Excellent video! I'm impressed by the time spending on waiting doctor and winter in Montreal. I try to learn something new to have fun and improve myself, by this way I start getting used to here after living here for four years from China. Whenever you're, I hope you can live happily with your family.

I'm currently planning to immigrate to Canada. As for me, the very reason why I want to move there is to have better life. There are some great points mentioned to this video but for some cases, most especially if you talk about other underpriviledge countries, Canada is much more better. I'm from the Philippines and I would say that our country is suffering from everything. High price of goods, salary for CAD375 minimum (for a month even you're bachelor degree holder), no health benefits (unless you are working in a private company that offers benefits), no educational benefits (I would consider scholarship but that wouldn't enough to survive in every semester that you'll take). Senior Citizens / PWD that only gets benefit from their 20% discount in every purchase they make for medicine and food and seniors sometimes didn't get their pensions... so on and so forth.\n\nI think, it all boils down from what country you came from and differences of the gov't system that they have. And all of us needs to work hard to get a better life. It will always depends on our decision on what lifestyle do you choose or how do you live your life or what life do you want to live.\n\nBut to conclude this, this is a great video. This a great heads up for those who wants to come to Canada.

wow amazing so true this made me sad too ? I came to Canada when I was 9 years old with my father and sister so in some ways I was young so it was easy in a way for me, but as I got older it hit me being Spanish dominican ?? the culture different it's quite obvious, you're absolutely right people stick together in their own Community or culture, and is kind of hard to make friends, I know Spanish people here in Canada Toronto but they seem to stick to themselves and you were to think because I'm also Spanish that would have been easy for me to talk to them, but is not so sadly, without offending anyone Canada is not for anyone, you gotta be strong, Brave, quick, and smart. Credit matter alot here in Canada or you're nobody, having reference matters a lot or you cannot get anything done, the level of education matter alot here in Canada, and many more.. I can go on but there pros and cons like every country, but in all honesty I don't see myself living here forever I'm planning to move.

I have lived in Canada for 30 years. Things back then in 1989 were almost perfect. Housing, cost, jobs, healthcare. It's now getting worse and worse and no positive signs ahead. In the last 10 years until now, if you're sick ending up in hospital, be prepared to wait for a whole day for your turn. There were cases people waited too long to be treated and died (true story). Gasoline price now is $1.34/litre, the highest price in 30 years. Buses don't have transfer ticket like before. Everytime you change the bus to reach your destination you have to pay. Bus ticket costs $3.50 each. Food price is skyrocketing. Internet, cellphone plan cost you at least $60 per month. Salary doesn't increase high enough to cover higher cost of living. I can't wait to leave Canada. Hopefully I save enough money in 5 years.

Then go. Get lost. If you're complaining in Canada, you'll complain anywhere. Good riddance.

I am a physician and still struggling to get in to the system. You're very lucky....

U re talking about life bro, what about islamist life , is we get halal meat, is we heard azaan , is masjid all across, is Allah RabbulIzzat is the top of all things , if you want good life you can stay in mountains and forest

Breaking news. Even if you think someone has covid, punching and hitting them actually means you’re getting in contact with them. That means you’re risking getting and spreading covid just to attack someone you don’t know.

This whole “micro aggression” nonsense is what completely makes people not take racism seriously and as a real issue. I for one am not saying I’m one of those people but I’m just making an observation. Because along with real problems of people literally hating a certain group and thinking they’re above them just because their skin is a different color than them, we lump somebody touching your hair?? Sounds more like she just wasn’t comfortable with somebody doing that, and most people would probably say that they’d be uncomfortable with something like that, regardless of their ethnicity. I hate when racism gets thrown around because people are insecure and think everything bad or unwarranted that happens to them from a white person is rooted in racism. It’s seems like “it’s racism cuz I decided it was”. Some people are just assholes, or weirdos, and need to be put in their place and labeling EVERYTHING as racism really causes a lot of people to not take things seriously when it IS present.

20,000 from the U.S. ?!? Yeah right they may have traveled through the U.S. to get there but they’re not from here

You forgot that if you don't like ice hockey after 1 game then you're going to get kicked out of the country.

we don't need anymore moving to Canada. we need our Canadian system to actually start taking care if canadians. born and raised. we're giving foreigners money and houses yet charging their own people 1400++ for bachelor units where you can get the luxury of pissing where you eat.

The tests with the three friends, I'm not saying the racism it exposed doesn't exist, but I'm curious if attractiveness or character plays a factor in this as well (or even more). Getting different rental prices is outrages. Being stalked in a store is just weird, but a couple of checks I wouldn't mind. If nothing ever happens that will stop. Being asked if you can be helped should not be an issue. Although I admit it can be annoying (I rather shop without interference), but as long as they ask politely, being offended by it is your own problem. As for the hiring part is this video, I believe there might be even more discrimination based on age. I like the idea of blind hiring when possible. Being rated on skills is in the best interest of any party. \n\nAs a society we're making good progress on a lot of levels. There is still ground to gain, but let's also celebrate what has already been achieved in the last couple of generations. Social media makes it look like it's only bad, but don't forget that bad news sells better than good news. And all companies (also news companies) want to make money.

Hello, Dream Canada !! Excellent detailed information. I have two questions for you, one would be the validity/duration of the profile once submitted? Second, would be now lets say I have submitted my profile with less IELTS score (approx CRS >350) then later I had to re-take my IELTS (CRS score >450). Do I have an option to upgrade my profile with latest IELTS scores or does the profile gets locked in the first submission itself?

Hi Jason,\nI watched a few of your videos and found them very very useful. Much appreciated!!\nHere’s a bit of background and what I know:\nI am planning to immigrate on PR to canada along with my wife. I’m a Software Engineer with 5+ years of experience. Both me and my wife have Master’s degrees. Problem is I got a CLB 8 band getting us a totalk CRS score of 402 only. I wanted to write IELTS again but not able to get test dates here in the USA; earliest is May 2021. \nNow, I also know of two other ways of improving CRS; PNP from Alberta and BC Tech Program.\nHere are a few questions popping in my head:\nWould it be a good idea to create an Express Entry profile with 402 score and wait for Alberta to pick us for PNP? \nWhat happens if I submit my Express Entry profile and later I get a better IELTS score and want to submit that profile?\nI’m obviously using the Alberta PNP only for PR, so what are restrictions on us to stay/work in Alberta? Our plan is settle down in Vancouver, BC. \nI just found out about the BC Tech program from one of your videos and planning to prepare and apply for jobs there. Wiuld you have an idea, approach, suggestion for me to apply and secure an offer from Employers in BC? \n\nP.S. I understand you might be getting a lot of queries/requests and this long message would certainly not help. Just want to convey that I’m grateful for all the information provided and everything you’re doing is appreciated. Thanks You!

Bro \nAre you even from Canada? \nSome REAL TIPS \n1) Canada is expensive as fuck. Good luck on a minimum wage job. Don’t bother coming if you don’t have degrees because with such little population jobs are extremely competitive \n2) doctors visits and emergency rooms don’t cost anything upfront but do expect an 8 hour wait or 12 in a big city. Doesn’t matter what your “emergency” is... get in line. We have the longest waits in the world for things like X-rays and MRI’s. True story look it up. \n3) we have the most expense cell phone plans in the world with the shittiest coverage. In all fairness we have a small population and a massive landmass. \n4) if you’re moving to BC, car insurance is government run. So it’s extremely expensive (I think also the most expensive in the world) and it’s awful... so don’t ever get into an accident) other provinces don’t run this way. \n5) gas in BC is also very expansive because of multiple taxes, it’s affordable most places in the prairies though \n6) drinking is 18+ everywhere except BC where it’s 19+ \n\nSo if you want to live somewhere “nice” move to BC. but you’ll be poor as fuck. \nWant to live somewhere affordable, move to the prairies but it’s awful. \nYou can’t move to Quebec if you don’t speak French fluently. Toronto is okay and you won’t fit in anywhere in the eastern islands so don’t even bother. \n\nThe end.

You’ll get hell no matter where you go in the world. Utopia doesn’t exist. There’s always someone who thinks you’re not good enough.

Coming from Germany we are used to high taxes. If I’d earn 100k CAD here I would get only 55k...but health insurance is already covered.\nBe aware when you start working in Canada but you’re not considered a permanent resident in that tax year. You have to pay a higher tax rate since you’re not a permanent resident. So if they hire you as a permanent resident (what they usually do cause they don’t know) you need to pay extra after submitting your tax return ;-)

Hi I hope you're doing good...I am looking for a job in canada can I get the job?

Hey man can i get $6000? You’re really nice

People are just overreacting about this, there are way worse crimes and fraud being committed right now in Canada. He’s just bringing rich people to Canada, that means more money is coming in to the country and no citizen is being hurt or affected in the process. These rich people are actually adding value$$ to the nation, not subtracting. They’re not getting benefits and a bunch other free things “benefits” the poor want, instead they’re injecting capital into the market.

These activities and more are still occurring in Canada. It’s ridiculous, basically be rich and you get away with whatever you want.\nI’m sure they’re going about it smarter now, which is why so many Chinese migrate to Canada yearly. Most don’t work or speak English but have never ending money flow.

Fellow Canadian here! Love your videos!\n\nJust wanted to point out that we're not alwaaaays so cold ? we do experience four seasons, and our weather in the summer can get up to about 30-40°c, and in some parts winter can get - 40°c. It definitely varies from the East/South/North/West!\n\nWe also discontinued pennies a couple years ago, too ? could be more but I'm not sure.

I agree with the brotha we're reactors. You get exactly what you give! Let that sink in for you.... you know!!!!

We’re do South Americans get this idea that Canada ?? welcomes evryone ?????

Canadian here. I want to make one thing clear: *WE ARE A REAL COUNTRY WITH VERY STRICT IMMIGRATION LAWS!* I myself am an immigrant, although I came here as a baby. People seem to be under the impression that Canada is some sort of utopia that welcomes every single immigrant with open arms and sings “Hakuna Matata” with them. No, we are an actual country with stricter immigration laws than the US. Yes, we love diversity. Yes, it is our strength. But that doesn’t mean everyone is fair game. I’m not even specifically referring to this man here. All so-called refugees who already had made it to the US. If you were a refugee in the US and then come to Canada, OF COURSE we’re not gonna automatically grant you refugee status. Jesus Christ.\n\nTrudeau is not being a hypocrite. Of course we appreciate and welcome immigrants. But We. Have. Laws. End of discussion.\n\nEdit: I want to make it clear that I support immigrants. I voted Liberal and I will again. Either them or NDP. I’m just so sick of people thinking they can waltz into Canada and become a resident. “If Trump gets elected again, I’m moving to Canada!” Please ?

I honestly can’t believe some of the comments here.... you’re fed bullshit then immediately think it’s legit ? here’s some facts for the racists out there convinced there will be a Islamic revolution in the U.K. ??. Fact: Muslims make up 4% of the U.K. population... how are 4% going to take over ? Hindus make up 4.5%. Get real... gets some facts in your head and stop spreading hatred n bullshit

Just go back to El Salvador guy and get a job. The grass is not greener on the other side...you're not in any danger back home

Sooo. Being asked if they need help is a bad thing/racial profiling? I am white.. I get employees coming up asking if i need help.. usually i tell them what i am looking for and it helps alot... I think you should re-examine how you define racial consumer profiling

It's so blatant what's going on now. This isn't about race. This is about divide. Whoever these people are who are telling what these companies/media to say are clearly trying to get us fighting each other. It really seems like they're trying to divert attention. If we're all fighting each other we're not paying attention to what's happening to the side. \n\nPlease people. Right, left, black, white, blue, yellow, atheist, or religious. We need to come together. They are using our beliefs against us. I know it's hard to see other's views when they are so radically different than your own, but we have to look at the bigger picture.

You're an Oregon if you open your bag Portland Oregon and they are wrong and there's nothing in your bag and they're racially profiling you you get sued I had a neighbor that happened to and he got some money from the Albertson's for the singing thing it isn't cool and my roommate was dark-skinned in I think he was Italian or something but they thought he was Puerto Rican

We're tribal.\nWe are like those who lived in prehistoric times: afraid of THAT (different) group over there getting OUR resources.

even jobs in canada depends on what colour you are and if they knew that you're arabian omg you cant get the job

Anyway I could get followed around the store by an associate if you're walking around with no car and a coffee cup in your hand and not shopping just strolling around the store suspiciously

Yeah it's happened to me to and i'm white, it's just humanity. Get over yourselves, you're not special...

Boo freaking hoo..He called me a name. Get over it.We don't have to like others! We separate ourselves by color. You're not supposed to be a citizen unless you can speak English. English is the language of America.\nWhen in Rome do as the Roman's do.

I've heard that colleges like Centennial, Sheridan, Thomson River university etc. help you get jobs if we're doing courses like diploma in marketing. Is that not the case??

Do you think women get those comments in the money raising experiment, when they're not asking for money? Those racists aholes, may not say those horrible things.

To be fair every time i go to best buy i get asked by every single employee if i need help, im a 26 yr old white guy. It's just what they're trained to do to help sell their products, it is really annoying though

As a Property Manager you know who destroys apartments. It's not 100% but it's real close. If you're not sure, call the last landlord they had, but they might not tell you the truth just so they can get rid of them.

They’re not happy in Gaza …\nThey’re not happy in Egypt …\nThey’re not happy in Libya …\nThey’re not happy in Morocco …\nThey’re not happy in Iran …\nThey’re not happy in Iraq …\nThey’re not happy in Yemen ….\nThey’re not happy in Afghanistan ….\nThey’re not happy in Pakistan …\nThey’re not happy in Syria …\nThey’re not happy in Lebanon …\nSO, WHERE ARE THEY HAPPY?\nThey’re happy in Australia …\nThey’re happy in Canada ..\nThey’re happy in England …\nThey’re happy in France ..\nThey’re happy in Italy ..\nThey’re happy in Germany …\nThey’re happy in Sweden ..\nThey’re happy in the USA …\nThey’re happy in Norway ..\nThey’re happy in Holland …\nThey’re happy in Denmark …\nBasically, they’re happy in every country that is not Muslim and unhappy in every country that is!\nAND WHO DO THEY BLAME?\nNot Islam.\nNot their leadership.\nNot themselves.\nTHEY BLAME THE COUNTRIES THEY ARE HAPPY IN!\nAND THEN- They want to change those countries to be like,\nTHE COUNTRY THEY CAME FROM WHERE THEY WERE UNHAPPY!\nExcuse me, but I can’t help wondering…\nHow dumb can you get.

Hi Igor, \nI hope you're doing well. I'm a great fan of yours.\nI have a few inquiries regarding AIPP.\n \n1. Is there any advantage if anyone applying to AIPP and Express Entry together? \n\n2. If anyone accepted for AIPP, is it mandatory for that person to stay in the Atlantic province for the rest of the life? \n\n3. Are employers really really interested to recruit foreign skilled worker for the sake of real shortage of skills in the Atlantic zones? \n\n4. It's said that it will take 6 months to get a PR through AIPP. And after that, I can only roam Canada but not work anywhere else till my employer endorse NOC for me. Well, I'm okay with it. But in the long term, for example, after getting Canadian citizenship(staying 1095 days from 1825 days), can I move to any other preferred place/s and work anywhere I want based on my relevant skill set? \n\nThanks in advance

LOL do they really think its ok to just walk in any country? uneducated is astounding. looks like the same guy who speeds in your freeway and cuts you off and gets mad because you're mad lol, low class.

I’m so sorry for all of you precious people of Canada! You’re our neighbors (the state of Tennessee USA here) and we see you’re having to put up with everything the Democrats want to do to us if they come into power this November. (The only way they could do that is voter fraud, which is exactly what happened in what we call the mid-term elections in November 2018, when some House of Representatives and Senate seats come open in the two-year cycle halfway thru the Presidential elections - that’s how they won the House back) \n\nThat poor displaced family, though. Bless them; officials need to get to the bottom of where they’ve been, where they actually have citizenship, and attend to them properly and GET CANADIANS HOME! President Trump needs to go up there and jerk a knot in Mr. Trudeau’s rear end. (That’s an old country Southern saying; don’t overthink it please!?? We finally have a President who may be a little bristly, but he loves America and Americans and he is working hard for us!)\n\nBut seriously, wish you much success and although I can’t monetarily, our greatest weapon is prayer and my armor is on (Ephesians 6)!!! Keean, you’ve stepped up to the plate because you love Canada and want to do what’s right by her! You’re doing a wonderful job - “absolutely fantastic” as my YouTube friend Mentour pilot would say. So we hope the situation gets resolved quickly, because this virus is taking its toll on everyone in more ways than one, and in ways we’ve not even seen yet and have no way to predict. Keep looking up though! And make sure you belong to Jesus Christ . Amen!

Bro I get asked if I need help everytime o go to Best Buy they are dope there and when you’re just killing time trying to look like you’re really looking for something, they justtty might see you struggling and ask

NO ONE CAN MOVE ANYONE TO CHANGE. ONLY JESUS CAN DO THAT. EVERYONE BELIEVES THEY'RE RIGHT. JUST LEAVE EACH OTHER ALONE OR IT WILL GET WORSE. HOW PERSONAL DO YOU WANT TO GET. ;-)

*and I'm willing to giveaway my whole bank account for the person who can get a job offer in Canada online while he's abroad Что за хрен.. невозможно устроиться на работу из-за границы Я уже 3 года пробую каждый день по 15 емейлов отправляю!!!!! No way you can get accepted for a job offer if you're outside Canada. Ive been trying for 3 years, I send 10 to 15 emails daily and still nothing!! Thats a waste of time guys*

In Canada it's hard to get an apartment if you're white with a good job. All landlords are arab and prefer brown people on welfare. If CBC cared I'd prove it

When you have headscarf and follow and stares at you thinking you’re stealing? \nThis is my story, or trying to apply for these bigger company for a job and noticed your Muslim name and they make excuses for to just get finish with you? \nIt’s 21 century people, and still racism there?

Then why don’t you have a guy wearing a mask over his face people might not be favorable to masks it doesn’t mean it’s racism at the mask everyone for the test again no control to your experiment you’re dumb just like I may get treated differently if I have a biker outfit on then a suit and a tie it doesn’t mean it’s racism or clean-shavenVersus a beard
