Of all the empty cities in the United States, street after street.. there is plenty room here... these people just want to work, that's all.... ever time you eat salads, who do you think pick the fruit ?? because if American pick it it will cost too much....so let them work for God sake

I think people who leave the country is because don’t have the skills that required for the high cost of living specially in the biggest cities like Vancouver ,Toronto ,although Montreal was less expensive to live in compared to the others ones, \nNew immigrants coming to Toronto finds almost impossible to find a reasonable accommodation due to the high demands for housing ,family’s ‘re the most affected, One big reason some people are returning home is because the minimum wages at 18 dollars an hour -40 hours work , 2,880.00 dollars, minus tax, take home is 2,448.00 taxable at the rate of 15 %, , now your rent for one bedroom ,600 square feet cost $2.000 dollars a month , leave you with 448.00 to cover food, transportation , and utilities, at the end you haven’t save any money , So what to do just go home

They have adverts up for neom a city not yet built - they cannot house refugees. They don’t want to work with Israel, they look forward to a time when they can.

Born and raised in T.O. Toronto has always been a sh*t hole even back in the sixties and seventies growing up...what Alina has pointed out is the excelleration of this process with 'progressive', woke mayors and city council...

So basically the city counsels work directly to keep estate prices high by blocking all possible construction permits. Sounds like a prosecutor should look into.Why? Because robbing young people of their future just only to allow some old boomers to can increase their real estate value should be criminal.

Please check out the Sultanate of Oman. Capital city is Muscat. \n\nMaybe you would like to reside here. Peaceful place to live in with family.

The change is happening everywhere not just in Canadian Cities.

Toronto is a fake city.\n\n52% of people there were not born in Canada.

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’m a local Canadian and I very much agree with you. I’m planning on leaving as well and never moving back here. Canada used to be nice but now it’s just extremely expensive, residents are RIDICULOUSLY overtaxed, we’re not getting back the value of what we were taxed for, large cities like Toronto are overpopulated and thus the culture is highly diluted, left wing government, not to mention the cold wet and dark winters these days :(

Just the view of a tourist: we traveled through Canada twice in the last two years. Calgary was definitely worse than Toronto with all its drug-zombies and yelling homeless people on the streets and in the tram. It was disgusting and we really fled out of the city. \nVancouver has also those issues but it seems it's concentrated in the Hasting Street. Beside this it felt like the safest and prettiest City of Canada.

Here we go with another video slamming Toronto by selfish, naive asinine people. There are way too many immigrants, refugees, etc. already in this amazing lively beautiful city. If you can't find your place here, the heartbeat of Canada, second largest country in the world, by all means move, quietly, without fanfare and posting stupid videos about your unhapiness living in our SAFE CITY, NUMBER 3 SAFEST IN THE WORLD BY U.N. poll.

? I support Open boarder policy and Sanctuary Cities too... Send them to the blue states...

If you immigrate to Canada, you might wanna start picking a area or city that isn’t the most expensive ones in the nation, what would you expect, many of us fellow Canadians would never even dream of moving to Toronto in the first place. Yet immigrants for some strange reason expect to move to the largest areas and by far the most expensive and have a wonderful life there. Life doesn’t work that way Unfortunately.

As a Canadian, you hit the nail on the head on every aspect of living in Canada at the moment. The only thing I'd add is rural areas suffer from a lack of infrastructure and politicians who refuse to accept modern lifestyle and attractions. We still don't even have Uber or Door Dash or things like that here because the older generations in charge block it at every step.\nTourism for the entire east coast is based around fishing and nothing else really. Canada cares about it's main 3-4 hub cities, and the rest fall by the wayside, out of sight out of mind.

Why?\n\nCommunism in Venezuela caused this. \n\nWhy do you think border states (annoyed with Biden Administration inaction) are bussing and flying illegals to sanctuary cities?\n\nSanctuary city dwellers voted for this. They should open up their homes to allow what they voted. It's time to take ownership of the policies you wanted and voted for.

I moved out of Canada in 2023 due to the high living costs, after nearly a decade. Taxes are super high as you start making a bit more of money, healthcare is precarious (talk about preventative medicine… non-existing in Canada) and the real estate market is just the cherry on top. Making 200k plus I couldn’t buy a condo anywhere for me and my wife without accruing a lot of debt, at least a 2/3 bedroom as we both work from home. Even cities like Calgary, known before for cheap rent, have doubled the prices. \n\nToronto and Vancouver are blatantly used for money laundering and the government doesn’t care. Prices as a result have super inflated and people doing any type of decent work are the ones to pay for it. \n\nCanada is amazing if you are either VERY poor or VERY rich. The rest is better off moving elsewhere

Okay, assuming Israel is hell bent on eradicating the Palestinians (i don't think so but assume anyway). Will the Arab world just watch it happen? To what extent will the Arab world's compassionate restraint hold? Is there any point they will act as saviours? No, I don't think they want even a single one to come in even though they have infinite resources lol. They don't want their pristine golden cities to be lined up with refugees.

Canada has become a joke in the past few years. The tax collected is wasted on all unproductive stuff. Only a few cities where most of the population is concentrated resulting in a super high cost of living. It's not worth it any more.

We have Nazi Generals that receive standing ovations in our Parliament building. A Drug epidemic has filled our cities and a failing 3d world style Healthcare system, skyrocketing rent and food prices. This should state the current affairs in Nazi Canada. ?? ? Greetings ? from Calagry and may god be with you.

Welcome to malaysia, where u can choose to live ur life in big city or in 'kampung' that very peaceful.

Maricultural can do that to a city. High crime. This didn't happen 50 years ago I wonder way.

Mr. Saleh,\n\nI recommend that you consider immigrating to the Emirate of Sharjah, situated within the United Arab Emirates. The city is characterized by its exceptional security and safety. Additionally, this location provides a secure environment for families, as there is a plentiful availability of employment opportunities across all fields of expertise. Simultaneously, it is a traditional emirate and aligns perfectly with every part of your proposal. To the esteemed family:\n\nGreetings,

I often visit Western Canada but not the large cities. Canadians I've meet there are very proud of their Country and neighbors and happy with their life. I hope they wake up to the fact that uncontrolled immigration will distroy any country.

Born and raised in Toronto but as things were getting worse in Toronto, my wife and I decided to move up to a remote community in Nunavut. We simply cannot afford anything in the city anymore.

I'm in Guatemala City right now. I thought of trying to move to Australia or Europe before, but I never realized just how nice and easy things are in developing countries: Just by being a white person who speaks English, I have a well-paying job. An apartment right on the equivalent of Yonge-Dundas square, and I eat out for all meals.\n\nI'm the only gringo living in this part of the city, so I get a lot of attention, it's fun, women throw themselves at me*, and everyone wants to be my friend.\n\nI think I'll just live in Canada in the summer and somewhere warm in the winter, with plenty of summer-only jobs in Canada.\n\nI think I'll just live in Canada in the summer and somewhere warm in the winter.\n*I thought it would just be women who wanted green cards or money, but no, they all have more $$$ than I do, doctors, lawyers, government workers, etc. I'm like a status symbol they can show off to their friends.

In all honestly i'm Canadian and you have to be filthy rich to live here, our health care is shit and there is more homeless than anything even in the smaller cities, Everything is 2X more expensive here and the taxes is up through the roof because of fucking trudeau. It's not worth coming here unless you're rich.

You moved here and we all want to move there. the weather is better less crime less homeless you do not have to worry about your kids on drugs. Way to go on your choice. we have tent cities growing across the country and less people can afford to even rent a basement suite every year. Our currency is in a full collapse most Canadians I know are buying gold and silver as fast as possible, you can barely get any groceries for $100 any more used to be 5-6 bags for $100 and now it is 1-2.

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.

The city looks like a dystopia

why would you ever leave Singapore...one of the most modern, clean, and safe cosmopolitan cities in the world for Canada??? I'm Canadian and have lived in Beijing for 18 years. Much better!!

Subhanallah im watching this from Medina, after completing umrah yesterday (bus ride to and from with 2 night hotel stay for 60$ USD for my wife and I) i am moving inshallah to making Hijra here in Medina, i have my own place, watching this video i can completely relate I am born and raised and live in NYC and always comeback to Saudi every few months. Made duaa and will continue to make duaa that one day I can live here. The haramain are my main reasons, than I learned that KSA has beautiful cities, is modern, and super safe

From a european/spaniard perspective (born in the always-sunny Barcelona city), I would prefer to be dead than to live in a place where 6 months of the year are cloudy, rainy or very cold.\nThat would mean that half of my life would be wasted, thrown to the garbage bin.\nI profoundly hate snow.

That’s why I left Canada altogether and come to Toronto in summers only. Not a bad place if you spend a month or so at the harbour front. The mushroom growth of tent cities is heart breaking though ?

Sadly city is declining. This is mainly due though to the poor federal government that wants to destroy Canadian society in its quest to stay in power. No thoughts on how to sustainably grow a country foster growth and development of the economy. Providing needed housing development and health care to match population growth. The chasing of woke attitudes obstructing the development of resource industries that could provide much economic wealth has led to destruction of our once great country and making us an international joke. We have turned our backs on once good allies as we now support many terrorist states and organizations. So sad to see the decline of what was one of the best nations on earth.

I'm heading back to Brazil soon, I can't afford a house here, everyone is a f@gg0t, cities are a mess, and it goes on.

Thank you for sharing this video ❤ it really resonates with me because I am in the US born to Pakistani parents and am planning on leaving InshaAllah when the timing is good. Im single with no kids and it already worries me sending kids to public schools ? This craziness is getting only getting worse. I would love to go to an Arab country to continue practicing as a nurse bc I feel like PK isn't the safest in the cities. But im still looking at my options. It'll be interesting to see where you guys settle InshaAllah!

Wait for nusantara (indonesian new capital city) finish

I figured this was coming eventually. Canadians were known my entire life up until the last few years as jolly, mind your own business folks who didn’t mind a hockey fight but it’s really been a drastic cultural shift. I’m sure we see more of the degeneracy via social media which makes it seem bigger than it is and brings the psychos out of the woodwork but you’re right—you see more needles and prostitutes and drag shows and things targeting kids who should just be kids all the time. I haven’t considered leaving the US but I’ve moved counties and I’m preparing to do it again and get farther out from the city. It takes guts, especially if you’re going over an ocean. I’m proud of you guys for being brave enough to start over!

Aslm\nMorocco in Africa. Casablanca and surrounding cities are exactly what you need.\nWslm and much love from Cape Town, South Africa. Cape Town itself has excellent Islamic schools and an amazing Muslim Culture.

I start to wonder if there's anyone who is not struggling in Toronto unless rich? I got a well paying job, not even my own place (shared house with too many people) and a car and an estimate of 70-80% of my income is used for monthly bills. You don't even get the basics in this city without struggling. Looking for alternative but rental prices seem to be high everywhere even in Kingston and other places far away. Food prices are insane, going out has become very expensive. Don't even mention all the taxes and high car insurance rates. Feel stuck. It's a nightmare.

. This is the future and they create ill feelings wherever they go. When people want to claim back their towns and cities from Muslims they claim racism. if you look at how islam behaves you get mass migration into ountries where they initially behave, but when their numbers increase to 7%+ they start rioting demanding islamic laws ,islamic schools, courts etc. This is just the beginning. Why don't many Arab countries take in these people because they seen them as a serious problem and refuse to take them.

As someone from the US, here’s what I will say- you can find a small community or a community within a large city that will fit your needs if you look hard enough. HOWEVER, outside of that community, our larger government will never be the right fit for you, for the same reason you’ve “outgrown”Canada. “We” rarely invest in our own country and citizens, and always have “our” hands and money in other country’s affairs where they don’t belong and aren’t welcome. The government is unbelievably corrupt, out of touch, and is more focused on getting one side to hate the other side than actually making “no-brainer” steps that we all agree on to make things better for everyone. If you’re looking for a place to land for a little while I’d say a place with a Muslim community is fine, but long term your money won’t be going to places that aligns with your morals and values.

I am from Toronto. It’s gone. I love it. However it has changed economically since COVID-19. Housing is huge problem to live here renting or owning. The prices are higher than I imagined before the pandemic. \nThen since the gas prices are high and it is huge city, then it is very expensive to move around. \nElsewhere in Canada probably similar, but GTA and Vancouver are the most expensive.

Hello thanks for your information . I am aircraft maintenance technician can I find a job in that city that you mentioned ? \nThank you \nBest regars

Guys just pack your bags and come to Malaysia. There's KL, penang and JB. All big cities and it beats any western cities in my humble opinion. \n\nWe would love to have you

Your Muslim faith will soon come to an end. You cannot conquer the world with your Islamic faith. ALMIGHTY YAHWEH, the true Living Elohim of Abraham Isaac and Jacob will soon send His Beloved Son YAHSHUA MESSIAH, the Sovereign of Rulers, to terminate present world evil system and eventually will establish the righteous Kingdom of Yahweh in Mount Zion, in the city of Jerusalem, in the land of Israel! Psalm 48; Revelation 11:15; Revelation 20:6. To rule for a thousand years. \nGlory to YAHWEH Most High!\nHalleluYAH!

If you have rent control it still is a good city on the whole. I pay $963 for a large 1 bedroom with a balcony in South Etobicoke. 24 hour transit is outside my door. However I have had the place for 12 years now. if you find a rent control apt. dont give it up, thats my advice. Sub lease it discretely when you want to travel. In New York City people scour obituaries for people who die in rent control units and then bribe landlords for the place. Thats the new reality in cities like these. However Toronto is still a city with alot of up side. and on the whole safer than cities of similar size like Chicago.

William, going back to Pakistan? Which City are you going to? I live in Lahore. Wishing you and family goodness and health.

I don’t live in Toronto but travel there for work 3/4 times a year. The place has no soul. No character like Montreal or the smaller cities on the East Coast.
