The other day I went to Eaton Center and as I entered I took out my passport, cause I wasn't sure if I'm still in Canada...

These days , if u tell that the truth is the truth and it goes against some corrupt person in power ,it becomes risky.. what a time we live in where right is not right and wrong is not wrong..

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ shukran we are very proud and happy to hear words like this because we are all Muslims we cannot sit down and look this atrocity and they say they have right to defend himself in wrong ways killing children's women and men just doing what they want, we will see the day we all come front of our Lord when are they have the right to to do this wrong that they have been doing

I am not Muslim but Canada is still a great country. A Muslim country will be a huge change and it does depend on the country. I lived in Morocco for 2 years and you are judged by your money. Really snobby people. They hate the poor and there are lots of poor people. Cost of Living has also increased. Lovely climate. No job opportunities for young people. I worked in Dubai for 6 months. All bling and only the 20 % have any proper say. Spent a holiday in Oman. Woman still kept back. Also might get caught up in Middle East conflict. Countries like Kuwait/Saudi etc very strict after freedom of Canada. Albania probably would not be strict enough for you. 60% percent Muslim. Had a holiday there about 10 yrs ago. Beautiful in summer and I believe still reasonable. Will be interested to see where you pick. I live in Ireland cost of living madly expensive!! I have cousins in Montreal. Have spent many vacations there. Why not try Vancouver for better weather? I just love Canada but all my immediate family are here. Will be in Canada again in September.\nReally living in a country just because of your religion in this day and age is not great. We now live in a Global World. If you have good family values that is all that matters. Anyway Good Luck but it is a big jump.

The British over promised that land to the Zionists, the Palestinians and the Arabs. I'm glad the Arabs are not part of this fight. I hope one day Britain pays for the mess it created. \nEven here in Pakistan and India, they left us a gift

spread the word by all means. Canada is cold and miserable most of the year as you need to stay indoors, Travelling to work when it’s dark in the morning and coming home when it’s dark, how can that be enjoyable. People who enjoy living in very dry warm climates should live there. Housing would be much cheaper in most Muslim countries and no need to have the heater on 24/7 just to stay warm . The sports is so different, Grid Iron in summer and Hockey in winter. Soccer is much easier and to play Cricket all you need is a bat, stumps and a ball and off you go all day.?

I'm an immigrant and my immigrant friends and I were talking about exactly this just the other day. I'd like to add some context on why so few international students stay: they can't. Schools prey on this very fact. In international recruiting, these schools use the promise of thriving local industries and trot out graduates working locally as major draws to these expensive programs. Then once students are in Canada, many of these schools couldn't care less: they offer little or sometimes no housing support, no immigration advice (or in my case and many of my friends' cases: they give straight-up false immigration advice that can screw you over or even get you in trouble). There absolutely needs to be regulation and accountability for these predatory schools; I think a good starting point would be capping the number of visas they can apply for based on the number of housing units available (either on-campus or via local development subsidy and homestays). Tons of students come to Canada completely unprepared due to false promises made by these schools, and then get spit out into an egregiously inefficient and broken work visa system.\nMy immigrant friends and I are all highly skilled in our specific field. There are only a handful of people in the world (let alone in Canada) who can do what I do at the level I do it, so I would be incredibly difficult to replace if I left Canada. Despite that, and despite being Canadian-educated (Canadian resources invested in me that you'd want to keep in Canada), remaining in Canada has been a massive struggle for me and my friends. We individually spend hundreds and even thousands of dollars every year to apply for permits that have to be renewed annually, but take the government 6+ months to process. Because the government is so backed up, we have to apply for *extra* permits to bridge that gap (more money, and more work added to IRCC's already-long line of applications). I'm in limbo for the majority of the year where I can't switch employers, can't leave the country, etc. It's horrible. \nBut I have it better than most. Of the international students in my year, only I and one other student are still in Canada because the transition to work permits is so needlessly long and difficult. Even a graduate who does manage to get a work permit might have to sit unemployed for 6 months or more before that permit is active. How is a student supposed to survive without work for that long? In order for employers to even apply to sponsor a graduate, they often have to do a lengthy labor market impact assessment, and so these graduates are stuck in a holding pattern, and they're the lucky ones. Immigration is absolutely vital to Canada and I hate how quickly these stories turn to xenophobic rhetoric, but we have to make space in the conversation to take a look at how schools are exploiting students and policy loopholes, and why they're doing it, and address those problems. The current system isn't fair to anyone.

Boy's mistake.Was there any Ethnic day?What was the need to show off the Kirpan in a country which is not aware of this culture and where there are mass shootings in a campus .

I voted Liberal in 2015; I regret that decision every single day. Trudeau just bloody resign. You’ve done so much damage to this country idk if it’ll can ever be repaired and the fact that you can’t see that amazes me. *RESIGN*

At the end of the day, this is immigration's fault. They didn't regulate it properly.

you have put it nicely, but after listening to you, I believe, that one day you will return back to Canada, I have been in Canada for one year and agree with what you said.....

These things are happening a lot, now just the other day I read that passenger bite the flight attendant..... this is outrageous behavior, my pre schoolers behave much better ???

I agree, Canada is not what it was. Number three on you list, as you said in other Muslim countries, Canada is not one, and I don't wish to hear your call to prayer broadcasted out 5 times a day. I wish you both well.

But what about those leaving?? Canada is very confusing these days

And not to mention 700 refugees per day entering QC, simply there's no infrastructure to support the demographic change.

Not often and not many Muslims Seek a better life in Muslim countries And it's not Islam's fault per say Christianity WAS much, much worse Crusades, Inquisitions, religious wars ! ! \nYou surely know all of this It is at what level of EVOLUTION is present Islam is at ? With ISIS et al. wanting to throw it back even a few more centuries back ! ! ? I think you are both intelligent enough to realize that present day Muslim countries Are full of corruption, wealth inequalities, wars and terrorism and INTOLERANCE And As we painfully learned It is going to stay like that as long As Islam claim to have all answers Precluding them from learning anymore (as they have all the answers) \nAnd Muslim not pushing back to just another version of Theocracy \nThis one the RIGHT one, this time ! ! ? You really got to me when you mentioned your 2 young girls Which like any children of immigrants Have no problem with winter, local food And INTEGRATING (As they carry no ideological baggage... yet) \nYou are factually stealing many good opportunities to develop themselves to their full potential The exact reason forcing many immigrants in much worse situation than you guys To stay and put up with the mentioned and real difficulties (Yes difficulties are much harsher with immigrants) But you guys are Canadians ! ! ? You had it easier ! \nBTW Muslims have it easier than blacks or natives Not that it necessarily will make you feel better to know that you could be more badly treated So... I worry for your daughters \n(I have lived happily in Muslim countries for 15 years) Which make me say that \nIf you guys are not back here in a few yours I would be surprised I would be even more surprised If your daughters eventually, immigrate back here \nIn challah \nAnyway Life is full of challenge Parents have to take the best possible decisions, at the time I wish you guys luck And hope for the best for you guys Salam Halle Koum

Until Canada’s infrastructure and job levels can meet immigration numbers, I hope all those considering Canada take these exit videos as a warning. There is a reason Canadians have a declining birth rate - we simply cannot afford life here. Don’t be fooled thinking you can. Don’t come here! My family have been in Canada for numerous generations and I think of leaving EVERY day.

Genesis 15:18\n“On that day the LORD made a covenant with Abram and said, 'To your descendants I give this land, from the Wadi of Egypt to the great river, the Euphrates-- “\nJoshua 1:4\n“Your territory will extend from the desert to Lebanon, and from the great river, the Euphrates--all the Hittite country--to the Mediterranean Sea in the west.”\n\n\nJeremiah 31:35-36\n“ This is what the Lord says,\nhe who appoints the sun\n to shine by day,\nwho decrees the moon and stars\n to shine by night,\nwho stirs up the sea\n so that its waves roar—\n the Lord Almighty is his name:\n “Only if these decrees vanish from my sight,”\n declares the Lord,\n“will Israel ever cease\n being a nation before me.”

since I’m on disability pension I can walk to the mosque five times a day

Should of gone to Australia\nWoman get a free yes free ride through life\n1 fat fat fat welfare payments for ever..yes to the day you pas away\nOr 2 fat fat fake public self servents jobs.only woman voter's only need to apply

Do you want to end up as England???? Canada is vast compared with England but that vastness is mostly barren.So big Cities here we go.\nThey need to put a cap on immigration /and asylum seekers. It already is out of control…. look at the people living on the streets ??? \nPeople who are working night & day find it hard to make ends meet. So where are we , what is the expectation? We are heading to Disaster I feel with this volume of people coming in,and all their family tag on’s….. Ridiculous Government..

No they lied to the international students than brought in a bunch of immigrants and wiped out all the minimal wage jobs and when the students got here what they were promised wasn't what it was......but that's all ottawa and it's puppet news is these days lies lies lies

A kirpin is? A curved, single-edged blade. Also known as a knife. F that. Your woke days are over budro. A knife is a knife is a knife today. And honestly, those head wraps cause PTSD for people. Keep it at your place. In public areas, think about how others feel. You walking around looking like you are prepped for holy war. WTF are you thinking. Selfish AF.

Naging Mature c Andrew Chang from those days na nasa CBC Vancouver cya, I like his professionalism!

No...We just got a new big benefit....10 dollar a day daycare, does not effect me but is great for many people. The good of the many outweighs the good of the few

All talk no actions Hope you will pay on the Day of Judgement

Listened to your vlog and I want to suggest few things as an immigrant myself... I am not sure of your detials but seems like your husband came back after 2 months leaving you there with family.. I have rarely seen any family settling abroad unless they have seriously burnt all there bridges back home.. if you start with a mindset that let's go and see and if doesn't work out we will come back 90% odds are you will go back.. firstly come with absolutely clear mind that no matter what happens you are not going back.. and you will make it here no matter what. The journey will become much easier and one directional.. Secondly you do not have to rely on any family abroad to move.. this is an other mistake people make.. they think they will have support but this support is actually a limiting option ... it doesn't let you get on feet quicker. Nobody can support you for long abroad and sooner than later you have to get on your feet. once you over stay your welcome you can start getting some unwelcoming vibes and then you get depressed thinking there is no one genuinely yours in this country.. you waste your initial time relying on your family.. better start without them in the first place and get going from day one.. and lastly 2 3 months is nothing to settle any where let alone in Canada.. you have to be patient, persistent and focused and after 2 years and after seeing all the calendar and religious seasons twice, you finally start to think of new place as your home.. its hard but in the end it's truly worth it and then you can never go back to India or Pakistan

I'm looking forward to the day when the CBC gets defunded. They are in part responsible for promoting the policies that got us to this situation.

480,000 people have immigrated to Canada in the last 90 days. These are the poorest of the poor, people that are considered low skill in Punjab. Canada is taking them all, with no plan to feed or house them.

The saddest part is that many students are barely making ends meet, and at the end of the day, it ends up being 6:50 that's how they're treated by most people

Hey friends. I just came across your channel scrolling. \nI’m a white Christian woman in my 40s. Single and no children. \n\nI agree with all of your reasons. I respect you and I respect your beliefs. I wish more people could just live and let live. \n\nI do not judge people based on religion or belief, nationality, skin colour, age, appearance, etc. I try not to judge people at all but I am human and unfortunately flawed. \n\nBut I give all people respect because every human being on this earth are deserving of basic respect and dignity by virtue of their very existence. \n\nI just subscribed and I’m looking forward to watching your older videos and being educated on what it has been like for you to be Muslim in Canada. \nHave a blessed day.

Definitely is not true canada is paradise all bloggers from Philippines the salary is 1million per day

You are absolutely right dear. I've lived in Canada since November 1968, moving from England where I consider trying to live there to be even worst than Canada. I am 82 years old now, having survived through a number of hard times here. However when I have finally paid off my mortgage, I'm going to have a little money to travel for three or four months every year, but I have to stay in Canada for at least 183 days each year to continue receiving my pension.

If canada imposed sharia law and call for azan on loudspeaker 5times a day then i think we muslims can stay in canada

Bless you both. I agree with the indoctrination part, too much forcing agenda, wokism and not respecting peoples beliefs, we arent multi cultural if we cannot have respect for peoples faith and subjecting people to things that is considered against their values and beliefs. You can respect someone for their decision but it should not be forced to be a part of you. The cost of living is horrible here and agree with you 100%. I too prefer a beach over snow any day of the week. Hope you both find a place that is ideal for you both and your family.

You didn't even mention the bombed out looking streets and closed highway ramps making driving a nightmare. Antifa riots every May day too. There's videos on youtube of it. Hey but at least they're changing the street names, that won't confuse tourists too much, lolol!

Why These Things Happening Frequently Now a days ?.?

The Saudi ?? government is sold. I say this as a Muslim. I’m born and raised in Canada ??. I loveeeee Canada but I love Saudi more than Canada because of ALLAH , Prophet Muhammad (saw) and Islam. Other than that, these modern day Saudi politicians have oppressed, killed, commit evil and kufr. They left 20 million plus, starving in Yemen ??…. What makes you think they’ll care for Palestine ?? ?????\n\nQur’an 14:42\nAnd never think that Allah is unaware of what the wrongdoers do. He only delays them for a Day when eyes will stare [in horror]. (Meaning the day of judgement)

Canada hasn't always been this expensive, no. On a single, very average, middle-class salary, my Grandparents bought a detached home in the GTA, raised 6 kids and still managed to save around $350,000 for retirement despite the fact my Grandfather's job (as many jobs did in those days) provided him with a defined-benefit pension plan, which has been entirely stripped away from modern workers.\n\nThat was a mere 60 years ago. Canada used to be a paradise. All you needed was a willingness to work.

Religious countries are backward countries,many of us believe the existing of God but God doesn't expect only religion from us but he expects from us good deeds in our every day lives.

I love Toronto but now a days I dislike to live and work here I will prefer move to a less expensive town and a calmer and not so dangerous place . Hoping my loved Canada do not imitate Toronto . Got permit not.

US family here. We were a big downhill skiing family, and often spent our winter vacations in the Laurentians. The exchange rate was great back in the 1990s and early 2000s. So when the time came to start looking at colleges, our daughter already associated Canada with fun, and fell in love with the University of Toronto. She was accepted. But before Canada would issue her a student visa, we had to provide evidence that we could pay full tuition, room, and board out of pocket. For all four years! They wanted an iron guarantee that she would never become a ‘ward of the state’ or consume public assistance services. We had to jump through soooo many logistical hoops for her to attend, it was exhausting to facilitate. But she graduated with honors in four years. All that time, the city was beautiful, clean, and vibrant, though not inexpensive. The St. George main campus, Queen’s Park, Bloor, Yongue Street, more. Everyone we met was friendly and respectful. We very rarely saw homeless and never tent communities. And crime seemed almost nonexistent except for bicycle thefts. Our daughter made many international friends and forged great relationships she carries to this day. So many wonderful memories. So it’s heartbreaking to hear how downhill the city has become. And the US is no different. It’s all in the politics, and neither Trudeau’s nor Biden’s policies are helping.

Something is very rotten in this world.. The governments of these countries heavily criticise The West but at the end of the day, their refugees from their countries come flocking to us for a better life.. Fleeing is easy! If you really want a better life, you need to work hard and push against your leaders to demand that your voice is heard! offering asylum is the humane thing to do yes, but it's not helping solve any problems. Sometimes you need to be cruel to be kind and i think it's about time we shut the doors.

There is a confirmed day of judgment \nAnd you all will be accountable for not taking any initiatives \n\nSilent about Quran specific verses ?

Typical city talk. Canada ugly? Get real. Not everybody is that foolish live in cities where you look at concrete all day, and have to deal with pollution, crime, traffic, etc. There are tons of beautiful smaller places in Canada where it's great living. Stop generalizing.\n\nThe weather? That's so lame, since you knew that beforehand, and to spend 10 minutes on that.... again, lame. \n\nCovid? You gotta be kidding me! There is a reason why Canada performed way better than many other countries. We all saw what happened in the USA where they weren't so strict. Again... ridiculous comment.\n\nThe rules? OMG... go to the USA! ???\n\nIsolation? It's pretty sad when you feel the need to live in a major metropolitan to feel happy... ~sigh~

Born and raised in toronto unfortunately I can't afford to get out of this shit hole It has become, to many gangs formed by immigrants. because our justice system gives them a free pass these days but if your born here you! don't!! Everything is about accommodating the criminals bottom line the government since 2000 destroyed what we stood for, and I'm going to say this don't move here its ugly it smells like piss and all the good restaurants are gone. Thier closing down ontario place to put a spa????? this government is a circus full of clowns

I love toronto - however I ate a gluten free brownie last time I was there and had horrific gas the rest of the day

Service providers are the most dishonest people these days. They take advance payment and never show up . Some of them will do horrible work and still ask for more money. Mississuaga home owners are having serious problems with service providers. New and wider roads are being constructed in India at very high speed. Trains are providing all modern services etc

There is a difference between Momin and a Muslim.On the day of judgment everyone of us will light of eman accordingly to what we have sent for here after.Hijra and trials wash off the sins from a believer.I have an intention for hijra. Please pray for me as well.

It's like they say if Israel stopped fighting the next day there would be no Israel, if the radicals stop fighting the next day there would be peace.
