Considering no one invited neither of you here, FEEL free to go\nback to your home country.

I live in the US, and considered moving to Canada, but your concerns are the same as mine... Goodness!

I'm considering leaving Canada for the same reason mentioned in this video. I feel like working for the government not for myself. Sad story

Just wondering, after all these reasons, would you consider leaving Canada?\n\nIt’ll help me gain perspective on what the choices are as well as the advantages.\n\nCheers

Thank you ladies for these eye opening information. It's quite educating to those who are considering relocating to Canada.

I’m surprised the first reason wasn’t winter. Literally long winter! 6 months! Luckily for me, I can work remotely so I’m considering being a digital nomad from next year! Bali, Vietnam etc

Salam khala, thank you for sharing your story. It surely was very easy when you guys moved to Canada. Best part is your whole family is there.. so you guys wouldn't have felt home sick then. \n\nPlease do share how to move to Toronto and what kinda jobs can one get for moving there.. would be super helpful, as I'm seriously considering moving there w/ family for a better future. Also, what do you both do for living??

To anyone considering Canada, do not come here. This country props itself up by taking immigrant's money, forcing them to redo their education qualifications, and then giving them low wage jobs. The country is a scam.

I am Ukrainian and going to go to Canada with Cuaet visa, now I am in France. So nice to see compatriots which speaks almost like native in English, really I would think you are native English speakers :) I understood, that you are rather from Russia, and I am from Ukraine, but anyway I consider you like the compatriots abroad, despite bad relationships between our countries, hope in future we will be friends again, because our cultures are so close. I will subscribe to your channel ;)

Considering on doing education in Canada but the comments here are worrying ?

Racism in Canada is different from USA. In the USA its more racism as a generic term to describe discrimination against ethnical state while in Canada its more about cultural discrimination. From my own experience its still better to be black then arab or indian for a simple raison is that black people like europeans share many cultural similarities like drinking alcohol, eating pork and sometimes smoking weed. So to be considered a good citizen you need to have these features regardless or skin color. Another thing is that Canada is a multiracial friendly country but not multiculural. Meaning a black wearing european clothes is good but a black person wearing traditional clothes on the streets in bad

How about online jobs? I’m working a fulltime job for an Australian Company virtually. Would it be considere as self employed or a freelancer? Or would it be considered as a working experience

I was born in the French capital, Paris. Believe it or not, we still have our birth certificates from the country. I would seriously consider going back to France, even if the argument is it's not that great (compared to who you talk to). Also, I'm an author, and living in the Toronto area can be depressing. For me, it's about the culture, the language, the food, and the lifestyle.

Where ever you are you will be happy if you consider it your home\n Home is sweet if you feel it as your own.\n10 points you dislike in Canada\n How it would be when there isn't freedom at all in some countries such as middle East and China!

I just wonder if the equalization payments to Quebec help them rank this high on poverty. Considering they took 11.9 out of 19 million must help. If Quebec was number 1 they would be helping other provinces not taking most of the hand outs.

BC has amazing natural beauty, but having been here since 2006 after moving from Ontario, I do NOT consider BC a province of Canada but rather the 51st State of the US and I am moving back east.

I was in Canada for 10 years which I considered lost years. Many of my friends also are in the same situation, we all lose our health, saving, confidence and many other aspects of our own personality. We can not blame Canada though as it is the same everywhere in the world. If you do not have to then do not move to Canada. As the regret is a lot after you do the move.\nIt is not the same for everyone also, but for most of the people it is not working anymore to immigrants to Canada. It is not working for Canadians also to live in Canada as before too.\n\nSo be careful when making decision on immigration to Canada as many people lose a lot.

Thank you for the Video, \nFor Skilled workers, Does the experience need to be from the same noc? Or they consider different noc level with sum of 1560 hrs?

Quebec...get right. I was born in that hell-hole and as an English kid growing up in the highly separatist east end of Montreal my childhood was miserable. The french are so bent on having their own little country they treated anglos like dirt. Try driving east towards New Brunswick and stopping anywhere to get food or whatever, you better parlez the francais or you'll be looked at like you a criminal. How dare you speak the hinglich au Quebec. Best province my ass. They don't even consider themselves a part of Canada. Take the once named St. Jean Baptiste holiday on June 24th, it's now la fete nationale. Sure sounds Canadian right! You got your list upside down, this video is garbage.

Thanks for the information, its priceless!\nFor all of the job which you're mostly likely to start immediately.\n\nSince the starting time is short, If they are to consider you as a foreigner, how would they process your visa within the short period of time mostly people from Nigeria?? It takes few month to get Canada visa processing completed..

Please don't consider Quebec a part of Canada, they are their own culture, nation, and are a tumor on the rest of the country.

Canada is a miserable cold place, that's why the Portuguese went to Brazil and the Spaniards went to Mexico a hundred and fifty years before anyone considered coming here.

Hi Jason. This video was indeed very helpful and clearly explained. I am business owner with registered company and IT returns at India. Will it be considered for skilled work experience for AIP?

“Dreaming” of owning a home? How pathetic things have become that the idea of owning a home could be considered a dream.

There is a lot of truth in this and it's been getting worse. However, it is also worth considering that the influx of millions of culturally different immigrants, many of whom are quite hostile, may have contributed to the loneliness and fragmentation of Western society.

So true considering that we only consider money as a measure of prosperity and idolize western philosophy.

Great video. I think part of the issue is that American has a faulty foundation. We are a very diverse country, but in that respect there is a natural division amongst races, with other contributing factors, that causes a general lack of unity, and know one is technically from here. It is very different cultural wise when you and your ancestors can trace your lineage back thousands of years to the same land, verses a couple hundred, like anyone here in America. You have Irish Americans who in Ireland have a very distinct culture, but here they are just considered white, you have black Americans like myself who are like 3 or four African tribes in one, who are just considered black. So I think the black white mindset of America contributes to this factor significantly.

Appreciated for the video. In India in most of the houses, a child going to live abroad is considered to be something very privileged. I can bet that most of the parents in India send the children to school anticipating that my child will settle abroad once grown up ?\n\nI cannot think of leaving India and settle somewhere else. It will be a nightmare for me ?

I lived in U.S for 3 years. Everything is great except one's social life and mental health. Economic stress making people life miserable. I am from Pakistan which is considered a third world country but people are not so stressed out as they do in U.S.\nAfter careful analysis, I decided to move back to Pakistan and I am almost stress free now. \nMinimum wage jobs, higher cost of housing òr mortgage has made majority's life miserable. People are scared of each other in social interactions.

It depends. If you work in the tech or oil sector you will most likely be fine. The key is to do your research in advance and understand the cost of living situation in advance. If taxes or housing prices are an issue consider moving to Calgary or Edmonton rather than Toronto or Vancouver.

I am from Kenya living in the US and what you say holds true. In addition to loneliness (which was made worse during the pandemic) you have to consider the incredible cost of housing compared to wages, incredible cost of health care, and prejudice. Some people work 6 or even 7 days a week, sometimes on more than one job per day. However, I don't think I could live in Nairobi anymore. The life there has become extremely hectic and competitive.

In America what’s considered weird is considered normal in the rest of the world like walking.

I am from Pakistan. Studied and lived in USA for over 10 years. Don't know where my time has gone so fast. Life is very busy in usa (I lived in Chicago, Denver, Orange County, CA and LA. People have to work two jobs to ends meet. Most people have to share housing...that really sucks. Constant expense (rent or mortgage payments are so high people have to constantly work. Whatever time people get they run chores and stay home and chill. You see ultra rich or people on welfare having fun at the beach. I have had a very close friend from pakistan came to usa same time as I did. we both never had enough time to meet up on regular basis. even when we met we had so many things in back of our minds running. I had couple of girlfriends (of course at different times) but they had other boyfriends at the same time. And number one thing they had on their mind is was get money from you. What you wear and drive is what you are. People consider you obsolete if you wear non branded shoes or older models of branded shoes. I traveled extensively in the US and Canada. But in East Europe like Romania and Poland I found people very friendly. Now I am back in pakistan facing basic problems like traffic jams, noisy honking streets and so on but for some reason i feel worriless and relax. whenever i go out, people start to talk to you and you feel like home. everyone is super friendly and is available for help. however you cant really trust people with money though. hahahha. After living in USA for so long I do really miss many things about it though. the efficient system is definitely a big plus. and i have realized that some times i like being all alone for extensive period of times. but knowing that i can meet up anyone any time gives me peace of mind. i have realized hard way that man made martials can amuse you to some extent only. you need live beings are you.

Great video. My first cultural shock in the US was when someone called the police ?‍♀️ on me for sitting in front of a staircase in an apartment complex. They almost charged me criminally for trespassing!!! Coming from ?? Ghana, where we co-live and co-share and co-relate, I was ? shocked. Human beings are social beings. Our innate nature is to inter-depend on others. Once that contract is broken, society won’t be be the same. Most kids in the US are raised indoors and this has serious effects on them growing up. They become anti-social, less empathetic and depressed. Another factor worth considering is the abundance of ☀️ Sunlight. Yes the sun we sometimes complain about in Africa provides vitamin D which helps your serotonin (happiness gland). So it gets worse when you have less sunshine in US and stay indoors.

Hi... Great video and explanation about Canadian System... I'm planning to migrate to Toronto considering a Software Engineer Position (15 years experience), with a Big Family (4 childrens) and spouse of course. But what about a salary150K yearly? These numbers are flexible? What is your opinion about Public School Programs?\n\nRegards

So Newfoundland and Labrador, Nunavut, the Northwest Territories and the Yukon, as well as Saskatchewan are just cold desolate wastelands? Try coming to Canada to see for yourself. Your opinion is so extraordinarily unsupported by fact you really should be horribly embarrassed, and perhaps consider leaving youtube for something less intellectually demanding.

I found the video interesting not the order I would have expected. Especially since I have considered moving to another province it has given me some good choices. I was curious if climate change had factored in since it wasn't mentioned, I worry about living in places like BC where my oldest best friend moved to recently, since past few years there has seen forest fires and last years floods I hesitate moving there myself. It was my first pick prior. Hmmm

I have a doubt, my wife is doing her masters from nova Scotia but she has to study online for her first semester from India, now because of this she will not be able to fulfill the condition of 16 months in Canadabefore graduation. Though ircc has announced that any study done online from outside canada will be considered in Canada but not sure if that time will be considered in Atlantic province. If you have any idea about this, it would be great help

Hi Jason. This video was indeed very helpful and clearly explained. \nI was rejected study visa twice to Canada a year back. If I apply to this PR program , will this be considered separate from my previous study visa application or will I be judged based on my rejection before.\nThanks in advance :)

I’m a born and raised Canadian and I’m seriously considering leaving

As someone from Toronto the housing is so expensive and i have no clue how the crime rates are so low considering the news everyday. personally I love Nova Scotia

The refugee path after they've been accepted is a one year Federal paid Settlement allowance. Roughly the size of the CERB benefit. Once the year expires, they fall off the Federal books and become income support recipients with child tax benefits. At this point, the sponsor is considered to have fulfilled their obligation.

Land of money laundering! If you come with money, yes, you can make more money. People are mostly fake polite, cold in general, self oriented. Healthcare is a disaster. God help you if you get really sick and wait for a specialist. Hidden racism everywhere. By the way , I am talking about Vancouver, not sure about Eastern Canada. The only good side is a beautiful nature! I think people should consider move to USA rather than Canada. Canada is ruined for the past 7 years.

As someone who spend some time in Vancouver, really considered to get more years visa I will compare with my home country Czech Republic and European-Union at all. I only find benefits in Canada:\n - big Czech comunities in Vancouver and Rockies and Toronto, its very heartwarming spending time with these people, getting contacts etc.\n- incredible nature\n- stay far from Russia (these days)\n\nBut It is not so big deal in case of money (pay/living ration), payed holiday (we have 5 weeks as standard), healthcare (I know people who FLY FROM CANADA TO EU for dentist) and distances. LIke evening trip after work is almost impossible. Going abroad is soooo far compare to Europe etc. I love Canada, at least for roadtrips, but I am not sure if starting from scratch, getting canadian experience really trade off

If someone is considering coming to Canada, especially recently, consider this..... The cost of living is high, the cost to buy a house is out of reach for many Canadians, taxes are many and high, government regulations are many, the present Liberal Trudeau government is not Liberal but it is a fascist/authoritarian government, many police are brutal and arrest and imprison people for protesting peacefully, they have fined, arrested and imprisoned Pastors for conducting church service and feeding the homeless, the Canadian dollar is low with less buying power, inflation is high, there has never been such high government debt, the government can order the banks to freeze your money, it is cold, opportunity is not that available, racial discrimination is here and by the government (i am Caucasian), the country is in such debt that we can go broke and the dollar further devalued. Corrupt money laundering is almost accepted by officials. There are better countries to immigrate than to Canada.

Sir I Am Assistant professor in College...My teaching experience is consider for Canada PR(Express Entry)or not??

1. Does she know that us white skin tone indians don't even 222spyyyyit on white race, and identity as brown race.\n2. She is so dum that she won't even know that nazis, don't used to consider indians of white skin as of white race.

The best advice I can give a prospective immigrant is to have a job offer in Canada before you consider immigrating. If you are coming to study then look at a what jobs you could do in Canada when you graduate and whether you know enough English and French to study here.\n\nCanada does not encourage unskilled immigrants to come to the country. However there's a lot of trades like construction that are looking for workers. If you can do industrial welding for example, you can get a job right now.\n\nThe final thing to consider is whether you are willing to live in a smaller town or even rural area as that's where the growth in jobs are and where housing is more affordable. \n\nTaxes are higher but not higher than some Scandinavian countries. In the USA you have to pay for private insurance which can be about $1500/ month for a small family.

I enjoy your videos Adam. I'm American and considering immigrating to Canada. I've been to Vancouver a few times and also consider Nova Scotia. Would love to hear your opinion/comparison of B.C. vs Nova Scotia.
