- Canada has been a magnet for immigrants for decades, but recently the number of permanent residents applying for citizenship has been dropping.
Thousands emigrate from India to Canada every year, with the Punjab community making up one of the country’s biggest diasporas, but some are now choosing to return to their home country.

I plan on leaving Canada next year so I can survive on my pension. 20 year military vet that has no choice but to take my pension and go elsewhere. Canada is literally becoming unlivable. Adding millions of people per year and no housing is destroying the entire nation.
Don’t forget the insane inflation sir
What if Canada stops pensions to non-resident Canadians ? Just asking.
Hmm they must be comparing notes with the Irish government.
Flooding the country with a human tidal wave while hot having sufficient housing.
you realized you can only receive the pension if you moved to a country that has a social security agreemnt with Canada and not to some 3rd world island right?
@@Traderking1990 Or build more housing, crazy.
I met a immigrant worker the other day. Educated, well spoken, but she was working security. She told me at one point 'I came here to get ahead, now I struggle to live a basic life.'. People used to come here to opportunity. Now they come to struggle less than they did in their own country.
or more than in the home country
I immigrated from Iraq in the 90s (after the Kuwait war), my 1st job in Canada I made 9$/hr, enough for rent, groceries, car insurance...etc. few years later I started making 13$/hr, I bought my 1st house & never missed a mortgage payment.... how do new comers today start their lives, let alone buy their 1st house is mindboggling to me!!
@@3abbosi They don't. They live in basements with 7 other people. Get 8-9 year car loans, line up at food banks, etc. The last chance for Canadians is moving to less desirable places like Calgary, Edmonton, Saskatoon, etc. But in 10 years, any Canadian that doesn't have family to help them out will essentially be slaves to the system. Even in those less desirable places houses will be millions of dollars.
Then the question is, what happens to people's retirement? If Canadian born children can barely afford to live and immigrants don't see the point of coming, who will pay my pension? There's going to be nothing left.
Those house prices will come down then.
@@joelc9439 The market (any market not only real estate) is about demand & supply, the problem is not only that the population is rapidly increasing due to migration (legal or not), also foreign investors... a coworker of mine rented a house in my city block, he says the owner of the house lives in China, only collects rent which is more than enough to make a good living in China!
It is a government inspired crisis this time. The Treasury have to sell Bonds to cover the trade imbalance and the government spending imbalance. In order to sell them they have to raise interest rates and the old long-term, low risk, low interest, AAA investments (including Treasury Bonds), held by the banks (often due to government regulatory policy), become next to worthless. The next milestone is the 15th when the government issue a new batch of Bonds. I have approximately 350k stagnant in my portfolio that needs growth. What is the best way to take advantage of this downturn?
This seems like the worst period.Even the markets are very unpredictable.started investing recently when the market prices were a bit high,today i am more than 60% down
Given the prevailing market conditions and the potential risks associated with the current economy, I would recommend refraining from investing in stocks for now. Instead, it would be prudent to consider retaining a portion of your assets in gold. Alternatively, seeking advice from a financial advisor could provide valuable guidance in this matter.
who is your financial coach, do you mind hooking me up?
was guided tho..Julia Hope Marble. walked me through the ropes majestically i'ts my ultimate pleasure.
She appears to be well-educated and well-read. I ran a Google search on her name and came across her website; thank you for sharing.
No surprise.Canadian universities and colleges have, for years, unethically binged on a huge volume of foreign students who pay exorbitant foreign student fees in the hopes of gaining fast tracked immigration. They did this under the blind guise of pro diversity, pro immigration, politics. Canadians who suggested there was a problem were branded as intolerant and silenced. Meanwhile foreign students were being exploited as low cost minimum wage labour by business, packed into overpriced rental housing by exploitative landlords, and milked for huge tuition fees by educational institutions who engaged in unethical recruiting practices.
Not just exorbitant "foriegn" rate on tuitions but add to that the visa renewal fees and paying immigrant consultants hefty fee so they can stay here and make whatever they spent. I know many people who just want to earn back what they spent here and leave for greener pasteurs.
That's what happens when government cuts funding to universities. They need to find alternate sources of income. Many provinces like Ontario have also not allowed tuition increases for students from their own provinces for a few years now. Universities face rising costs like any other organization. They didn't have much choice but to look foreign students to help make up the gap.
Conestoga College is a leading bad actor.
You summarized everything perfectly. 👏🏼👏🏼
@@amswitzer Government funding is what allowed academia to get so corrupt and bloated in the first place. We don't need more money for schools, we need less "academics"
The drop is mostly from Students,
biggest problem is housing, its VERY expensive in places like Toronto and Vancouver.
Canada simply hasn't build enough properties, despite years of encouraging migrants to come and live here.
Work on your run-on sentences, please.
@@radomu1 work on your personality, you make people uncomfortable..
It says from permanent residents not 2 year visa holders!
It’s too cold and conditions aren’t ideal for living organisms to thrive in Canada compared to say, like California
@@ButterflyG673 I'm aware what it says, the largest group of PR holders in Canada are from students who went through the system. The largest influx of migrants in general typically enter on student visas from India or China.. (mostly)
The single biggest reason housing costs have gone up is additional demand, (population increase) and rate increases getting passed onto tenants.
its not complicated..
I was born here, and I am actively trying to run away.
Same, mid 30s and it's become unbearable...socially I find people to be incredibly mean and miserable. Even in the summertime it's just not the same as it was (circa 2010-2015).

@@orangefuzzz ok 😊
Try going to India. You will realise how privileged you are
In 2010 Canada had less people..
I keep reading comments from Canadians saying, “I’m moving to America because Canada 🇨🇦 is too expensive.” You all are in for a surprise! It’s expensive in America as well - and we have a gun violence problem on top of it. Plus, the outrageous cost of healthcare.
After visiting india last december I'm seriously thinking of moving back. The differences that lured you to move to the west is getting slimmer and slimmer every day. You see India changing , roads infrastructure, internet . If you can get a good enough job back in India is it worth moving abroad?
The work life balance you gain by working in the west is actually a trap. You have to do a lot of chores by yourselves whereas in India you can hire someone easily to do it for you.
The biggest problem with Canadistan, is that the entire country outside of British Columbia and Parts of Ontario, comprises of pick up trucks, individuals who on average have no higher than a grade 10 education who generally dont take kindly, tim hortons, individuals who are nice yet have not seen anything outside of the crap town they live in and a 600 all inclusive to cuba or mexico, they have not even ever visited any canadian major city in their entire lives, with buildings and infrastructure that is far inferior to any third world countries major cities, it is pitiful and disgraceful and this side of Canada, which is the majority of the Country btw, is DECEPTIVLEY NEVER marketed or shown to the world, its all about Vancouver and Toronto, which has ALLL been built with money from overseas! Weird country for sure....Known so many ppl who moved to other provinces from developing nations, and all has said they came in and saw these cities and were like....(!!!!!!what the crap is this, this is a major down grade from where i am from and what i am used to, wtf!) ALL want to in turn move to Vancouver or Toronto.. Hence why you can buy 45 houses in most other provinces for the price of a condo in Vancovuer or Toronoto...SImply becasue the rest of canada is for a lack of a nicer word...a pure shite hole, with very low grade human beings who have not worked on themselves at all and are too afraid to even visit their own major cities, yes compared to most developing countries and third world countries included.....Sorry to break the truth to ya snowflakes out there....IF u do not believe me and have a quarter saved, get on a plane like i have and travel and go see what i am sayin....U will feel like u have been living a pure lie your whole life...No other part of Canada outside of BC or Ontario is even remotely worth living in if you have any other options and can make a decent living in pretty well most countries in the planet..PPL are there by force, either economic reasons or otherwise and or in the process or hopes of moving to BC or Ontario One day...Everyone in Canada knows that fact and pretends it isn't so...Also outside of BC. the Cold is 100 percent hellish and completely lowers your standard of living for 8 months out of the year, you cant go for walks, you cant sit outside ur patio, u cant use ur outdoor pool, u cant use your back yard, it literally physically hurts to walk out ur car to go to the grocery store and back....Canada is also an extremely deceptive society...Not to mention 100 percent third world style corruption and deception in our government and politics.
Sure if you like dictators like Modi.
Absolutely true my friend. I just returned back to Canada after a vacation in India and the change is already visible. Moreover life is easy back home. No hefty property tax, no water or energy bill. Internet and phone connection is dirt cheap like 12 CAD for 3 months. We already own a home and land mortgage free so I don’t have to start from zero. Only thing missing is some passive income. I am trying to build that and then probably I might move back
This is making me roll my eyes 🙄
Agreed. Bharath has changed and continues to. Modi is putting into motion for greatness!
The answer is pretty simple . They’re beginning to see the harsh reality living in Canada . Been here for a while after studies yet no job . Really sucks !
Cause Indians aren't good workers. No one wants their laziness. No one wants their dishonesty. No one wants their accent. Go back to India please.
Trudeau ruined the country with left politics. Used to be great with lots of O&G investment and high standard of living...

Fantastic news, please discourage your friends and family from coming here too.
$2700 average rent in Toronto. Grocery prices have over doubled since 2021. Taxes are rising. Interest rates are out of control in relation to home prices. $50K annual salary today is basically a $25K annual salary in 2021.
Jobs are hard to get, with HR departments over-screening like mad. Costs are rising and rents are crazy. Taxes are way too high. Oh, and the weather sucks. I'm Canadian and I make a so-called liveable wage, but I'm get barely getting by. Trudeau is allowing more than a million immigrants to come in every year. I feel sorry for them. They're being lied to. Many students are tricked into enrolling in diploma mill schools.
you can thank Trudeau for all of this!!!!
More lies, yet again. Grocery prices doubled? I think not. Such a drama queen.
I don't know where you shop...but my groceries have not doubled. Inflation numbers seen on the news align with the numbers I see in my grocery stores.
@9366 klaus shwab? is that you?
I remember back in 2015 when I got my PR under Canadian PhD stream. There was a motivation to bring in and keep well-educated people and post graduates from Canadian Universities. Guess what? This program is cancelled!
We left Canada semi-permanently in 2023. It's too cold, miserable, the travel distances wear you down, the people are generally unfriendly, the government is a mess, the currency is weak and getting weaker, the hours have always been long (2 weeks vacation a year, and be surprised if you're not fired right after), low incomes comparatively, a bad and getting worse healthcare system (re: thousands line up for one doctor accepting new patients in Kingston) and high taxes. Combine this with housing that will cost more than 70% of your income, overall the quality of life is low and there is no reason to be there.
Don't forget to turn off the light on your way out, have fun in that paradise that you found.... somewhere in the universe. 😵💫

@playerish May i ask - Did you went to Canada as PR? Which province in Canada did you live? What job did you have?
@@Hailey_1507 I did go there as PR, staying in Toronto and worked as field engineer. Salary wise speaking its average, I decided to go back to Sg because salary lot better here. Yes living cost is expensive but my saving margin is bigger. City is safe, I got my car robbed when I was in Toronto, weather is not bad, food is half way cheaper. There are pros and cons I would say. It's just matter of choice. Canada love immigrants, but immigrants might not feel Canada like home that fast.
I left Canada 3 years after I got the citizenship, because the cost of living was unbearable. I was living in 1 bedroom condo in Vancouver (Canada), with no cars or investment. In 2020 I found an entry lvl job at Amazon Seattle (US). My pay doubled, tax reduced by 50%. Sold my Canada condo, and bought a single family home and a car in Seattle. Never wanted to come back.

Washington state has no income tax. Good move from you. As a New Yorker, the state is MERCILESS when it comes to taxes and Long Island is merciless when it comes to property taxes and traffic violation fines. A red light camera ticket in Nassau County is $150, in Suffolk it’s $80. An NYC speed camera ticket is $92. A school bus violation is $250 for the FIRST offense. The fines go up ($275 and $300) the more times you run a stopped school bus. Our sales tax is nearly 9%. If you spend $100 on something it automatically becomes $109. New Jersey doesn’t have a sales tax on clothing so when people from NY go to NJ to see family or stuff like that, they often go clothes shopping because there’s no tax in NJ. NY income tax is nearly 9% as well.

For higher education, doctoral and masters, top Indian institutes are sadly lacking at least when it comes to tech. Most of the phds irrespective of domain , in India, have never done real research. There is a reason why highly qualified students from BITS, IITs, ISIs leave India after undergrad. Graduate studies are not worth in India. Indian colleges also lack the necessary infrastructure for things like ML. Professors are also very egotistical and arrogant and most importantly too proud to help students in fear of getting surpassed. Post undergrad these prestigious universities are nothing more than degree mills. Trust me I would know, I am from one.

It is not only in Canada, Australia has the same problem. In recent years, the government has allowed too many immigrants to enter the country without considering the consequences. The number of new immigrants is higher than new houses, which creates a housing and rent price issue.
The new immigrants won't outcompete you unless you mean they are bringing in skilled immigrants who will earn above the average. The housing crisis started from real estate investments. What do you expect when the upper class is actively buying family homes and renting them out at an increasing price? Blame your people and stop being xenophobic.
Oh i thought Australia only took cream crowd.
Your countries are empty. You have plenty of space.
Most of that space is desert and uninhabitable. People only live around the edges of Australia. We don't have the houses or infrastructure to cope with many immigrants. We have a cap of 250,000 a year which are mostly students and seasonal workers who then leave again. Building companies are going into liquidation every week because of cost of materials so new houses cannot be built even if the government wanted them to. Plus where are they going to build them? Keep destroying wild life habit for ever increasing population we don't need. Young adults these days will never own their own home and finding a rental is very hard. Increases in immigration make it worse which is why the government slashed the numbers@@Worldaffairslover
@@nicole_holding still empty nonetheless. Stop complaining about people from other countries. Start with yourself. Are you competing with them for housing? Says a lot more about you than them.
This is what happens when you do basically nothing to prepare for mass immigration, and let it happen anyways. The Canadian government has been kicking out the suports on our housing and jobs markets for decades now, and expects new wage slaves will keep coming to the country regardless. They're about to find out how wrong they were.
The entire scheme is aimed at ensuring the pension system has enough people to maintain it. Don't be surprised is you will begin to hear the possibility of privatization of the pension system or raising the retirement age , as it will become unsustainable to maintain that with lower population.
@@MrAlen6e Yeah Canadians on average expect they would need $1.7M to retire, yet the average RRSP holding per Canadian is $113k in 2023.

I guess the easy thing for gov to do is discourage immigration to Toronto and Vancouver. Canada has more cities than these two and excluding these cities, the housing is a lot more affordable. There are stories of people that have sold property in Vancouver and are able to buy multiple properties in Alberta or buy a house that is fully paid off.
Because Canadian citizenship doesn't give you lots of rights. In the EU, even if you get citizenship in one small country, you can easily move to another European country. I've worked 5.5 years in the Netherlands in an ordinary town. I'm a Dutch citizen now, and I can easily move to Paris/Brussels/Rome. I'm moving in the upcoming months. Europe is kind of one big country, and Canada is a sparsely populated state with a notoriously cold climate everywhere.
Canadian, who moved recently to Europe, here and totally agree and been saying the same for years!
Even Canadian born citizens donot have rights, our Charter of Rights.and Freedoms is tissue paper, for optics only. The covert domestic Security Industrial Complex has destroyed this country and they operate within our government institutions, from our courts to our banks and social programs.

This comes as no surprise. Beautiful country but living there has become too expensive
We killed the goose that laid the golden egg. The government expanded immigration numbers so high that it helped make life in Canada miserable for immigrants. The economic principle of supply and demand meant that our government's failures became known and prospective future immigrants are less likely to consider Canada because we're now getting a bad reputation.
Sure did. I might add that Canada was never attractive for high performing professionals since taxes are too high and salaries too low. Rich EU nations and USA have a lot more to offer th these highly qualified migrants, so you couldn't hang with the big boys.
Trudeau has made everyone's lives worse. You should read that bankers conference where the nations top economist said the Liberals screwed our population : capital ratio, this is called the "population trap." They turned us into the third world...Even those from the third world are leaving because economic conditions are so bad here.
It's what happens when you vote in an idiot three times even after all the red flags, Canadians have no one to blame but themselves. Right now Canada is in recession and has been for some time, the only way the government knows how to show growth is to bring in a million people per year to pay taxes.

Somehow people say they left Canada, or they planning to leave. But never say where to. Obviously, the grass is greener somewhere, but where exactly? I hear the same stories (expensive real estate, bad infrastructure, inadequate healthcare, rising crime, etc.) about almost any country.
i suppose, most immigrants who came from somewhere else went back there. For canadians....i would say Australia or New Zealand.
I lived in Canada for six years (2016-2022) and left to back home in Central Asia because in Canada everything became high. Back home one can easily make 2000-3000 USD monthly and no rent or scummy insurance etc expenses.
Bet they retain their Canadian passports, as a plan B.
@@bretonneux3389 I think AUS and NZ have pretty much the same problems, and the housing crisis there is even more severe. I see that people are either going back "home", or moving to cheaper places in Latin America or Asia if they retire or can work remotely, or just saying they want to leave, but actually they don't - like Americans that said they would move to Canada if Trump wins, but almost no one actually moved
@@RUHappyATM This is what happened to the Lebanese who immigrated to Canada first, then moved back keeping their Canadian passports, and then, when the new war broke up there, they started to ask Canada to evacuate them. At the expense of Canadian taxpayers, although they didn't contribute anything to the Canadian economy
I moved to Canada from the UK and am a permanent resident.
It's nice, but my Canadian wife and I want to move back to the UK.
Did you know people don't get annual holidays over here and the wages are bad?
I haven't been on holiday since I moved here years ago and I used to go on holiday every year back in the UK. I miss them so much, considering my mum is in Turkey and Egypt every year, I'm kinda bored in my little Canadian town surrounded by Tim Hortons and pick up trucks. It's not good for your mental health here

I also returned back to Europe in 2022. I am happy in Netherlands. Plenty jobs and cheaper living. In Toronto before I left, I was paying rent 2400 CAD/month including utilities, for a basement, ridiculous. After almost 15 years living in Canada, I was forced by poor living standards to come back to Europe. I had no more dreams, nothing, just to pay rent, food and car.
This problem is everywhere from Australia, UK to Canada !
Inflation is a big issue in Canada, unaffordable crazy prices, just barely survive like a beggar on food.
Unfortunately I feel wealthy immigrants have really contributed to the expensive housing. They buy up low income housing, kick everyone out of their homes, renovate then raise rents to outrageous prices. I feel we’re victims to wealthy immigrants investors who are just super greedy.
I immigrated from Iraq in the 90s (after the Kuwait war), my 1st job in Canada I made 9$/hr, enough for rent, groceries, car insurance...etc. few years later I started making 13$/hr, I bought my 1st house & never missed a mortgage payment.... how do new comers today start their lives, let alone buy their 1st house is mindboggling to me!!

I’m baffled by that too. It’s very difficult. We grew up during the best times.
Because it's a country that has no aspiration, no social cohesion, nobody cares, not even the government. Everything is expensive, healthcare system is failing. The list really goes on and on. And most people don't complain or like to hear you said anything bad about this country but more "normal" people are speaking up now I suppose.
We aspire to quality, not quantity. We definitely care and most of us have great lives. That's why we're not complaining. Happy people don't complain.
But I will admit that recently, the government has been trying to put on a good face for the media by increasing immigration limits and kicking the doors wide open for anyone and everyone. This created obvious problems- but not problems we can't fix. We just need to put focus back on ourselves and we'll be just fine.
Exactly and the government of Canada is so mean to foreigners.
They r taught to silent, mental health getting the best of them

Its not just Canada, I live in the UK and the crime is also up among other things like costs for basic stuff like food and transport.
The only thing going down is the standard if living.
i think you can replicate that to many english speaking western countries. Somehow all following same policies and expecting a different outcome.
allow me Canada has worsen A LOT in just 5 years ... you do not réalise . it is absolutely not like the uk
Which part of UK do you live? Transport cost (bus fares) has come down. For flat max fare of £2.00 you can go the entire bus route. I shop in J Sainsbury's where good food cost LESS.
The same problems in every Western country at the exact same time. Must just be a coincidence.
@@dash9963 London, it used to be 1.5 a year back, so that’s a 33% increase only on bus fare. Include food, mortgage, international travel. It’s bumper, maybe not as bad as Canadastan, but still bad enough.

Sorry but dealing with a lengthy illness is not something you can just "plan" for. And most of the jobs I've ever worked paid shitty wages. I've had one job, that paid me above 35,000/yr, and that business was bought out and lay offs occurred. But I guess that's my fault too?

Nonsense report
In 2022, India was the 1st country of origin of immigrants entering Canada (27% of the total), followed by China (7,2%), Afghanistan (5,4%), Nigeria (5%) and the Philippines (5%). It means there were more people coming from India alone than China, Nigeria, The Philippines and Afghanistan combined...
Even Punjabis are shunning Canada now dude. They are moving to upcoming developed countries like South Africa and Australia
It isn't worth it, enjoy your quiet landscape life
I was born and raised here. I am doing my exit plan as I cannot afford to live here as young-adult living on my own. The government knew exactly what they were doing when they allowed 9 million people to come here in a short amount of time. How can you provide billions for foreign aid but can't provide basic necessities to your own citizens? I have cut EVERYTHING extra out of my life and even while working a full-time job I cannot survive in my own country. Canada is a country for the elite, cliche style immigrants, and for the ultra wealthy who pass down intergeneration wealth. A failed health care system that provides little to no services at which you pay out of pocket to get access with private health care providers. You can't depend on transit as it is the mercy of the corrupt transportation/commissioners aka unions and the cost of gas is out of this world. I AM SO LUCKY I went to university and graduated when I did because the same degree would have cost 15k-20k more...food is super expensive...renting an apartment is seen as a form of luxury....you have to know someone to get basic things done. What a shameful society...a society that treats immigrants with upmost respect only to turn around looking the other way when it comes to homelessness...the housing crises...lack of employment oppts, gosh I can go on. My brother was lucky enough to move to Dubai and cash in on his savings by investing it into his properties where he pays 0 tax on his salary from his job.
The real problem is the Education Industrial Complex. Universities and schools earn immense revenue from international students. You cut that, schools will start to close.
Let them close.
good riddance. the university system is a broken scam anyways.
So, you appear to be saying that universities and colleges educate foreign students, the proceeds stay within the college and university system, but the impact in terms of food, housing and health care is absorbed by the rest of the population. Add to this that DEI denies entry to the same population that is supposed to support the impacts on housing, food and health care, and denies jobs to those few who do get in and graduate you have a problem, Let these colleges and universities be closed down.
@@carolynb.9840 We need more unemployed people! lol 🤔
There also is the real estate mafia. I believe they work with the government officials. It looks like the immigration itself exists to bring in money from outside to buy overpriced non brick pasteboard houses here.

Yeah that is me. I came from Australia originally but the economic (and housing) prospects are abysmal. Both my home country and the one across the border pay significantly higher for the same industry. There is no reason to stay as a young person.

This video is very misleading. That tailor at the beginning of the video was said to have gone to study at a university in Toronto. I am pretty sure it’s not University of Toronto or any university near Toronto from the way he was conversing with the journalist. It was most likely a private college that offered a PG Diploma. No wonder he wasn’t able to find a job. International students coming to Canada to do a PG Diploma is the biggest immigration loophole that the government recently put restrictions on.
you are making wild guesses
@@mizutofu Do you see the dude and think he went to UoT? Lmfao People like them go to diploma mills to learn "business administration" then work at Tim Hortons and urinate publicly. Indian or other immigrants who go to top Universities find good jobs and make a lot of money. Its only the 99% of students coming in as diploma mill grads who fuck the place.
A few years ago I got job offer to work in Canada, it looked attactive in the beginning until we went over the offered wage which was slitghly above my income working in the US, the issue came up when I saw how much I would get net in my pocket after taxes, social security, etc, the amount was lower to my net income at that time, and comparing the higher cost of life in Canada (home rent, grocery, utilities, etc) vs USA, oh man!!, I had to turn it down. I cannot imagine how expensive it is to live in Canada these days, but for sure it must be a way higher. I kind understand why this decline of citizenship applications is happening.
I think Canada should stop application from India because a lot of Indians do not contribute to Canadian economies, instead they just want to get the Canadian passport to enable themselves to use the health system of Canada
Bingo!
The Indian health system is better than Canada's. At least they won't die waiting for a doctor.
the system that's falling apart? that's full of burnt out nurses, short of doctors and under incredible strain? that's the system they want to use?
Health care is definitely not the reason.
It's pretty cheap and better in India.
Canada is earning a ton of money by selling worthless diplomas.

The article claims that for decades, immigrants have fuelled Canada's ecomonic growth. Ok, but what about strengthening its culture, to ensure that in the long term, this country remains successful? No, from what i have seen, the breakneck rate of immigration has hollowed out Canada's culture. What I see around me are newcomers that are not being integrated, or that outright refuse to, or are openly hostile to the host culture. How any of these people believe that Canada can remain successful, and them also, as a result, is beyond me. To me, it seems obvious we need a pause and reset and I'm doubtful that this small decrease in applications will achieve anything.
"Strengthening its culture " , genuine question but what culture? canadian cant even agree on what that mean if anything Water down American culture and suburbia is not culture. West doesn't stan the east , English Canada doesn't like Quebecois ( the Quebecois themselves don't have their own issues ) and first nations culture is no even acknowledged in the canadian mainstream society so what culture do you speak of ? Half of Canada doesn't even want a monarchy...
Sir, I do not know your background, but if you are Canadian, then you are certainly a symptom of the problem. I'm just taken aback when someone brings up this question, of what is Canadian culture, does Canada even have one? It seems to be a very popular talking point nowadays. But ok I will humor you by sharing my viewpoint. As an immigrant myself I will tell you what I have observed to be distinct features of Canadian culture, and one can argue Western culture more broadly: a foundation based on English Common Law, a belief that the individual is responsible for their own success, self reliance, self determination, high value placed on individual competency, the aversion to corruption, a high standard for human rights (including groups that have traditionally been regarded as marginalized, I.e. women, racial minoroties), engaging in civil public debate, high tolerance/ acceptance for differing viewpoints, cultures. I could still go on. The problem I see today, from my immigrant perspective, is that these distinct cultural features, which are undeniable when I compare them to the culture which I grew up in, are being taken for granted and are actively being eroded. I see whole lot of "Canadians" that are blind to all these wonderful features of Canadian society and not able to see the danger in allowing them to be eroded.

Many have left after staying for less than a year. I know several families, personally.
The Canadian government, including its departments and agencies responsible for immigration and citizenship, appears to lack empathy for individuals who immigrate to Canada in pursuit of their dreams and a better life. It is incomprehensible that the immigration department takes more than two to three years to process applications for permanent residency or citizenship. Instead of addressing the delays, they offer excuses such as the impact of Covid-19 or conflicts like the one in Ukraine. Meanwhile, applicants endure significant mental stress and hardship during this prolonged waiting period, unable to secure suitable employment or pursue education. Government officials seem indifferent to these struggles, leaving individuals feeling helpless and frustrated. The situation feels dire, with no avenue for recourse or resolution.
With this insane prices Canada will be loosing more and more people. People now come here then turn around as soon as they see the price insanity. This country is not good to migrate to anymore, and the government not doing nothing to fix the problem. Prices are a huge turn off about Canada.

Canada is Joke. Trudeau is a Comedian. Canadians are frog in the well.they don't know
As Canadian born raised here we've tremdious growth over the decades specially inside areas outside the GTA. One the biggest issues facing everyone here besides immigrants is taxes / inflation. Our government only looks at those coming from India as cash cow to keep things rolling economically more people more taxes are paid. Canada needs to start being more economic minded by reducing all taxes abroad to make cost of living more affordable.
Even Canadian leaving Canada man.. because of unemployment, deteriorating law and order..and everything is so expansive
What "thousand? Over a million, mostly Indian ppl go to Canada every year, in hopes of a better life and this is possible by the loopholes on the Canadian Immigration system. Temp students go to Canada never to return home after graduation, as they are allowed to apply for a work permit, then for a residency (P.R) which is not possible in other countries. I don't blame these young ppl for wanting a better life, however Immigration Canada lies to these ppl and gives them false hope.
In reality, Mega corporations need unlimited source of cheap labor and after all the Government incentives and tax write-offs, these ppl are basically working for free, main while paying 3 to 4 times more for college, eventually becoming residents, aka Economic migrants. Colleges are laughing and getting rich, so are the banks..
As nice as it seems, My suggestion is; Do NOT go, you will regret it at the end !
It's pointless to apply for Canadian immigration. It takes years to review and costs a lot of money. If you just show up in Canada as an illegal immigrant or refugee, your application will be free and fast tracked. You will also receive financial support from the government. So immigration is not declining. Just the legitimate types. Just ask any Canadian taxpayer for more details.
Biggest issue in Canada is infrastructure. Canadian infrastructure and urban planning is a copy of post war American suburbia abd the results are that it has made housing impossible as the current rules basically has abolished any construction of missing middle housing for the middle class in 90% of Canadian neighborhoods for housing. Infrastructure and services in medium and small cities are nowhere near major city hub making big city centers expensive not even mentioningthe terrible public transportation they have ( for a G7 nation is an embarrassment that their passenge rail service is 40 years behind Europe) . In addition foreign degrees even from English nations are not recognized and it takes years and resources to get accreditation.
Canada is now a much different place than in 1996 when I moved to this country which I called home since. Cost of leaving is really punishing for many and retiring here while maintaining a decent life style is almost impossible for regular people. I'm already planning my retirement in other places and I'm well on my way of achieving it. This is the unfortunate situation which many Canadians are currently facing. Gone are the proverbial good old days.
Because average cost of a residential house in Canada is almost 800000 and there are no jods or infrastructure rents are about 2000 for one bedroom it's sad.
