Our tap water…I’m on the floor/ our politics sounding like a wrestling federation ? being currently overseas food is way cleaner. These are some interesting opinions

As a Canadian, I hate both Canada and America. Also the tap water sucks in both places. Remove the fluoride for God sakes... \nAlso the amount of cocaine, antidepressants and microplastics in the water should worry you. You can test it all at home with a basic chemistry set, a microscope and a glass of your tap...\nOne more thing, Canada is almost as mismanaged as America, but the whole continent is doomed. It's one big expensive scam. I hate it here so much I'm in the process of moving overseas back to Europe. Pray you never catch cancer in Canada, it'd be just as bad as anywhere else. Except Japan, or Switzerland. Healthcare in North America is a joke.

I’m an American living in Vancouver for the first time. Been here for a few months now. Everything is true. Lol

When my parents ask me why I’m moving to Canada\n\nMe: Tap Water

At least where I’m at sf it’s more compact but everytime I get out of sf and move to a less compact city it sucks so much. U NEEEEED A CAR coming from a place were no one cars that much about cars to if u wanna get a bag a chips prepare for a 20min drive

Tap water at a reserve or small town in Canada not good either. I’m a city girl but u city boys not knowing how the rest of Canada lives.

I don't like our segregated ways either...\nI'm Italian, so I get lumped up with 'the Whites'...\nAnd not only are the the worst racists...\nWhite women are the worst, too. LOL

im thinkig about moving to canada because I don't drive I'm car free, can you make a video on the visa process

I’m an American. I live rather close to Canada and spent over 2 years in time living there over summers mostly . I love both. If you aren’t going to a grocery store you are probably getting fat in America. I find it hard to eat when I’m outside of my larger metro area. honestly I don’t worry about my security because thankfully I work hard to pay the bills to live in an area I don’t need to worry about. Love y’all

I’m generally happy that I live in Canada instead of the US, but the one thing that pisses me off is the difference between our telecom companies. Whenever I watch American TV ads, Sprint and T Mobile are always offering cheap unlimited data plans, meanwhile in Canada, Rogers and Bell will take your kids from you if you go over your bandwidth

I went to Canada love the vibe. However I’m from Chicago. So believe me when I say “ITS FUCKING COLD IN CANADA” Y’all cold is next level. That bitch actually hit my bones. Like wtf

*The irony of this video.*\n \n*I'm currently working in Whitby for 2 weeks & will say I am enjoying Canada.*\n\n*Other than the driving motherfuckas is bold out here*

I live in British Columbia. In a city people consider “dangerous.” I remember I had a package delivered to my door. I was at work so I couldn’t go get it. I was imagining those videos I saw on YouTube of people getting their packages stolen within 10 minutes of it sitting there. But nah, It stayed there for 6 hours and never got stolen. Heck my workplace, had a package delivered on Friday evening and it stayed there outside until Monday. I was very surprised both times. I’m not saying that I’m living in a utopia, I’ve gotten robbed before, like everyone else I have my complaints. I think what really helps Canada is the smaller population. Less people means less people to rob shit. That tap water do be nice though.

I'm from the west coast Arizona so really no coastline but I'm from the west lol. East Coast women got nothing on the west coast women. See I've been to like 12 states. I have been to Canada twice. I've been to Alaska Puerto Rico, Hawaii. Nowhere out of country except Canada. I can't lie. Canada has some beautiful women too

I feel you on the tap water. It is not the same in every state. Canada water is great, Vermont water, where I’m from is great. Georgia tap water is absolutely garbage. You can taste the cesspool it came from.

Canada is fucked up.. i'm good lol. I'd pick gang violence and the left over canada any day.. Justin is as simp as it gets..

I am an American born in NY, raised in VA. I also lived in Van Nuys for a year, also lived in Texas before my job industry moved me to Canada. \ni have been in Canada for 7yrs, been to Vancouver, Toronto and MTL and to be honest i like a lot of things in Canada like the health care differences and of course the lower insulin cost for my husband but i still want to go back home. If anything i would stay in Toronto because it's the closest similarity to home but where Aba and Preach live, in Montreal, it's literally been my nightmare. I feel like the tap water at least in my area has gotten worse over time. \nOne thing i feel like they didn't mention that I have to tell people from America to watch out for is the credit card vs debit card thing. \nI grew up only having debit cards because i didn't want to get into debt. when i came to Canada i continued getting a debit card and realized the hard way that not everything accepts debit cards and you NEED to also have a credit card to access certain things.\nbut overall i do feel much safer in Canada even though the crazy trump lovers are showing up here and there it's significantly less than i see when I'm back home.

I'm sorry, I'm one of the ugly women on the East coast. ? \n\nIt's always interesting to hear your opinions ? love you guys you're awesome! ❤️

As someone who has been around the country and to both coasts, I'd say I'm happy to exist in the Midwest. Very 'normal' here compared to the West Coast and not as angry all the time like the East Coast. Midwest has its problems though like anywhere else haha

I'm right with you on tap water I'm from South Yorkshire UK we have really good tap water too like it's actually better than alot of the spring waters you really appreciate it when you travel.

I'm in a small town in Mississippi we have to go atleast 30 minutes away to shop and we just got our first Starbucks (not in our county the county we shop in)and we haven't dranked tap water in decades and it's getting expensive

I’m from seattle and our tap water go hard

Living my whole life in Cali I’m so jaded to the sprawl. It’s just a fact of life. Driving and hour to see a friend is just how it is.

NYC has clean tap water. Problem is the pipes in your building might be from the 1800s. But the segregation is dead right. I remember being a kid (20+ years ago) walking through Queens and I'm in a neighborhood that's lauded for being the biggest melting pot. But these MFs were racist towards black people. Hell every neighborhood that wasn't predominantly black, didn't want blacks in it. I traveled all over the city and had to deal with that. Even in the Heights where most Dominicans are my complexion. Let them find out I'm not Dominican too...\n\nI found this to be true in most places I've been to in America. Hell in Florida, Jacksonville area I've seen people driving around with nooses hanging from their rear view mirrors.

i'm with you Preach! American women in my experience are def rough compares to our Canadian ladies....... whooooooooooo.....

I think those of us that live here in the states that are in states that are close to Canada are fortunate because we get the best of both worlds. I'm from Detroit and we visit regularly because it's right across the river. I've been to Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa and use to visit Windsor often. We started going to Canada at a young age because it was legal to drink at 19 when we found that out we were there at least once a month back then. I've always enjoyed my time in Canada I'll be back there soon.

How’s New Orleans? I’m moving there in 2025 ?

? Enjoyed your input fellas. I’m one of those rough around the edges American north east girls

I feel attacked, kinda. Public transport and tap water, you’re 150% correct. If you’ve really only experienced the cities in the US though that’s definitely gonna be a super different experience. Also, California is… too much of a microcosm to represent the US in any way and LA is even more of an outlier. I need to hear preach expound on our east coast women more because what he laid out is too vague and subjective. Definitely not sure that our politics being “entertaining” is a good thing, in fact I’m almost positive that it’s to our detriment as a society but that’s just my take. I live in central Pennsylvania for what it’s worth

The way things are going here in Canada, I'm moving back to America.

I'm Dr of medicine my wife is MPhil double maths, she is a government teacher. we have 4 child ...we want to settle in abroad...we fall in 33-34 years of age ... \nIs there any way .....

Aba I'm in Houston Texas 2 largest state 4th largest city our rent for two bedroom apartment is around 790$ house in the fancy parts yes an actual house with 5 bedroom and 2.5 rest rooms is around 2200$ not all major cities are insanely high with rent

I'm from NY. Preach is 100% correct. All the keeper ladies in NY are from other countries.

I’m going to file so many hate crime complaints against your channel with the moose police ??

i'm a canadian who lives in america and your takes are only right from a montreal context. a lot of this isn't true if you apply it to toronto for example.

Nahh I'm good

I’ve always wanted to venture out of America I’m over it been in Atlanta all my life.

I'm from mtl and brooo the diversity, health care, general safety, honestly everything except for taxes feels better from what I hear.. I haven't been to the states yet but godamn I have a hard time seeing US being better then mtl

I’m an American and I love it here but I can’t wait to travel and see how it’s like in other parts of the world but I don’t think I’ll live somewhere else

Okay I’m moving to Canada lol ?\n\nAnd Hey hey hey , NEW YORk is the land of beautiful people ? so many nations here and mixing here ?\nBrooklyn and queens women are the prettiest ❤

I’m from Miami and moved up to Toronto in 2012. I’ve slowly watched this city decline in every way possible. Gun crime, drugs, prostitution etc. The whole gay and trans movement is outta control too. That being said the violence isn’t even close to what I grew up around back home. There’s a lot of wannabe gangs out here. I used be gang affiliated and I’ve met ALOT of fake thugs out here. Claiming crip and rocking 6 point starts and bloods rocking 5 point starts and so forth. It’s ridiculous. That being said the city and country is going to straight shit

Lol as a Floridian of over 25 years, you are correct, we have a lot of imports in the state coming elsewhere lime the Caribbean and such, but also cosmetic surgery is huge in a place like the Miami area where I'm from

Crime is lower in Canada? Blacks also only account for 3.5% of the population. But I’m sure that has nothing to do with it..

i'm at 9:25 so idk if you've mentioned this, but the phone bills in canada are INSANE.

I chose to raise my kids in Canada in the 90’s and I’m grateful. My Son never had an NBomb thrown at him until he visited the University of Washington campus for a summer course. \n\nI’m from the South (Jim Crow South) and I never felt the absence of racism and hate for Black people until I moved to Canada. Taxes, housing and cost of food is a hurdle however the way of life makes of for it all. Every last bit as a Black man. \n\nAmeriKKKans used Black babies as gator bait. The damage to the society is done and irreparable. Wickkked to the core. \n\nInstead of strengthening the country within; they allow the southern border to be open so more people compete with Black people from establishing stability and progress by in large. Racism is a system. CDNSROCK

I lived in Lon. Ontario for seven years and I have to tell you the air is so clean choked for a week clearing out Americans crappy air,the ghettos look like suburbs because at least in my area the properties are being taken care of,no I'm not going to say that wasn't any racism or no Gunplay it is minimum and the politics is almost as bad as United States but it's a hell of a lot better than what the state is offering you, yes there's more money in the States but you don't get a piece of mind like you do in Canada, and let me tell you about their beer store and how one of their beers is an equivalent to 6 US beers lol, I need to go back lol

Man the cost of living in NYC is ridiculous. I love almost everything else about my city, but man it's a struggle unless you're wealthy. Also, to add onto Aba's point about the diversity, even in NYC you'll see some form of separation among ethnic groups. So much so we even name some of the neighborhoods after the common demographic there. Chinatown, Little Italy, Little Dominican Republic, etc. Even so, having all of these areas easily accessible within the city is something I'm very grateful for.

Guess I’m moving to Canada

Personally i'm ok with boring politicians. They are not voted to entertain us, they are here to help progress and make the country better. This popularity contest in the states with words over actions is just plain dumb. There are numerous ways to be entertained in life, don't need it in politics.

I live in Texas and honestly I'm blessed.
