This is true, however despite the amount of people in big cities like NYC in the west, it actually feels more lonely than empty semi rural/suburban places like what is filmed in the video because of how busy people are

Trudeau smiles and nods as if he actually gives a hoot when we know he doesn't really care. Politicians want to be elected and exercise their power in order to better their lives and standing.

I was wondering why most Americans or Europeans are so keen on partying, now I know why. It’s actually very sad.

I am an immigrant from India. I have been in California for almost 8 yrs. I feel California is quite better in terms of socialization because of very mixed and vibrant communities . And yes strangers just randomly greet and talk to each other on the streets. In fact when I first came to USA, I was surprised to see people just randomly greet each other on the streets..which truly I have never seen back in India. In India we have been taught from childhood never to talk to strangers. And the reality is there are winds of change back home in India too. I am not talking abt the villages. They are completely different case. But even people living in small towns are now preferring privacy. And no.. its not because of foreign returnees. Even people living there for generations now don't want to socialize. Even in India now we have to request kids to go out and play..which to me is a very disturbing thing . All of them just want to sit at home and play games on their smartphones. In fact I find kids in USA prefer playing sports or other activities more than the kids back in India. It actually depends which part of the country u live in.... doesn't matter India or USA .

I had a pen friend who was a Dr and he told me how lonely it was ...\nSo you are in point....\nBtw he actually stopped writing to me beacuse he had lost the ability to socialise and talk with me ...

Haha Turdy blames lack of homes being built ! ? What-a-jerk. Still can't believe for a 2ND TERM! ALMOST HALF of the population actually voted for these morons. I don't know who's the clowns anymore, but its definitely a circus.

It’s totally different mindset.\nA home is for family (not alone), safe place. \nIn the States is privacy and if you want to be involved in a hobby, sport, etc. you go and get involved in a club!\nLook at a movie from the 1960s, i.e. ‘It’s a beautiful life’ the whole town was involved in each others life, you truly feel the love from all your neighbors.\nThat changed with all the different immigration changes, and different cultures that are not assimilated and they form their own sub-culture. The whole American experiment was for immigrants to assimilate in the American culture, but as mentioned that has started to get lost, because now you have many neighbors that don’t speak English. \nI don’t think what he is describing in this video about the countries where he is coming from are that efficient, where people stay outside all day and talk all day and not actually doing any work, but just talk, talk, talk. I come from Eastern Europe and that was what my parents and grandparents did everyday, a lot of youth now just want to be left alone and do their business and have their circle of close friends to be productive with their time.\nI would say for the American people, immediate family is what is strong.

What does building new homes have to do with the price of a home? The bar has been set, nobody is going to go back to selling houses for 150,000 - 200,000 doesn't matter how many homes you build. Also how long will it be before we actually see results from this 4 billion investment, by the time it does anything to help there will be even more Canadians and more immigrants. So there will be an entire generation missing out. \nMaybe you need to go back to school and learn better math skills.

Speculator offers in overheated markets should be set aside if there is an offer on a property by someone who is actually going to live there. Too bad a large portion of Trudeau's cabinet and MPs are property speculators.

ONE CAN ONLY ADD SOMETHING LIKE ...........DUUH ! I have ran out of swear words and other qualifying compliments to describe this MAGGOT ! Actually sick of him is only a partial sentiment I FEEL TOWARD THIS liberal CANADIAN JOKE !

None of anything he is saying actually makes sense. He just doesn’t get it. Big thumbs down. I am being polite.

I can not imagine someone who lives in good conditions in their homeland move to Canada or US. Belonging is actually the most precious thing most people don't realize

Its actually safe for him to be out in public?

This life sucks, i have exprrienced this in china.\nCome visit pakistan and you will see what life actually means.

This is something I never thought about. I actually get anxiety walking outside and hoping my neighbors don’t talk to me lol. Obviously this isn’t normal. When I was a kid we all played outside and now I only see people walking their dogs. Weird society we are raised in.

It wasnt always like this. It is only like this the last 10-15 years. And I agree it sucks. And the thing is if you decide that no, you dont want to live like this (we don't) people actually complain on you that you or your kids are disturbing them. We live anyway but it still sucks. And in winter you spend the whole winter without even seeing the next door neighbor. They do not come out all winter.

Silence is also violence? \nIt isn't actually. LOL.\n\nIt's literally silence... If that is violence, literally everything is violence...? No...?

I'm new to ur channel but it's amazing to get the informations. Actually I'm already in canada I have to call someone here from India so regarding that i want some more info so can u pls tell me how can I get in touch with u?

Start a new life is to have some advantages. Move into a Freezer, most have some benefits. but actually there is very little to be honest. And too muchregulation and don't do this, don't do that. don't breath air and passport vaccin and ID everywhere you walk in. and you call that a nice and free and friendly country? no way! wake up! you have been hypnotyzied by the medias

When CNN actually did reporting.

Why are the Muslims who we don't want here to begin with get all the favoritism and Goldstar Healthcare and money to be here? Why are Ukraine's not treated the same way we actually want them here

I know plenty of actual Canadian families that could use some support.

I haven’t travelled much of Canada but I refuse to believe bc doesn’t crack the top 3. It’s beautiful. It has it all. Cities. Mountains. Oceans. Forests. Deserts. It’s expensive AF but so is Ontario. Everyone I’ve ever met from Ontario cannot stop gushing about how beautiful bc is it that there are ACTUAL mountains here. And the weather in both Ontario and Alberta is awful in comparison.

Uh, excuse ME, but the cold weather in Manitoba is a FEATURE. We were actually colder than the surface of Mars one winter! How *cool* is that! Ahahah… ha…!\n\n… yeah, none of us know why we live here, either, to be honest. xP\n\n(I kid, I kid. XD)

Actually she was speaking Indian pretty good

actually an insightful video. i thank you ??

Best is what you said that Skilled labor make more money than white collar job holders, which is actually true.......Tight slap to all those image conscious white collar job seekers......?.\n\nKindly note if you want to have a stable life in the long run. Take up jobs that come your way. No job is big or small, respect all.......?

You actually don’t need to speak French to live inQuebec

The Nunavut joke is actually true ?

moved back to eastern Europe after 27 years of Canada... my best friends are Quebecois and my wife (Quebecois again) convinced me to move. The best thing I have done, especially for my kids... no waiting on family doctors, in 20 min you drop your kids to school and are at work, no over taxation, weather you can actually enjoy 365 days a year and very apparent after a while, no press/media dictatorship like the one in Canada.

I was actually turned away from the Canadian border last summer due to Covid restrictions. Of the 31 countries I've visited as an adult, the Canadian customs guy was actually the rudest and biggest jerk of anywhere I've been. Almost all the rest were boring, except Ukraine. The Ukrainian guy was the only border officer I came across who made jokes. (The Canadian guards were even jerks to the Canadians!)

I actually don't object , particularly, to my high taxes in Canada. I do object to the fact that it took me , 15 extra working years to achieve a reasonable income due to the cost of an education being beyond my reach. Now that I have a reasonable income, I find those high taxes spent poorly. Dental care and extended medical or medications? Not covered.\n\nSo where do these high taxes go? Comparing my tax rate to the functional half of Europe's countries, it's about the same, more or less. \n\nBut they have better health care, affordable education and housing.\n\nAnd as others have pointed out, despite living in the biggest city, it's still relatively boring to many of the Major cities I've stayed in globally.\n\nI recommend Canada to immigrants who would enjoy a Rural or Suburban lifestyle that still has access to amenities and infrastructure. There are more opportunities in some ways, and the costs of living are much more affordable. But if you are interested in an urban life with what that has come to mean globally, the best Canadian cities can offer you is 'diverse restaurant options'.

I find it hard to actually disagree with them. All of these problems seem very serious and should be properly dealt with.

oh my. I am planning to immigrate to Canada after 7 months and I'm about to finish my college. everybody I met so far says it better to immigrate to Canada but I wanted to hear the pov of someone who doesn't recommend it.\n\nI'm just a 23 years old what do you think? especially that I'm running away from my family, which means staying in Canada will be my only choice there will be no turning back. IF I actually did run off to Canada\n\nis it worth the shot? I'm literally broke btw

When I studied abroad in Russia, we were actually told to tell people we were Camadian. People really hate America. God knows why /s.

Good video overall, but HUGE WARNING - You quoted the Fraser Institute (11:07) regarding the tax rates. They are not a research institute - they are a neoliberal think-tank that is openly anti-tax, anti-government and has the agenda of discrediting all social programs and social spending. The tax rate is Canada for individuals is actually quite reasonable for the social programs. I'm a Canadian living in Germany now, and I love it here, but we pay way more tax.

Today by chance I see your channel and at once I subscribe it .I heard alot of you about your excellent career in Pakistan Customs and obviously your acting skill is brilliant . My name is Amir Hussain .I lives with my family in Portugal .Me ,my wife and 2 sons . Actually 6 months ago Canada cis immigration consult contact me that you are eligible for immigration in Canada under Job contract law.I fully paid their fees but now the problem is Job contract for my process .For this the immigration consult demand me more money .So please guide me how I find a job for my immigration as well as my family survival . Thanks . Waiting for your response .

If you know you have heart problems you actually have 2 choices: A go to your familly doctor or B if you think its serious go to the emergency entrance of your hospital. If you cant get their, call the ambulance and they will bring you their. You'll get the help you need much faster tho it needs to be something urgent. So make sure its not minor.

Actually most employers just wont employ you if you dont have experience and thats a major problem for everyone here. Tho natives like myself do get support from the government.

the lowest is actually -40.6C in Winnipeg in 1988

i like saskatchewan the most just because most of the people are really nice and it actually has one of the best economies due to all f its natural resources like gold, diamonds, uranium, oil, natural gas and of course it is the biggest farming province. also i just remembered that the small towns are one of the best in the country where most of them just give you that nice feeling of home ad everyone knows where everyone lives

Sad that Quebec is such a racist province...actually one of the worst provinces to live in!

Canada is a land with great resources, great opportunity and potential, but for a place with so much supposedly smart people they do alot of dumb things. Been here 7 years now and I have seen so many issues that have obvious solutions but because of some weird culture or heritage or whatever they just keep doing the same thing until it hurts them. The real estate market is an absolute MESS and everybody knows. Money laundering, realtors colluding to set prices, blind auctions etc you name it. But they are just gonna keep doing the same thing until the country is in a major recession. Then everybody is going to be crying for bailouts. The health system is a MESS. Trying to find a doctor is like finding a needle in a haystack. They have them driving taxis instead, claiming that their qualifications arent as good. Yet they dont have enough doctors or nurses to support anything. Coworkers whose spouses work in those industries let me know they have to be working ridiculous shifts because there are not enough people. The taxes are ridiculous. I work in I.T. and taxes are like roughly half my salary. Many coworkers have told me all the illegal stuff they do to get around the taxes. Which I don't do because I wasn't raised like that. But people get taxed so much everyone is doing some thing to try to bypass it. And if you dont know the tricks or dont want to do them, you just get screwed. People don't talk about real issues here. There is alot of fake positivity and optimism because they dont want people to get sad and suicidal from the really long and harsh winter. I used to wonder why there were so many train delays until some one explained to me that many people commit suicides in winter by stepping in front of the trains. The only thing propping up this country is the constant influx of immigrant slave labour through the college system, (Like a ponzi scheme). But the immigrants are going to stop coming here if they cant even afford to live at all. Even the regular citizens cant afford it. So what will the country do after that, since there is an elderly population and not enough people to support the industries? Right now most of the immigrants come here and save up there money to go somewhere else or back home after they realize what a shitshow it is. I even have coworkers born and raised in Canada who are telling me they want to leave. Canada needs to stop patting itself on the back for doing stupid apologies and stuff like that, and actually do economically sound things to stop digging themselves into this hole. Great potential for this country but I don't know if it will ever be realized.

Actually stands for 'Bring Cash' ? oh so true

To me, the problem is threefold. a) Toronto and Ontario in general - and perhaps the whole of Canada - are accepting way more immigrants than they have quality jobs for. If you need taxi drivers and plumbers, maybe this experience should be valued way higher than education as part of the existing immigration programs (which is not the case). At least then potential immigrants know this before they come and get stuck in low-paying or relatively OK-paying but repetitive and demoralizing jobs with debts and mortgages that become a trap preventing them from leaving. It's also partially on immigrants themselves who come to Toronto to only find out there's 100 people competing for one spot and that you need to be exceptional - or connected through your ethnic network - to work regular white-collar jobs. b) The official bipartisan policy of non-integration. The naive expectation that having people live in ethnic enclaves will somehow make the overall culture richer is not what happens: instead, people tend to stick to their own communities and the common culture thus gets eroded and limited to economic and financial matters. This makes some cities feel like one large business with everyone networking 24/7 instead of socializing normally. And arguably, having the right culture / social life is what motivates already successful people move in the first place. So when they come and they find out there's nothing but money talk and hustling, they leave (if they're smart). Quebec is doing better in that regard, but then Quebec is not really Canada and it's been pressured to cave in to the same money-centred, uncultured and disconnected society by the feds for decades now. The States is smarter in that it actually makes sure to integrate its immigrants (and let's be honest, many immigrants like being part of a new culture if it fits them) c) Treating real estate as an investment and not as a basic necessity (as Japan or some Nordic countries do, for example). That coupled with a lot of Asian money being laundered in Canada through immigration channels and private equity firms buying whole apartment blocks for rental purposes has led to the highest housing price increase in all of the developed world in the past 20 years or so. The median price of a condo in Toronto is higher than in New York despite the massive gap in salaries and the fact that New York is one of the most expensive cities in the world to begin with. Some draconian measures are needed here to prevent foreign - or even out-of-province ownership -, second property ownership and corporate ownership for renting purposes.

I'm from Canada ?? originally and I speak English, no French. I'm from Winnipeg. Manitoba. I live in Huntsville, Alabama the rocket city!!! ?, although I visit my family that still lives in Winnipeg which is my brother among others and friends I grew up with. I never forget my roots from the great white north!!! I actually miss the ❄️ and my family. My daughters and grandchildren live in Miami, Florida but after all these years Canada still hits the heart for me. I must be feeling it as I'm getting up there more. You never forget where you come from.

I actually took your America state rate seriously until I seen this and realized you have no clue what your talking about ?

Whenever anyone says go back to their country always remember that they’re not actually from that country
