These clowns just want protection just in case their home country goes south. Many come from country that doesn’t allow dual citizenship. Way to go to show loyalty to Canada.

good go home don't come back. We are not a hand out you earn what you have. Not having to deal with stupid people from India is ok with me are worst two tool makers are from there where i work stop letting them come here

I left Canada 3 years after I got the citizenship, because the cost of living was unbearable. I was living in 1 bedroom condo in Vancouver (Canada), with no cars or investment. In 2020 I found an entry lvl job at Amazon Seattle (US). My pay doubled, tax reduced by 50%. Sold my Canada condo, and bought a single family home and a car in Seattle. Never wanted to come back. \n\nPS: I lived in Toronto for 5 years, and Vancouver for 5 years.

Inflation, taxes, Trudeau’ s policy with drugs. Expat Canadian of 20 years. Returned to Canada for work and a holiday 2023. Realized my home country is now third world.

PIERRE POILIEVRE for Prime Minister ?? ? government needs to focus on canaidan citizens AXE the tax stop the crime build the Homes

Why didn’t we just keep the status quo. The country is not diverse. It’s segregated. Look at Richmond in BC, Surrey, and Brampton. This isn’t diversity it’s a home away from home.

I’m a Canadian and if I were younger I would leave. I’m now embarrassed to be a Canadian internationally and at home I really don’t know what that means except that I am labelled a racist white person who is privileged to pay a lot of taxes.

People in Toronto' cant afford a home. How are they going to affordva therapist... Blame trudeau, and harper

First, one cannot apply for citizenship after only 1 or 2 years living there.\nSecond, as for Indian nationals - they lose their Indian citizenship once any other Nationality is taken.\nThird, working for some years abroad to safe money to be in better position once back home is a not uncommon behaviour. \nAnd last, headline and video are not even linked to one another. Be more thoughtful BBC.

East West home is best

I thought you'd be saying something like 17% went back to their home country within 20 days... BRUHHH... 20 years...?? seems like they had a great time.

I lived in canada six years. Got the citizenship. Then moved back to home country. There is both social and economic problems. Realised after doing a number of jobs and getting fired, that there is selective racism, largely immigrants are an underclass (canadian experience), too expensive, high taxes. One can live with the cold weather but not cold attitudes.

Canada is one of the most beautiful countries.. there are issues in every country. Living in Canada for 13 years has been a wonderful experience. Where I live, you might reach -40 in winter at the same time you can sit inside your home wearing a t shirt. In summer, it turns into paradise. Remember both wife and Husband has to work. Otherwise stay in India.

My visa got rejected twice. I was really disappointed. Now in hindsight, i think it was for good. As the video depicts, soon Canada will be left without immigrants. Worst place to stay and have a comfortable livelihood. I think one should look closer back home. The situation is better and atleast one can be more happier in Indian anytime of the year

Lady, don’t talk about housing crisis. At least Canadian politicians ( irrespective of liberals or democrats) debate on affordable housing in parliaments. Where as Indian politicians don’t have the guts to speak about high cost of living.. Check for cost of living in metropolitan cities like Mumbai, Bangalore, Hyderabad. Indians have to shell crores of money to buy their dream homes, some of which they don’t know if the project or property has any litigations.

Theirs no prosperity in Canada anymore as you would think, big businesses,had crushed small businesses, small businesses are destroyed by red tape and high taxes, buying a home is only available to people with significant salaries and high paying job, and internet insurance, all extremely high. As a Canadian, I would leave this country, politicians are crooks, liars, controllers, it’s a beautiful country, but the governments have ruined the life living here. Politicians are such asshole bullshitters it unbelievable.

I'm so glad to finally see people talking about this issue. I'm originally from Africa, but I was raised in the US, so spent most of my life in the country (35+ yrs). And, I felt this deep loneliness even as a child. I would cry whenever we went back home to visit and it was time to go back to the US, and I would be really depressed for quite a while after getting back to the US. I never felt that life was normal, and everytime we met a new immigrant, I remember thinking to myself, even as a child or teenager that they just don't know the trap they are getting themselves into. Kudos to you for speaking up about this.

It’s nonsense! I work remote from downtown Toronto. Life is very affordable if we own our own homes and we do, as we had done well from 2000’s to 2020.

dude what is this logic that politicians don't change the politics because they might upset the home owners. Well if they don't change them they will upset literally everyone else

He is right? Why should they take on Israelis doing. Palestians know that when they are forced out, they can't return. People still carry the key to their home from the first Nakba.

Wow so powerful and beautiful at the same time! They should not have to leave their home land ❤

Too many foreign students. Too many immigrants. Canadian Engineers are selling plumbing supplies at Home Depot. Trudeau is a garbage PM.

High home prices and bleak job opportunities have produced a generation of angry isolated people incapable of making friends easily. Being a Vancouver native for 72 years allows me to see your problems from a different viewpoint. You are correct it’s a Vancouver issue about ghosting people that you will not see in Toronto Edmonton Saskatoon or Campbell River for that matter. It’s not a Canada thing just a pretentious west coast attitude.

That's good go home

There are 59 muslin countries that you can feel like in home.

Charity begins at home

He has lots of valid complaints, says life was good and stable back in Nigeria, doesn't recommend Canada to others who have stable situations back home, says we should be building Africa, says quality of life is better in Nigeria, says he faces racial discrimination in Canada, says money goes further in Nigeria, but he's... staying here? \n\nGot it.

It’s ok. They’ll all feel right at home. Poor and homeless, just like Americans do anymore. This country is sad

All what he said is fact ,I’ve been here almost 5months no job no work permit .ive done all I could .Am planning on going back home .wish I’ve watch dis video sooner .

This is an invasion of our home. We need to take it back by WHATEVER MEANS NECESSARY.

As a home owner and having lived in Canada for 43 years I don’t see myself living in Canada any longer mainly because of property taxes for owning a home .

JT screaming going to build more homes faster, means home quality will drop and in 2030's the problem will be home issues (potentially structural)

Interest rate is high which makes the home owners' lives miserable. Taxes are high and rents are through the roof. Health care is not accessible. It is high time the interest rate for mortgage payment is reduced to 3 percent.

How evil just what America needs. Send home.

These migrants are going to find the cost of living very expensive no matter where they go in the developed world , and will have to get used to it , or go home

Every Government employee thinks they are entitled people while rest of Indians are their slaves. \nDear Government employee please remember I the citizen pay your salary. So keep your pride at home while you serve Indians and India.

Enjoy your short stay folks. You will all be going home in November

I guess we did a right move. During the cold war we moved to Canada in Jan 1990 from former Czechoslovakia after spending almost 2 years in Austria to enjoy freedom. I remember renting a 3 bedroom apartment with 2 balconies in Brampton /ON for 360/M. In Mississauga 600/M for a 5 bedroom townhouse. Later on in Orangeville/ON I bought a fully detached house with a nice land with own swings and slides a swimming pool for 144 000.00. When the non stupidity in law started in 2002 we sold our house packed our things and went back to Europe. I always loved Canada as my second home but I guess the table has turned and we cherish freedom elsewhere. I am really sad about what's going on with Canada but it isn't really that hard to figure out why.

They think they can do this to our country, but don’t have the guts to do that to their politicians back home….

Justin T Wake up . he need to resign NO homes for Canadian .but refugee are coming shame

Yea, this sure helps the American people. Just what we need. How does this make my life better? Send them home, then can come together like this and fix their own country.

IF PEOPLE TRIED TO FORCE THEIR WAY INTO YOUR HOME AND DEMAND YOU TAKE CARE OF THEM AT THE COST OF YOUR OWN FAMILY...WHAT WOULD YOU DO???? WELL THE USA IS OUR HOME AND THIS IS INVASION FOLKS!!! STAND WITH TEXAS FOR YOUR FAMILY!!!!

Of course when your PM lets another country’s investors come in and buy up its land. They allow it because a 1 million $ home becomes 3 2 million dollar homes and govt then collects its taxes.

Canada has always been expensive. I moved here from Texas for my wife. This isn't the same Canada I moved to though. It's far worse. The job market is crap. It's difficult to get a job in your field. It's easy to get useless jobs that have no long term career opportunities. Real estate is atrocious. Ninety year mortgages? That's just crazy. I don't foresee owning a home in Canada. Rent has gotten so high we refuse to move. We need a bigger place, but we can't afford it. The healthcare is not good, and the wait times are ridiculous. I got better healthcare when I paid out of pocket, but under provincial insurance it's pretty bad. It also doesn't have full healthcare like the UK. At least paying for insurance in the States, everything was covered. Wages suck, benefits are generally bad or nonexistent. My wife is finally about ready to get the hell out.

OBVIOUSLY the new immigrants don't like being in Canada - after all, the country is overrun by immigration. Makes more sense to just go home.

Hope their going back home ????

I really want to exercise my right to ownership of a home too!

if people think that coming canada ur gonna live a comfort life.... maybe u dont know much about canada lol just saying... also keep in mind we have very harsh winter here.. not so comfy eh its like this for 6 months we barely have summer here spring its usually slushy coldness here.. nobody goes out anymore cause everything so expensive so we just stay home... nobody talks to anybody anymore this nation is going down hill... dont expect coming to canada and think ur gonna live the california dream here cause that is just not it.

Remember folks, we should not have taken any refugees during world war 2 when the Nazis started marching accross Europe. It's the Polish, French Czech's home afterall.\n\n-His argument

Lived here since 1966. It’s not “ Toronto the Good”. I’m lucky I got into the market in the 70s. I wouldn’t recommend moving here for all the reasons you say. Taxes are high, rents are high, crime and homelessness are high. Not a place I’d recommend for someone starting out to move here. I’ll stay here because I live in a lovely neighbourhood and know all my neighbours. It’s home.
