As a Canadian this is hilarious. The seal clubbing joke though, oof. Fair. Also it’s poutine, not poutin (sorry for correcting).

Canadians must hate me because I can't tell the difference between their accent and the US ones ? but then again, I also occasionally mix up British and Australian accent as well so maybe it's just my destiny to make all English speakers uncomfortable.

Also, there's a lot more to Canada than Toronto and Vancouver. Seriously, you should consider adding Calgary to your list. Then we'd be able to come see you!

Poutine is indeed consumed best under drunkenness. It also prevent you from being sick after too many drinks... or make it waaaay worse, really depends.

Great work lads! Couple things right quick: it's pronounced poo-TEEN, also NEW-f'n-land. ? Otherwise good job with the phonology - based on the people I've known from thereabouts, Arms sounds to me like he might be a middle-aged techie from rural Ontario, which makes perfect sense here?

the justin b joke got me, i was also thinking wait jb is canadian but then you got me

Canada is also the biggest exporter of alt - right nut cases to USA.

The Canadian accent is ??????Also couple things to ask, would you mind telling La Bullshat thanks for the video he did for me on Saturday? I really appreciate it! ?

Looks like Hog is in holiday season mood already. Also, FAH the great educators. I'm off to read about (a ?) the Nunavut land claims agreement to appreciate that joke more than I already do.

I'm sorry about this, great video as always but also sorry that I didn't know that those celebrities were Canadian

2:09 what is menacing about a Muslim man standing? Also, what does the isis video have to do with this story?

My Indian evisa is also taking very long its supppse to take upto 72hrs its been more than a week, I called twice and they say they don't know how much longer it will take...I assume its happening to all visas, maybe because of the new variant...honestly don't know....just hope for the best , missing India alot?

How these entitled people play with people's jobs. There was definitely some provocation for him to be behaving like that. You're going to a government office, not a retail shop . Don't even know how to behave inside a respected organization. Behaving lije they're haggling with a vendor for discount . Also, why aren't the couple being caught and punished for filming inside a government office illegally

Taali ek hath se nahi bajhti hai. Also, phone recording is not allowed inside embassy

These people are like this only .. they work according to their mood. He should be fired from his job and also the one who asked to switch off the phone

This is just one side of the story. The officer also tried to say you wr shouting on me which they obviously denied.\nIt's sad how social media propagates tailor made stories and creates false narrative.

except that cost of living is also many times higher

To be fair, a large percentage of immigrants to the United States move back also. Even during the Cold War, refugees from the Soviet Union moved back in large numbers. It is natural for people to think of what they’re gaining when they move someplace and not focus on what they’re losing. A lot of the times you don’t even know what you’re losing until you get there. No place is a dream.

You gals are on point with most of the things. However, there are few things that were not discussed here that might be of help to those planning to immigrate. Things that they should know before they pack their bags in the hopes that they will have the best of both worlds once they land in Canada. Most immigration agents give false hopes as they get paid for doing so. So, research, research, research before you put all your money in one basket. While some people return to their home country because they eventually have come to realization that Canada will not give them the life they hoped for, others some how manage to settle down. Then there is another group that stay behind because they have no place to go because they made the big mistake of putting all they had in one basket and took risk of spending it in Canada. Also, if you are a professional, you are better off working in U.S than Canada. Job opportunities in U.S for professionals are far better than in Canada. Finding a job in Canada is based on whom you know rather than what your skill sets and qualifications are. Foreign qualifications including U.S degrees are not well accepted in Canada. U.S employers hire based on skill sets and whom you know is not much of a factor that will impact your job search. Unlike Canada, U.S accepts foreign qualified workers in most professional jobs and do not require that you to study in U.S for most professional fields. While pay is 40% more in U.S for the same job in Canada, home prices in U.S are 40% less expensive than in Canada. Food for thought.

Thanks for ge valuable information \nCan you please tell fb groups name\nSo that we could also follow as same as u did

Born and raised francophone from Québec, that has seen ALL of Canada and I love it ALL. Every province and territories are amazing. Also lived in Ontario, Alberta and BC.

Hi. Most BC jobs are service industry and the pay is garbage. Victoria is boring and full of drugs, while Vancouver is loud and full of more drugs. Our labour laws are shit, our public services are underfunded, and there's no housing. Don't come here and do better research.\n\nOh also were underwater at the moment. Bring swim trunks.

Quebec is also the most corrupt with politicians that make the mafia look like Boy Scouts. Also the French spoken there is a patois that is un recognizable to all other French speaking countries on the planet.

You forgot to mention that Quebec is also the most racist and intolerant of aboriginal people second only to Saskatchewan... but good list ntl

Hi, I have a question that I need to make sure. I can apply for ITA before I send my diploma, right? I am going to get my diploma in June, but I want to speed up the process so can I apply for ITA in May? \nAnd also I’m aiming the best score for IELTS. In the CRS Calculation site it says 7.5-9 is the highest for Speaking. Does it matter if I get 8.5 or 7.5 for example? \nThanks in advance.

Proof of funds k solution bataao plzz kaise kiya ? Also which Facebook group did help u a lot plzz mention

The population in Canada is still low In compared with its size. There are not many companies in Canada. Living cost is high and tax also. That country is just for tourism.

The best final of all: Learn French if you move to Québec! ? Salary are also higher for bilinguals… ??$$

Taxes are way too high for the middle class because Banks,Corporations and Wealthy people do not pay their fair share of taxes\nHere is an example : 10.000 Dollars bonuses taxed at 45% (Bonuses = Unpaid Overtime hours in the private sector)\nTook home 5,500 . Bought used car for 5000. Government wants 13% (HST). total cost of the car is 5,650 dollars\nNeed an extra 150 dollars (5500 + 150) to purchase the car. No license plate, no car insurance yet\nVery frustrating .. there is also a tax on the insurance

Great country Canada and Canadians! There is more islamophobia in South Asia and rest of the world! Also there is phobia against other communities also, lest we forget!

Yes Quebec should be nice the rest of Canada has to give money to pay for it, in fact I like Quebec because it wants independence and if it can leave then Western Canada can also Separate and get rid of Ontario.

As someone from BC I think we ended up pretty much where I expected. It was also fun to recognize all the the random clips from the province!

What was the point of this…\nBOOK?\n\nMy favourite provinces (not ranking) are Ontario, Alberta, BC, Quebec, and Nova Scotia. \n\nOntario for the history, the world records, *(longest street on earth at least at one point, tallest tower in North America, Toronto most multicultural city, etc.)* and the terrain/coolness of Ontario- the big cities, surprisingly safe, the good weather some places, the icy terrain near Hudson Bay, and pretty nice forests.\n\nAlberta for the coolness aswell, the big cities Calgary and Edmonton are pretty great, and the mountains are awesome, the oil is useful, the lakes are great- and yeah the great, safe place to live overall.\n\nBC for the amazing mountains too, the islands, Vancouver is SO amazing just seeing a picture of it, its unique that a big city is spread across so many islands, and the pacific- \n? oh I do like to be beside the sea side ? \nAnd BC has great forests like Ontario. Just- take in mind that it’s the only province with grizzly bears. (Alberta might idk)\n\nQuebec for the history, (all the history is in Quebec City)\nAnd the great terrain, it looks amazing- they have a lot of Great Lakes (wait Ontario has more, in fact all of those) and even just it’s one big city, Montreal. For the biggest province it’s got just one big city but it is _huge._ and Montreal is a great sight to see. Big city- and stuff. (I’ve been writing too much) oh also French…. Stuff.\n\nNOVA SCOTIA IS GOOD BC well Halifax is pretty freakin sweet and the Atlantic is a great sight as well as in Newfoundland and warmest in PEI. Oh and Nova Scotia is cool bc it holds record for find of the worlds largest lobster on its shore. ? \nIt has some nice villages too but I like the seaside the best out of any province there I think.

Brainless creatures, u can act like a racist ,its easy to say bad words about someones culture but you also belong to one ,so wait for your shit it will come back straight on your face

Hi Navdeep was referring to some Facebook groups on which he got lots of help. Please advise the name of such groups so that we can also get help.

Please give me some guidance.\nMe and my family reside in India. My dad's company shut down and he's looking for a new job. He is qualified for a lot of skilled high paying jobs in Canada but we don't have work permit or PR. Should we apply for work permit first and then try applying for these jobs? Also can we apply to any jobs with work permit or it is limited to PR holders only? Any way to apply without permit?

Why do so FEW people leave Canada? That should be the title. You should also mention that if someone of a very wealthy country comes to Canada, then the probability of staying decreases. You should also compare it because in general Canada is too great

I'm sorry, but Quebec is also legally bilingual

So, you are affirming that your government lives off the sweat of each employee, the government devalues the academic studies of other countries, the climate is very bad, many people are not friendly, and also you forgot to mention the shortage of houses in the country. . Wow! I think Europe and South America sound like better options to live.

Very inspirational video. Even I am also thinking to apply self. Should I complete my its first then i should register

I have traveled to and visited all the provinces and territories (before NW Territories were split) and I love them all. I have also lived in three (BC, Yukon Territories, and Quebec) for varying periods of time. Every place has its charms and, of course, problems. I'd say this though. If you want to live in Canada, take the weather out of the equation. If not, consider somewhere south.

I'd give Newfoundland higher marks for the population, and Alberta lower marks, also for the population (and political stupidity).

The point is, I have been a minority here in india and the hate I receive for being a follower of a religion make them hate on me and my fellow people. I really wanna get out of this shithole. I'm also feeling very suicidal thinking about the situation I'm in. I have reached a point where I have started hating hindus(majority religion in india) and btw this Kumar belongs to the hindu group. Ik I need help with my hate part but you have no idea the amount of hate and racist and communalist comments I receive daily for just following a certain religion. I would really appreciate someone helping me out or give me some sort of advice to keep my feelings about a whole religion normal and not hateful

Quebec isn’t so great for English Canadians who have their language right squashed by the racist Quebec government. Quebec is also subsidized by Alberta due to the unfair provincial equalization system.

No one seems to be sticking up for Saskatchewan. I'm from Ontario but love the place. Rather than being empty, looking out across the prairie you can see forever. The cities may be smaller but they are complete not narrow and that also means easier to get around in. Little wonder folks from places like the Dakotas come up for some culture.

Quebec also has the most uncompetitive tax rate in North America. Source: a Quebec resident

Pretty good Adam I'd just mention a few of those things are...I don't want to say inaccurate but way more diverse. For instance French. Yes Quebec is the only French province BUT New Brunswick is the only Bilingual province and basically half and half. This is good for things like federal of provincial services because by law they must provide service in both languages but not so basically everywhere else. The problem with this is you can have an almost completely English town almost nobody speaks French and drive 15 minutes and be in a town where nobody speaks English. Research on this might be hard because a town with a French name may not have any French people in and vise versa. Also this problem is multiplied in the fact that if you Do want a French area we don't speak standard French or Quebecois but instead Le Chiac which is a difficult and confusing mix of old French and english (almost exactly like the Cajun dialect). Second part of this is that Montreal is easy to live in if you don't speak French and is so multicultural you are just apt to hear Swahili as French in public. Last part is be very careful where you move on the prairies as they have may isolated towns some that speak French also. Next is tipping I've never had to tip anyone for a haircut outside of the military and all other forms of tipping here on the east coast are purely optional and wait staff don't get upset if you don't leave a tip unless you were a jerk or left them extra work like making a big mess (I worked as cook for a while after I got out of the army and I rarely ever head staff complain) HOWEVER....tip a waitress well and she might accidentally give you 2 pieces of pie lol and tip a taxi driver well and he will not only get you the cheapest fare he will find ANYTHING you may need no questions asked. Lastly on the nice thing....we are nice for sure especially compared to our southern neighbours BUT there is a lot of passive aggressive nice that happens and this also varies greatly. For instance as a city boy of course you answered the way you did but a guy who have lived all over this country in big and small, French and English places who now has retired to a rural town I can say I find the cities quite snobby and the French and the English can be quite snobby to each other and where I live now if you asked a random stranger for 5$ chances are you would get it also driving down the road people you don't know will just wave at you as if you were the closest friends. Canada is certainly a weird place so many extremes and my advice to anyone wanting to move here is do your research and then visit and travel a bit if possible because even us Canadians can be surprised by thing or two across this gigantic country

Good information \nI checked all the Canadian immigration programs.They are offering jobs for international in mostly Catagory C and D For Catagory A they have Many restrictions.The employers Need LMiA to hire forgien workers.And you also have to get licenses. go through a long process to get licenses.in skill level C or D you hardly cover your own living expenses.Even in skill level A with out license your pay will not cover your living expenses.you are very wise

Life is excellent in Toronto and southern Ontario so I'm not going anywhere. If I were forced to move, I'd pick Ottawa or Kingston (both also in Ontario, of course). Out of province, my first choice would be Halifax for sure (all of Nova Scotia is pretty special) and probably St. John or Charlottetown next. On the west coast, Victoria just edges out Vancouver in my books. A little surprised that Quebec is first in your ranking but I do love visiting there. Alberta is gorgeous but culturally it's vibe is more American than Canadian. Anyone else find that?
