Do agree with you guys on the drag queen/education indoctrination degradation of Canada .

I would hope you could find happiness in Canada. One of my concerns about living in a theocratic country would always be, is this choice really your own? Can you ever be certain, if faced with violations of your rights, that the choice is really yours? And, if not, can you consider yourselves as choosing Islam, rather than being forced into it, even if in absence of theocratic rule, you would have chosen it anyways? Maybe I’m overthinking it. I have the tendency to do that. I think if I were Muslim, I might choose Tunisia. I’ve known people from Tunisia and it sounds like they’re pretty open-minded, but still obviously predominantly Muslim. I’ve been to Dubai, and while I see many people recommending it, I honestly thought it was the worst combination of East and West. All the commercialization of the West, but none of the democracy. Plus, if you are not native Emiratis, you will always be second class. I’m from the US in what I think is the mini-Canada (ok, the Twin Cities) and we have a big Muslim community, but I’m very concerned Trump will win again in 2024, and I don’t know what will come of it. My daughter is part Afghani, but raised Catholic because her father’s side is irreligious. But I still worry for her, looking like she does and carrying that last name. People are so awful.

I AM REALLY REALLY HAPPY THAT BOTH OF YOU are leaving. You should have immigrated to a MUSLIM FAITH based country ie. DUBAI, SAUDI ARABIA.\nWhy CANADA?????\nOUR culture, and majority of citizens are CHRISTIANS THUS it is foreign to you.

All credit goes to JT for making Canada hell

If I was them I’d boycott Canada and never return.

Leaving is not a big deal without the renunciation of the canadian citizenship. Because when you'll not be happy in the country you'll go to live in, there is a great possibility that you want to return to canada. And THAT will be a malicious behavior.

Great news!!!!❤ All muslims from Canada, US and Europe should do the same! Move back as soon as possible to some muslim country! Everybody will be happy, for sure!?

Canada is madness.

Enjoy. I love Canada, outdoor activities, freedom of thought, and Not living in a muslim country (though I've visited Malaysia for a month once as a white women non muslim and the call to prayer all day I can understand being very very cool)\nBorn here, will not run away unless im in immediate danger \nGood luck and i think living where your values align is much more resoectable than coming here ans trying ro change it

Many Muslim friends. Lived in many Muslim majority countries. I would argue that in The West u will have more advantages than many Muslim majority countries. Although I do not live in Canada I have a Muslim relative who loves living in Canada. So best u do leave as the West was built on a non Muslim tradition. That said I have Muslim friends who are happily living in Western countries.

Canada has turned into a 3rd world shithole...

I think this is a wonderful idea. \nI truly feel most Muslims would be happier living in Muslim countries.\nAnd thank U for not changing our ways of life in Canada's.

Canada barbadi h

i wanna leave this hellhole canada, Trudeau government is awful, Taxes re super high and dont get me started on how much housing and food is!!

Why don't you say the real reason you want to live Canada? \nPlease stop trashed Canada

You didn’t mention the worst aspect of Canada: the dictatorship of the liberal politicians. You have no “Bill of Rights “ to prevent the oligarchs from making terribly oppressive rules that remove all rights worth mentioning. In other words, going down the path of the Progressives who despise personal freedoms (see USA).. moving to Canada would not increase our freedom to live.

Great! Canada doesn’t need antisemites. Bye ✌️

Move from Canada to gaza now please! Help free them from islamo-nazis now!

I guess your parents (maybe grandparents) moved to Canada as refugees, and milked that country for all the possible benefits and freebees for two or three generations. \nNow the country that welcomed you with open arms is no longer to your taste.\nYou are leaving, but you should've never been there. \nIf you had any decency you should renounce your Canadian citizenship.\nYou don't, so you won't. You're looking for some more gains from Canada.\nIf you had any pride you would travel with Palestine or Jordanian passports.

To me, it's shocking that through generations a family cannot embrace the culture that they opt for. That means that your family migrated to Canada for the wrong reasons.

CANADA IS A BITCH. Everyone is waking up and learning that Canada is trash

Hum ... you ll never adapt outside of Canada im afraid from what Im hearing. You ll run back after 3 months if Canada lets you back in.

My question is so many big comments by still people, students are keep coming to Canada…

canada is no different than north korea now; it's a s**thole communist country!

I left in 2006 for better opportunities. The city was declining back then but slowly. Come back for a visit every few years and astonished how awful getting around the city is and just how little the city has to offer. It mirrors the decay of Canada as a whole.

Born and raised in Van...23 years..have been in Japan 24 years. There is no question where is better. I will never move back to the ponzi scheme called Canada.

Pretty funny that you expected Canada to be an Islamic country. How the heck did you think that was going to the case? Canada is multicultural and Muslims are a small minority

More people like you should follow suit and leave Canada. Then when enough of you do leave, I might consider coming back.

Pierre Poilievre for Prime Minister! Then just then we might have a fighting chance to reclaim the Canada that once was and is taken from us from the tryanny of the messed up Liberal/ndp coilation

#7 - I disagree that this a Canadian only problem, it is NOT. You’ll have the same problem moving south of the border. This is the result of the digital age. People don’t go out and mingle as much as before. Specially in big cities. That is the price to pay when you move to another big city. It will take time BUT this is NOT a Canada only problem.

Uk has annual tv tax so that link tax must be from uk influence from days gone by. Canada is so big, they should build affordable housing and have tiered tax rate.

It is sad to see Canada fall into Authoritarianism

As a Canadian, born and raised, I am much more proud to be a Canadian than if I were to be a U.S. or U.K. citizen, given the way they are regarded in most of the word. I have travelled Europe extensively, Central America, as well as parts of SE Asia. \n\nCanada is indeed expensive and has become moreso because we too easily accept the rising prices, just so we can feel good being a Canadian. Tipping culture is ridiculous, even for bad service, many feel the need to tip 15% because of fear of being regarded as a cheapskate or avoiding offending the service provider. Companies should be paying their staff a better wage where 20%+ tips are not expected for every restaurant, cafe or delivery service. We're helping corporations make more profit by subsidizing their staffing expense. This isn't the case in most of the world. \n\nMy eyes were opened when I saw how you can live an equally good life at a third or less of the cost and I have grown open to the idea of living elsewhere once I have enough money to retire early (I'm talking around 55) and enjoy life without feeling cash-strapped. World class private medical care can be found for prices that are unbelievable and without the multiple appointments and wait times.\n\nI will always be a Canadian first, but there is room for a second citizenship or a backup plan should living in Canada become an impossible place to live or retire, unless you begin with a financial advantage. By no means am I poor, either. I got lucky with both real estate and stocks. Yet, I feel like I am working to just get by, while being taxed well beyond what I am getting in return.

I guess with the so many trees burnt in bushfires in Canada sooner or later there's going to be a new issue and that's serious air pollution.

Bro! Canada is still better than New Zealand. I moved to Australia due to same reason. Come to Australia bro! InshaALLAH you will be sweet as.

Canada was a great country before immigration ruined it.

What paperwork do I need to live in Canada if I'm American

Canada is Indioland.\nStay safe.(❤).

Excellent news, good riddance! Canada will be a better place without you. Please encourage all your friends and relatives to join you. \n\nJoe Tramblay, Sarnia

indians love canada

The Liberal Government and people who voted for a Drama teacher in power have basically screwed Canada for 8 years now. Canada has become a borderline communism country under the Liberals. This is why Alberta has a strong premier and I can see Alberta eventually separating. The leaving of the CPP is their first step to full autonomy.

Not hearing Adhan is one of the hardest part of living in Canada for me…?

You want Islamic prayers played over loud speakers in Canada five times a day? Good riddance.

Canada follows an agenda planned by globalists,neocons ,i think you are lucky to realize what's going on.May Allah be with you.

Wishing you the best on your move and journey to a new place. I was very unhappy in Canada and kept thinking it would just take time. 7 years later…. I’m out and starting a new life in Seattle.

The more she talks about Canada the cheaper I think it is. What do you mean only $2000 CAD for a 400 sq. ft studio?! To my canadian friends, things could be much worse. Don't worry about that.

The majority of people leaving Canada only came here to abuse the system and never had any intention of assimilating. Good Bye and Good Luck.

Very good ? leave Canada ??, otherwise also Canada don’t need Islamophobia

from Singapore to Canada? but why?

Mass immigration, that's Canada's issue today. What's happening in Toronto, is happening everywhere. Too many, too fast. Letting in anyone with a pulse, inevitably leads to more crime.
