I wasn't born in Canada, but raised in small city of Fredericton since 10 and moved to Toronto for jobs and school in 2014. I don't even recognize my country anymore, it is such a big shame. At least, I had experienced a simple Canadian dream life back in New Brunswick.

We need a big change in Canada

My husband & I used to be one of those homeless people on those Toronto streets. The shelters are a big joke! We were both born & raised here

Yep! And they've been shipping these homeless people up North on buses and trickling them into small unprepared communities since the first lockdown in 2020. OUR MAYORS HAVE DONE NOTHING.. IT IS A BIG SECRET--except you cant hide homeless drug addicts.

This is really big problem \n?

The world is a giant turd, Canada was better but has become just as big of a toilet!\nSend all your turds to Canada and fill our bowl!\nWhen money is the only goal for anything in life greed will always win over what is right!

The homeless industrial complex to big to fail , the landlord elites have allowed all our politicians to become landlords even our housing minister is one so do you think they are flooding our country with foreign students and opening our borders to millions of migrants isn't to push housing costs to the moon so they can put more money in their pockets YOUR DAMB RIGHT , the same people that have lobbied for the soft on crime laws that are causing retailers to shutter their doors are buying up the properties at firesale prices including devaluing housing in the high crime areas then buying them all up , watch for plan B and that will be getting billions in government grants to use their properties to house all the homeless and feeding them through their online markets because there will be no brick and mortar stores WIN WIN for the elites who caused this insanity WAKE UP

So many youtubers doing videos like this in American cities, i.e. Tommy G. I think it’s fantastic that we now have one for Canada. Big respect.

I live in the country on a farm and our small town nearby has homelessness, but I had no idea it was this bad everywhere in the big city. Edmonton doesn't seem as bad, but perhaps we are just lagging behind. I have seen Vancouver is even worse, perhaps THE worst. Like zombies on the street and firearms hidden in the tents.

Yes, Palestinians don’t want to leave and that’s why Egypt puts up a wall so big and so wide. They don’t want Palestinians care not if they die. That is the plain truth.

how come these arabs seem so much fkn smarter than the rest of the world big words my guys respect!

I am a Scarborough YouTuber, I ride around and explore the history of Toronto, I can show you old encampments in the don valley. A lot were bulldozed back when the don valley redivision started where they made the river more smooth so in events of another hurricane like hazel all shanty in the don valley were torn down and their bricks and stuff from the broken down buildings were used for it. Tommy Thompson park is another place where old 50s encampments went due to the fact they weren’t built up to code, many were from cabbage town. Homeless has a always had their history here in Toronto especially in the largely Irish community during the Irish independence movement. There hasn’t been a big change since the 1940s

I know this happens but I also had someone make me empty my pockets at a Big V in Windsor Ontario and I am a white female.

I would disagree with the cost of groceries. I still think it's quite reasonable here. House is outrageous though. I wouldn't say that health care is bad but it's not great. You'll have to wait for chronic issue but for immediate help we do oretty well. I'd ask to look at the life expectancy and death rate to prove otherwise. A big problem is a lack of good paying jobs.

I used to want to be a father and have a big family. Now, I can't see myself ever owning a home and I make 80k a year in Ontario. This is unsustainable. I am 28 years old and have given up on that dream of a family.

And right now all immigrants are taking the low level job from canadians who needs them as well as housing supply and else. Its a catch 22 problem, this country need to make big changed

He‘s lying big time

Why dont Arab help Palestinians-you lot have control of oil and the other goods,but Arab world are only good in making haram things,like night clubs,and alcohol allowed,mbs,I had respect for you,but your a big chawal,just like some people I have in my ex-so called family,Alhamdulillah Ameen Allah swt,has disconnected me,Allah Akhbar ❤❤❤

Non of this are true people they just want more and more , big house money car , go to work get a simple salary live a simple life save money , enjoy be happy

This is what Britain Colonists did to their ancestors who have now come to roost !\nIt’s PAY BACK TIME, Big time, I say ??

the big question is.... why Gay-land (canada) is keeping Trudea as a Lider???

Canada!! BIG MISTAKE !!

It would be like you know just so Barbie if suddenly like you know the home less like you know suddenly doing a big dance routine like you know from the Barbie movie?It would be like you know so Barbie!Wear the Pink like you know??????????️??

For some nations Canada turned into nightmare by spoof call attack. Many people died or killed. This kind of attack using impersonation by foreign country agents to target some people like me and many of my friends. Unfortunately most Asian and black and Latino people easily get fooled and used as a tool for attacker to target some people. Drug problem is another big issue in Canada and USA but fortunately gun violence is less than US. Healthcare getting worse everyday. Bad neighborhood experience which destroyed my health for life mostly because of spoof call attack. Bad policing which killed many innocent people. Woke laws and culture which marginalized men who are driving force of society. Very weird working experience. Work for yourself or get enslaved by another employer that's why people would love to work for government. Housing prices skyrocketing in big cities and there is no foreseeable future for its remedy. Cold weather for six month of year and at the end COVID force closure killed many of people and hospitalization was so bad. Anywhere there was no hospitalization people life were saved. There is no open market like many countries which are backed by government to buy goods in reasonable price for low income people. Very restricted laws for driver license. Life in Canada is far from normal kills you or make you disable for life without getting you paid. Now I disabled for couple of years and I'm outside of Canada and just my family saved my life because I couldn't work because of disability due to spoof call attack which cause severe peripheral neuropathy. Even there is no any protocol for this illness to get cured and forced me to see many MDs and cost me lots of money. Just stay away from Canada which is a nightmare and my sickness cost me not be able to protect my family and died because of that. Canada is a hell

It's a Big idea New World Disorder nonsense Satanic Madness !! This is World Wide Madness!!!!

Immigrants used to come into this country with hard works and immigrant mentality, while Canada still had big corporates to offer good opportunities. However, new immigrants these days are not as qualified, self-entitled, and no opportunity offered at all. I mean, what kind of visa students would go on protest for failing their exams?

I live in Kitchener, just one hour from Toronto. Tent cities are here big time too. No immigrants in them. Like the guest said immigrants FIRST! They are taking our available housing and jobs. The rest is TOO much for YouTube. Telling too much truth is offensive to them.? Justinflation , remember that next election.

Sad to see our country leaving veterans on the streets. \nThis is probably one of the reasons our military is in a death spiral. We need to have strong defence in such a big country, what if one of the larger violent nations decided to invade our north? Who's gonna go there and protect our lands? The bears and penguins?

?go in russian then just live my country alone ! \nStay away from big city ! ?

Their religion is a big joke

The job shortages are remote jobs no one wants to do or apply. A regular job in a big city has hundreds people apply. Go figure.

You are true ?Br Trudo and his team are big liers and evils are killing our all jobs safty, peace and creating social unhealthy behaviors and third world slavery culture in Canada our born young Canadians students couldn't find jobs or loosing jobs they are forced to staying home ?? what idiot are Trudo and his team

Express entry brings good people …. \n\nLabor shortage is a way for immigrant owned businesses to get LMIA permits that sell for 35k to 50k per person in the form of closed work permit. Most closed work permit employees know what slavery looks like ….these number never show up in Govt numbers and this is a big burden on tax payers…\n\nStudents in useless diplomas are also here to get PR in any way.. they pay their way into PNPs to get PR if need arises….your Master and P hD folks are not in that line… but who knows if 360k limit would impact those good guys more than the diploma students

I'm watching this from a camp at the edge of the city... Canada has become unsurvivable... I'm working poor... And shelter system is broken for working class folk... Big money in homeless industrial complex. It's a manufactured system and it's designed to make it a revolving door to keep people down and out.

great video man hitting one of the big true reasons for the homeless crisis in this country... keep it up and keep telling truth.

If we have a housing crisis and healthcare crisis, why do we keep bringing in enormous numbers of people we can neither house nor care for?\nThe answer is simple... Money.\nAre you an employer who's fed up with paying your employees a living wage?\nAre you a developer wanting to buy-up some protected land to build mansions that will be paid for with offshore money?\nOr one looking to build yet another condo tower in an already overly crowded and under-serviced big city?\nNo problem... Just buy a few politicians and bureaucrats and have at it. \nWe'll bring in the unskilled immigrants and bypass any regulations or planning common-sense and you'll be on your way.\n\nThe powerful are making unprecedented amounts of money at the expense of everybody else and every political party has been bought and is complicit in the selling-out of the working class.

Everywhere we go, most of the people are so much disappointed and frustrated for some or the other reason. In a small or big encounter, It is very common to see how we loose patience very quickly.

What the point of moving there ??? Is big hoax/scam as long as you have a house in your home country and a job to cover your bills what's the point stressing yourself for visas,paying someone's elses house cost of living is extraordinary, authoritarian with treaudu so if you weight all this its waste of time and waste of life just to become a robot for the Canadian system to keep it alive ??

Mass immigration post-nationalism is a recipe for disaster. Cultures with non-compatible view all merge into a big mess.

Disillusioned is a good word. They unknowingly get trapped in the big cities. After ten years they realize they are going nowhere.

The Liberal government is simply leaving a big mess to the next elected government, so it might have a slight chance to return. They don't give a f about Canadians, it's just a part of their plans.

LOL, everybody goes to the big cities. Yet there's not enough people out in the prairies or North territories. I get offered jobs every time i talk to people.

The systemic racism and blm was covertly funded attack by the elites against the middle class who happened to be mostly white. Democratic laws were in the way of their agenda. Social engineering through the mass media and big tech thought control through manipulation

I migrated from the UK and really, things aren't much better at home. That's why i'm sticking it out. London rents are equivalent to Toronto, with a similar average salary. UK taxes also look ok on paper, but wheny you include the hidden stuff it's just as bad as canada. Healthcare also going down the gutter. The only positive the UK has over canada is food is much cheaper and if you are able to work from home, you can live away from big cities and pay much less rent. This huge difference between big cities and towns in the UK doesn't seem to be as noticeable in Canada. For an entire 3 bed house with a garden in the north of england, you could get one for $1000/month easy. But there are no job opportunities there at all, so it really is only for WFHers. But I think these issues are sweeping most of the western world... our economic models are built on infinite growth and can't deal with aging populations with an increasing tax burden.

Next big youtuber right here;) In all seriousness, this is such a big problem. Something needs to be done.

I'll be honest, hiring international students is the best decision I've made for myself at my place of work. Modern parents have failed our country by raising useless, uninspired, unmotivated, disrespectful little leaches who would rather sit at home playing video games, watching anime and aspiring to be the next big social media influencer, than actually contribute to society in any positive way.

hahahaha saudi arabia is big liar

Real MAN SITS NoT CROSSING LEGS ONLY WOMEN CROSS LEGS SPEAKING OF ECONOMY BIG MISTAKE NO JOB for MIGRANTS Canada is Ressesion .

When they see the demand sxceed supply, it depresses salaries and benefits. Why pay more? That's a big factor in this policy shift. More profits.

honestly tho, housing crisis and healthcare problems are prevalent everywhere, so it feels like not so much too big a thing to consider, because its all just the same now :(
