Ooo, you are so kind …then let them stay in Canada!!!

Don’t let these people use scare propaganda to fool you into leaving Canada, stay and fight for your country.

Canada = ice, ice and more ice + high taxes + not much opportunity. They should pay us to stay in this cold boring place.

i hate hearing this because this is the usa too. when u dont land well right out of school you gotta fight ..get it..and dont let it go. but also try to stay in canada..live your dream..AND possibly get a regular full time job like a school bus driver instead of some hip cooler dream gig. educated type people think they have to have the LOOK and end up looking delusional. im sorry but if you come to the usa youre going in the wrong direction. canada is big and free.. and were crazy and WE'LL ROB YOU in the us. so...

Im in the US it must be a Canada thing as far as the bill thing and girl stay there the US is insane you have it better there im thinking about jumping ship and coming up there!

If Canada is not that Good then stay in India. Or stay in your country of origin. Immigration to other people's country is NOT a right.

Fine, let them go. Basically Canada should offer three choices for immigrants:\n\n1) bring in enough money with you to enjoy a good life\n\n2)work hard after arriving to make enough money and enjoy a good life\n\n3) leave Canada if you don’t have money and don’t want to work hard for a good life.\n\nNo one should be entitled to a good life, especially when they just arrived. the last thing we need is to pay for people to immigrate and stay here. We should have the same standard for everyone, no matter where they are from.

I've lived here for 13 years , I don't regret coming here but I do regret staying this long . What you get sold as Canada isn't what you get .\n\n 2:29 the million dollar question! Lol

In the past 2 years - I have spent 3 months in Toronto, and last year, 3 months in Montreal...and it is like the Tale of Two Cities! In Toronto, I stayed at a friend's off the park that abuts Queens St, and Dundas St. on the far side. I barely got a good night's sleep - from the constant wailing of Sirens at ALL Hours of the night/early morning! I witnessed several incidents of random violence - including on the trolly cars, and many of them involving homeless Indigenous people ...who were historically shit-on by Canada! In comparison to US Cities - Toronto minded me of problem-plagued SF, Seattle, and Portland. The Density factor reminded me of NYC, minus the Positive Street savvy that New Yorkers have in spades! I did meet some very nice people, but overall - Torontonians were uptight, concerned about money all the time, and sometimes - just downright rude! Fast-Forward to Montreal. I stayed in Le Plateau...renting a room for 3 months. Lovely House-mates - One Turkish/Polish Woman, and an Iranian Man - both were quirky, and Delightful! My rent was very decent, and my Host showed me all the affordable places to eat, swim for free, free Yoga in the parks...within 2 days, I felt at Home! It was 3 days before I even noticed a siren! Drivers stoped for pedestrians, and as it was summer - the bike-lanes were full of bike riders! The Green Spaces were plentiful, and Parc Mount Royal is a Terrestrial Paradise! Were there some social issues? - of Course! French being the official language, the Quebecois are a VERY Proud, and defiant lot! That was difficult at first, and then...learning some history of Quebec, you begin to understand their irascible defenses! There was some homelessness (a Fraction of what I see in the US, and Toronto!), and prices are creeping-up (the common complaint!), and there was a lot of construction, and road repairs - as Quebec is NOT a wealthy part of Canada, overall. In short - I miss Montreal DEEPLY! Toronto? - I have a good friend there, and I hope to see a few of the folks I met there, Again. Travel Impressions are mainly subjective, but I know where my heart, and affection lie!

That’s because they are only after the Canadian citizenship - once they got that they don’t stay whether they can afford to be in canada or not - they are after the Canadian passport - DUH!!!

EVERYONE WHO GOES TO THE STATES IS KNOT A STATISTIC\n\nEVERYONE WHO KEEPS THEIR CANADIAN CITIZENSHIP DOES KNOT COUNT \n\nEVERYONE WHO LEAVES ANY HAPPY CHILDREN IN CANADA DOES KNOT COUNT \n\n\nANYONE WHO VASTLY IMPROVED THEIR WEALTH DURING THEIR STAY AND MOVES TO A CHEAPER OPTION DOES KNOT COUNT \n\n\nEVERYONE STILL WANTS 15 YEARS OF AWESOME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why so many people from india, Mexico and so? Don't get it, first off all Canada is way to cold for you guys, stay home....

Hard working immigrants who came here to build their life and they realised Canada is white elephant and wont do anything to improve their life. Note only freebees who came here on asylam and their 5-7 kids only stay here as they are getting tonnes of money from this shitty government and putting all burdon on Hardworking citizens

Stay the fuck away from Canada. Immigration is destroying canada

Dont come to Canada, stay in your home county or another country. Very expensive cost of living (home and rent) and false hopes.

The man interviewed at the end is why our son left the country for Europe after graduating from Queens. Canadians are addicted to immigration to stay relevant in a way not seen in other countries. There's a smug quality to it all. Oh how wonderful and accepting are we - in contrast to those Trump people to the south. Here in Halifax the changes are both stunning and alienating as the premier seeks to double the province's population by 2060. My family and I immigrated from the U.S. 20 years ago, and I doubt any of us will remain here much longer. Living in Canada has made me realize how Canadian I am not. I actually stand for something. Canada's future is mass immigration and digging things out of the ground and selling them to China and the US.

I was considering migrating to Canada or USA before covid. But covid showed the reality of both so I ended up staying home.

only immigrants will leave are students and people who just got fed up paying higher bills because after all if you make 35k to 75k and you need 3 jobs just to eat and pay bills why even stay here when back home is much cheaper , india does have 1 billion people and there cheaper to live there and they have cheap health care and cheap food , there is big difference between canada which is only 40 million and vers india 1 billion of people and yet there prices are cheaper and yet our prices just out right crazy !

I came to Canada and made research and considered to stay and made same conclusion that attractiveness of Canada is somehow a bubble . However I hope things will get better for this country and its beautiful people ??

Canada is not a bad place to stay if you are planning for retirement. As a young man, I don't want to pay high tax with little recognition. EOM

Why these boarder crosser don’t stay in US, instead flee to Canada?

It's better to stay in your country of origin since Canada is waaay to expensive. It's gotten crazy with the housing costs.

then Indian stay in your country. Nobody ask you to go to Canada.

I love Canada, but Toronto is definitely my least favourite city. I have friends there and always have fun staying there, but there is no way I could live there. I had my eyes on the west coast, but I really love life in Montreal and I cannot imagine ever leaving.

Housing prices are so crazy that I just rent a room and six months per year go live in developing countries of Asia. My income in Canada is only 25K as a single retired person. No home. No car. No partner or family responsibilities. No job. Cook at home only. No alsohol or drugs.\n\nSo, there are solutions. GIS and living out of a suitcase. But I still think that spending $850 per month (33% of my income) is too high.\n\nBut besides money matters, I feel like a stranger in Canada as an old straight white man. Wokeness is extreme here. Taiwan does not radically change the demographics and promote weird ideas. If I want to be surrounded by Asians I can stay in Sulawesi. Train system? Yes, don't get me started. Public drug use!

If the Hindus don't like it, they can study in Mumbai. The students don't need a place to live, they just need NOT go to Canada. However, Canada should be building more houses. THE HINDU NATIONALIST TALK AND TALK ABOUT HOW WONDERFUL IS INDIA BUT AT THE FIRST CHANCE THEY COME TO THE WEST. SORRY, but if Canada is too cold, not enough spicy or smelly for you. Then stay at home in Bangalore.

Who says so, you muslim love to stay in Canada make lots of babies and screw the government for child benefits and no need to work.

American has eliminated the middle class. Stay where you are. Don’t come to America thinking it’s better. The politics are worse then canadas.

No country is perfect due to so many reasons, the politics, the culture, natural resources, economic affairs, Healthcare and even the thinking pattern of inhabitants themselves. And it is natural for things to change over time in every aspect. We just need to look at these things with an open mind and make decisions. If Canada would not fulfill your desires simply stay in your homeland and may be try to make it a great place to live.

Normal people are not wanted stay in Canada... its terrible how this country is communiste under Trudeau...\nWhen illegal immigrants prefer go to USA when they realised how this country is falling

Don’t come to UK, stay in Canada, it’s the same here.

Im happy to hear people are leaving canada. This country wasnt suppose to house the world. Sorry to hear if you cant survive here but its really not our problem. Locals have a rough time as it is with no other option but to stay. I prefer to stay. I like living in canada even though i travel aboard for a 1/3 of the year

I came from Uganda to Canada. It isn't easy but I would rather stay here than go back. Life is what you make it to be, things get better over time. you need grit and resilience if you have a dream, going back to your old life is giving up. NEVER GIVE UP, NEVER GIVE IN.

To many indians in to many country s ,stay at you re home and make you re country great,if you go in london they are everywhere,in canada same....

I thought about moving to Canada which is 7 hours north of Philadelphia where I currently live but I decided to stay in the good old U.S. of A.

I’ve visited Canada in the past but I’m going to stay in the good old U.S. of A.

Please STAY in India...don't COME to Canada....!!!

So 83% have stayed in Canada over 20 years. Sounds pretty good to me!

Canada is white scam, dont lure on that...imagine Canada gets billions of dollars for WES ICAS application, student permits, visas and others.....better you stay in your home country. if you all go out your country., the crock politicians will be happy because they know all the talented skilled workers are out of country especially india....please love your country....

It's interesting that immigrants are choosing to leave Canada whereas migrants are staying..

I also wanted to go to Canada to study there as international student, but due to lack of financial support, I think I wanted to stay here in the Philippines because of emerging growth and development even there are so many problems that we always face everyday. Also, my family needs me and life here is so satisfying and you can even do whatever you want and not being a slave to other nation...?‍?

In Canada you can make $300,000 in a couple of months. It depends what you’re into what you can do if it’s legal or not legal but legally you can make $300,000 $400,000 up to 1 million a year if you know what you’re doing and you have the opportunity to do it as a bottom of the food chain your rent is $1000 for one bedroom that you will be sharing with with complete strangers you have winter that it’s six months long it’s like you’re living in North India in the Himalayas mountains and then you have Ray schism all different type of race schism from all over Europe that came to this North American country. They don’t want you to take their job. and take their sister or their wives or anything like that. These people in this country cannot reproduce they’re not reproducing or doing anything they’re into the pronouns they’re not into normal normality otherwise than that the summers are great. They are some decent white people here we have lotta Caribbean people lotta Russians here it’s up to you to come and endure this country. It’s brutal winters there’s a chinook and the Chinook gives you headaches throughout the winter. It’s something different that if you’re from a tropical country. There are no fresh fruits in the winter time, here and fresh. Anything everything is a couple weeks old. The women over here are horrible. The longer you stay in this country, the lighter, your skin complexion becomes. If you were dark skin, you became light skin if you came here light skin you now you became white skin The food at the grocery stores are all GMO’s all these fat fast food joints G emoji they have chemicals in them that cause birth defects every single thing illegal in the real world. This place is a commercialize worksite.

I am a US citizen and think of moving to Canada. Gun violence, homeless on the street, and migrants are hazard to live here. I went to Montreal last summer, staying in Travelodge near Old Montreal. Two nights stay cost me over $500 USD. It is really outrageous as I spent the same amount for a whole week on cruise, including room and all meals 4 years ago. I understand the inflation, but this same hotel usually charged me $200 US dollars in the summer. Now, Canada becomes un affordable to us. ?
