The problem with Canada is Trudeau, their gun laws and it’s too cold. Apart from that, it’s lovely. Alberta, Jasper and Banf are stunning.

Brother, I also want to come to Canada, how can I get this job?

Canada sucks

Canada does sound lovely. Until the govt forces you to get experimental clot shots, seizes your bank account if you object and compels you to use the wrong pronouns when addressing mentally ill people. But seriously, Trudeau (and his daddy Klaus at the WEF) is a problem.

Canada has fewer African Americans, so it can only be safer. I'm Black, btw

If ur speaking from Canada ur lying you want to discourage others

Moving to Canada from America is like walking into the next room.

So Quality of life is amazing in Canada, want cheap flights go to U.S lol

Only register in Sate Colleges, that are accredited. Don't come unless you're fluent in English. Do not attend a for profit college. Be responsible for your education; visas are not applicable to non-English speakers. Go to legitimate schools. You'll not get a job from Canada, nor employers. India is responsible for much. If you don't understand this, stay in Punjab.

I just found out one MASSIVE difference between the US and Canada. Canada is attempting to force Jordan Peterson to go through social media reeducation or lose his liscense. That means free speach is dead in Canada. This religates Canada to some third world backwater nothing.\nWhile parts of the US are desperately trying to follow Canada's example, there are enough people in the US standing against it that it has yet to happen. That means the US can still claim to be kind of somewhat of a legitimate country.

I was born and raised on the east coast of Canada, lived in Vancouver and visited Montréal Edmonton, Calgary with the acception of Winnipeg I’ve seen every major city in Canada. \n\nI will always have pride for my country and love for my family there but it has changed dramatically since 2010.\n \nI will say the transportation in Canadian cities are better and so is the crime and the food but you have to drive a minimum of an hour to get anywhere outside the city, your not leaving that city without a car and good luck surviving without a car outside the city, and VIA rail is way overpriced. The GO train is nice though.\n\nLiving in America it has changed a lot since covid too though people are a lot more desperate and you can feel it but people are too prideful to admit, where in Canada people are struggling and they dress and look terrible and fail to dress nice because there is less prideful.\n\nCanadians are not nice people they are passive aggressive and will not got out of their way to help you most of the time (modern day) kind of like Californians.\nThe east coast Americans are rude and trashy but they will help you if you show respect. There just no fun to be around mostly ? overall North Americans are chauvinistic.\n\nJobs are harder to get in Canada and opportunity isn’t there, but it is very relaxed.\nAmerica is overcrowded and stressful especially for a Canadian.\nMontréal is cheap rent great food, and being personally bilingual I like the French, but there infrastructure is terrible and the people are depressed and disgustingly rude and they have no customer service.\n\nVancouver is overpriced in every way possible, beautiful city, great seafood but it’s not worth the price tag, you would be better of living in a San Francisco, the crime in Richmond and burnaby and new Westminster and hasting street is just as bad as San Francisco’s tenderloin.\n\nToronto is big and fun yet it doesn’t feel Canada at all, it feels like it’s been hijacked by American and foreign companies. It’s beautiful but lots of rats and bad traffic. People are relatively nicer there but it’s still expensive like New York.\nCalgary is very pretty probably my favorite, it’s just cold AF and kinda pricey. Probably perfect for families.\nEdmonton is flat and boring but I like it’s proximity to Calgary ?\nOverall it’s one of the best countries to live in the west but if you like fast paced, opportunity, diversity, traveling and are rich enough for elite education then come to America. Lastly Canada is a democracy so bills can be passed faster but that can also be a bad thing if you have a courrupt gov’t, cough cough trudeau.\nAmerica is a republic so it is harder to pass laws which can suck but it is also harder for people like uncle joe to overreach. Overall in America you are more free but in Canada you are more at peace. \n\nI’ve lived in America for six years and moved here at 20yrs so this is just my experience.

Ive watched all sorts of people on you tube telling they can help get you into Canada and find jobs etc they are just out to line their own pockets sadly people believe their lies this is the result.

I’m from New Zealand so there’s only 5million people here, Canada seems more appealing than US to visit just because the US seems out the gate cray cray.

My dream is to move out to canada, I lived in 2 countries before for a couple of years, but If I wanna settle down someday, I wanna stay in canada, I speak french & english fluently and I love how goddamn polite they are ?

Pretty sure Canada even surpassed the states in upward mobility, as of 2020.\n And yea, our water is bad. Literally toxic. I hate how much I contribute to the plastics issue but I'm not making my kids drink that sludge.

canada fucking sucks LOL

Canada - Healthcare\nCanada - Medication\nCanada - Water\nCanada - Safety\nCanada - Culture mix

I'll agree on the tap water... and I'm as close to Canada as you can get w/o being in Canada (Detroit)... \nSo much junk in our water here... \nI keep a pot (low) on the stove in the winter...\nafter a week... the bottom is lined with limestones or whatever tf lol\n\nIn Detroit, even the water hard. :p

I have never heard any one say Canada is the best country in the world

Canada ain't ? bunch of ass kissing cowards.

Canada Pros: get to see doctor for free\n\nCanada Cons: he'll try to keel you.

Canada has become a WEF state

Y'all have 38 million ppl total in Canada. US has 331 million ppl and both have near equal land mass. 9.094 vs U.S. 9.148 million square klicks. More than 8x's the ppl in the same land mass.

Safety is the reason I wanna move to Canada before I die

first of all you are wrong in one small concept America is a continent not a country not just USA so you are right in that america has a shit ton of countries in it included usa, canada, uruguay, brazil, argentina, etc...to give a few examples

I would take my chances in Surrey, Canada than the south east side of Chicago as far as safety goes ?

Once someone takes out Trudeau, I'll move to Canada

During the Civil War in El Salvador, all the Salvadorian went to LA for a better life. Only to be attacked by the Mexicans and blacks. The next thing that happened, MS 13, was born in America. If Salvadorians went to Canada, MS might never have been born.

LMAO, flying in the USA is expensive as hell compared to Europe.\nI am European, prices in the USA are insane in comparison, I didn't realise Canada had it even worse.

You forgot to to mention we got bags of milk in Canada ??

I live in a very rural place in canada (almost. 3.5 hours from the nearest city. 4 hours even in winter from having to be more careful driving) and im more northern than most of the country by far. We have a nice mexican restaurant (which ive been to mexico more than once so i can confirm its mostly to par lol) and a nice vietnamese cafe and some other stuff. Town is probably about 12 000 people.

Only question. Why are you still paying rent? I know Canada has the highest home prices in the world but still....

If it wasn’t for the damn cold in Canada I would have been out, but that cold is different enough to make me me look at all the positive and be like nah I’m good.

I'm sure the demographics have nothing to do with why Canada has safer cities and nicer happier higher average IQ people right? Hint its 90% white/ southeast asian and only 4% black and less than 1% hispanic/ latino.

Cons to Canada:\n\nGovernmental system that lacks fundamental checks/balances\n\nInsanely bland food (ik this is gonna trigger a lot of people, but American food almost everywhere is so insanely superior and cheaper)\n\nVery difficult to get guns (for some people pro)\n\nWeather (for some people pro)\n\nAirline prices (as what was mentioned)\n\nPeople seem to come off very mean or serious (at least in the Toronto area)\n\nPros to Canada:\n\nMore left leaning politics (for some people good)\n\nOverall a safer country\n\nTap water (although where I live in the US it is the exact same)\n\nMore regulation on harmful products\n\nPublic transportation, city layouts

WHATS THE MATTER GAY AND MORE GAY. BUTT FUK AND CREEP. COULDNT TAKE THE HEAT IN AMERICA. THATS WHY YOU MOVED TO SIMP CANADA. GOOD. STAY THERE AND DONT COME BACK. 1 LESS DANGERIOUSE GROUP OF MEN IN THE COUNTY

In conclusion, Canada is better

Is Canada as woke as America????

Your last point - it happens in Canada as well. Look at the Vancouver suburbs of Richmond or Surrey. I've heard mainly people from Toronto be surprised at how multicultural yet segregated Vancouver can be.

Only place this NYer would ever consider in Canada is the province Alberta. NO thanks to big cities...anywhere.

This problem has introduced an invasive species to Canada, like jellyfish in the Great Lakes. \n\nWe desperately need to cull the Eastern population.

Canada is rasicst as fuck and it cost a lot of money to live there in their big cities. It's only safe because you have no freedom. Canda is safe because America protects it like a baby ? ? ? it also has 30 million people where as we have 350 million ?. They have two national languages so the entire country is hugely divided into those two groups. You can't have a gun or freedom of speech in Canada. Justin True-hoe is the president of Can-i-die ??‍♂️ and the weather is icy cold year round just like the hearts of the country's population ?‍♂️

As someone who was born and spent decades growing up in Toronto who moved to the US years ago and spend time regularly in multiple states, I disagree vehemently with what Aba said about safety. Aba did not recognize that not only is the US like 50 different countries, with each state being somewhat unique unto themselves, but the cities are like an amalgamation of 2 or 3 different cities. What I mean by that is about the safety and security aspect, it all depends on where you live and where you hang out. Undoubtedly, US ghettos and the sketchy clubbing districts are generally worse than Canadian housing projects and such. If you live in the regular or especially good parts of the city, it's totally safe. \nBecause most US towns and cities are built around neighborhoods, security and safety is always a big selling point. As long as you avoid the ghetto and late night 'action' areas, it's generally safer than Toronto. Toronto suffers from an outbreak of car break ins, car thefts, home break ins and recently car jackings all over. Many US neighborhoods and areas have no such thing. On a side note, as a POC, I also have experienced far less racism in the US than I used to in Toronto. Without getting into a can of worms, if you live in a Democrat controlled city vs. Republican one, you are going to experience more crime, more homeless, higher unemployment, etc. You guys are referencing LA, which has become far worse, like San Francisco and New York. \nAnd the cost of living comment is ridiculous. Again maybe LA and NYC which are shadows of what they once were. Canada has far higher tax burden, way higher inflation, prices of food, energy, clothes and homes are off the charts. In Texas, Florida, Tennessee and Washington, we have ZERO income tax as well as lower tax than the HST. No way, Aba and Preach are dead wrong on these issues, because they are using LA or NYC as a reference. There's a reason the movies Escape From New York and it's sequel Escape From LA are such prophetic movies.

I stay in Las Vegas and don't drink from the tap. Canada doesn't seem so bad now...oh and our transportation infrastructure sucks.

If you like Canada then cool. Only thing is that a lot of people in those major cities are just self rightious liberal cuckholds. That and there is a literal racist (by modern standards) in leadership.

To be fair LA is quite a sprawl, but LA county has 25% of the population of Canada

No idea where i got this impression, but i thought you get arrested for opinions in canada.

My family and I had been trying for years to immigrate to Canada, doing everything right, yet always denied. It’s crazy to me how easy millionaire have it.

helo sir, I want to work in canada and wana move in canada with my spouce,from pakistan, no job yet but previousely experinced and worked as and admin and accounts

I'm American and I've been to Canada 2 times. But when I went to Montreal for my 18th birthday, I fell in love with the city and I remember saying that I wanted to move there in the future. I've been studying French just for that because I know that's the language mainly spoken there. I plan on visiting Toronto again this spring or summer so I'm excited. I've always liked Canada \n?? ♥ ?? ✌
