Getting people to live in Canada and not the GTA is the problem Canada has lots of housing and vacant land to build on but everyone wants to live in the congested city. Government should have incentives to leave Toronto and populate the north.

Thanks for the insightful video! I was thinking of moving to Canada from Finland and Latvia in a few years to escape the looming war with Russia (I am no soldier by nature at all), but now I started having second thoughts about the plan. Finland is actually similar to Canada across several of the points you mentioned, but the cost of living is, surprisingly, still OK here. I do love proper winters, northern boreal nature and introverted people, however :)

Don't und why indians are so crazy about moving to Canada. Stop watching bullywood movies who glamourises western countries. There are no work opportunities there. Bad weather...extreme cold, severe depression. Zero socializing, crazy inflation. Canada immigration is all about fooling people and getting them invest their hard earned money and ending up being a cheap labor.

Vote out Liberals and Justin Trudeau and save Canada

Everything outlined in the video is A-O-K with me. The segment about Canada's sane, civilized and responsible approach to firearm ownership is alone, enough for me to drop everything and live there!

There is NO DREAM in Canada. The doctors, electrical engineers, and financial professionals have Big waste of time here. A very well experienced Doctor from say India has got way more practical experience and surgery. What all they need time is to get some system training. A Dentist, ophthalmologist, heart surgeons, orthopedic and so on with small training they can be easily absorb in the system after thorough check on skills.

funny, this was never an issue before Trudeau, but let's do the Canadian thing and not say or think it. Everything's fine. Trudeau is great. Canada is better than ever before.

Since I immigrated to CANADA, 28yr was the same law!unfortunately you have to go back to school! Yes if you don’t like it, can move to another country,

Canada is too cold for you -Get out.

Everyone should leave Canada! It’s a dictatorship and waist of life.

Both my parents respective countries are cheaper, safer and have better social services than Canada, despite having smaller economies. It is easier to buy property in those coutnries too. I'm not surprised immigrants are leaving. \n\nWe are now a country where nationals are getting older and the only thing keeping the population from declining is immigration. If immigrants stop coming I am not sure Canadians will be ready for the decrease in the standard of living that will cause. Corporate landlords, banks and REITs will be just fine lol fml.

Welcome to Canada baby !!!! thanks Justin ???

Maybe don't move to the most expensive city in Canada ?

This is not entirely unlike what women experience. If you go to the Indian consulate in Canada, you would find they behave similarly. The situation has improved a lot compared to 2015 and 2016. I lost my passport in Canada and was living 300 kilometers away from Toronto. When I went to the Toronto consulate to get my passport (now everything is done by BLS, but it wasn't the case back then), the officer, despite knowing I had all the necessary documents, insisted I obtain an unnecessary police document related to an FIR. I was surprised and pleaded extensively, but was still told to go back and return with the document. When I returned, the police officer told me they don't issue such documents. I went back to the consulate and was still denied. I protested there for 20-30 minutes. Eventually, with the same documents I initially presented, I obtained my passport. Such incidents used to be quite common.

Had Canada's politicians prioritized the best interests of the people, the extensive immigration we are currently witnessing would have been avoided altogether. The majority of Canadians expressed opposition to mass immigration from non-European countries, but unfortunately, these sentiments were dismissed. Consequently, it is not surprising that the current wave of immigrants finds themselves disillusioned with politicians who are seemingly not prioritizing their interests – a situation that, in reality, should not come as a surprise.

Canada's health care system is not the same everywhere. Montreal has a Chinese hospital in Chinatown; it gets test results much faster than regular clinics. McGill University Health Centre (MUHC) is a state of the art hospital in Canada and provides English health care services in Montreal.

A government that actively seeks to make the founders of Canada a British-based country a minority in their own country is genocide.

100% bang on.. I've lived in Dubai (traveled to many other countries).. this is nowhere near being considered as developed anymore (GDP criteria is outdated)..Canada got developed and they forgot to update and even upgrade..!! The drug situation is so bad that I really hope that you didn't come across crackheads/homeless who are under the influence of drugs at all times.. No doubt there are way more homeless people in India, but they are working or at least trying in some way to make their life better and they never hurt you at least, here, it's the opposite, as they literally can do anything.. you can find them roaming all over on the streets of Old Toronto, Vancouver, Ottawa.. You can literally find them everywhere.. someone commented earlier that you should give 2 years.. Bro or sis.. it's a complete waste as I am at the same point.. and on top of it when you invested 2 years, it even becomes tougher as it becomes even harder to go back as you have spent so much on furniture, house, car, tools, n all and most importantly - 2 YEARS of life. I left my pregnant wife and have been staying away from her and a 1-and-a-half-year-old baby boy hoping that we'll create a better future and can afford to struggle right now.. its been 2+ years.. Honestly.. I am still not able to figure out whether there is any future or I have spoiled my present looking for a future.. its a dilemma beyond explanation in words, with no relatives or anyone based here.. I've a lot at stake currently and that's the only reason I am stuck otherwise leaving this place seems to be inevitable.. \n\nI travel extensively all throughout and forget about expressways anywhere in Canada (Except 407 which has an insane toll rate) it's a 4-lane highway just 80 km from Toronto to the rest of 450+ kms to Montreal which are 2 major cities of this so-called developed country.. same is for Ottawa, the same hold true from Calgary to Edmonton, and any other major town/city!! on top of it, they are struggling to even maintain those (always under construction - even construction is a wrong word to use as they aren't adding anything new.... it is just being repaired in true words) Same is true with adding new infra in terms of hospitals or any other facility... Banking sucks.. Still dealing through the mail (Postal mail).. (Mails not e-mails). I simply can't get that.. the tax agency - CRA sends communications through the mail, and the same with any other agency.. Comon.. grow up is what I feel at times..!! People are literally not willing to work (Except hard-working immigrants), Govt. doesn't have any plans for the future regarding the economy and development... just bringing in immigrants.. that's it..\n\nYou've made a very smart decision and really at a very good time.. wish you, and your family all the best..!!

Can I apply to the school after i enter Canada with my study permit

Yes but you don't take into consideration the high level of illegal residents that overstay. \nThe low salaries from massive immigration keeps skilled workers in an artificialy low wage. This is why many leave to work elsewhere for higher salaries. The system benefits employers in Canada, not Canadisn residents. \n\nhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3084189/

I live in canada and used to think, may be i am the only one facing all these problems and feelings of that emptiness, doing everything on your own, no jugaad, and the drugs issues etc.etc..i agree with you for every single word you have spoken...i see some people judging for your returning to own country and giving importance to own mental health

Hi???????. Canada mein coffee shop

As a Canadian who has lived in almost all the provinces and territories, all my life, I can tell you that a lot has changed as I think the best time or era was in the 1970's and you may have come at the worst time as the worst appears to be now when everything has become too expensive. The other problem relates to Canada, its size, the distances to travel, the smaller tax base with a smaller population than that of United States or India. This is not intended to provide excuses but most people here do not even have a family doctor as many doctors find greener pastures in the United States where the dollar is 30 percent higher in value and salaries are not limited to government health care. It is hard to change when American influence dictates much of what transpires. Homelessness hasn't been a problem but the last five years has provided more hardship for many who find it hard to cope with how things have become.

On one hand, Canada will not have to worry about Immigrants doing reckless actions like in Europe and US\n\nOn the other hand, this will affect their economy

Hi ma’am is it true \nWe must have 10milion naira in account before visiting Canada \n\n\nWhat is the least amount I must have in my account

Milk quality is good in canada?! What a joke. Its horrible in north America..

Wow, amazing,I am from Pakistan have lived in Canada for more than 10 years Montreal, Vancouver and many other places,Mr Millionaire is absolutely right in his message ? percent,so much information.

Thank you diamond for all you do. Pls did you travel direct from dubai to canada or you came to nigeria first? \nAm in kenya right now planing to travel from kenya to canada. \nDo you think i will have any issues at d airports since am not leaving from my home country.\n\nI await your replys dear,thank you.

In the US, it seems it is way more difficult to elevate yourself if you are born to a poor family. In Canada, there seems to be more equality in that respect, in that if you are from a low income family, there is still a chance to get ahead.

Canada has a huge prpblem right now housing jobs etc etc

लानत है Canada में rehna

Canada will be brown by 2050

What is going on in the world? The U S and Canada seeing tents pitched up on the streets of what were some of the finest cities in the world. Something is very wrong. I grew up on blue-collar modest means. We were happy to celebrate life. My family members weren't educated, and we had real domestic family problems as so many do. We may have been poor, but we had what we needed and were never facing homelessness. Is this the result of globalization, overpopulation, global warming, and greed? God help us all. Vote blue and pray. ❤

Thank god i came to alberta as a young man made my $$$$$ now looking to be a passport bro in eastern Asia asta la vista comi Canada. ?

She is so adorable.\nMy sis ypu should have tried to move to USA.Things are.not so carzy and dingi and dark as Canada.\nAmerica is a hopeful country and you were so near yet so far.

Don’t move to the US , that place is going down the drains. Move to Canada, choose a city that isn’t predominantly black, invite your fellow black brothers and sister start businesses and take over that city. It’s doable in Canada.

I have a different perspective as a Canadian who has lived abroad since 2017. Digital Nomads are a growing force around the world and more and more people are retiring in countries other than where they were born. So this is a global phenomena, not just something happening in isolation in Canada. The world is on the move. In the future I predict this will greatly increase. Nothing will stop the globalization of the world, and I mean that in the truest sense - not restricted just to the economic realm.

Because everything in Canada is like gold.

Trudeau/Freeland/Singh et. al. have destroyed what Canada used to be......and what used to be it's future.

Lots of people are leaving Canada ?\nNo surprises there. Just look who's running Canada ? lol

What is the minimum investment in Canada? I have less than 100 thousand US dollars. Can I travel to Canada?

Thisvis utterly acceptable......i plan to immigrate to Canada nextvyearvwith my two wives and 7 children.....its appaling to know that the Canadian government will not give us free housing, healthcare and food stamps and spending money for leisure activities....??????

Canada- It's not highly educated immigrant... they are English speaking labourer who come without any technical expertise no good industry nor high paying jobs... Timmy's and warehouse labor.. just a English test?

Yes, because Canada’s system is so perfect, they have “doctors and engineers” forming lines to apply outside of McDonalds lol

Only the poor and desperate will stay in canada. You gotta be crazy to have money and pick canada to live.

If it is at all true that foreign students are going to the food banks to get food then what the heck are they doing coming here. The food bank shouldn't be abused like this . And then they say that they should not come to Canada to get education. If they can't afford to come here then get an education else where . The food banks are for Canadians first and it is getting harder to feed the rising need for those Canadians. Using a system that was not set up for foreign students is not right. What next. Tuition free housing free. Do it on line and stay away.

You need atleast a million dollars to buy a house...if you go with mortgage lets say you need 700k cash.... adding let say 50 k for emergencies that makes it 750k ...who the hell would come to canada with that money and start fresh? Housing, taxes, insurance, inflation, low paying jobs and freezing temperatures it all adds up.....

Totally agree on your analysis....we are here in Canada and still fighting :) for better opportunity

Canada false gospel of prosperity

In Canada ?? at the shopping mall I tried to look at the new cell phone , I asked for help, a men didn’t pay attention to me because he thought I can’t speak English mean no help
