I'm preparing to move to Canada in future. Is it hard for a translator/interpreter to find a job in Canada? Currently i know 3 languages, which are English, French and Russian, and i'll have a linguistics degree soon. I heard that everywhere in Canada everything needs to be written both in English and French. Does it mean that translators will always have work or am i wrong? Thank you! ?

Hi, I'm a Russian furniture maker, I understand you may not understand the language! Just go like any video. Thank you.

Plz make a video on, how foreigners can migrate to Russia, get hardcore Engineering jobs like in NASA & Lockhead counterpart organization of Russia, and Assimilate n Russian society of beautiful, sensible and intelligent people\n\nWesterners like me r totally fed up of MODERN WESTERN IRRATIONAL CULTURAL & PROFESSIONAL VALUES

Girl on left is probably Russian and hence is v pretty & smart. On right is useless

Good sharing overall it's true, but i don't get it ,why Russians are afraid of cold climate, as Russia has more bad climate :)

Well as a Russian ?? boy we Russians ?? in the UK can beat you up.

I know Canada is not perfect and I find you’re a bit hard on the red maple leaf... just because you don’t find the same things as your native country. It’s like\nfrench people coming from France, going to Quebec province an complaining about the food, the weather etc... well we’re not France, sorry to say! But I can\ntry to understand your situation; it’s probably inevitable that the comparison between your country and Canada would show up eventually. I see regularly \nimmigrants moving here and it’s true that it’s not easy. (Some people will have to be cab drivers because they can’t find work in their field). But you have\nopportunities if you work hard. I have the example of a Russian truck driver who move here with his family (wife, two kids). The man started by working for\na general transport company, then was able to buy his own truck. Now he’s able to work with whoever he wants. So I think every experience is different.\nOne other thing I noticed is that for families coming here it will always be easier for kids (even teens) to adapt quicker then their parents. I live in the east\n(the maritimes) and there is not very large cities. Some immigrants that come here will stay for a while but then they would move to a larger city (like\nToronto) because that city must have the most ethnic diversity in Canada. For cultural differences true that Canadians are like Americans in the «none»\nfashion trending. It’s a different mentality then Europe because over there fashion is a statement; you are judge on your appearance. Here, not as much.\nIt shows you don’t like winter and if you don’t your not a real Canadian! :-) Don’t generalize, a lot of people here like winter. And for taxes I don’t have a clear\nexplanation other then we have a huge empty country that needs roads, infrastructures, etc. and someone has to pay for it! (fun fact, all the population\nof Canada could fit in a country like Poland... it shows how empty it is here). Finally, and I heard this many times, maybe the people or the part of the\ngovernment to blame is Immigration Canada. Maybe they give to much of an idealistic image of Canada! I truly hope that all will be fine for you here.\nDon’t forget that you can make a change to the society; if you don’t like it, you can make it better! Cheers! (Sorry for this long message)

Really? Russians go back to Putin's hell hole from Canada??? Hahaha ? wow

When you were talking of different cultures and traditions you mentioned Russians (one country ), Latinos, Asians. Europeans but no mention of Africans. \nSo are you cultural introverts?

Blonde Russian gal is super cute. And yes taxes are excessive in Canada but you'll be surprised to know that taxes in Scandinavian countries are even higher. Invest if you wanna save on taxes. I've done that in the US, UK and pretty much everywhere I've lived till date.

By the way their accent not Syrian for sure \nThey are Russian Romanian Turkish...east Europe:)

The Russian people and the Russian women are the best in the world. They are kind, giving, loving and caring.

In Russian people pay about 54% of their income as taxes

I swear, india will rise again.. Britain will pay for what it did to india...one day, one day, india, china, pakistan and all of asia will unite, god bless of russians join us too and then we will teach europe and the west, a good lesson...i swear you people are fools to think indians are subservient, that indians are weak, only we know how much venom we are capable of spewing.. God help britain.. Coz one day we will obliterate it..

How did you get all those information. Are you a Russian spy?

Did that girl know the guys are russians bruh that girl would be decapitated

I don't really understand one of experiences during my visit in Canada, I am a HongKonger and one time when I was visiting Toronto, some people with different ethnic background made a comment on my English, they said my English was good. But the fact that there are tons of Chinese/Hong Kong looking people living Toronto who speak perfect English or better than me. I really don't get this, those people who made comment are Indian, Russian, even Canadian born Chinese, they didn't even know I was just a visitor. I don't know much about the standard/definition of racism in Canada, is this incidence considered some kind of racism/stereotype? I am humbly asking for your perspectives on this.

Hi there! I'm from Russia and I study at the Russian Academy Of National Economy and Public Administration. I'll get a law education but I know that one is useless for Canadian employers and I will not be able to use it in Canada. What should I do in that case? Can I pretend to work in areas somehow adjacent to this? What do you think? I'm improving my english and I decided to pass IELTS exam after my graduation. (Now I'm 18 years old)

In Canada there will be low key racism and I have been called the world n- word many times in Toronto but only by Latino Americans, twice by a Mexican in my school, once by Peru guy then by a russian and a vietnamese. But never by a Canadian. In Toronto you will likely face more racism because it's multi cultural than any other city. But you will face racism by people who are non Canadian but more from other countries that have not accepted different races.

if it is my house I should be able to rent it to whoever I want just like if it is a job I should be able to hire whoever I want. if i only want to hire Russian people at my business than I should be able to put a sign out saying Help wanted Russians only

My mum is white has 2 bachelors and 1 masters but she cant find a job because of her Russian accent we live in Canada BTW so its not just people of color being discriminated against.

Hey I'm looking for someone from Canada who can share with me some information about this country and help me with English (my first language is Russian)

President Trump had to say:For Muslim Immigrants\n\n“IMMIGRANTS, NOT AMERICANS, MUST ADAPT.. Take It Or Leave It. I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks, we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Americans.\n\n“This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials and victories, by millions of men and women who have sought freedom.\n\n“We speak ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society, learn the language!\n\n“Most Americans believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing, political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools.\n\n“If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.\n\nWe will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with us.

deport the Russians too. They keep claiming refuge status too. Why do they get to stay....

His problem is he doesn’t speak the language. This is the biggest issue with imitation. If they can’t speak the language they need not apply. I’m almost at my end seeing almost everything in stores printed in Spanish. So wtf where’s the Chinese, French, Russian, and all the other Languages printed on everything in the stores? HMM is it because they were smart enough to learn the language before they came here?

Being a Ukrainian/Dutch/Indonesian Canadian I'm not here crying about the genocide of my relatives by the Russians or Americas/Japanese which were both much more recent than any black slavery its funny how these people's whole outlook and lifestyle revolve around something that happened hundreds of years ago when there is much more recent issues

She is a mix of Russian+German+French+Italian+British+ etc

I’m Russian I want to move to the United States of America ??

bring in the Russians,

racism has always been around...during ww2 people did this to the Polish and Germans and Russians..before that people attacked the Irish. EVERY nationality has been attacked. Sad state of humanity

The Russians did it!!!!!

asylum seekers are not illegal, if the court refused their claim and they violate a deportation only then they are illegal, Russian agents in the WH are showing lots of interest in Canada's business since the drama queen started a trade war with Canada.

FOX ENTERTAINMENT NEWS is taking Russian laundered money... Watch the pile of Federal Indictments about to drop on FOX. \nFOX WENT TO THE TROUBLE TO HIT ONE OF THE NATO COUNTRIES ( CANADA ) WITH ALOT OF ANTI CANADA POSTS..... Fu Russia backed media, You forget CANADA is one of the Allies 5 eyes... We are reading ur signals to Fox.

I have literally walked into an interview and the interviewer told me they called me because they liked my name. I am African American but I was named after a Russian figure skater. Needless to say I did not get that job. Le'siiighh

I can't stand this jerk. He is not worthy of being Prime Minister by playing Russian Roulette with Canada.

Come and get your trump sandwiches :: WHITE BREAD FULL OF BOLOGNA , RUSSIAN DRESSING AND A SMALL PICKLE . AND A SIDE OF KOOL - AID

15 years in America as an illegal. Man, I am so tired of these people who think they can break laws and move from one country to another with impunity. The question that never seems to be asked is why are these countries south of the border in such chaos? Why?\nWhy can't you find a better life in the country you were born in? Why? \nYou really need to figure out how to turn your hellholes into productive civil societies. And if you can't, tough. \n\nHere in California we've been overrun with illegals. Of course, that's no secret. However, I think the illegals and the libs here think it's a right of passage if you can speak their so-called Spanish. I say so-called because most of what I hear sounds more like Ebonics than Spanish. As a matter of fact, if you live in California and you're looking to study a second language, you should be concentrating on Mandarin, Russian, Japanese, and Korean. Those are the languages which will have real commercial use. But if you must learn Spanish, please go to Spain. That's the only place I've heard Spanish being spoken.

When I hear French or German or Russian I think what a lovely language so when I hear Spanish I cringe sorry but it's the truth

every G7 country has a great economy right now, esp the US, ditto China, but Russia's is crippled by an overdependence on oil (when oil prices halved 3 years ago, Russia was F$CKED) and G7 sanctions over the annexation of Crimea. So who wins from a trade war that stalls economic growth world-wide, including the US?\n The US NAFTA negotiator (Trump's man) states on his website that the US has a Trade SURPLUS with Canada overall, and has balanced trade with the EU, so Trump has to remove America's huge Trade Surplus in Services to even pretend current trade isn't fair, SO WHY IS HE DOING IT: THE ONLY BENEFICIARY IS PUTIN! \n PUTIN'S allies, using Russian bots to back anti-immigrant, ultra-nationalist platforms, have taken over Italy and Hungary since he took over the US presidency in '16 (most American's noticed), they almost got France, and have Canada and Germany in their sights.\n Trump announcing he wants Russia back into the G7 had ZERO backing in any branch of the US Govt, the Republican Party, or even his own Whitehouse, ditto his announcement of a Summit with Putin. British Intelligence tried to warn you, but now the fact that EVERYTHING Putin could want of a US President is the only rational that explains EVERYTHING Trump does is noticable to EVERYONE in America, except the obvious dimwits who get their News exclusively from Fox News and Trump's twitter account.

Am I suppose to feel sorry for this guy? How long did he live in the states? Then tries to move to Canada. The only English I heard from him was two words at the end. If I want to move to France I learn French. Russia, Russian. America, English. Canada, English or French. What good is he doing for either country? No sympathy from me and I'm married to a Mexican.

Canada is always choosing the worst immigrands, those who are ready to work they are deported, but who suspected to accused for terrorists crimes are re-integrated with no prison sentence. Wtf for real, canadian politician are the most lost in hole world, very disscrastfull. Trudeau think he can stand easy agains russian with a poor army, Putin thinks Trudeau and canda are what so called cheese-land.

Can you show the professor to Belgium please. I prefer a Canadian over an American or a German because our racism exceeds all borders. On a daily basis I experience black racism on an unheard scale. People come to me and explain they feel totally excluded from our society even when they contribute to it by (mostly manual) hard labor and social or political engagement. Maybe a Canadian profile could get some acceptance in Belgium. Same thing goes for Hindi, Asian and Muslim people. I cannot contribute more than launching a very urgent and serious appeal because I am not qualified in my society. Thank you very much to clean up our mess. I heard we have a caucasian Russian in the Euro Parliament but I did not check that.

poor u Europeans Americans Russians Australians Canadians all racist you need to loot

I see the Russian trolls are out in force. Thanks comrades.

Here's my suggestion to Great Britain. Give Putin a call and ask him to send a few hundred Russian soldiers to put things straight. There will be no conversation, just immediate action and results. You can't count on the queen's boys.

What's the difference between Canada's leftist state run propaganda and Russian state run propaganda?\nIn Canada, when there are too many dissenting opinions, the comment section is more disabled than Stephen Hawking.\n#DefundTheCBC\n#SellTheCBC

I invite you to Russia will have the patrol that the Russian Islamic year after recall
