I'm shocked that you're shocked that Canadians consider American gun violence. From 2009-2018, USA had 288 school shootings. The next highest is Mexico with 8. Canada had 2.

Healthcare in Canada is falling apart, our prime minister is trying to turn us into a dictatorship, cost of living has gone extreme especially buying a house.......Canada is not Canada at the moment, I would wait before moving here yet lol. I would not go to the states however I've considered other places.

As a Canadian he’ll no I would never move to the USA crazy politics god help us all of any of those crazies are elected in the next election you’re country will become a fascist country no decent health care I wish Americans would stop saying that the health care system is restricted and we can’t go to certain doctors and we let the elderly die bullshit yes our health care system isn’t perfect but we don’t pay a penny to see a doctor and if we have any surgeries or long stays in the hospital does not send us a bill for anything gun violence in the states is very crazy and sadly since that evil despicable trump brought out visible racism Canada is not perfect but I’m a proud Canadian I won’t even go to the states on vacation way to many crazies to all the decent Americans this does not reflect on you

In the US, the price setter for health care is the doctor, or hospital. Given that it can be life or death, the sky is the limit for the price. In Canada, the government pays the bills. It pays in bulk. And thus gets the best prices. So. \n\nIt’s simple economics. \n\nPrivate industry wrote the laws and is writing the laws that govern their areas today. That’s what all those filthy rich lobbyists are doing in Washington, DC.

Tyler, remember that the mass media plays a big role in this as anytime there is a school shooting in the US it gets reported in Canada. The news focuses on anomalies and these are still anomalies. I remember the first time I went to NYC in 1988 when it was still much more dangerous than it is today. When I got off the train I told my girlfriend not to take her camera out - but as soon as we rounded the corner from Grand Central it was wall to wall tourists and everyone had their camera out. I ended up having a great time and rode the subway all over the place, no problem whatsoever. I have travelled across the US several times and been to every single US state. There is huge variety and the US is my fav country in the WORLD for a road trip - so convenient, easy, interesting, beautiful and with friendly people everywhere. I have a message, having travelled to 105 countries on 6 continents and living 15 years of my life abroad in various countries - almost EVERYWHERE is safe in the world and full of mostly great people. TV isn't reality folks! If you are an idiot, you could get into trouble anywhere.

I did move to the USA and lived in Brooklyn, New York for three years. My experience was mixed and I considered New England but I can't sample each of the remaining 49 states bcz life is too short. So I returned to Canada.

As a Canadian I can say that the #1 Canadian person who moves to USA is our medical staff. Nurses and doctors make much more in the states many people get educated and get some experience in Canada and then move to USA for the increased income. It's a bummer because in my small town there aren't many family doctors and many people don't have a family doctor and won't for years because of the doctor shortage at least in BC but I think it's a Canada wide issue. I am lucky to have a doctor who wants to live in a small town and help people, he is from south Africa ! ?

I see you have a false sense of security about your job providing health care benefits to you in the USA. What happens when you get in a car accident and can no longer work. You get fired, lose your benefits and you have to fund your own 15 reconstructive surgeries without insurance? In Canada it's all free and you get a disability pension at the end of it.

@Tyler, I think you need to learn about guns in Canada. You seem to think that we don’t have many. To the contrary we have A LOT of them, we just don’t make it our culture! We learn what they’re used for and that’s where we use them! We also have better safety around guns and they can be seized for certain reasons, such as family violence, mental health crisis etcetera…

I have spina bifida and I’ve had 20+ surgeries. I’m not leaving a country that kept me out of bankruptcy and death and kept me from getting shot. I’m white, but I’m not playing Russian Roulette with my life. I just in the last few years discovered cannabis as relief for my chronic pain. I know there are some places where it’s legal, but it isn’t worth the risk for me. I remember visiting LA when I was 12 and hearing about how cool and hip Beverly Hills was. When I got there, it looked worse than the Downtown Eastside of Vancouver, which is one of the poorest, most crime filled places in Canada. It was scary. That’s not the kind of “freedom” I’m looking for. You can’t exercise any freedom when you’re 6 feet under.

I don't think I would move to the U.S. for many reasons. Healthcare is great in Canada. I don't think I'd be able to afford insurance in the U.S. , I also would be afraid of guns, the coastlines will rise by the 2030s, so my dreams of California and New York are out as well, never mind the outrageous cost of living there and being an arts person, I wouldn't want to be there now with the strike. I don't think I'd be affected as a stand-up comedian, but the opportunities would be way less with the industry shut down.

in 1960, 85% of US immigration came from Europe, Canada, and Australia. In 2020, just 60 years later, the numbers have flipped and now only 14% immigration comes from these areas.

Oh no, I don’t like it when Americans see stuff like this. One of Canadian’s less admirable qualities is that we can be a little smug when comparing ourselves to the US.\n\nTo cheer Tyler up there are some things I prefer about the states. Where I live in Vancouver we’re quite cliquish and don’t talk to strangers, but when I’m in the states I can make a new best friend in a subway ride.\n\nAmericans are also extremely charitable. If you look at the rates of charitable giving in the US vs Canada there is no comparison.

Hell yes. I'd move back in an instant. I used to live in the US with my American wife. Coming back to Canada we enjoyed nothing but expense, no rights, a lot of restrictions and now it's becoming like communist China. Love it or hate it America is the last place on earth that has real rights backed up by a real constitution. And you can enjoy any locale not just a few mile strip across the Canadian wet, frozen or scorching nation. People that think the US is bad are deluded and probably leftist, anti-Trumpers, think that the Canadian health care system is free and you have a choice.

We'd thought about it. On balance, I think we're settled in Canada and late in life so that re-starting would not be practical but ... we'd thought and talked about it. The potential freedoms we feel like we're losing, here, now. (It's always complex ;-) )\n\nCanada's health care system/financing/administration is having problems too. We aren't subject, the same way, to individual medical bankruptcy but the system is VERY broken.\n\nWe've had shootings on the streets lately ... innocent bystanders being hit. \n\nCanada's a great (and imperfect) place. \n\nIt's not better or worse (IMO). It's different.

Looking to move to the USA due to the sky high cost of living here in Canada. It's become untenable. Ontario is a shit show.

The #1 problem with Canada's economy is TRUDEAU and his corrupt administration's spending and money printing with nothing to back up the value! This happened like clockwork all over the world!! Its ALL UN planned!!! They want to break country's economies to force us into digital controlled currencies!!

Canada's immigration will be well over a million this year. People aren't leaving.

The problem with Canada's economy is that it's totally controlled by the .01% elite who couldn't care less for Canadians other than the production they contribute to their agenda. Financial, sexual, surgical, entertainment, land, power. Their religion is to serve Mammon and so the world is in trouble. Lucky for us they will go down hard but not before we all go down. And the only ones getting back up again are those who would not serve and know the one and only true Lord and saviour Jesus Christ. So grateful for His Love.

Thanks bro, That’s the hard fact,my husband got a visitors visa to canada bt was Lucky to be 1 out of the 10 Because He’s a go getter,no backdown till i succide

great information...uve painted a very clear picture....most people on study visa and work permit here in canada struggle 1st 2 years in canada before the anxiety goes away

The problem with Canada is we export billions every day, month and year take your pock. We export billions to foreign countries like never before and unfortunately live paycheck to paycheck on a monthly basis. We need to mandate a manufacturing move of made in Canada and Canadian only manufacturing.

Canada is bad but you are still in Canada ????

Pls Chorkormillionaire I'm a Nigeria lady i came into Canada with visitors looking for how to stay back to Canada but I have a health issue that I was hospitalized and because of the hospital bill I can't return back to Nigeria cos I had that if I go back without paying the hospital bill I will not be able to come into the country again. Am also pregnant hv spent 2months in Canada already. I need ur advice

This is informative?\nI'm looking forward to studying in Canada.

Every country has its pros and cons, Canada here i come

Canada is never the same in the past fifty years.People just want to come here for the Money so they can leave for the country they belong.They think Canadian are stupid because of their generosity so they take advantage of the government hand out.Leadership in our country is not,we became Followers of the U.S.systems and no accountability for the conditions we are in.Supporting wars and giveaway funds to nations and ignoring our citizens who need help.Everything you need you have to pay taxes and what is our taxes doing nothing.

Thanks for your dedication Mr. Chokor \nI want to do my masters in pharmaceutical sciences or pharmacology but am having difficulty in getting school in canada.

In Canada, we're all becoming more and more equally poor

Parents kya....these reasons make me want to leave Canada

Canada is all about business...

Was planning to move to Canada, but I thank you guys for this video. I am changing my mind ❤❤

I would like to see what Canada does if Ron DeSantis is elected.

pretending to be gay to get in Canada just like many who said they was 60 from Ukraine when they was in their 20s

I'm sure many many of these will be bogus cases...people have found a new way into Canada by claiming sexual persecution.

Give Trudeau 4 more and he will sell off Canada to China and our economy will be Communistically sound.

you think it's a dream to come to canada but the NDP & Liberals want this because you love to be lied to young people need to wake up

In which PROVINCE! Canada doesn't use the words 'state'.

Who moves to Alberta Canada?

Pay no attention to the complaint. They don't like SAS. You can still be black in Canada. SAS is not allowed

AS a Canadian who never lived IN Canada, easy to see WHY NOT to even consider it\nI can buy a nice condo in Brasil for $25,000 usd !\nIF an apto in Canada costs $250,000 (hard to find even at that price), that means I can buy 10 aptos in Brasil for the same amount of money !

Veere m pooja from roorkee haridwar I watch your video first time I also have dream to settle in canada please rpy I want to know more about canada need help

Are you saying racism against blacks is worse in Canada than in the US?\nWhat I heard is that it is worse in the U.S.

Canada's immigration policy is shit, it seeks out people from shit hole countries that dont know anything but crime and corruption and their come here wanting to bring their beliefs along with their way of life which was corrupt trying to turn Canada into the shit hole they left. Canada can do better by not seeking bottom of the barrel immigration.

Brother very nice and detailed video....If a 45 years old person tries for PR in Canada...how will everything go..Is it a good idea or he/she will be eligible? Please

I was born in Canada and my family has been here for generations..Racism is alive everywhere sadly, but dont think its all white people. Ive been verbally mistreated by black and native people who simply dont like white people. Its very tiresome but i always fight back WITHOUT resorting to the same racism they hit me with

Lots people are going away from Canada ?? because liberals and NDP

I'm a grade 11 English/ESL teacher. I'm going to show this video to my Korean students tomorrow. It's an interesting perspective of Canada nobody has told them about yet. Rick

Canada is richest country run by idiots ( Kevin 'O'Lerry)

Mad respect to Canada, they're some people that travaled many countries to get to Canada meet their family have better life and they're some racist people that are starting arguments because we shouldn't allow the illegal immigrants
