I am not argue with the narrator of this video. It is his preconceived notion of what is good living. But I am living in Manitoba for more than 40 years and I really really love it. I raise my kid here and they were educated here. I have no regret living in Manitoba even if I came from a tropical country. This is home and impact a happy home for us. I visited other province also but nothing I can compared to Manitoba. Manitoba is where my hearts are and will be forever.

400,000 new Canadians in one year is a huge number compared to the population !?\nWas the government prepared for this number?!\nAnd we'd still wondering why we are in jobs, health care and housing crisis !?

If you want , you can recruit regular people with no profession, but don’t recruit people who spent years at school and when they are her, they don’t even worth a high school student. I hope Most people leave this country to go somewhere else for more opportunity, like USA.

Been living in canada for 7 years, have master's degrees in education from American, still have not recognized as a teacher in canada. THATS WHY WE (NEW CANADIANS) LEAVE CANADA

Conservative Canadians hate immigration, so this will be good news for them. Years of Harpo's policies are paying off.

My immigration process took 14 years in total until I could get here, it was a blessing and I had a lot of gratitude to be here after living in a warzone. Ive lived in Winnipeg for 10 years, a part of me was always happy and okay to deal with the cold because at least nobody would be killing you or attempting to on a daily basis, with rockets and bombs. 10 years later, I was wondering that the only reason we came here was to escape war, and not find a better quality of life. You can tell me “you don’t like it then leave” but i find it disturbing that many Canadians here don’t recognize how bad the situation gets, when governments don’t do anything to enhance quality of life and corporates take control everywhere and raise the costs to unbelievable numbers. Housing crisis, most can’t afford houses or even rent a nice apartment. Healthcare system is a complete dogshit mess, people here don’t recognize the importance of how much this industry needs to be supported by governments and citizens because EVERYONE benefits from it and stay alive longer. I don’t know man, I only see it collapsing going forward, especially when everyone is divided and the aboriginal issues are a constant trend.

If it wasn't for family I would have been gone 2 years ago.

Nowadays, Indians are every where.. the truth, they work smart, not hard working.. I hate to see what Canada would look like in few more years. It will soon turn to be an extension of India...

I be gone already ,? I can't afford to leave after 40 years ? to broke ,and my pension? Does not permit me to live outside of Canada ? . It's ok 400,000 thousand new Immigrant,s are coming ?

Man this gets me mad we are starving here Close the borders for 10 years

Why do you think..trudy has let the entire populous of India into Canada in three years and he isn't close to finished. He has built a new lower / middle class tax paying slave force.

Simple Answer to the title: This is not the Canada of 10 years ago or 20 years ago. The dream is dying on multiple levels

my family left their country after ww2 and went to canada and buildt a great life....i was born there and 47 years later i went back to their birth place and now i have a better life.....i miss canada and i lost everything moving....but my kids deserve a fair shot at life...canada literally offers NOTHING TO FAMILIES...JUST POLICE CHILDREN'S AID, HIGH TAXES AND TRANS TEACHERS....being a tax payer in canada means nothing now.

Great... Nice to hear.\nJust a quick question.. I'm 43 years old. Kindly inform me ages an issue to find the job or settle in Canada ? \n\nKindly update with regards that...\nThank you in advance... have a great day ?

Narendra Modi government has completed construction of Ram temple so 48,500 average millionaires who migrated abroad with their families to escape the repression under BJP rule will come back to India. \nOnly a few mega-millionaires who supported Brahminism and BJP benefited under BJP rule, so small millionaires had to go abroad to protect their economy. \nIn 2023, India will be the second-biggest loser of millionaires, after China. India is expected to lose 6,500 high net-worth individuals (HNWIs) this year. Last year, India lost 7,500 HNWIs. Between 2013 and 2022, India lost 48,500 HNWIs. The net loss in 2023 is just 1.9% of the total number of resident millionaires, 344,600. Due to the migration of small millionaires to foreign countries, there is a lack of employment in India and the poor people are affected.

No citizenship just work permits on a yearly basis.

Chileans, they being doing this since the las 10 years

but you're not counting the illegals. That's why there's no housing.....half a million immigrants per year, and hardly any housing being built. WHOA! i've seen some of the vets from 3rd world countries.....they're not very well educated. I can only wonder about Drs and nurses.

This has been building for at least two decades and I'm surprised that only now people are talking about this. There are few reasons anymore for quality immigrants to come to Canada. The only people coming here and staying are people coming from God-forsaken places that make Canada look like paradise, or wealthy investor immigrants who buy property here and maybe only live here for six months of the year.

Once they get their citizenship they will leave. Naturalize citizenship should be based on 25 years of living and working within the country.

I love Canada, especially Toronto, my home for 20+ years. But I totally agree, in the past 5+ years, since 2015/2016, I noticed lots of changes to terrible, and never the same anymore. Although, I'm still very positive, there are still things that are amazing (i.e. events, volunteer opportunities), with extra caution, and visit other cities. Just living day-by-day, count blessings, focus on positivity, appreciate, and be thankful.

After 8 years of this disastrous government does it surprise anyone

Come for the OAS stay around for a couple of years and bolt for the states

We trained a record of 75 individuals in plumbing electrical and carpentry in the past 2 years. Canada just needs to look around we are here to work! Don't need immigrants to work I gaurentee that.

Canada stopped educating and employing its own 30 years ago. That’s why it’s in this mess relying on horrible unmanaged uncontrolled immigration that’s destroying the country and it’s culture.

In the time that it takes someone to go to school or learn a trade the economy will change and there will no longer be a demand. Nobody in the pre-apprentiship trades programs 5 years ago got jobs, and even now they probably won't take apprentices. They are outsourcing cheap labour so they don't have to train Canadians. The local Mcdonalds is under investigation because they would only hire Pilipino Temp workers.

Incompetent politicians. They should have bern investing in infrastructure years ago instead of lowering the interest rate and fuelling a housing bubble that put money into the.pockets of developers, those in construction and fellow politicians. Disgusting corrupt system. Now getting immigrants to foot the tax dollars to pay for long overdue social services like hospitals, education and transportation. Not surprised that most immigrants get the heck out of this place.

Our birth-rate is low, so we do need immigrants, that being said, housing needs to keep up and so do appreciation of foreign experience. \nSome of the Ukrainian refugees that we welcomed in NL were doctors and nurses and they really wanted to start working, but were not allowed because they were not trained in Canada. This isn't even a foreigner issue, if a doctor/nurse wanted to move to a different province there are still obstacles, which doesn't make sense to me! Sure healthcare workers from other countries should be brought up to speed on the system, but at the end of the day, they still acquired the education and work experience to do their job and can provide proof of their credentials, it should not take years to work in Canada.

After our tax dollars supported them for a few years. They should have to pay a fee.

I got here with my wife less than a year ago. My employer doesn't pay what is stated on my work contract. I think there's a lot of abuse from employers on immigrants coming in on closed work permits. The reason we've stayed is because we've invested a lot of time and effort into getting here just to give up easily. Had we known it would be like this, we would have probably not come. Mind you, not all employers are like this, I just happened to run into bad luck. I know of other cases in which this happens and it's infuriating. My wife is a nurse and cant work here as one due to restrictions in her work permit. I guess there's no demand in the healthcare industry here...

Living in Toronto is the worst part of my life. It has made me extremely negative - I just hate being there and constantly\nComplain. I have been lucky enough to travel for months at a time, and get to see how amazing other countries and cities are. But it has just opened my eyes to how awful Toronto is, and I dread the last few days of vacation because I know I have to go back to my downtown shoebox, listen to sirens and hate my existence again. Desperately want to leave, and hoping to this year, but the day to day is just so bad. I make decent money but haven’t been able to save a thing due to the high cost of living. The winter is coming and I dread that so so so deeply. F this city, I’m sorry.

they are takin new immigrant every year \nbut they have problems of house income and job

Many immigrants are straight up scammed into coming here by predatory immigration companies. They tell them about the high income, but not the high cost of living. I feel for everyone who uproots their life just to find out they have to do it again in a few years.

So instead of haltin immigration, they are expanding it. wow. they'ss turn Canada inso Sanfrancisco in a year.

They need international students just to pay tuition fees !\nThe debate between international students questioning the choice of Canadian universities and working in canada has started years before in platforms with big audiences !

But WAIT!!!! A few short years ago, Trudeau was saying AI would wipe out at least 40% of all jobs, and we'd need a Guaranteed Income Supplement for all the useless eaters. What happened to that? Did 'yall forget???????

I had exactly the same experiences in 2002 when I went(and came back) on PR to Canada. Getting into a proper paying job in your own profession is the most herculean task in itself. The necessity of a car due to extreme harsh weather most of the months and then initially affording only a basement with mostly indoor activities during non-summer months takes a huge toll on one’s mental well being. Most of the jobs are regulated in Canada so getting an equivalent clearance and compatibility for a job is no easy task at all otherwise you’ll end up doing only sundry manual help jobs around which too aren’t available easily. I found a lot of positivities and possibilities too in Canadian life but then be prepared to sacrifice a lot for many years and then maybe you realise you have a lot more to loose than gain! So as this blogger said Go to Canada first on say a tourist visa to friends or family, stay and spend some time and money too and then make a long term decision to come and stay forever or not. But in the meantime don’t quit your job or business back in India till you come to a final outcome?

Few morr years Canada will be filled by uneducated immigrants like Filipinos who live and work just to survive.

Reddit is a very leftist platform and so these types of responses were predictable. A lot of it would have been true in the 70s and 80s but these are Canadian stereotypes that people are desperately holding onto. More and more things are being delisted from our healthcare coverage, meaning that I often hear of people getting charged out of pocket. I was surprised 3 years ago when my doctor ordered a cancer screening after I was suffering a digestive issue. I was not prepared to pay out of pocket for something as essential as cancer screenings. This sort of thing always used to be covered. It was always covered by our much higher cost of living and our higher taxes. If my taxes keep going up, I expect services to get better, not to decline like they have been. Our seniors are afraid to go to the doctor these days. Suicide is being offered to them instead of proper care and treatment. After they had spent decades working and paying into the system they are being shut out.

I was born in Canada and live here currently. I have lived in Asia, Europe and USA. Canada is my least favorite country to reside, by far, to be honest. Canadian health care is not free, it is just that Canadians are brainwashed to think that working months a year (slavery) for the government healthcare is acceptable. Like children wanting mommy and daddy to look after their allowance. The services a pathetic! As for the politics comment; that fellow is also typical of many (but not all) Canadians....most people in Canada ONLY talk to people that they agree with therefore there will not be any arguments...people even ghost their own family if you don't agree to worship the government.

Please help me . i have 10 years caregiver experience

Most Western cities have the same story, make no sense for a city to make itself unaffordable but they all seem to do so. I did a number of roadtrips from my base in Bulgaria this year to Macedonia, Serbia and Romania and all the cities we went are affordable and not struggling, Brasov, Orsova, Zajecar, Nis, Prilep, Samakov, Smolyan, Devin and more, its not Utopia but its safe, affordable, interesting, nice weather, andd 'refugee' free.

This is such a depressing video. Canada is fucking full.\nWhen people say immigration is good for the economy, they fail to mention that it's the immigrants themselves that are flourishing at the expense of the native Canadians. \nYeah the economy does better because there's cheap labour, low IQ workers that'll pack boxes for 10+ years with no complaints, and those same high skill workers are stealing opportunities from native workers that are equally high skilled (they lose out on opportunities not due to being out-competed but due to Affirmative Action, see ESG scores).\nThis is so grim, seeing Canada, in real time, get raped by foreign insurgents.

Waaoo you are right paa Italy is like that oooo I am here for 23 year's but still they are doing it to me I wont to come to canada next year ❤❤l love bro

How much did Trudeau pay the terrorist a few million dollars a few years ago good God almighty

I have lived in Europe for years now and the system here is a socialist system (Sweden); whereby you can make just enough to get by, but not to get rich. Thank you for the video as it has valid points my brother.

I feel like the weather in Vancouver and on the island was absolutely glossed over. It’s worth every penny to live in a city that doesn’t snow for most of the year and doesn’t get wildly hot and humid in the summer. Also, it’s so beneficial to have the mountains, ocean, lakes, and the city all within an hour radius

For Indians The million Dollar Visa is also backlogged for 3 years.

I was in upstate New York and didn't realize that they didn't take our Canadian money, this was many years ago. I hadn't had a problem Previously using my money by border states. The gas station attendant called the cops on me Cause I had no other means to pay for the gas. A state trooper came and told the cashier to take my money. He was super friendly and kind. I was so thankful and grateful for his help. I've always found people friendly when I've been to the America. But that said I haven't visited all the areas.
