Government will always try to find a way to make some money , it’s sad

Sad story really, but there are many other international students who get it even worse. At least Indian students speak English, have a very large support community in Canada (where pretty much every other person is from India). I only speak because I know. Try coming to this land with no English and no connections at all ...and from a small country in South America, then you really are in trouble.

Thank you for sharing putting this information out for everyone to see. I will try my best to do my part to help these beautiful innocent young people ??

poor young ppl just trying to have a better life, rest in peace

OFCOURSE CANADA WILL BE BORING FOR BLAK PEOPLE... BECAUSE THEY CAN'T DESTROY IT AND BE LAWLESS LIKE THE US AND AOTHER PLACES, PLUS IN CANADA YOU HAVE TO GET OFF YOU ARSE AND WORK, AND CAN'T LIVE OF THE GOVERNEMNT.........TRY GOING TO SWITZERLAND AND OTHER DEVELOPING NATIONS, YOU ALL MIGHT JUST COMPLETELY DIEE.....

I would like to add that same happened to me in my father's case who passed away. The officer was hostile for no good reason, not once but twice. I am still trying to get any information from them. He openly threatened me that he will not provide me with any information and that he is the only point of contact to get information. Why? I still struggle to understand. If they can abuse their power to hold death over someone, why not right? Like the lady, I had provided extensive documentation still threats. He accused me of random things, spoke in a very condescending tone from hello. He was extremely upset about me calling from USA for whatever reason. I fail to understand where is humanity.

shame on scummy institutions like apply board and all the other agencies trying to make a quick buck and throwing the lives away of students and there families back home

the part where the one student in India is asked why he wants to go in Canada and he says he wants a white collar job and the life he dreamed of which I would imagine entails a Canadian wife as well? In other words, shouldn't Canada try to attract people to do work in building homes and things we need instead of rent seeking industries like banking, insurance etc... that doesn't improve the lives of Canadians already born here (and in some cases go generations back)

Why do we want to bring a quarter of the Indian population to our small-towns and cities? I don't understand I'm not trying to be rude I just feel that it will forever change our country.

Untold truth that you find out when you get here….They do Human trafficking and psychological domination by lying to people from other Countries to get them here it is so sad to see we try to be as nice as we can to people getting here but life is so miserable to find out you were lied to…..The truth is that we are born to have children and a family….and about the health care system is under attack and destroyed as well as our governing structure media’s educational and more being destroyed so you have to be really careful to survive right now for Canadians can you imagine people coming from other Countries being lied to and abused? WE ARE HOLDING THE LINE WE REALLY LOVE YOU????♥️

So I think Canada is ranked 3rd best in the world to live in (I might be wrong but it's top 5 for sure). Your speaking about nothing to do in Canada, Health care concerns, high taxes or cost of living and other things (honestly your video was just hurting my head listing to). While Canada does have issues (like any other country in the world) What you outline highlights the privileged life you are living. You are correct in pointing out that the health care system is flawed, it is not perfect by all means but AT LEAST YOU ARE GETTING HEALTH CARE. Take the stats for example (I had the privilege of going to the hospital in Texas) My bill came to 3000 for a twisted ankle. They charged me over 500 dollars just for walking into the hospital. I'm not knocking that stats, but if you do not have money, you're fucked for health care. Instead of waiting 8 hours to see a doctor, you're now on Web MD trying to diagnose yourself. You are bitching about high taxes, how do you think Schools, Police and fire services, Emergency service hospitals etc etc etc get paid? through wishes and hope? You are again welcome to go anywhere else and enjoy whatever bs they have going they might have low taxes in other parts of the world but your going to have to pay for certain services you are taking for granted here. As Cost of living, if you live in Toronto or BC yes the cost of living is high, but at the same time, the average household income is high as well. I'm sorry minimum wage in most of Canada is roughly 15 dollars an hour, and the average incoming for most provinces is over 100k. I'm not sure what else to say on that subject :D As for things to do, seriously, stop living under a rock. Please go and travel Canada, to name a few things you can travel to Niagara, Go to Banff, Visit hot springs or enjoy any of our national parks. Not to mention all the multicultural festivals that take place. I guess what I'm trying to say here is, Canada is flawed and has its issues. However, It's a beautiful country and is a gem of a place to put roots down. I'm sorry you guys didn't feel that way.

Try South Africa ?? Village and city cultures are all different so get a feel before settling permanently.

As a sikh we are taught to stand and fight for justise for everyone. He was smiling because he was making big deal about it, instead of respectfully trying to reason with him. That's what I am upset about.

Don't like it leave it nobodies forcing black Africans to stay try Jamaica lots Africans live there

What is wrong with people i mean we should try and respect everyones religion respect for this guy

I know that the actions seen out here in the video is kind of an extrem, but I believe whatever measures were taken it was for the welfare of keeping everybody safe in which my Sikh brother had no bad intentions but it was all an honest mistake.  According to my understanding he could've worn the Kripan under his T-shirt.. no disrespect to nobody but I'm here with all my Love and Respect to all.. \nAnd He being out of India.. people might have heard or know about Sikhism but respectively being in a totally different country it'll be a cultural shock to some of its fellow country's residents and that too he is in an educational environment or zone where a lot of unfortunate events had occur in the past few years due to violence.. so taking these reasons and unfortunate incidents under consideration.. our dear Sikh brother did not do anything wrong in openly carrying a Kripan (knife) for it is his cultural right and had gone some kind of a rituals in order to carry a Kripan for self-defense. But people will still feel some kind of uneasiness when it comes to weapons seen in and around educational area or zones. \nSo whatever measures had been taken for the safty of all.. especially by the security as he was doing his job by understanding the situation. No heard feeling to nobody but I just wanted to get my point across regarding this incident. N I know my Sikh brothers n sisters will definitely come to an agreement of understanding in what I'm trying to say..

A foot long knife isnt for school ...... Nice try though

Salam sameer bhai great job. Ap ky her video dahkta hon. Ma khud Canada try krna chata hon .ma ksa ma b kam kiya .mary pass KSA ka licence b he.tu Mary liya kya bhter raha ga Pori detail dY..i wait your reply sameer bhai .

Never ever try to take panga with Sardar.

alberta pays equalization payments to quebec, plus we didnt have premier trying to tax the unvaxed..... AB#1

That's absolutely fine, knife earlier Sikh used to carry because of mugals and khalsa was also created to protect Sikh and Hindus from Islamic Invaders , why the fuck he need to carry a knife in University, he is having his beard and turban that's enough for his identify this jerk is a khalistani show off over enthusiastic who is trying to be a Sikh, In India we have millions of Sikh hardly any one ever carry this

If anyone wants to move or visit montreal, you can very well make it without speaking french. The very vast majority of montreal speaks english as their second language. However, I still strongly recommend you learn at least a bit of french as the further you get from montreal, the less english speakers you will encounter (this can be as low as 30km away). Also, even if people do speak english as their second language, no one likes to get forced to adapt their speaking to someone who doesn't even try to make an effort to speak in the local language. So it is best if you learn at least the basics like: Hello -> Salut; Do you speak english? -> Parlez-vous anglais?; I don't speak french -> Je ne parle pas français;... And other basic sentences you would expect to say. More likely than not people will still switch to english if you know nothing in french, but usually people are more than happy if you try to speak their language and it makes for a more enjoyable experience all around.

Please keep away religious practice from public places… and try to understand the logic why it was needed in past . Time has changed, grow up!

Avoid wearing religious symbols in educational institutions. While for us it's just a holy Kripan, but try to see other's perspective as well. They might feel unsafe.

I don't get why people are expected to know other's religious traditions and practices. You go to a different country, then try and assimilate

If you are going to another country and a place where your beliefs are foreign ... Try following the rule of the place. Do not expect everything to magically change according to you. \n\nRespecting the rule of the land is not a bad thing and whichever deity or god you follow is not going to punish you based on that.

No one is attending calls from your Lahore office.I'm trying for a week.

The story of the Russian guy going back to Russia to avoid taxes didn't age well. I remember watching this video in 2021 and thinking that the higher taxes are worth it because you are essentially buying safety. It doesn't matter if the income tax of your home country is lower if the local currency keeps devaluating, if you can't buy what you want because importing is hard and expensive or if your country is simple just not a safe place to live. Now with the war and the sanctions, your Russian friend must be having a really hard time; borders closed, the ruble is nearly worthless and he's probably trying to flee the country to avoid being drafted, leaving any real estate behind.

I tried the CRS score simulator, and I cannot believe my score is way below the latest cutoff. I'm 35 years old with PhD degree, already maximized the IELTS score. The only thing that can still bump up my score is if I can get a job offer in Canada, but even with that the score is still just a bit below the cut off. Is it really difficult to pass the cut off? does this mean I'd have 0 chance of getting the ITA?

She is right I haven't tried applying yet but I think it works

You must be talking about TORONTO...try Montreal

The healthcare system had been overwhelmed not do much because they're free but because the provincial governments have tried a dozen ways to defund them over the decades and have treated their employees like shit.

Boring? Try leaving your living room and visiting the second biggest country in the world? There is so much to do here if your version of fun isn't just going to clubs. If you have no interest in outdoor activities or you're afraid of snow then yes Canada isn't for you. Stay where you are and don't move here.

Hmmmm I guess it's true.! Different strokes for different folks. I know people from Africa that have come to Canada complaining that their Country is too hard to live in. There's problems all around the world. I tried explaining this to a friend that it is not easy here in Canada they said their Country is Worse.! This person is from Nigeria ?? ?

Russian propaganda created by RT that trying to hurt economic development of Canada. Canadian government should investigate these people they probably Russian agents.

Sounds like USA ?we are all trying to leave here also because of the same reasons

wow you 2 ungrateful are complaining about 30 to 40% taxes, well why do you think third world countries are at at point they are? people are poor because they lack economic opportunities, good schools, teachers, new way of teaching the kids that they haven't even heard in the countries you were born in, the overall lack of corruption, when anytime you have to deal with any kind of public official for any kind of permit that might need, well build infrastructures, good public Universities, and a decent healthcare system, an independent well functioning judiciary system that is far less corrupted than the countries you were born at............ You 2 are delusional, in the south of USA they don't tax that much, you should see how the Blacks are treated, 2 months that the city of Jackson in Mississippi has no running water, I recommend you 2 to move there, and enjoy the low taxes.... BY the way look as well at the mortality rates for all the Child births in the south, and life expectancy rates.... And trust me I am an immigrant myself, so I know that people are not working as much as here in North America, but or you inherited your house from a family member or you are living in their homes, in that case yes you can sit and do nothing, and if you find a job you will get paid a few hundred dollars per month........ Try to put food on the table with that salary, even in lower cost countries... trust me they struggle 3 times as I do here in North America...

same life style in sweden! health care is poor and waiting times are lengthy, some people, try healing themselves when sick. We pay tax and every appoointment is cash orriented despite.

Wait...so..Canada is encouraging immigrants to come, but isnt accepting their education from abroad? My goodness...??\nYes, I can understand someone leaving. From what you described and what I have heard from Canadians living in the US, Canada is not a country for someone who is a go-getter and trying to build a better life for their family. Not a average life, a much better one.

there is nothing you said that is not true of western lifestyles in general\nI’m in ‘one of the best’ countries In Europe and I swear all your points are the same here\n\nIt may be that our African spirits are designed for way more than this scarcity mindset behind capitalism \n\nA close friend is moving to Canada next week\nI can’t share your video with her cos she’s spent her whole life trying to get in

Free health care makes the system overwhelmed and causes delays in getting treatment, try being in a situation where u have a life-threatening illness and can't afford treatment. It's hard to build wealth in Canada, try building your stupendous wealth in a country that is unsafe with poor infrastructures. There's no perfect situation in life but I think having a good quality of life supersedes wealth accumulation and most other things.

LOL next time you go to British Columbia go to where I'm from and it's a little Valley called blueberry Creek it's in the interior about 400 mi from Vancouver Vancouver isn't as bad as you say it seems that way but truly I lived there for about 10-15 years after I grew up in blueberry and it is definitely unpredictable that's for sure you have to take an umbrella with you or a raincoat or a sweater or something cuz you could go out in the morning it's bright and sunny and by the time you get to the bus stop it's raining that is very true but it doesn't last long there is certain seasons that it rains but if you look at the meteorology it really isn't that much more than anywhere else and gloomy you want to talk about gloomy you live in Alberta I live there for quite a while and one morning I woke up and I just couldn't take it anymore all you see is different shades of gray and brown so I packed up and went home and finally saw green again I'm glad you guys are in Canada but boy do I hear you I used to be middle class owned a home and some land and then I became homeless because yes that's what our government is trying to do they don't want me to class people we have too much power when Harris came into power he almost succeeded in wiping out the middle class dirt poor have no say in anything so I'm trapped here I hope you guys have the freedom to go where you like I really do you guys are great

People in the comments saying these young Nigerians are unpatriotic, and comparing them to the Ghanaian lady. Has the like of the 2020 #EndSars Massacre occured in Ghana before? Or are you saying the Nigerian youths who marched out that day because they dream of a greater nation are also unpatriotic? Its not a question of loyalty, when you don't feel valued or even safe at the minimum by your own people, so why try to guilt trip anyone? If your current vision of Nigeria is from as recent as 2015, I assure you that the Nigeria of 2022 isn't even close, maybe you need to go back home, earn in local currency and live there for awhile to understand their perspective. Home or abroad everyone can still contribute to the development of their country, so let people be. Lets avoid guilt tripping anyone because they've made choices they are fully entitled to.

So is it advisable to leave to leave the UK for Canada? For those who have tried this route how is Canada compared to the UK because the UK is hard hard

I have some very important questions for you NAIJA MUMUS AND ASHAWOS ON HERE: ????\nIf omonaija is so great that you folks are so proud of then why do you people feel the need to constantly flock and flee to everyone else's country all over this planet only to totally disrespect the citizens and try to dominate their country and moreover WHY do you people always feel the need to push and shove your cultures, lingos, swags, food, clothing and every damn thing else that's pertaining to your country down people's throats and force people to accept that bs just to try to impress them with your NAIJA ??️ COUNTRY??? ?????

Una try ?...learnt a lot but e hard, e too hard but una no wan come back home ??\nWe no dey pay tax for naija like una dey pay for Canada yet una no wan come back home\nHealthcare terrible for Canada...makes naija especially Lagos state healthcare system (the best in the country) look 5 star yet una no wan come back home.\nCanada dey boring like hell but naija dey bubble yet una dey run.\nAll I'm saying is,it isn't easy anywhere in the world and human wants are insatiable. We for naija dey complain...we wan japa,una way lucky to japa dey warn say make we no show for una place for there as things no easy...yet una tẹẹpa sibẹ.\nCanada go pay some people and e no go pay some as naija sef pay everybody ....make God just lead us go where we suppose dey.\nSome people's blessings dey naija or togo but dem don run go Canada and vise versa.

I laughed so hard at the truth you speak. Im a Canadian & I complain about these same things. I hear you sisters. My family are immigrants & they busted there butt working hard and still trying. I agree with this & it shouldnt be this way Canada can be a beautiful place full of culture, peace & friendship. I believe it starts with the people & the gov't reducing taxes.

Girls I'm listening and trying to find out what's unique to Canada apart from cold where else is better to move to? The things you're pointing out is the entire country you're taking about?

Me the only thing that will make me come back if I japka na to visit my family or when I want to build different projects in Nigeria but aside from that I'll never try that ooooo me and God knows

WhizQueen, try to make a video on how to move to Canada. T for thanks.
