Born and raised in Canada. My advice to anyone thinking of immigrating here, come with a LOT of financial support base established AND a gameplan on longterm income. If you come here with just a dream, you will find yourself in a nightmare. Things are changing here and it is going to get much, MUCH more challenging before it gets better.\n\nSource - a random canadian viewer @ 70k/yr who lives pretty humbly and still struggle financially.\n\nNot a very good time to move here.

My favourite part of Canadian-American history is how America fought a war to gain independence whereas Canada just asked politely ?. It’s just funny how it lives up to the stereotypes of the two nations

Please help me to travel to Canada

Pls chokor am a lnternation nurse from Ghana,am in Canada now pls I need ur help,can I pls have ur number to call u.I need a job I have been applying on job bank bt to no avail

The thing I will say about housing as someone who lives in Manitoba— housing in Canada is not all built equal. 1 million dollars is a standard house in Ontario, but pretty damn nice if you live in Manitoba, especially if outside of Winnipeg. I’d assume a similar policy applies to western Ontario, Saskatchewan, northern Quebec and the territories due to low population and extremely low population density

I still need Documents to go in Canada Legally just to Visit.

most outrageous is gun and lack of healthcare , TIPS, as replacement for wages not bonus rewards; electoral college? best part of usa is cheap internet cell mobile phone, flights to europe asia are way cheaper in usa than canada

Good evening aunty. Am from Nigeria and I really want to come to Canada. But I don't know how to do it. Pls help me with some necessary information on how to come to Canada.

I thought it was bad in the United States, Canada has worse problems..

Ur about 50-60 % viewers wants to come illegally to USA or Canada and become driver... From Haryana and Punjabi... ????

I’m a Canadian snowbird. Most of day to day life is not much different between Canada and USA. Sales tax is a little higher in Canada, and some of the insurance rules and options are a bit different. Overall costs seem a bit higher in USA. However, health costs are way(!) different. Last year I had some lung blood clots in Arizona. I went to local hospital and was admitted for 22 hours. I was investigated quickly and efficiently, and discharged on a blood thinner. \n\nThe hospital costs were $21,000 US$. A foreigner coming to Canada and being admitted would likely have paid ~$2,000-$3,000. The drug cost for one month supply in Arizona was $750 US$. In Canada, it costs $25/month.\n\nThe US politics are certainly more entertaining in the USA than in Canada. Also, the recognition of military and military service is much more a big deal in USA

Yes, these so-called immigration statuses look more like a trap. Just to cheat the money you earn and spend it in Canada, contributing to their government’s tax revenue.

To go to Canada DO NOT USE AGENTS. Use government website to apply for visas. You save money and you won't be lied to. Note that agents do not influence visa outcome. The government website lists clearly what is required and the steps to qualify for a visa. You can never work in Canada with visitors visa.

I love Canada ??...love from india ?? Great Brampton

Bhai Canada me Canadians nahi rahte vaha Franch Indian Spanish or Americans hai ?

Veere canada hun duja punjab aa

Insurance in canada is like credit score.

Canada’s health system is amazing, as long as you are not sick. Wait times and rules around who qualifies for particular tests or treatments have gotten ridiculous and sometimes frightening. I personally have to wait a month or so to get an appt with my doc. My sister in law in NC gets Cadillac care in the US but has great insurance.

The USA has common gun ownership, almost no social programs, and you would not have to rely on police to save you from scum. Canada has social programs, but too much gun control. The best type of country would have social programs along with every citizen having their own armory. ?

I am a dual citizen, spending 6 months/year in Canada, working remotely for a Canadian bank. It was pretty comfortable living in Canada years ago, however I'd prefer living in the US now. Canadian advantage over USA, healthcare system, is deteriorating very fast, with hordes of new immigrants coming every year ... Canada soon will be a hostile to the US country with current levels of immigration from Asian countries unfriendly to USA. I am considering leaving Canada for good, heading back to the US or moving to Portugal/Spain, selling a house in Canada will allow buying a nice property elsewhere.

Lots of bad things up here in Canada too. At least you guys have doctors. And our taxes are out of control.

He's an immigrant because he's a Nigerian living in Canada but if he was a Canadian living in Nigeria he would be called an expat.

CANADA is always in the Top Ten Best Place to Live in The World.\nThe USA is NEVER in the TOP TEN, in education, medical, standard of living etc. etc.\nGreat people BAD BAD politics Gun killing country.\nCheers ??

I can't blame that pregnant person for wanting out. Average hospital bill in the USA for chiildbirth is between 5,000 and 11,000 dollars according to google, and that doesn't include aftercare and pre-natal care. In Canada it's covered by the province.

I've had about 8 friends and 2 relatives who have tried life in the USA.\nOne cousin is still in Colorado after moving there with her 2nd husband, an American, over 10 years ago. The rest have come back to Canada and the biggest general impression I get is that it is simply a huge relief to get out of there. That is a huge contrast to the people I know who had tried life in Mexico, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Europe, Thailand, Japan, VietNam, Australia, and New Zealand: far fewer of them have come back to Canada because they are happy with life there. And the ones who have come back all have things they miss about the countries and most want to go back someday.\n\nMost of the people I know who have come back from the USA are highly critical of the utter lack of a decent health care system in the USA, but for them it was a solvable problem because they had decent jobs and insurance while they were in the USA. What gave them so much relief when they came back to Canada was that during their time in the USA they never felt safe. There is something fundamentally and brutally fucked up about a country where every bank has armed guards, the mall cops are armed, half of the people in your neighbourhood are armed, you're scared to send your children to school, and every time you turn around you see a cop with his hand on his gun.

I’d just like to point out that Canada is part of America.You say you were wanting to find out how Canadians compared living in Canada to living in America. But Canada IS America. It is part of North America as is Mexico. Just because they adopted the name “The United States of America “ does not mean that they now hold the claim to being all of America. Just thought I should point that out since lots of US citizens don;t seem to under stand the difference.

The problem in US is the extremes of wealth and poverty compared to Canada. The result is the life expectancy in US is 6 years below that in Canada.

I would never leave Canada, especially for the United States. Lol\nI don’t understand why Americans think Canada is a lesser country l.

Canada was initially a french colony ,because fur trade and the occupation of trapping beavers for procuring fur trade was. Avery lucrative industry.That is why French is one of the official languages of canda

Nothing new in this video, just last 3 minutes is worth listening to. I had applied for PR, then gave up just like that, found Canada is excellent tourist spot ONLY. Rest I ❤ INDIA with all its some - and more + ives. There is a trade off in each aspect of life, also one should not have too many options in life to move back and forth. Then only one can take a disruptive but bold step in ones life and bear with its offerings. I am happy so is my family to have come back , Covid phase helped making us like INDIA more.

Should one be present in Canada for the fair?

Raman ji is the source of motivation for me and tons of other people esp. in Canada.

@9:00. There are Canadians that have the money, have private health care plans from the U,S.\nIf they have an issue and there is a backlog in their local availability, they go use their U.S. health coverage.\nThere was a lady in British Columbia who was confined to her home due to waiting for a hip operation.\nDue to the number of hours required for the operation, she was on a 2 year waiting list.\nIn Canada you can not pay for your own operation if it is covered by the state, no matter how much money you have, I guess you can go to the sates if you can afford it.\nIn Toronto I have not had a family doctor in 7 years, there are no openings. Is it like that in the USA?

The booze is cheap in US because there is little tax on it. In Canada, most of the taxes on booze goes to the provincial gov't and pays for such things as health care. Health care is not free; it is paid for by taxes.\n\nThis is a general tendency of Americans: they hate taxes. Which is why their safety net is so small.

I would say both Countries have advantages , and disadvantages alike . Dental care in Canada is not covered by the Government Universal Health care plan , and is Grossly overpriced , can not get even simple antibiotics without first Visiting a Doctor . Wait times in Hospital Emergency is sometimes 24 Hours or more , unless you are Dying on the Floor . To sum it up , Canada is a much better place to live for low income people , and people on Public assistance . US is a Much better place to live if you have a successful business , or High Income Job.

Hooray for free health care in Canada even when your health card expires they will still take you in ?

I was surprised to find that an American who gave birth in Canada paid $10,000 to have a baby in Canada even though the Father was Canadian! Apparently if she had been Canadian and he was American there would be no charge….go figure!

Living close to the border… we will go down to go shopping or pick up packages. As we approach the US border, I feel an unspoken stress overtake me and when I’m finally back in Canada, there’s a physical/mental relief that is felt. I’ve asked my husband & friends about this and they too feel it.

You can’t live outside Canada for more than six months or your health care will expire.

I’ve had 4 children, living in Canada it hasn’t cost us a cent. That’s the way it should be.

Many people in Canada don't have to pay ANYTHING to give birth in a hospital. I don't like the guns in the states at all.

This is just a guess, but it seems that the reason your ER/ doctor office wait times are shorter is that because cost only those who have serious or long-time symptoms go to get checked out. \nIn Canada, we will get checked out sooner.

I lived for 14 years in America but moved back to Canada when I became a mom. No way was I raising my daughters in the USA. Too much gun violence. I brought my American husband with me and he loves Canada. He says he’ll never go back. So much better here.

I've never waited more than 20 minutes to see a Dr here in Canada

I'm not the flag waving sort, and Canada has room for improvement, but I'm damned glad I was born here, rather than anywhere else.

Did you know?\nWhile most countries have a housing shortage (except for China which has the opposite problem), Canada has the biggest shortage of any advanced economy. That's what happens when you let a bunch of people it, but construct very little new housing.
