who never gave up.

In all honesty, we need about 5 million of them to leave. It is a major cause of the housing crises and crazy prices.The country, its citizenry and our social programs need a break.

Rent and houses price went to the roof in the last 5 years.

My income for working on stairs is a bit over 5 thousand dollars for 5 months work. I've been on stand by for the last 7 months. I live in a minivan and am living on my capital, not my income which is a joke.

I stopped visiting Canada 40 years ago because of insane or corrupt border control policies. I traveled to Canada from California to record an album for a popular rock star. My crew number 4 people and we had reserves a month for basic tracking in a studio there. We bought our own reels of 3 inch wide recording tape because the studio wanted twice the rate as normal and since my studio was a distributor for the mastering tapes we brought from my own inventory. Each reel of tape was 3 lbs and brought 30 reels. We got to customs and they said we owed money for importing the tape. Normally a reel would have been $180, and customs wanted $38,000 x 20, and would not let us retrieve it to take it back to the US side of the border. How can a tape worth $180 suddenly have duty of $38,000?\nIt was explained to me as the Potential Value of the tape which meant AFTER a hit song was recording in it. Most recordings are total losses and the tape cant used on a new project even if properly bulk-erased. They expected me to pay on the spot $760,000 in duties. I gave up and left the tape with them. I called the artist and said we could not do the project in Canada and we went back to California. The artist came to us a few months later and the result was a minor hit, and probably barely made its production cost since the label only distributed it in Canada. I talked to an international trade lawyer about what happened and he said customs officials were wrong in Canada but they are given full latitude with no appeal so his advice was never take anything over the border that I did not mind being confiscated. Sometimes they would let it in because it was going back out in a month, but likely they sold it off and pocketed the money. The US is corrupt on a federal level but Canada is corrupt on the local level. I moved out of the US 24 years ago have a much higher quality of life than is even possible in the US, and live very cheaply. Total cost of living with a very active social and cultural life impossible to duplicate in the US which as some of the least options for culture. And my cost of living is $1500 a month, less than utilities alone for one house in California, and that is for 2 people. Last month for example I attended world class opera, ballet and symphonies 9 times, and went out to dinner, in jazz clubs or dance clubs, visited12 top museums, and it was still under $1500 for the month. A pair of tickets to the MET in NYC for lower grade performance, sets, orchestra ad theater, was $1800!! $600 for tickets to drama for 2. Here there 237 drama theaters within walking distance of my city center home, and can walk anywhere at any time of day and be safe due to VERY low crime rates. Free medical is good. I am not citizen but still I had an operation and 10 days in a vip single room for $5300 and despite my insurance I had been paying back in California $824.month, it was going to cost me out o pocket $500,000 and one day in a recovery 12 bed room, and require paid nursing attendant for 30 days. The results were great and was treated like king.\nCanadians have lost control of their government but Americas are screwed regardless, with lower than international standards for everything, with crime, corruption in Washington, extreme cost of living, no access to culture, few if any safe parks. My adopted city is not only far more beautiful than any US city, my GF can walk, alone, anywhere in a city of 7mil at any time of day through any of the 600 beautiful parks open 24/7..at 3am. There are no homeless, and 80% of those over 20yo own their home clear of debt. No college debt despite twice the % of people having degrees. The rest of the world caught up and has surpassed the US and Europe in quality of life. \n\nI have only been back to the US 5 times in 24 years and each time I am shocked by how much the entire society has declined while most of the world outside of Europe, Canada, US, UK or Australia have dramatically improved.\nEvery year since 2008 more Americans leave the US to live elsewhere than legal immigrants arrive.

I left USA after staying there for 5 yrs
