Living in Canada for more than 33 years.\nCanada has become a country in which lazy people are rewarded and hard working people is overtaxed. Not sustainable for those hard working people. Why work hard if all gouvernements take 50% and more of your income?

So, your reasons are mainly, if not purely, religious and cultural? Not to dismiss your concerns.\n\nA word of caution - from a non-Muslim: you might be disappointed, as Muslims, to find out that not many countries afford the level of freedoms you and your family, having lived in Canada, would expect; you perhaps know it already.\n\nYou could try the Maldives, an island nation, beautiful landscape, Muslim country, with English as lingua franca. Good luck!

They immigrate to Canada to immigrate to America.

Thank you. Canada is a mess. Yet; it's still a better mess compared to other messes globally.

I agree with all the points, as a Muslim that have been raised in Europe and living currently in Canada, I always thought that Islam was stronger here than in Europe, one of the reasons why I decided to move here, until I came to see with my own eyes scary things, mostly the indoctrination part ? omg. There is nothing better than a Muslim country, my husband and I too are moving from Canada in June inshalah ? I can’t wait to raise my children in a Muslim country, my dream came true and I cannot be more grateful ? I am glad that many Muslim are moving back to Muslim counties, feeling our brothers and sisters support in this difficult journey, is priceless ❤️

high house prices is good for Canada, as house owner becomes richer, they are all Canadians, do you get it ?

Taking money out from immigrants are great for local business, immigrants buy furniture, fly Air Canada, rent local houses, eat local restaurant. Canadians are taking all the saving from new immigrants, that is great. What is your concern ???

Of course you must work 40 to 50 hrs a week to survive! What kind of statement was that?\n\nCanada needs immigration. Canada has not handled housing and immigration well.

I left Canada and won't go back. Very expensive and very poor medical care

Canada is soon going to become next pakistan of American continent ??

Let the bread be $500 I will still go there (Canada) and stay for good???wtf am I doing here in AFRICA ????

Canada is a 2 star hotel that advertises itself as a 5 star hotel. It's a $h÷t-hole. I left in 2021, and have been living a much better life since I left.

Canadian universities are going to suffer because now Canada has a bad reputation in both China and India, which are the largest sources of international students.

Well…. Look at the citizenship application process time. That is really long, and so long enough for people to find else better jobs outside of Canada.\n\nIn Canada, government officials are Crown servants not people’s servants. Except tax and else money collecting, the Government’s service standard is really low and inefficient.

Colder than my freezer lol that's canada.

You should have stay put and given canada life a chance for your children's future benefits.

In Canada half of your salary goes into rent.

Stop coming to Canada and ruining our country

Wife and I left Canada recently... As much as it hurts to say this... The juice isn't worth the squeeze there. We both had solid tech jobs.

Canada has sooo much land but like the man said, it stopped housing development 30 yrs ago. Everyone is concentrated in a few cities when they can develop more land. Citizens should get priority.

The government ruined Canada for Canadians. Mass immigration is the downfall of all great Western nations

Canada is just hyped. It's good for nothing... literally nothing. No jobs, high inflation. Skilled people have no value here. It's a doomed nation.

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.

I have lived in UK, Australia, US and Canada. I spent 2 years in UK, 1 year in Australia then moved to US for my masters where I also worked for 6 years. So total of 8 years in US, I moved to India and had adjustment issues. Then 1.5 year later I moved to Canada as permanent resident. After 2 years, I ended up leaving Canada back to India. Some people suggested wait for another 13 months and return with Canadian citizenship but I had enough. What I have realized is, for tech/scientific roles, Canada or other countries are no match for the US. \nAlso, Americans are much kinder and open than people in Canada/UK/Australia. All these countries are expensive, quality of work and pay is not good. I was getting 150K CAD in Canada, where I pay 2100 CAD as 1 BHK rent. In India, I make 90K CAD and 2 BHK rent is 400 CAD. To me, America has no replacement, that's why people dont want to leave the US. I was not willing to spend whole life waiting for green card, and other countries are no match for US. That's why came back to India fro second time, despite the issues here.

Lived in Canada entire life. If no change in Government next election, will do everything in my power to leave. Basic rights are gradually being taken away with new laws, cost of living means I will never be able to retire, and little support for public health. The cold weather makes life miserable.

This is such a badly researched report from BBC. The title of the video talks about citizenship applications dropping but they provide no data to back it up even if it's true. Then they only go to Punjab and talk to a student who left Canada before they became a PR. So that's irrelevant to the story. Then a chunk of the report is about the international student cap which in no way reduces current citizenship applications. The report should only concentrate on PRs leaving the country or choosing to not apply for citizenship. They only had one example of that in the whole video. Also interview PRs from other places other than Punjab. The story might be the same but it's good to know.

Canada doesn’t need immigrants

There is only ONE problem in Canada ??…Justin Trudeau

Is canada will not take immigrants seriously, it will fall drastically. Politicians and planners here are worst in the world. Canada is racist, it does not allow people to jokn their workforce as they know new immigrants are far more capable from them.

I was from Singapore, came to Canada only to come back to Singapore. This is the social issue the country is facing, demand of housing has grown rapidly fast while there is not enough house being built.

In Canada you stay poor after doing two jobs you own nothing only eat good if you don't buy car

TURD ? EAU has destroyed a beautiful country like Canada ??

Crazy that. They reduce the rights of the citizens to the point they might as well be British. They allow crime to skyrocket as you watch drug use become a public activity similar to San-Francisco. Its not the Canada i remember being in 10 years ago.

Why would anyone want to live in Canada now day's

Maybe because Canada cannot protect its citizens. Recently a Canadian from Indian Punjab was murdered by India because of his political affiliation. Severely undermines Canada as an option.

Much of what's wrong in Canada would also apply to Australia. I think NGOs like the WEF have interfered in business for years deliberately making them less competitive. That's been the plan since the 1950s. Collapse world economies for an easy takeover.

Living here for 15 years, I'm not sure what she is saying ....?you take any list on the internet on the top 10 countries to live in.. and Canada will be there?. This girl is just pulling shenanigans!!

Canadian born citizens are also leaving..the federal government over past 30 yrs have destroyed canada and have become corrupt by globalists

It’s a trap! When canada dont need immigrant simply order to higher tax ?

In 2004 I wrote a somewhat famous article called 'Top 8 reasons not to immigrate to Canada'. In short, the Canadian authorities tried to destroy my life. They made it so that I could not be employable in Canada. So I moved to the U.S. in 2005 and then some years later I moved permanently to the Philippines. I am happy that so many years later videos like yours are saying essentially the same things that I did. I was ahead of my time. I will never go back to Canada. Not to live, not to visit, not even a connecting flight. Too cold, too expensive, taxes are astronomical, no freedom, no jobs, no opportunities, xenophobic people, too depressing. It has become the North Korea of the western world.\n\nTheir are many reasons why Canada has fallen apart. But the number one reason is ‘multiculturalism’. My friends, multiculturalism simply does not work. Different cultures do not come together and mix, different cultures come together and clash. The world is divided into different countries for a reason: because people hate each other and only want to be with their own kind. The number two reason for Canada’s demise is ‘socialism’. In this modern era of aging populations, it is mathematically impossible for socialism to continue. The government does not have the money to take care of old people and provide healthcare, pensions and the various other benefits, even with the astronomical taxation that burdens hard working Canucks. Well Canada, you had a good run. Time for Canucks to move to an emerging country. We welcome you here in Southeast Asia.

Justin trudeau has made canada a haven for terrorists

All of Canada's current problems is caused by a certain communist in the prime minister's office since 2015.

I am sickened by all the negative comments and it further demonstrates exactly how they must feel in Canada, I would welcome them in a heart beat to live next door but we have a very small Muslim community and they would not feel comfortable here either. Best wishes and safe travels.

Immigrants who leave Canada do not have good job or income. They are not employed full time or simply underemployed (at minimum wage). Usually, they try for good job in other countries, such as GCC Countries or - come back to India and get involved in family business.

Canada is Mexico, with nicer buildings.

Canada is NOT and will NEVER be a muslim country nor an islamic caliphate. Thank you for leaving.

I have never been to Canada, but I have seen it on a map several times.

Leaving Canada so that your daughters will have more rights in a middle eastern country? Hope this is a joke

Thank you Aunty Seyi ? You are the best❤❤❤Please my best friend who is a PR is inviting me to Canada and he said I should apply for visitors visa and he is willing to help me with anything (bank statement and reference letter) or documents I need and he talked about an invitation letter also that he can write that. Please how can I go about this? Thank You so much as I await your response ❤ GOD bless you ma ??

I remember the good o'l days before 2015 when every thing was great in Canada yeah it was a little expensive but it was not too bad and you got good services. Now we live in a time where every thing is worse and more expensive. God I miss Canada
