but to be honest guys, Muslim countries do the same or worse to non Muslims. In Saudi, every woman has to wear a hijab regardless of their religion. In my view Muslims seems a bit slefish and intolerant in that they want to be accommodated in other societies but non Muslim societies are not very accommodating. Says someone who stayed in a Muslim country. We were not allowed to have church meetings on campus.

I hope you find a better place because there are the same problems around the world. The United States have normalize a lot of what you are talking about. Hate is growing, greed is growing. I'm almost 70, born in Toronto, I've only traveled to Quebec a few times, no other provinces. I have flown 4 times in my life, once to Thunder Bay, once to Chicago, and two times to the Philippines. I wouldn't live anywhere else in the world. I have worked over 40 years in average jobs but I made it. I respect everyone's religion but don't push it on me, I'm not religious in anyway. Religion belongs in a believer's home or religious establishment. All I can say is good luck, life is what you make it.

I had an opportunity for work for Aramco in Saudi Arabia about ten years ago and I was offered about $200K without tax. The thought of my wife and three girls wearing the outer islamic garment (abaya?) was a complete no go for my family and decided to turn down the offer. Every country is not for everyone. I hope Saleh family can find a place where they can practice their religion peacefully. Even though Islamic values are more aligned with conservative party principles, I don't understand why would muslim community wholeheartedly support liberals and their degenerate principles.

Word of caution, in regards to climate , too hot is worse than too cold.....if you end up somewhere without air-conditioning , it is going to be much worse then having access to heating in winter.....been there , so I know :) Another comment, try to separate religion from politics,. If you were born in Canada, you might not be fully aware of the difference between democratic and non-democratic societies. Religion only is not enough to make you happy, and having two girls and willing to risk their rights, require at least a conversation with someone that knows more about it. I have my own experiences and it seems to me that you idealize societies in which these rights are non-existent . You are right, Canada has become a very different country than it was when I first got here, but is still far cry from where you are planning to go. Beware of things that people are not saying , and have your due diligence done for the sake of your children.

Wow such a peaceful religion ?

Why would someone convert to such an obviously false and wicked religion?

I was born in Canada. I am now in Thailand. I worked 35 years for a large transportation organization. I am retired and loving living abroad. It is cold in Canada 6 months of the year. Climate change is creating massive forest wildfires every summer now creating horrid air quality issues especially in the west, which is the mist beautiful part of the country in my opinion. I traveled back for a couple of weeks in October 2023 and was in shock over the cost of everything especially considering the recent inflation problem affecting the entire world. I couldn't wait to het back to my life in Thailand. Here there is no racism that I can see. All races and religions are accepted here. I hardly ever wear pants, shorts and short sleeve shirts. I can golf 12 months a year and live very comfortably on my pension. I could not have the same quality of life in my home country and the medical industry makes care here very affordable and accessible. In B.C. I found it extremely difficult to find s family doctor after moving there even to get a comprehensive medical checkup. I love my country of origin but will never return as long as I have the choice. Canada is over taxed, over regulated and very expensive now. These are the facts that created my choice to emigrate.

I have family in Canada, and there are pros & cons of being there, and yes, weather & inflation are two important factors. There are Muslim communities in Canada, but it all depends where you’re at. I do understand the prevalent anti Muslim attitude/atmosphere, I live in the US and there are certain areas where I would not feel safe declaring my religion and having my wife & daughter wearing hijab, it’s sad, but we as Muslims in North America have to act as the pioneers and make our fellow Americans understand better our religion & our view points regarding the political & religious differences we have.

All there loyalty is in there religion, they have none for any country they settle in

Bye Felicia. You complain of discrimination against muslims and then in the same breath, shun another minority because your culture/religion says so. Just because it's part of your culture or religion, doesn't make it any less vile. The hypocrisy is disgusting. Let the door hit ya in the arse ya bigots.?

I fully understand your decision and reasons for moving away from Canada. \nHowever, you could have expressed your choices and opinions on a forum meant for Muslims, who can benefit from it, or ask you questions. \nBy putting it in this platform and insulting the people of this country is very irresponsible. Or was that your intention! \nI as a Muslim am not given the right to demean any culture or religion. \nYou are so young right now. You may realize as you grow and learn that tolerance and acceptance of others as they are will bring you a lot of peace.

Good decision. I'm an South Asian myself and while most of the people dream to move to the West, I have absolutely no interest moving there for the unsuitable cold weather, crime rate, less liberty to practice religion in practical terms inspite of all the 'we are democratic' rhetoric and living in a deceptive cocoon

You seem like such awesome people, but I really can't align with your religion or any other religion. Canada is a secular country. Religion is a secondary private matter, up to you. I don't agree with religion, but I'm not free to restrict it.

Let's keep Canada a secular country! \nMuslims are doing their best to change Canada into an Islamic caliphate praying in the middle of busy streets blocking traffic so people can't get to long waited for doctor's appointments or business appointments. Muslims want the call to prayer five times a day to stop everything for everyone not only muslims. If it is a muslim holiday they expect the whole country to take the holiday and that all businesses must close because of their religion. The most logical thing for moslems to do is move to a moslem country that follows their moslem precepts and leave Canada so we can remain a free country not tethered to religion unless we choose that mode of living.

Wow she changed this guy who used to look normal ..\nI think every Muslim should move to Muslim countries.. democratic countries not for them ? copy paste religion ?ex Muslims are much aware of Makki aytein and Madni aytein .. they both are talking about the how discriminating they are facing living in Canada .. but what about the “Book”teaches discrimination against Kafi**

Muslims always emigrate to non Muslim countries WHY. Why not emigrate to Muslim country where you have your own religion and culture. Cost of living is up world wide running out of control here in my country. Please don't come to Australia to many people here now. No work, no housing, people living in tents in cities, high cost of power, petrol, food, everyone is struggling except the rich and powerful, and politicians

As an antitheist, may I suggest you abandon religion, an archaic and superstitious fantasy delusion that most often does more harm than good in the world, and stay in Canada and work to help remedy the ills of the country. Religious people aften profess that religion makes people moral, yet you are clearly bigoted against LGBTQ people, and don't want to make sacrifices to help people in need (ie, all the destitute people in Canada that you want to flee from). It doesn't seem to me that religion is helping you to be better people. If you prefer to keep your religion, then I agree that leaving is best. We don't need more religious fanatics in the West- we already have too many of our own.

As a Christian from India, I wish you all the very best. The two places you could consider are Dubai UAE and Malaysia. You have economic prospects and you could feel happy following your religion.

Sir , check out Malaysia, KL is a great country and Muslim friendly of course, but also a tolerant society . Check out the Philippines. I live there part time . On the SW corner of Mindanao (Zamboanga ) great town and 1/2 Muslim) people get along fine there usually. I live up in north Luzon - mostly Christian but Muslims are around too . No hassle and respectful. I don’t know your financial situation, however, in the Philippines, the school system is quite good, and private schools are stunningly excellent. I would definitely check out the Philippines and also Malaysia. Both have a great style of life and it doesn’t cost a fortune to live well. Education is quite good and the medical situation is also quite good. In the Philippines, however you have to select the hospital before you become ill in the Philippines, there is the public hospitals, which is fine for minor, scrapes and cut, but I would recommend a major hospital for anything serious. In Malaysia, the standard of medical care is good throughout the country. You could also consider northern Thailand. Southern Thailand is too much into tourism, but northern Thailand has a good mixture of people and religions. Mainly a Buddhist country, but very tolerant towards Christians, Hindus, and Muslims. May God bless your journey through life. Honor, peace and honour your friends and family. I wish you well.

I don’t begin to understand your issues around your religion, but I respect your decision … being an Alpha white man, and a Christian has become very very difficult in this society as well. sure, the economy is soft, the growth of Canada is limited, we have a socialistic government, and many more negatives around Canada. This is why I have chosen to live in Canada only 5 to 6 months a year. This is the maximum I can truly stand. the culture is so materialistic and so pro woke. It is a nasty environment to bring up a family now. Anyway, may God go with you and keep your family safe.

People who have grown up in Christian majority Western countries are absolutely supportive of Muslims moving to Muslim majority theocratic countries, and staying there. Of course I wouldn't dream of moving to a theocratic Muslim country and try to change it to my preference. So why should Muslims move to these Western countries that protect minorities and enshrine religious freedoms into their law and try to change it all to their preference? Which looking at those theocratic countries involves removal of those protections and state sponsored persecution of other religions and minorities. Best parting ways. Good luck.

Personally i wish all of you would leave. Your religion and culture are not needed or wanted here. Best of luck to you and your families ??

Go to Florida if you think life is expensive in Canada. You will get the surprise of a life time. Good luck! You would like as well Dubai. As a Canadian, I know that Christians do not show on the street their religion. We have a tendency to keep our religion to ourselves. It is a different culture. Good luck to you guys.

Am so bless to be a muslim who live very easy in the west with my faith and no body in the west disstop me in any matter of my religion,lakum dinni kum wal ya din

I agree that Muslims should live in Muslim countries. They are free to practice their religion without any prejudice! Many more should do the same. Let us know how you get on. Good Luck!

Glad you see the difference in living in a non Muslim Countries , you make the most sense I’ve watched about different religions ,I wish you a good life where ever you end up. Thank you

Very good idea, it's a win win situation. You'd do far better in a society that expresses your religion openly. Trying to Islamify Western civilizations isn't going to work.

You must obey the law of the land. Not the law of your religion.

Canada is not a Muslim country. Don’t try to force your religion on others.

I don't know why we hate WEST when once we are done with all of our needs. Some of us dislike them, but in our prayers, we beg to God for grant of Canadian or American or British Visa. Moreover, on the contrast, we defy some of their policies. Of course, we aren't living in Islamic country. We're living in Canada. Everything is not same everywhere in every country. When we talk about negative points of CANADA, there must be positive points too. May Allah ease all human beings of all respected religions on this earth.

I understand what your saying but CANADA is a still peaceful country. Just follow your religion and teach your children what you believe and value. Kids run around freely just move to a better neighborhood or city .

I am a Canadian and I don’t want to see my grandchildren that dry queen shows but also if you’re unhappy here in Canada, because your religion is not widespread all through our country, then yes by all means pack up and leave we are not going to change our culture for you

All fine and good.\nBut why as a man do you have to dress up like a terrorist, supporting all stereotypes?\n\nMuslim men sometimes confuse culture and religion. Completely counterproductive.

Absolutely, I agree with the Transgender issues and I agree with the needles on the ground and homelessness. Our Gov has slacked off in a lot of ways. I was thinking the same thing to run back to my parents country in the South Pacific. One thing I have to say “Religion”was created to segregate mankind we are all a highly evolved Human race. It’s an illusion, to not being able to find the truth in one’s self. We all can practice our faith or connection to God. We can openly pray anywhere. A simple thought of God and bowing down your head joining your hands thanking being grateful is all you need. Remember we were taught all these things from others with highly motivated personal agendas. WE WERE NOT BORN WITH A RELIGION WE WERE BORN AS A HUMAN FIRST. That is the language of God not all these segments of religion.!!!!

its glad to see that you care about your religion as newly revert muslims..

Allah have promise whoever doing hijrah, Allah will take care of them. You Hijrah for the sake of religion, there nothing can beat that.

Those countries you mentioned have Azan and use symbolic ways while they literal slaves from India. A country like Canada might not symbolically showcase holiness, but in practice, at least they don't take your passport away and take you hostage. I think action speaks louder than pretension. I think this religion thing has very negative impacts especially as each group both Christians, Muslims, and Jews believe they are the chosen people and the ticket to better life is sold thru their citizenship of hevean program. Perspective really helps.

Sharia. Law does that mean the men have to wear dresses over their trousers and grow a beard around the face not actually on the chin and bow down to false god 3 times a day. And worship a peadophile named Mohammed. Good luck with that. Why force a religion on someone. Only a certain type of Shitlicker. Does that. Goons

Why do non Muslims need to hear the call to prayer for a religion we don’t want

I am giving you a some kind of respect that, if you do not like the country where you are in, then you simply leave it. You do not make any pro-Islam protests walking with a beard and threatening all the world. That’s nice. All the best. \n\nCanada should not have by default any other cultures / religion environment, as this is absolutely different world. \n\nSo all the best and maybe Muslims can find a peace and great life’s in the Muslim countries ? would be weird me being European, go live to any other cultural country and try to change it to be Europe. I doubt it would work this way, so why some muslims expect that it should work way around.?

Countries shouldn't have a religion

Really cool video, however when you move warmer but live in a western country. Gaza needs humanitarian and people to build Muslims who can communicate with Abrahamic religions, Christians, Jews, and non religious people.

The fact that you appear to think that society should cater to muslims with provision for daily prayers, that you seem to want, though impractical, the call to prayer in cities. does not fit with societies that are not, and should never be, pandering to a foreign incompatible religion.

Come to Pakistan ?? it’s the most beautiful and most peaceful and most Islamic and most economical country in the world and the beautiful thing is that it has all the 4 seasons,You are most welcome ? to come to Pakistan and practice Islam freely and enjoy the lovely beautiful Islamic country.Exactly truth and perfectly agree with you guys awesome video love ❤️ your views and ideas very nice ?.Islam is the best religion and we should all follow it it’s perfect.We support your beautiful video.?❤?❤?❤.love to see you guys in Pakistan ?? Alhamdullilah.

all religion was invented by insecure men to subjugate women. that aside, you guys seem lovely and hope all the best for you. bring tolerance and inspiration to wherever you go.

Move to Gaza I hear the government is great there. Probably aligns closer with your values and religion anyways. Canada doesn't need anymore ungrateful entitled people anyways we have maxed out on that.

im cool with muslims but religion is for the low info people. No one want to hear splurting out of speakers 5x a day. Free Palestine!

should be in a country having the same religion as you do.

I am a South African and today more than ever, I can say I am a proud South African. \nIt is not always all sunshine and roses. ? Well, actually it is sunshine. At least 300 days of the year.\nI don't live in an Islamic state but in my country we make provision for all religions and cultures. \n1.7% of the population is made up of people of islamic religion. That is more than 1million muslims living here. 78% are Christians. We have Mosques, halaal food in nearly every city and Islamic schools in certain areas where there is a higher populations of muslims.\n\nFor the muslims who prefer to attend a normal school, provision is made for islamic cultural and religious events within these schools.\n We hear the Athaan 5 times a day. In fact we hear it so often that we dont hear it anymore. It has become part of who we are as a nation. We hear the church bells ring. This reminds us of who we are. I live opposite a Jewish cemetery that has a synagogue. With religious events we cant get out of our drive ways because of the congestion if traffic due to this. But we still respect and understand. \nWe have a very diverse culture and most of us respect the diverse cultures.\nI live in Cape Town and would not want to live anywhere else. \nGood luck with your journey and follow your heart.

Also (though i'm Christian not Muslim) i get the whole not having access to your faith environment too. Canada is a super secular country and people who take...well just about any serious religion seriously feel that way. Even with visibility and feeling safe...remember when Churches were being burnt a few years ago? I was legitimately afraid some of the Churches in my area would be subject to arson and i often feel like I have to keep my faith secret. again...i'm not Muslim...i'm Christian and yeah, I feel this way.
