If Canada doesn't import more immigrants, how is the GDP supposed to go up?

I'm Canadian and left Canada in 2022. I also transferred both my companies and most my assets (except my Canadian real-estate) and it's the best decision I ever made.

It feels like it’s going to get worse. I don’t think I’ve ever heard of people having to leave Canada cuz it’s unaffordable like what’s been happening.

Canada we're paying Switzerland prices without any of the Switzerland quality. Thanks to our entitled politicians who feel like they can spend tax payer money aimlessly. You can't throw money at world problems, which is what the disillusioned entitled upper class politicians think in this country. Easy to spend other people's money I guess.

How to apply secority job in Canada..??

Canada isn't a great country.

It's not only people who are leaving, even big corp. like Sears, Target , HSBC, Lowe's and most recently Nordstrom. They figured how hard to make money here in Canada. and I figured it too that's why I'm leaving.

It’s super crazy to even have Canadians experience and find a job. More like you need to have local experience or communal experience (I live in the maritimes so that’s an example). Forget applying online anymore especially in Canada

How did Canada share a border with Canada??

are you also going for the passport of canada?

All my friends who are immigrants come to get there citizenship in Canada, because it is so easy to become a Canadian citizen and then get that passport.

Canada live off the immigrants that is why Canadians are so lazy

Australia has more jobs than Canada.

In Canada life depends on us..we make our own destiny

Once I get my visit visa I’ll surely book an appointment with you before I come to Canada \nYou are nothing but a light to us to see things clearly \nGod bless you ChokorMillionaire

We don't need you in Canada! Just leave!

Prices went up at every country after pandemic, so don't get fooled about it. Salaries are not better in Europe either. Housing, owning it is worse in Europe, so Canada shines.\nBut I agree for experience and degrees. Degree doesn't add any value at all. Even in cleaning job, you get asked for a Canadian experience. \nYou are a foreigner, it doesn't matter where you are from, if employer can see it on your accent, you are dumned.

I immigrated to Canada with 15 years of experience in IT and I worked in English English-speaking countries before coming to Canada. However, they do not consider my overseas English. It took me 6 months to get a programmer job in Canada. Most employers requested Canadian experience.

It's a problem of both Indian and Canadian government. Canadian government assumes no responsibility of int'l students as it's a privilege to study abroad for anyone. BUT stopping exploitation of int'l is Canada's ethnical and lawful obligation

Canadians are incredibly selfish Canada has a duty and a right to take in underdeveloped and impoverish people for the greater global good not to make 1st world problem crybabies lives better

I just want to comment on the transportation. It seems that you forgot that Canada is much larger compare to Germany, or Singapore, or even Europe. As Canada is the 2nd largest country in the world after Rusia. That's why it's challenging and expensive to expand the transportation system. As you can see as well in USA, which is similar

The great replacement is real.\nLook around.\nImmigration is the number one problem in Canada.\nThe violence the food, living and housing costs.\n???

Canada, lease do NOT get them from those Islamic countries. They suck at integration. \n* Show me ONE country where Muslims have integrated well?\n* Show me ONE muslim country where non-muslims are treated equally. \nIf Canada must bring in from those regions, bring in those minorities like Yazidees, Chrisitan, Hindus .... who are persecuted because of their religious status.

I love Canada and I love the fact its mixing so many cultures in together, but we just can't keep up at the current pace. Another thing lots of people have an issue with is the lack of diversity in the immigrants. Our services and lifestyles are being strained to the point where people are getting sick of it, put a cap on each country and only allow that cap to be broken for asylum seekers/refugees. This isn't a cultural/race issue either and people who say this shouldn't be called racist, I mean its honestly insane to call it racist when the very immigrants you bring in are making the same points.

Stop illegals to enter Canada, even asylum-seekers. These people pay thousands of dollars to human smugglers just to get into another country. Their government should serve them, not to entice them to flee from their own country

canada should stop bringing more alredy job crises rent is too high also they giving visite visa without check there background

Canada has become a joke under JT and I don't see any real solutions from PP either.

Canada has been a dump for the UN as long as Trudeau has been in office, enough with the illegal immigration it’s destroying beautiful nations like ours.

Without immigration Canada would be a failed state. Canadians are lazy and entitled.

Nobody in canada wants more immigration. There is literally no positives to immigration.

I was born in M.J. Sask, I will be leaving canada as soon as I get my nursing certificate. This is not just an immigrant issue.

I believe that every location has its own Pros and Cons... \ndepending on your needs and goals.\n \nIt's important not to have unrealistic expectations of any specific country (especially Canada) \n \nThe key is to find a place that meets your needs and be willing to accept the drawbacks. \nGive it a chance and see how it goes!

Hi sis I have a question do I need to have NIN before I apply for Canada visiting visa?

Seriously, if you're coming from another country, and under the impression that you'll have a better life in Canada, you're wrong, and about 20 years too late. This country is an absolute mess right now, and it'll only get worse in the short term. If your mind is truly set on coming here, wait a few years. If you come now, you're going to be sorely disappointed. And broke. And possibly homeless.

Avoid Canada unless you want to waste decades of - the golden era is long long gone

The winner stays in Canada and the loser goes back to third world countries like China this is reality

Canada - common sense laws regarding gun ownership \nUSA - 565 mass shootings in 2023 alone

It's not only in Canada it's everywhere like that

imagine leaving iran, one of the most oppressive regimes only to say canada is way worse. tragedy

Borned and raised in Canada. Thinking about leaving as well. Definitely not retiring in Canada.

If canada is such a easy country then thier population shoul increase fast but it stays same white canadians are not having much children thats why government bring immigrants husband a wife both work no time to make kids or give them time ??

Stop bringing in refugees and only accept skilled workers that canada needs.

Punjabis, Indians and Africans are leaving too? Canada became third world country to increase population. And for this reason the cream of people aren't coming but the garbage is piling here. US is great country and don't allow garbage to pile up as well as Australia. Just wait few years more and you will see what Canada would look like.

Canadian here.\n1) I love gloomy days too! Winter is the best! \n2) All your criticisms (job-searching, health care, housing costs) apply to average Canadians too -- it has got much worse here in the past fifteen years, especially the past five years.\n3) I am sorry to hear your view on freedom-loving Canada. I think there is a culture war playing out and the core issues have not been solved yet. I think average Canadians love their freedom!\n4) Now that you say it, yes it is hard to make friends here. We are introverted and reserved people with those we don't know. But behind closed doors, I think we are quite loud and rowdy. We simply do not want to hurt anyone's feelings :)

At the end of the day we are all trying to improve our lives. Some will make it further than others. In the grand scheme of things Canada is not that bad at all. You can do a video like this for any G20 country and you will find good reasons. What's important is we have choices and we can choose. Many do not have that privilege.

These are all very valid points and unfortunately, most of these are the result of the inept government. As an immigrant from Indonesia who has been in Toronto for over 30 years, it wasn't always like this. I hope Canada can return to the way it was eventually.

Such a sober and thoughtful review of life in Canada for immigrants. Immigrating to Canada this January and your perspectives are appreciated ❤️??

Its because Canada is turning into a dump. Not hard to see. A country that sells out its own citizens.

Oh no, God bless Canada

15:50 just like to point out that this graph is not an accurate representation of the current views on immigration in Canada. Due to the opening of our borders to a country of over 1B people, sometimes you will look around and be surrounded by 80% Indians. And the people here do not like it. More than I've ever seen before, from talking between friends and posts on social media, there is dislike of immigrants in Canada.
