All this video has covered is the SYMPTOMS, not the root of the problem.\nThe reality is CANADA is not and has never been a real country.\nIt is a region above the USA owned by about 5 banks and their partners. (Insurance giants, real estate giants, and Gordon food services)\n\nThe government is owned by those banks too. \n\nWhat you see unraveling now is simply every big banks wet dream for real.

WHERE are municipal politicians supposedly limiting the construction of homes? I don’t see it. \n\nWe are aware that there are regulations in place to protect buyers and that self-serving industries lobby to do away with, as those protective regulations can reduce profits. Some provincial governments (like Alberta) are highly sympathetic to lobbies and industries, to the detriment of citizens. \nWhy are you not pointing to the fact that successive federal governments of the past stopped funding the construction of lower cost housing (thereby creating more demand AND our number one problem of unmitigated greed throughout the real estate and home building industries? We have some people in government attempting to get more low cost homes built while industries know that they can make more money building houses that are far, far bigger than people NEED. Dumbasses and keep-up-the-Jones folks unwisely buy these homes and then many of them have difficulty affording a lifestyle that they think they are entitled to. Meanwhile, lower income earners have been priced right out the market. Of course, capitalists and real estate investors like Pierre Poilievre will never admit that these are our actual problems. Regulating the construction and real estate industries could have gotten a lot more homes built in higher density for young and lower income Canadians, as well as for our newcomers. \n\nToo much blind and poorly informed anger, selfishness, and foolishness going around. Canadians of the past who pulled together during world wars would call us weak and entitled.

it’s not just happening in Canada. It has happened to many countries, and people are suffering whether in real estate, rental properties, or public healthcare system etc. So getting out to other countries probably won’t do much help now….BTW, electricity bill just went up 30 percent recently in ??

Arab states dont want trouble makers that the real reason they wont take palastinians

Immigrated hear 30 years ago - happy with my experience. Strongly disagree with probably six out of your nine reasons (e.g. you can buy real estate with only 5% down, not 20%, etc.). Weather IS bad but everybody knows that.

They want to start a problem between Palestinians and their Arab brothers, but told who is the real problem THE OCCUPATION edit!!!!!!!!!!!

So intelligent … straight to the real thing… I love it

He made a world of excuses when he couldn't admit the fact that Every Arab country before this war has tried to help Palestinians and they have revolted and did killings when they helped them in their own countries and now THEY KNOW BETTER and won't do it. Now that's facts! Be REAL!

They try to impose islamic law and religion in a christians countries, if any christian just talk about Christ in islamic country his life will be in real danger. Ingland have to close all musque and expel every muslim from their country as soon as possible.

Except for healthcare, everything else in this video applies equally to Australia. Housing bubble brought on by mass immigration and government complicity with the real estate sector to hinder supply in order to artificially inflate prices (higher property prices equals more transaction taxes for government and more commission for agents), monopolies/duopolies, reliance on exports of resources & primary products for export earnings, artificially-high fuel prices, all resulting in an increasingly poor & disillusioned middle & working class.

dont come here. its a real trap.

100%. Canada will keep losing its top talents and top-quality immigrants to the US in the forthcoming years. BECAUSE the Canadian system does not invest in innovation, research, or technology rather they would make money off of the scam real estate market by selling overinflated real estate keeping the supply limited, and accepting desperate refugees here and there in hundreds of thousands. There is almost a communist market in Canada, all supermarkets, mobile phone companies, and internet companies, airline companies are in the hands of a few privileged families. There is limited competition and often they decide the price of anything without any competition. Result: a flight within Canada is more expensive than a flight from Canada to Spain. Everything is 3 times more expensive and people suffer. They sell an empty jar of Nutella as the Canadian dream. In the end, Canada will end up with people who have no other choice but to live in Canada and have limited potential to propel the country's innovation which is sad. It's inevitable! and It's too late already!

I live in Brazil and we have almost all these issues. Most of these problems happens because of systemic questions in all the country around the world, citys planning for cars, real estate market completely dominated for super riches and Great fortunes operating without any kind of control. Canada still is one of the best countries to live.

It's a real drag... I have a high paying job, and live a pretty frugal life, and even I'm having trouble making ends meet. I bought my house for $150k, and now it's work 600... how are my adult children supposed to even survive in this environment?

This man don't know the history of who's land it is. Secondly he has evaded the real question which is obviously no.

I can see the validity of al the points but lets be real, the median income in Ontario is 46k.

the Canadian government would rather give free quality of life and opportunities to immigrants, rather then real Canadian born individuals

What I liked about this video is the explanation associated with the problem. For example why politicians are reluctant to allow construction of new houses, reason for monopoly in market. Mostly people only talk about symptoms and not real reasons behind those symptoms. Worthy to watch video.

Canadian health care is good for the basic things but if the poop hits the fan and your condition is more serious America with insurance wins. If they diagnose you with a tumor in let's say May the give you a prescription to slow it's growth and maybe they can pencil you in for October to remove it (real story). Over the last 2 years thousands of Canadians have taken the Government option of doctor assisted suicide.

too sad, too real

Something that many people fail to realize is that a huge majority of money laundering in Canada is done through real estate. There are tons and tons of empty homes, some that have been that way for over a decade, due to organized crime.

Many cash rich investors from Ukraine, Russia, Israel, and China. The first three well known as to where their money is coming from and why they are fleeing war torn regions. Most of Ukraine and Israel is funded by US government institutions but Russia’s emigrants have left Russia due to disagreements with how Russia is being administered. China mainlanders parking investing money into Canada in order to cater for future immigration and future education needs for their kids and others that wish to follow.\n\nCanada, like Hawaii, Miami, and Las Vegas are experiencing overinflated housing investors willing to pay the asking cost for the real estate. Like the rest of the planet, many of the newer generation tend to flock to warmer regions of the planet. The other areas that experience the housing Price shocks are places also where foreign students tend to flock to, especially those from Asian nations like China.\n\nCanada’s BC Vancouver, Edmonton, Manitoba, and Calgary tend to cater to willing Indian, Pakistani, Central Asian, Hong Kong Chinese, Singapore, Japanese, Malaysian, and Taiwanese parents willing to spend big money to educate their kids in Canadian English language programs that the Canadian governments organized with educators. \n\nSpending well over five figures a year in order to educate these young kids to grasp English and eventually have a pathway to citizenship like South Africa’s Elon Musk. The CCP was Party to these programs till Xi’s second term of rule and the huge budget deficits occurring due to the transference of Chinese domestic spending happening overseas especially in Canada and Australia caused the CCP to stop this growing deficit in household spending within the Chinese domestic economy. They couldn’t allow these newly minted millionaires to raise their kids like elite CCP party members families and friends. \n\nThey tried to stop it, but the Canadian taxpayers raised complaints about soaring property, and income taxes to their politicians and it’s slowed this process down but loopholes still exist and it is still occurring. \n\nThe top party leaders of China sending their kids to expensive European and USA institutions such as Xi’s children especially his Harvard / Oxford educated daughter, whose fiancée is a British citizen involved in all trades, China’s evolving EV industries! Move on over Elon, a new competitors in town due to some big connections within the CCP party.\n\nCanada housing is overinflated for the next several decades.

Real jews from time of prophet muhammad are no longer their are only talmud followers now.

This is what real leadership looks like. Western democracies have not seen it in quite some time.

What an outrageous question ! She is not concerned by the horrific atrocities taking place in Gaza and in the Westbank against the Palestinians ! They are being slaughtered, arrested and humiliated, deprived of food and water ! Iz Not Real is besieging and slaughtering the Palestinians. They need to live in peace, they don't want to leave their land ! They have the right to defend themselves from the occupation, from the oppression and from the continuous humiliations they have been subjected to for 75 years !

Immigrants come in and get 5 star treatment, free money, housing, medical coverage, while real Canadians are set back. Bring in Immigrants but make sure they are self sufficient and don't suck off the system.

Fake china money laundering filth money into vancouver real estate

Similar situation in Australia. During Covid, real estate agents were asked by the Federal Government to freeze rent as a lot people were being stood down from their jobs. Now that pandemic is over, rent has gone up significantly. Our rent is going up by $70 a week in the year.

Nimbys and bad zoning laws are the real problem.

But do people not understand that Palestinians don’t want to leave their homeland? If they do they know that they’re never being able to go back. Israel should stop occupying their land, displacing them and murdering them out. And the people need to stop blaming Hamas because we all know who the real villain is. A group of orphans that fight for their rights are not terrorists. Applyign that logic makes Mandela a terrorist, the Jews of the ghettos in Warsaw is WWII terrorist and that just simply not right..

Saudi government is a friend with israel behind the scenes، they just say these bcz of their ppl who really support palestinian ppl , in the reallity the only country that is help real actions is Iran

Wow, cnn reporting on some actual news.\nWay to go cnn, keep up the real work. It’s about time you report the truth!\nQUESTION ALL AUTHORITY ALL THE TIME.

This present time Arabs are not a real momin they are just trying to wash their hands because its seemed as fugitives

The weight has to be lifted by Hamas returning the hostages and stopping them from using their very own people as human shields and fulfilling their agenda to fill their pockets with billions He sounds like an intelligent man — does he not see the real solution here? This is a clever answer to make sure that the Palestinians don’t inconvenience other Arab nations isn’t it obvious that no one wants them? Where is the brotherly love?

Thats the real point.. Thank you man

The real Jewish ppl who live in Palestine says its Palestinians land and we understand that and live peacefully. They dislike the IDF the police for the way they get treated for supporting the Palestinians.

Stop buying stuff from the west and East simple.All Muslims need to stop buying stuff anything and everything from the west and East and show real power.

stupid questions ,are those reporters real ?.. do you leave your home to go somewhere else …

This guy is the most serious Youtuber I've ever met. I'm even surprised why I'm just seeing him. What a reality real man. Good work bro. Keep it up.

High cost of living - taxes, ridiculous real estate market, lower pay, little to no summer (all of it spent under construction) terrible drivers and a government at the root of it all and chunk of the population that feels obligated to vote for that terrible government because of their LGBTQ+ě%#@>; status or that are looking for handouts.

It still does not answer the Real Question. Why are Arab countries enmasse not breaking ties with Israel and even the USA.

GOOD NEWS FOR PEACE! On real news channels you can hear that Hamas leaders are now turning on each other due to collapse. Israel might end their peace campaign in just a few months more, not the years we all thought GREAT NEWS FOR PEACE! ??❤️

The real action why teh Arab not take action in military forces???

Absolutely ? keep it real and keep it ? ? ?

The real question is why don't isrel people go to us or any other west country as refugees?

Israeli are real refugee

These people are the real enemies of Islam

A lot of these are rich country problems. Which is why we get such a huge number of immigrants from developing countries. Ans almost none from developing ones. Only about 10,000 a year from the USA compared to over 300,000 a year from developing ones. But while I returned to Canada before I retired to care for my elderly mother, I had been approved for a green card in the USA. I lived in LA for 10 years. But my very low out of pocket cost of medical care still makes Canada attractive to me. \n\nBut my kid who was 13 when I moved to the USA, stayed there when I returned to Canada. They have had a green card for 11 years and is soon to become a US citizen. They and their spouse would like to move to Canada but simply cannot make anything like a similar net income in Canada. \n\nBut the housing crisis here is very real for many people.

Australia is almost a carbon copy of its Commonwealth brother. Mineral and resource rich, a bloated and over valued housing sector, record immigration and downward pressure on real wages have all led to making it increasingly difficult to get by. \nSydney and Melbourne are both in the top 10 most expensive residential real estate markets in the world. Governments have a vested interest in making real estate high and unaffordable and this has now led to a rental crisis which is leading to homelessness and people living in cars.

if western countries have real democracy,\njust use your voting rights to elect politicians who will make positive changes
