I blame our current cuck of a PM. Him and his cohorts are too busy virtue signaling to the 1% and sending tax payers money to other nations.. all while ignoring, gaslighting, and lying to Canadians. A change in government won't fix the problem immediately... but maybe just maybe it'll get the ball rolling... Not very optimistic though, dreams of home ownership went out the door as soon as the plandemic happened and the goal post is moved everyday. All too much of a coincidence IMO. Sorry we have to suffer through all of this my Canadian brothers and sisters. We are wayyy too nice compared to other nations...WAY to nice and complacent.
Born and raised in Canada here. Can confirm Canada is a mess in so many ways right now. Our country is dying of political cancer and it is so hard to watch.
The cancer of Justin Trudeau needs to be abolished and the LPC hurt for a generation after the worst leader since Justin’s dad has destroyed Canada It’ll take decades of hard work to fix Justin’s damage and lots of Canadians will lose their homes and jobs in next 2-5 years Justin and the LPC will try to blame everything on the conservatives after PP wins the 2025 election but whoever takes in this mess will be challenged but shouldn’t be blamed for the hard work to clean it up. I’ll be happy to see RE prices crash so much and be proud that young Canadians will be able to afford to buy in 3-5 years I won’t feel sad for they RE investors and foreign buyers from China and elsewhere that performed mortgage fraud and money laundering Justin allowed the mortgage fraud and money laundering to occur and he was proud of it since it increase his and his rich friend’s RE investments in Canada I can’t even call Justin Trudeau a human being anymore. He’s a disgrace to Canada and is a puppet of China and the WEF
Communist subversives using useful idiots (awful people revenging on the world for being born and grifters) using dupes (dead headed bleeding heart NIMBYists) to bring down the system from within and "do it right this time", completely ignoring every single time communism/socialism failed and the fact that putting creeps in charge means everyone else is empty packaging unless they have something worth taking away. THE worst possible outcomes always follow the creeps. Beware.
As an immigrant from a country with a very strong media industry its alarming to see just how weak & timid the Canadian version is. Take Ukraine, in over 550 days of war just ONE Canadian media outlet has sent a reporter 'in country' ONE. The rest report remotely. I do notice the collective media industry do love to reward themselves with award shows which really is pathetic.
I am from South Korea. I came to Canada because it had a lot more affordable housing options than Korea, and the education was way better than the clusterfuck of Korea when applied correctly. I am the first of the entire generation to venture to foreign lands to attempt to make a better living. Went to college and studied marketing, I did. Took me some years, as I had to finish my military service inbetween. Now I am realising we immigrants are here to compensate for quickpy diminishing Canadian population and fill up the most basic jobs that cannot sustain or even begin to afford a better life. Affording a house is as difficult as it is in Korea, if not more difficult. But I am ashamed to return or give up, as everyone is waiting for me to return with good news. I am fucking lost, and I am frustrated.
Just be happy Koreans won't be finding themselves minorities in their own countries like Europeans will in this century, on top of all the adjacent problems.
You have done a lot. You are the first to travel. When you go home to visit or to stay. feel pride. You are brave and with more education than other Koreans who don’t study in Canada. I’m Canadian I am not smart enough to study in Korea. You should feel pride
Being raised in the 90’s, it’s deplorable. There is also an increasing in homeschooling because the education system is falling apart. Lets not mention the health care system.
You should move, then! You can pay for better healthcare, down south. And you'll love their education system, too! It's so much better than Canada's. (If you're wealthy. Obviously, you're not.) And you can buy guns, to protect your fragile little ego.

As long as you direct you anger in the correct direction with knowledge of the real events that led to this The problem that are occuring today are the result of what started back in the late 2000s. The 'Conservative' Harper government eliminated all the Canadian boards for food, grains, resources adn had a war against worker unions. Harper and cohorst then allow massive foreign ownership of everything. Homes, properties, resources. Who now controls the beef industry - Brazi. Pork - China. Grain - Saudi Arabia. Oil & Gas and mining - USA. Inteligence adn security - the USA and Israel. Housing and property - the rest of the world. Harper and cohorts sold Canada off. And then they let the sleazy evangelicals in. Traitors, all of them. Now Canadians can't afford anything and can't control our destiny. Because Canada is not in control of Canada. Billions are being given to Ukraine. Who started the involvement in Ukraine - Harper and the conservatives in 2009, they started funding weapons and training in Ukraine. Don't misunderstand, Trudeau has done nothing to stop the situation. But Harper started it. He and his cabinet needs to be put on trial for treason. And anyone who think Poilievre will do anything, he will be worse than Trudeau. What has that lazy entitled life time politician Poilievre actually ever done than whine, complain and deflect. He has never had a real job. He only know how to suck up to his masters.
As an American I feel for my fellow Canadians. Our countries are both going through similar issues and what we all need to do is show the government that they work for us. Not the other way around
The only advantage we have is our constitution. This is why its so important to force them to adhere to the 1st and 2nd specifically, but all of the other amendments they arbitrarily try and ignore.
Man, there is no one in the US that has enough money to make move to the US. Canada is still way better than the US. And please, keep your sh1tty politic out of Canada, thanks.
YES! Where did it go off the rails?? I wonder all the time why the people don't stand up as a united front and stop the madness. There is no unity against the oppressors.
its actually the ENTIRE western world... not just US or Canada..... Its a planned demolition... Why else would there be open borders? and there is NO WAY for people to force the governments to work for the people... Tooo much power has been accumulated....
@@RedMage117 government for the people by the people. Currently they’re serving entirely their own interests and no longer working for the people. They don’t really give af about the constitution anymore.
It doesn’t matter how many houses they build when wealthy people buy them up as rental investments, and then charge ridiculous rental prices. It still keeps rent high, and the housing market almost impossible for most young Canadians to get into.
There is a housing problem in the US too. Also about the same level of inflation. Is Trudeau to blame for that too? "Deficit spending" does not cause house prices to rise. If the borrowed money is spent to build housing, deficit spending can reduce the price of houses. People do not live in tents because of deficit spending. They live in tents because of the gross inequality in wealth, in which a few people have excessive wealth, while many people have none, or are in debt. Poilievre is repeating the same old, old Conservative "fiscal restraint" line, dressing it up by pretending he cares about the poor.
+hmfoden Just as in the U.S. I believe ALL real estate should be owner occupied by law. That would stop investors from buying it all up and thus creating a shortage which drives up prices.
You mean nobody would be allowed to rent land to another person? What nonsense. If you want to stop foreigners from buying land, make a law that says "Foreigners may not own land within our borders." OR, impose conditions on foreign buyers of land that make it unattractive for them to buy. My solution would be to make all land the property of the People, as in the old days it was the property of the King. Land would be occupied and used according to the will of the People, as stated in laws made by the People.
I am leaving Canada as soon as I can afford to not live on GIS (already, as a snowbird I stay only 183 days). I left Vancouver when over 3 years my rental *room* (not apartment) doubled in rent price. In Calgary, where I escaped to, it being supposedly more affordable, my room rental went from 600, to 660 to 800 over three years. Canada is simply unaffordable and poor value. A more sensible government will not be able to turn it around quickly. So I am leaving.
As a young person going into the adult world, no quote ever nearly matches my current fear for the future more than "You will own nothing and you will be 'happy' "
American here Want us to send some guns over the border? Looks like you might need them in the future.... I feel I should specify this is a joke. ....for now.
My partner and I literally moved to Alberta 2 years ago, realized how cold, expensive, bad the job market was, got super depressed and moved back to the US 9 months later.
I left Alberta three years ago, after living there for 17 years. It used to be a lot better than it is now. You guys moved there at the wrong time, sadly.
@@Xac501 I live in Edmonton now, originally from lower mainland BC. TBF, BC is impossible to afford to live now. My hometown was a blue-collar farming town in the 90s and is now building 2-million dollar mansions for the rich foreigners. Its cold here. I hate the snow. But my husband and I make far more here than we ever would in BC. We own a home, its detached and built in 2010 and we spent the same as my brother did buying an aging, roach-infested 80s condo in Surrey. I see lots of hiring posters, and the oil and gas industry is still in full force for those who are willing to work away from home in camps. The pay is amazing for those jobs.
As someone from the UK. Watching this video the trends are basically identical. Time lines are a little different but it seems most western countries are heading the same way.
No they're not. You can put Canada's real estate side by side any other country in the world and you won't see similar insanity. Pick any country you want. It ain't the same.
Yes, I think we are seeing the beginning of the fall of the Western Empire. These countries will self implode due to mass migration and shift in culture which so many are blind too.
Bought my condo (a 2 bdrm townhouse) in 2015 for just under $130K. My neighbour sold hers - an identical unit - for just over $330K late 2023. Things have gotten insane here.
Its crazy to me that my father was able to build a house, buy 350 acres of land by age 20ish and get somewhat rich without an education. He own 2 trucks, one car, some construction vehicles had horses and other animals to care for his whole life, was able to buy a second house and sell it later. Meanwhile, I'm 37 and don't own a house, have an education I had to pay for a long time, a job that pay just okay, barely any savings, no vehicles. I've seriously been thinking of moving out of Canada for a few years now. I hate the cost of living, the government. I don't like living here at all. The only thing still keeping me here is that the family has always lived in Canada.
Nearly every negative nuance that Jack expresses is a parallel scenario here in the major 6 cities of Australia and, increasingly so in regional areas. The irreparable crux of these issues in both Canada and Australia are exceptionally high migrant intakes. But due to only having a peripheral knowledge of just how excessive Canada’s migrant intakes are I will concentrate on Australia’s. Since the country’s borders were reopened on Nov 3, 2021, there has been a net-increase of the population that’s approximately 750,000 featherless bipeds. Of that number, a STAGGERING 350,000 - about 47% of the total - are people who have gained admission into the country on student related visas. Of course, large intakes of foreign students (classified as being temporary immigrants) are something that Canadians are au fait with, too. Here in Oz, since Jan 2014, so huge has the intake of foreign students been that they are now the ‘COLLECTIVE’ majorities, of 11 of the county’s top 14 universities. But apart from them dispossessing Australians from places in unis their own country they have also dispossessed Australians from acquiring properties to rent. Moreover, the 950,000 international students presently in Australia are the nub of why rents in Sydney and Melbourne are between 20 to 30 percent higher than they should be. Meanwhile, the intrinsic reason why property prices are duly exorbitant here is because of excessive levels of immigration - either temps or permanents. Reputable economists estimate that, for every 100,000 permanent immigrants that arrive in Australia increase the value of a property by 2 percent. Succinctly, governments in Australia and Canada (at the federal, and state/provincial levels), are ALL COMMITTED to large scale immigration programs as the intrinsic means (a Ponzi Scheme) to propel economic growth. This train-of-thinking to all of the rabid economic rationalists is that mass-immigration engenders relentless consumption - therefore, increasing wealth. Alas, the great negatives with immigration into Western nations, over the past 25 years (Jack raises this at the 11 minute and 20 second point), exist with the sociological detriments these from diverse cultures and religions spawn. Quite simply, the influx of these groups has been so immense that they are no longer just significant parts of communities in Canada and Australia and, moreover, Britain, that they’ve totally usurped the predecessors. Their numbers are now so immense in an array of areas that they are the re-colonists.
You can still build houses. I built a house they sold for 700k in Rigaud Quebec (not exactly expensive area) with my ex girlfriends uncle for like 120k (most of which was loaned he didn't even work) with just us her brother, his two daughters who were like 2 and 7 at the time and some friends. It only took two years, with no actual construction workers or etc involved at all. .... You sure you actually understand anything you are talking about?
Not bad politics, just lazy politicians who allowed a couple of really crazy things to happen: namely, the notwithstanding clause that lets politicians deny the rights of their citizens -- used by Quebec against immigrants and to some extent against anglophones. Ontario gov't of Ford has used it I believe. Whoever would allow such a clause to deny rights to citizens is lazy -- they weren't willing to put together the time and energy needed to have a constitution free of such an impediment.
@@basilcarroll9729 Hard to say, probably not. I was talking about the larger limitations on the country's ability to solve problems. Housing and the larger problem of affordability is a very difficult problem that has in the past been solved by recessions/depressions -- not the kind of solutions we want today. Creativity and a willingness to look at what seems to be working in other places should help. Most Canadians are doing as well as we have ever have -- maybe better in fact. I remember the early to mid1980s being absolutely brutal: unemployment through the roof and inflation at the start was worse than today.
I live in the Netherlands, and we have a similar housing crisis. In the 90s, large foreign companies were buying houses as investments, and although there were many warning signals, the government didn't act. And now we have the highest rate of homelessness ever in our history.
This is one of the problems with Canadians. Living in Canada they are spoiled rotten, children who stomp their feet and cry just like a petulant child. When things get tough they cry foul about everyone but themselves. Canadians are the biggest complainers on earth and not one of them does anything to help. I wish they would all move and find out that Canada isn't as bad as the thought.

As a born and raised Canadian, I would highly discourage anyone thinking of coming to this country to rethink their decision. It has become so bad here that I am actually embarrassed and ashamed of this country. Aimless politics and out of touch politicians have ruined this place, and now it seems like everyone is at their absolute worst behaviour since everyone is getting away with it.
The problem is this is everywhere, if you’re coming from most parts of the United States, countries in Europe, Japan, Hong Kong and Australia they’re complaining about the identical thing. It’s a worldwide issue, good luck to everyone
Wow Jack, all I would have to do with your response is to replace the word "Canadian" with "American". It's sad what's happening to our Countries. I'm almost convinced that our Government's are being run by a "Globalist Cabal" that's doing it's been to destory everything our Countries stood for.
I live in Montreal and until last year my income, not very much, was more than enough. Now with inflation 40% goes just to food (basic staples: eggs, oats, rice, margarine, milk, chicken, yoghurt, cheese - whole foods I cook myself, absolutely no junk or processed foods), 30% rent, 10% transportation (subway - I don't drive or have a car), 10% gym membership, utilities and housekeeping, 10% miscellaneous/unexpected - I know how to budget. I don't drink, smoke, take drugs or buy shit - I only go to my gym ($55 a month), go for walks, play my violin and haven't gone out in decades. It's really crazy.

I am a farmer in Nova Scotia. Myself and my farm have been held up as a shining example of innovative success. Until five years ago we were just that. But this last month we have been very seriously considering the prospect of shutting down and selling after farming for four generations, 70 years! it 100% down to absolutely dismal governance on every level; municipal, provincial and federal. This would be bad enough if it was just our farm in trouble, but it is almost every farm that is not under supply management (and it's not that they haven't also been hit hard, there is just a system in place to match income to cost of production). Our input costs have soared and we have had to put prices up which has reduced sales (I can only guess that is because more food is being imported). We grow fresh vegetables and our labour cost has risen from about 45% of gross four years ago to 60%+ this year, minimum wage is up 39% since 2018!! I will be the first to say that my employees deserve a good wage, but there is no way we can recoup this cost! Next year they may all be unemployed. If we have a crisis in housing, we have an absolute disaster on the horizon in food supply. We could very well see starvation in Canada at this rate! My life has been turned into a living hell, I can say that for sure!
You realize Trudeau is a member of the WEF, he was one of Kissinger's flunkies at Harvard - l was warned about this however not given particulars back in 2007,8 - china is buying up American farms and meat processing plants. For this reason alone l am trying to put together monies for a farm or several - l am not a farmer but l think l can fund these farms (farms will be fully functional) with other means once l aquire them. I moved to TN 4 yrs ago - l am on top of a mountain 500acres, wooded no pasture in sight -so l have a lot to do. Oh and heads up, Europe decided it is now legal to put powdered bugs in their flour products. I would hate for something to happen to your farm.
As a Toronto born 2nd generation Canadian whose parents came here from Croatia in the 1970's I thank you for all your hard work in keeping us all fed. Never sell your farm. Don't give in or give up. You are Canada not this tyrannical government

I've lived in Canada for most of my life and I'm considering leaving because it's basically impossible to survive, much less thrive, in a place like this unless you're filthy rich. I'm genuinely considering applying to emigrate to the US, free healthcare be damned (in the end, what you don't pay for healthcare you end up paying triple in rent, food, transportation, etc.)
You should consider moving to eastern Europe, we are still living somewhat normal, rent is not a problem, because of communist housing projects, and because we mostly own our properties and such, just don't bring some woke lunacy please😁

I immigrated to Canada in 2011 and, since around 2015, there’s not a single day that I don’t look for ways to leave this country. It’s impossible to prosper here.
Let me guess: you are in big city? Why not move to rural area where you can actually afford a nice home with land and prosper? Plenty of small rural towns that are very comfy and beautiful to live in. People make huge mistakes when moving to Toronto and then complaining. Toronto is a zoo, and a very dirty and ugly one.

This video sums up why living in Canada feels like a tightening vice right now. Living near Ottawa, I can't afford moving out of my cramped appartment while my landlord started harrassing me over a 15% increase of my rent. I feel more like an investement asset than a f***ng person right now.
makes me so mad. This is coming the the states next. This is obviously attack on democracy from the west. The west pays people here to betray our own people. George soros and his kids are the worlds real life supervillains, and obama too. Barrack started all of this. The middle eastern terrorist
15% is an illegal increase, Ontario's conservatives have instituted a very socialist price cap on rent increases for all but new developments. Move into an older building and then you can drain a landlord by being on the positive side of that equation. It's worth going into debt to move out if they're raising it 15%.
@@game_boyd1644 Everything about a government-imposed price ceiling is socialist. There is NOTHING capitalist about it. A private business of any sort, being forced to have a cap imposed on the prices it charges for its services, is textbook socialism. And yes, I know the differences between Marxism, Leninism, communism, and socialism, so don't give me any of that crap. And of course when you put a price control on something, you tend to create shortages. At least they were sane enough to exempt new constructions so as to mitigate that very sort of shortage, but even the imposition of any price cap has a massive chilling effect on construction on its own, as it sets a precedent for future price caps which may have no such exemption.
Yeah.. as a young person going into university in Canada, I know that as soon as I achieve an education and am fully independent I will have to move out of the country. I really love this country and the experiences ive had growing up here, but I know the way things are right now, its unsustainable to stay :(

I'm sad to be forced to migrate. Not totally sure where to go but this Country is ruined and getting worse.
I hate Air BnB, I mean, it makes sense, you charge hotel rates for short term occupation, you rake it in and move on to the next customer but it is also removing homes from the market.
I just learned that mortgage debt in Canada is larger than the GDP of the nation. Can you believe that? I was shocked. Good night Canada, and good luck.
As one of the immigrants who left in 2017, I saw some of this coming years ago. When you come from a developing country, you learn to tell when the economic winds are shifting and leave as soon as you can before you get caught in the storm. Going back to my home country has worked out very well for me. I wouldn't freak out too much though, I've seen countries go through a LOT worse and still manage to turn around eventually. Canada is a rich country, it will be fine. The problem is that it takes time for things to be fixed; for young people, that can turn out to be a chunk of time out of their most productive years they cannot afford to lose. I still love Canada, plan to return (even part time) one day. This too shall pass.
Maybe less than 20 years, I'm not sure things are that far gone. Canadians are not used to political and economic turmoil so it may feel like the end of the world. Try going through all of that, intense political rivalry that sucks all the energy out of the country and the government being flat broke or drowning in debt. Then we can panic. 🙂We're not there yet. At least we still have educated immigrants to help figure out the challenges. Just needs good leadership to channel talents in the right direction. I'll do my part when the dust settles.@@aaz1992
As a person who lives in hamilton, the homeless crisis is severe. You can't go 2 blocks without seeing a tent city, and not 1 block without seeing someone on the verge of overdosing ( at least down the mountain ). There is nothing being done and even with vacant unused townhouse complexes there is just no help. People are becoming angry with the homeless thinking that its all addicts and lazy people, when in reality alot of my friends, and families with no drug use simply cant afford to live. But we currently have 3 different condos being built worth close to a million each. That will deffinitley help. No mental health assistance, No rehab assistance, No housing assistance. they get overlooked and looked down on. The other day I saw a mother whom I knew, washing her daughters face in the water fountain at the park before school. She lost her apartment due to it being sold to a guy from toronto and rent being almost tripled. She does not use drugs ( not that it even matters if she did ). Its becoming bad when all you hear is talking Ill of the homeless when a good chunk of them literally had no other option despite trying their hardest. I hope this country heals, but as of now it doesn't seem that way.
The majority is addicts and the mentally ill. But the liberal government wants this. Their goal is to create a homeless state. There is no person with less power than a homeless person addicted to drugs.
This is what they turned society when they took us from our roots in nature, where we knees how to build fire and grown food. They gave people easy life easy access to packaged food water and air conditioning. Then they took it away. Industrial revolution? Then how come it devolutions society? People are not meant to live easy lives. We need to go back to our roots, live in nature and forget urbanized lifestyles cause it's modern.
6:05 $300K just to get approval to build a house? Here where I am in Romania it cost me $0 to get approval to build a house. I built it on my own land without notifying anyone from the local authority. The same for most of the inhabitants in the same village. This is what I love about Romania, FREEDOM to build on your own land.
i came in Canada in 2015 the first 4 years were so nice now its a nightmare i'm stuck with my family here with 2 jobs we're still struggling with stupide Turdeau's policy and high taxes spending spending ,Crime and much more , im moving back to Europe next year byyyye Canada you're no longer shining like before , good luck everyone
I am very angry about the state of this country. This is ridiculous and I don't even see a point in trying anymore. I'm still young, I'll leave if I can
You can thank the voters of Ontario more than any other for the state of the country. These people are the most fanatical supporters of the federal Liberal Party, responsible for the state of the country.
The WEF has its claws everywhere... digital IDs next, then government controlled digital currency, then they have total control of your money. There is nowhere to run to, agenda2030 is global directed by the world economic forum. People will need to FIGHT to resolve this!
As another teenager here in this comment section, I am absolutely terrified of becoming in adult in a few years, because it honestly seems like I literally will not be able to afford to feed myself, let alone pay for school.
Pick schooling that gets you into a high value career. Either Medical, Engineering, or Trades. Anything else and you're going to struggle long and hard.
put $10 each week into bitcoin (self custody only - do not keep it on an exchange) and never sell it - treat it like a 401k. This will liberate your generation from the current inflationary monetary system and corrupt governments.
@@mr.mediocregamer9653 Have fun working 3/4 of your waking life away just to afford a slightly bigger apartment. The only thing that can save us now is a general strike and a wealth tax.
You didn't even mention homelessness. I got evicted for no good reason and spent a year in a motel before I found a place to live in a remote rural town. Now I consider myself fortunate because I'm not in a tent and I can afford heat and food. Basic cable. No cell phone. Restrict my car trips severely. Thinking about permanently living in a truck camper. But count myself lucky because I'm debt free. If Canada worsens after a housing crash we can expect crime and civil disobedience to sky rocket. No one will be safe and many will be desperate.
Re: comment: 👆That’s very true! You’re really thinking about this & you’ve got a really good point here. Terrifying is what Trudeau plus the other politicians are banking on. I’m certain of this. They all should then be made to feel like the people who are really homeless & on the streets & having their lives ruined, threatened by drugged up or mentally unstable people who will kill if they’re out of their minds. Well then, how about the politicians who come across as they’ve got our backs => Bull shit on that statement! Let’s place them on the streets for however long we choose & see how they feel about their new lifestyle! Some life?! 🙄
I spent the last 16 years of my life living in the same city this video started on (Waterloo,ON), and now I am sitting down typing this comment in my native country of Colombia. I'll be forever grateful for the opportunities I had to learn english, get a good education and have a lifestyle that many fellow Colombians can't, but if you had asked me 5 years ago that I'd be moving to Colombia because I did not see any kind of future for me in Canada I would have laughed. I really felt this whole video on a personal level, and it is sad the state of things in Canada, I felt stuck, not really seeing a life where I could do more than just get by - and mind me I had a good paying job and great career growth opportunity - ultimately the real cost to live in Canada no longer justified itself. I really do feel like the first wave of a larger movement, where it is still seen as taboo or underground to move from Canada, people here in Colombia sometimes don't quite understand, but I'm confident we will see many more people leaving Canada for other countries whether it is their homeland or not. I don't know if Colombia is my final destination, nor will I shut the door on Canada forever, but right now a return to Canada seems distant.
Haha dude it sucka ass so bad. But you know what I hate more than all of this? The spoiled brats whose parents bought them a house. I hate those fuckers with a passion.
The only major difference in Canada in the past few decades is mass immigration of greedy, selfish rich *(word that has 6 letters) and is a race. The problem here lies that the countries that immigrate to Canada, are not solving their internal problems and instead leaving them behind. All the while they bring them here, greed and rich selfish people are causing our country to become a shithole. Deport people while we still can regardless of what they want. Norway did this, and now it's Norway again.
You pretty much have to hunker down with roommates and get that per person rent under $1000/mo if you can. Then you can work hard, take all overtime, and get your savings rate to a reasonable level.. I did that... lived VERY cheaply ($50/yr entertainment budget) for a while, until I could save up enough for a downpayment for a home. It was a 10 year endeavour...
Me too. I don't know if I have a "good paying" job or not. But I know, between myself and my wife having full time jobs, we can only just barely make our mortgage payments, bills and other cost of living expenses. I shudder to think what the world is going to be like in the future for our 5 year old son.
I'm leaving the island for the interior next month. It's not as expensive but still ridiculously expensive compared to a few years ago. Being single doesn't help, even making a good wage.
Canada stopped being amazing for me after I joined the workforce in COVID-19. Being overworked, underpaid, and under-appreciated by jobs that were ridiculously hard to get despite being low-wage grunt work in an economy where everything was so expensive nearly broke me mentally and spiritually. I didn't work so hard in school and sacrificed so many opportunities to socialize and party in my youth to get straight A's in order to have the life I do now. The entire world desperately needs a hard reset if the young adults of my generation are ever going to have a chance to have a fair shot in life like our parents did.
Sure but if you work in a kind of hostile low-paying job long enough you can afford to rent a bedroom with 3 other roommates in your 30s and 40s with 'stove rules' and have enough left over to pay for the mobile phone and data with the remaining 10% of your income. Hang in and you can afford your own room at the seniors housing (the one where they put mentally ill and rehab people too) and at 70 get FREE government suicide machine death. Huzzah Canada!
It took me three years to find a job, the only one I can get is dishwashing. I used to have a goal in life. Now I can't even go to school for said goal, because it's so fucking expensive.
you let too many tresspassers in. come to mesa arizona many homes being built. but if you are a straight a student who works with his hands, go get a A&P liecense airframe -powerplant and work on airplanes. leave the grunt work to the trespassers
You are keeping him in office and you watched the corrupt RCMP refuse to investigate him AND DID NOTHING!!!!! So if you don't like it here, shut the f up unless you are prepared to do something about it cause I'm sick of hearing the whining.
I am Canadian. My family came here 200 years ago. I live in the same cow town I was born in. Went away for education and came right back. I grew up in a political family. My Dad ran for MPP. There was no problem disagreeing with him, just explain why. Despite this, I stopped voting in 1989 because I saw no connection between what a politician said and then did. Start voting again in 2015, after proper pronouns/compelled speech. We ain't voting our way out of this one fellow Canucks. Canada is finished, waiting it's managers/owners to come out of the shadows. Canada was destroyed by Canadians for interests outside Canada...there's no happy ending here kids.
Canada is rapidly becoming a communist country! Get out while you can but then where can you go? The world is getting ready to burn! WWIII is right around the corner. Become a prepper while you can! First, they will disarm you then they will enslave and kill you!
Nope, there is no happy ending in Canada. You said it perfectly. I'm moving to Mexico in a few weeks (4th gen Canadian) ... I literally can't afford to live here any more doing a regular honest job. A country which sh*ts all over its productive citizens deserves to DIE. Let it.
This man is spitting nothing but truth! Don’t let the 3 major telecoms companies deter you! (Bell,Telus, ROGERS). The monopoly they have over this nation is scary.
Grew up in Canada, moved to the US in 2000. Loved it (as a young adult), the fact that it was similar in culture, but cheaper. Moved back to Canada a few years later and felt that Canada had changed a bit, but nothing too bad. Moved to the US again in 2012, got a green card (on track for US citizenship), and have a family now... Moving down when I did was one of the best decisions I've ever made. Canada is almost unrecognizable today (late 2023) vs the place I grew up in. I would dread for my kids to grow up there (as it is). :( #IAMCanadian
I grew up in rural S.W. Ontario, and moved to the USA in June 2000. I was 31, then. It’s so sad to see how everything has changed and you’re right, it’s nothing at all like I grew up! My memories of growing up there are honestly wonderful. This is just so sad to see! I pray for change to come very soon. Great people, with a horrible government!
I think this is crisis of capitalism in general. Exact the same or very simmilar problems can be experienced in US, Slovakia, Czech Republic, any other EU or european countries. I think that even China or Japan have this problems. I have no picture how politics is working in Canada, but people that are losing trust in state institutions, capitalism and democracy as a system is completely fucking my country. More and more people wants communism back, and russian propaganda spreads like never before despite the fact that we are Ukraine neighbour. We have elections going in two weeks and populists, neo-nazis and mafia is going to win it, release all the jailed criminals and made all the problems even worse.
If underpaid immigrant-built houses aren't affordable, what makes you think canadian-made houses will be? Investors bring money to the country, shoo them away and either tax, inflation or debt will be needed to pay for that awful "free" healthcare you canadians love so much.
Investors buying large % of property is a symptom of high prices, not the cause. Investors, foreign or domestic, wouldn’t want to buy housing in the first place if prices weren’t bid up by too many people trying to live in too few homes.
I’m a Canadian on the east coast. In the last few years I’ve watched the homeless in my town increase steadily. When I catch the bus there is regularly 10 or more. They live on the bus taking it from one end to the other to stay out of the cold.
Ditto. We’ve watched our bought and paid for political elites sell the country down the river to their globalist masters. It’s treason, and the guys who fought or died in both world wars must be spinning in their graves.
@@MrCleitus indulge the hyperbole, friend. I’ve traveled the world, and however you might want to define “great”, rural Canada where I grew up was the greatest place I can imagine.
Can confirm about the insane rent hikes. In 2016 I was renting a 1 bedroom at 77 Parkwoods Village Dr in Toronto. The rent for 1 bedroom was $1100 in 2016. I just checked the website and omg it's $2445 for that same unit
It's a bad example at least that's actually in Toronto, try paying that in thunder bay. It makes sense that cities with great services and weather cost a lot. This new wave is beyond that. It's now in places where you'd never choose to live.
I'm from Brazil and I'm 32 years old, down here, we all grew up having the word "Canada" as a synonym for a role model to be followed by a country seeking success (together to Scandinavian countries + Switzerland, it's common here to hear people saying stuff like "this city is a Norway in Brazil" - like, when the city has a high standard, "do you think that voting for this guy will make our country a Switzerland in such a short period of time?", "hey, watch out for your stuff, here's not Canada")...my country's been always a mess in every sense, but seeing the otherwise "1st world countries" following suit is too crazy for my brain to process
in terms of irresponsible resource extraction, Canada has long been called 'the Brazil of the North' (eg pelletizing old growth forest for power generation in Korea and the UK)
I'm also from Brazil and I can second and confirm everything OP says. Every day I think about leaving this hellhole, but it is starting to feel like there's no longer any place to run to.
In 2006 I emigrated to Canada and after spending more than a decade struggling to make ends meet, I finally realized I was broken and left Canada in 2018, never to go back. Enough is enough. Things are much better for me now. Don't miss Canada a bit.
I was driving with my brother up to Northern Ontario to help him move in to his new place and I mentioned how there's tons of new houses being built around our old neighborhood and he just replied: 'Those aren't for us.'
We litterally let OTHER COUNTRIES export their housing/overpopulation problems to us. Why the fuck do we even let that happen bruh. My family came here 30 years ago, and it was a genuienly nice country back then. But bro ever since Justin Trudeau, its been a litteral nose dive.
Ready to leave? So am I! I bought my first house in 1999 while making 18.50$ a hour and still had enough to by a new mustang. Now I make about 45$ a hour and can't afford to leave the house....
All of this is because Canadians are WAY TOO PASSIVE. A passive population is one ripe for exploitation, and repression. We brought this on ourselves with our silence. And we are agreeing to it, thus we deserve every single thing that has happened and will happen to us should we continue to stay silent and complacent.
Canadians are also very gullible and easily programmed. From cradle to grave you are brainwashed into hating your very generous neighbor and thinking they are less than you, because they are scared you will leave and take your tax revenue with you. It works like a charm for Canadian serfs too. You may be "morally superior", but we have far superior mind control programming here and most of us have broken the conditioning. Your amateur hour mind control has Canadians uniformly nodding and laughing while they sip their champagne-like beer while the savages down south drink swill.
I spoke with two visiting Canadian women who were amazed and a bit worried to hear Americans openly criticizing certain politicians. They couldn’t believe it. One of them said that most Canadians would never dare to publicly criticize Trudeau. Wow.
@@byteme0000If there's no criticize or opposition of certain statements then we humans have a tendency to go too far. Also if you don't protest or fight for your rights , you will suffer.
Same in Norway. Just a couple weeks ago, my city council was handing out free new clothes for immigrants down at the volunteer café where they meet once a week. They get pretty much everything for free in their lives here. It sure feels like a replacement.
Sister of that picture< do they give them 2200$$$ a month too? Medical, housing, clothes, food gimme gimme gimme....what the Hell is going on? Is the great reset?? What if we "GET THEM OUT"??? How can we put up with these 'parasites'????
Great summary. Like others have said, the country is a total mess. I came here in 1976 with my parents. My dad made $25/hr in the 80's when a decent house in Niagara was $125-$150k. Through hard work my parents were able to attain their dream. Unfortunatley, in 1988, free trade came into being and all the middle class manufacturing jobs dried up. 2 of the 3 GM plants closed. That was the beginning of the erosion of the middle class here. Im 52 now, i finally got into a stable job paying $30/hr five years ago but its too late for me. By the time there was enough money for a down payment, covid happened and the price of houses here doubled. The dream of owning a home here is shattered. You can barely buy a war time shack for $600k here now. And honestly, why be mortgage poor just to own a home? What kind of a life is that. Its great for those that already own but impossible for anyone else. The line has been drawn. You made it or you didnt. The ladder has been broken. Im dusgusted with the lack of leadership and greed with our political and private business elites. This is not the country I grew up in anymore.
In Canada, individuals living in cars due to partial homelessness result from a complex interplay of factors. High housing costs relative to income, stagnant wages, and income inequality drive this issue. Job loss, weak social support, medical expenses, evictions, and lack of affordable housing also contribute, while systemic problems and inadequate policies further perpetuate the phenomenon.
Considering the present situation, diversifying by shifting investments from real estate to financial markets or gold is recommended, despite potential future home price drops. Given prevailing mortgage rates and economic uncertainty, this move is prudent, particularly due to stricter mortgage regulations. Seeking advice from a knowledgeable independent financial advisor is advisable for those seeking guidance.
I've remained in touch with a financial analyst since the start of my business. Amid today's dynamic market, the key difficulty is pinpointing the right time to buy or sell when dealing with trending stocks - a seemingly simple task but challenging in reality. My portfolio has grown by more than $600k within just a year, and I've entrusted my advisor with the task of determining entry and exit points.
@@ThomasChai05 I've been thinking about going that route. I have a lot of stocks that I have maintained, but they are beginning to lose value, so I'm not sure if I should hold onto them or sell them. I feel hiring your investment coach would make it easier to restructure my portfolio.
I'm guided by *Camille Alicia Garcia* An experienced coach with extensive financial market knowledge. While you can consider other options, her strategy has yielded positive results for me. She offers valuable insights, including entry and exit points for the securities I concentrate on.
Thank you for the information. I conducted my own research and your advisor appears to be highly skilled and knowledgeable. I've sent her an email and arranged a phone call. Her expertise is impressive, and I'm eagerly anticipating our conversation.
As an American living in the Seattle area, I went on a tour bus through Vancouver, BC as part of a celebration for finishing a large project at work. I remember the guide pointing out typical urban houses (like in Seattle) that were selling for $500,000 CAD. It was 1996. The nightmare had already begun.
@@effenbeezeetravel4474 Nah. It's the other way around. Relative to income, Vancouver is even more expensive than New York. It's too funny (or tragic, if you are Canadian) because wages in Seattle are around 60% higher than Vancouver.
You'd like this comment I made above.. Don't vote for Klaus's boy - Prime Minster Woke next time. Seriously have you seen that picture of Trudeau with old Klaus at the WEF. The old guy and the directionless young "boy" who found a father figure that would finally give him some self-respect as a "male". Certainly, Trudeau was directionless in his earlier life having funked out of engineering school, dropped out of grad school, and being forced to resign from his teaching post. It's a classic setup - it's as old as youth gangs, religion and the miliary - give a directionless male self-respect and they'll do anything for you, (even mess up a country) because my "all knowing father" says it's the right thing to do and it's how I gain virtue as a male in his eyes. The way Trudeau acts - his lack of direction as a young man, his feminist orientation, his propensity for costuming, his over emotionalization in public and appealing to the feeling mind rather than the analytical mind, his choice of English rather than a STEM major, even his hair and youthful face suggest he's a bit short on a masculine persona that old Klaus could fix... Too bad Canada.
I feel for all my Canadian neighbors. Not that the US is doing well right now, but Canadians are suffering more. The US has “a Trudeau” as well, his name is Gary Newsom. He managed to destroy California in no time. There’s a mass exodus away from California due to his dystopian way of ruling the state. Instead of trying to fix the problem, this dumbnut is attempting to solve the exodus by trying to implement a 10 year exit tax, whereby those leaving the state will have to continue pay taxes to CA for 10 years, while simultaneously paying taxes in the state they moved to. In a way forcing CA residents to stay in CA due to the financial burden would be impossible to manage. What used to be one of the most attractive states in the US, is now a dystopian nightmare that just is getting gradually worse. North America is need of cleansing. Vote for candidates that can achieve this. If you continue to vote for these guys, we’ll then you know what to expect. Klaus is as close the Bond villain Blofeld as can get, evil personified.
I've lived in Canada my entire life and I've always been very proud to be Canadian. I've never traveled outside of the country, I take all of my vacations in Canada. And I am at a point where I want to move to America
I was incredibly lucky to buy my home in the US in 2018 before all this madness started. Now I have reps for Blackrock and other corporate real estate empires spam calling me day and night telling me that if I’m interested in selling they’ll give me more than a fair price!! No thanks I’m good… if I sell to you, I’ll end up having to rent from you so I’m good!
As a Québécois. Each time I get up in the morning, right after I spit on Canada flag and the picture of England King, I kinda begin to feel bad for anglo-canadiens
My fear is when people feel they have nothing to lose, something very very terrible will come out of it. Almost to the point of unimaginable. I have read enough history to know what desperation can bring out of a populace.

I don’t think these crazy elites understand how much danger they are in. If I were to somehow wake up 10 years later and I learnt that all of them were put to the guillotine during a revolt , I would be shocked but not surprised. I don’t think these people in their cozy, multi million dollar houses understand this!!
@@alexinfinite7142 Riots would in my opinion be the least of concerns. I fear some French Revolution/ Reign of terror type event with tens of thousands being declared “enemy of the people” and put to death is not as far of a possibility as people think it is. I honestly don’t! But all westerners have forgotten what it’s like to live in a time of turmoil. I come from the third world and moved to Canada a few years back. I don’t think they realise just how dangerous the game they are playing is!!
Yeah, but he's a kook to boot. Mikey isn't a soothsayer. Anyone following news and finance saw this approaching. It was Covid precisely that many did not expect with a global economic shutdown of a few years.
Bubbles don't deflate. They burst. Someone is going to get stuck upside-down on their loan owing a million dollars for property worth $150K. People will go bankrupt. Banks will fail. Socialists will want to bail out their donor friends using tax money. We saw all this in America in 2007-2010.
I would like to point out that the more people who receive income/revenue from the government, the less likely that voting will result in calls for less government spending and waste. Massive voter groups that get paid out of the tax base in Canada are not just direct government employees, but entire industries such as medical care and education at all levels...and now also virtually all media and communications.
The best comment of this thread so far. And let's not forget Relentless and unrestricted Mass immigration to this country where the third world immigrants are dependent on the government and will always vote liberal or NDP to keep their cheques coming in
The U.S. is quickly following Canada's lead in this pattern. The main culprit is the private investment trend. Groups are investing with regular returns that are payable monthly. No one, however, is noticing the ethics behind their investments. These massive surges in investments are not building homes for sale. They are empowering conglomerates to cash purchase real estate and to build at epidemic levels for over inflated rent. This lucky gold pot is rapidly costing us all precious housing. We are headed in the very same direction. 😔
I respectfully disagree Danielle. The U.S. is in far better shape in just about every category compared to Canada. Canada is in the worst shape out of the Western countries BY FAR. Once the global recession/depression is over, Australia will come back strong. The UK will be about the same as they are today. The U.S. will be more powerful. Canada will have a dismal future. The U.S. was propping Canada up for over 60 years and that's over now for the most part. Orange Donald dropped Canada for a new trade relationship with Mexico (which will be much more successful) and Canada lost all their goodies and freebies. Biden refused to change it, but you won't hear that in the media. It's over for Canada. EDIT: Biden held strong on ALL of Trump's new trade deals. He refused to change any of it with any country. Look into it it's true.
Investors wouldn’t want housing in the first place if the prices didn’t keep getting bid up by cramming more and more people into too few homes. In other words, investment % in housing is a symptom of high prices, not the cause of it.
My grandparents moved here from Holland post ww2. My great grandparents on the other side moved here from England post ww1. They all chose to move here because they saw Canada as a place where they could have a future. As a child in the 80s and 90s I felt proud of my country. I realized I no longer feel proud, and I worry sincerely for my future. If I could go build a house in the woods and go full self sufficient I would in a heartbeat...
Nearly every negative nuance that Jack expresses is a parallel scenario here in the major 6 cities of Australia and, increasingly so in regional areas. The irreparable crux of these issues in both Canada and Australia are exceptionally high migrant intakes. But due to only having a peripheral knowledge of just how excessive Canada’s migrant intakes are I will concentrate on Australia’s. Since the country’s borders were reopened on Nov 3, 2021, there has been a net-increase of the population that’s approximately 750,000 featherless bipeds. Of that number, a STAGGERING 350,000 - about 47% of the total - are people who have gained admission into the country on student related visas. Of course, large intakes of foreign students (classified as being temporary immigrants) are something that Canadians are au fait with, too. Here in Oz, since Jan 2014, so huge has the intake of foreign students been that they are now the ‘COLLECTIVE’ majorities, of 11 of the county’s top 14 universities. But apart from them dispossessing Australians from places in unis their own country they have also dispossessed Australians from acquiring properties to rent. Moreover, the 950,000 international students presently in Australia are the nub of why rents in Sydney and Melbourne are between 20 to 30 percent higher than they should be. Meanwhile, the intrinsic reason why property prices are duly exorbitant here is because of excessive levels of immigration - either temps or permanents. Reputable economists estimate that, for every 100,000 permanent immigrants that arrive in Australia increase the value of a property by 2 percent. Succinctly, governments in Australia and Canada (at the federal, and state/provincial levels), are ALL COMMITTED to large scale immigration programs as the intrinsic means (a Ponzi Scheme) to propel economic growth. This train-of-thinking to all of the rabid economic rationalists is that mass-immigration engenders relentless consumption - therefore, increasing wealth. Alas, the great negatives with immigration into Western nations, over the past 25 years (Jack raises this at the 11 minute and 20 second point), exist with the sociological detriments these from diverse cultures and religions spawn. Quite simply, the influx of these groups has been so immense that they are no longer just significant parts of communities in Canada and Australia and, moreover, Britain, that they’ve totally usurped the predecessors. Their numbers are now so immense in an array of areas that they are the re-colonists.
@@markferguson7563 Yes, I agree with your comments. The funny (sad, not haha) thing is that with the world population on the cusp of dropping precipitously I can see other countries start to put an end to emigration by means of incentives to stay, which will put an end to the "gravy train" that the countries with high immigration have come to rely on. We need to start finding other ways of keeping our economies strong without importing people, because that importation is going to no longer be an option in the near future, as far as human history goes anyways.
@@Shridra What you say has validity with some countries, but absolutely not with what the majority. Of the majority is the entire continent of Africa. And where ever you travel to in any big city in Europe the African diasporas are always sociological and economic disasters, which cannot be said about other groups. But whether they are poor or successful, they all fracture the social structures of the host societies that attracted them to migrate in the first place. This is entirely due to them wanting to maintain and perpetuate their cultural and religious traditions. All of which is a recipe for disaster. To prove that occurred last week with the violent clashes between Hindus and Sikhs in Toronto and Vancouver over the murder of the latter's clique.
@@markferguson7563 ah, yes, you may well be accurate in that. Where I live specifically the majority of the incoming non "native" population is from the middle east, which I'm aware is beginning to have similar population issues as other developed countries, and the countries I was thinking of. But you are correct, Africa, and specifically sub Saharan Africa is, at present, not suffering from decreased fertility. I know there are still countries where the average fertility rate is 5-6 children per woman.
I'm from the US and have many Canadian friends plus I've visited there about 50 times since the 1980s. I live about a 12 hour drive from the border so it's not like I live near Niagara Falls or International Falls, MN. I have always loved visiting and enjoyed the people THOROUGHLY!! That's why the current conditions are so heartbreaking. It's not like it's much better in the US of course. I think any "Western" country is now a sh*thole thanks to our "leaders".
@@waynegabler6570 It was all seasons due to work and play. The work was in Mississauga. The play was 95% of the time 300km north of border in summer and fall. I also went to Ft Colborne and London in the fall.
I live in Waterloo and I'm a small home builder so this hits home. Big bureaucratic governments at all three levels, are solely to blame for the housing mess we are in now. Noise study, archeological study, geotechnical assessment, shadow studies, site plan approval, parkland dedication fees, river conservation authorities, schoolboard fees, development charges and the list goes on and on and on of of things that have next to nothing to do with building homes getting in the way. We need to make it WAY easier to build homes. All of this bloat, must go!
The archaeological survey is actually pretty crucial because if you do build a home where a potential site is, you could destroy evidence forever while building the foundations - or bury it under someone’s home. I know it seems unimportant but almost everywhere else around the world does it, it’s hard to care about a past our families may not have been apart of, but it’s important to try to understand why finding indigenous settlements or tools of the past could be impactful
@MCernoble Thank you for providing an example of an opinion that works to keep housing costs high and new homes that much harder to build. Arch studies are completely nonsensical in almost all cases. If it's a virgin piece of land next to a river or lake then okay, but it's absurd to be putting that requirement on infill developments and fields that have been farmed for generations which municipalities love doing.
Well the public employees like to get homes to buy, and the taxpayers fund those public sector employees. The money flows, the low wage citizens are out of the market. Rewarded with the house, picked for the upstanding middleclass, the way all imported European legacy works. Change will not happen.
Hit the nail on the head showing how bad it is getting in Canada for sure. And you didn’t even cover how our healthcare system is also slowly collapsing due to shortage of workers and supplies, long waiting lists, overworked staff
Healthcare is collapsing because we are tired of being Overworked, Underappreciated, Understaffed, Blamed for everything, Abused and reprimanded for being abused. I've been a PSW since 2018 i know people who have been there longer, I know nurses who say it is the same thing where they work. IF you take pride in your client and do your job? Management punishes you. Don't you dare use Progress Notes, Don't you dare make sure the client is taken care of quickly, Don't you dare assure / re-assure them, Don't you dare give them more food (Retirement home), Don't you dare give them more liquid (Retirement home / Coworkers not wanting to toilet client) Healthcare can be fixed very easily by having a Government official step in and say "No, This is how it's being run" No more managers that hide and only come in to stir up shit with the floor staff, No more Lazy Employees on their 50th smokebreak expecting non smokers to pickup slack, No more Unions that don't do their jobs / take bribes and drop cases for it. Do your job or GO HOME / NO JOB.
When you import millions of people into this country, most of them low skill labour and uneducated refugees from middle east and africa, who fleece the system, including healthcare, this is the natural result.
I see a lot of people coming here for work, and deciding about a year later to go somewhere else. A friend of mine from Iran basically said that her husband was pushing for them to move back to somewhere around the Arabian Gulf. He had only just been in Canada for around a year before he thought the whole thing was a giant tax scam. She had waited 2 years for him to be able to move to be with her and their kids. Both she and her husband hold PhDs, her in molecular biology and him in management and finance. Honestly, I see his point. I also live in Calgary where things are bad, but they aren't nearly as bad as out East. It is possible for the economy to recover, but the massive government overreach? That's a way bigger problem. Trudeau is an idiot despot and the coalition he has formed has barreled through many regulations and ideas that make absolutely no sense. At one time it was a coin toss for me whether I'd vote for the Liberals or Conservatives, and I had to look at the issues to figure out who was a better option. Now, I don't trust any of them. I worry Pierre Poilievre just gives a lot of good sound bites. The NDP are a bunch of pinko-commies and the People's Party is lost in some libertarian fantasy land. The Green Party are what they've always been, laughable. If the Marijuana Party wants to make a comeback, maybe they can manage this better. Perhaps a government that's as baked as a Bob Marley tribute concert will be too chilled out to exercise all of these unreasonable government powers they've accrued.
Face it -- you're a disgruntled right winger. You are pissed off because your party keeps losing elections (federally). Now you''re disgruntled about your favourite party too. You will vote for Poilievre, that's obvious. Maybe he will even win the election! Your "lack of trust" is just bellyaching, the whining of a right wing snowflake. Gee, it's terrible in Canada! We have a "despot" ruling over us who doesn't even try to stop you from calling him names. Most despots do NOT allow that. The NDP regularly attracts millions of votes from Canadians -- just look at what happened yesterday in Manitoba. If the NDP is pinko-commie,so are millions of Canadians who vote for it. Can you stop the whining for just a little while and suggest something positive for a change? Or is that too much to ask?
I believe Poilievre is more than a sound bite .At worst by far the least ugly contestant, at best a turbo charge for the economy .I am not inexperienced when it comes to Politics. Despair only gets in the way of rational thought .Listen to long version discussions with Jordan Peterson etc. Perhaps forget the sound bites Best Ji S.
Trouble is: there aren't that many jobs that need that type of immigrant. Every time they get one of those jobs (generally via a diversity program) a classic Canadian with likely better education gets booted. Goofy good natured Boards of Governors trash the types born here without a thought.
I work in a union, I have for 15 years. I make "good money" but still live paycheck-to-paycheck. I live in an apartment. I got laid off last week because my industry (highrise construction) is terribly slow right now due to interest rates and investors pulling out. I've been out of work for 1 week now and my rent is due in 3 days. From missing 1 week of work my account is already in the rears and I can't pay my rent.
It isn’t just the present government we have to worry about, it’s the big investors who are bleeding the people like the parasites they are. A revolution is in order and not just in Canada. Corporate greed has got us here and our governments have allowed it. They can’t be trusted to work for the interests of the people. Stay strong and healthy fellow Canadians. We need to change our thinking. Band together to support each other financially . Families need to learn to live together in one house if need be. We have always been proudly independent but the current system is making it impossible to do so.
Harper definitely didn't so us any favours, and Trudeau just isn't working hard enough to fix the mistakes of the past. You think Pierre, another career politician who has never had a real job in his life, will make things better?
Sometimes I think that the Maritime Provinces would be better off to be an English Colony. Before confederation there was a referendum to become part of Canada. The vote was 99% NO but yet here we are
Ya'll took the bait, and went hard left with the facilitation of toxic university teachings. Every woke graduate with a degree contributed to building the prison you're currently in..
I'm from The Netherlands. We're doing our utmost to keep up with you guys! Seriously... the entire Western World is going downhill FAST. And yes, it does look/feel like a cultural/moral/economic collapse. Interesting times.
Its mostly self-inflicted. A lot of people just don't the reality of what has caused this but there has been a major cultural shift in the last 2 generations. The western world has moved farther and farther left and turning away from religion more and more. They have been electing (or not protesting power grabs) more progressive and more leftist politicians to the point of insanity. This is what they do; the marxists and communists which is who these progressives really are like Trudeau. They destroy countries and have no tolerance for dissent they could care less about the people; you can clearly see by the liberal government in canada's decisions. They are making the country unaffordable, giving themselves unprecedented control and less safe for Canadians and don't care to change anything. Also you dare to have a mask mandate protest in ottawa? Trudeau calls you fascists, refuses to even address their concerns and promptly shuts it down using police and seizing bank accounts. A lot of the left wing politicians have ideas so radical these days they are unrecognizable in their policy from just 15 years ago. Thats the problem. Get them out and elect more center or right wing governments and a lot of this will be reversed. The economy will recover because business and capitalism will become a priority again, countries will become more protective and not want to get involved in as many wars, mass immigration will be back under control, and crazy woke ideas like forcing parents of transgender kids to get them permanent 'gender change' surgeries, allowing biological men to compete with women in sports, openly discriminating against white people because 'oppression' will slowly die out. And no, if you elect a right wing majority nobody's rights will be taken away. Just look at the US: the 'big bad' trump got in and his administration did nothing to discriminate against minorities or LGBT americans. They lost zero rights and nothing changed, thats an irrational fear the true left wing scumbags told people that would happen if you elect a 'fascist'.
But we always have hollywood.....and. gaga....and beance...or whatever. They all eat very well. Media people report I g. Making millions per year.....so.its all.ok....is it?
The similar things goes down in Lithuania especially with ecology and trying to destroy agroculture. Thought our government was expecting Russia to attack us so that they could flee to their summer homes without any backlash and they were trying really hard to provoke Russia to attack.
I'm a Canadian that's been working in the US for the past 8 years, so I've been a bit ignorant of what was happening. Doing some catch up now and I'm absolutely shocked by what Trudeau's government has done. I'll come back in 2025 just to vote Pierre in and pray he's able to accomplish even half of what he say he'll do.
Its incredible to me so many people see the problems now, have relative solutions, yet none of them are being employed. Canadian politics have been completely captured by private interests.
The corporations and private industry will NOT do any better. Reagan's "trickle down" mainly helped the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. The corporations have NO OBLIGATION to "pass the profits" down to the commoners. Just look at Kansas during Sam Brownback's time in office.
You mean like the firemen, police, doctors, nurses, teachers, the armed services etc., they all provide government funded services. Reagan was an asshole who sold his soul to the US elites, such one liners were leant at General Electric when he was their marketing spokesman. The US is going down because of neoliberal jerks like him. One of the biggest reasons that house prices and rents are so high is that the government stopped building them itself (while allowing mass immigration) as Singapore does to keep prices in check.
Architect here - the series of hoops we need to jump through with different levels of the government to get new construction approved is insane. By the time we get there, 1-3 years later, the client has exhausted their budget and is too scared to break ground. The fees for everything are insane and you're met with a lotttt of pushback. Hiring an architect used to be something that any middle class Canadian could do for a new build or renovation, now the only clients coming my way are commercial developers and the ultra wealthy.
Rules are there so builders don't build like China do. Simple as that. Regulations are to protect the public and let me tell you, it is absolutely necessary. Even with the best regulations, we still find crap building in everywhere in Canada. I bought a condo and let me tell you how bad that shit was; The kitchen storage area was not in the right wood we wanted, so as the color of the floor (they didn't match at all), there was no isolation in the north facing wall, but the pipes ran in that wall making it just a question of time before they burst from being frozen, the roof was faulty so the water was able to come in when there was wind, the climatisation unit was install on the wall but the pipes which was suppose to run through the appartment were not connected, and just push up in the wall... And it was already infested with mices... And you know what that fucking APCHQ ass of sociation told me when i wanted to sue the builder? ''We are sorry you have such trouble with your lot but we cannot sue them, we can only give you advices...'' My reply was ''So you basically protect the bullshiters...'' and i hang up. My and my Mom lost 80,000$ in that 'adventure' and we were very lucky to find a buyer that was able to take the lot, with all the problems it has, as he was able to do the renovations himself. Because of low mud life rotten building contractors around to scam people, you get to ' jump through hoops' before approval and that is again a good thing. I hope i enlighten you about why regulations exist and garanties are asked before hand. Not saying it help the market, espacially now, but the public must be protected at least a minimum...and it is the bare minimum right now...
@@jessikapiche6097 Wild because most of the houses from the 70's I've worked on were built better than these shitty lego houses that new development produces. These new houses use "stick building" methods meaning that have absolutely no ability to take stresses beyond the intended tolerance. They also don't really look like homes and feel more like old age "homes".
@@ramsaybolton9151 before the 70's the houses were constructed badly but, they were solid indeed. What they lack in conformity, they had in honesty. No one would have left a half work done in those times. All in All, rules are there so the constructions should be done better, i am not saying they are or are gonna be, but it is still better (espacially with the scammers that are all around) than leaving the field all open for mediocracy. Now what we need is more power to sue the ones responsible for their mess and lack of integrity.
Pierre Poilievre talks about all that red tape bureaucracy. He made a detailed video about it if you haven’t watched it yet. Hopefully he gets elected next year.
I feel blessed. I have had to cut back immensely. Cell phone with no data, heat off unless it's -20C, and I buy groceries based on sale prices vs what I actually need. My saving grace is that my brother rents me his nice sized condo for $1000 a month plus utilities, so $1200 in reality. 1100 sqf on the main, 2 bedrooms, 2 1/2 bathrooms with a good sized single garage. If I had to rent in the real world, I'd be broke. The thought of people not eating because they have to pay rent breaks my 60 year old heart. This is not the Canada I grew up in.
Leave! go out and see the world. You will realize a lot. Everything in this video pretty 17:54 much applies to the entire developed world right now. Canada govt may not be perfect but by no standard is this anywhere near the evil that exists in the world.
@@knzzzz318 You're right, other countries are also having problems. But I think by comparison Canada is going downhill far more quickly. Just compare the increase of housing prices from now to five years ago.

Its not just the collapse of Canada but the collapse of the entire system that the world has built on over decades or maybe even centuries Stay strong out there everyone
Don’t do it. Your education and work experience outside of Canada will be negated. You will start from scratch and have to get a survival job. Canadian Experience is a way to get safe immigrants to pay immigration fees ( 10,000+) and there are no jobs or exams to prove competence. 40% of immigrants leave in 4 years because of lack of jobs. These are professionals. The rest usually stay because they want a better life for their kids.
There’s no reason for an Australian to visit much less immigrate to Canada; there’s nothing here and the climate is grossly inferior. The only advantage of Canada is proximity to the US, making it easy to vacation there if you have money; much better is actually immigrating to and living in the US.
Dude... Back when McDonalds paid $11/hour here, Aussies earned like $20-25/hr for the exact same job. I don't know what they get now but australia is way more livable if you are able to survive all of the world's most dangerous venomous creatures trying to kill you every minute
But we have beance...tatlor swift...and rappers...media people making millions. Dana bash....etc...what not do we need? We are soo lucky....and can buy a normal house for 2 million....
Honestly same here in Germany. Rent in my city has doubled in some places. Housing crisis are real in many countries. In my eyes it's the economic system we chose. Housing has always been a playground for investors not a basic human right. As long as people make profit with housing, housing won't be affordable. The market will fix nothing. It's time for regulations.
@@stephenthomas1492 Two different things. Diversity doesn't mean housing crisis and doesn't have anything to do with it. Equity or equality ACTUALLY includes that housing is a basic right and has to be affordable.

Not very optimistic though, dreams of home ownership went out the door as soon as the plandemic happened and the goal post is moved everyday. All too much of a coincidence IMO.

Born and raised in Canada here. Can confirm Canada is a mess in so many ways right now. Our country is dying of political cancer and it is so hard to watch.
Love the “Political Cancer” comment !!!
So true…..

This is the way of the whole planet
The cancer of Justin Trudeau needs to be abolished and the LPC hurt for a generation after the worst leader since Justin’s dad has destroyed Canada
It’ll take decades of hard work to fix Justin’s damage and lots of Canadians will lose their homes and jobs in next 2-5 years
Justin and the LPC will try to blame everything on the conservatives after PP wins the 2025 election but whoever takes in this mess will be challenged but shouldn’t be blamed for the hard work to clean it up.
I’ll be happy to see RE prices crash so much and be proud that young Canadians will be able to afford to buy in 3-5 years
I won’t feel sad for they RE investors and foreign buyers from China and elsewhere that performed mortgage fraud and money laundering
Justin allowed the mortgage fraud and money laundering to occur and he was proud of it since it increase his and his rich friend’s RE investments in Canada
I can’t even call Justin Trudeau a human being anymore. He’s a disgrace to Canada and is a puppet of China and the WEF
Communist subversives using useful idiots (awful people revenging on the world for being born and grifters) using dupes (dead headed bleeding heart NIMBYists) to bring down the system from within and "do it right this time", completely ignoring every single time communism/socialism failed and the fact that putting creeps in charge means everyone else is empty packaging unless they have something worth taking away.

As an immigrant from a country with a very strong media industry its alarming to see just how weak & timid the Canadian version is.

I am from South Korea. I came to Canada because it had a lot more affordable housing options than Korea, and the education was way better than the clusterfuck of Korea when applied correctly. I am the first of the entire generation to venture to foreign lands to attempt to make a better living. Went to college and studied marketing, I did. Took me some years, as I had to finish my military service inbetween. Now I am realising we immigrants are here to compensate for quickpy diminishing Canadian population and fill up the most basic jobs that cannot sustain or even begin to afford a better life. Affording a house is as difficult as it is in Korea, if not more difficult. But I am ashamed to return or give up, as everyone is waiting for me to return with good news. I am fucking lost, and I am frustrated.
Just be happy Koreans won't be finding themselves minorities in their own countries like Europeans will in this century, on top of all the adjacent problems.

The problem that are occuring today are the result of what started back in the late 2000s. The 'Conservative' Harper government eliminated all the Canadian boards for food, grains, resources adn had a war against worker unions. Harper and cohorst then allow massive foreign ownership of everything. Homes, properties, resources. Who now controls the beef industry - Brazi. Pork - China. Grain - Saudi Arabia. Oil & Gas and mining - USA. Inteligence adn security - the USA and Israel. Housing and property - the rest of the world. Harper and cohorts sold Canada off. And then they let the sleazy evangelicals in. Traitors, all of them. Now Canadians can't afford anything and can't control our destiny. Because Canada is not in control of Canada. Billions are being given to Ukraine. Who started the involvement in Ukraine - Harper and the conservatives in 2009, they started funding weapons and training in Ukraine. Don't misunderstand, Trudeau has done nothing to stop the situation. But Harper started it. He and his cabinet needs to be put on trial for treason. And anyone who think Poilievre will do anything, he will be worse than Trudeau. What has that lazy entitled life time politician Poilievre actually ever done than whine, complain and deflect.

As an American I feel for my fellow Canadians. Our countries are both going through similar issues and what we all need to do is show the government that they work for us. Not the other way around

It doesn’t matter how many houses they build when wealthy people buy them up as rental investments, and then charge ridiculous rental prices. It still keeps rent high, and the housing market almost impossible for most young Canadians to get into.
The idea is to build affordable housing that ordinary people can afford.
lol. And apparently it’s not even Canadians buying the homes and renting them. I hope this is wrong. But still. 😏
There is a housing problem in the US too. Also about the same level of inflation. Is Trudeau to blame for that too?
"Deficit spending" does not cause house prices to rise. If the borrowed money is spent to build housing, deficit spending can reduce the price of houses.
People do not live in tents because of deficit spending. They live in tents because of the gross inequality in wealth, in which a few people have excessive wealth, while many people have none, or are in debt.
Poilievre is repeating the same old, old Conservative "fiscal restraint" line, dressing it up by pretending he cares about the poor.
+hmfoden Just as in the U.S. I believe ALL real estate should be owner occupied by law. That would stop investors from buying it all up and thus creating a shortage which drives up prices.
You mean nobody would be allowed to rent land to another person?
What nonsense. If you want to stop foreigners from buying land, make a law that says "Foreigners may not own land within our borders." OR, impose conditions on foreign buyers of land that make it unattractive for them to buy.
My solution would be to make all land the property of the People, as in the old days it was the property of the King. Land would be occupied and used according to the will of the People, as stated in laws made by the People.
I am leaving Canada as soon as I can afford to not live on GIS (already, as a snowbird I stay only 183 days). I left Vancouver when over 3 years my rental *room* (not apartment) doubled in rent price. In Calgary, where I escaped to, it being supposedly more affordable, my room rental went from 600, to 660 to 800 over three years. Canada is simply unaffordable and poor value.

Nearly every negative nuance that Jack expresses is a parallel scenario here in the major 6 cities of Australia and, increasingly so in regional areas. The irreparable crux of these issues in both Canada and Australia are exceptionally high migrant intakes. But due to only having a peripheral knowledge of just how excessive Canada’s migrant intakes are I will concentrate on Australia’s.
Since the country’s borders were reopened on Nov 3, 2021, there has been a net-increase of the population that’s approximately 750,000 featherless bipeds. Of that number, a STAGGERING 350,000 - about 47% of the total - are people who have gained admission into the country on student related visas. Of course, large intakes of foreign students (classified as being temporary immigrants) are something that Canadians are au fait with, too.
Here in Oz, since Jan 2014, so huge has the intake of foreign students been that they are now the ‘COLLECTIVE’ majorities, of 11 of the county’s top 14 universities. But apart from them dispossessing Australians from places in unis their own country they have also dispossessed Australians from acquiring properties to rent. Moreover, the 950,000 international students presently in Australia are the nub of why rents in Sydney and Melbourne are between 20 to 30 percent higher than they should be.
Meanwhile, the intrinsic reason why property prices are duly exorbitant here is because of excessive levels of immigration - either temps or permanents. Reputable economists estimate that, for every 100,000 permanent immigrants that arrive in Australia increase the value of a property by 2 percent.
Succinctly, governments in Australia and Canada (at the federal, and state/provincial levels), are ALL COMMITTED to large scale immigration programs as the intrinsic means (a Ponzi Scheme) to propel economic growth. This train-of-thinking to all of the rabid economic rationalists is that mass-immigration engenders relentless consumption - therefore, increasing wealth. Alas, the great negatives with immigration into Western nations, over the past 25 years (Jack raises this at the 11 minute and 20 second point), exist with the sociological detriments these from diverse cultures and religions spawn.
Quite simply, the influx of these groups has been so immense that they are no longer just significant parts of communities in Canada and Australia and, moreover, Britain, that they’ve totally usurped the predecessors. Their numbers are now so immense in an array of areas that they are the re-colonists.

You can still build houses. I built a house they sold for 700k in Rigaud Quebec (not exactly expensive area) with my ex girlfriends uncle for like 120k (most of which was loaned he didn't even work) with just us her brother, his two daughters who were like 2 and 7 at the time and some friends. It only took two years, with no actual construction workers or etc involved at all.

Canada is such a beautiful big country it’s a shame it’s poisoned by bad politics. It has so much potential to be a great nation
Trudeau hurt Canada as much as Trump hurt the United States...
Not bad politics, just lazy politicians who allowed a couple of really crazy things to happen: namely, the notwithstanding clause that lets politicians deny the rights of their citizens -- used by Quebec against immigrants and to some extent against anglophones. Ontario gov't of Ford has used it I believe. Whoever would allow such a clause to deny rights to citizens is lazy -- they weren't willing to put together the time and energy needed to have a constitution free of such an impediment.
It was necessary to get the required support for the changes to the British North America Act. -- the patriation of our constitution.
@@gameburn178Has the use of the Not withstanding clause to blame for a shortage of housing and high prices?
@@basilcarroll9729 Hard to say, probably not. I was talking about the larger limitations on the country's ability to solve problems. Housing and the larger problem of affordability is a very difficult problem that has in the past been solved by recessions/depressions -- not the kind of solutions we want today. Creativity and a willingness to look at what seems to be working in other places should help. Most Canadians are doing as well as we have ever have -- maybe better in fact. I remember the early to mid1980s being absolutely brutal: unemployment through the roof and inflation at the start was worse than today.
I live in the Netherlands, and we have a similar housing crisis. In the 90s, large foreign companies were buying houses as investments, and although there were many warning signals, the government didn't act. And now we have the highest rate of homelessness ever in our history.
This is one of the problems with Canadians. Living in Canada they are spoiled rotten, children who stomp their feet and cry just like a petulant child. When things get tough they cry foul about everyone but themselves. Canadians are the biggest complainers on earth and not one of them does anything to help. I wish they would all move and find out that Canada isn't as bad as the thought.

I am a farmer in Nova Scotia. Myself and my farm have been held up as a shining example of innovative success. Until five years ago we were just that. But this last month we have been very seriously considering the prospect of shutting down and selling after farming for four generations, 70 years! it 100% down to absolutely dismal governance on every level; municipal, provincial and federal. This would be bad enough if it was just our farm in trouble, but it is almost every farm that is not under supply management (and it's not that they haven't also been hit hard, there is just a system in place to match income to cost of production). Our input costs have soared and we have had to put prices up which has reduced sales (I can only guess that is because more food is being imported). We grow fresh vegetables and our labour cost has risen from about 45% of gross four years ago to 60%+ this year, minimum wage is up 39% since 2018!! I will be the first to say that my employees deserve a good wage, but there is no way we can recoup this cost! Next year they may all be unemployed. If we have a crisis in housing, we have an absolute disaster on the horizon in food supply. We could very well see starvation in Canada at this rate! My life has been turned into a living hell, I can say that for sure!
You realize Trudeau is a member of the WEF, he was one of Kissinger's flunkies at Harvard - l was warned about this however not given particulars back in 2007,8 - china is buying up American farms and meat processing plants. For this reason alone l am trying to put together monies for a farm or several - l am not a farmer but l think l can fund these farms (farms will be fully functional) with other means once l aquire them. I moved to TN 4 yrs ago - l am on top of a mountain 500acres, wooded no pasture in sight -so l have a lot to do.

This video sums up why living in Canada feels like a tightening vice right now. Living near Ottawa, I can't afford moving out of my cramped appartment while my landlord started harrassing me over a 15% increase of my rent. I feel more like an investement asset than a f***ng person right now.
makes me so mad. This is coming the the states next. This is obviously attack on democracy from the west. The west pays people here to betray our own people. George soros and his kids are the worlds real life supervillains, and obama too. Barrack started all of this. The middle eastern terrorist
15% is an illegal increase, Ontario's conservatives have instituted a very socialist price cap on rent increases for all but new developments. Move into an older building and then you can drain a landlord by being on the positive side of that equation. It's worth going into debt to move out if they're raising it 15%.
@@theredscourge there is nothing socialist about rent ceilings
@@game_boyd1644 Everything about a government-imposed price ceiling is socialist. There is NOTHING capitalist about it. A private business of any sort, being forced to have a cap imposed on the prices it charges for its services, is textbook socialism. And yes, I know the differences between Marxism, Leninism, communism, and socialism, so don't give me any of that crap. And of course when you put a price control on something, you tend to create shortages. At least they were sane enough to exempt new constructions so as to mitigate that very sort of shortage, but even the imposition of any price cap has a massive chilling effect on construction on its own, as it sets a precedent for future price caps which may have no such exemption.

As one of the immigrants who left in 2017, I saw some of this coming years ago. When you come from a developing country, you learn to tell when the economic winds are shifting and leave as soon as you can before you get caught in the storm. Going back to my home country has worked out very well for me. I wouldn't freak out too much though, I've seen countries go through a LOT worse and still manage to turn around eventually. Canada is a rich country, it will be fine. The problem is that it takes time for things to be fixed; for young people, that can turn out to be a chunk of time out of their most productive years they cannot afford to lose. I still love Canada, plan to return (even part time) one day. This too shall pass.
You're spot on. It will get better but I'm guessing that may take 20 years
Maybe less than 20 years, I'm not sure things are that far gone. Canadians are not used to political and economic turmoil so it may feel like the end of the world. Try going through all of that, intense political rivalry that sucks all the energy out of the country and the government being flat broke or drowning in debt. Then we can panic. 🙂We're not there yet.

As a person who lives in hamilton, the homeless crisis is severe. You can't go 2 blocks without seeing a tent city, and not 1 block without seeing someone on the verge of overdosing ( at least down the mountain ). There is nothing being done and even with vacant unused townhouse complexes there is just no help. People are becoming angry with the homeless thinking that its all addicts and lazy people, when in reality alot of my friends, and families with no drug use simply cant afford to live.
But we currently have 3 different condos being built worth close to a million each. That will deffinitley help.

Wow that's just sad. I hope your country can get through this. I can't imagine living like that. Damn.
The majority is addicts and the mentally ill. But the liberal government wants this. Their goal is to create a homeless state. There is no person with less power than a homeless person addicted to drugs.

I spent the last 16 years of my life living in the same city this video started on (Waterloo,ON), and now I am sitting down typing this comment in my native country of Colombia. I'll be forever grateful for the opportunities I had to learn english, get a good education and have a lifestyle that many fellow Colombians can't, but if you had asked me 5 years ago that I'd be moving to Colombia because I did not see any kind of future for me in Canada I would have laughed. I really felt this whole video on a personal level, and it is sad the state of things in Canada, I felt stuck, not really seeing a life where I could do more than just get by - and mind me I had a good paying job and great career growth opportunity - ultimately the real cost to live in Canada no longer justified itself. I really do feel like the first wave of a larger movement, where it is still seen as taboo or underground to move from Canada, people here in Colombia sometimes don't quite understand, but I'm confident we will see many more people leaving Canada for other countries whether it is their homeland or not. I don't know if Colombia is my final destination, nor will I shut the door on Canada forever, but right now a return to Canada seems distant.

The only major difference in Canada in the past few decades is mass immigration of greedy, selfish rich *(word that has 6 letters) and is a race. The problem here lies that the countries that immigrate to Canada, are not solving their internal problems and instead leaving them behind. All the while they bring them here, greed and rich selfish people are causing our country to become a shithole. Deport people while we still can regardless of what they want.

I didn't work so hard in school and sacrificed so many opportunities to socialize and party in my youth to get straight A's in order to have the life I do now. The entire world desperately needs a hard reset if the young adults of my generation are ever going to have a chance to have a fair shot in life like our parents did.
The moment your governor started. Centrised digital currency. 100% of Canadians became slaves of the bank/fascism. You bunch of idiots. Hahahaaaa
Sure but if you work in a kind of hostile low-paying job long enough you can afford to rent a bedroom with 3 other roommates in your 30s and 40s with 'stove rules' and have enough left over to pay for the mobile phone and data with the remaining 10% of your income. Hang in and you can afford your own room at the seniors housing (the one where they put mentally ill and rehab people too) and at 70 get FREE government suicide machine death. Huzzah Canada!
It took me three years to find a job, the only one I can get is dishwashing.
I used to have a goal in life. Now I can't even go to school for said goal, because it's so fucking expensive.
you let too many tresspassers in. come to mesa arizona many homes being built. but if you are a straight a student who works with his hands, go get a A&P liecense airframe -powerplant and work on airplanes. leave the grunt work to the trespassers

I am Canadian. My family came here 200 years ago. I live in the same cow town I was born in. Went away for education and came right back. I grew up in a political family. My Dad ran for MPP. There was no problem disagreeing with him, just explain why. Despite this, I stopped voting in 1989 because I saw no connection between what a politician said and then did. Start voting again in 2015, after proper pronouns/compelled speech. We ain't voting our way out of this one fellow Canucks. Canada is finished, waiting it's managers/owners to come out of the shadows. Canada was destroyed by Canadians for interests outside Canada...there's no happy ending here kids.

Grew up in Canada, moved to the US in 2000. Loved it (as a young adult), the fact that it was similar in culture, but cheaper. Moved back to Canada a few years later and felt that Canada had changed a bit, but nothing too bad. Moved to the US again in 2012, got a green card (on track for US citizenship), and have a family now... Moving down when I did was one of the best decisions I've ever made. Canada is almost unrecognizable today (late 2023) vs the place I grew up in. I would dread for my kids to grow up there (as it is). :( #IAMCanadian

The second point being an important consideration in NZ now with the General Election in a few weeks.
Investors buying large % of property is a symptom of high prices, not the cause. Investors, foreign or domestic, wouldn’t want to buy housing in the first place if prices weren’t bid up by too many people trying to live in too few homes.

Can confirm about the insane rent hikes. In 2016 I was renting a 1 bedroom at 77 Parkwoods Village Dr in Toronto. The rent for 1 bedroom was $1100 in 2016. I just checked the website and omg it's $2445 for that same unit

I'm from Brazil and I'm 32 years old, down here, we all grew up having the word "Canada" as a synonym for a role model to be followed by a country seeking success (together to Scandinavian countries + Switzerland, it's common here to hear people saying stuff like "this city is a Norway in Brazil" - like, when the city has a high standard, "do you think that voting for this guy will make our country a Switzerland in such a short period of time?", "hey, watch out for your stuff, here's not Canada")...my country's been always a mess in every sense, but seeing the otherwise "1st world countries" following suit is too crazy for my brain to process

All of this is because Canadians are WAY TOO PASSIVE. A passive population is one ripe for exploitation, and repression. We brought this on ourselves with our silence. And we are agreeing to it, thus we deserve every single thing that has happened and will happen to us should we continue to stay silent and complacent.
Canadians are also very gullible and easily programmed. From cradle to grave you are brainwashed into hating your very generous neighbor and thinking they are less than you, because they are scared you will leave and take your tax revenue with you. It works like a charm for Canadian serfs too. You may be "morally superior", but we have far superior mind control programming here and most of us have broken the conditioning. Your amateur hour mind control has Canadians uniformly nodding and laughing while they sip their champagne-like beer while the savages down south drink swill.

@@Zeetana1 Because it is.
Great summary. Like others have said, the country is a total mess. I came here in 1976 with my parents. My dad made $25/hr in the 80's when a decent house in Niagara was $125-$150k. Through hard work my parents were able to attain their dream. Unfortunatley, in 1988, free trade came into being and all the middle class manufacturing jobs dried up. 2 of the 3 GM plants closed. That was the beginning of the erosion of the middle class here. Im 52 now, i finally got into a stable job paying $30/hr five years ago but its too late for me. By the time there was enough money for a down payment, covid happened and the price of houses here doubled. The dream of owning a home here is shattered. You can barely buy a war time shack for $600k here now. And honestly, why be mortgage poor just to own a home? What kind of a life is that. Its great for those that already own but impossible for anyone else. The line has been drawn. You made it or you didnt. The ladder has been broken. Im dusgusted with the lack of leadership and greed with our political and private business elites. This is not the country I grew up in anymore.

In Canada, individuals living in cars due to partial homelessness result from a complex interplay of factors. High housing costs relative to income, stagnant wages, and income inequality drive this issue. Job loss, weak social support, medical expenses, evictions, and lack of affordable housing also contribute, while systemic problems and inadequate policies further perpetuate the phenomenon.
Considering the present situation, diversifying by shifting investments from real estate to financial markets or gold is recommended, despite potential future home price drops. Given prevailing mortgage rates and economic uncertainty, this move is prudent, particularly due to stricter mortgage regulations. Seeking advice from a knowledgeable independent financial advisor is advisable for those seeking guidance.
I've remained in touch with a financial analyst since the start of my business. Amid today's dynamic market, the key difficulty is pinpointing the right time to buy or sell when dealing with trending stocks - a seemingly simple task but challenging in reality. My portfolio has grown by more than $600k within just a year, and I've entrusted my advisor with the task of determining entry and exit points.
@@ThomasChai05 I've been thinking about going that route. I have a lot of stocks that I have maintained, but they are beginning to lose value, so I'm not sure if I should hold onto them or sell them. I feel hiring your investment coach would make it easier to restructure my portfolio.
I'm guided by *Camille Alicia Garcia* An experienced coach with extensive financial market knowledge. While you can consider other options, her strategy has yielded positive results for me. She offers valuable insights, including entry and exit points for the securities I concentrate on.
Thank you for the information. I conducted my own research and your advisor appears to be highly skilled and knowledgeable. I've sent her an email and arranged a phone call. Her expertise is impressive, and I'm eagerly anticipating our conversation.
As an American living in the Seattle area, I went on a tour bus through Vancouver, BC as part of a celebration for finishing a large project at work. I remember the guide pointing out typical urban houses (like in Seattle) that were selling for $500,000 CAD. It was 1996. The nightmare had already begun.
that was because the government encouraged people from hong kong to come and bring their money when hong kong reverted back to the chinese.

Well, between the Fires and Trudeau as the WEF Water Boy I'm surprised they are still hanging in there.
You'd like this comment I made above..
Don't vote for Klaus's boy - Prime Minster Woke next time. Seriously have you seen that picture of Trudeau with old Klaus at the WEF. The old guy and the directionless young "boy" who found a father figure that would finally give him some self-respect as a "male". Certainly, Trudeau was directionless in his earlier life having funked out of engineering school, dropped out of grad school, and being forced to resign from his teaching post. It's a classic setup - it's as old as youth gangs, religion and the miliary - give a directionless male self-respect and they'll do anything for you, (even mess up a country) because my "all knowing father" says it's the right thing to do and it's how I gain virtue as a male in his eyes. The way Trudeau acts - his lack of direction as a young man, his feminist orientation, his propensity for costuming, his over emotionalization in public and appealing to the feeling mind rather than the analytical mind, his choice of English rather than a STEM major, even his hair and youthful face suggest he's a bit short on a masculine persona that old Klaus could fix... Too bad Canada.
I feel for all my Canadian neighbors. Not that the US is doing well right now, but Canadians are suffering more. The US has “a Trudeau” as well, his name is Gary Newsom. He managed to destroy California in no time. There’s a mass exodus away from California due to his dystopian way of ruling the state. Instead of trying to fix the problem, this dumbnut is attempting to solve the exodus by trying to implement a 10 year exit tax, whereby those leaving the state will have to continue pay taxes to CA for 10 years, while simultaneously paying taxes in the state they moved to. In a way forcing CA residents to stay in CA due to the financial burden would be impossible to manage. What used to be one of the most attractive states in the US, is now a dystopian nightmare that just is getting gradually worse. North America is need of cleansing. Vote for candidates that can achieve this. If you continue to vote for these guys, we’ll then you know what to expect. Klaus is as close the Bond villain Blofeld as can get, evil personified.
I've lived in Canada my entire life and I've always been very proud to be Canadian. I've never traveled outside of the country, I take all of my vacations in Canada. And I am at a point where I want to move to America

The only major difference in Canada in the past few decades is mass immigration of greedy, selfish rich *(word that has 6 letters) and is a race. The problem here lies that the countries that immigrate to Canada, are not solving their internal problems and instead leaving them behind. All the while they bring them here, greed and rich selfish people are causing our country to become a shithole. Deport people while we still can regardless of what they want. Norway did this, and now it's Norway again.

The U.S. is quickly following Canada's lead in this pattern. The main culprit is the private investment trend. Groups are investing with regular returns that are payable monthly. No one, however, is noticing the ethics behind their investments. These massive surges in investments are not building homes for sale. They are empowering conglomerates to cash purchase real estate and to build at epidemic levels for over inflated rent. This lucky gold pot is rapidly costing us all precious housing. We are headed in the very same direction. 😔
Glad to see someone is sharp enough to see the root cause of the so called housing shortage.
I respectfully disagree Danielle. The U.S. is in far better shape in just about every category compared to Canada. Canada is in the worst shape out of the Western countries BY FAR. Once the global recession/depression is over, Australia will come back strong. The UK will be about the same as they are today. The U.S. will be more powerful. Canada will have a dismal future. The U.S. was propping Canada up for over 60 years and that's over now for the most part. Orange Donald dropped Canada for a new trade relationship with Mexico (which will be much more successful) and Canada lost all their goodies and freebies. Biden refused to change it, but you won't hear that in the media. It's over for Canada. EDIT: Biden held strong on ALL of Trump's new trade deals. He refused to change any of it with any country. Look into it it's true.
Investors wouldn’t want housing in the first place if the prices didn’t keep getting bid up by cramming more and more people into too few homes. In other words, investment % in housing is a symptom of high prices, not the cause of it.

Nearly every negative nuance that Jack expresses is a parallel scenario here in the major 6 cities of Australia and, increasingly so in regional areas. The irreparable crux of these issues in both Canada and Australia are exceptionally high migrant intakes. But due to only having a peripheral knowledge of just how excessive Canada’s migrant intakes are I will concentrate on Australia’s.
Since the country’s borders were reopened on Nov 3, 2021, there has been a net-increase of the population that’s approximately 750,000 featherless bipeds. Of that number, a STAGGERING 350,000 - about 47% of the total - are people who have gained admission into the country on student related visas. Of course, large intakes of foreign students (classified as being temporary immigrants) are something that Canadians are au fait with, too.
Here in Oz, since Jan 2014, so huge has the intake of foreign students been that they are now the ‘COLLECTIVE’ majorities, of 11 of the county’s top 14 universities. But apart from them dispossessing Australians from places in unis their own country they have also dispossessed Australians from acquiring properties to rent. Moreover, the 950,000 international students presently in Australia are the nub of why rents in Sydney and Melbourne are between 20 to 30 percent higher than they should be.
Meanwhile, the intrinsic reason why property prices are duly exorbitant here is because of excessive levels of immigration - either temps or permanents. Reputable economists estimate that, for every 100,000 permanent immigrants that arrive in Australia increase the value of a property by 2 percent.
Succinctly, governments in Australia and Canada (at the federal, and state/provincial levels), are ALL COMMITTED to large scale immigration programs as the intrinsic means (a Ponzi Scheme) to propel economic growth. This train-of-thinking to all of the rabid economic rationalists is that mass-immigration engenders relentless consumption - therefore, increasing wealth. Alas, the great negatives with immigration into Western nations, over the past 25 years (Jack raises this at the 11 minute and 20 second point), exist with the sociological detriments these from diverse cultures and religions spawn.
Quite simply, the influx of these groups has been so immense that they are no longer just significant parts of communities in Canada and Australia and, moreover, Britain, that they’ve totally usurped the predecessors. Their numbers are now so immense in an array of areas that they are the re-colonists.
@@markferguson7563 Yes, I agree with your comments. The funny (sad, not haha) thing is that with the world population on the cusp of dropping precipitously I can see other countries start to put an end to emigration by means of incentives to stay, which will put an end to the "gravy train" that the countries with high immigration have come to rely on.
We need to start finding other ways of keeping our economies strong without importing people, because that importation is going to no longer be an option in the near future, as far as human history goes anyways.
@@Shridra What you say has validity with some countries, but absolutely not with what the majority. Of the majority is the entire continent of Africa. And where ever you travel to in any big city in Europe the African diasporas are always sociological and economic disasters, which cannot be said about other groups.
But whether they are poor or successful, they all fracture the social structures of the host societies that attracted them to migrate in the first place. This is entirely due to them wanting to maintain and perpetuate their cultural and religious traditions. All of which is a recipe for disaster.
To prove that occurred last week with the violent clashes between Hindus and Sikhs in Toronto and Vancouver over the murder of the latter's clique.
@@markferguson7563 ah, yes, you may well be accurate in that. Where I live specifically the majority of the incoming non "native" population is from the middle east, which I'm aware is beginning to have similar population issues as other developed countries, and the countries I was thinking of. But you are correct, Africa, and specifically sub Saharan Africa is, at present, not suffering from decreased fertility. I know there are still countries where the average fertility rate is 5-6 children per woman.

My old Indian landlord was a British expat. Your racism didn't work
My grandfather came from Ireland in the early 1900's. I'm going to apply for an Irish passport. Will make it easier to move from Canada
My Irish ancestors came over in 1795. Best move ever. Canada forever.
They are doing the same in Australia. I am so sad my country is being destroyed by greed. Feel sorry for you guys too
I live in Waterloo and I'm a small home builder so this hits home. Big bureaucratic governments at all three levels, are solely to blame for the housing mess we are in now. Noise study, archeological study, geotechnical assessment, shadow studies, site plan approval, parkland dedication fees, river conservation authorities, schoolboard fees, development charges and the list goes on and on and on of of things that have next to nothing to do with building homes getting in the way. We need to make it WAY easier to build homes. All of this bloat, must go!
The archaeological survey is actually pretty crucial because if you do build a home where a potential site is, you could destroy evidence forever while building the foundations - or bury it under someone’s home. I know it seems unimportant but almost everywhere else around the world does it, it’s hard to care about a past our families may not have been apart of, but it’s important to try to understand why finding indigenous settlements or tools of the past could be impactful
@MCernoble Thank you for providing an example of an opinion that works to keep housing costs high and new homes that much harder to build. Arch studies are completely nonsensical in almost all cases. If it's a virgin piece of land next to a river or lake then okay, but it's absurd to be putting that requirement on infill developments and fields that have been farmed for generations which municipalities love doing.
Well the public employees like to get homes to buy, and the taxpayers fund those public sector employees. The money flows, the low wage citizens are out of the market.
Rewarded with the house, picked for the upstanding middleclass, the way all imported European legacy works. Change will not happen.
@@albertplumer A good portion of public employees need to go. Preferably into the construction sector.
@@MCernoblewho cares?
Hit the nail on the head showing how bad it is getting in Canada for sure.
And you didn’t even cover how our healthcare system is also slowly collapsing due to shortage of workers and supplies, long waiting lists, overworked staff
Healthcare is collapsing because we are tired of being Overworked, Underappreciated, Understaffed, Blamed for everything, Abused and reprimanded for being abused.
I've been a PSW since 2018 i know people who have been there longer, I know nurses who say it is the same thing where they work. IF you take pride in your client and do your job? Management punishes you. Don't you dare use Progress Notes, Don't you dare make sure the client is taken care of quickly, Don't you dare assure / re-assure them, Don't you dare give them more food (Retirement home), Don't you dare give them more liquid (Retirement home / Coworkers not wanting to toilet client)
Healthcare can be fixed very easily by having a Government official step in and say "No, This is how it's being run" No more managers that hide and only come in to stir up shit with the floor staff, No more Lazy Employees on their 50th smokebreak expecting non smokers to pickup slack, No more Unions that don't do their jobs / take bribes and drop cases for it.
Do your job or GO HOME / NO JOB.
And the elephant in the room -- mass immigration.
provincial issues
Didn't help to fire people for not wanting the experimental gene therapy jab.
When you import millions of people into this country, most of them low skill labour and uneducated refugees from middle east and africa, who fleece the system, including healthcare, this is the natural result.
I see a lot of people coming here for work, and deciding about a year later to go somewhere else. A friend of mine from Iran basically said that her husband was pushing for them to move back to somewhere around the Arabian Gulf. He had only just been in Canada for around a year before he thought the whole thing was a giant tax scam. She had waited 2 years for him to be able to move to be with her and their kids. Both she and her husband hold PhDs, her in molecular biology and him in management and finance. Honestly, I see his point. I also live in Calgary where things are bad, but they aren't nearly as bad as out East.
It is possible for the economy to recover, but the massive government overreach? That's a way bigger problem. Trudeau is an idiot despot and the coalition he has formed has barreled through many regulations and ideas that make absolutely no sense. At one time it was a coin toss for me whether I'd vote for the Liberals or Conservatives, and I had to look at the issues to figure out who was a better option. Now, I don't trust any of them. I worry Pierre Poilievre just gives a lot of good sound bites. The NDP are a bunch of pinko-commies and the People's Party is lost in some libertarian fantasy land. The Green Party are what they've always been, laughable.
If the Marijuana Party wants to make a comeback, maybe they can manage this better. Perhaps a government that's as baked as a Bob Marley tribute concert will be too chilled out to exercise all of these unreasonable government powers they've accrued.
Face it -- you're a disgruntled right winger. You are pissed off because your party keeps losing elections (federally). Now you''re disgruntled about your favourite party too. You will vote for Poilievre, that's obvious. Maybe he will even win the election!
Your "lack of trust" is just bellyaching, the whining of a right wing snowflake. Gee, it's terrible in Canada! We have a "despot" ruling over us who doesn't even try to stop you from calling him names. Most despots do NOT allow that.
The NDP regularly attracts millions of votes from Canadians -- just look at what happened yesterday in Manitoba. If the NDP is pinko-commie,so are millions of Canadians who vote for it.
Can you stop the whining for just a little while and suggest something positive for a change? Or is that too much to ask?
I believe Poilievre is more than a sound bite .At worst by far the least ugly contestant, at best a turbo charge for the economy .I am not inexperienced when it comes to Politics. Despair only gets in the way of rational thought .Listen to long version discussions with Jordan Peterson etc. Perhaps forget the sound bites Best Ji S.
I believe Trudeau has to go as well. However, your Premier is a friggin' joke.
Trouble is: there aren't that many jobs that need that type of immigrant. Every time they get one of those jobs (generally via a diversity program) a classic Canadian with likely better education gets booted. Goofy good natured Boards of Governors trash the types born here without a thought.
I work in a union, I have for 15 years. I make "good money" but still live paycheck-to-paycheck. I live in an apartment.
I got laid off last week because my industry (highrise construction) is terribly slow right now due to interest rates and investors pulling out.
I've been out of work for 1 week now and my rent is due in 3 days. From missing 1 week of work my account is already in the rears and I can't pay my rent.
It isn’t just the present government we have to worry about, it’s the big investors who are bleeding the people like the parasites they are. A revolution is in order and not just in Canada. Corporate greed has got us here and our governments have allowed it. They can’t be trusted to work for the interests of the people. Stay strong and healthy fellow Canadians. We need to change our thinking. Band together to support each other financially . Families need to learn to live together in one house if need be. We have always been proudly independent but the current system is making it impossible to do so.
Sad and horrifying for Canadians. Trudeau has been a disaster for Canadians. Not much better in the UK to be honest.
Yes just as bad here in UK and Europe is falling apart. It's all part of the WEF plan.
Harper definitely didn't so us any favours, and Trudeau just isn't working hard enough to fix the mistakes of the past. You think Pierre, another career politician who has never had a real job in his life, will make things better?
Anyone can do a better job over the clown we currently have.@@rbesfe
Sometimes I think that the Maritime Provinces would be better off to be an English Colony. Before confederation there was a referendum to become part of Canada. The vote was 99% NO but yet here we are
Ya'll took the bait, and went hard left with the facilitation of toxic university teachings. Every woke graduate with a degree contributed to building the prison you're currently in..
I'm from The Netherlands. We're doing our utmost to keep up with you guys!
Seriously... the entire Western World is going downhill FAST. And yes, it does look/feel like a cultural/moral/economic collapse.
Interesting times.
Europe in general is fucked now, thanks to the rapid demographic changes we're being forced into enduring
Its mostly self-inflicted. A lot of people just don't the reality of what has caused this but there has been a major cultural shift in the last 2 generations. The western world has moved farther and farther left and turning away from religion more and more. They have been electing (or not protesting power grabs) more progressive and more leftist politicians to the point of insanity. This is what they do; the marxists and communists which is who these progressives really are like Trudeau. They destroy countries and have no tolerance for dissent they could care less about the people; you can clearly see by the liberal government in canada's decisions. They are making the country unaffordable, giving themselves unprecedented control and less safe for Canadians and don't care to change anything. Also you dare to have a mask mandate protest in ottawa? Trudeau calls you fascists, refuses to even address their concerns and promptly shuts it down using police and seizing bank accounts. A lot of the left wing politicians have ideas so radical these days they are unrecognizable in their policy from just 15 years ago. Thats the problem.
Get them out and elect more center or right wing governments and a lot of this will be reversed. The economy will recover because business and capitalism will become a priority again, countries will become more protective and not want to get involved in as many wars, mass immigration will be back under control, and crazy woke ideas like forcing parents of transgender kids to get them permanent 'gender change' surgeries, allowing biological men to compete with women in sports, openly discriminating against white people because 'oppression' will slowly die out. And no, if you elect a right wing majority nobody's rights will be taken away. Just look at the US: the 'big bad' trump got in and his administration did nothing to discriminate against minorities or LGBT americans. They lost zero rights and nothing changed, thats an irrational fear the true left wing scumbags told people that would happen if you elect a 'fascist'.
Russia is fighting a holy war against these satanic scums.
But we always have hollywood.....and. gaga....and beance...or whatever. They all eat very well. Media people report I g. Making millions per year.....so.its all.ok....is it?
The similar things goes down in Lithuania especially with ecology and trying to destroy agroculture. Thought our government was expecting Russia to attack us so that they could flee to their summer homes without any backlash and they were trying really hard to provoke Russia to attack.
I'm a Canadian that's been working in the US for the past 8 years, so I've been a bit ignorant of what was happening. Doing some catch up now and I'm absolutely shocked by what Trudeau's government has done. I'll come back in 2025 just to vote Pierre in and pray he's able to accomplish even half of what he say he'll do.
Its incredible to me so many people see the problems now, have relative solutions, yet none of them are being employed. Canadian politics have been completely captured by private interests.
A bigger government is a more corrupt and tyrannical government, inevitably working for/with those quasi-private interests.

“The nine most terrifying words; ‘I’m from the government and I’m here to help.’ ”
~ Ronald Regan
The corporations and private industry will NOT do any better.
Reagan's "trickle down" mainly helped the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. The corporations have NO OBLIGATION to "pass the profits" down to the commoners. Just look at Kansas during Sam Brownback's time in office.
You mean like the firemen, police, doctors, nurses, teachers, the armed services etc., they all provide government funded services. Reagan was an asshole who sold his soul to the US elites, such one liners were leant at General Electric when he was their marketing spokesman. The US is going down because of neoliberal jerks like him. One of the biggest reasons that house prices and rents are so high is that the government stopped building them itself (while allowing mass immigration) as Singapore does to keep prices in check.
And reaganomics was the beginning of the fall of the US economy, for the working class.
Architect here - the series of hoops we need to jump through with different levels of the government to get new construction approved is insane. By the time we get there, 1-3 years later, the client has exhausted their budget and is too scared to break ground. The fees for everything are insane and you're met with a lotttt of pushback. Hiring an architect used to be something that any middle class Canadian could do for a new build or renovation, now the only clients coming my way are commercial developers and the ultra wealthy.
most regs are provincial and municipal though, nothing to do with the federal government.
Rules are there so builders don't build like China do. Simple as that. Regulations are to protect the public and let me tell you, it is absolutely necessary. Even with the best regulations, we still find crap building in everywhere in Canada. I bought a condo and let me tell you how bad that shit was; The kitchen storage area was not in the right wood we wanted, so as the color of the floor (they didn't match at all), there was no isolation in the north facing wall, but the pipes ran in that wall making it just a question of time before they burst from being frozen, the roof was faulty so the water was able to come in when there was wind, the climatisation unit was install on the wall but the pipes which was suppose to run through the appartment were not connected, and just push up in the wall... And it was already infested with mices...
And you know what that fucking APCHQ ass of sociation told me when i wanted to sue the builder? ''We are sorry you have such trouble with your lot but we cannot sue them, we can only give you advices...'' My reply was ''So you basically protect the bullshiters...'' and i hang up.
My and my Mom lost 80,000$ in that 'adventure' and we were very lucky to find a buyer that was able to take the lot, with all the problems it has, as he was able to do the renovations himself.
Because of low mud life rotten building contractors around to scam people, you get to ' jump through hoops' before approval and that is again a good thing. I hope i enlighten you about why regulations exist and garanties are asked before hand. Not saying it help the market, espacially now, but the public must be protected at least a minimum...and it is the bare minimum right now...
@@jessikapiche6097 Wild because most of the houses from the 70's I've worked on were built better than these shitty lego houses that new development produces. These new houses use "stick building" methods meaning that have absolutely no ability to take stresses beyond the intended tolerance. They also don't really look like homes and feel more like old age "homes".
@@ramsaybolton9151 before the 70's the houses were constructed badly but, they were solid indeed. What they lack in conformity, they had in honesty. No one would have left a half work done in those times. All in All, rules are there so the constructions should be done better, i am not saying they are or are gonna be, but it is still better (espacially with the scammers that are all around) than leaving the field all open for mediocracy. Now what we need is more power to sue the ones responsible for their mess and lack of integrity.
Pierre Poilievre talks about all that red tape bureaucracy. He made a detailed video about it if you haven’t watched it yet.
Hopefully he gets elected next year.
I feel blessed. I have had to cut back immensely. Cell phone with no data, heat off unless it's -20C, and I buy groceries based on sale prices vs what I actually need.
My saving grace is that my brother rents me his nice sized condo for $1000 a month plus utilities, so $1200 in reality.
1100 sqf on the main, 2 bedrooms, 2 1/2 bathrooms with a good sized single garage.
If I had to rent in the real world, I'd be broke.
The thought of people not eating because they have to pay rent breaks my 60 year old heart.
This is not the Canada I grew up in.
Can confirm I wanna leave this country because of how bad it currently is even though I lived in Canada my entire life
Leave! go out and see the world. You will realize a lot. Everything in this video pretty 17:54 much applies to the entire developed world right now. Canada govt may not be perfect but by no standard is this anywhere near the evil that exists in the world.
@@knzzzz318
You're right, other countries are also having problems. But I think by comparison Canada is going downhill far more quickly. Just compare the increase of housing prices from now to five years ago.
My biggest mistake was NOT leaving Canada when I retired 12 years ago or maybe it was coming back to Canada after spending many years abroad.
If you can afford to move out of the country, then you don't need to move out of the country.
You're stuck here until you die, pal.
@@agentmikster44 Is that the only thing that matters?
I've always wanted to move to Canada but it seems like thats not happening in my lifetime :)
Also, I live in Australia and things arent much better here. Its not just the collapse of Canada but the collapse of the entire system that the world has built on over decades or maybe even centuries
Stay strong out there everyone
It's always cute that Australians always want to move to Canada, and Canadians always want to move to OZ and learn to play Aussie football. :)
Don’t do it. Your education and work experience outside of Canada will be negated. You will start from scratch and have to get a survival job. Canadian Experience is a way to get safe immigrants to pay immigration fees ( 10,000+) and there are no jobs or exams to prove competence. 40% of immigrants leave in 4 years because of lack of jobs. These are professionals. The rest usually stay because they want a better life for their kids.
There’s no reason for an Australian to visit much less immigrate to Canada; there’s nothing here and the climate is grossly inferior. The only advantage of Canada is proximity to the US, making it easy to vacation there if you have money; much better is actually immigrating to and living in the US.
Dude... Back when McDonalds paid $11/hour here, Aussies earned like $20-25/hr for the exact same job. I don't know what they get now but australia is way more livable if you are able to survive all of the world's most dangerous venomous creatures trying to kill you every minute
Stay where you are at least Australia has good weather
I feel so sorry for this new generation of young people. They got to pay double in rent than what we're paying for the same old apartment. So sad!!!.
But we have beance...tatlor swift...and rappers...media people making millions. Dana bash....etc...what not do we need? We are soo lucky....and can buy a normal house for 2 million....
Dont feel bad. Theyre voting for more govt to fix the problem at every step of the way.
Why? They're the ones voting for all the 'diversity' and 'equity'. Let them learn from their mistakes. Hopefully it won't be too late for them.
Honestly same here in Germany. Rent in my city has doubled in some places. Housing crisis are real in many countries.
In my eyes it's the economic system we chose. Housing has always been a playground for investors not a basic human right.
As long as people make profit with housing, housing won't be affordable. The market will fix nothing. It's time for regulations.
@@stephenthomas1492 Two different things. Diversity doesn't mean housing crisis and doesn't have anything to do with it.
Equity or equality ACTUALLY includes that housing is a basic right and has to be affordable.
