I MISS living in Toronto so much but theres zero chance I could afford it now I had a 2 bdrm in Parkdale for $1475 and the DAY I moved out they marked it as being under renovation and bumped the rent for my unit up to $3200.

A somewhat depressing video, because it's an actually accurate portrait of the city, as it is. Toronto and Canada as a whole is governed by politicians and bureaucrats, who rely on experts opinion of what could be, if x,y,z all come together as envisioned. These pixie dust ideas are often aspirational, but sadly lack a base in reality. Slogans and cheerleading don't make things happen. Rarely is there enough funding to support implementation of these grandiose ideas, and somehow these same leaders ensure they get a chunk before anyone else, cause they have a standard of living to maintain. They just really feel for the pain and suffering of those who are not them. Toronto and Vancouver used to be Canadian examples, that those of us didn't live or want to live there could still be proud of. These cities also were viewed as examples to follow by other Canadian population centres. So the same issues keep reoccurring, because in abstract theory they could work. By the time reality shows that they are not working, it is too late, and too hard, and too embarrassing to change course. \nA very interesting video by a creator who took her rose coloured glasses ( we all have a pair just admit it), and sees what is and then says it out loud.

I have lived in Canada my entire life and I feel like there are better countries you could be living in

That was a Taiwanese press reporter chasing with a question. Could be. Put in place.\n\nWhy so much misunderstanding?\n\nChina is a very hardworking nation. It has a robust governance. The misses of democracy are corrected in their governance. With a hard hand. That's all. \n\nI've heard many IT personnel who visited China from India saying the people are happy there.

The 7% rule is good. You don’t want your country to be overrun by another. Could be a different number but should be regulated nevertheless.

Honestly the only thing i see needing to change is the weird country divide thing. We dont want to overflow our nation with immigrants as that would directly relate to higher housing costs (more people dividing the same number of houses makes costs go up) and it may not be 100% directly related but Canada's unemployment rate is about 150% higher than that of the US which could be due to the immigration, more research would need to be done. Lastly we have a big issue of illegal immigration and we need to get that under tighter control before we become top focused on fixing the other end. If you have a boat with a leak in it you should be more concerned with fixing the leak than if you have enough supplies for your trip.

Hey bro proud of you. First upcoming successful podcast in Canada from INDIA ?? \nBro could you please mention the gears ⚙️ of shure every equipment ??

I could never understand immigrants complaining about the state if living of a country they chose yet they can’t seem to go back or try another one \nHow could someone travel to a new country get a degree and start working and benefits from what that system has to offer from security luxury economy and all that \nAnd yet they complain

He could never handle what it was like 50+ years ago. Soft.

Good job not letting them do what they thought they could do...fk Joe biden

Instead of encouraging wars and sending billion$ to kill we could help these people thrive in their own countries

If they would all band together they could take down the drug cartels.

Send the military all these National Guard people sitting around here not doing anything could be down there ??

Hello sir thanks for the video\nIn this videos they didn’t ask about the parents siblings information. Could you please tell me if it is required or not

Hello everyone.... finally i got my PR .... please suggest to move a less expensive city in alberta .... your valuable suggestion could help to my decision... thank you....❤❤❤

What’s with Hispanic culture and fucking up a country and then just leaving, how could you give no fucks about your country

hi could you point me in the correct direction, im a john deere mechanic looking to work in canada, i would love to stay in my field as a john deere mechanic

I was in US for 3 years and by the last year all I could think was coming back. When I landed in India I started crying out of happiness. Guys …. NOTHING can replace your family, you friends and your country.❤❤❤❤❤

All I hear is contradiction. I could be wrong though. If you’re living a better life in Nigeria. Why would you want another country's citizenship for your kids?

Dil khus kar diya bhai apne. Apke santulit jawab se bahut khusi hui aur apne desh ko bhi apne ache se aaklan kiya aur naye desh ko bhi ache se bataya. \nI think score is 8/10 and india could match score or even go higher with the combine zeal and effort of all our brother and sister. \nWe should not forget that even Canada is not become of today's Canada over night ?. So we can do it.

most canadian are ignorant. they would say go back to wher eyou from then. 99% of them dont realize that canada got a higher divorce rate then usa 47% that means every marriage got 50 50 chance of not working. now domino affect of that is single mother homes. single mothers dont raise man I REPEAT SINGLE MOTHER DO NOT RAISE MAN. man have to suffer through mistake and life lesson to understand how to be a man. they need a good father. most woman now dont want to be wives but rather the title to tell their friends and have the hoopla. most will say the cost of living requires bla bla bla. no its not the cost of living its your lifestyle that you want that is expensive. its the decision you made are making that makes it challenging. most woman get into marriage for love that is the dumbest thing ever since woman dont love they just love the way a man can make them feel until he cant anymore. you marry for duty and lifestyle and not love. man love woman respect. once she lose respect its over if she didnt have none from the jump then you got F. \n\nThat 1970 line is when men & women were expected to stop behaving differently in life & work. That’s the major event. Rockefeller economics wanted all citizens to be lifetime tax payers, not just men. That’s the only real, solvable issue. If woman a determined to embrace their natural place in society, to be matriarchs as they once were, instead of chasing masculinity and seeking to be patriarchs, a huge impact on everything would result. We’re not mature enough to have that discussion, however.\n\nThe XX’s were simply unavailable ideologically as labor/employees, and were deeply committed to being matriarchs: being nutritionists, home decorators, social emissaries , herbalist , first aid expert , gardeners, child care , pregnancy, child birth , lactation etc…they once were, then the labour market would be much more supply driven, wages rise, and both males and females not only a much easier life, but the children in that environment thrive.\n\nthis is a domino effect of what woman in the workforce created. this is grown man discussion here. this is critical thinking discussion here. unfortunately woman will never go back to where it was. oh and make no mistake I REPEAT MAKE NO MISTAKE MEN NOW ARE F ING WEAK AND WHEN I MEAN WEAK THEY ARE GODLY WEAK in almost every sense possible. we have 50% less testosterone then are grand fathers in the 1950 our sperm count decrease 1% every year this is factual check it out. so we need to blame weak men. rich man in power dont care as long as they make a profit. 85% of advert is toward woman. woman holds 3é4 of the depts . 98% of jobs that you need to run a society are run by man ( plumber , electrician , oil rigs , etc... ) we give woman ceo jobs but none of them deserve to be ceo or in position of power basically. there are so many few that could that its insignificant. crime is through the roof 90% of criminal , drug addicts , homeless , innmate are from single mother home. \n\nwhat woman want to be working 40 hours + with 2 + kids at 35+ years old instead of staying home ? show me those woman ? now that men are so weak we have a new industry of sex that makes younger adult woman make money not caring about consequences for their future child or their current ones. 1 in 3 woman are on some antidepressant 35 years old + . the least happy demographic is 35+ years old woman with no child no man and a job . i mean the stats are all there but th eprofit is to sweet for the ppl in power. they dont care because they are reach. \n\ntrudeau wife divorced him not a month ago but 2-3 .. year prior mentally. i bet she wasnt ready for a man with no spine. this push for alphabet mafia must of said ok thats enough. canada is becoming what ppl never thought it would be. in 5-10 years canada and china will have very little difference. its a beautiful country with beautiful landscape beautiful ppl beautiful opportunities led by the worst ppl on earth .

Maybe you should come to England it's not that bad.. I could live here forever except for the weather... Am Kenyan and I love England a lot. There are racist people but there are also very good people.. Cost of living is painfully high but it's high everywhere anyway.. .\n\nIf anyone does not know where to go.. start with England.. Everyone is minding their own business over here...\n\nIn terms of doctors it's a good profession here.. The pay for junior doctors is painfully whack! but consultants are doing well.. Tax also.. Very very high.... Do not even ask about housing and rent\n. . I went through a lot back home before I came here.. If all goes well I will never go back except for holidays and to visit my family...

Forgot to mention that it may be challenging raising the kids since it’s no longer education being taught but political correctness and white liberal theology masked as sympathetic political jargon meant to shield you from the fact that all Canadians are being turned into tax slaves by narcissistic sociopaths who believe they are saving the masses. You should also not contradict their views with your cultural or religious upbringing since this could get you in trouble with your job or who knows what else. Life here is becoming tough for ALL not just immigrants and those in charge are doing it purposely thinking it’s a good thing.

This people will do everything sell properties to leave Nigeria and start saying is not easy over there in Canada nobody ever said is very easy out there so you left cus of children to benefit what Nigeria could not afford so what exactly is this man saying

Coming to Canada from any part of Africa is not what many people would think of.\n\n\nMany people came from Africa and could not meet the requirements to practice their profession.\n\nI’m a Nigerian and a Canadian citizen who has been in Canada for the past 16 years.\n\nIf not for security and future of our children, if you have a good capital doing business in Nigeria, you have no reason going to Canada.

Countries like Niger could develop into 1st world nations. If there wasn't this severe brain drain on these countries. In which their brightest minds. Make it a point to immigrate into 1st world nations, and bring their gifts and talents over there. Further widening the gap between developed and developing nations.

Chines president could not clean his ass without that man at the BRICS ??

Old AF yes this happened WOMEN KIDS getting trampled. America could have stopped this ? but ITS ALL INTENTIONAL

You could also start by being more restrictive in allowing immigration into the country while you build your houses. Its not any better here in USA. Housing prices are astronomical.

He could make $1000 in Nigeria? Must've been running a rpivate clinic. Why didn't he stay back and have his family move overseas instead? He didn't talk about the challenges of living in Nigeria like poor quality of life, poor electricity and security infrastructure. If he is so aggrieved, he can always go back home while his family remains in Canada, that way he is still eligible for permanent residency.

Life in Nigeria is only decent for those living affluently in Lekki, Victoria Island, Ikoyi, certain areas of Ikeja and Abuja. Outside of that, life for everyday Nigerians is crap. Water & electricity (NEPA) are highly unreliable & intermittent, so fuel-powered generators are a necessity for living everyday life per household or per apartment in apartment complexes. The banking & government systems are notoriously sluggish, taking weeks and months to process simple paperwork such as drivers licenses, passports, certificates, banking transaction reversals, you name it. Bribery is a daily occurrence EVERYWHERE. Police (if you can call them that, mostly untrained thugs) detain & extort motorists and/or people innocently going about their daily lives, just for the money. Many many many people disappear mysteriously without ever being seen again by family or friends. Lots of inter-racial discrimination and animosity between the three major tribes that make up Nigeria… Yoruba, Igbo & Hausa-Fulani. The federal & state governments are horribly corrupt, bordering on dictatorship. Elections are undemocratic, to say the least, with thugs threatening voters at voting booths. I could go on?\n\nThis is why many Nigerians with any amount of wealth live in diaspora, whether that be the UK, Canada, the USA, Europe, or wherever. And, yeah, be prepared for everything being structured & organized in these countries, especially in North America. The cost of living is definitely higher to pay for a higher quality of living. That’s the difference between a developed country vs a country, such as Nigeria, that’s developing or considered ‘third-world’. Unfortunately, here in Canada we cannot account for the last 8 years under our current administration, which has gone rogue & is out of control, causing high inflation, interest rates and housing and cost of living to soar. This is not normal conditions even to those of us natural-born here. So, we feel for immigrants who have arrived in good faith in the last few years. I’m sure their country of origin is looking better than what is being experienced here in Canada currently.

How could a panda walk that fast ?

Good security work. Just because the man running behind the President is Chinese does not confirm he is the aide. Could just as well be a threat.

This is just like the uk.. I miss working back in Asia were I could enjoy my work and life and save at the same time. The west is a matrix

I could have them back up

It's not their fault it's our government falt they advertise America as home of the free with a white picket fence two kids an a dog they can literally come over here and do whatever they want besides hurt somebody or hurt some animals they can get drunk they could be homosexuals they can worship whatever God they want to worship they can divorce their husbands from some country some of them can drive cars some of them can wear pants and makeup depending on the country and the culture

A nice solid wall could have helped, Joe I'm looking at you.

Hey, could you share what the income certificate looks like

Canada has focused too long on being a raw resource economy with the world. \n\nTax policies in Canada are also high cost to businesses and people. The per capita number of civil servants to population is grossly high. And that only 2/3 of the population actually work for income … and you have a lot of dead weight that the workers are paying to upkeep. Most people are paying 40 cents of every dollar on taxes. This type of taxation makes the country unattractive to high income earners who could pay a lot less taxes in the USA and get a better lifestyle in the USA because everything is cheaper down there.

Many immigrants find the first few years difficult because of the job ethics. The job ethics here in Canada is quite different from Nigerian with a laidback background. In Canada you work for every cent and it has really worked for them and some of us. I have employed so many Africans especially Nigerians who thought I am mean because they have to work for every penny. You are not paid to come and have a chitchat at work or spend 5 hours on something that could take you 3 hours to do. I will say if you can't change your work ethics and try to integrate into the Canadian system please stay back in your country. I have also seen people who have been clouded with that high life they lived back home and find it difficult to Start at the bottom. Even if you are living a good life in Nigeria, Canada is a better place to live if you can unlearn some things and relearn other things.\nAnd is there systemic racism? The answer is YES. If our leaders treat us right, 80 percent of our people won't leave their country. Let's hold our government responsible not the north American government or their people.

you could have sent them to private schools in Nigeria

Could have been an assassination attempt ?

I could comment the whole day about this interview abroad is abroad ..they have policies followed to the letter making it a far better place to relocate than sit with your money in a country full of corruption and frustration.

Please stop you just let Columbians . With full residence . Something you could. It give all immigrants living here for year that paid their dues ?

I remember when Christians were Christians.\nNow there’s just hate.\nWe could confiscate businesses that hire ily and they wouldn’t have a job.. they would go home.. the right wing refuses even to discuss it.. I wonder why..?

Nothing but facts! I experience a lot of what this brother went through and I could only imagine how rough it is for someone starting from scratch in this current climate.

It's simple logic, if you doing well in your country, there isn't any need permanently relocating abroad, i am doing better here in Nigeria, though the inflation is choking but I could still pull forward day by day and my environment is one that keeps my sanity intact. Even when I am broke or sales are stagnant I could fall back on other things, even when there is no money to eat i can eat from my landladys house or travel back home, the community enables you to prosper and the empathy of people, how we care for ourselves is really soothing.

DISGUSTING . Americans could barely afford an apartment or whatever here . DISGUSTING

I've heard the GOP say they could solve this, but refuse to because this is a reason for U.S. citizens to dislike the current administration. So why didn't the former administration do so.

Dude, America need to just, claim all of Mexico as its own. Add it to our land borders, and go and fix all the insanity going on down there so that these people aren’t gathering in droves and marching on the border… \n\nAlso, we could then tax the hell outta they asses too ??? Increase our GDP or some shit
