Justin Trudeau’s Canada, ladies and gentlemen

Don't come to Canada, you are going to pay almost 40% income tax, after that income tax, you will pay sales tax 13%, plus outrage 18% to 25% tips everywhere you eat. Yes that 25% after tax money goes directly to tips.

Real Canadians need to take a stand here. The likes of Pakistanis and Khalistanis are propagators of Terrorism, drugs and religion fanaticism. You really need to get Trodeau out and get a Right aligned govt. Otherwise Canada is doomed.\nAll over the Democratic world, a Right movement is needed, otherwise this act of trying to be nice will be the doom of their cultures.

If you’re Black in Canada ?? then come to Vancouver or Toronto, it is much better in those cities.\nYeah I don’t like Edmonton and the weather in Edmonton is not good.

What Canada ??its kanlishtan

We need to take canada back!!

it is forcing Canadians to leave Canada as well

How many people are leaving Canada? I bet no one can find a number. ?

Hello from Montreal, it’s totally unfortunate that the country never planned for a population increase. Land is so expensive to even consider building low cost housing etc. There are other places to live in Canada other than Toronto and Vancouver but I do understand the high costs of living. But aren’t all countries having the same problem? Good luck to everyone.

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!

Every body like Canadian eh! Even the chinese are lined up to come to Canada.

I moved to Europe..Canada's a shitshow for the next decade

Canada is the North Korea of the Americas disguise on sheep clothes!

hang on a sec. 800K-900K house looks quite cheap. you will rarely see 1M dollars house in Asia such as Singapore, Seoul, Hong Kong and so on. you will need easily 2-3M dollars. the rental doesn’t look super expensive in Canada, either. which countries are cheaper than Canada unless you want to downgrade? if you think Canada is expensive, you will see other countries are crazy expensive. so stay there.

Political correctness is the most unattractive side of Canada. Nice people becoming victims of their need to please loud idiots.

canada must close its borders again.

I want to move to Canada from the US..will someone swap with me?

i live in canada for 40 years and i am from hong kong\nif not because of my children i left canada 10 years ago\nbut now i rather stay here due to the yellow people are still dominating hk\nand i would not allow the yellow education keep brain washing my kids

Canada went Woke and becomes Broke.

I earn only $75,000 USD per year and my wife earns around $50,000 USD per year and in Kingston JA we live really good house already fully paid off. Thought about moving to Canada and after lots of research and doing the math I realize that we were living better than 80% of Canadians. Many people from the Caribbean are running to Canada and I am clueless as to why.

Canada is losing it's middle class in order to cater to the richest of the rich... diversify Canada damn...spread the wealth around to all levels of business. Canada has a high failure rate for small business...100k less are starting businesses then from th 70s.

Please, how can I get in touch with the Japa system. I'm planning of coming to Canada n I want to use the Japa system

Canada is mot unique to these problems, there all over the planet. The grass is not always greener on the other side, far from it. We have a lausy prime minister, however; not for much long. For those wo want to run away, best of luck. I will not.

Canada is broken thanks to the current government! I would never vote liberals as long as tredooo is there

Trudeau will bring afganistans and palesitians reffugess to be slave there , i think they would live in Canada worse then in own countries

I wanted to move to Canada 20 years ago. After visiting a few times in the last five years or so, I'm glad I didn't. I love the people and the land, but government and the economy are more insane than here in the US.

Canada has the same problem as the United States: wrong kind of politicians elected. Like the U.S., most Canadians consider themselves compassionate liberals and thus feel obligated to vote for said, compassionate liberal politicians. The problem is, for Canada and the U.S., these compassionate liberal politicians don't know how to run the nation's economy except to run it further into the ground. And when the problems get really bad, the solution is always, raise taxes because liberal politicians are either Marxist Socialist and believe the citizenry are obligated to pay higher and higher taxes for more government intervention, meaning, interference, in most cases.\n Whenever Canada does get around to voting in a conservative prime minister and government, the Canadian mass media immediately goes on a years-long negative campaign of deliberately undermining the government in the eyes of the Canadian People, demeaning them as inept and uncompassionate and comparing them to fascists. Eventually the Canadian People get so distressed they have to vote back in the liberal party. And then the same happens again.\n I'm just glad our Canadian brothers are not blaming the U.S. government or the CIA, but instead are clear-headed and courageous enough to blame their own government and past legislations and laws that do the exact opposite of what is supposed to happen, level the playing field for all Canadians.\n I'm reading about the outrageous pricing of Canadian housing and am astonished. But one YouTuber explained this about his Canada. Everyone in Canada wants to squeeze into the few, concentrated urban areas that concentrate business, finance, manufacturing, job opportunities, et al. As it happens, these areas are too few and far between. So what ends up happening is geographical overpopulation, despite Canada having a total population of around 32 million souls. People in California can certainly understand this phenomenon. You can purchase a 3-bedroom house out in California City, which is near the Mojave Desert, for $176,000, but there's nothing out there to make it worthwhile living there. Conversely, a tiny, 3-bedroom home in Torrance, Los Angeles, was selling for $800,000 in 2018. \n As realtors put it this way all the time, location, location, location!\n I'm going to pass on commenting on Canada's National Health Care. I've read criticisms from native Canadians on the Internet. As Canadians, they're entitled to say whatever they want about their country. If I, a Yank, open my big mouth, I'm going to get trolled by a hundred angry Canadians defending their National Health Care as the world's greatest socialized medical care. Health Care is already expensive enough in the U.S. Most people get it through their employer, which pays a part of it. But employees' monthly deductions for health insurance have been growing steadily over the past 30 years to where it's now a huge chunk out of one's monthly paycheck.

I lived in the USA for many years and Canada has many good points.\nFree health care, lower crime, less guns, less poverty, I get the feeling that this is a conservative hit job

I'm am leaving Canada after 6 years here, going to central Europe: Higher salaries, stronger currency, way more PTO, more sick days, lower taxes, also free health insurance but way shorter waiting times, less crime, the cities aren't filled with drug zombies and homeless encampments, etc. etc.

Canada is in ruins (I’m Canadian). We need a stable government run by adults.

Noone wants to live in Canada anymore because spineless liberals sold this country down the river while telling everyone with a straight face the cons did it. 44 billion dollars spent on Ontario Healthcare this year, a budget decided by the premier, and liberals are complaining about the state of the Healthcare system. Have you ever heard of a time when 44 billion dollars went into one provinces Healthcare system for one year? \n\nNewsflash: it didn't give us the great healthcare system 44 billion dollars would have because most of that money had to be funneled into paying off liberal policy expenses. Then the same people will tell you Doug Ford is responsible.\n\nYeah Doug Ford is responsible for a sustained overspending effort by the liberals, and especially so when he had to pay their debts. Liberal debts just aren't necessary to pay I suppose, unless you're conservative. Liberals currently have no plan even because they realize their voters are hateful, spiteful people who will cut off their nose to spite their face so the plan is sink the upcoming conservative government in debt and come back in 8 years pretending to not have been the original problem.

I dont know much about Canadian quality, but i do know Air Canada was the worst airline ive ever been on.

Canada is a place for tourists to spend their money instead of living for average people.

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.

Canada and Australia are too expensive to live in haha there is a trick to get rid of Muslims.

True but with little bit increase in pay countries like gulf are ok in all aspects in fact even asean countries in all aspects especially weather ,people ,spending , nature, etc but people feel a fake proudness when it comes to uk USA Canada or Australia ??

I moved back to Canada after years moving up the executive ladder. Came to Canada to find it a parochial backwater. Sadly having a child kept me here. I've left again and couldn't be happier! Beware the Canadian lie. Its a frozen provincial burg.

So much for being this liberal progressive idea of a utopia. I met people from Canada who confirmed how terrible the healthcare is.

It's only a matter of time before huge chunks of Canada get absorbed into the US.

Why does no one (other than the Chinese) want to live in Canada? That is an easy one. (Justin T?urdhole) and his policies.

I agree, but come on, u are from Iran, probably the worst country for a woman on earth, u shouldn't be saying that Canada sucks.

The situation is crazy pretty much everywhere when it comes to housing prices, and all the Western countries are suffering more than the others with Canada probably the most inflated.

I never thought about the reason why Canada would allow the monopolies, and your explanation makes sense (it doesn't make sense we pay this much for groceries though ?). Your explanation about the housing market also makes a lot of sense, thank you for sharing these ideas with us. And yes, I decided to leave Canada after a year ?

Canada Cost Of Living Expenses Is Caused By The United States Australia And Other Developed Countries

Canada is at least better than where they are from, especially China.

Every place has its own pros and cons. No place is perfect. Definitely you are more secure in Canada compared to India, but that too because of people only. There are many factors which you have to take into consideration, you have to adapt. If you go with a mindset that you keep on comparing India at every step and that too in initial years, then definitely you will never feel at ease.

Hardeep Singh is destroying Canada and its culture

Canada needs to implement and put forward a legalized system of immigration and be careful about who we let into our country as people!

Canada has become a ricochet country

I knew a few immigrants who actually went to jail in Canada, because they ended broke and didn't have enough money to leave Canada.
