Am iraqian\nI feavert live in Canada\nBecause in Iraq have war and terrorism and problems of security.\nIraq man now. Capital to killing and terrorism.

Am I the only person in this comment section who actually enjoys living in Canada? ? ? ?

Canada is a beautiful place to live. But it's hard to find a job. If you don't know anyone in high places there is no promotions and it depends on your culture. I would suggest to make a life in Canada and go back to your country of birth. It's hard for housing and to own a home in Canada...Government need to do more regarding housing for low income families and single parents...

Amazing explanations! Some travel agencies sell the idea about how wonderful Canada is and they make sense people can go to Canada, get a job, and get a lot of money. And everything is wonderful as a fairy tale! That's an illusion. Of course, Canada is an amazing country, but in each country, we need to understand the language, society, and culture. A major of people are not prepared to study these conditions. When I tell around a society that involves understanding the Canadian economy, how to prepare professionally you are, the climate and conditions to live there (in Canada). The people need to try do not to fall into the conversation of exchange courses and travel agencies that sell illusions, especially of agencies that work on Youtube to sell their travel packages.

I am an immigrant from Korea. I have a decent life here but i find that it is getting harder especially with housing price and cost of living. I am thinking about going back but Korea is as expensive as Canada. However, I found that Korea’s health care system is much faster and more advanced. I like the nature here in Canada a lot more though.

Canada is a country of immigrants, which means people who are, in my humble opinion, mostly quite self-centered and expecting the world from others, which never happens! Canada demands a gigantic capacity to adapt, to adjust and, in a word, to change...completely! You must be totally willing to leave everything behind if you want to integrate into Canadian society and this is extremely hard to do! Moreover, most immigrants come to Canada because they expect that country to give them a life of luxury or at least a very easy life, which can be true, as compared to certain other countries where life can be hell because of corruption, poverty or mismanagement and dictatorship. Now, don't fool yourself, you will find all of this in Canada too, in a very different way, although not always that different, but you will find it to a certain extent, depending on what you are trying to do here! Canada pretends to be a free and democratic country, but if there is one thing, that you are not supposed to do in Canada without dire consequences and reactions from most Canadians, it is criticism and voicing dissent! You will face repression too! I am 67 and I have lived in this country for over 30 years and now have lots of health problems, which I would probably never have had in another country, all this because of the frigging climate here...I just hate it here! And yes, don't be cultured and...play stupid and ignorant, otherwise you will face automatic rejection and that same stupidity and ignorance! A country of many cultures...yes, but also of deep rooted prejudices and intolerance! And if there is something that never changes in Canada, it is change! They expect you to change, but they never change themselves! in a word...Canada is a country like all others, no better and often far worse!

IF YOU DON'T LIKE LIVING IN CANADA LEAVE!!

I have been PR and working ( oil & gas ) in Canada 50% of year for past 7 years. Buy house in Banff and pay ridiculous high tax. I am happy in Canada, but will never leave Russia. Wife and kids come to vacation in winter to ski and we enjoy this time. Probably biggest reason we would never stay in Canada is low IQ liberal government of virtue signalling imbeciles. World laugh at the western liberal and for good reason. \nGreat country, terrible government.\nI will continue working there and supporting the country with high taxes but will not permanently live there.

How dare they live in this country and try impose a barbaric law that is alien to this western country. If you don’t like it here, you can always fuk off to where these laws are used. Simple! This shit gets me so fuking mad! ????????

The number one thing is to stay clear of Quebec.\nBut then, the Quebecers don't consider themselves \npart of Canada anyway. Quebec can be best \ndescribed as a racist shithole and they have the\nracist laws to back up. Even third world immigrants\ndon't want to go to live there.

Can you tell in which\nstate/city you living In?

Great message “Live a simple life!”

Ashir, I like you, you talk well. I would add my opinion here you are still angry about Pakistan. Yes so much is wrong in Pakistan but again so much is wrong in Canada. And equally so much is right in Canada and we all know so so much is right in Pakistan. My advice, chose your wrongs and rights carefully and wisely.\nFor viewers a hint, listen to his advice and try to practice all he says while living in Pakistan. You have almost a head start of 3-5million pkr ( which generally is consumed before immigrating/settling in Canada). Life is tough every where but tough doesn't mean sad and gloomy it can be fulfilling and rewarding whether Canada etc. Or Pakistan.

Don't make people fool. I personally with my family was stopped at the road and harassed. Dissemination is at rise. I have been living in this country for 17 years and seen many cases of determination. It is not a part paradiseas you are portraying.

It is good see you again sir you are hero you live in Pakistani hart's today also love you

I saw your motivational v log yes your ideas are very near to mine i lived in UK i hv every thing mashaAllah but i donot owe anything to anybody thanks God keep up the good work live for yourself not for others.

It all depends what condition you are living in Pakistan. I like this Ashir but he has strong grudges against pakistan and has strong biased opinion. I came to canada in 2009 with family. I can tell you that those days were a little different less racism and pretty much no islamophobia now there is even if you admit it or not. If your daughter or wife does cover her head they can be in trouble out alone. Economy in atleast alberta and other provinces too is on decline. If you want to make good money medical fields are good like pharmacy nursing related rest is bad. My wife was a doctor in Pakistan cleared all her papers but didnt get any residency as of yet.

Sir love u great man and acter live alot

Pakistan is a huge country with 225 million people. Leaving a country is an individual's personal preference however there are so many people who are honest, successful and happy in Pakistan. Writing your country off is a mistake. Stay strong, keep faith and stay focussed. It pays off in the end and even if it doesn't you will be happy to live and die in your own land. Long live everyone. Stay safe.

We living around the world for me happiness not important but most important as Muslims I want and I have wish my child don't forget and don't turn his life from Islam and I think you can't control your child from independent life of Canada if you do it there will be war with your kids I Love Pakistan even I don't have home,car,facilities.

Thanks God I am privilaged Pakistani, I am not among those who have to leave country and live as a 2nd class citizen in some other country , long live Pakistan we have everything here on the top is the happiness??

You live in our heart Hero of Pakistan love you bro

how do you compare your life in Canada to your visits in US? Where should one live: Canada, UK or USA? how are these societies different for a Pakistani immigrant? Thank you

You are such a brilliant man you are my hero ? I wish I could be with you all in Canada I can do a job. I can do small kinds of things. I can do a job like I can work in a Macdonald I wish that l could come in there and do hard working I pray for you that you may live a long live.

Hi, I am currently living in Japan and searching for a IT related job in Canada. lucky me, I have found your video!! Could you kindly introduce me some recruiter agencies specialized in hiring foreign worker who wants to move to Canada?

What happened suddenly, you want them to live in good areas, is there bad areas in Canada too. Why are you not explaining them about bad areas. You are saying it's heaven on earth, is it's good and bad areas in heaven too.

Salam bhai I m living in Sydney and I saw your this video and I relied that you said everything ture it's was happening to me when I came Sydney 12 years ago. Thanks bhai

It's true, fair system CRA do not take Extra penny and do not give a extra penny incase if someone paid extra they will send you back later. Yes surviving jobs are reasonable but it's very tough it's not easy for bugging. Other thing still Pakistani people's have all the showoff how much you will get involve in community you will get in debt easilly and its very hard for a person to stay in limit as of social pressure specially for Pakistani families.About crime and theft yes people's are honest theft and steal is less than under developing countries but when you live in congested part of city crim rate and theft is still higher and it is a fact good and bad people's are every where. There is cruption found here on levels from Govt to other but little and due to fair system trials people's get caught easily. Last being a Muslim and Pakistani working lady I never found any thing happened wrong to my family and me due to my religion and culture.The community where I live they give respect to your culture and believes and people are very respectful and helping.

Sir, Being Living in Pakistan as a christian we have to face a lot of discriminations in the social society. I have faced and still facing.

He should break up the hourly wage and how much we pay taxes in canada and what's the take home. And whats the monthly bill apartment bill, grocery, cell phone, internet, car insurance and whats left behind.. living in good neighborhood means higher apartment monthly rents ... u wud have no option but to send ur wife to work. Which wid make other things complicated. Both of them come home tired and upset and life is too fast to just survive. Having the house in Toronto and neighborhood is soo exoensive and u have to keep paying till u die. \nOfcourse ppl work themselves because it's too expensive they can't afford to pay for repair. Just the house and road beauty is not enough. Happiness doesnot come cheap. U pay the price.

Salam Ashir sir, can you discuss the aspects of family values and religious/cultural differences for a Pakistani immigrant? \nLike do they have to entirely adopt Canadian/Western cultural and family values or is their a middle way bw keeping Pakistani cultural and family values and also adopting Canadian way of living?\nRegards!

I’m Canadian and I’d rather live in the us by a long shot.

10:18 haha blue skye definately.. when i video called my friends, colleages and family the first thing everyone mentioned, how blue the sky was.. Now I'm moving with family next month.. I was waiting for this video, hopefully will be helpful! thanks I lived alone in Canada for over 1 year, now moving with my spouse. This video came at right point.. Thank you sir..

Great video! Reminded me of when I immigrated to Canada 21 years ago with 8 years of back home experience, still I had to wait for 5 long years during which I went to school twice to get into my field here, and countless times thought about moving back, but once stepped into my field here those thoughts went away. Speaking of taxes, I don't read my pay stubs in much detail, I'm happy as long as I'm able to pay my bills. Canadian Healthcare system doesn't pamper too much, but it's a great blessing in serious emergencies, I and my family experienced several times getting health services worth of several thousands of dollars and ending up paying nothing, so can't complain. At the end Canada is a great country and a great place to live!

Hi Can you please let me know how to apply if I am married but my husband is unable to join with me to Canada ? Also how I can apply for him later if I alone stays in Canada with 5 year old son.\nOr you can say is it ok if my husband applies with me however lives in India.

Yeh, its just that you wont get India there.. You can live with that? Certainly we cant.. No bad blood, everyone is entitled to their opinion. Jai hind.

All lives matter ???

I'm sure the intent of this video was to be fun, buts as a Canadian I would like people to know that it's not always cold here. We have four seasons. Most of the population lives in cities that are near the border with the US and have very similar climates to the northern states below them. Please don't believe that you need to wear your toque (see what I did there) in the summer.

Local Brampton Mayors and Ontario gov never tried to put/invite some universities, hospitals and white collar jobs in Brampton, due to that Brampton became mostly bedroom community and all mix people started leaving city by seeing huge influx of South Asian population. Most people in Brampton are either truck driver, construction worker or labourer working in warehouse, while North-West part of Brampton is mostly young IT people working in Downtown or Mississuaga. I personally don’t know a single person who works in Brampton. But, still every Indian wants to live in Brampton just because of food & brown community. Now Brampton will become more brown and brown every year, just because there is no reason for other community to come and live in Brampton, no white collar jobs, not many hospitals or colleges or universty which can bring mix crowd. Brampton will be 100% south asian in next 10 years as most 50%+ new immigrants to Canada are from South Asia and every year 450000 new immigrants comes to Canada!

As a Canadian it really pisses me off to see people constantly coming here thinking that it’s gonna be a free ride and don’t even attempt to better their lives , like why did u come here? We have enough to worry about as it is !! My family came to this country as refugees and never acted so entitled

Punjabis are angels living on earth.......\nSweetest peoples you can ever met trust me.....

I would like to live in Canada

Lucky guy he dont live in my building if i see my fellow filipino like this tsk tsk tsk u gonna regret it

I've lived in both countries. There both great

What if God brought covid to the world? What if he is doing this to see if we people will unite together to end it, to see if we are still worthy of living on this planet? From the looks of it, it seems like he is not pleased with how we turned against each other
