Because Canada is starting to sour like the US and becoming more and more anti- immigrant

Canada stopped building houses for 30 yrs, WHAT ? Wow so its all very well planned by the political leaders, the real estate mafia, the policy makers and executed systematically right under our Democratic Noses, who deserves the Award then....

I pray no Indians come to Canada ❤️ we don’t need Canada where terrorist organizations is funding the political parties who are in power and Indians are in threat or targeted in Canada.

Canada is a joke

I think Asia is the New Canada and USA. The Asian Dream!

I don't plan on retiring in Canada so feel free to turn Canada into little India........my retirement stretches further elsewhere in the World.

Biggest issue in Canada is infrastructure. Canadian infrastructure and urban planning is a copy of post war American suburbia abd the results are that it has made housing impossible as the current rules basically has abolished any construction of missing middle housing for the middle class in 90% of Canadian neighborhoods for housing. Infrastructure and services in medium and small cities are nowhere near major city hub making big city centers expensive not even mentioningthe terrible public transportation they have ( for a G7 nation is an embarrassment that their passenge rail service is 40 years behind Europe) . In addition foreign degrees even from English nations are not recognized and it takes years and resources to get accreditation.

I was surprised how cheap things were in Canada. But that’s probably also the reason people are suffering. People are paid decent wages but the currency is very weak so it’s not that much.

??? who wants to go Canada anyways besides its all cold?

SOME BELIEVE CANADA IS CURSED. THEY ARE RIGHT.

Lol, BBC is trying to put a spin on the problem with Indian nationals abusing our systems and being told no more by the Canadian public and policitians. These people were the ones working the diploma mills to get into Canada. Good riddance. Stay in India

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.

My brother, an American, married a Canadian in the early 1990s. He LOVES Canada. If I didn't have family dependent on me, I would move to Canada. Surprised anyone would want to leave Canada unless forced out.

I live in Canada. Its a disaster.

Canada has become a small petty place where selfish woke ideology trumps all. For people with options, looking to work hard, build and create, Canada is less appealing - we have many politicians playing class warfare, demonizing those that earn and succeed while praising those who prefer to belly up to a trough. I understand why there are fewer applications and why fewer creative, driven people choose to come here.

Irony to see BBC doing news on Canada ?. Clear out the log in your eyes first?

Canada is the Woke liberal capital of the world. And it’s hell on earth hence all the young folk are leaving.

1:01 Clearly he wasn't the right fit, as reporter is asking him in hindi and he is answering back in hindi whereas bbc is English channel,canada is french & English country he thought he would be able to stay without speaking english. Ridiculously thinking. 75% punjabis doesn't speak English even though they are there ??. This got nothing to do with citizenship or anything???

NOBODY WANTS TO GO TO CANADA, AMERICA, OR THE UK UNLESS ITS FROM AN ILLEGAL MIGRANT THE WEST IS FAILING LOL SOON IT WILL LOSE EVERYTHING & BECOME A CESSPIT & WHEN IT DOES I WILL LAUGH

Canada is full, the local and regional governments hold back house building so there is a shortage. Go somewhere else.

Canada shouldn't have frozen their own citizens bank accounts for exercising their rights to protest

Canada is a mess in every possible way.Quite understandable.

Canada is a great country I have be here for over half a century raised my family. The culture has changed with the times with Govt Policies put the test resulting in skyrocketing COL like food rents housing costs etc and lack of it not making Canada desirable at this time. The Cap on Foreign Students represents a \nCooling Off period for Canada which will prove beneficial in the coming years. All Indian and Foreign Students have been productive constructive ambitious and disciplined who all made a positive contribution to Canada. Times have changed and Govts will also Change with time. Keep up the good work at BBC.

Welcome to Canada ???You got tricked

Canada is becoming the shittest Country.

Well A Passport To Canada If You Live In Detroit And Is A USA citizen resoluted that employment of the city Toronto percentage of banking, employment, and temporary residence is at prospect of 40% from Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota And Illinois which means alternative coordination of conservative capitalism gross domestic earn income whether invested or earn in fiscal year is the other America unemployed population that created alternative solution for revenue gains * In other words USA population citizens migrates also it just many live alot closer too the Canadian Border than Others * theirs a potential 4.1 million US citizens and 1.7 owns their private businesses popular commodities organizations in Canada * so theirs 38 percentage favorable political sovereignty in the domestic growth of Canada from USA citizens ! The vote resolution in diplomacy will also at percentage of 100 will be held at 67 in favor of lower landscape of the Americas in Canada * which no different from Europe and North Africa or the Mediterranean Nations Union Diplomacy protocol

You guys should also introspect about India and all these topics. Such hypocrisy when it comes to India jobs, houses, avg income. Yes, it's a mess here in canada but things don't remain the same and talk more about India as well why people are leaving India from all walks of life. I'm Indian living in Canada working and living decent life and I'm grateful for everything.

3:30 \nI’m not surprised 25% of people immigrating from USA and France moved back. Those are also rich countries. Whether you live in Canada or USA is not much of a difference.

I will be coming back to India soon. Canada is becoming too expensive for me

Canada is better than USA in lots of ways...

That is great news for Canada. Please leave ASAP!

Canada and USA are absolutely garbage, we want to leave this fake liberal garbage with marginals and idiots as ASAP.

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.

Left Toronto and Canada 2 years ago. Very happily.

hopz all these Assholes has already left Canada and head to Heaven...

I do not buy this story. I was born in Canada in the 50s into a very modest farm lifestyle. I easily jumped several levels and retired wealthy. I am very happy with Canada.\nThe problem is our housing costs are super high. We are bringing people into the country faster than we can grow infrastructure. Back off on immigration for 5 years, and then we'll be fine. We also need to invest in an overtaxed health care system.\nIt is safe, rich, free and full of opportunities. Canada deserves it's place in the list of best places on the planet to live.

Will you keep a foot in Canada to continue getting your free healthcare?

Why /how could this happen to Canada, when they are bursting with lots of space, natural resources etc

This is a pay too stay in Canada ?? program ..No job..some dont go to school alot ofthem are 35 40 yeT old men who cant do anything for canada .l thought we where educating kids ..No. its fighting age men .and Terrorist

I’m Canadian, my parents didn’t have $28k to give me to go to university. So I’m sorry these ppl think that going to school in Canada is some magic ticket to a successful career making great money, but why should Canadians feel bad for these ppl? Yes u were sold a lie, that North America is some magical land of hope, it’s not, there are millions of ppl in the west who can’t afford university, and have to work their entire lives as janitors and labourers with no savings for retirement, nothing to offer their children, I don’t feel bad thst these ppl are being mislead by Canadian universities, so are we, so many college and university programs are a scam,

I respect your point. Thanks for trying Canada and goodbye.

Came to Canada from Kuwait looking for a better future. Big mistake, shouldn't have flapped my gums at work, i had a decent banking job with a career and a future. Now im stuck driving a effin truck with a bachelors degree to make slightly above average with 0 appreciation from the public, and a middle finger to say thank you for my 70 hour work weeks. I see my bed once every 3 days. I sleep next to rats and roaches in truck by the ports. Belittled by port workers and customs agents. Barked at by everyone down to a forklift driver. Looked at as lesser of a human because of the colour of my skin. What a horrible life :( My sister has already left and she was a dentist in Toronto. My mom went back ages ago. My dad is the only one wanting to stay to take care of his elderly patients, many rely on him. All i do is pay taxes and hide my money in the business, what a corrupt and horrible financial system.

Dont blame yous for leaving Canada and wish yous alot of luck and blessings take care

I find it especially funny that it's a foreign woman talking about what's going on in Canada, when it should be a pure blood Canadian that should be talking to us about it....

Cannot agree more. If anybody who is earning good , have good social life and attached to their family then should not even think once to move to Canada. These countries are good to visit for touristic purpose. Jai Shri Ram!

You don’t have to give any reasons for leaving, just do it! I’m sure no Canadian will try to stop you. You should encourage many other Muslims to go with you. Maybe you can go fight and help free Palestine, put your money where your cap is. I think it is a marvelous, wonderful ides, hopefully you can start a Caravan of other Muslims to go with you, and they can join you in this utopia you have created in your mind of this place where you are going. I’m sure Canada was perfectly fine before your great great grandparent, grandparents, or Parents decided that a Muslim country was not where they wanted to be, and what was best for them and their families, and fled from it. Take care and Don’t let the door hit you, where the good Lord split you!!!

Also, the crime rate is very high in Canada . But the state owned media does not publish these news . If the reality of Canada is known to people of India , then noby will immigrate to Canada. Canada does not want to lose billions of dollars that the indian immigrants bring to Canada . Foolish indians bringing indian money and wealth to Canada to make Canada rich .

nobody wants to live in canada anymore except for the 35 million that do.

Canada was a great country prior to Justin Trudeau's tenure. Trudeau is destroying Canada.

The answer to all these problems, is that you Canadians might be too naive, stupid or both, to never be able to, or dare to admit, that the problem is; Justin Trudeau! \nThe solution to all your problems, is to get him removed from all power, arrested and deported to North-Korea for treason. \nAs we, from the outside of Canada, can see, is that you must hate yourself, election after election, because you still elect people like the Trudeau's or some other idiot, who continue to ruin your country. \nAll I can say is; Good luck! You'll need it!
