Pakistani here. Fully agree with everything you said. I visited the states and within a week I felt like I was burning out really quickly. The life was so bland, tasteless and colourless. I didn’t see any elements of culture or traditions, it was all about making money and then saving that money for future retirement. Here in Pakistan life is full of joy and happiness because we have close knit communities and family system. I can’t imagine living in the US permanently. I love my culture of joy and vibrance far more than the grey culture of corporate America.

as a Canadian born and bread I am sadden to hear the challenges of new comers but there are a couple pieces of advice I can offer. even Canadians have to build references at adulthood. there are ways to start out. volunteering provides not only references but a sense of contribution and and community. educators and agencies you engage with as do religious institutions and any organizations you may come evolve with for references. as far as the climate dress in\n layers, invest in sturdy boots with good tread in the colder months and to get outside and learn not only to embrace but enjoy the colder months. hike the trails. the trails year round. you can pick up a cheap pair of grippers for your boots in the sporting goods department of any Canadian tire. pick up a cheap toboggan and slide down a hill. snowshoeing after a fresh fallen snow requires endurance but very little skill. its lovely how quiet how still and silent the woods are in the winter. how bright and visible the winter landscape is at night and how lush and green the woods in summer. if in Ontario definitely visit the falls. you can find culture and history in both Montreal and Quebec especially old Quebec. most people in both are bilingual in French and English and even a word or two of French is appreciated and you can be sure of a response in English.youd also be surprised at how possible it is to communicate even with a language barrier. if you are close to Toronto, you can explore many different cultures in both neighborhoods and events. I wish you all the best in where ever your futures lie xoxo

I spent 8 yrs in Toronto. I left Canada in 2005 after I got the degree and never been back here once. I hate this place so much because \nToo cold \nToo much tax \nStupid beverage culture paying extra 10% tips for meal without reason \nSlow \nteachers. does not teach. They make love with girls student . Smoke with them, racist etc in high school \nExpensive. \nBoring \nDrug every where \nCar racing every night \nPeople are fake \nCannot make money easily. Even u work hard. U pay more tax for those lazy people. \nEtc. \n\nI enjoy my home town very much

This is bullshit, it's not that bad, all the immigrants I know love it here, taxes are better in other provinces and pay is better in the higher tax provinces. It's the same stuff in the US. Like British Columbia has a tax of 15% but better pay, Saskatchewan has a provincial tax of 11% but lower pay and it works like that, we let people keep their country and culture here and alot of this is more untrue than true. We want people to teach us their culture and we teach them ours, Canada is a country built off of other cultures and original cultures into 1

when it comes to cultural differences, what you said there is a huge huge generalization. Why? Some preferred cultural behavior might be true for tiny nations (or small geographic areas). That is because of rather reasonable distances, habits could spread all over that area within past centuries (that is how all that is made). But talking even about Russians is a heavy stereotype. By best guess your Russians from around Moscow area and those close to eastern Chinese borders would differ more than those groups of of Chinese (or Mongolian if Mongolia is also close by), that are right on the other side of that eastern border with their Russian counterparts. And of course by Russians I mean here citizens of Russia and not their ethnicity. \nSo Saying how Europeans are all reserved (which funny enough if you mean Europe geographically would include Moscow), is just a huge misstep. It is like calling all USA citizens to be same way (something you might really want to avoid doing if ever you visit USA).\nAlso Climate. First of all Ontario is not the other name for Toronto or GTA area. It is rather big province. So that weather heavily depends if you are sitting in Toronto, Ottawa, North Bay or Windsor. That humid weather as you stated is only truth for the parts that are closer to those big lakes.\nAnd for the love of god. Canada DOES NOT have a paid insurance. Each province has its own paid insurance. So while certain things might be free in one province (like emergency ambulance), it is partially paid in other province.

I like how y’all have created this video by not applying a negative undertone rather more of an informative approach to caution prospective movers of what potentially awaits them. All I would like to highlight is the fact that some people will experience all these points as negative aspects or maybe even one or two that might lead to the breaking point.\nIt all depends on where you come from and how life was in your “home” country.\nYou might come from a higher tax environment with non existent healthcare and education. From that perspective, 40% taxes might look better and the healthcare might be great or crap depending on what your health issues are. I personally haven’t had any struggles with most of these aspects - finding a great job was relatively easier, (key word - relatively) the healthcare system worked for me when I needed it to, I was mentally prepared for the high taxes, I culturally adapted to the point where people thought I was Canadian and didn’t realize I came in from a very different environment. I’m sure this cultural adaptation helped me with my job and made it easier to live here.\nAll in all, you can say I’ve had the “perfect” immigrant experience that most people would dream of. But what do i think really? Personally, I have come to realize that Canada at the moment does not fit into my personal goals and values and that is okay. Loneliness away from people you love can be tough. It just isn’t the same feeling making new friends and hanging out with coworkers who are much older than you are and in a different place in life. I’m very close to my family and friends who I’ve grown up with and are on the other side of the world. My parents are getting older and I want to spend as much time with them as possible. For that reason, I might consider being somewhere closer to them. I’d perhaps consider coming back here some day when I’ve got my own family and kids which I currently don’t have. To me, that’s a personal value high on the list. I guess my only takeaway from this video and advise to people looking at each of these points - take each one and compare it with your home country. If you think you’re better off in Canada, then move - it’s a great place! If not, think about it real hard and weigh out the pros and cons.

No one seems to be sticking up for Saskatchewan. I'm from Ontario but love the place. Rather than being empty, looking out across the prairie you can see forever. The cities may be smaller but they are complete not narrow and that also means easier to get around in. Little wonder folks from places like the Dakotas come up for some culture.

Life is excellent in Toronto and southern Ontario so I'm not going anywhere. If I were forced to move, I'd pick Ottawa or Kingston (both also in Ontario, of course). Out of province, my first choice would be Halifax for sure (all of Nova Scotia is pretty special) and probably St. John or Charlottetown next. On the west coast, Victoria just edges out Vancouver in my books. A little surprised that Quebec is first in your ranking but I do love visiting there. Alberta is gorgeous but culturally it's vibe is more American than Canadian. Anyone else find that?

Canada is what you make of it. You can arrive rich and end up poor and you can arrive poor and end up rich. In between that, you can have a great life that balances your needs. I’ve seen immigrants succeed simply because they see the opportunity in front of them . They worked hard in their own counties to stay just above the poverty line ,but when they apply that same effort here it pays off ten times greater. I feel that compared to a lot of immigrants, natural born Canadians come across as spoiled and a little lazy…we are. We haven’t had to struggle the same way someone from a poorer country might have. I’ve talked to people who’ve worked ten to twelve hours a day just to stay afloat. If you did that here you could make plenty of money to live and have some left over. As far as owning a house goes,yes it’s expensive . I feel that homeownership in any country is relatively expensive. Here is a tip; use that soaring home prices to your advantage. Houses are expensive but you can make a lot of money buying and selling. I recommend putting together a buyers group and share the house for a few years, then sell at a profit, buy a bigger house or two smaller houses.try to buy the worst house in the best neighbourhood and fix it up slowly . That house could double in value in five or six years in the Toronto market. This is nothing new of course ,the people from India and China seem to do this a lot here ,it drives up prices and profits. On the downside to this ,you are now part of the problem. As the housing prices are driven up the non wealthy can no longer afford to own a house . They are at the mercy of high rents with no rewards of ownership. They are caught in a cycle of hard work and (relative)poverty. This could also be you if you can’t keep up the house payments and are forced to rent.\nHow well you speak English is important but your native language is also useful here because Canada is half immigrants . As a Canadian that speaks only english (Irish descent)I have to say to all newcomers that I’m very impressed that you have learned a new language and that you may even speak more than two! Don’t be embarrassed about your abilities . I find that in my experience , Canadians do not look down on people just because they don’t know English. In fact ,I’ve known people that have lived here for decades and still know very little English. They are comfortable in their communities and they function just fine. Learn as much English as suits your needs and be proud of any gains you make.\nOutside of Toronto are other cities that you might consider when looking at southern Ontario.From my experience,most are generally the same, just not as big . There are large immigrant communities in London Ontario, Hamilton and just outside of Toronto where housing is just a little bit less expensive but the commute to work is probably longer. This is just my opinion but in the small towns there are less people of colour , (which is what people of no colour call everyone else . I wonder if I’m called a person of no colour in some other culture ? LoL ). That might make it harder for you to feel integrated ,if that’s what you want. I’m not saying that people from other cultures can’t make it in a small town , I’m just saying that it’s definitely not Toronto . Here, people of any nationality can feel like they have a place where they can belong . It seems that no matter where you are from ,there is a community already here that’s set up restaurants and stores and clothing shops and newcomer support systems. And if your from Portugal or China or India or Africa or the Middle East, there are large groups of your kin here that have established roots for generations and you probably know this already.\nToronto means meeting place and that becomes evident quickly. I was born here and it’s one of the things I love the most about my city. I’m not going to say that there isn’t systemic racism here ,the people of no colour still kind of keep the top position , but as we become a minority in a decade or so ,I hope that will shift to a broader spectrum. It’s certainly happening already. One good thing is that the police department tries to hire people of colour so that racialism may play a smaller role. We’re getting used to seeing our politicians more and more reflect their constituents.\nI have to talk about the weather. Because I’m from here I’m used to the extremes of minus thirty and plus thirty . Eventually you get used to it (somewhat). Dressing in the right clothes is important. Summer is easy , but winter is different. It’s trying to kill you. Spend the most that you can afford on winter cloths . If you can afford a quality parka you should get one. The hood can be drawn around the face and stay out of the wind.\nIf not ,think of layers with a outer layer that blocks the wind. We have things called long Johns that are basically full length thick cotton or nylon pants that go on under your pants and a pair of extra thick socks. Buy your boots to fit your thick socks. Try to get the best boots you can afford ,it’s something that you might spend a little extra for but never regret.\nAll in all we are a fairly organized and peaceful society. Most people are friendly and will give you a chance . We have a good social safety net here and you don’t have to be homeless or starving if you don’t want to. There are people and organizations set up to help ,that truly try to get people back on their feet. It’s a good investment that pays off in ways that matter for the quality of life in a big city. I’m not putting my American neighbours down when I say they do things differently. They have their ways ,we have ours. This is just something that we do because we’re trying to learn how to help those that society has discarded or can’t find their place. Sure we have one or two areas where the homeless have pitched tents and we have some resources for them if they want. Unfortunately The mayor recently forced a small camp to move from a very visible place to more scattered locations. There were social workers involved as well as protesters trying to protect them. I didn’t like that happening and I want to see even more resources dedicated to them ,but on the other hand ,we are trying to avoid something like what happens on the streets when it’s just ignored. When I see YouTube videos of the streets of Philadelphia I’m extremely saddened. I thank the lucky stars that I was born in Toronto Canada.\nFor all it’s pollution and expense and crowds ,I think it’s a great place to do almost anything your heart desires . For every ugly building there is a beautiful park ,for every honked horn there is a birds call , for every cold and dark day there is beautiful sunny one around the corner.

I love Canada it’s people it’s culture am very happy to be here

Thanks for making this video. After nearly 13 years as of Jan 1st 2022, I'll be leaving Canada on a one-way ticket; not to my country of origin, but further into new ventures.\n\nIt's been a slog to become a citizen and try and make life work here. It's a good place to be successful financially if you make sound choices, and then to live a fairly quiet, isolated life. If all you want is to live within your own ethnic community and have a better quality of life, it's a good place.\n\nUnfortunately, it's never had enough culture or meaning for me. Life feels pretty empty no matter how much money you make. The national identity being based around home-ownership feels extremely depressing to me.\n\nAnd you're both on point about the reserved, passive-aggressive nature of Canadians. I've become like that too now. It's pretty obvious that it costs us dearly; people are unable to be genuinely warm, to take risks and form real friendships. Everything feels surface-level because no one risks taking the steps that might even be a bit of intrusion into each other's lives that is the signal of the start of a close friendship. I'm sick of the surface relationships I've had here.\n\nAnd the wholesale import of U.S. narratives with complete ignorance of our own realities. Most Canadians think they live in the U.S. and seem unable to name a single important issue in their own province or country. I truly came to see the Canadians as a colonized people who refuse to truly admit that they are colonized behind a thin veneer of insecurity posing as a virtue-superiority complex.\n\nI sound harsh but it's the outpouring of someone who's fallen in and out of love with his country.\n\nI don't know what I will find on the other side, but it's going to be different and I honestly can't wait.

Much love from the UK ❤️ We can relate to number 3! Lol... we complain about the weather all the time, its *deeply* ingrained into our culture, being an island nation!\n\nI lived in Canada for 5 years from 1988-1993 in Hamilton, Ontario. Some of my first memories were going to George R. Allen school and the Jewish synagogue next door which ran a kindergarten.\n\nAlso, regarding your comments on healthcare in Canada, in the UK we have to pay for medicines (sometimes) if not claiming welfare, so its comparable.

A compelling documentary, thank you. Why is it that black people continue to be so demonised and de-humanised? It is such a shame that follow Asians and even American Natives play such a role in perpetuating racism against African descent people, but I guess they have their issues of identity. Real shame nonetheless, but one thing at the time, we still have a bigger hurdle to overcome.\n \nOf course, it is still not easy to be a black woman, man or child today. Sadly our mothers are still crying for their children being killed or overly punished by the police institution, our kids are still targeted if not simply despised for being beautiful, bright, talented, lively and brilliant beings with deeper skin tonalities, and hair that speaks for us otherwise. It is still dangerous because there is so much hatred across the world against us as we are coming to understand. And hatred is unpredictable. It comes in different ugly shapes. \n\nAfrican descent people are institutionally exposed to a lack of opportunities based on race, leading to the disproportionate poverty levels in our communities, and poverty brings your far closer to crime. That should not be so difficult to calculate. We're faced with higher mortality and disease rates, covid 19 has rubbed that to our eyes, care systems medical world is in less favour and neglect black communities. On a day-to-day, I am so insulted about the security guard that follows me in the shop, it is so disrespectful and embarrassing, that makes me move suspiciously indeed, yet so low and ignorant I don't even want to have to confront the issue. \n\nI agree with the writer who writes about his experience (and shame?) of being a black man in Canada- the same is institutionally reflected in Europe and across the world let's not be naive, we're not welcome but they should know they have no choice. I believe what he really is trying to express is based on the fear of being a black man in a hostile environment, but we should certainly have nothing to be ashamed of. \n\nOn contrary, we should be very proud because we are still here, like any other citizens paying our taxes and playing positive roles in society by major. We have positive role models are everywhere, from the single mother raising her children with force and determination to the black father who teaches at a local school, from the black girl who's achieved top grades to university to the black young man who's been headhunted from the medical school. And all of us who are just trying. \n\nLook closely. While the media will continue to do its good job demonising and stereotyping us negatively, let's not forget that we are real people with real accomplishments who have always made impactful contributions to society. \n\nHere's the thing, we are admired, loved and celebrated because of the brilliance, talent, charisma, swag and wealth we bring to contemporary culture. Everyone consumes black culture, from the filler lip service to the quick fix tan, from rock and roll to hip hop and RnB music, to sports athletes to the amazing creators out there, no need to mention names. But, we also are doctors, politicians, judges nurses, waiters, carers, scientists, builders, bankers, entrepreneurs, employees or unemployed. \n\nSadly on a day-to-day, we are not viewed as equal people, with equal rights and needs, who, by large, just want the good for our children, our families, neighbours and indeed countries. STOP INSTITUTIONAL RACISM. We are real mothers, real fathers, real children who have a birthright to equal treatment, respect and human dignity, whether or not you choose to disagree.

reverse discrimination \nONLY VS real canadians . \nIMMIGRANTS cannot respect Canada by pretending assimillation - THEY MUST PUT CANADA FIRST. racism does not exist in Canada - but DISCRIMINATION of our shared Canada Culture sure is being ERODED by minority rights ? no. by REAL canadians who LOVE Canada see their culture DISRESPECTED in sound and sight if not force of will. ?yours.

Very well done! In Canada we are not really patriotic, we love being canadian but we ca speak more freely against it then in the US. We are more free in general because of the global safety. The culture is not only related to money. And lastly we are more aware or interested in the rest of the world. That being sais the last 4 years had destroyed the american brand, so I hope that Canadian way of living will rub off on the US so it would create a more stable and better world.

Friendly? Polite, perhaps. You have to love the reserve of Canadians, but they're not as engaging as folks in the States. Furthermore, while Canada is perceived as friendly, when it comes to cities, those in the Southern US consistently rank among the world's friendliest and most polite. Many, of course, can be violent. Also, are you serious about the shared tipping culture? And the bit on service? Your vid was solid and magnanimous, but on those points you missed the mark. Badly.

I loved Canada but not much the USA. Canada has the modernity of the US but with the culture of Europe, people are much more normal in Canada for sure..

I am a powerful woman raised by my grandparents and my parents in an amazing family. I identify myself as a woman of colour, amazing colour, it embraces me and reflects back my beauty for all around me to see. We were given every opportunity to explore the world where we lived and had passion for reading books, I was encouraged to explore so much of the world and ideologies. Issues of racism existed around me and this was unquestionable, but we had a safe place in a family with committed parents to develop and make our mark on the world. How refreshing to explore the world from a safe place and our parents especially my father encouraged us to mix with people of all cultures, because he firmly believed and I also believe there is only one race, the human race. We look different on the outside but let’s enjoy the fact that God made of one flesh all people. So, impressed with my amazing grandparents and parents... I love myself and I love the world that we live in, even though everyone is not perfect, we are are amazing. I was born in Jamaica, raised in England, UK, and now live in Canada.

I love Canada, I have a lot of family in Toronto and have been there many times as well as Montreal and Vancouver. Tbh, there’s no place like the US. We have all types of climates and geography. From deserts, tundra, rain forests, etc. We have some of the best mountains, beaches, and cities on Earth. If you like cold weather, stay up north like Chicago or Boston. If you like normal every season weather, we have many places for that. Mediterranean weather in California, and tropical weather in Florida. We have it all. We have the best sports fans in the world and every sport is accepted here. You can even see so many people play Rugby and Cricket in many parks. Many great universities throughout the country. Best attractions in the world for all age groups. High pay and decent cost of living in most part of the country. Supercar culture is the best in the world especially in SoCal (my personal favorite), TV and entertainment, and the list keeps going on and on. I know that the government in this country is pretty messed up, but hopefully that will be resolved in the future. I also respect the safety that Canada has, but have to admit that Toronto is getting pretty dangerous in some areas. Plus the History of America is amazing. I really do love Canada and would live there if I had to move out of the country, but there’s no place like the USA. ??❤️??

I love Canada it's so beautiful I just love the culture, people, and especially the scenes e.g Canadian Rockies :D

I know this seems weird, coming from Europe, but I absolutely love North American food culture (Mexico, Canada and U.S.A). Firstly they all drink A LOT of cola and although their food is unhealthy it just taste soooo good? I’ve only eaten American food outside of America and I have never been there, but I hope I can come someday and try some of the fast food restauarants we don’t have here like Wendys or Taco Bell.

My opinion is... I love both countries cause they speak English. \nThe reason I love the USA = Big pizzas, and burgers\nThe reason I love Canada = Cold climate, friendly people\n\nDisclaimer: I've never been to this countries before, hope someday I'll go and experience their culture ?

I am Pakistani but I love everyone and every culture

My advice is to Islam loving people dont come to west . We haven't invited you into our country . If you come you need to behave and learn national eticatte of the culture you coming into .. freedom is not absolute as what you think . Ok

Lovely Canada is truly regressing to ancient times! \n\nHow many masked women will it take for the “progressives” in Canada to finally see that they are dragging their beautiful modern culture back to a meaner time in history! \n\nNon-assimilating people from the most intolerant Muslim countries, where genuine toxic masculinity reigns and rules women like they are property...how is that a future for Canada! \n\nCanadian women aren’t pouring into Pakistan in huge numbers demanding they be allowed to wear bikinis at every swimming pool ! \n\nMuslims dare to play the victim and they feel entitled to tell Canadian Civilization how it should be! \nWho are they to lecture Canada on Human Rights!!!!!

please leave English culture as it is. I love English Pubs!

Hmm..i dunno.. I think you're disrespecting Islam if you move to the West...\n\nIf you wanna support it so much and you love it, then maybe you shouldn't of moved to the west. You're ditching your culture for a place populated with christianity and other religions..

You gotta love this 'cultural enrichment'

THE CANADIAN GOVERNMENT IS RACIAL BATING...VERY SAD TRUDEU \nWHY IN MY LOVED COUNTRY YOU PLAY THE PLOITICS FOR VOTES...\nWE LOVE ALL HUMAN BEINGS AND CBC YOU NEED TO BE ASHAMED!!!\nMy daughter is Indonesian and my wife is Thai... Stop it CBC you are creating the devide with our cultures.... Sick Journalists trying to make a make when the know nothing about nothing but social media. Live it before you spout your mouth...Crap News CBC

if you love your culture so much stay in your country don’t force anything on anyone

Islam is not a religion. It is a culture of death towards infidels this is any person not an islam. This is a death culture and we will pay the price for being such a peace loving society. Just look at what's happening in Europe now\n Canadians need to pay attention to the end results in Europe.

Here is a perspective by Dr. Peter Hammond. Dr. Hammond’s\ndoctorate is in Theology. He was born in Capetown in 1960, grew up in Rhodesia\nand converted to Christianity in 1977.\n\n\n\n\n\nAdapted from Dr. Peter Hammond's book:\nSlavery, Terrorism and Islam: The Historical Roots and Contemporary Threat:\nIslam is not a religion, nor is it a cult. In its fullest form, it is a\ncomplete, total, 100% system of life.\n\n\n\n\n\nIslam has religious, legal, political,\neconomic, social, and military components. The religious component is a beard\nfor all of the other components.\n\n\n\n\n\nIslamization begins when there are\nsufficient Muslims in a country to agitate for their religious privileges. When\npolitically correct, tolerant, and culturally diverse societies agree to Muslim\ndemands for their religious privileges, some of the other components tend to\ncreep in as well.\n\n\n\n\n\nHere's how it works:\n\n\n\n\n\nAs long as the Muslim population remains\naround or under 3% in any given country, they will be for the most part be\nregarded as a peace-loving Minority, and not as a threat to other citizens.\nThis is the case in:\n\n\n\n\n\nUnited States -- Muslim 2%\n\n\n\n\n\nAustralia -- Muslim 2.5%\n\n\n\n\n\nCanada -- Muslim 2.8%\n\n\n\n\n\nNorway -- Muslim 2.8%\n\n\n\n\n\nChina -- Muslim 2.9%\n\n\n\n\n\nItaly -- Muslim 2.5%\n\n\n\n\n\nAt 3% to 8%, they begin to proselytize from\nother ethnic minorities and disaffected groups, often with major recruiting\nfrom the jails and among street gangs.\n\n\n\n\n\nThis is happening in:\n\n\n\n\n\nDenmark -- Muslim 5%\n\n\n\n\n\nGermany -- Muslim 6.7%\n\n\n\n\n\nUnited Kingdom -- Muslim 7.7%\n\n\n\n\n\nSpain -- Muslim 8%\n\n\n\n\n\nThailand -- Muslim 7.6%\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom 8% on, they exercise an inordinate\ninfluence in proportion to their percentage of the population. For example,\nthey will push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food,\nthereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims. They will increase pressure\non supermarket chains to feature halal on their shelves -- along with threats\nfor failure to comply.\n\n\n\n\n\nThis is occurring in:\n\n\n\n\n\nFrance -- Muslim 12%\n\n\n\n\n\nPhilippines -- 9%\n\n\n\n\n\nSweden -- Muslim 8%\n\n\n\n\n\nSwitzerland -- Muslim 8.3%\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Netherlands -- Muslim 8.5%\n\n\n\n\n\nTrinidad& Tobago -- Muslim 10.8%\n\n\n\n\n\nAt this point, they will work to get the\nruling government to allow them to rule themselves (within their ghettos) under\nSharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate goal of Islamists is to establish Sharia\nlaw over the entire world.\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen Muslims approach 15% of the\npopulation, they tend to increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about\ntheir conditions.\n\n\n\n\n\nIn Paris, we are already seeing\ncar-burnings. Any non Muslim action offends Islam, and results in uprisings and\nthreats, such as in Amsterdam, with opposition to Mohammed cartoons and films\nabout Islam.\n\n\n\n\n\nSuch tensions are seen daily, particularly\nin Muslim sections, in:\n\n\n\n\n\nGuyana -- Muslim 15%\n\n\n\n\n\nIndia -- Muslim 19.4%\n\n\n\n\n\nIsrael -- Muslim 16%\n\n\n\n\n\nKenya -- Muslim 18%\n\n\n\n\n\nRussia -- Muslim 21%\n\n\n\n\n\nAfter reaching 25%, nations can expect\nhair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings, and the\nburnings of Christian churches and Jewish synagogues, such as in:\n\n\n\n\n\nEthiopia -- Muslim 32.8%\n\n\n\n\n\nAt 40%, nations experience widespread\nmassacres, chronic terror attacks, and ongoing militia warfare, such as in:\n\n\n\n\n\nBosnia -- Muslim 40%\n\n\n\n\n\nChad -- Muslim 53.1%\n\n\n\n\n\nLebanon -- Muslim 59.7%\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom 60%, nations experience unfettered\npersecution of non- believers of all other religions (including non-conforming\nMuslims), sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia Law as a weapon,\nand Jizya, the tax placed on infidels, such as in:\n\n\n\n\n\nAlbania -- Muslim 70%\n\n\n\n\n\nMalaysia -- Muslim 60.4%\n\n\n\n\n\nQatar -- Muslim 77.5%\n\n\n\n\n\nSudan -- Muslim 70%\n\n\n\n\n\nAfter 80%, expect daily intimidation and\nviolent jihad, some State-run ethnic cleansing, and even some genocide, as\nthese nations drive out the infidels, and move toward 100% Muslim, such as has\nbeen experienced and in some ways is on-going in:\n\n\n\n\n\nBangladesh -- Muslim 83%\n\n\n\n\n\nEgypt -- Muslim 90%\n\n\n\n\n\nGaza -- Muslim 98.7%\n\n\n\n\n\nIndonesia -- Muslim 86.1%\n\n\n\n\n\nIran -- Muslim 98%\n\n\n\n\n\nIraq -- Muslim 97%\n\n\n\n\n\nJordan -- Muslim 92%\n\n\n\n\n\nMorocco -- Muslim 98.7%\n\n\n\n\n\nPakistan -- Muslim 97%\n\n\n\n\n\nSyria -- Muslim 90%\n\n\n\n\n\nTajikistan -- Muslim 90%\n\n\n\n\n\nTurkey -- Muslim 99.8%\n\n\n\n\n\nUnited Arab Emirates -- Muslim 96%\n\n\n\n\n\n100% will usher in the peace of\n'Dar-es-Salaam' -- the Islamic House of Peace.. Here there's supposed to be\npeace, because everybody is a Muslim, the Madrasses are the only schools, and\nthe Koran is the only word, such as in:\n\n\n\n\n\nAfghanistan -- Muslim 100%\n\n\n\n\n\nSaudi Arabia -- Muslim 100%\n\n\n\n\n\nSomalia -- Muslim 100%\n\n\n\n\n\nYemen -- Muslim 100%\n\n\n\n\n\nUnfortunately, peace is never achieved, as\nin these 100% states the most radical Muslims intimidate and spew hatred, and\nsatisfy their blood lust by killing less radical Muslims, for a variety of\nreasons.\n\n\n\n\n\n'Before I was nine I had learned the basic\ncanon of Arab life. It was me against my brother; me and my brother against our\nfather; my family against my cousins and the clan; the clan against the tribe;\nthe tribe against the world, and all of us against the infidel. -- Leon Uris,\n'The Haj'\n\n\n\n\n\nIt is important to understand that in some\ncountries, with well under 100% Muslim populations, such as France, the\nminority Muslim populations live in ghettos, within which they are 100% Muslim,\nand within which they live by Sharia Law. The national police do not even enter\nthese ghettos. There are no national courts, nor schools, nor non-Muslim\nreligious facilities. In such situations, Muslims do not integrate into the\ncommunity at large. The children attend madrasses. They learn only the Koran.\nTo even associate with an infidel is a crime punishable with death.\n\n\n\n\n\nTherefore, in some areas of certain\nnations, Muslim Imams and extremists exercise more power than the national\naverage would indicate.\n\n\n\n\n\nToday's 2 billion Muslims make up 28% of\nthe world's population. But their birth rates dwarf the birth rates of\nChristians, Hindus, Buddhists, Jews, and all other believers. Muslims will\nexceed 50% of the world's population by 2120.\n\n\n\n\n\nAdapted from Dr. Peter Hammond's book:\nSlavery, Terrorism and Islam: The Historical Roots and Contemporary Threat\n\n\n\n\n\n - one of\nMuhammad's wives was 6 when he married her and 9 when he consummated the\nmarriage.\n\n\n\n\n\n- since 1948, the 21 Arab countries have been involved in 30 wars,\n63 successful revolutions, at least 75 failed revolutions, and the\nassassination of 36 heads of state.\n\n\n\n\n\n- Jihad is the second most important duty of every Muslim.\n\n\n\n\n\n- there may be as many as 25,000 Al-Qaeda supporters in the UK.\n\n- Muslims comprise 4% of the population in Denmark, but consume 40% of the\nwelfare spending.\n\n\n\n\n\n- 75% of the convicted rapists in Denmark are Muslim.\n\n\n\n\n\n- Muslims comprise 95% of the convicted rapists and 85% of the\nconvicted murderers in France and Italy.\n\n\n\n\n\n- the average European woman has 1.5 children, the average Muslim\nwoman living in Europe has 7 children.

I grew up in Brampton in the 90s. Sure, it's become a lot more crowded. But still I love it here. The people are nice and I get to experience so many cultures. I've even had free lunch many times at the Sikh temples here. For people hating Brampton and saying USA is better, have you ever been to The Bronx NY or Newark NJ? They look like third world countries and you can't go out at night. I don't see any reason for hating Brampton other than racism.

I'm muslim but i dont like the arabs muslim (not all arabs but mostly of them) becuz of the way they behave. They are refugees from their own country but they are disrespectful to their destination country. The arabs are not grateful with what they have been given from the other country. If They wanna be one of the majority community, then they have to be thankful and accept the culture of the majority community .They must be fluent and well spoken in english too. Not force the other people to accept their bad culture and not just think about the passport of the country they want to live in and get benefit from it. \n\nThose muslim country that are non arabs are living in harmony. They are much more better than the arab country. They treat their own people well. and open minded. They love to make their country more better and developed. \nBut the arabs love war .... abandon their own people struggling and dying for living...narrow-minded people...women abusing and have less the right...women cant drive...(what kind of that ideology)...This bad things isnt in non arab muslim country... They make our religion more become worse..if you heard about terrorist or that kind of the bad thing , its not the muslim..its about the arabs... we non arab muslims arent represent all of it... sad to be a muslim with this bad people...we are the white muslim, malay muslim, turkish muslim, middle asian muslim, chinese muslim, japanese muslim, etc. The non-arab muslim and Islam doesnt represent the arabs.

Africa for Africans, Asia for Asians, White countries for everyone IS White Genocide.\nIts a crime, not a policy option.\nAlways good to point out that the transformation of Canada from a 96% White country was the result not of love for humanity but of hatred for White people.\nAccess to White people is not a human right: Enough.\nThe racial and cultural identity of Canada is legitimate and defensible.

This is a pretty misleading video.\nYes, our minimum wage went up to $14/h compared to the rest of Canada, however keep in mind it had to accommodate to the cost of living. You're lucky if you can even find a LEGAL small 1 bedroom basement for $800/month. Its not common. \nA car? Brampton has the highest insurance premium in all of Canada. \n\nDon't get me wrong. I LOVE Canada, I couldn't see myself living anywhere else because it is my home. \nHowever, when you compare it to india, in India you're only paying for electricity, gas, and food that you need to buy at the grocery store. \nBut if you really needed to budget and save money, food is LITERALLY growing in your backyard! All the veggies, fruits, etc. You just need to buy the grains and proteins! \n1.5 lakhs sounds great per month. But 1.5 lakhs is realistically not enough to live in Canada. \n\nDon't believe me? Google cost of living in Canada. Google how much a family of 4 would need to make to survive per month in Canada. Also, make sure to check out CANADIAN WEBSITES for this data. (.ca sites or try Global News or CTV news since they have this data)\n\nThe problem is everyone that comes to Canada always comes only to one area which is usually Toronto! However this makes the cost of living go up to accommodate this many people. Compared to Regina, or St. John's not many people immigrate there! It is a smaller city compared to Toronto but at least it's more affordable.\nDo you're research before coming here. Find out whats the best situation for YOUR FAMILY and what YOU can afford. \nCanada is a beautiful place, and yes, Brampton does have a lot of the Punjab culture, but don't be fooled. Be prepared when you come to Canada so you don't have such set backs once here. \n\nHope this helps!!

Is our country & culture bad to live? These people don’t have pride & love for our Hindustan. They just want to earn money & nothing. It doesn’t matter to them that their country is suffering through many problems & so we should work for our own country. Our culture is best in world stupid folks.

the people in the American continent and other western countries in Europe which are predominately Christians and liberals are now faced with a difficult challenge; since the free western world allowed the Muslim immigrants from the Muslims and other Arab countries to take refuge in their own countries, now they are engaged in a constant battle against their respective contrasting values, religious principles, and cultural practices....the big question now is which thoughts and culture will prevail? because, unlike the conflict on slavery centuries hence, the issue and concern then was merely black or white people or racial (about color of the skin).....now it is more relatively sensitive, complex and extremely serious......my issue thus, is how can a liberal, freedom loving and religious tolerant western society deal with an intolerant, discriminating, extremely arrogant and most often violent Muslim believers living in their own communities.......Clearly Europe and America is being Muslimized..my worry is that Europeans do not see the semblance between Muslim with communism...both seek to overthrow the prevailing order to fit theirs.

Need to send them back to where they came from, or did Canada twist there arms to come there. They love there culture so much they need to go back, not try to change the Canadian culture.

ONE SHOULD LOVE THEIR OWN CULTURE AND LANGUAGE FROM BIRTH TO GRAVE.NO MATTER WHERE YOU MIGRATE FOR ANY REASON.REAL PEOPLE NEVER FORGET THEIR ROOTS AND NEVER INTEGRATE IN DIFFERENT SOCIETY BUT LOVE ALL.\nREAL CANADIANS ARE ONLY NATIVES.ਬੋਲੇ ਸੋ ਨਿਹਾਲ,ਸਤਿ ਸ੍ਰੀ ਅਕਾਲ।।

Love the Islamization of Britain. The arrogant numbskulls who pillaged and plundered India and annihilated our Vedic culture are finally being humbled even if India itself has been long a victim of Islamic invasions.

Canada is a Beautiful Beautiful country , simple example is is me I came as a refugee from Srilanka with $68 , worked few years 2 jobs in as labour jobs... last 3 years I am a full time WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER and I did more weddings wite weddings Black wedding and South asian no one sofare treat me or any incident , Honestly i love them all canada has so beautiful culture ... we are all are canadian and we will support each other.\neven you can see my business portfolio and will you see it www.instagram.com/Dylan_Photographer

Did you feel that this video was quite offensive..!! Means how could you say like that...the culture, the belonginess we have for each other in India, festivals, love and lot more is no way in comparitive to what they have showed up...\nIndia is the only place where there is unity in diversity...\nThey..moneycentric people!!...\nAtleast respect your motherland!!! and this is why you can be unlike them....those native canadians...Atleast they love their country howsoever...

I m living in uk for 10yrs now but i misss India very badly every single day of my life. I love my country and proud Indian. You always have feeling of 2nd class citizens in abroad caz u r. Their culture, food, tradition, belief, child upbringing, husband wife bonding, relatives, friend buying meals, respect etc all very very different than us. And thats wht I love in India n not selfish attitude lonely western life.

Just wanted to say, I’m a white Christian, and a Brampton resident and a high school teacher in here and I love the diversity of culture that Punjabis bring to the community. I’ve worshipped in Gurdwaras with friends. It’s great. \n\nTo me, this is a testament to what Canada and Brampton has to offer the world. All are welcome!

Canada's going to build a wall soon , they are going to get swamped with mexicans on the run whom do not want to get deported. Canada should just over populate with mexicans ,they need more culture anyway, Canadians will love it, and have the mexicans build Canada just like they built the USA . Sharings caring !!! Tequiro Canada /Mexico \nTrump 2020

I live in Houston Texas. People often say that Mexicans take jobs that no one else will do. That may have been true at some point but now that we are overwhelmed by the illegal immigrants every business only hires Mexicans that speak perfect Spanish and not so perfect English. So blacks, whites and other cultures are stuck! If I wanted to live in Mexico I would move there and learn their language why do they refuse to learn ours? I love every Mexican that I have met. I also love water but I do not want to be dropped into the middle of the ocean. There are at least 350 languages spoken in America why are we bending over backwards 2 make our country bilingual to Spanish and not all the other languages?

growing up in canada, i felt left out in the blk community b/c i am a 5th generation blk cdn on mom's side and 3rd on my dad's - when other black ppl not canadian born met me - i tell them i'm cdn, but i always used to get the question - where are you really from - they were looking for me to say the islands - when i told them my paternal grandma was born in 1901 in canada - that's when the questions stopped. i've been told that b/c i wasn't from the islands, i had no culture in college, but a mbr of the black student society put him in his place i heard he got into a lot of trouble. i was asked what do we eat as in food as canadians what kind of music do we listen to - at our blk canadian weddings, the only carribean song played was hot hot hot by arrow - we played straight up r and b and motown. i hv been rejected by other blk men b/c i'm not west indian enough...it was hurtful. even with 'friends' they made of my cdn heritage but i used to think, why are you making fun of me knowing that my family and ancestors were in canada first - they were 1st generation - i live in the usa now and i'm with an african american man - he has never treated me as if i were different and he loves going w/me to canada. my parents told me it was jealousy on those ppl's parts - one guy i used to be friends with in college, when i went to his house, his mom was from the islands, when she met me - she said, 'you cdn ppl are loud' and that did it for me - i didn't date her son but when he met my parents, they never said any of that crap to him. in the usa, the african americans don't treat differently at all - my ex mom in law thought we were american but decided to live in canada - b/c she was surprised that blacks do live in canada. her other daughter in law's family were from the islands - but she gravitated more to my family and felt comfortable around them more than her family and this ex sis in law would brag about the islands this and that and she would make comments about my looks being skinny and such but it was jealousy - i didn't care much for her b/c she was very insecure. i felt once again, i was a young girl in college again - being around island ppl....i would love to meet drake and ask him did he feel left out and isolated because he wasn't from the islands - he makes me very proud being a blk canadian - his dad is african american and his mom is jewish. i still hv dealt w/racism not much with wht ppl, but with my own ppl - which is quite sad and on top of it-colorism, that also played a part from my family - being called pygmy, chocolate dip, nappy hair - it hurt but these so called relatives, they aren't all that anymore, they had hard lives as children...when ppl see something in you that is special and they don't have, that's when their ugliness shows -

Americans are our best friends.......Canadians have a bad perception of Americans, and none of its true......great people, and great country & a great culture.......lived in Michigan for 30 years, and enjoyed every minute.......now I have American son and Daughter, and Michigan born grandkids.......love the USA......Canada really blows.....too socialist
