I understand this fully as I came to Uk as a child 60 yrs ago. .. I feel the same way today. These western countries lack sense of community and neighbourhood... and spend most of their lives in loneliness thus leading to depression. 14 years ago my father passed away and I brought his body back to India .. as he loved coming and spending his retirement years back home in India.\nI miss him so much and also have started coming to india every year since his death.I’m also retired now. \nI have come to understand how people from our countries look forward to emigrate to make a better living and earn money without realising the consequences that this will have on our lives. \nThank you so much for this video.?

Hi All, I'm from India. \nAah okk fine all this we also know. There are tonnes of videos being made and already available online regarding how tough life is in the west and how depressing it is there, how weird it is there blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.....my simple questions are:\n --- how come to this day 95% of folks who leave India for abroad shores NEVER come back???\n--- how come people are standing in endless queues for getting passports, work visas and Permanent Residencies in foreign shores???\n--- what prevents Indians to come back to India and live after making tonnes of money aboard \n--- if staying in such countries is indeed SO depressing, how come immigration is only increasing every year on year (inspite of covid)???\nCan anybody provide me with the answers rooted in reality please???

Thanks for this video! I'm a biologist with experience in biotehnology and I'm looking for jobs in Montreal. I also have a master degree in chemical engeneering and I would really appreciate some specific advice! ?

Thanks man,eye opener didn’t know about all this shit in the west,yes depressing countries indeed america canada,stressful,decide to stay put in my country singapore which also similar to usa,but it is small so it is easier to socialise and get around go to malls,atm,supermarkets,schools,hospitals/clinic,movies,the masjid and travel around we use public transport so fast and convinient,still,but i must say the house in this video is ok,nice scenery but depressing and lonely as mention by you

Most people feel more comfortable living around people who are like themselves, with similar backgrounds. This is universal. This also was the way it use to be in America until a small group of white elites decided, apparently this had to change. Now people do trend to stay home and isolate themselves particularly in multicultural areas. As to this particular video, sorry l had a hard time understanding what he was saying.

It is a very insightful video about what aspects of lifestyle can be very depressing for people. Also, habits define your life. People are not the most highly social in the USA. I moved to Mexico. I missed the tropics and I missed a less planned social life. At the same time, I think the economic pressures that people live in Africa and Latin America need to be addressed. Stay home and work on improving economics for your African or Latin American nations. Trading in extended family and the love of the community for money and loneliness is not worth it. What is worth it is an effort put in to improve the finances of nations with strong communities. The best of both worlds. Excellent video from EBS scholars.

Babyboomers have raised their kids into a very protective bubble. The consequence of this is laziness and fear of everything. which also reflects on how poorly the economy is doing, since a lot of young people dont want work, are not creative, not resourceful, very dependent, addicted to food, drugs and video games. America has not changed, the people have!

Thank you so much for all your videos... Many people also want to know how to file PR application as well who got ITA ... That will be more helpful...

Nice video. But that’s absolutely not the complete picture, not at all. Most of the city has more people and houses are right next to each other. After few blocks they have open space, park for kids and play ground. Such as NY city. Go to Queens or Brooklyn or Bronx or even Manhattan. Please don’t scare people! For sure if anyone come from Africa or Asia or Latin America would never miss their country. You gonna find same food, clothes, and society here. Even better. And also you can find three jobs at a time. That’s New York. Thanks!

Hi I am also working as an HR and aspiring to grow my career as an HR in Canada. Please make a video on HR field and jobs in Canada

Me watching this video then realizing I haven't stepped out of my door since morning. LOL \nMy comfort zone is indoors.\nI guess majority of Nigerians aren't like me but this is my life here also.

I received a Job Offer from Rural road construction,Calgary ,offering me as project head,asked me to attend the job within a month,not asked any money till now,just told to apply visa,on reimbursement,free flight ticket,meals,accommodation.\nIt also sent me Lmia papers,Appointment letter,to which i also signed.still now only written interview has been done.\nAfter watching this video i came to doubt whether this job is fake or real? !!\n!!!PLEASE REPLY TO MY COMMENT!!!

I currently live in Quebec city area and have been for six years, HOWEVER, I have lived in NB and Ontario for a while and as far as Quebec being one of the best province in your video, I respectfully disagree! I hate this province so much and rather live in NB, Ontario, Alberta, BC or NS before living here. This province has horrible health care, they are also the most TAXED ppl in the country by far!! They also do not allow you to put your children in the school you want, they dictate that they must go to a french school unless you did most of your education in english, in another province yourself as a parent. Lastly, it probably ranked first because the ppl here think it's the greatest province in the world and have never left it, therefore nothing to compare it to....kind of like an american who will yell out USA is the best country in the world without even travelling outside his country to compare it to lol

Great Content! The way you explain is phenomenal. I have filled my work permit and AIPP PR forms after referring to your videos.\nYou should also include applying for PR using PR portal.

One of the dumbest videos ever. I’m an immigrant in the US (now a citizen), except for lack of jobs and weather every thing you talk about applies any where for an immigrant. I wanted to go back when I first moved to the US but fought it out with a low paying job before I ended up becoming an Executive. It’s not just Canada - for brown folks like me moving to Russia would be even worse! Also no immigrant leaves Canada in winter to vacation elsewhere in the world unless they are retired or rich. Immigrants are not bears to not work in winter and hibernate. Fun fact - it rains more in Atlanta than in Vancouver, we had 70” rain in 2020, 50”+ in 2021. You folks need to stop spreading this fake BS!

u r great sir whatever u said is realy beneficial for all who r thinking and trying to immigrate i also have decided to move from pakistan to canada ur videos are realy helpful for getting information sir kindly do mention your community app about which u have told coz i guess if i get a chance to come to canada i will need this app for help.stay blessed sir.

I enjoy your videos Adam. I'm American and considering immigrating to Canada. I've been to Vancouver a few times and also consider Nova Scotia. Would love to hear your opinion/comparison of B.C. vs Nova Scotia.

i live in quebec and totally disagree with this video .it is also probably the most corrupt province and run by a bunch of incompetent peoples around.

As an Australian, this video was interesting and informative in showing what a beautiful country Canada is, and the built environment is also so impressive. Also, I am naturally unbiased by any rivalry between provinces, particularly concerning Quebec. Oh, and I can usually discern a Canadian accent, which to my ear sounds more refined than many accents from the United States.

These same ladies have also posted a more recent video (see below) called Why Immigrants Stay In Canada - Even If They Don't Want To.\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTTcxGd5s5g

Very good video. Actually, i also have a plan to look for a job in Canada. Really don't know where to start and which city is good to work at...

And in the video itself the officer complained that her husband screamed at him. Now we should look to the other side of the story also. Kind of felt that she was being polite on purpose.

The woman just videoed the part when he brust out ...how can a sane man suddenly brust out...also give the conversation which made this official angry.may be the woman told such a thing that made him furious.

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! ?

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?

Hi!!! I'm also in the engineering area(civil engineering). Could you make a video more specific about it?

Thanks a lot for this insightful video. I have a doubt that i only have 1.5 yrs of experience till now and i have done by PGDM also, should it be the right time to apply for the PR?

I simply watched the first 3 minutes of your video and knew that right off the mark YOU ARE PERFECTLY RIGHT. Ontario alone has so many cab drivers that are foreign trained doctors that are badly needed as it has the worst healthcare system in Canada outside of the northern territories. Immigrants coming to Canada are also the best job creators in Canada and as such are much needed since the Canadian government has repeatedly failed to support its own industries and people since the 1950's. GREAT JOB LADIES.

I am Canadian, born and raised. I agree with this video. Even I left Canada because it was hard for me to find a career-type job and it's super expensive to live in Canada. Also, there are many smaller countries that don't require people to commute by car.

Fun fact Nov Scotia has a VERY small village that holds 2 world records ive been their once it's called five islands there's lots of sea food 1 record Is its the only place in the world were the tide go's far out enough to go to one of the Islands and stay the night (moose island) 2 it also has had the highest tides in the world btw please make more Minecraft videos on mango tango

Hello, can I apply for a PR while on a work permit? If yes, when would you suggest I start applying? Immediately after I receive my work permit or some months after I start working? Also, can all these steps you explained in the video be done from within Canada or will I have to leave Canada at some point, whether during application or after receiving the COPR and being asked to visit a VFS for visa stamping? Thank you.

Awesome video. Lots of information with physical go through. Thank you so much. Appreciate your help to know the process if H1B holder currently working in usa can apply for express entry program with what kinds of requirements? Also please suggest if is it beneficial to apply while on h1b in usa versus applying from india?

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

Thanks for video, my name is Moses and am from Ghana. What happen if apply for the Express entry with my spouse and later my spouse change her mind not to coming with me to Canada? Can l also apply to more than one province at ago?

Great video, and really interesting discussion in the comments. Perhaps what I can add is that I was born in Canada, have lived here for 50 years, and I've experienced the same problems as immigrants: difficult to meet people and form social ties, hard to find work because I don't have the 'right' education or qualifications not recognized, expensive and hard to establish a 'normal' life here. Imagine growing up with this, not having experienced something different elsewhere, and having no country to go back to. Canada is becoming a two-tier society, one made up of well-established families, and the other made up of Canadians who struggle and immigrants who also struggle.

I agree with everything you have said in this video. I've lived in Canada for over 10 years and must admit, i don't feel at home here at all. I feel Canada is overrated for no reason. House prices are insane, it's almost impossible to buy housing in any big city in Canada anymore. I agree with a lot ppl, the healthcare system here is poorly managed, with long waiting hours if you have an emergency (personal experience). As someone living in a big city in Ontario, it feels like everyone is just busy chasing money. Nobody has time for friends, chilling, etc...Sometimes i feel i have to book an appointment with my own friends if i want them to hang out with them. As an immigrant myself, i must say I hate the mass-immigrant policy that the government is pushing. The neighbourhood i live in, has changed face/demographics so many times... Every group sticks to their own and it feels you'll never be able to adapt as it keeps changing so fast... I also don't like how Canada is pushing their far left agenda down the throat of everyone, with being Politically Correct, promoting LGBQT to underage kids (i don't have any issue with what ppl do in their bedroom, i just have issue with the promotion of it), minority this & that (even though im considered a minority myself). If you come from a middle income country, you'd soon realise Canada ain't so much better than where you come from esp if you have education, healthcare and jobs available. I'm only waiting to win that lotto max now, so i can just return back home and live a quiet peaceful life.

Please do a top 10 best canadian cities. Also, I would love to see best australian territories/cities too! Excellent video nevertheless.

Thankyou for sharing your experiences. I am also from Europe and have both recognised; as well as observed some of these details conveyed in your videos.

Hello,ummmmm thank you both sooooo much for making this video because people need to know what the real deal is to go through with this,my name is Abraham Lincoln Ramlochan from Trinidad and I'm going to do this and I have friends who also wants this,here in trinidad we work very ,very hard and we work as a team but (3)of them is Spanish speaking little English and I'm Trinidadian speaking English little Spanish and Chinese, i would really love if you girls could help me out some way,God bless and Godspeed, you girls look very beautiful and this is very good what you're doing.

This video made by a Canadian guy about the downsides of Canada or North America as a whole.\nhttps://youtu.be/i3tFlqFsWfI\nI believe it tells some real truths about North America in general in terms of living costs, Canadian girls (many of whom are in fact very lonely and unhappy) purchasing power that keeps decreasing as well as how most girls are here!!! It really shows us how the media can influence the way we perceive the world and I am well positioned to say this as I have worked for a long Time in much poorer countries than The US or Canada and what this guys says is just so true!! There are positive aspects of living in places like Mexico or South America that you will Never ever experience in Canada or the US!\nThis is also another vid from another Canadian guy\nhttps://youtu.be/g2Vkl1TX1ho

Hi Jason,\nThanks for the video for step by step process for PR. I have a question my both kids are US citizens as they are born in US, do they need the police certificate as well, as myself and my wife needs.\nAnd for proof of funds does I need to maintain the required amount for 6months or less on or before I receive invite for ITA also does it need to be shown in single bank account, I am asking it because we will be moving to INDIA in December2021, if get it the invite in JAN2022 can show the funds in 2 accounts like some in US account and some in INDIAN account.

Canada is what you make of it. You can arrive rich and end up poor and you can arrive poor and end up rich. In between that, you can have a great life that balances your needs. I’ve seen immigrants succeed simply because they see the opportunity in front of them . They worked hard in their own counties to stay just above the poverty line ,but when they apply that same effort here it pays off ten times greater. I feel that compared to a lot of immigrants, natural born Canadians come across as spoiled and a little lazy…we are. We haven’t had to struggle the same way someone from a poorer country might have. I’ve talked to people who’ve worked ten to twelve hours a day just to stay afloat. If you did that here you could make plenty of money to live and have some left over. As far as owning a house goes,yes it’s expensive . I feel that homeownership in any country is relatively expensive. Here is a tip; use that soaring home prices to your advantage. Houses are expensive but you can make a lot of money buying and selling. I recommend putting together a buyers group and share the house for a few years, then sell at a profit, buy a bigger house or two smaller houses.try to buy the worst house in the best neighbourhood and fix it up slowly . That house could double in value in five or six years in the Toronto market. This is nothing new of course ,the people from India and China seem to do this a lot here ,it drives up prices and profits. On the downside to this ,you are now part of the problem. As the housing prices are driven up the non wealthy can no longer afford to own a house . They are at the mercy of high rents with no rewards of ownership. They are caught in a cycle of hard work and (relative)poverty. This could also be you if you can’t keep up the house payments and are forced to rent.\nHow well you speak English is important but your native language is also useful here because Canada is half immigrants . As a Canadian that speaks only english (Irish descent)I have to say to all newcomers that I’m very impressed that you have learned a new language and that you may even speak more than two! Don’t be embarrassed about your abilities . I find that in my experience , Canadians do not look down on people just because they don’t know English. In fact ,I’ve known people that have lived here for decades and still know very little English. They are comfortable in their communities and they function just fine. Learn as much English as suits your needs and be proud of any gains you make.\nOutside of Toronto are other cities that you might consider when looking at southern Ontario.From my experience,most are generally the same, just not as big . There are large immigrant communities in London Ontario, Hamilton and just outside of Toronto where housing is just a little bit less expensive but the commute to work is probably longer. This is just my opinion but in the small towns there are less people of colour , (which is what people of no colour call everyone else . I wonder if I’m called a person of no colour in some other culture ? LoL ). That might make it harder for you to feel integrated ,if that’s what you want. I’m not saying that people from other cultures can’t make it in a small town , I’m just saying that it’s definitely not Toronto . Here, people of any nationality can feel like they have a place where they can belong . It seems that no matter where you are from ,there is a community already here that’s set up restaurants and stores and clothing shops and newcomer support systems. And if your from Portugal or China or India or Africa or the Middle East, there are large groups of your kin here that have established roots for generations and you probably know this already.\nToronto means meeting place and that becomes evident quickly. I was born here and it’s one of the things I love the most about my city. I’m not going to say that there isn’t systemic racism here ,the people of no colour still kind of keep the top position , but as we become a minority in a decade or so ,I hope that will shift to a broader spectrum. It’s certainly happening already. One good thing is that the police department tries to hire people of colour so that racialism may play a smaller role. We’re getting used to seeing our politicians more and more reflect their constituents.\nI have to talk about the weather. Because I’m from here I’m used to the extremes of minus thirty and plus thirty . Eventually you get used to it (somewhat). Dressing in the right clothes is important. Summer is easy , but winter is different. It’s trying to kill you. Spend the most that you can afford on winter cloths . If you can afford a quality parka you should get one. The hood can be drawn around the face and stay out of the wind.\nIf not ,think of layers with a outer layer that blocks the wind. We have things called long Johns that are basically full length thick cotton or nylon pants that go on under your pants and a pair of extra thick socks. Buy your boots to fit your thick socks. Try to get the best boots you can afford ,it’s something that you might spend a little extra for but never regret.\nAll in all we are a fairly organized and peaceful society. Most people are friendly and will give you a chance . We have a good social safety net here and you don’t have to be homeless or starving if you don’t want to. There are people and organizations set up to help ,that truly try to get people back on their feet. It’s a good investment that pays off in ways that matter for the quality of life in a big city. I’m not putting my American neighbours down when I say they do things differently. They have their ways ,we have ours. This is just something that we do because we’re trying to learn how to help those that society has discarded or can’t find their place. Sure we have one or two areas where the homeless have pitched tents and we have some resources for them if they want. Unfortunately The mayor recently forced a small camp to move from a very visible place to more scattered locations. There were social workers involved as well as protesters trying to protect them. I didn’t like that happening and I want to see even more resources dedicated to them ,but on the other hand ,we are trying to avoid something like what happens on the streets when it’s just ignored. When I see YouTube videos of the streets of Philadelphia I’m extremely saddened. I thank the lucky stars that I was born in Toronto Canada.\nFor all it’s pollution and expense and crowds ,I think it’s a great place to do almost anything your heart desires . For every ugly building there is a beautiful park ,for every honked horn there is a birds call , for every cold and dark day there is beautiful sunny one around the corner.

Hey Jason! Thank you for your videos it's very helpful and and informative.Jason I'm Sulaiman from Afghanistan and I want to immigrate to Canada.As world knows the situation and might you also know about it so if you can help me out through this progress what should I do and what progress should I follow I will be waiting for your reply if you can help me out and should we communicate in private like for this progress thank you sir.

Bro, you are doing a great thing by educating the masses. But what is your hate against consultants ? People may not be confident enough or they might do a small mistake which can cause them their PR. Its absolutely good to educate people but speaking against a profession is not cool. Also, you are making money from YT. So, why dont you demonitize your videos ?\n\nIts a request please do not speak against any profession for your benefit. Also, please be informed that there are GOOD and BAD agents in the market. Ask the people to be careful.

Your video much more informative and am trying to job in Canada from UAE. I'm professionally a Security Officer to serve for a community here at Abu Dhabi. Can you brief a specific video on security related jobs and its requirements and Employer can also hire foreign professionals? Thanks and good luck. ?

I liked the video... It was really informative. \nI would also like to have a video on how to make a perfect resume for Canada PR

I am from india working in Dubai my dream also working in Canada but one and only your video tell reality thankyou very much

Thanks a lot Jason for this video, it was really helpful. I Wana ask if I have a low CLB can I least creat a profile and then plan to rewrite the test and update the profile. How wise is that pls,?. Then also if my ECA I obtained stated that my certificate is not equivalent to a Canadian Education, can I still apply for an Express Entry?

Thanks bro for this lovely video. This will definately help to get PR and save money from agents.\n\nCan you plz share those forums- fb or anyother which you talked in video so that we can also join and it will help also .\n\nThanks
