Honestly, life is very simple in Canada. Work 2 to 3 jobs for 30 years to pay off your million dollar house then retire in your 60s then end up in nursing home in your 70s or 80s then you die. The end.
Not to sound nega pero yan ang katotohanan. One more walang Social life kc mahirap makipagkita sa mga friends kung meron ka man. Dahil sa magkakaibang work schedule dahil karamihan multiple jobs
@@retired_in_portugal because you're Portuguese from Toronto if people who don't have European background they have no place to go unless they go to States but there is shit
@robertrobski1013 I'm not Portuguese, Born and raised in BC, moved to Portugal under the article 77 visa (commonly referred to as the D7 visa) also never live in Toronto, but I'd be happy to forward a few links to you if you're interested
My partner and I are done with Canada and will be relocating to my home country in Europe. After 7 years here, sadly Canada is no longer a good place to live. No access to healthcare and no life balance.
I moved to Europe and then Asia. Lived in a few places. Of all the countries I've moved to as an expat, Canada offered the worst value for dollar and worst quality of life. UK, UAE, Japan, all better than Canada. The Philippines sucked as a serious expat and even then at least for the poor quality services and infrastructure, costs of rent and cellphone service were low to match.
I am an Indian who came here for a graduate degree at a top school on scholarship, my family nor me are very rich, we are comfortably middle class, and coming here opened my eyes to how good healthcare is for the average person in India. Apart from who are truly destitute Indian healthcare is almost as universal as Canadian healthcare with imo much much much better competency. Drugs are easier to get too. The only drugs that are easier to get in Canada are the wrong kind you see people take outside metro stations. I abhore the Canadian healthcare system, especially in cities like vancouver, toronto and montreal. Having to wait 18 hours in ER for a consultation while I am dying of pain in my whole face. Yeah no thank you. The sad part is, the immigrants who leave first are the ones Canada wants for their economy and work force. Such a bad policy.
In the next decade or two, India may well go the way of China and become the other manufacturing giant. It is likely that there will be many more good job opportunities in India than in the US and Canada.
you folks already made Brampton a sick place to live and now infesting other parts of GTA. I am tired of hearing " proud to be Indian". If you really love your country go back and stay there. Never ever come out of it.
Talking with Canadians about the recent five to ten years you get the picture of what's wrong with the country, and it all begun with an unjustified inflation that has removed purchasing power from millions of people. This directly affected the bottom line of housing affordability and without a high-paying job everything collapses.
Inflation in inevitable in a capitalistic-driven economy. Canada and the world are driven by the toxic, unsustainable market capitalistic economic incentives for profit maximization. That is the major cause of the challenges for affording life in Canada, and all over the world. The areas that seem to do better, generally have more social supports, like Finland or Denmark, or full of really rich people like Monaco. The system is the sickness. That is what needs to change if we want to have a better life to look forward to. The answer is mostly definitely not voting a new party in power. That is something people can do, when it is time, hopefully after doing their research, but that is 2 years away for Federal change of politics in Canada, so if people think that is answer, they are fooling themselves. Want real change? Start educating yourself more and sharing it with others. Many sources are out there: Channels such as Second Thought, Our Changing Climate, World Beyond Capitalism, TZMOfficialChannel, Moneyless Society, Democracy at Work and Michael Tellinger are some great sources to start with.
The whole world inflated homie. Globalized capitalism is what’s wrong with society. When money and capital is given more power and priority than actual human labor and invention this the mess we get into.
It everywhere inflation is everywhere.I don’t think it a Canadian problem I think it a countries was shut down and these countries spent a lot of money now you and most people in most countries wanna go fasicist but the funny part everyone wanna go fasicist too.
The government should not be worried about immigrants leaving, they should be worried about Canadians leaving Canada. Immigrants are cash cows, but Canadian citizens are meant to be for life-long-term investment. It ain’t gonna happen if the environment is insufferable.
My dad came to Canada in 1951. He says that it was a wonderful place to live, work and raise a family...THEN. He now says that if he'd known what was going to eventually happen to this wonderful country, he'd have never have immigrated here. That's a terrible indictment of what this country has become.
Are you aware that no country on Earth is sustainably meeting their people's needs? Canada is not unique. The system is the sickness, not the people, not the bad politicians. The problems like poverty, inflation, violence, homelessness, hunger, waste and healthcare delays are all because we are in late stage capitalism, which only serves the rich getting richer due to the profit motive and all the other unsustainable incentives inherent to the monetary-market economy. I know that is not common knowledge but it is true. You are free to do you own research or challenge me on any of these points, and I can point to the sources and/or explain the reasoning. The solution is building a better system, from the bottom-up, community level first, with willing others, so that we do have a future to look forward to. With cooperation, collaboration and co-ownership, we can start doing this today, and well into 2024.
Assuming that most immigrants come to Canada as economic immigrants, the reason they are leaving the country is simple - the country is simply economically no longer attractive nor competitive. There are other reasons too, like sharply declining healthcare. Overall, Canada is a country in "free fall".
@@frasertones8519 I agree, most of the world is doing badly but some countries are doing worse (like Canada). My preferred destination is Europe but not the big cities. Austria is, for example, a country that I admire a lot (search how Vienna is addressing housing)! The government HAS to work for its citizens, not for some interest groups. There is no need for reinventing the wheel, study the countries that are doing well and apply (what is applicable) to your country. After all, Austria, Denmark, Iceland, Norway, etc. are not in some other galaxy so there are commonalities.
I couldn't agree with you more. Canada should be looking to European nations to learn from them on social issues as well as climate change and many other things. It frustrates me to no end to see what's happening but I find it very naive for people on here to say that they are going to leave Canada for greener pastures. Where are they going? To Switzerland? New Zealand? Scandinavia? Good luck!!! They have VERY strict immigration policies. Then where else? America? Their government is in shambles and crime is off the charts compared to Canada. Look at ANY Freedom Index list and Canada is always higher than the US and almost any other country for that matter. I've heard people say Mexico... are they joking? It might be good for THEM with their dollar income but the Mexican government DOES NOT take better care of it's citizens than Canada. By a LONG shot. So... where are they going?@@user-gc5vm9dn2h
@@user-gc5vm9dn2h None of those countries accept immigrants, not even Canadian ones, let alone South Asian ones. Stop dreaming that the grass is greener somewhere else.
I had a dream to immigrate to Canada more than 10 years ago but I didnt have enough money, I was able to move to Europe 5 years ago but the canadian dream has been always with me... Unfortunately, Canada has changed a lot in the last 5 years and I dont know why, but I no longer see the same country that once enchanted me, IDK how they were able to mess up with an extraordinary country like that
Trudeau is a socialist. Any country that has socialism will get messed up and it takes decades to recover after you have had socialism. So your country is basically finished for the next 40 years if you go that route.
@@anishdey1189 And to Unroast the chickens takes how long? Argentina had Perron a long time ago. Argentina was one of the top countries in the world before Perron and socialism and its still hasn t recovered. France had socialism under Mitterand back I. 1980 and still has not recovered. Venezuela 3 rd country in the world with biggest proven oil reserves. Now 70% live in poverty. How long will that take to recover from the chickens left to roost?
I am colombian living in canada for 23 years. I was happy here until 3 years ago went government started attacking people's liberties!! I am getting ready to leave. This is not the place I wanted for my kid!!
Oh sure and in Colombia there is so much freedom that historically it's totally normal to see a lot of people fleeing away as refugees to other countries because they exposed whatever corrupt/incompetent politician or anything that "affects" negatively to a very few but yet very powerful and evil people. And now they're being chased to death. And when they seek help from the authorities not only they refuse to help them, they also team up with the ones who are chasing them.
I’ve met some Colombian people who after living in Canada for some years they decided to go back to Colombia or to the USA. Definitely Canada is not the land of opportunities the Government claims.
@@Berlina18 You should ask them if they went back to Colombia to work like the majority of people work there, no contract of any kind (this means not even the salary is guaranteed and can be below the minimum which is 250 dollars…per month) or if they manage to find something to work for just a hundred dollars more than the minimum and working the double they used to work here (in Colombia it’s normal to see jobs that require you to work even 60 hours per week for barely above the minimum). The ones who go back to Colombia because they are better financially only represents like less than the 5% of the population, for the majority of the rest even living as a homeless in Canada is a huge upgrade for how they live in Colombia.
Issues Canada faces: 1. Try to find a family doctor accepting new patients. Canada has a doctor shortage. 2. Housing.. either housing is over priced or employees are under paid. The other problems, like over priced groceries are small potatoes compared to the first 2 problems. If Canada tackles housing affordability and medical staff shortages, it has a million other positive aspects going for it.
Oh I heard of this just last week! Am in Africa and was shocked to learn that a doctor migrating to Canada would not get employed in his profession unless he studies the profession afresh! That would mean a wastage of his 1st 04-05 years in Medical School before Canada! I thought it was batsh*t crazy! Strange to see that it is true!
I am a Physical Therapist who tried to get a license in Canada. They turned me down because my school in the USA no longer has a physical seal. They sent my records with an electronic seal. So Canada turned me down. I'm a really good Therapist and I would love to work there. I am a Canadian citizen. I can see why they have a shortage of qualified medical workers.
Sounds like Australia! Same issues here. Drs not accepting new patients or waiting for over week or 2 for an appointment and don't mention the housing crisis here!
It’s so weird - the exact same thing is simultaneously happening in Canada, the US, the UK, Ireland and Australia and more…It’s almost like…it’s all being coordinated (sarc). Seriously- notice how the *exact same* “playbook” is being used to overwhelm and neutralize EVERY democracy, AND any politicians expressly trying to maintain their country’s *sovereignty* or increase their self sufficiency are “magically” all being painted as racist and/or fascist . Why might this be happening?
Oh wait! You mean you don't want to stay here where: - you have to wait 3 hrs to see a doctor in a clinic or 8 hrs in a hospital -you don't get paid enough to live comfortably - rent is 75% of your income if not 90% and buying a home is impossible ( landlords won't properly fix anything either and you're lucky to even get one that's not some management company that you can rarely even get through to or passsed on to voicemail machines) - you get to travel the country on one lane roads where you can't pass for like an hour -you freeze your butt off and have a prime minister mandate stuff and then freeze your money when you try to enact free speech -you get live with mice and sometimes roaches because land lords are allowed/enabled to be slum lords - you can't afford groceries which most nearly as much as you pay in rent a month -you get paid unlivable wages and poor treatment from employers -you see people all over the place dying or hunched over high on drugs -you see homeless people everywhere that the government doesn't properly help -it's insanely cold but you can't afford to heat your home -where there's many bed bug problems all over the place -there's tons of crime all over the place because the police do nothing even if you call them for help -no one is held accountable and just pass the buck off to someone else while the problem only gets bigger -tuition costs a fortune, there's no guarantee you'll get a career position, most jobs are only part-time offered, or temporary positions - the streets are filthy and everyone smokes, vapes, does drugs right next to you in public etc.....
I was punched in the face by someone while walking in a well lit sidewalk in Surrey, British Columbia. Thank you, Canada for that traumatic experience. I was 18.
Useless news! What’s important is that Canadian born citizens are leaving. We built this country and now it’s being given away. I for one can no longer afford to live here unless I’m planning to work until I die. I fought and defended this country for over 12 years, grew up in a family who gave their entire life to our military and government…….and for what? Many veterans have either already left or like myself are looking for a new home in a new country.
My wife is Korean, and she and her Korean friends think Canada is clown world, she's constantly amazed how docile native Canadians are to the government, big corporations and far-left activists, letting them get away with incompetence and corruption that would end Korean political careers and destroy political parties in Korea. Basically she said in South Korea politicians and political parties fear the voters and are very careful not to outrage voters, as Korean voters don't blindly vote party lines but will all vote together to punish incompetence and corruption. I told her that Canadians ARE politically meek, if the government demanded we get a bar code tattooed on our butts 95% of Canadians would grumble and comply.
Canada is like a 3rd world country, but Korea too is rotten to the core. There're a lot of Korean immigrants in Canada, which explains how f**ked up Korea is with the highest suicide rate and the lowest birth rate in the world, with a high possibility of a war in the future.
I’m Canadian Citizen I’m among that left the country since years agoes never looking back the videos it’s spot on. Please don’t waste your time I’m a hard worker License nurse it’s a struggle just to be able to have a social life everything it’s money highly costly living etc….
I'm so glad you found a way to escape the cancerous growth, oppression and exploitation of the monetary-market system... Oh wait... you just tried running from a country thinking the country was the problem, or the politicians, and didn't know that the system was the sickness? Well, you can still find that out now! And maybe contribute to the building of a better system, rather than avoiding the sinking ship of capitalism. Channels to consider: Second Thought, Our Changing Climate, World Beyond Capitalism, TZMOfficialChannel and Michael Tellinger.
I’m Canadian - born and raised. But I’ve thought about moving abroad multiple times. No where is 100% better but Canada has definitely become real bad over the last 5-10 years. Unfortunately my family won’t leave and I have obligations to them (help provide and care for my parents) so I won’t be leaving anytime soon but wish I could. 😅
Never be ashamed of being born Canadian, but these problems began much earlier, just the governments have hidden this very well until the past few decades. Canadians are as much victims as are those encouraged to immigrate here.
I don't know a lot Canadians but i thought that other countries were better although I feel that Canada and USA already won't be rich countries. @melissabray2983 I like your way thinking.
The quality of life in the Philippines, no matter how poor we are, could not be compensated by whatever promise there is in Canada. Overall, the Philippines nonetheless has plenty of beauty, comfort, satisfaction, and happiness for those who are hard-working and socially adept to keep their relationships warm with friends and relatives. While there is so much money in Canada, its growing ugly side, which expatriate Filipinos themselves could attest to, is becoming more and more irritating. It is better to invest one's talent in one's native land here and just visit Canada as a dignified tourist than as an unenthusiastic citizen in that country.
Well Canada is about working 80 hours a week and having no money at the end of the month . Yep . True . And if we don't recognize foreign credentials, oh well , get an education here like everyone else .
@@kyleklukas4808well, the Canadian Government promotes beautifully Canada as the land of opportunities and never ever says to professionals that their credentials are not valid and even less that only certificates from Canadian Universities or from the Commonwealth are valid. The Public Sector and the Private Sector are not in the same page. Do not expect from professional immigrants with plenty of experience to go back to school just because the country does not like their background. I am one of them, by the way.
@@kyleklukas4808 If you're working 80 hours a week, I know it's just a metaphor, and still have no money at the end of the month, there must be some problem with your budgeting. Just don't spend more than what you make; that's a golden rule. you can't solely blame the system when it comes to foreign credential assessment, especially when it may not align with the standards of the Canadian workforce. For instance, degrees earned in the Philippines may be deemed equivalent to only two years of study in Canada because the first two years of undergraduate study in the Philippines are completed during grades 11 and 12. Take, for example, many Pinay registered nurses; when their credentials are assessed, they may be categorized only as registered practical nurses, requiring an additional 2 to 3 years of study to achieve the designation of a Registered Nurse (RN).
As tourists? To see their roads? Buildings? What else they have to offer? Nothing. We have those too. And warm climate, beaches. Go to Bali, dubai. Anywhere in Asia. Not Canada. Snow, cold, deserted
We've been here 15 years landed during the recession. Started with zero, minimum wage jobs. We've upgraded our skills, educated ourselves about finances. Now we paid off our home and debt free. Soon to hit our 1st million networth. If you've been here for 25 years with nothing to show for, it's on you.
I couldnt even get a job in Canada, i moved to the US and found the job in 1 month. I got 40 interview calls in 1 week. In canada i got 1 interview call in 4 months
If you are not prepared for the challenges and consequences, it is advisable not to leave the country. However, your decision that makes you happier is always the best. Every country may not be suitable for everyone. While the Philippines might be the best option, the problem is that corruption is rampant, and the bureaucracy and healthcare systems are not up to par.
So true and other than rampant corruption and poor health care, Philippines is a better place to live. If only everyone of us would live a life considerate of each other's welfare especially among the politicians and even the rebels/NPAs, Philippines would be a very blessed country and its citizens would not think of leaving.
@@tripelon i guess corruption runs everywhere (the least corrupt country so far is Singapore) and just differs on its severity or the lack of laws that would deter corruption. As to health care, I don't think it is worst in Canada though with so many immigrants and refugees they've been welcoming, there's now shortage of health professionals.
There's already enough inexperienced and unqualified people who seem to be unable to do their jobs. So, now let's go ahead and accept substandard education and training. Many immigrants leave when they realize that all their money goes to pay for the inflated prices of everything. The salaries seem high when they compare it to where they come from, but when they realize the cost of living here, they soon realize most Canadians live from paycheck to paycheck. This is not the dream life they pictured. Go ahead and kick one of the hundreds of thousands of homeless Canadians on the way to work. What a disaster Canada has become.
For example a person is paid $4400 per month. That's P180,000 per month. That is huge for the Philippines but barely enough to live in Canada depending where you live. With deductions, only approximately $3000 is left for living expenses per month. $1500 could be for rent only (a 1 bedroom apartment)!
i don't know man. I know a filo couple just came here, had their first car in like barely 6 months. and they seem to be doing just fine, working in the IT industry. It's all about the mindset and the person's profile. if someone is a blue collar worker back in their home country, and came here doing the same work, low wage, manual labor, then that's a disaster. it's a case to case basis. canada is not for everybody.
@@jobreferral-v7m The IT industry is significantly weaker than the US IT industry, so I highly doubt that they're making a significant amount of money. It sounds like they're living off financing, which is very common for Millennial Filipinos (and unfortunately many fall into debt). Many Filipinos in IT actually stay in the Philippines since they'll make more than doctors thanks to Fiver/Upwork. It's why I find this a little less believable - it's definitely not the norm. If they were in IT in the Philippines, then they'll objectively have a better quality of life doing online work with American companies while staying in their home country. This Filipino couple is probably struggling a lot behind the scenes, especially if they came in the past 6 months. You also have to consider utang or sending money back home - many Filipinos come abroad to support their families.
Majority of immigrants in Canada are considered at least middle class citizens back in homeland. So many of them don't really expect themselves and their kids doing Uber drivers or manual laboring as a living in Canada. They all compete for white collar job like they had back home, but those occupations are more likely reserved for Canadians who finished 4 year post secondary education. You want a better life for your kid? Your kid may have a better life here, but that will cost you and your wife careers you both had.
Canada is not the same country I so loved many years ago. Such a shame corrupt politicians ruined my beautiful Canada. I will move elsewhere if given a chance.
@@Tjd1982 On average. The Canadian Gov takes roughly 30% from your pay cheque. That is insane. So if you make 100k per year. The Canadian gov take 30k from you. Dude it is not only the immigrant who are leaving. My buddy who I used to worked with at the banks. He packed up in 2018, took the wife and kids to Australia. Then there are my two other friends I've known since in my teens. They wanted to leave as well. The only reason why they haven't decided is because of the kids. That should tell you something right there......
Most jobs are regulated with strict license requirement. The exam OET needed to become a registered nurse in UK is many times simpler than Enclex in US and Canada. Thats the core issue. Only few jobs accept foreign experience and no license like IT. Govt needs to realize this.
The truth about immigration is that it is not designed for everyone, taking on a gamble to leave a country or state for province for another is risky move but guess what if you are resilient enough the first few years are always the toughest, and then you gradually navigate the system as you rebuild your life. Unfortunately for immigrants (I am an immigrant myself) people think they will come to a new country and start earning six figures right off the bat. While that may be true for some, not the same for all.
No new Canadian should ever be making 6 figures while Canadians starve. All foreigners making that amount should be splitting their work and salary with a starving local Canadian....or get out. Wealth hoarders.
@@ThangPham-xv9by No. I'm from a family who has been in this country for 8 generations but is being blockaded from the workforce by racist newcomers. WE're sick of the foreign entitlement. We used to be colorblind but you folks are making it obvious you're not here to JOIN the communities. You're trying to TAKE them. We took the stats. You foreign folks are paying yourself 1.5 to 2 times what we got paid to do the jobs. And we did those jobs. Most of you aren't doing the services. Or are blockading the local peoples from them. You shouldn't be there if this is how you treat the peoples who tried to welcome you.
Low wages is the biggest problem. I have always said, you don't get rich by saving money, you get rich by earning money. I am not a racist and I have nothing against the immigrants but you have to think logically and understand that when you flood the country so fast with so many immigrants and students that majority start to look minority in their own country, it going to create a cultural shock and employers will exploit paying peanuts for even skilled work simply because there are too many people. Please limit a fair mortgage rate for first home buyers only and give 3x mortgage to 2nd or more home buyers and do strict background check so they don't buy the 2nd/3rd house on their spouse's or kid's name.
I agree that mass migration is ruining Canada. Immigration is good when kept at reasonable levels among foreigners who can be hired to construct houses or those who can establish businesses that produce jobs. But many of the immigrants coming into Canada are neither.
I left that xenophobic country called Canada where discrimination is rampant. Never been so happy and my money goes a long way now. I was wasting so much stupidly in Canada.
Vancouver is the most racist place in the world. Horrible racist people. Could never find work. Now I am in the states and I am on my fourth degree, I am a small business owner and Registered Nurse. Thank God I left that god forsaken province.
I'm a born and raised Canadian. Canada is very unaffordable! Taxes are one of the highest in the world. Taxes, taxes and more taxes. Healthcare is in the toilet! It is impossible to find a family doctor. Seeing any specialists comes with very long waiting list.

Part of the problem is that there are too many part time jobs and not enough full time jobs , also the cost of living is simply too high, rents are going through the roof so you have to cram 2 families into a tiny 4 and a half especially in Alberta and BC ,was the same in the 90's when I was living in Surrey, no.way a tiny 3and a half is worth 3000$ anywhere in Canada and that was the 90's
Canada is super cold, super boring and super woke. With competition from other developed (and more exciting) countries for the qualified workforce, Canada has to change a lot to retain and attract new qualified immigrants. Maybe a good start would be to rescue common sense.
Part of the discussion needs to be that the standard of living is growing worldwide. Highly talented individuals with skills now have options that they didn’t have in the past in there home countries. The gap is shrinking. Think china the opportunities today compared to 30 years ago. We need to up our game and this competition can be a good thing

Nice when you have dollars hitting your bank monthly. But most of your Filipino neighbors in the Philippines will be working or immigrating overseas to make a living.
There's a lot of money that goes back to, (not just) the Philippines, from individuals that work here. I heard a figure, a few years back now, of about 6 billion dollars, annually. That was just to the Philippines. But I do like and appreciate them as a people. This country is way overtaxed and this present government is so ridiculous in its governing. Deceive like the devil
That's why for me abroad is only a place to work earn and go home relax and enjoy few years left in life, i never considered to migrate here in Australia,
boost Canadas econemy? sounds like pure greed. Let more low standard workers in to compete with the workers that we already have here and its a recipe for disaster. When Canadians have to compete for work with people who will at all costs work longer and harder doesn't sound like a win for Canadians, rather international business moguls who rely on this cheap wage and no workers union in the workplace. IF Canadians stand up and say that they don't want it they are labeled as lazy and unskilled racist. I myself take great offense in this. This is my country and at this point all I can see is that Liberal and NDP need to go at all cost.
It's good that you're pointing out mass migration because that is indeed one of the root causes of Canada's predicaments. Immigration is a good thing if it is kept at reasonable levels and if the people coming into the country have skills that can produce housing or jobs. But many of the immigrants that are going into Canada can neither work in construction nor establish enterprises that will hire the locals.
@edlubitz2968 Yes , it's madness. The single biggest myth is that immigrants are good for the economy. !! They depress wages and increase demand for housing . What's even worse : they destroy all sense of Social Cohesion and National Identity . You see the results all around you ? ( ps. I'm not Canadian but as a frequent visitor I notice these things perhaps more clearly. ? ).
Been living in Van for 17 yrs, now were in Ph more than a year already. Medyo napahinga ang katawan sa lamig,nawala ang pananakit ng kalamnan at nakakatulog na ng maayos at hindi kelangan maghabol ng oras as what I've experience in Ca. Canada is a really beautiful country it is good to migrate if you have enough money to support and live while looking for a job or study or else you were just working your butt just to pay your debt. Be financial literate is a must, create a good credit so that when you need it most the bank will lend you. Then eat,sleep,work, pay your bills, save,invest, take vacation. Repeat the cycle or invest then partly retired early.😊😊
I am a Canadian citizen and I left in 2010. I live in the US and I became a US citizen. I can buy today a house I can call home in Houston Texas for a 250K US being 40 minutes by car to Houston. That is impossible in Canada. Canadians pay more taxes than Americans already plus winter tax ( all things you need to buy to have a life during winter). If you are a Canadian Citizen with no prospects to get a home, you may consider coming to the US. Despite all issues we have, it is still a better deal I find.
I live in Canada and planning to leave and some people ask me why. and i say. Im wasting my time here if i cannot afford a place for myself, i don't want to live with parents till 40.
I have lived half of my life in Canada and I can say in the early 2000's is the best time in Canada because cost of living is affordable. But now with the inflation.. the cost of living is so high. I live very minimalist and earning above minimum wage but I am already struggling to pay rent and feed me and my son what more for people who are earning minimum wages. Owning a house is almost impossible. Wages cannot keep up with the inflation plus taxes on wages are very high. House and car Insurance are so expensive and property taxes are ridiculously high. Finding a job is very challenging because employers will hire the person who had Canadian education first before they hire immigrants who had education outside Canada. Weather here is so depressingly cold, there's only 3 months of summer...the rest of the year is very cold. Healthcare system is not as good as before. I dont know if accepting immigrants can help Canada it will only drag the wages down due to many new immigrants. The only people who will benefit on this are the businessess that will pay minimum wages to desperate immigrants. If you are unemployed in the Philippines its ok to come to Canada but if you have a stable job in the Philippines you might as well stay in the Philippines. It's not worth it. The retirement earnings here will barely pay half of your rent. Even people who die here got taxed here. Eating healthy in Canada is expensive because fruits and vegetables are imported. Fish are very expensive here so Filipinos eat a lot of meat- chicken, pork and beef which is unhealthy. This is why Canada has high number of people with Cancer. I miss all the fresh fruits, vegetables and fish in the Philippines. The only thing that holding me back going back to the Philippines is my son. He still doesn't realized the high cost of living here because he is still young. But someday he will realize that there are other places to live where you can live a healthier and happier lives if you learn to live without material things in life.

Then go to Russia or to any other country with a conservative government. Let's see if you are still going to complain about Canada. You have the freedom to leave if you are not happy.
@@mjdin4705You nincompoop, the US is just south of Canada. Even Canadians will earn more in the US. Go for the Republican state to avoid the rainbow delulu epidemic. Even Canadians are leaving due to low salary.
Is it just immigrants leaving? Each year the Canadian population increases, and Canadian family sizes are at less than a replacement rate. So, what gives?
If you are expecting to come here as a new immigrant and have the easy way , then your probably 100% wrong. You need to work really hard to get to the top. If after seven years you quit and leave Canada then why come here in the first place. Welcome to Canada!!!
Don't forget the native Canadians who are now planning on leaving Canada for the States. Around Texas and Tennessee, the cost of housing is fairly low while the wages are still pretty good, leaving people with the ability to buy a house with only 30% of their family income. Half of the workers at the company where I work at, just North of Toronto, plan on moving out of Canada if rents and the cost of food double from where they are now, they simply won't be able to afford Canada.
I don't understand why anyone would want to come to the US right now. Our housing situation is out of control. Food, gas and utilities are also expensive.
There are a lot of Canadians leaving. I was surprised to see many Canadians in Bucaramanga and Medellin Colombia. The weather is nice and the quality of life is very good. It's not what you see on Netflix. Thriving economics and affordable housing in very cool areas
Not recognizing credentials and experience from home countries is a HUGE problem in Canada. Its efforts to seek benefits from immigration will be useless if this continues. In fact it will create integration issues which will create social issues. The Canadian government needs to slap employers on the wrist to stop obsessing over this local experience madness.
But this credentials thing is not only in canada. You cant just simply accept a degree from another country. But they should make a standard test for foreign to take and not make them go to the university again for 4-5 years.
Not all countries, nor credentials are the same. To be specific, you cannot compare the top 15 Canadian universities with universities from immigration countries that are not even in the top 500 world rankings. The immigration policies are out of touch with reality - both local and foreign.
@@catsexual3412. Lawyers, I can understand having credential issues since the law they studied isn’t applicable in a foreign country. Medical degrees are a different animal, but standard practices can vary significantly even between western countries like
Those who migrate to Canada from a country where they "suffered" more in various ways will not feel these relatively minor, temporary inconveniences & would be willing to put up with these for long term benefits. They are willing to work hard & have faith that equitable rewards will be gained in Canada rather than in their own countries. It is those who expect to find the pot of gold in the short term, who will be disappointed.
Maybe they just realized quick the American dream is just that. A dream. Apart from some sort of "safety" there are pretty much at this point zero advantages for immigrants from poor countries. Its a nice gig these guys have impoverish and in some cases destroy countries (through NATO) then offer this immigrants a solution to immigrate and work like slaves in canada😂 and then what kiss their feet?
Immigrants have no particular feelings or attachment to Canada. It's simply a place to make money .Immigration Policy over past 30 years has destroyed all sense of National Identity.
Canada decimated it's manufacturing and energy sector on the altar of globalism. We were told that the future would be hi-tech and that we would soon be basking in the wealth of jobs generated by the technology sector. Except for working in an amazon warehouse or driving for Uber, these tech jobs never materialized. Meanwhile the once good jobs that sustained generations of Canadians since the early 1900's are gone. Once a country stops making things it is no longer free.
I am Latino '- Chilean. , and with a lot of experience in hr, I left Canada 3 days ago because of lack of opportunities for the Latino, at least in the greater Toronto and Waterloo area where I was there is a lot of discrimination with the Latino and they only hire people from India. a clear example just go to any Walmart in Kitchener and it is full of Indians. I think the discrimination is great. goodbye to the Canadian dream.
Oh I heard of this just last week! Am in Africa and was shocked to learn that a doctor migrating to Canada would not get employed in his profession unless he studies the profession afresh! That would mean a wastage of his 1st 04-05 years in Medical School before Canada! I thought it was batsh*t crazy! Strange to see that it is true!
At this point, migrating to Canada is not a wise move if you are already an establsihed individual professionally/financially. Not worth it, as they say you have to start again and it is hard to find the space that you left from where you came from. Either you have to upgrade your studies to get the status that you expected. That thing they licensing bodeis that BS. I guess they have the law I dont know if the ones in power implemented it. One thing too everything in Canada nowadys is soo expensive, 5- 10 years ago housing is affordable now, the rent the prices is up to the roof nobody who is newcomer can afford to have one. You will grow old not owning a house nowadays if you are anewcomer you will be forever a renter.
Sometimes I wonder who's truly in charge of the country. When the Canadian Immigration and Border Services take three years to process a Permanent Resident application and another three years for a citizenship application, it makes one question the desirability of staying in Canada, especially considering the additional waiting times for health tests and doctor's appointments.
They go to Canada, get the passport by taking an oath & when their new adopted country is going through hard times, they leave & bounce around the world using the freedom & privilege that the Canadian passport provides & when things get better, they waltz right back in.
One major problem is new immigrants lack self respect and will work like dogs and slaves for the employer for low pay and long hours. This turns the work culture terrible for the locals who respect their time and prioritize work life balance.
you see better stay in own country, and i hope the Africans will leave Europe but unfortunately many more come by little boats ( all illegal immigration)
It's not "alarming". Immigrants leave one place and go to another in order to find better living conditions. It would be absurd for immigrants to stay in Canada if living conditions were difficult or not suitable.
Filipino friends of mine and I graduated from the same program this May in Ontario but they already moved to Grand Prairie in Alberta for full time job and I’m probably moving to Halifax for the full time position. I can easily imagine many new immigrants go through hardship finding a job that provide for family and make a living through housing crisis.
Not recognising foreign credentials are a problem. We lack people with critical skill sets and that is only going to increase. It has been said that Toronto has the world's most qualified cab drivers. The other issues are employment, unbelievably expensive housing and the carbon tax driving up the cost of living.
If our country's educational system could meet the Canadian standard, there would be no problem with our credentials competing in the Canadian workforce. Yes, when you apply here as an immigrant, they require you to have a degree, but it does not guarantee that you could practice it when you get here. Additionally, getting a degree in top universities in Canada is no joke. For example, in medical schools or law schools, they only accept applicants with magna or summa GPA.
As it should be. Despite what is advertised by our corrupt government, you need to be able to speak and articulate in English or French. As a medical professional, bedside manner is a must! But being able to be understood by the current citizens is paramount. You must learn to articulate in English or French, even go for speech therapy, I did. Thick, strong accents are a huge barrier. If you are in healthcare, you must be able to be understood, and you must have a compassionate and caring bedside manner. As for lawyers, no one needs more of those.
I love this country and always will. One of saddest days in my life was when I had to leave it, because I could not see any future for me, staying there at that moment. Now, maybe in the future, I will came back again.
migrants or people settled here 20-30 years have absolutely no voice in these problems. Canada even 10 years ago was completely different. A migrant that came here 3-4 years ago can't see a future with a family and a house even with a very good salary. In the last two years rents and inflation skyrocketed, the weather is horrible and there is nowhere to go or visit except the West coast. That's why people are going back to Europe, India, or phillippines. Because it's not worth it to stay in Canada!
If youre an immigrant and wanted to have white collar job in canada you must study and earn their canadian diploma or licensure certificate, unless you're a proprietor of a certain business or company. Medyo marami kasing professional dito sa Pinas na ayaw ng blue collar jobs pero balewala kasi ang pagiging md, lawyer, teacher, etc mo pag tungtong mo ng Canada, kukuha ka pa dyan ng course sa na related sa profession mo dito sa Pinas para makatrabaho ka ng ayon sa gusto mo
The harsh winters may be another reason why many immigrants also leave. Most of them come from the tropics, or countries where the winters are mild; it’s too much of a shock to get used to.
Though that applies to recent batches of immigrants, please remember that just because they came from countries closer to the equator doesn't mean that they don't get harsh winters. Many countries have mountains and many countries may be at higher altitudes than most Canadian towns and cities. Yes, winters are harsh here, but frankly if you dress for it, you're fine and they know that.
@@andreamcgurran3577 it depends what you consider harsh, Mount Everest the highest place on earth only regularly reaches -35°C we get that every winter, and most climates clearly aren't as high altitude as that. Most migrants will not have experienced a winter like this, unless they're from Tibet, or Siberia.
Better invest in yourself and be an entreprenuer and self sustaining. With the advance technology and social media, be better in any field you choose. Be passion about what you want in life and stick to it. Moving to another country can be daunting and sometimes frustrating and you end up being an employee for life and with INFLATION goin at a faster rate (and there is no signs of going down), it is better to explore your own talents and cultivate entrepreneurial assets so you can be your own boss and not to anyone and not dependent to any country or entity.

My partner and I are done with Canada and will be relocating to my home country in Europe. After 7 years here, sadly Canada is no longer a good place to live. No access to healthcare and no life balance.
I moved to Europe and then Asia. Lived in a few places. Of all the countries I've moved to as an expat, Canada offered the worst value for dollar and worst quality of life. UK, UAE, Japan, all better than Canada. The Philippines sucked as a serious expat and even then at least for the poor quality services and infrastructure, costs of rent and cellphone service were low to match.
where are u from
Leave. Good riddance.
I am an Indian who came here for a graduate degree at a top school on scholarship, my family nor me are very rich, we are comfortably middle class, and coming here opened my eyes to how good healthcare is for the average person in India. Apart from who are truly destitute Indian healthcare is almost as universal as Canadian healthcare with imo much much much better competency. Drugs are easier to get too. The only drugs that are easier to get in Canada are the wrong kind you see people take outside metro stations. I abhore the Canadian healthcare system, especially in cities like vancouver, toronto and montreal. Having to wait 18 hours in ER for a consultation while I am dying of pain in my whole face. Yeah no thank you.
The sad part is, the immigrants who leave first are the ones Canada wants for their economy and work force. Such a bad policy.
@CoCo-qi5nrso what? You mean living on credit and credit cards give you the status of upper class?
In the next decade or two, India may well go the way of China and become the other manufacturing giant. It is likely that there will be many more good job opportunities in India than in the US and Canada.
Ive seen utubes on life for poor in india its hertbreaking ok
You will be home before you know it.
you folks already made Brampton a sick place to live and now infesting other parts of GTA. I am tired of hearing " proud to be Indian". If you really love your country go back and stay there. Never ever come out of it.
Talking with Canadians about the recent five to ten years you get the picture of what's wrong with the country, and it all begun with an unjustified inflation that has removed purchasing power from millions of people. This directly affected the bottom line of housing affordability and without a high-paying job everything collapses.
Inflation in inevitable in a capitalistic-driven economy. Canada and the world are driven by the toxic, unsustainable market capitalistic economic incentives for profit maximization. That is the major cause of the challenges for affording life in Canada, and all over the world. The areas that seem to do better, generally have more social supports, like Finland or Denmark, or full of really rich people like Monaco.
The system is the sickness. That is what needs to change if we want to have a better life to look forward to. The answer is mostly definitely not voting a new party in power. That is something people can do, when it is time, hopefully after doing their research, but that is 2 years away for Federal change of politics in Canada, so if people think that is answer, they are fooling themselves.
Want real change? Start educating yourself more and sharing it with others. Many sources are out there: Channels such as Second Thought, Our Changing Climate, World Beyond Capitalism, TZMOfficialChannel, Moneyless Society, Democracy at Work and Michael Tellinger are some great sources to start with.
That's called Capitalism.
Everyone suffers but they are all so stupid that they defend it.
The whole world inflated homie. Globalized capitalism is what’s wrong with society. When money and capital is given more power and priority than actual human labor and invention this the mess we get into.
@SergeiTorockov Government printing money to heavily subsidize welfare policies, this caused inflation and fueled furthermore the housing bubble.
It everywhere inflation is everywhere.I don’t think it a Canadian problem I think it a countries was shut down and these countries spent a lot of money now you and most people in most countries wanna go fasicist but the funny part everyone wanna go fasicist too.
The government should not be worried about immigrants leaving, they should be worried about Canadians leaving Canada. Immigrants are cash cows, but Canadian citizens are meant to be for life-long-term investment. It ain’t gonna happen if the environment is insufferable.

This is what happens when you put a left wing leftists Nazi Communist DICTATOR Justinder Trudeau PM... Ruin this nation, Canada is a total mess now .
Are you aware that no country on Earth is sustainably meeting their people's needs? Canada is not unique. The system is the sickness, not the people, not the bad politicians. The problems like poverty, inflation, violence, homelessness, hunger, waste and healthcare delays are all because we are in late stage capitalism, which only serves the rich getting richer due to the profit motive and all the other unsustainable incentives inherent to the monetary-market economy. I know that is not common knowledge but it is true. You are free to do you own research or challenge me on any of these points, and I can point to the sources and/or explain the reasoning.
The solution is building a better system, from the bottom-up, community level first, with willing others, so that we do have a future to look forward to. With cooperation, collaboration and co-ownership, we can start doing this today, and well into 2024.
U can say the same about the whole west .
70+ years is a good run.
Assuming that most immigrants come to Canada as economic immigrants, the reason they are leaving the country is simple - the country is simply economically no longer attractive nor competitive. There are other reasons too, like sharply declining healthcare. Overall, Canada is a country in "free fall".
but we in Europe are really tired of the economic migrants from Africa or the Middle-East, we like they throw them out, enough is enough

@@frasertones8519 I agree, most of the world is doing badly but some countries are doing worse (like Canada). My preferred destination is Europe but not the big cities. Austria is, for example, a country that I admire a lot (search how Vienna is addressing housing)! The government HAS to work for its citizens, not for some interest groups. There is no need for reinventing the wheel, study the countries that are doing well and apply (what is applicable) to your country. After all, Austria, Denmark, Iceland, Norway, etc. are not in some other galaxy so there are commonalities.
I couldn't agree with you more. Canada should be looking to European nations to learn from them on social issues as well as climate change and many other things.

And now they're being chased to death. And when they seek help from the authorities not only they refuse to help them, they also team up with the ones who are chasing them.

@@Berlina18 You should ask them if they went back to Colombia to work like the majority of people work there, no contract of any kind (this means not even the salary is guaranteed and can be below the minimum which is 250 dollars…per month) or if they manage to find something to work for just a hundred dollars more than the minimum and working the double they used to work here (in Colombia it’s normal to see jobs that require you to work even 60 hours per week for barely above the minimum).
The ones who go back to Colombia because they are better financially only represents like less than the 5% of the population, for the majority of the rest even living as a homeless in Canada is a huge upgrade for how they live in Colombia.

1. Try to find a family doctor accepting new patients. Canada has a doctor shortage.
2. Housing.. either housing is over priced or employees are under paid.

- you have to wait 3 hrs to see a doctor in a clinic or 8 hrs in a hospital
-you don't get paid enough to live comfortably
- rent is 75% of your income if not 90% and buying a home is impossible ( landlords won't properly fix anything either and you're lucky to even get one that's not some management company that you can rarely even get through to or passsed on to voicemail machines)
- you get to travel the country on one lane roads where you can't pass for like an hour
-you freeze your butt off and have a prime minister mandate stuff and then freeze your money when you try to enact free speech
-you get live with mice and sometimes roaches because land lords are allowed/enabled to be slum lords
- you can't afford groceries which most nearly as much as you pay in rent a month
-you get paid unlivable wages and poor treatment from employers
-you see people all over the place dying or hunched over high on drugs
-you see homeless people everywhere that the government doesn't properly help
-it's insanely cold but you can't afford to heat your home
-where there's many bed bug problems all over the place
-there's tons of crime all over the place because the police do nothing even if you call them for help

My wife is Korean, and she and her Korean friends think Canada is clown world, she's constantly amazed how docile native Canadians are to the government, big corporations and far-left activists, letting them get away with incompetence and corruption that would end Korean political careers and destroy political parties in Korea. Basically she said in South Korea politicians and political parties fear the voters and are very careful not to outrage voters, as Korean voters don't blindly vote party lines but will all vote together to punish incompetence and corruption.
I told her that Canadians ARE politically meek, if the government demanded we get a bar code tattooed on our butts 95% of Canadians would grumble and comply.
I'm not Korean however I agree 100%.
She's absolutely right
Canada is like a 3rd world country, but Korea too is rotten to the core. There're a lot of Korean immigrants in Canada, which explains how f**ked up Korea is with the highest suicide rate and the lowest birth rate in the world, with a high possibility of a war in the future.
Joe Rogan called Canada as Turdeau's communist $h ! t h0le. I can see why.

I’m Canadian - born and raised. But I’ve thought about moving abroad multiple times. No where is 100% better but Canada has definitely become real bad over the last 5-10 years.
Unfortunately my family won’t leave and I have obligations to them (help provide and care for my parents) so I won’t be leaving anytime soon but wish I could. 😅
Never be ashamed of being born Canadian, but these problems began much earlier, just the governments have hidden this very well until the past few decades. Canadians are as much victims as are those encouraged to immigrate here.
I don't know a lot Canadians but i thought that other countries were better although I feel that Canada and USA already won't be rich countries.

The quality of life in the Philippines, no matter how poor we are, could not be compensated by whatever promise there is in Canada. Overall, the Philippines nonetheless has plenty of beauty, comfort, satisfaction, and happiness for those who are hard-working and socially adept to keep their relationships warm with friends and relatives. While there is so much money in Canada, its growing ugly side, which expatriate Filipinos themselves could attest to, is becoming more and more irritating. It is better to invest one's talent in one's native land here and just visit Canada as a dignified tourist than as an unenthusiastic citizen in that country.
Well Canada is about working 80 hours a week and having no money at the end of the month . Yep . True . And if we don't recognize foreign credentials, oh well , get an education here like everyone else .
@@kyleklukas4808well, the Canadian Government promotes beautifully Canada as the land of opportunities and never ever says to professionals that their credentials are not valid and even less that only certificates from Canadian Universities or from the Commonwealth are valid. The Public Sector and the Private Sector are not in the same page. Do not expect from professional immigrants with plenty of experience to go back to school just because the country does not like their background. I am one of them, by the way.
@@kyleklukas4808 If you're working 80 hours a week, I know it's just a metaphor, and still have no money at the end of the month, there must be some problem with your budgeting. Just don't spend more than what you make; that's a golden rule. you can't solely blame the system when it comes to foreign credential assessment, especially when it may not align with the standards of the Canadian workforce. For instance, degrees earned in the Philippines may be deemed equivalent to only two years of study in Canada because the first two years of undergraduate study in the Philippines are completed during grades 11 and 12. Take, for example, many Pinay registered nurses; when their credentials are assessed, they may be categorized only as registered practical nurses, requiring an additional 2 to 3 years of study to achieve the designation of a Registered Nurse (RN).
Canadians are moving to Philippines now so that says it all.
As tourists? To see their roads? Buildings? What else they have to offer? Nothing. We have those too. And warm climate, beaches. Go to Bali, dubai. Anywhere in Asia. Not Canada. Snow, cold, deserted

I've been here since 25 yrs but planning to leave soon also. Canada is just not the same country and changed so much in the last 10 yrs.
Thank you... Door is wide open to accomplish your biggest contribution yet
@eddover6876 Yet, you should be the one leaving first with that sh*tty attitude.
We've been here 15 years landed during the recession. Started with zero, minimum wage jobs. We've upgraded our skills, educated ourselves about finances. Now we paid off our home and debt free. Soon to hit our 1st million networth. If you've been here for 25 years with nothing to show for, it's on you.

I couldnt even get a job in Canada, i moved to the US and found the job in 1 month. I got 40 interview calls in 1 week. In canada i got 1 interview call in 4 months
If you are not prepared for the challenges and consequences, it is advisable not to leave the country. However, your decision that makes you happier is always the best. Every country may not be suitable for everyone. While the Philippines might be the best option, the problem is that corruption is rampant, and the bureaucracy and healthcare systems are not up to par.
Well, Philippines is US vassal so of course it follows the master footsteps.😂
So true and other than rampant corruption and poor health care, Philippines is a better place to live. If only everyone of us would live a life considerate of each other's welfare especially among the politicians and even the rebels/NPAs, Philippines would be a very blessed country and its citizens would not think of leaving.
i mean... canada is also corrupt (not as deep i guess), and Health in Canada is the worst i've seen in my life (not a philipino)
@@tripelon Really, I never thought Canada would be the way you described it. I'm for sure still better than the Philippines.
@@tripelon i guess corruption runs everywhere (the least corrupt country so far is Singapore) and just differs on its severity or the lack of laws that would deter corruption. As to health care, I don't think it is worst in Canada though with so many immigrants and refugees they've been welcoming, there's now shortage of health professionals.
There's already enough inexperienced and unqualified people who seem to be unable to do their jobs. So, now let's go ahead and accept substandard education and training. Many immigrants leave when they realize that all their money goes to pay for the inflated prices of everything. The salaries seem high when they compare it to where they come from, but when they realize the cost of living here, they soon realize most Canadians live from paycheck to paycheck. This is not the dream life they pictured. Go ahead and kick one of the hundreds of thousands of homeless Canadians on the way to work. What a disaster Canada has become.
For example a person is paid $4400 per month. That's P180,000 per month. That is huge for the Philippines but barely enough to live in Canada depending where you live. With deductions, only approximately $3000 is left for living expenses per month. $1500 could be for rent only (a 1 bedroom apartment)!
basically Canada "welcomes" slaves. There is basically no future here. No house, no love, no family, no children. Only work until death.
i don't know man. I know a filo couple just came here, had their first car in like barely 6 months. and they seem to be doing just fine, working in the IT industry. It's all about the mindset and the person's profile. if someone is a blue collar worker back in their home country, and came here doing the same work, low wage, manual labor, then that's a disaster. it's a case to case basis. canada is not for everybody.
@@jobreferral-v7m The IT industry is significantly weaker than the US IT industry, so I highly doubt that they're making a significant amount of money. It sounds like they're living off financing, which is very common for Millennial Filipinos (and unfortunately many fall into debt). Many Filipinos in IT actually stay in the Philippines since they'll make more than doctors thanks to Fiver/Upwork. It's why I find this a little less believable - it's definitely not the norm. If they were in IT in the Philippines, then they'll objectively have a better quality of life doing online work with American companies while staying in their home country.
This Filipino couple is probably struggling a lot behind the scenes, especially if they came in the past 6 months. You also have to consider utang or sending money back home - many Filipinos come abroad to support their families.
i only college graduate but earn big i grammar even bad have bad grammar is me
Alarming? We can barely house and give health care to Canadians.
You f up really hard when even immigrants are leaving.
Majority of immigrants in Canada are considered at least middle class citizens back in homeland. So many of them don't really expect themselves and their kids doing Uber drivers or manual laboring as a living in Canada.
They all compete for white collar job like they had back home, but those occupations are more likely reserved for Canadians who finished 4 year post secondary education.
You want a better life for your kid? Your kid may have a better life here, but that will cost you and your wife careers you both had.
this is sooooo true, I told this to a friend who wanted to come here with wife and 1 year old baby.

They want cheap labour. And ur taxes. Hungry politicians. They want money. Only money. Earn,give them
The number of native born Canadians leaving also says it all. All it takes is 8 years of an inept Trudeau government.
The truth about immigration is that it is not designed for everyone, taking on a gamble to leave a country or state for province for another is risky move but guess what if you are resilient enough the first few years are always the toughest, and then you gradually navigate the system as you rebuild your life. Unfortunately for immigrants (I am an immigrant myself) people think they will come to a new country and start earning six figures right off the bat. While that may be true for some, not the same for all.
The big brain move is to move to the US right after gaining Canadian citizenship.

Low wages is the biggest problem. I have always said, you don't get rich by saving money, you get rich by earning money. I am not a racist and I have nothing against the immigrants but you have to think logically and understand that when you flood the country so fast with so many immigrants and students that majority start to look minority in their own country, it going to create a cultural shock and employers will exploit paying peanuts for even skilled work simply because there are too many people. Please limit a fair mortgage rate for first home buyers only and give 3x mortgage to 2nd or more home buyers and do strict background check so they don't buy the 2nd/3rd house on their spouse's or kid's name.
I agree that mass migration is ruining Canada. Immigration is good when kept at reasonable levels among foreigners who can be hired to construct houses or those who can establish businesses that produce jobs. But many of the immigrants coming into Canada are neither.
I left that xenophobic country called Canada where discrimination is rampant. Never been so happy and my money goes a long way now. I was wasting so much stupidly in Canada.

stop romanticising a poor life when you're privilege
Nice when you have dollars hitting your bank monthly. But most of your Filipino neighbors in the Philippines will be working or immigrating overseas to make a living.
Say whatever you want after collecting money from rights countries, your words are meaningless
There's a lot of money that goes back to, (not just) the Philippines, from individuals that work here. I heard a figure, a few years back now, of about 6 billion dollars, annually. That was just to the Philippines. But I do like and appreciate them as a people. This country is way overtaxed and this present government is so ridiculous in its governing. Deceive like the devil
That's why for me abroad is only a place to work earn and go home relax and enjoy few years left in life, i never considered to migrate here in Australia,
boost Canadas econemy? sounds like pure greed. Let more low standard workers in to compete with the workers that we already have here and its a recipe for disaster. When Canadians have to compete for work with people who will at all costs work longer and harder doesn't sound like a win for Canadians, rather international business moguls who rely on this cheap wage and no workers union in the workplace. IF Canadians stand up and say that they don't want it they are labeled as lazy and unskilled racist. I myself take great offense in this. This is my country and at this point all I can see is that Liberal and NDP need to go at all cost.
It's good that you're pointing out mass migration because that is indeed one of the root causes of Canada's predicaments. Immigration is a good thing if it is kept at reasonable levels and if the people coming into the country have skills that can produce housing or jobs. But many of the immigrants that are going into Canada can neither work in construction nor establish enterprises that will hire the locals.
@edlubitz2968

I am a Canadian citizen and I left in 2010. I live in the US and I became a US citizen. I can buy today a house I can call home in Houston Texas for a 250K US being 40 minutes by car to Houston. That is impossible in Canada. Canadians pay more taxes than Americans already plus winter tax ( all things you need to buy to have a life during winter). If you are a Canadian Citizen with no prospects to get a home, you may consider coming to the US. Despite all issues we have, it is still a better deal I find.
I live in Canada and planning to leave and some people ask me why.
and i say.
Im wasting my time here if i cannot afford a place for myself, i don't want to live with parents till 40.
I have lived half of my life in Canada and I can say in the early 2000's is the best time in Canada because cost of living is affordable. But now with the inflation.. the cost of living is so high. I live very minimalist and earning above minimum wage but I am already struggling to pay rent and feed me and my son what more for people who are earning minimum wages. Owning a house is almost impossible. Wages cannot keep up with the inflation plus taxes on wages are very high. House and car Insurance are so expensive and property taxes are ridiculously high. Finding a job is very challenging because employers will hire the person who had Canadian education first before they hire immigrants who had education outside Canada. Weather here is so depressingly cold, there's only 3 months of summer...the rest of the year is very cold. Healthcare system is not as good as before. I dont know if accepting immigrants can help Canada it will only drag the wages down due to many new immigrants. The only people who will benefit on this are the businessess that will pay minimum wages to desperate immigrants. If you are unemployed in the Philippines its ok to come to Canada but if you have a stable job in the Philippines you might as well stay in the Philippines. It's not worth it. The retirement earnings here will barely pay half of your rent. Even people who die here got taxed here. Eating healthy in Canada is expensive because fruits and vegetables are imported. Fish are very expensive here so Filipinos eat a lot of meat- chicken, pork and beef which is unhealthy. This is why Canada has high number of people with Cancer. I miss all the fresh fruits, vegetables and fish in the Philippines. The only thing that holding me back going back to the Philippines is my son. He still doesn't realized the high cost of living here because he is still young. But someday he will realize that there are other places to live where you can live a healthier and happier lives if you learn to live without material things in life.

I lived in Canada for 12 miserable years as an immigrant. Best day of my life was when I left Canada and went back to my native country. Canada sucks!
Is it just immigrants leaving? Each year the Canadian population increases, and Canadian family sizes are at less than a replacement rate. So, what gives?
If you are expecting to come here as a new immigrant and have the easy way , then your probably 100% wrong. You need to work really hard to get to the top. If after seven years you quit and leave Canada then why come here in the first place. Welcome to Canada!!!
Don't forget the native Canadians who are now planning on leaving Canada for the States. Around Texas and Tennessee, the cost of housing is fairly low while the wages are still pretty good, leaving people with the ability to buy a house with only 30% of their family income. Half of the workers at the company where I work at, just North of Toronto, plan on moving out of Canada if rents and the cost of food double from where they are now, they simply won't be able to afford Canada.
I thought US americans are leaving the US for Canada?
I guess I am not updated to current events.
I don't understand why anyone would want to come to the US right now. Our housing situation is out of control. Food, gas and utilities are also expensive.
So the Canadians will drive up the price of housing?
They are called snowbirds that go to U.S in our winter months, Canadians don't go to the U.S, unless they are actors or doctors.👍
States is the same garbage as Canada .
There are a lot of Canadians leaving. I was surprised to see many Canadians in Bucaramanga and Medellin Colombia. The weather is nice and the quality of life is very good. It's not what you see on Netflix. Thriving economics and affordable housing in very cool areas
Not recognizing credentials and experience from home countries is a HUGE problem in Canada. Its efforts to seek benefits from immigration will be useless if this continues. In fact it will create integration issues which will create social issues. The Canadian government needs to slap employers on the wrist to stop obsessing over this local experience madness.
But this credentials thing is not only in canada. You cant just simply accept a degree from another country. But they should make a standard test for foreign to take and not make them go to the university again for 4-5 years.
Not all countries, nor credentials are the same. To be specific, you cannot compare the top 15 Canadian universities with universities from immigration countries that are not even in the top 500 world rankings. The immigration policies are out of touch with reality - both local and foreign.
@@user-gc5vm9dn2h dude, canada makes it impossible even for lawyers and doctors who were educated in the US (a superior nation) to ply their trades.
@@bruce5868 Didn't know, that is complete nonsense if they have a degree from an accredited US institution/university!
@@catsexual3412. Lawyers, I can understand having credential issues since the law they studied isn’t applicable in a foreign country. Medical degrees are a different animal, but standard practices can vary significantly even between western countries like
Those who migrate to Canada from a country where they "suffered" more in various ways will not feel these relatively minor, temporary inconveniences & would be willing to put up with these for long term benefits. They are willing to work hard & have faith that equitable rewards will be gained in Canada rather than in their own countries. It is those who expect to find the pot of gold in the short term, who will be disappointed.
Maybe they just realized quick the American dream is just that. A dream. Apart from some sort of "safety" there are pretty much at this point zero advantages for immigrants from poor countries. Its a nice gig these guys have impoverish and in some cases destroy countries (through NATO) then offer this immigrants a solution to immigrate and work like slaves in canada😂 and then what kiss their feet?
Immigrants have no particular feelings or attachment to Canada.
It's simply a place to make money .Immigration Policy over past 30 years has destroyed all sense of
National Identity.
Canada decimated it's manufacturing and energy sector on the altar of globalism. We were told that the future would be hi-tech and that we would soon be basking in the wealth of jobs generated by the technology sector. Except for working in an amazon warehouse or driving for Uber, these tech jobs never materialized. Meanwhile the once good jobs that sustained generations of Canadians since the early 1900's are gone. Once a country stops making things it is no longer free.
Canada can't compete on the global stage.
Its not alarming. It just means they decided that somewhere else is better. They are merely doing what is best for them.
They are leaving because of the Liberal Party of Canada
I am Latino '- Chilean. , and with a lot of experience in hr, I left Canada 3 days ago because of lack of opportunities for the Latino, at least in the greater Toronto and Waterloo area where I was there is a lot of discrimination with the Latino and they only hire people from India. a clear example just go to any Walmart in Kitchener and it is full of Indians. I think the discrimination is great. goodbye to the Canadian dream.
A number of Canadians born and raised are leaving too....wonder why????
Oh I heard of this just last week! Am in Africa and was shocked to learn that a doctor migrating to Canada would not get employed in his profession unless he studies the profession afresh! That would mean a wastage of his 1st 04-05 years in Medical School before Canada!
I thought it was batsh*t crazy! Strange to see that it is true!
Those who succeed in Canada are those who has the right mindset.
At this point, migrating to Canada is not a wise move if you are already an establsihed individual professionally/financially. Not worth it, as they say you have to start again and it is hard to find the space that you left from where you came from. Either you have to upgrade your studies to get the status that you expected. That thing they licensing bodeis that BS. I guess they have the law I dont know if the ones in power implemented it. One thing too everything in Canada nowadys is soo expensive, 5- 10 years ago housing is affordable now, the rent the prices is up to the roof nobody who is newcomer can afford to have one. You will grow old not owning a house nowadays if you are anewcomer you will be forever a renter.
Sometimes I wonder who's truly in charge of the country. When the Canadian Immigration and Border Services take three years to process a Permanent Resident application and another three years for a citizenship application, it makes one question the desirability of staying in Canada, especially considering the additional waiting times for health tests and doctor's appointments.
I'm Canadian and I want to leave this country as well.
Where will you go? The US? Is that any better?
hard work, low wages, high rents.
That's not quality of life.
And the winter weather.
Tumpak
Rat race canada pa more!
Wasn't Canada having issues with a sudden influx of immigrants coming in? My understanding is that there's been a major issue with lack of housing.
i cant believe the saying "go woke go broke" applies to an entire nation 😂😂😂
Odd...most other countries are complaining about too many immigrants....Canada is worried about too few? Something odd here...
They go to Canada, get the passport by taking an oath & when their new adopted country is going through hard times, they leave & bounce around the world using the freedom & privilege that the Canadian passport provides & when things get better, they waltz right back in.
One major problem is new immigrants lack self respect and will work like dogs and slaves for the employer for low pay and long hours. This turns the work culture terrible for the locals who respect their time and prioritize work life balance.
not surprising to me, am a 35 year immigrant.
things have gotten tougher compared to back then, although “you need Canadian experience” still exists.
I came to Canada in 2012. Canada was a different country then. Then came the sunny ways and its been downhill since
I'm from Europa - I'm here 6 years - no jobs for professional drivers...
I have children and we must come back to Europe
you see better stay in own country, and i hope the Africans will leave Europe but unfortunately many more come by little boats ( all illegal immigration)
It's not "alarming". Immigrants leave one place and go to another in order to find better living conditions. It would be absurd for immigrants to stay in Canada if living conditions were difficult or not suitable.
Filipino friends of mine and I graduated from the same program this May in Ontario but they already moved to Grand Prairie in Alberta for full time job and I’m probably moving to Halifax for the full time position. I can easily imagine many new immigrants go through hardship finding a job that provide for family and make a living through housing crisis.
Then go back to asia
Not recognising foreign credentials are a problem. We lack people with critical skill sets and that is only going to increase. It has been said that Toronto has the world's most qualified cab drivers. The other issues are employment, unbelievably expensive housing and the carbon tax driving up the cost of living.
If our country's educational system could meet the Canadian standard, there would be no problem with our credentials competing in the Canadian workforce. Yes, when you apply here as an immigrant, they require you to have a degree, but it does not guarantee that you could practice it when you get here. Additionally, getting a degree in top universities in Canada is no joke. For example, in medical schools or law schools, they only accept applicants with magna or summa GPA.
As it should be. Despite what is advertised by our corrupt government, you need to be able to speak and articulate in English or French. As a medical professional, bedside manner is a must! But being able to be understood by the current citizens is paramount. You must learn to articulate in English or French, even go for speech therapy, I did. Thick, strong accents are a huge barrier. If you are in healthcare, you must be able to be understood, and you must have a compassionate and caring bedside manner.
As for lawyers, no one needs more of those.
@@meekopal2369other countries has better educational standards than canada.
Absolutely.
@@Tamisinafulthere are many other professions out there and all of them are not recognized for not having Canadian certificates. That is ridiculous!!
I love this country and always will. One of saddest days in my life was when I had to leave it, because I could not see any future for me, staying there at that moment. Now, maybe in the future, I will came back again.

Where did you move to?
migrants or people settled here 20-30 years have absolutely no voice in these problems. Canada even 10 years ago was completely different. A migrant that came here 3-4 years ago can't see a future with a family and a house even with a very good salary. In the last two years rents and inflation skyrocketed, the weather is horrible and there is nowhere to go or visit except the West coast. That's why people are going back to Europe, India, or phillippines. Because it's not worth it to stay in Canada!
Give more opportunity to Canadians, don't worry about immigrants.
If youre an immigrant and wanted to have white collar job in canada you must study and earn their canadian diploma or licensure certificate, unless you're a proprietor of a certain business or company. Medyo marami kasing professional dito sa Pinas na ayaw ng blue collar jobs pero balewala kasi ang pagiging md, lawyer, teacher, etc mo pag tungtong mo ng Canada, kukuha ka pa dyan ng course sa na related sa profession mo dito sa Pinas para makatrabaho ka ng ayon sa gusto mo
The harsh winters may be another reason why many immigrants also leave. Most of them come from the tropics, or countries where the winters are mild; it’s too much of a shock to get used to.
With global warning, the winters are not that harsh anymore. We did not get a lot of snow for the holidays this year..
Yeah.... um.... NO.
@@maximeamblardbergeron7823and just after we get -30 in some places
Though that applies to recent batches of immigrants, please remember that just because they came from countries closer to the equator doesn't mean that they don't get harsh winters. Many countries have mountains and many countries may be at higher altitudes than most Canadian towns and cities. Yes, winters are harsh here, but frankly if you dress for it, you're fine and they know that.
@@andreamcgurran3577 it depends what you consider harsh, Mount Everest the highest place on earth only regularly reaches -35°C we get that every winter, and most climates clearly aren't as high altitude as that. Most migrants will not have experienced a winter like this, unless they're from Tibet, or Siberia.
Better invest in yourself and be an entreprenuer and self sustaining. With the advance technology and social media, be better in any field you choose. Be passion about what you want in life and stick to it. Moving to another country can be daunting and sometimes frustrating and you end up being an employee for life and with INFLATION goin at a faster rate (and there is no signs of going down), it is better to explore your own talents and cultivate entrepreneurial assets so you can be your own boss and not to anyone and not dependent to any country or entity.
tama. yan din yung sinabi nung tatay ng kaibigan ko kagabi. tama pala sya na ang opportunities ngayon nasa Asia. Tapos na sa mga western countries. Kaya mag negosyo na lang daw sa pinas kesa mag abroad
15 dollars per hour s canada. San mo kukunin un s pinas?
imagine everyone becoming an entrepreneur, then who will the workers be lol
@@Rrjj00ypero ang gastos sa Canada imagine ang rent dun at panggastos mo ay Canadian dollars din
@@Rrjj00y 15 dollars nga pero yung cost of living din dyan malaki. yung pumunta family ng friend ko sa US, gulat daw sila na yung mga tao puro maliliit na bag yung bitbit bitbit sa grocery habang sila na galing sa Pinas naka cart. Kaya kagabi napagusapan namin yung pag aabroad ang sabi nila mahirap pa din ang buhay sa US unless negosyante ka doon. Mas yayaman ka dito sa pinas kung mag nenegosyo ka. Dami naming kamag anak sa US na hindi makauwi uwi dahil daming utang.
The only thing that's alarming is that more aren't leaving.
I work with many immigrants and yes most want to leave Canada due to high housing costs. When someone wants to move back to an impoverished country, it says lots.
The system is messed up when every House, Condo is a Luxury unity, with a Luxury cost!
This isn’t uniique to canada hon
@@perle13930 Your soo right! I hear New York is way worse than Canada.
@@mrdan2898 New York has relatively affordable housing in the outer boroughs, and their subway system has a big enough network to make it a sensible commute
Mass immigration is one of the main causes of rising rents and
house prices !! And over supply of
workers depresses wages !!
Immigration is NOT a boost to the economy ! In the long term it's
a disaster !!
I like how they confiscate money from truckers Bank accounts whenever they want bc they don't consider people have right to own anything
