In Muslim countries the government pushes the parent and pushes individuals honestly to adhere to Muslim law or else live as a second class citizen so I guess this is the same in every country It's just a matter of differences and values that each country holds.

with all time low housing supply in Canada....guess some lucky family is gonna luck into a vacancy when you leave. Life always has an upside.

I have to ask are you giving up your Canadian citizenship? And I have to tell you I bet you are going to keep it. And although I agree with some things eg: the extreme stance and slide into extreme liberalism, your move is one extreme to the other, and despite the cancel culture here it still stands for real freedom when compared to the middle east. So please do us a favor and if war breaks out where you are going to, please do not ask the Canadian people and government (like so many islamic homesick have in the past) to rescue you at the monetary expense and potential risk to our Canadian men and womens lives- that would be so insulting not to mention hypocritical and Canadians take note of such things and they don't forget. Having said that have a good trip or I guess I should say permanent move.

Guess EU should have said the same about the immigration from the middle east ?

Sad! To take Palestinians as refugees is to help the Israeli genocide efforts. It's tantamount to helping the Israeli's removing Our Palestinians from what's rightfully theirs. I guess for the sad Countries that watch the destruction of Palestinian infrastructure and the lives of Our Brothers and Sisters its easy for them despite having a Military not to do anything in the wake of The Present Catastrophic events for Palestine. Sad! May ALLAH remove you Mutard leaders from power. Aameen.

Good for you guys. I wish you all the best. Hope you find yourself a home where you can be who you are. I guess winter is not for everybody. Being Russian - I really missed winter living in Australia. One of the reasons I've returned Home))) Other reasons that you guys named to leave Canada - I'd list the same for myself and my family for leaving Australia. Except for I'm not Muslim, I'm Orthodox Christian. But there are many Muslims around me here - Russia is a very diverse country.

U should go to saudi Arabia. But I guess they won't be so welcoming

Big cities in Canada actually aren't higher in crime. The worst crime is probably western small towns. But even really nice cities like Fredericton NB have far higher crime than Toronto does. This may be changing fast enough that we will see a change, but Toronto is almost an outlier in the world on crime rates. So Pickering is an A- on crime. Fredericton is an F. You would never guess it walking around. Though the same report says Pickering is a D- on health, while Fredericton is an A-, which is ridiculous because you can't get a doctor in Fredericton, unless there is one in the family. So maybe the stats are bogus.

“Canadian Experience”? My husband is German and has both American and German citizenship. He had worked in Switzerland and all over the US. He is a Rocket Scientist and entrepreneur. I guess he has no chance in Canada. This is not good for a country.

Where do you think they're going? You get one guess.

Okay, so I guess Europe will be taking in Palestinian refugees instead of other Arab nations.

like what do you say to this? Hamas wanted war - they are getting it - if Palestine people dont recognize that hamas was wrong - then I guess Israel will whipe hamas back tothe stone age - pretty simple

I guess your parents (maybe grandparents) moved to Canada as refugees, and milked that country for all the possible benefits and freebees for two or three generations. \nNow the country that welcomed you with open arms is no longer to your taste.\nYou are leaving, but you should've never been there. \nIf you had any decency you should renounce your Canadian citizenship.\nYou don't, so you won't. You're looking for some more gains from Canada.\nIf you had any pride you would travel with Palestine or Jordanian passports.

I guess you would be best off going to a Muslim country.

There is only one reason Canadians are leaving Canada, and it’s Trudeau.... that’s it.\n\nTrudeau and many United Nations countries are being run by an outside entity called the World Economic Forum WEF. You and about 500,000 people he has been immigrating every year over the last 8 years. He is trying to over burden our healthcare system, our housing shortage, and our job market; and also quadrupled the increase of the useless carbon tax which causes inflation on all of our housing, food, gas, and heating, and our dollar.\nTrudeau and the WEF want to crash the Canadian system so that they can move to a one world government that includes all of the United Nations Countries.....this is your answer, and this is why real Canadians are leaving the country.\nTrudeau wants to control peoples lives through digital ID, digital money, and 5 minute cities, and track everyone’s carbon footprint.... all of this leads to NO MORE FREEDOM.\n\nSo most of your video is only the impacts of these much bigger issues, and if you aren’t watching Trudeau in parliaments question period every day, then you won’t see between the lines and see his real snake like intentions.\n\nI am an Albertan who’s family that has been here 2 years before Canada became Canada, I would leave Canada but I’m waiting to see if Pierre can become our new Prime Minister and undo what Trudeau’s WEF infiltrated government has done to our country; if Trudeau gets back in; I’m waiting to see the civil war that will undoubtedly take place.\n\nThis is the real information you are looking for, now your guess work is done, now you need to figure out if you are going to stay or leave.

So go live in a Muslim country under Sharia law where surely a tyrant is the ruler. Im sure you'll love it. We're in 2024, The world has changed and is changing..YOU NEED TO ADAPT NOT RUN AWAY! Most Muslim countries denies freedom to citizens particularly woman...Guess you will love the country rules. Enjoy!

I guess with the so many trees burnt in bushfires in Canada sooner or later there's going to be a new issue and that's serious air pollution.

Huh. I love Canada's secularism and support for LGBT people. So... Bye, I guess? Two fewer people who oppose LGBT rights can only make Canada better.

We're trying to survive on this side too. People are losing their jobs, not getting paid enough as everything gets more expensive and don't even get me started on the stupid amount in rent. I understand that they need help or their government sucks but guess what, we need help too and Joe Biden is our president?. Must I say more.

San Francisco north. Lawlessness. Soft on crime. No one helping each other anymore, loss of community. I live north of the city, and shudder every time i have to make my way into it. Its funny in a way, because the people there maintain that the answer is more socialist policies, and keep voting them in, even though it clearly continues to NOT work. make your bed and lie in it , i guess.

I'm not Canadian, so I'm very neutral on this topic, but I could not help to be perplexed as I listened to your long video, as I try to understand why are you still living in in Canada if it is such terrible place?! I guess it must be better than the country you were born in , when despite all of the bad things you talk about, you stay there.....

Im not against it. We may need the numbers soon. They come here for more than just the narrative. Its alot for the states to take on currently cant say it isnt. Things become more hyped in everyway..it almost seems like were bound for another war close to home if not just home.. Theyre leavibg for a reason. I ca only guess that they dnt want t be there. We have a good portion of state side troops home and ready. But if mexico cant protect whats theirs, i dont think they should have it. My arguement being..we the mf people will need the land. Hater gunna hate, u ca suck it up when this gets pushed in to fluition. I didnt want it. I just saw this shit coming.

Well missing a loud speaker five times a day?\nSee you. I guess A UN rating for best country in top 5 is not good enough for you.\nBYE BYE.

He avoided the question completely. I guess he is hiding the answer as it will not be a good one. \n\nThere are women and children in the war zone. They should live to not be killed. And he is simply saying some sort of ignorant crap like war zone can disappear, and its their land (so they should just stay and die there). A bit stupid, dont you think?

Really Arabic countries use fantanics as a tool that what clearly siad but yet they go free countries wonder i tell you it purpose is too disgrace and destroy a culture they allowed too do but not other Arabic countries what double standards come on please ? bro i for one don't care at all why not my issue are problem when there ever peace in that part of world ? that why no one should care everyone should mian they own business that been happening for centuries it very all problems History alone should tell u why ?\nBut they never understand this words no one's land everyone's land very simple like other countries when everyone has get all got along guess this both sides backwards people will never understand why care

Oh. I thought this was Jan 6. I guess they are free to mob into the country.

I guess it's the same for non Muslims who feel they have to leave Muslim lands and travel to places like Canada and the west so as to feel accepted as equals.

I guess Egypt is not a part of the Arab world then?

With all the proof of Democratic undermining I’ve seen, Saul slinky radical behavior, and overall Marxist actions (I read the manifestos and see it happening now)… I’d be willing to guess that this was all incited by the Biden CIA/FBI……just like the Juccy Smollett of insurrections was ???

As an atheist I wish you all the best, it's true the political games destroying the West from within. Though I'm on the side of LGBT and i believe that they should have rights like everyone else, at the same time I understand that some extreme ideologies can go and push so far and I agree that let kids be kids. My only concern is that Islamic countries do not have any rights for LGBT people at all, in fact, they are being prosecuted based on religion since religion is basically the law. I guess only time will tell if you made the right choice, I can not recommend any country this is something that you need to research deeply and make a decision for yourself.\nI'm in British Columbia, and my child had never experienced any drug queen library stories or anything like that, nor did teachers teach them anything without our consent, there is full transparency between teachers and parents.\nAt the same time, I'm just like you disproving collective punishment of Palestinian citizens, the atrocities are sickening and I couldn't believe that the United Nations is tiptoeing and not being proactive in defending Palestinian children, it's just unthinkable to me that it's happening in the 21st Century.

I guess you will be changing the name of your channel from 'Living in Canada' to 'Leaving Canada'

Canadian dream is so expensive I guess

The reason behind all these factors except the last one is socialism. No matter if comes from the right or the left. But a decade of government under Trudeau's policies only made it worse. I think it's fair to say that the reason why people are leaving Canada is mainly socialism but I guess it would be a too short video without getting too much into politics.

I guess you won't be living in any Gulf country apart from Yemen.\nI totally agree with you on all of the points.\nI guess you would be moving to Turkeyie

Middle East is blossoming because of its morally youth population compared to the west. So I guess this is the about time we all make hijra and leave the west.

It would be easier to take you seriously if you were not wearing that T-shirt and baseball cap backwards. Grown men do not do that. You are not 10 years old anymore.\n\nWhere were you born? Vancouver is OK but the architecture is bland and repetitive, as you have correctly stated.\n\nCanada has a short history. One of the oldest major cities in Canada is Quebec City which was founded only in 1608.\n\nYou are right: health care here is NOT free! Far from it.\n\nCanadians and Americans cannot drink in public because their citizens are not mature enough to control their alcohol consumption.\n\nWhere did you move to? Portugal. OK. Have you been to Brazil?\n\n\nI guess you are well off, then. More power to you.

I am here 10 years. One thing that was really shocking to me was how many people were sheeple right when the pandemic happened. LOVE to listen to what they are told to do! People refused to socialize and try to reach out. Young people. Well guess what? That was the beginning of bad news. I also have been surprised at the amount of people who assume all Americans are like Trump and have messed up attitudes towards Americans. I am looking forward to a better Canada. A place where maybe people can start coming up with friendlier ways of living life.

Let me guess.....low wages....expensive country....and buy a house only for the rich

I think your reading of the situation is slight from the wrong end of scope. \n\n1> the job of the Canadian gov is to look after Canadians. (Yes they allow immigrants but that is for the benefit of Canadians and not the other way around. \n\nThe house prices are intentionally kept high. The reason is because it makes existing citizens richer. (Year on year) these people vote and the gov would like their vote) . Creating huge supply of housing is going to crash the market and that will end up people feeling poor. (Values will drop : demand and supply) . Falling values mean people will feel poor and then less likely to vote for the current administration.\n\nI am based in UK which is experiencing record amount of immigration. \n\nTaxes here are high.(I don’t mind high taxes as long as there are good public services to show for them) \n\nGood roads \nHigh speed internet \nGood infrastructure \nHospitals \n\nSo the job of the gov (in western hemisphere) generally is to keep the voting public happy. \n\nThat involves \n\n1>Good public services (most are social states and people accept high taxation as a trade off for good public services) \n\n2> rising house prices. (Voting public wants to feel richer and owning your home is like your retirement and pension pot. Most of the wealth in uk is stored in property. (I guess same in Canada to some extent ) \n\n3> control of immigration. People want immigration but want good immigration l. People who will come and contribute to society. Too much of it can be an issue for existing citizens and also immigrants themselves selves.\n\n\nOn a separate note. People deciding where to settle always remember. Long term the proximity to the world matters . Europe is still the centre of the world. Cross east to Asia and west to Canada and USA etc. living in Canada (west coast specially is like the edge of the world just like living in NZ ) \n\nPopulation matters. \nThe Canadian population and Australian population is less than of Uk (as far as I know ) and the land mass is huge. It is not a big market compared to some of the countries compared to Europe. \n\nMore people = more demand = more big companies want to compete =lower prices for consumers and less inflation .\n\nJust some thoughts on this last day of 2023z happy new years all .

Well, you guys are leaving for 5 reasons. I see a lot of others who are not Muslim leaving for the un-affordability. So i guess that alone is the reason but you have a lot more. I support your decision and i think you should do what your heart says.

It is interesting to hear opinions about living in Canada from an Indonesian (my guess, and I am sorry if you are not) who has been living abroad (including in Canada) for many years. Great video form you. Btw, I do not live in Canada.

I live in NYC, and have been to Canada at least four times, but the last time I was there was quite some time ago. I always had a good thought about Canada, because it seems like some of the problems we have in this city, Canada also has in some way. Right now the city is a complete mess; at post pandemic and with a bit of a recession and a noticeable increase in groceries to basic things like cat food and tissues. That's not the biggest problem, it really is the legislation or lack of for people who not care for themselves. Those homeless people are almost not helpable and I don't feel threatened by them, but other people definitely do. The way the government has handled these undocumented migrants is a complete disaster and couldn't have come at a worse time. We have a serious housing crisis as well, and people can end up paying for high rent, for not the best places, but they want to live in a certain location. The migrants are coming in at about 60k in the last two weeks. You see mothers with little kids or babies selling candy all over the trains and it's becoming too much. Many see it as a form of child abuse or exploitation and we do not respect it at all. I think they feel we are weak and will just pay double for something we don't need. At one station today I must have be approached 3 times and interrupted 2 times while using my phone. It's just too much and we already have a lot of immigrants here, so I'm not sure where these people believe they will find any meaningful employment and the cold is coming. I wasn't born here, but came legally as an infant. I think the border situation is a disaster and it's obvious to a lot of people that the government lets things happen that will definitely effect citizens in the next couple of decades. The city is crowded enough and I do not know where this is all going, people do not want undocumented migrants house a few hundred feet from a childrens school. I just don't understand how they let this happen....I guess this is how Biden does things and all the groups that cheered buses pulling in when it first started are dwindling down....they just want them passed on to someone elses responsibility, but wouldn't want them as neighborhors necessarily. It's a lot of hypocrisy here. Canada seems better in some places, and the same in others.

I guess that means that you won't support hammas.

So that's the key.....I guess this could be applied to Europe to deal with illegal migraines.......

Now I am really second guessing moving to Canada...

Well I guess what Trump wanted to do isn't looking too bad now...Biden and Mayorkas has destroyed America and turning it into a 3rd world country ......Hmmm

I love how the commentator acts like these fn Immigrants aren't loving Canada because their aren't abandoned indian kids defecating in the streets! I guess by those standards, yea Canada would be high on the list

I guess you are moving to Australia.

SubhanAllah, I guess we’re all moving inshaAllah lol. I have also been thinking about this for so long!!! I live in Cali and as much as I love it here, its not the best to raise my kids in especially the shootings, schools teachings and basically every single reason you’ve mentioned. May Allah make it easy for us all. Can’t wait to see where you move

Wow. Had no idea you are homophobic. I guess it had to come out eventually. Before anyone snaps at me - my father is Muslim, I grew up with Muslim family and there are many Queer Muslims who are in Muslim countries. Saying you can't be Muslim and Queer is as wrong as when fundamentalist Christians spread homophobia.
