Personally I want to move to Canada I would love to live there but just don’t know

Canada is so cliquish even to white people

I have been living in Canada for over Half a Century. The Times have certainly changed over the years. I am a citizen of this great country and raised a family here. Agree Food Housing Rents etc have skyrocketed like most countries. Economic times have changed over the years and Canada needs Leadership to encourage our younger generation of a better tomorrow waiting for them. Keep up the good work at WION

Property tax and car insurance make it near impossible to retire in Canada. I Australia You pay ONLY 20% of THOSE CANADIAN PRICES. AND WHEN YOU RETIRE YOUR, BILLS ARE REDUCED SUBSTANTIALLY. AND WHAT IS THE REASON WHY CANADIANS DONT INVITE YOU TO YOUR HOME. THE ARE HAPPY TO COME TO YOUR HOUSE BUT NEVER make an effort to initiate or return the invite.

It is not fair to blame canada alone, canada is the backyard of usa, while the usa is declining, canada can't make exceptions

Why are you so concerned about Canada. ? Is everything rosy back home . ? How can you people live with such biasness in your mind .

Mass immigration is destroying our country. Rent and food is completely unaffordable. We cannot accept anymore immigrants in Canada. Enough is enough.

Earn in Canada maybe Australia, but spend in India. In Canada, you cant buy shit for 20,000$ but in India you can live LUXURY life for 2 years. Choice is EASY. *INDIA IS BEST* Pr in Canada CITIZEN OF INDIA

I will be leaving Canada this October. A country where its citizens cant afford home, food, or basic necessaties should not be called developed country anymore.

Good. Canada has gotten away with exploiting labour from other countries for far too long. It’s a total scam.

??? Let me get this straight, they migrate to Canada, and then they protest when they don’t get things their way? Wth?

When they talk about Canada! Immediately showing Punjab ???? ??‍♂️??‍♂️??‍♂️

CANADA HAS CHANGED... and not for the better.

Canada reputation is as bad as America.

Reason is simple 3 years ago, canada closed its borders. The transition time from Permanent Residence to Citizenship is 3 years.

Like any other country, Canada is not for everyone. I am an immigrant who acquired Canadian Citizenship recently. I live in a good neighborhood with a decent house. There are many like me. Your own numbers, 17.5% immigrants left. Okay. But 83% lived and even if many are considering at least 70% are happier.

I hate to disagree to most comments on this Video. Canada is still one of the best countries to live, work and raise your family. As a pakistani immigrant myself, having lived in Dubai, Saudi, and UK, I still find Canada easily the best overall.\n\nWhen it comes to hardships, yes you must have a positive mindset to survive in Canada but ofcourse you pay the price of living your Canadian dream. \n\nIf you are a couple with a household income of 10K take home, you can still live an extremely good life in Canada. But again, its a game of patience and perseverance. Canada is not for faint hearts and negative minds. \n\nGod bless us all

Liberal PM Cretian was elected in 1993. He ended the Federal housing programs, and shifted the responsibility for building social housing to the provinces. Of course the provinces did nothing in response. The municipal governments put in a lot of regulation, I suppose to protect the environment, and NIMBY. Home builders only built profitable homes, which were tiny condos in towers. The risks and rewards were pushed onto the private sector, meaning only the rich could participate in the overheated housing market. Then the PRC decided to start a global plague via a badly managed bioweapons lab, causing massive inflation across the planet. The problem is complex, because humans are too stupid to manage the planet properly. Canada is just a symptom of human overpopulation and idiocy.

Canada is another word for scam.

Poor Australia, the parasites will now be targeting them now Canada is a husk

No one in their right mind would choose Canada over the United States.

I love Canada, moved here 20 plus years ago, worked like a dog full time and studied full time at university. Lived in rotten basement for years. Got education, now live in a comfortable life.

Good......the lie and government propaganda make it sound like Canada is the promised land. Canada is on the decline, broken government and has no identity. Many native born Canadians are leaving as well.

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.

Canada sucks under Trudeau.

SOME BELIEVE CANADA IS CURSED. THEY ARE RIGHT.

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.

Trudeau has made canada rotten

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

People who come to Canada after receiving their PR struggle way too much. When you apply for a job here, they require you to have 1 year of Canadian working experience. How does someone fulfill that criteria if they've just landed in a new country? The government should instead open PR for only blue-collar jobs, which are actually in high demand. The whole immigration program otherwise feels like a scam. You shouldn't be getting any points for your educational and professional qualifications in the application when, in reality, it's not going to help you afterward. Most of the people I know here are planning a relocation because they don't see themselves owning a house anytime soon.

Thank you Canada but no thank you, such high cost of living and working all day long for nothing. Rather be in India.

Many consider citizenship as more of a curse. \nNo Thanks to Canada's woke prime minister whose main objective is to promote DEI people into his cabinet, however incompetent they are. \nAnd with limited jobs, very high cost of living and services that suck,...

Canada is so cold !

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.

Re Indian students as a former teacher I have to also say that many Indian students coning here are lacking the basics. I also found that students educated in US states like Florida and Texas were around two grades behind. Many Indian studenrs here have high expectations but poor background and inadequate English language skills. It is a shame that people are getting into Canada with false documentation and credentials. Also they are enrolling in very dubious schools and it is no surprise that they find life here very difficult. Hopefully the Canadian government will take greater care to see that only suitable candidates are allowed to come to Canada as students. Also students from other countries should avoid coming here if they don't really have sufficient skills and should make sure that they are choosing reputable educational institutions. There are lots of private institutions with fancy names. Don't be fooled.

Regardless of all the mud-slinging in the comments, I strongly advise any prospective immigrants to Canada to consider their situation/ aspirations seriously before making the move to Canada. While Canada is indeed a beautiful country, especially from spring to fall, there is no doubt that it has fallen behind severely in recent years. This is a massively underperforming country and people (Canadians and immigrants alike) are struggling big time. There is a massive leadership problem in Canada, where trivial problems get 99% of the attention. Real problems (which are easily solvable by the way) get little to no attention at all. Either there is very little will or the current administration is simply incompetent. Either way, some structural changes need to happen before Canada can recover.

That is great news for Canada. Please leave ASAP!

Wow, it really seems wages in Canada are not living wages

USA+Canada\n~20millions km² ~400millions people, gdp ppp ~35trillions $... Go live together

I am lucky that I was able to return to India in 2010, for good though it was not planned that way. Thank God. Canada does not want stand up people of color. Its Immigration Department and embassies are used to spread fake propaganda around the world but You Tube is the savior to many. Cdn. Official media is silent. God Bless for this vdo. Karma !!!!

There are too many Asians in Canada now!

Left Toronto and Canada 2 years ago. Very happily.

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.

Canada is in moral decay, no doubt about it. I'm eastern orthodox and the things being pushed in canada today I also find disturbing. Peace and health to you and your wife, ☦️?☪️.

The coldest City in Canada would be Thompson if it is still Registered as a City. Queen Elizabeth flew into Thompson in 1967 and declared it a City. At the time Thompson had a Population of 25000 . From there they had a Motorcade go through The Pas,Swan River,Dauphin and on to Winnipeg.

Canada needs to protect itself

Nothing new this is Canada under Trudeau this is communist China

Good bye\nPlease do not return\nYou guys choosing authoritarian countries vs Democratic countries\nPlease do not come back. We do not need someone who does not like Canada
