I am Malaysian, with Malaysian mom and Pakistani dad. 20 years ago my extended families in Pakistan moved to Canada and started life from scratch. Everything was kinda smooth but ever since the government supports genocide, they decided to leave Canada settle down in another muslim country so this would be their second hijrah. They have exactly similar reasons, just like you and i totally support your decision to move out. Much love from Malaysia. ❤

Australia is similar to Canada unfortunately Muslims seem to keep to themselves and do not speak out against Islamophobia or the education system like yourselves.

I tried the immigrant life for 8 years now and can say that social integration in the west is lacking a lot while separation is promoted by insurances and laws, furthermore expenses are much higher while income is much lower....on top of that housing is literally unaffordable and there's a huge dopamine crises which deteriorates the mental health of the society and lets crime rise.\nThe days of glory are over in Canada I guess.

This gives Millions other to migrate to Canada ??. Not for middle class but for poor its still dream come true. Your analysis is wrong as if you do cash work like driving TAXI ? you pay ZERO 0⃣ TAX.You do resemble SUNNY LEONE Indian movie star ?.

Canada is becoming like the USA

Buddy come out of Canadian dream canada or any first world country is not heaven , still chance to go back to your motherlands

I already left. Will arrive in Australia next week for a 30$/ hour entry level job … bye Canada .. bye 15$ wage ~

The TN visa is how they’re leaving Canada and the U.S. is the biggest beneficiary of that brain drain as usual!

430k immigrants came in Q3 of 2023. Unsustainable growth, breaking Canada's social nets. There's a lineup everywhere even for the most basics.

I have lived in almost every big cities in Canada, situation is same everywhere in Canada. There have been massive decline in quality of life in recent few years.

I am a Canadian citizen who moved to Bangkok, Thailand, 26 years ago as I had a professional job there. At that time, I was attracted by the Thai culture, the weather and the quality of life. I have been married to my beautiful Thai wife (S.E. Asian ladies are stunning?) for 23 years and we have two grown up children (one is studying in Canada!). I feel that I have more personal freedom in my daily life here, under a military government, than I would in Canada. There is also fast fibre optic internet, reasonably priced phone plans, the low cost of living (I bought an apartment after the 1997 financial crisis), affordable and world class private hospitals. I have learned the language and this is the perfect country for me to retire in. I could not clearly see the future years ago, but I asked myself, where do we think the future is? With creditor nations or with debtor nations? I am so glad that I made the decision to leave Canada in 1997!

Well Convoy and the covid time just bringed up what kind of an a** hole and dictator Justin Trudeau is. All sympathy for canadiens from Finland. Canada is developing toward as North Korea. Who would be happy in country like that?!

what I have seen since 2001 when I came to Canada is that Canadian immigration policy never improved. the policy makers are either dumb, naïve, or hypocritical

Marna hay to canada say achi koi nhi

I know an experienced doctor from India .... went to Canada and was never able to make it to the medical industry and still working as a waiter in a restaurant.

Canada has become another beautiful insane asylum similar to Oregon and Washington State due to the VOTERS ELECTING Crazy people! Just stop. Kick Trudeau and his sycophants out and elect people who love Canada instead of hating it and what it once was - a very nice place full of very polite people lol!

Many Asians I know have used Canada as a backdoor to the US.

Trudeau is support to Azov in Ukraine against Canada citizens.Prices are weapons to cleanse undesireables

Tyler, love your series on Canada. Could you do one for me? Welcome to Winnipeg: Canada's best kept secret. Thank-you lived there for 45 years

Very high cost of living in Canada is a big problem for new immigrants. Monthly cost in large cities like Toronto, Vancouver and Calgary: rent for a 2 bedroom flat is 1.5 lakh rupees, cost of food (3-4 people) 50,000 rupees,1 bus/train pass 9600 rupees, 1 mobile phone 6000 rupees. How much will you able to save?

I am a foreigner who lives in Canada now. I am not Canadian or East Indian. However, I am 100% SURE that if Canada did not import those useless, disgusting, and rude things, India would have been bankrupt 100% already. Unfortunately, Canada is still importing tons of those things again and again and Canada is about bankruptcy now. The Canadian GDP rate is proving that. Really useless and rude. \nAnd, yes, I also was thinking about PR, but I will leave this country pretty soon. One of the big reasons is the large population of East India in this country who are useless and just causing problems such as lack of health care or inflation.

If I am a marketing executive in Canada and I move to China will I get same or similar level job immediately in China? I suspect not! Why is the expectation misplaced when moving to Canada then?

The only Canadian dream left is to leave Canada.

You keep voting in people like justin trudeau, you deserve everything you get Canada. Don't feel sorry for you at all.

Canada is fine if you have enough money. If you have no money you are a debt slave. \n\nIt's basically a 3rd world country where people with money are fine and people without struggle to afford rent and food even if they work full time.

I stopped visiting Canada 40 years ago because of insane or corrupt border control policies. I traveled to Canada from California to record an album for a popular rock star. My crew number 4 people and we had reserves a month for basic tracking in a studio there. We bought our own reels of 3 inch wide recording tape because the studio wanted twice the rate as normal and since my studio was a distributor for the mastering tapes we brought from my own inventory. Each reel of tape was 3 lbs and brought 30 reels. We got to customs and they said we owed money for importing the tape. Normally a reel would have been $180, and customs wanted $38,000 x 20, and would not let us retrieve it to take it back to the US side of the border. How can a tape worth $180 suddenly have duty of $38,000?\nIt was explained to me as the Potential Value of the tape which meant AFTER a hit song was recording in it. Most recordings are total losses and the tape cant used on a new project even if properly bulk-erased. They expected me to pay on the spot $760,000 in duties. I gave up and left the tape with them. I called the artist and said we could not do the project in Canada and we went back to California. The artist came to us a few months later and the result was a minor hit, and probably barely made its production cost since the label only distributed it in Canada. I talked to an international trade lawyer about what happened and he said customs officials were wrong in Canada but they are given full latitude with no appeal so his advice was never take anything over the border that I did not mind being confiscated. Sometimes they would let it in because it was going back out in a month, but likely they sold it off and pocketed the money. The US is corrupt on a federal level but Canada is corrupt on the local level. I moved out of the US 24 years ago have a much higher quality of life than is even possible in the US, and live very cheaply. Total cost of living with a very active social and cultural life impossible to duplicate in the US which as some of the least options for culture. And my cost of living is $1500 a month, less than utilities alone for one house in California, and that is for 2 people. Last month for example I attended world class opera, ballet and symphonies 9 times, and went out to dinner, in jazz clubs or dance clubs, visited12 top museums, and it was still under $1500 for the month. A pair of tickets to the MET in NYC for lower grade performance, sets, orchestra ad theater, was $1800!! $600 for tickets to drama for 2. Here there 237 drama theaters within walking distance of my city center home, and can walk anywhere at any time of day and be safe due to VERY low crime rates. Free medical is good. I am not citizen but still I had an operation and 10 days in a vip single room for $5300 and despite my insurance I had been paying back in California $824.month, it was going to cost me out o pocket $500,000 and one day in a recovery 12 bed room, and require paid nursing attendant for 30 days. The results were great and was treated like king.\nCanadians have lost control of their government but Americas are screwed regardless, with lower than international standards for everything, with crime, corruption in Washington, extreme cost of living, no access to culture, few if any safe parks. My adopted city is not only far more beautiful than any US city, my GF can walk, alone, anywhere in a city of 7mil at any time of day through any of the 600 beautiful parks open 24/7..at 3am. There are no homeless, and 80% of those over 20yo own their home clear of debt. No college debt despite twice the % of people having degrees. The rest of the world caught up and has surpassed the US and Europe in quality of life. \n\nI have only been back to the US 5 times in 24 years and each time I am shocked by how much the entire society has declined while most of the world outside of Europe, Canada, US, UK or Australia have dramatically improved.\nEvery year since 2008 more Americans leave the US to live elsewhere than legal immigrants arrive.

I’m glad I moved away 10 years ago. I have a better life in Europe than I could ever have in Canada.

Arab countries will never allow Muslims immigrants to enter their countries but they are happy if the immigrants migrate to Europe and America, Canada... what a shame

You left out 2 other huge issues with Canada that did not exist 8 years ago. 1: we have seen very significant democratic backsliding, our current federal government is by far the most oppressive peacetime government in our history on top of being the most corrupt in our history… and 2: crime has been skyrocketing since 2015. Ten years ago Canada was in the top 10 safest countries in the world, we are now barely in the top 20. Criminals have all the rights (thanks to the courts) as the worst government in our history is going after law abiding citizens who have done nothing wrong instead of criminals. They even sued veterans arguing we have no right to equal and fair treatment (a Section 15 Charter violation).

Where will you go if leaving Canada

There needs to be a form of basic competency world issues and economics test before Canadians are allowed to vote.\n\nUnfortunate situation for Ms. Azizi. I would imagine she and many others in the same situation voted 'L' , which means Canada LOSES its standard of living for all, new Canadians and old.

Ok hold on a second. Im an offshore person who wants to immigarte to Canada. Ive spent a huge chunk of money for IELTS and Evaluation of my education solely for thst purpose. How the greedy landlords manipulate the market is not being talked about enough. Your government decides to increase immigration because you guys have been complaining about labor shortage. And when people actuallt went, you started blaming them for driving the housing price? The majority of immigrants are living off basic salasy at an entry level job, are you sure they are the major driver?

It is not sustainable to live in Canada anymore unless you want to be slave for rest of your life. Taxes and Prices are too high to live here.\nHealth care system is fked up along with housing. \n5 of my friends left country for better salary and life to other countries. Find good job is getting harder and harder every year. Low pay job does not even pay your rent. It becomes joke now what they did to this country.\nI have to fly out of country for full medical check up spend 2 hours and 800$ cad but i went thru test which you have to wait in canada 1 year or not permitted. Full CTI Scan MRI , endoscopy and full blood test, etc cost me 800$ and just spend couple hours without waiting so i got my result. In Canada it is not possible even you approve to go.thru test waiting time min 6.month. to visit family doctor 4 weeks waiting time. \nDo not waste your time.and money moving here there is only modern slavery here

What happened to Canada is like a nightmare. We are Canadians and we left because we foresaw everything that is happening right now. Twas the saddest but probably the best decision we've ever made for our family.

I think it's great that people who don't love Canada are leaving. We don't need you. I'm working to change things, to improve my life in Canada. One improvement is to reduce the crowding. If you're just here to economically exploit the country, then I'm glad you're leaving.

Please i want to apply as an international student in Canada\n How can i do that? Someone should help me out

Out of the 450,000; 400,000 are from India. How is this “multi Culturalism” Canada is overrun by Indians and this is a serious demographic AND political risk.

Canada is not real country.

I moved to Canada 15 years ago and haven’t complaint once. I really love it here but if you make less than 80 000 I would probably regret as its expensive to live for the ones that make less. Unfortunately it’s difficult for an immigrant to make that amount of money. I would for sure go back to my country ☺️

this is nothing for Canada.. you are clown just wait little time , you will see the jesus!!!

Let them continue, time will come when their police will no longer contain a little riot in this country.\n\nIn the next 5 years Canada will become a sharia country. It will happen in their eyes. Watch out and see.

Thanks for this great video. The present government has changed Canada so much in the last 8 years. We really need change. Great content!! Watched the whole video.

These videos are SO funny. All those youtubers who whine like children about living in Canada are still there. Baby cryers. Canada is NOT a prison. It is not like the former Soviet Union that people were not allowed to leave or North Korea now. If you don't like what you have , then move to another country. Plain and simple and stop whining.

Good, maybe Canada will be better off without you.

Why the immigrants dont leave the United States or Australia? Why Canada? Can anyone say? Other reasons exsists except those said in this video.

Canada for the bears not human...LOL

Here..I left Canada already. ?‍♂️ for the exactly same reasons she mentioned.

Canada is not a great choice to come to obviously. Canadians can’t even afford to live here.

No Canadian dream in Canada anymore thanks to our prime minister

People must see Canada as a developing country which need immigration to develop it. Canada is not a fully developed country.
