What the Canadian government should be concerned with, is that its Canadians who are leaving. And let this be a clue to all new comers, if a country does not respect and take care of its own first, how can you trust it? Its just a matter of time before they screw you! that's a truth you have neglected to see.

I LOVE IT. Let them leave and leave us alone!

“And we’re not gonna let them leave their land either”

Dumb question. Why are immigrants leaving Canada. Number one, we're full. There's no housing for our own, let alone them. Number two, its too expensive to live here. Number three, the growing resentment among actual Canadians that were born here is being felt by them. Simple as that.

By leaving the land you only helping Israel. That´s what they are trying anyway. But to let children starve to make a point is too much.

Good. Let them go to China. When Canada was good and clean, everyone wants to go there. Once it's dirty everyone leaves.

Let’s see how many is going to leave Canada and make it more beautiful once again ??

Nothing surprising! The smart ones do not want citizenship in a hell hole. They prefer to leave Canada! Let the desperate illegal migrants from the southern border (U.S./Mexico) fill up Canada!

Im Punjabi sikh ( actually dont believe in any god now .) and never support khalistan but but if u want Hindustan for Only Hindus than i support khalistan. \n\nSo please no khalistan or Hindu stan. Leave India alone. Lets grow as Human

I've come across numerous comments urging people to leave and not return. As a Muslim, I find the notion of immigrating to Western countries surprising. Our beliefs often clash with theirs, making integration a challenge that often requires compromising our principles. While I understand that migration is often driven by conflict and instability, it's important to remember that these countries are meant to be temporary refugees, not permanent homes. Let's strive to be exemplary citizens during our time here, and when conditions allow, graciously bid farewell and express gratitude for the hospitality we've received.

let them leave so we can come in. Don't stress me please.

He is right. It is Palestinians land.. they can stay there forever... the oppressors who hv to leave... let the palestinians live peacefully in their own land..

I'm a Canadian and I don't recognize my own country it's become a shit! hole! It's ugly it smells like shit! You can't go to a park to walk your dog in your neighborhood because it's full of homeless crackhead so let these people go invade someone else's country for now! Unfortunately I can't leave I don't have any money ?

You have to see what happened around the world,without going too far , the USA have a big problem with homelessness, 100 times more than Canada , obviously Canada is only 10% of the American population, our system in the hospital are treated in accordance to the grade of injuries the more severe are look after before your broken arm, over someone hurt in a car accident , so the attention goes to the more serious issues, but still you get care regardless how long you been waiting , unlike the USA sent you home if you don’t have health insurance,credit card , or cash to look after your problem , they will direct you to the emergency were you can wait for hours behind dozens of people waiting to see a doctor, some people had died waiting to see a doctor, our system is not perfect but nobody will let you died because you have no insurance ,money , or credit card , \nWhy people are leaving the country , is because the cost of living has skyrocketing to the point of no return , if you can only work to pay your rent and eat poorly, but with no possibility to save for the future it’s a wasting time to stick around ,and the people coming to Canada will find our system is not perfect and the image of Canada is tannish , but only people with highly educated will find they pathway to a high standards of living if you can make over 90.000 dollars and 180.000 for working couples in high demand

cheaper to live in the philippines then all canada with nasty prices !, rent will never go down , even if all the students lets say leave , nothing is going change that , no matter what government does any more , your going to see higher taxes , high inflation in food , and people living on the street ,, this what the government did , rich stay rich , middle class stays very poor , this your so called canada of the year !

Lets go Israel ??, we will not leave our allies they will have to make room with the other muslim countries on how go brokerage a new piece of land if anything but they will not have the Gaza again until Israel develops the area

Lived in same Canadian province my whole life, here’s a solution to immigrants complaining go home to your country. Canada has been ruined by immigration but to be more specific Indians, they are everywhere, in PEI every single service industry job has been taken over by them and so a stigma is created working in fast food, gas stations, ect. No other race works there but Indians, it’s easy to spot an Indian on the road too, if not a massive dumb Punjabi sticker on their door just look at the license plate, you will see their surname every time. It’s a joke. It’s worse when you go to the gym and are surrounded by 80% Indians as some smell Soooo bad. So please, just go home. Trust me nobody wanted you to come, it was a political thing and you are the one race that filed in like rats. You over stayed your welcome, you had your entire youth of a generation flood our community and leave their community behind, they don’t come to be Canadian,they come to be Indian and hang with other Indians and do Indian shit, eat Indian food, wave Indian flags, it’s honestly such an embarrassment for Canada but also an embarrassment for India, must be a pretty shit country when a generation flees to live abroad and then they have the nerve to complain about that country that let them in. ?

Couldn’t agree more. We can’t just go through life letting people be pushed from pillar to post. So many people have had to flee their countries because another group decided they wanted the land. The Palestinians couldn’t leave even if they wanted to ?

I was born in bangladesh and lived 18 years of my life there, then I moved to The us which is where I went to university and spent the next 7 years of my life. Then in 2004 I moved to canada and spent the next 13 years there before finally moving to oceania. Let me tell you why I left canada, in the later years there I was noticing how much I was being treated like an immigrant yes I am an immigrant but living 13 years of your life in the country and not being treated like a citizen but new people come into the country brand new and are treated more like citizens then you are hurts a lot. When I was new in canada I felt much more welcome by my coworkers and the citizens then I did after living there for so many years. But there's two more major reasons I left canada and these reasons are just as big as to why. In vancouver where I lived, the homeless crisis as you may know about was getting out of hand, it was a major problem even when I first settled in vancouver but now people were scared to even go the store as mentally ill homeless people were terrorizing everyone. And the last reason to top it all off was that the prices for everything in vancouver were simply ludicrous, It was insane how high the prices went up and taking care of my family was a struggle. I moved in 2017 and never once looked back, where I am now everyone and everything is sane and it hurt to leave canada at first because of how long I lived there and the memories I had there but let me be very clear I do not regret leaving canada.

The Palestinians are the pawns being used by the Arabs and the Jews. If the Arabs let them leave, the Jews win. If the Jews can force them out, the Jews win the territory.

Why the western world wants Palestinians to leave their own land. They must not leave and let others to steal their land as they are doing this day as well.❤??

ok, your destion to leave Canada is temporary. you will beg the government to let you in after a few years of honeymoon outside Canada.

You don’t have to give any reasons for leaving, just do it! I’m sure no Canadian will try to stop you. You should encourage many other Muslims to go with you. Maybe you can go fight and help free Palestine, put your money where your cap is. I think it is a marvelous, wonderful ides, hopefully you can start a Caravan of other Muslims to go with you, and they can join you in this utopia you have created in your mind of this place where you are going. I’m sure Canada was perfectly fine before your great great grandparent, grandparents, or Parents decided that a Muslim country was not where they wanted to be, and what was best for them and their families, and fled from it. Take care and Don’t let the door hit you, where the good Lord split you!!!

It's less people leaving than more people emigrating, don't let it worry you.

REALY WELL THIS WONT HAPPEN WE WONT LET IT BE TAKEN OVER BY SHARIA ITS A CHRISTIAN CONUTRY\nIF YOU WANT SHARIA LEAVE GO BACK TO YOUR OWN COUNTRIES \nBRITAIN IS NOT YOURS NEVER WILL BE\nSORRY ABOUT THAT

He's full of crap and makes me sick, no one likes you Resign, smoke screen, nothing to do with international students, has everything to do with his record immigrants he's let in that take priority housing over Canadian homeless, 2.5 million and still going, tens of thousands Ukrainians in the next month, why aren't they living on the street? Hmmm! Maybe because they're housed long before getting here, Trudeau is a disease and needs to LEAVE NOW! No one wants u in office and u alone are destroying any chance liberals have to get in

I'm an immigrant and my immigrant friends and I were talking about exactly this just the other day. I'd like to add some context on why so few international students stay: they can't. Schools prey on this very fact. In international recruiting, these schools use the promise of thriving local industries and trot out graduates working locally as major draws to these expensive programs. Then once students are in Canada, many of these schools couldn't care less: they offer little or sometimes no housing support, no immigration advice (or in my case and many of my friends' cases: they give straight-up false immigration advice that can screw you over or even get you in trouble). There absolutely needs to be regulation and accountability for these predatory schools; I think a good starting point would be capping the number of visas they can apply for based on the number of housing units available (either on-campus or via local development subsidy and homestays). Tons of students come to Canada completely unprepared due to false promises made by these schools, and then get spit out into an egregiously inefficient and broken work visa system.\nMy immigrant friends and I are all highly skilled in our specific field. There are only a handful of people in the world (let alone in Canada) who can do what I do at the level I do it, so I would be incredibly difficult to replace if I left Canada. Despite that, and despite being Canadian-educated (Canadian resources invested in me that you'd want to keep in Canada), remaining in Canada has been a massive struggle for me and my friends. We individually spend hundreds and even thousands of dollars every year to apply for permits that have to be renewed annually, but take the government 6+ months to process. Because the government is so backed up, we have to apply for *extra* permits to bridge that gap (more money, and more work added to IRCC's already-long line of applications). I'm in limbo for the majority of the year where I can't switch employers, can't leave the country, etc. It's horrible. \nBut I have it better than most. Of the international students in my year, only I and one other student are still in Canada because the transition to work permits is so needlessly long and difficult. Even a graduate who does manage to get a work permit might have to sit unemployed for 6 months or more before that permit is active. How is a student supposed to survive without work for that long? In order for employers to even apply to sponsor a graduate, they often have to do a lengthy labor market impact assessment, and so these graduates are stuck in a holding pattern, and they're the lucky ones. Immigration is absolutely vital to Canada and I hate how quickly these stories turn to xenophobic rhetoric, but we have to make space in the conversation to take a look at how schools are exploiting students and policy loopholes, and why they're doing it, and address those problems. The current system isn't fair to anyone.

I’d like to think I could watch the whole video but frankly within the first 3 reasons people are “leaving Canada” - not something I’ve notice although in and election season I am not surprised this may be getting blown up In conservative press, you have left out any real context. Yep we pay taxes - but you don’t speak to what services those taxes do our don’t deliver. The complaint that employers want to hire people with experience is as old as time. I’m 70 and when I tried to get jobs as a kid and later as a university grad - it was the same story. Whether the job really requires experience or the employer is just using it to keep entry level wages down - that just goes with the territory and also feels universal. Lastly - you speak of “the Canadian way” without giving any examples. What is “the Canadian way” or is that just your euphemism for racial or cultural prejudice? If it is you should just say what you mean and stop bandying ill defined terms around that let viewers arrive at conclusions you don’t intend. So already being pretty annoyed with your Masters degree opinion piece - I had to stop you and move on. You thoughts here are not very meaningful and feel like they are full of grievances and intended to be asking for audience validation of your grievances which pretty much invalidates your disclaimer at the top of the video.

It’s so sad to see you leaving. I know you have legit reasons, may Allah guide you and protect you from all harm. The luxury of moving to another country isn’t available to every one of us in all direction, for your case, let us know the reasons you chose the another side with the same details, if possible. I believe you guys were a great value to the Muslim community in Canada and will be truly missed!

...translation: no, we don't want them. They don't want to leave their land, sure, open up your country, let's see. They just know they don't want terrorism, I mean, not in their territory.

However, they forget one thing the Palestinians need to leave everybody else alone and let them live on their own land

Listened to your vlog and I want to suggest few things as an immigrant myself... I am not sure of your detials but seems like your husband came back after 2 months leaving you there with family.. I have rarely seen any family settling abroad unless they have seriously burnt all there bridges back home.. if you start with a mindset that let's go and see and if doesn't work out we will come back 90% odds are you will go back.. firstly come with absolutely clear mind that no matter what happens you are not going back.. and you will make it here no matter what. The journey will become much easier and one directional.. Secondly you do not have to rely on any family abroad to move.. this is an other mistake people make.. they think they will have support but this support is actually a limiting option ... it doesn't let you get on feet quicker. Nobody can support you for long abroad and sooner than later you have to get on your feet. once you over stay your welcome you can start getting some unwelcoming vibes and then you get depressed thinking there is no one genuinely yours in this country.. you waste your initial time relying on your family.. better start without them in the first place and get going from day one.. and lastly 2 3 months is nothing to settle any where let alone in Canada.. you have to be patient, persistent and focused and after 2 years and after seeing all the calendar and religious seasons twice, you finally start to think of new place as your home.. its hard but in the end it's truly worth it and then you can never go back to India or Pakistan

Yes they are. Quit the letting in international students. They never leave an bring too many other people in. What we trying too be america

Those who don't like Canada, please go back to where you came from. If you were born in Canada and want to leave, because you don't like the government, vote for a government to your liking, or, go to wherever they will let you in.

Yes please leave. Anyone else thinking of leaving please leave as well. We don't need or want you. Funny how our population keeps increasing. If you are one of the people thinking of leaving, just know that your probably one of the reasons thing are not like they use to be. Bye bye and don't let the door hit you in the ass.

This can’t be true ppl are not leaving if it is then please hurry up and go sell your house and go come on leave tonight goooooooo I’m tired of living in a basement apartment let’s go get out

Ive been in around Toronto since 1973 and lived downtown 20 years ago, I owned a condo, and let me tell you the city was so much better 20 years ago its not even funny. It was also way better in the 80’s, in fact the entire country was better in the 80’s . Today the city is a ?show mostly due to the cost of living and I hope to leave soon to Niagara or Cambridge.

There are a million Palestinians that want to leave…. Egypt nor Israel will let them leave. Jordan flat out won’t take anyone and so will many others. get real people do not want to sit in a ruined town hoping their family doesn’t get killed

I laugh at immigrants that want to leave because of all the problems they created by coming here. Don't let the door hit you on your icicle on the way out.

I am living in Australia, great to hear you are leaving Canada. Yes Canada. I have visited Canada and love it. Great place for skying in winter, hopefully you found a country soon. Let me give you some suggestion of choice to got to 1. Afghan, Pakistan, Yeman and Gaza will be the best choice as you can help build the country back. Good luck.

I’m willing to help you move! Let me know if you need anything to help you reach this goal. No need to wait. January is a great time to leave and head somewhere warm. ?

Could you just leave already and don't let the door hit you on the way out.

You're leaving? Oh well. Don't let the door hit you on the way out!

Please leave, take other muslims. Iam not even canadian and I saw on news these muslims saying they need shariya law in canada. Shariya and democracy won't go hand in hand. Just leave and take that muslim idiology with you. Let canada live peacefully without your peaceful religion..

If they want to leave there in Palestine they should start behaving like people and learn to live with their neighbors ( Jews, whose actual land it’s theirs) so, Palestinians should be grateful the Jews are letting them live on their lands!

I want to leave australia for exact reasons. I have 2 little girls. One day walking at the beach we saw a man with big belly walking around in very revealing bikini. I take my kids far away so they dont see him. Sad thing is no one notice him. People in west have lost the plot. Lost their head in the clouds. If they think thats acceptable i dont have to accept it. If your kids are not at school yet dont over plan it. Let Allah guide you. We are currenly in bali. And will travel malaysia turkey and egypt. We wanto worldschool our kids work online and have multiple bases ❤❤❤

Let's keep Canada a secular country! \nMuslims are doing their best to change Canada into an Islamic caliphate praying in the middle of busy streets blocking traffic so people can't get to long waited for doctor's appointments or business appointments. Muslims want the call to prayer five times a day to stop everything for everyone not only muslims. If it is a muslim holiday they expect the whole country to take the holiday and that all businesses must close because of their religion. The most logical thing for moslems to do is move to a moslem country that follows their moslem precepts and leave Canada so we can remain a free country not tethered to religion unless we choose that mode of living.

Please leave Palestinians alone, let them live peacefully in their own land. Stop killing innocent Palestine ??..

So let me get this right: you came here to Canada (likely on a Student Visa, likely subsidized by Canadian tax payer - taking the spot of a Canadian born student, but believe you’re now entitled to a job (assuming you mean in your ideal profession)? Question: why don’t you get your “work experience” on an airline? As for your complaints about the cost of living, infrastructure, and housing challenges Canadians face too - do you not realize that you’re part of the problem for Canadians born here? Seriously! If you’re thinking of leaving, please do! It would make life so much easier for the rest of us, and we won’t have to listen to your ungrateful whining..

And there it is. You almost sounded normal for awhile but then u showed your true colors with your number one reasons for leaving. You try and make us believe that u would let everyone live in peace but u really only care about yourselves and your muslims brothers. LEAVE, PLEASE !!
