You forgot to mention the extremely toxic work environment at least in healthcare where I was employed although I did work in retail for awhile which was just as bad. The backstabbing is unbelievable especially if you're new to the area. Smaller towns are not friendly and even if you're only from the next town over, you are looked as an intruder. I'm happily retired now and avoid people as much as possible, this from a person who was born right here in Ontario. But you are spot on, Canada is not a place I would choose to live and my parents regretted ever coming here from Europe sucked in by the preception that Canada was the Land of Milk and Honey.

Canada is depressing

Chokor millionaire please l want my son to discuss with you how to migrate to Canada he has his paper already

It’s funny because canada has really gone downhill under Trudeau and yet new immigrants vote liberal more than conservative and now they want to leave ??

can you meet friends in Canada? I heard it's hard to do that?

I apologize for my country. Most of us never wanted Canada to become what it is now.

From asia, My sister have a PHD credential, even i used to encourage her to seek for a better quality of life in this country, bcoz the good opportunity in Singapore is packed, no more good job left, so i always encourage her to go canada, except for canada, I can't think of a good place for her to go... United States is too dangerous for the people like my tiny sister, many Australians are racist to Asian, so my final result will always been canada, there's no more option for Asian...i speaking the truth.

the freezing of bank accounts is a bigger issue than just the Trucker rally freezing. To anyone who owns a business in Canada that has ever been through an Audit with the CRA, you know these kids have no idea what they are doing and and way too much power. In my case they actually said they wont accept half my receipts because of the format they were saved in. I had two formats, and they said I could only pick 1 format for them to work with- so immediately from the start the AUDIT would be incorrect, I called it out and refused to pay the fake amount and they froze my bank account--with employees not getting paid. It is clearly irresponsible to operate a business in Canada under that kind of behaviour. Keeping a business in Canada is dangerous. I left. Dont even get me started on what my Doctor said about not treating my low functioning kidneys until they fail!

Canada is tundra region. Historically humans never lived in masses above tropics mean humans are not biologically conditioned to live in that region. All pure or majority Anglo Saxon nation like UK, Canada, Australia and NZ have high property prices by design as it gives false sense of prosperity among service class if export is not huge. Canada and Australia has resources but what Australia has is good weather compared to Canada which is not really suitable for humans. To live in such conditions humans need to earn much in excess of what rest of the world earns else new immigrants will ditch Canada for other comfortable places to immigrate to.

Vancouver and Toronto are not Canada. There are other major cities that are ok to live in like ottawa.

Well, you have to ask yourself. What are the incentives of staying in Canada? It is unlivable pretty much 8 out of 12 months, so that is more than half of your year spent suffering. Plus, you pay high taxes and high cost of living while your Government steals and give your tax money away to foreign countries. Plus health care is pathetic. Only idiots will stay and be slave to the Government. Life is too short to be staying miserable in this country.

Hello ma’am,\nCan I apply for a master's degree that lasts for two years and get a work permit for three years, enabling me to apply for PR?\nI really don’t know how it works, but I’m so confused at this moment. I have been in the UK for over 6 years, and I haven’t gotten anything yet. I wish to move to Canada, but I don’t want to make a wrong move that I would regret later on in life.\n\nWhat province would you recommend ma’am?

Where are they going to go from Canada??? You forgot to ask that question.

“ I think I wasted my life coming to Canada “ lololol

Life is hard for immigrants but why do they think they deserve to live in Canada's most expensive city when many Canadians can't live there ?

I worked as a bookkeeper in Ontario for 6 years. Now in NS for 25 years and 0 work as a bookkeeper. NS does not recognize ontario education or experienced. I am born in Canada an only live in Canada

If all newcomers insist on settling in Toronto or Vancouver, then yes, it's unaffordable. And I don't disagree with an Iranian trained architect requiring further training to work in Canada. IMO that is not a fully transferable skill.

because canada becomes totalitarian state. as simple as that. like australia, uk and new zealand.

Actually, the fact that there are so many agencies that supposedly help homeless people doesn't mean that help can be accessed so easily. In fact, there is an extreme shortage of housing in Canada and all shelters are full, mentally ill and homeless folks can not be placed in regular shelters, the right approach would be rehabilitation centers. Unfortunately, rehabilitation centers are for profit. \nSo it's hard to say what exactly they are spending those billions on.

It's funny Canada recorded an increase in population, someone paid for this story, I wonder who?

Kamchor kahi bhi kaam nahi kar salta india ho ya canada kammchor kahi bhi jaye usko dikkat hogi

Trudeau and the NDP enabler made Canada worst than a third world country.

The smart and productive ones will leave, and Canada will be stuck with the useless freeloaders and riff raff that Trudeau let come across from Quebec.

Well done. My family can be traced in Canada to 1807, or earlier. I have lived my life in the same Province that I was born. And the main objection a Canadian citizen might use to consider moving away is because of the high rate of migration, both legal and illegal. When population was 32M we allowed 25K legal migrants. At 40M we are expected to absorb 1M new migrants into a system that has sent most manufacturing jobs overseas, abused taxes and Parliament and many existing social systems are used to support the added burden. So the reason resident Cdns may seem standoffish is because the addition of a new migrant makes their job that much harder and further reduces the chances of home ownership or having a family. In one Province the average legal immigrant is able to import 23 members of their immediate family. In a Province of 4M, there exists Medical identity Cards for 8M. The country is divided and there is nothing which brings unity. The decline in morality has spanned a new generation of corruption at all levels

600.000 immigrants every year < how Canada can handle that many people < job < housing < possibility normal life ??? Asians milioners buying realstates / 30 -40 houses and renting < that is good investment for them / In Toronto $1 mln 2 bdr apartment < who can buy it ???? < My Daughter is PhD University Professor in Toronto and only 1 bdr renting apartment she can afford . Canada used to be the best Country on the world

Canada must immediately build a Wall along the border for National security! ?

CANADA is New UP BIHAR

Canada used to be a major player in certain industries, like Bombardier, Blackberry, etc. What do you have now? Things happen for a reason.

Canada is just as expensive as USA but with less money, so immigrants think that its better to just leave.

Thank you very much Ma'am. I am one of your new Subscribers. I have been thinking of studying in Canada, but it's very expensive. Let me give this a try ?

There are of Course ups and down between living in Europe and USA or Canada \nUSA no doubt has alot more money than Europe and in Canada you don't need to work about paper work citizenship and European countries have language barriers but thats not a problem now a days \nIn Europe you have medical insurance there is no Job insecurity you will see a few Homeless people and you can have a happy Family life Education is free and cheap as compared in the US or Canada\nOn the other hand USA has job insecurity medical's so expensive Canada has high rents plus the Cold there is too much \nIn the end This guy is only limited to the knowledge he has living in Italy and he got his info from articles that are not based on actual facts

I heard that u country harboured a lot of terrorist in the country as Indian American I don't really safe to come to even Canada. In USA here also their khalistani protest but it's nothing like Canada. We as Indian is literally advised not visit Canada unless it's important by USA department only

Canada has become a hub of high end Pakistani, Khalistani & Canadian scammers. Middle class & lower middle class people are falling prey to these scammers.

Bro you making alot of sense, I am watching you from Germany, I am only waiting for my passport then I will move to Canada, you have experience on what you saying .

Same situation in the UK. You don’t feel like home, system will take your money! The only rewarding being in the UK or Canada is the Citizenship!

you destroyed my desire for immegration to canada

Wish I had visited Canada before it had succumbed to this woke nonsense like many other western countries have done.

They should come to the US, way better than Canada

Canada now sucks because of corrupt goons like Ford and seemingly all other horrifying politicians and dont forget the crappy law enforcement creeps that wonder this country!?

Language is the main challenge for quick integration for English speakers , if you are comparing it with Canada & USA . Other reasons that you have put up is subjective!

How can this people be given visa and saying that more job in canada whiles canadian are living homeless and jobless in there own country

So after moving from USA to Canada and now living in Switzerland, my only regret is that, I should have moved to Switzerland first. If I start talking about the growth I have achieved here, I wouldn't finish. So a person like me will never agree with you over all the points raised except for the language barrier.

Canada doesnt give out free stuff like we do in the US. These people are just moving to where its easier to get all the government handouts so they dont have to work.

As a Nigerian that lives in Canada I am tired of Nigerians who come here and shit on the country, Peter can be talking all the garbage he wants , if he doesn’t like it he can go back to Nigeria. “ Canada makes you work for your money but Nigeria you work and enjoy” bro, that is the problem with a country as unproductive as Nigeria. And bro you say salaries in Nigeria are better than in Canada. Stop lying ! As of today the Naira is1500 to 1 Us$. Mr Journalist can you please interview successful Nigerians who are excelling in this land filled with milk and honey, Doctors, surgeons, lawyers, engineers, Nurses, Politicians, Sport’s personalities and please tell Peter to go back to Nigeria

We have no plan. We have a shortage of houses, we have a permissiveness that spits in the face a tradition etc. The hallmarks of the Trudeau Era. Trudeau is an existential threat to Canada. The damage is already extensive.

Chiness screwed everything in Canada

40% of the Canadian population is foreign born. There is no work in Canada. There is no housing. There is no health care. There is no hope. There is no opportunity.\nYet Trudeau-Singh keep bringing in millions of foreigners for their votes. Canada has turned into the laughing stock of the world.

the regular Canadians are running too. Canada is turning into a communist country

People come to Canada for better education, better health care, and freedom, now it’s all gone.

I left Canada after 13 years. I couldn't stand the freezing cold winters anymore ?
