Come to California the weather is pretty close to Middle East !!

All Muslims just get out of Christian majority countries and live happily in Middle East Arab countries.

Basically you're arguing against multiculturalism, just without realising it or at least not expressing it that way.\n\nAnd although im a traditional liberal left winger, I've come to agree actually, I would hate for Canada, which is a largely secular country built upon judeo Christian beliefs end up something else entirely just to appease one particular religious group.\n\nI lived in the middle east for almost 6 years and it was a fascinating experience as well as rewarding from a career and financial perspective.\n\nOf course I had to comply with local cultural norms, which I absolutely did as I'm a respectful person but had I not done so I would have been shown the door / the inside of a prison cell. If I started complaining that Islam was homophobic or arguing about the hijab that would not have gone well for me.\n\nI think in the West we need to start being much more explicit about our values - such as freedom of speech - and not lose them down to a woke fear of offending minority groups.

how about you moving to the middle east?

Welcome to Middle East, I wish you all best and hope I can do any support

This is actually a cop out for an answer. it is the responsibility of neighbouring states to take in refugees during times of crisis. Even far poorer nations such as Kenya have hosted refugees from neighbouring countries such as Somalia. If anything this answer just highlights both Saudi and wider Arab hypocrisy when dealing with refugee crises in their backyards. Also yes I totally understand why this question was asked as often a lot of European states have taken in refugees from middle eastern countries whilst the neighbouring gulf states have taken none.

Hope all muslin follow through and move to Middle East instead of creating frictions in Europe and South and North America. Only Muslims I feel are friends of humanity are the Sufism that focus on the universal love of God and not in dogma and differences or hate.

Hope you get your home in an Islamic country in the middle east. I really do not like the mixing of different cultures and more when Islamic people are so fundamentalist in their belief and lack tolerance to other people freedom. Hope all Islamic people live Happy in the Middle East instead of Europe or the Americas.

You seem like a very pleasant couple who may be making the right decision to move to a country where you feel more comfortable. The Middle East is an obvious choice and I hope you are very happy wherever you settle. Canada will be the poorer without you. Your use of (is it Arabic?) other language phrases leaves one wondering what you are saying... You speak of hate crimes against Muslims, which is obviously despicable, yet there seem to be many such crimes perpetrated by people of your Faith against others who are not believers in Islam - the massacre of Christians in Nigeria is one example. I am sure you find such atrocities abhorrent and it would have been reassuring to hear you mention such instances. Regards from Blighty :).

Please, Please, Please, do not come to New Zealand....Middle East would be more conducive to your mindset!

Rest assured, nobody from a normal place would ever move there; from the middle of Africa, I don't know... I do believe that not even Latin Americans are attracted due to different weather habits... All in all people deserve what they vote for; it's their will, isn't it?

Imagine going to Asia and trying to find an American hotspot to live. Go to the Middle East. Ooooh wait, that will be too harsh.

That reporter question is just too “stupid” who hires these people who are not politically correct - “Arab world” do you know how offensive that is the Middle East is intertwined with many countries most of which don’t speak Arabic to make such assertion that the “Arab world” needs to take refugees is ? asinine

The West should cut all foreign aid to any Middle Eastern country.

Let me sum it up real fast. Decades of wrong policies to turn the averaged middle class person into a slave while the oligopolistic companies and the government take over.

Im a syrian , my country originaly is one of the best places which you can enjoy literally 4 seasons , mild winter and mild summer compared to other countries in the middle east , sytia also has a lot of natural and archaeological sites to whom is interested ..however two major factors are making me think of moving to another country -mainly are the wars inforced on syria to capture the rich mineral sources we have .\n-the inflation caused by the war , made it uncomfortable struggling to keep a least standard of living which becoming impossible to retain .\nTherefore , im also thinking of hijra ,hopefully to a country where ill feel safe and confortable to retire there..\nTop country id like to live in is malaysia , but im not sure how are the laws regarding foreigners getting residency etc..\nMay Allah help you and family , me and family getting the best as HE almighty knows what n where ..

Not everyone. Some of us are stuck with 30 year mortgages and kids middle school.

Go back Pakistan or Middle east. Dubai is best.

Good for you. ❤❤❤❤❤. Yes your children would be children free and safe. Any where in middle east. Move and dont even look back.

Canada is now a country for that's good poor economic migrants coming from poor countries or war torn countries... People living in middle income countries are actually better off with a lower income than in Canada where you will struggle even with a higher income.

And that’s the difference with civilized Europe. There’s a war in Ukraine and all countries unite to help them, despite cultural differences. When there’s a war in the Middle East… all leaders start pointing fingers without doing anything, over and over again. Look at Yemen and Syria. How many people got a new home in the Gulf?

How bloody well DARE they! Arrest them, revoke their citizenship and DEPORT THEM! The UK, every town, village and city, every RIGHTFUL citizen has the sovereign right to move freely in their own country!!! Middle eastern countries wouldn't tolerate interference of this nature, WHY SHOULD BRITS??? Implode their damnable mosques, rid UK of the pox of islam. If immigrants REFUSE to integrate, THEY DON'T BELONG THERE!!!

please pack your bags asap....Malasya...Saudi ..Middle East would be perfect for u

Praise allah!!!! May Allah guide all his Muslim followers out of the West and send them back to the Middle East inshallah

Definitely stay in the Middle East

Hope you’re moving home to the Middle East! ?

There is no middle class anymore and no way to get out of debt \nRents are high and companies hiring are for the most part only hiring part time \nPeople are forced to have two jobs just to get by \nUnions are gone and the chances for promotion are slim \nJust hoping to get full time is a dream \nAnd after ten years of working two jobs and high rents your as broke as when you came

The best way to say. None of the middle east is taking none of them ?

The healthcare sucks.\nIt ruined my life.\n\nWhen I was 16 I was diagnosed with very minimal scoliosis and told I need a back brace.\nThey never got me a specialist to get me a back brace.\nThey made we wait 2 years until I was 18 then told me I wasn’t allowed on the same waiting list anymore because I was an adult now.\nNow I am 19 soon turning 20 and they have done nothing to help with my Spine which has now progressed horribly.\nI have a middle bend which is 52* and a lower bend of 30*.\nI can no longer lift anything and am now waiting for spinal surgery.\n\nNone of this would have happened to me if they had only gave me a back brace when I was 16.

This is why you let the Middle East countries give solutions, not the west on how to fix the Middle East…

What are you expecting?\nThis video is Hypocrisy When you go to a western country you have to assimilate with western culture.\nYou have to learn to live with church bells ringing not Azan!\nGreat you are leaving!\nYour parents were lucky they were given residency in the West then all of you used the social benefits \nBoth of you i believe hold Canada passpots ,that is a n Asset already!\n\nThere is no visible target in the west,it is exaggerated!\nMy families in Canada are free to practice their religion wear their ethenic clothes which they do all the time.\n\n\nEvery middle eastern ,pakistan i have met ,his primary goal is to be US SWEDEN ITALY NORWAY.\nWhst Genocide?\nWhat did Abbas do to fellow muslims he gassed childern women babies\nWhat about Sudan it is Genocide.\n\nMy thoughts are you should go to Middle east help Gazans,Syria ,Sudanese\nThen back to your home country Pakistan.\nYour neighbour India is another very good option to live.\nPlease give up your Canada residency if you stand by what you believe!

I hope it worked out for you man… as a Canadian, I can say that as much as Canadians love to pretend like we’re super open and welcoming, that’s largely not the case. I’ve witnessed some really disgusting treatment of immigrants first hand, and I have a lot of friends/ coworkers who are immigrants from Latin America and the Middle East, and I’ve heard a lot from them about the micro aggressions that they get from Canadians everyday, the dirty looks they get when speaking their native languages in public, and the immense pressure to assimilate. What you were saying about feeling like you’re always reminded that you’re an outsider in Australia, I also hear that a lot from immigrants here in Canada… I hope that Canada can be a better place for you, and you can feel more at home here, but the u fortunate truth is that the idea that Canadians just welcome immigrants with open arms and that everyone is welcome here is largely a myth… a lot of Canadians unfortunately are just xenophobic, racist, nationalistic dickheads and they’re not shy about it

Every country in the western world has the same problems. Where are you going to run to ? It is the same. I am from London and am a white, 44 y old male. If you go to a warm Middle Eastern country like Dubai, you just get a different set of problems,

Please reply if you think i am wrong \nYou are coming to abroad for struggle not for living in private room \nIf you are not a hard worker then be a lady and sit on the kitchen\nThese students just get fraud\nUnpaying is not the problem\nLoneliness is nothing \nIf you can't live 3 to 4 year lonely before PR then brother home kitchen is for you\nSuicide are from coward people \nIf you are coward Don't come to canada\nIf you Don't make plan yourselv than it’s your problem\nYou choose the wrong consultant \nIt's your fault\nYou have to know and have a list for your goal, pR,your study field \nDon't discourage the brave student who can work hard and study and get pR in 4 year\n4 year of struggle give the best life you want \nDon't think in the canadian perspective there are 1st world country\nThink from 3rd world county \nThink from our middle class perspective \nThese people are canadian not indian or Pakistani or Bangladeshi or Philippines

The problem with healthcare in Canada is middle management.\n\nThere are like 3 managers for every doctor, 2 for every nurse.\n\nThen there is regular administration.\n\nCouple that with the public sector unions that represent ALL of them, and the system becomes geared to making itself bigger, and less efficient.\n\nWhether the public sector unions want to admit it or not, they have literally destroyed healthcare in this country.\n\nIt's all about the people that work in the industry now, and nothing to do with the patient, and THAT is the problem.\n\nIt's gotten even worse since Covid, now EVERYONE that works at a hospital is a ROCK STAR, so you can't say no to any of their demands anymore, or you're a monster that doesn't care about 'front line workers.'\n\nCanada has become a punchline.

Go to the Middle East, there's much salamaleking to do there

This is Canada. Not the middle East. Show some respect.

people wanna escape from the middle east and you guys wanna come here lmao.

I think you both are suitable to stay in the Middle East..nearer to holy city of Mecca

Consider moving to Kosovo-it is a majority Muslim population that is western oriented but also traditional in a cultural sense (not necessarily a religious sense). Although it is majority Muslim, there are secular Muslims as well as Catholics and Orthodox Christians who live in peace. You can hear the call to prayer five times a day and see observant Muslims without it being all consuming like somewhere in the Middle East. Since you are from Canada, you might find it a little suffocating to move to some place like Saudi Arabia, even if you are observant Muslims. Finally Kosovo has a very cheap cost of living, many people speak English, and you can be on the beaches of Greece within a few hours drive. Probably not on your radar so just a thought.

There will be no solution for the Middle East and the world until Jesus/Yeshua/Issa descends and places his feet on the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem at His second coming. No matter where we go strife and fear will be with all of us and it will likely just get much worse in the coming years.

very nice couple... so well assimilated.... perfect english... and practically finishing each others thoughts.... I don't necessarily agree with their conservative politics... but their last stated reason which is the number one reason... is understood by me as an offense even something more basic than anything religious, it is pre-religous and core to any empathetic golden rule of humanity, it is a complete human rights violation... and I am afraid that at the international level no government can be formed unless moderates from conservatives and non-conservatives, can compromise on basic issues... but the core issues including the current human rights issue and current indictment of genocide, has no compromise.... how can we compromise on genocide? Not possible. Israel left no room for compromise. We are on the brink of a regional war in the middle-east... and Canada doesn't recognize Palestine because it is a Zionist government. Islam has a low standing in pro-Zionists countries. Why is that? We need to investigate. Ultimately we need international law governance to protect against genocide and ethnic cleansing, and illegal use of weapons of mass destruction. And we needed this after WW2, but we still don't have it. There is no world government, just allies, and axis powers, and shadow governments.

I live in USA and it's the same here the cost of living is true the roof, it's a world wide thing, the income of most people is barely enough to live, the middle class is getting trampled, why? Why this phenomenon is taking place? in the 60' people could work and buy a house, good luck now in Los Angles area, I know I can't. What changed 1960 and now?

let the rich of the world buy out the working and middle classes of the West\nso that we can be truly free.

I recommend the Middle East

The comments are all delusional, I'm not saying we let them in but at the very least we need to recognize that we did this to them by interfering with their government.... it's the middle east all over again, just for different reasons.

Masha'Allah, I enjoyed your video. As around 8-10 years ago, I embarked on a similar journey, leaving North America for the Middle East, Far East, and South East Asia in search of a country with Islamic values and environment. However, I eventually returned back due to witnessing too much hypocrisy and lawlessness in those places. Unfortunately, there isn't a single country in the world that can be considered a true Islamic country. If you've found something that fits the criteria, please feel free to share. Honestly, I can't claim it's 100%, but during Dr. Mahathir's time, Malaysia seemed around 60-70%. The main challenge was the language; learning Malay is essential to fit in better. English is widely spoken and understood, but proficiency in Malay enhances the experience. As for Turkey, UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan, they fall short at the 20-30% level. May Allah SWT bless you, your family, and guide you to find the best fit that meets your religious needs.

F*d up govt who brings muslims, indians, and pakistanis. They are taking over the canadian mix and making it another india, pakistan, or middle east. Canada is not European culture anymoren like it used to be

Why should the Arab world take the blame for not taking care of the Palestinian, whose fault is that if not the western world who took the part of destroying them by supporting the Israel. Most of the Middle East countries had been demolished because of the interference. It’s seemed okay if some of that the refugees fled to the West
