A few years ago I got job offer to work in Canada, it looked attactive in the beginning until we went over the offered wage which was slitghly above my income working in the US, the issue came up when I saw how much I would get net in my pocket after taxes, social security, etc, the amount was lower to my net income at that time, and comparing the higher cost of life in Canada (home rent, grocery, utilities, etc) vs USA, oh man!!, I had to turn it down. I cannot imagine how expensive it is to live in Canada these days, but for sure it must be a way higher. I kind understand why this decline of citizenship applications is happening.

I'm so confused. is that in India or Canada?

These migrants did not really study their move and what would happen in Canada , and they now have to pay the price

Honestly, Canada used to be heaven, but ever since Trudeau brought in all these second class people, Canada has gone to hell.

The brains are still Arabic middle eastern Canada and they have the education and talent to speak. Now talking against a wonderful country people love to leave..

sorry for both of you… but thankx to god Australia is having a strong and tough immigration system … As i am here in Canada here they have given PR to lots of illiterate and useless people you face everyday ??

So sad Canada accept you people and u spit in face.

Canada banega Khalistan ???

Don’t come to UK, stay in Canada, it’s the same here.

International students coming to Canada should budget properly for tuition fees, housing and living expenses. There are too many stories of destitute international students living under a bridge or using the local food banks for subsistence.\n\n\nCanada should not be granting student visas unless they can demonstrate financial means to afford their education. Many international students come here and work part-time to partially subsidize their education. \n\nIt is not fair for Canada to help subsidize international students.

Wow, my first time of seeing ur videos. I want to relocate to Canada but the agent is asking for 7000$ which is giving me headaches. How can I enter with a visitor visa but I have a duo intent as u mention ?. Pls help me, a sister from another mother, I'm a ok so from chokor, 31st area

?? canada is good for labour not for educated... you need certification even after you are phd, you need pr and experience after have phd. no jobs for outsiders. only you can apply as labour with minimum salary

Indian political agenda to criticize Canada Indirectly ? Indian political parties sponsored channel. FYI please...there are still long queues from the world to come in Canada. Lol

And yet…I wouldn’t want to live anywhere else! If you think this is bad, you should travel more often and see what’s around, you may appreciate what we have here in Canada.

Ive lived in Canada my entire life, and I am desperate to leave the country to make a better life for my family. The sad thing is, I dont see how I will ever be able to afford to leave. With two jobs working seven days a week, I cannot afford to pay all of my bills every month. I dont even own a house.

Canada's economy suck!!!!!!!!!! I heard from many immigrants that Canada is boring and feels like a jail.

People from all over Canada are moving to Alberta , Calgary in particular. The cost of living is less than Ontario, Quebec and BC. The proximity to the mountains is great. Calgary is a beautiful city with great neighborhood’s and parks. The technology sector is attracting a large number of companys to Calgary because of the reasons above but also because the work force is one of the youngest and most educated,mainly because of the training for the oil and gas sector. Being just over an hour from one of the most beautiful national parks in the world doesn’t hurt. Banff National park. Also with access to many summer vacation spots in south and central BC. All these things make Calgary a great place to live. Alberta also has many other cities and towns worth checking out. With a competent and caring provincial leader in Danielle Smith, Alberta’s future is looking bright.

No more immigration. We have had enough of such folks, in Canada, now

I was born and raised here. I am doing my exit plan as I cannot afford to live here as young-adult living on my own. The government knew exactly what they were doing when they allowed 9 million people to come here in a short amount of time. How can you provide billions for foreign aid but can't provide basic necessities to your own citizens? I have cut EVERYTHING extra out of my life and even while working a full-time job I cannot survive in my own country. Canada is a country for the elite, cliche style immigrants, and for the ultra wealthy who pass down intergeneration wealth. A failed health care system that provides little to no services at which you pay out of pocket to get access with private health care providers. You can't depend on transit as it is the mercy of the corrupt transportation/commissioners aka unions and the cost of gas is out of this world. I AM SO LUCKY I went to university and graduated when I did because the same degree would have cost 15k-20k more...food is super expensive...renting an apartment is seen as a form of luxury....you have to know someone to get basic things done. What a shameful society...a society that treats immigrants with upmost respect only to turn around looking the other way when it comes to homelessness...the housing crises...lack of employment oppts, gosh I can go on. My brother was lucky enough to move to Dubai and cash in on his savings by investing it into his properties where he pays 0 tax on his salary from his job.

Canada sucks now

Indians do come to Canada . Stay where you are . Stay in India . Do not come to Canada . There is nothing for you here .

Indians do come to Canada . Stay where you are

It's interesting that immigrants are choosing to leave Canada whereas migrants are staying..

I wish I could afford to immigrate out of Canada

I lived in Canada for 13 years, left in 2020 for England. Really sucks because I loved Canada so much but the prices are INSANE. Would love to move back but at this rate idk if that’s happening anymore

Yeah the rentals are like 1800 a month to 2K for 1 bedroom - or 2400 a month for 2 bedrooms; while 3 to 4 bedrooms - cost like almost 2 million dollars in Toronto; yeah it some places go to minus 30/40/50 Celsius - and if you go rural for cheaper prices you kind of pee behind the bushes and no gas station for like 200km; Canada is for carpenters, hunters and fishers/ survivors it's not for weak hearted unless you got a few million dollars in your account;

Canada has become a 3rd world shithole.

From Lebanon, i send peace wishes to Canada.

I have been to Canada couple of times now. It's basically a little India outside India. Same as England.

The had doubled the amount the persons who come to Canada. It is the consequence of persons protested against the Canadian administration. I assume they forgot it was foreign country and they are not true citizens of the country.

Maximam Indian pepole apply citizenship applications Canada , USA and UK . Even British Prime minister Risi Sunak is also came from India

As a natural born Canadian, it's turned into a corrupted shit show, and I too plan to leave. Not only is Trudeau and liberals corrupt, but the cost of living and stagnant wages is rediculous. This government has opened excessive immigration since 2016, and its hurt this country. Do not move to Canada.

DISCRIMINATION IS NORMAL,ONCE YOU LEAVE THEY WILL BE MORE RACIST. IF YOU STAY THEY BECOME LESS RACIST. COME TO CANADA.

I hope Punjabis leave Canada and go back to Punjab to make the great nation they are dreaming of. I wonder why they still live in Canada if they want Khalistan.

ONly people who thrive in Canada is political liars, criminals and scammers Canada has suffered from Doug Ford and Justin Trudeau, Funny part alot of the homes are owned by China, they're massive and over priced, best part of it all....their own people screw their own with rent.

Ya Canada has gone downhill under Trudeau. We need Pierre Poillevre NOW

Canada isn’t the land what people dream of, in fact its the opposite.

People are still flocking to Canada. True, it a very expensive, beauracratic, laid back country. But it is better than 95% of other places.

Khalistani terrorists and Mr Justin made Canada a hell for everyone

Thank God from canada

Canada always was COMMUNIST COUNTRY!!!

This story is misleading and the Title is completely false. Canada's Student population doubled in 3 years and Canada went from 7th highest Foreign Student Population per capita to 2nd, so the Canadian Student housing situation worsened quickly. So the Trudeau Government put a cap on Foreign Students and offered low interest loans to Universities to immediately expand Student housing. Canada has seen NO drop in citizen applications and still refuses far more applications then it approves. So with even Canada's low birth rate still combined with immigration Canada's population is the fastest growing per capita of Western Democracies at an annual population increase of over 1 million people a year. So the Headline about Citizen applications which had nothing to do with the story of Foreign Students.\nAlso I want to add they stated that the gentleman had set up a business to bring home students from Canada when in the interview he stated that Canada was only one of the Countries but stating it the true way is less dramatic and doesnt fit their Narrative. Also the story was clipped from India a Nation that has been ata diplomatic war with Canada for a year after their Government Murdered a Canadian Landed Citizen. So their Governement put out a warning for their Citizens going their amongst other revenge moves. So the story has so many outside bias to be sensible.

Canada is very expensive and its hard to find affordable housing, healthcare is slow, groceries are very expensive and services are very expensive, taxes are high, transit infrastructure in Toronto is ridiculously behind other world cities. You need a car to survive in Canada and gas and insurance is very expensive. Childcare is too expensive. Clothing is limited and expensive

Good! That will help with the housing & employment crisis’ and tripled inflation. Trudeau destroyed Canada by recruiting too many minions.

Canada uses Newcomers to pay pensions of old Europeans through tax

I'm Congolese born and raised in France left Toronto after 5 years to go back to Paris because \n- Cost of living \n- Cost of becoming a house owner \n- Dry Dating game \n- Workaholic culture\n- Not seeing myself building my family far away from my family\n - 6 month winter \nI love Canada tho, was a great experience ??and I did apply for a citizenship tho

I think Canada will be just fine without new Indians.

It’s actually been my plan to go to Canada for a few years now, it’s a shame how the Trudeau has destroyed it. I wanted to do my masters at McGill, and still do but if the situation there doesn’t improve it just won’t be worth my time. I don’t wan to stay in the UK but I may as well stay in France or go to Australia.

I still can't get over the fact that some of my friends still treat Canada as the holy grail, tsk tsk even I can see that that country is going out in shambles

I came here in 1996, but its so expense to live in Canada. I am looking to move somewhere its cheaper
