As a born and raised Canadian I have seen the country become more of a place to park real estate money than a functional society in the past 20 years. Most of my friends, born and raised here too, can't even start families in their 30s a lot of the time, so I cannot even imagine what it would be like for a new immigrants. Our government basically lures immigrants here as a tax raising scheme and doesn't care much for what kind of quality of life they have.

I'm an Indian, born and brought up in India. In 2019, my parents wanted me to go to Canada through the express entry program. My father had recently sold a property and we had a lumpsum amount of money to show in the bank account for this program. However, when I researched and saw that after a Master's degree in India, and while being paid well according to Indian standards I will have a difficulty finding job there even with 7+ years working in the IT sector. I found out that I might have to work in a restaurant in Canada before I could find a job that would suit my calibre, I was totally under a lot of stress. My family kept pushing, but I finally decided to put the money into buying a property in India. I think it's a better decision. I have maids who come to my place to cook and clean and not the other way around. I will never let my self esteem be hurt because I wanna chase some elusive dream. I think the practical thing is to stay here than go there. However, I am open to thoughts, correct me if I'm wrong.

Toronto winter is too long and Vancouver has depressing non-stop rain for six months. On top of all that, everything there got way too expensive to live and everything is too slow... Did I mention endless road constructions everywhere since forever ago? Well, some of us tried very hard to stay but sometimes migrating can help.

As an older Canadian who was educated in Canada with a B.Ed. - then worked away from Canada for thirty of my forty years. There is no way to say that any country is the best one to live in; every country has strengths and weaknesses- that especially relate to your specific needs and wants. Coming back to the country of my citizenship was also extremely hard for me after working away for so many years. The way to do well anywhere in Canada, is to build up credibility/seniority at one job and stick with it. Whether you are university or self-educated- which is considered just as valuable in today's job market- you are going to face an uphill battle unless you are fairly established. Canada has a high level of unemployment and some sectors, have an overabundance of trained workers. When my Middle East friends tell me they would like to live and work in Canada, I give them the advice I would give anyone. First, think about your family or friends that you want to have around you in your daily life- that is number one. Nothing is more depressing than being alone. Weather is a big factor, but it can be tolerated if you are with your core family or friends. One hundred years ago when my ancestors fled war and revolution, they had no choice but to do their best to make a life in a very difficult climate (literally)- culturally and weather-wise. There are a number of refugees today that are in similar circumstances. They do their best to get past the difficulties for the sake of their children's futures. If you are not literally refugees, think hard about you choice to leave your core culture and people.

I have lived in Canada for 30 years. Things back then in 1989 were almost perfect. Housing, cost, jobs, healthcare. It's now getting worse and worse and no positive signs ahead. In the last 10 years until now, if you're sick ending up in hospital, be prepared to wait for a whole day for your turn. There were cases people waited too long to be treated and died (true story). Gasoline price now is $1.34/litre, the highest price in 30 years. Buses don't have transfer ticket like before. Everytime you change the bus to reach your destination you have to pay. Bus ticket costs $3.50 each. Food price is skyrocketing. Internet, cellphone plan cost you at least $60 per month. Salary doesn't increase high enough to cover higher cost of living. I can't wait to leave Canada. Hopefully I save enough money in 5 years.

One last thing I want to say about Canada is during 30 years of living here, I have never seen a real talented PM who is bold enough to put up with US. We export electricity to US but our government never thinks of building greenhouses to decrease food prices that we have to import from US in winter time.

Mass immigration, made cost of goods and essentials go up and wages stagnant. It's supply and demand working , the way it should... My family moved here 1975, they all left 2020, I'm on my way out as well. By the way my grandparents bought 2 houses for $9k in Vancouver BC , last year they were worth $1.7M each , this year they went up to $2M . Cost of living is nuts here...

Great video!!! As an immigrant to Canada from then Czechoslovakia in the 1980, I can say that you are 100% correct in all aspects, my parents and I encountered these difficulties even back then. I stayed in Canada for 28 years, worked there, met my Slovak husband there and now we are living in Ecuador for the last 14 years - I love it here. It was impossible to live in Canada on one pension - I don't get a pension yet, so we live on my husband's - it is possible to do it here in Ecuador. Keep up the great job you are doing with your videos, ladies!

Born in Canada 1984 left Canada 2014. Back again since 2020. Here's what I want to say: Canada's (or Canadians) area which needs growth is communication. Canadians are either silent, or screaming. They don't know how to listen. We don't demonstrate self control in terms of communicating. We are poor at speaking and listening. In conversation, a Canadian will cut you off. Interrupting each other is a normal habit of how Canadians communicate with each other. We do not listen. Even our Leaders can't listen. "Say what you mean and mean what you say" is just not how things are done here. Everybody keeps their feelings a secret. It completely undermines our growth. Respect is not a thing here. Politeness is what Canadians hold as being a classy or good person. It's passive and useless. We got this from England. Politeness when you really look at it achieves nothing. It's a flaky thing. You can be polite and also be anything else at the same time. So Canadians basically say "fuck you" and as long as they were "polite" about it they can't understand what the problem is. Respect on the other hand is not something Canadians know much about. This is because we reject pride. If you reject pride then there is no need to be respectful. What's to respect? The person has no personal pride so how could they be bothered. Canadians ramble on and on and on like Terrance and Phiilip and expect people to never be offended by anything when in fact they are offensive and quite behind the times in terms of being socially conciencious. Again none of this is a problem because in Canada, having personal pride and a sense of self confidence makes u look like a jerk. Like somebody who is "bad". Canadians have much growing to do in terms of respecting each other and learning self discipline and self control. This will greatly effect our ability to communicate with each other and others outside our country and move us forward in our growth as individuals and as a culture/ nation. Up to this point it's still people pointing at the ones who are speaking up and saying somethign as "bad" and impolite". It's ridiculous. And frankly when people do speak up and have something to say, they are awful at speaking. We have no grace. We are a flaky weak people. We have no strength or togetherness. Once again we value politeness as almost a salvation. Politeness is simply not as valueable as we make it out to be. We sacrifice telling the truth for the sake of being "polite". And for good reason. People treat you so poorly when you speak up and say something that might go against the grain or not be super comfortable. Canadians are weak because they live in a comfortable little bubble. They are brainwashed into thinking we are perfect little angels and the whole world thinks so too. This is far from the truth

I simply watched the first 3 minutes of your video and knew that right off the mark YOU ARE PERFECTLY RIGHT. Ontario alone has so many cab drivers that are foreign trained doctors that are badly needed as it has the worst healthcare system in Canada outside of the northern territories. Immigrants coming to Canada are also the best job creators in Canada and as such are much needed since the Canadian government has repeatedly failed to support its own industries and people since the 1950's.

ignorance of the health system that just outpaced the highly vaunted US one during the pandemic. As for our industries a careful examination will lead you to discover that most Canadian heavy industry moved to the US and Mexico thanks to the origional free trade deal.............. Asking questions and doing actual research will explain it all to you. Unfortunately many so called Dr.s that come here from elsewhere just do not have either an equivalent education or English/French proficiency and yes I am very familiar with what I speak. That's not to say that many have that education but have linguistic problems which Canada is willing to help with. Sometimes the problems prove to daunting so moving to the US is easier.

I moved to Canada about 17 years ago and yes it is an absolute pain to jump through all the hoops they want you to go through. I was only here a few days and I came from Ireland as a brick and stone mason they recruited me from Ireland and wanted me to come out. Within three days on the job I learned I would be getting less wages than the other bricklayers. I packed up my tools and walked off the job I notified the employer and the union by emails and told him I’d be flying back home in a few days. Well the union and the employers came running straight away to get me to stay. Trying to explain that after a couple of months I’d be on the same money as the rest of the guys. This is where I explain to them that taking home C$1100 was already a pay cut a massive pay cut as are used to take home 2500 to 2200 Euros living in Ireland. I moved to Canada for a change of lifestyle but that doesn’t mean I was going to be taken advantage of. And that’s when they said they would pay me the same as everybody else. Sometimes you just have to stand up for yourself and be willing to follow through. They even reimbursed me for the airline ticket I bought to go back. Some skill sets they really need in this country in addition Canadians population growth is absolutely dependent upon immigration as the family sizes and birth rates are critically to lol to sustained a country. As I’ve said I’ve been living here 17 years now and I am a Canadian citizen I guess that makes me an Irish Canadian now.

Hi, Irma. I agree entirely with your view that the country has become "too expensive for what it offers," but I think you might want to check on the stats concerning population. While it's true that the *rate* of growth has tapered off somewhat over the past decade or so, the current population is still nearly double what it was in 1968. Indeed, I think it fair to say that one reason for the high cost of housing here is due to the high rate of immigration, with which new housing construction never seems able to keep pace.

Not sure where you ladies migrated from but the healthcare in Canada is terrible for a country that calls itself wealthy! What is more important in life than health and getting timely access to services. I have had to wait 6 months for a simple ultrasound, my friends had to wait a year for an MRI, more than a year to see a specialist of any kind. Not only that the administration procedures are backward where they send an appointment letter by Canada Post (not kidding). Taxes are extremely high! I know doctors who make decent money pay close to 55% of their salary in taxes. Housing in Toronto and Vancouver is sky high and you may be working all your life to afford a 2BR condo. My advice is unless you are coming from a country that is down right terrible (Eastern European, Afghanistan, Pakistan, etc.), it is better to stay home. Additionally, if you think you will ever get rich in Canada, then you must get your head examined by a neurologist first.

You can pretty well study in any country as long as you have financial support to do so and the country you want to study is willing to give you a student visa after you have satisfied their requirements. There is no private healthcare and one must wait. Though I must say that if you have an emergency, you will be taken care of at the Emergency Department in the city you live. I have never lived in Quebec but have heard that there are some private medical options to shorten the wait time but cannot confirm or deny it. Medical services in USA are the world's best and one does not need to wait, including Ultra Sound, MRI, X-rays, and access to specialist because it is a privately run system. Sure, you have to pay a little extra from your pocket but at least you have an option. It is my personal opinion that when a government runs/funds a system it is inefficient and prone to rationing. Canada would be a good place to live, despite cold weather and high taxes, if they can introduce a private medical option (via insurance) along with the government run system, so that when a person does not want to wait can go and get treated in a timely manner.

When she said the Canadians prefer to complain behind your back instead of telling you, I felt that!

I’ve landed in Canada as international student in 2018 and in 2021 I became permanent resident Life here is not all flowers and greens (though life in Canada is much more easier than in India) But i enjoy my life here, even I’m making little as $17 and I don’t know if I’ll be able to get myself property or no, But I’m happy Thank you God!

I support you ladies. Great channel. I am from Haiti and moved to Canada in 2009 after spending some time in Boston. We immigrants are resilient. Keep up the good work, Daughters of Russia.

100% correct. I was one of those who left Canada. The funny thing is I found many Canadians (not migrants) who are engineers worked in the low income jobs in my place and a very good friend of mine who is a Caucasian Canadian at the end moved to South America. Another thing is it is not always easy to move on from low income jobs there. I met an Indian who is an engineer after living there for 30 years became a taxi driver.

Wow what a great and accurate discussion. As a Physician, here from the UK, this is true and things are getting worse. Another negative for Canada is it is a cultural dessert. Also when I came here 15 years ago it was well paid but today not so and when you consider the tax you pay on goods taxes are more like 60% to 65%. There is a huge difference in dealing with foreign and Canadian patients. Excellent blog, well done.

I'm part of that statistic. I moved after 12 years in Canada. I moved to Asia with a one way ticket and have never looked back. One reason why I never thought about returning - one year where I live in Asia is equal to five years in Canada savings wise. Like that old joke back in the 80s, Canadians work for the Government for free six months of the year

The rental housing market in Montreal is so so expensive and horrible,any places renting now for under $1250 .00 have to many problems,from bad noise levels to smokers and pot next door,cockroachs,mold,landlords all charging high prices for dirty apartments,in the last 3 years had to move 3 times do to these problems,just horrible high rents in Montreal,so hard to find a good place to live in Montreal anymore.

I left Canada within a year. Could not stand the cold. It's so depressing. Vast country with beautiful nature makes us lonely. It's costly too

Thank you for sharing! Where did you go after leaving Canada?

Canadian citizen here. It isn't just immigrants; I encountered the anti-intellect societal mentality as well. I had difficulty when applying for entry-level jobs in my field becuase I had a Master's degree and some of the competition (that was usually accepted) had only Bachelor degrees. The critical problem is that a number of companies (but not all) want to hire the dumbest people that are able to do the job, on the presumption that lower education = lower risk of the employee quitting = lower wages, i.e. cutting the bottom line instead of innovating. This also stems from incompetent management who will only hire people lower-qualified than themselves so that they emotionally feel superior. I then got a European Commission PhD scholarship in Poland and have just moved there.

A Masters Degree with zero experience is a mistake, one you have more education but none of it I tried, two you usually expect a higher starting wage ignoring my first point. Most should start at the BA level thenin a few years often decent employer will help you get your masters by giving you paid time to attend some classes.

Yes masters degree is nothing special without experience. Experience is the best thing to have. So many educated smucks here cry they can't find a job in micro biology or whatever degree they spent 10 years to get masters of to go work at Tim Hortons. Education does not guarantee a good job. No no. It's your abilities and experience.

I may be successful now but if i left im sure i would have an easier time then you since i am "uneducated". If anything it makes a person a blank canvas instead of being tied to what major you were
