Excellent video! It's clear that you've put a lot of effort in searching for facts and presenting the figures, as accurately as possible. I would have to add a few points on living expenses and the healthcare. Here comes a very long two cents given by someone who's lived in 5 different countries: Re living expenses, first point, the $1,542 is for someone who has to lead an extremely frugal lifestyle and keep any soul replenishing activity (sports, gym, entertainment, social life, etc.) at zero or minimum. You literally have to spend money when you step outside your door (walk or drive), at least in major cities like Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, Ottawa, Calgary (steeply increasing), etc. Unless you are simply going for a walk, window shop, and enjoy watching icicles and the slushy snow, or watch people wine and dine at restaurants/bars. Second point, 2:12 most of these prices are for the lowest quality fruits and food products (high in preservatives, antibiotics, hormones, etc.), and only available in large discount stores, where you often need to drive to or have someone give you a lift (so add in your transportation cost). But if you want to maintain a relatively healthy diet and avoid preservatives and unhealthy food (something that you can do at no extra cost in East and West Asia, Europe, and South America), these types of expenses will be dramatically higher. Third point, it becomes super annoying to cough up such high prices, particularly for local products, when you know the same products on the south side of the border is at least 3 times cheaper (for instance, Ontario produced carrots cost you $3 in Ontario, whereas the same package costs you $0.80 in New York). It feels like you are folding your hard-earned cash and sliding it into the pockets of the CEOs of the retail oligopolies in Canada. To me, nothing justifies such steep price manipulations. But again, to each their own, you might enjoy doing that 🙂 Re healthcare, first point, as she correctly informs you at 12:24, you pay for it through your taxes. The second point is that, you pay for something that you rarely get to use. An example: my friend, who earns a very good income (which means she has to generously contribute to the healthcare via her taxes), and lives in Vancouver, faced a health issue 2.5 years ago. After hopping through several hoops for three months, she was informed that she had to see a specialist, so she was placed on a waiting list, while her condition was worsening. So she ended up travelling to her home country in West Asia to see a specialist, and get a surgery to prevent further damage to her health. The surgery could have been avoided if she was attended to within the first 5 months. You wanna know the punchline? She's still on that waiting list (as of last week) 😄 Last point, because of the crazy economy, most businesses constantly try to rip you off. Ranging from grocery stores to service sector businesses. If you're lucky, it would mostly cost you a chunk of time that could be otherwise dedicated to learning or earning. If it's something more serious, like identity theft, banking product scams, real estate related scams (both sales and rentals) etc., it would cost you legal fees in addition to time and a ton of mental energy. Sometimes, it feels like you're operating in an economy, filled with white-collar pickpockets. IMHO, if you have tons of capital and wanna start a business, and have sufficient funds to take care of your health and wellbeing, yes, the Great White North could be a reasonable option. As you can test your business ideas by paying far less wages for skilled labor (compared with the US). But if you are a skilled labor, looking for a better lifestyle, I wouldn't necessarily recommend Canada.
An interesting take! I agree that most statistics on cost only cover the average, basic quality of food. We are quite picky with groceries and try to buy organic as much as possible, and yes, it is crazy expensive if you think about it.
if you are a tradesperson specializing in renovation / plumbing etc, then absolutely move to Canada, there is a shortage of them here and they pretty much set their own prices. as for organic food being at no extra cost lol, i dont know where you are getting this brother, but chemicals are ubiquitous, there is no magical place on the planet where food can be grown organically without an increase in prices. The % of organic land in china is something like below 1% of arable land, the rest non-organic which means chemicals. Your point about prices in the US vs Canada thoug is undeniable. Bad trade deals coupled with farmer protections and corporate greed have caused this. We ship to the Americans for cheap, and we gouge our own citizens.
I work with Citizenship Immigration Canada amd can tell you most Immigration to Canada is from the country of India under the Study Permit Visa...BUT.... the vast majority are not studying... instead they are working for CASH under the table and paying very little into the Canadian tax and social system... however they get to utilize the Healthcare and Social System that they do not pay in to.
I live in Australia, it’s the same issues here, just replace cold with heat! Cost of living is ramping up and the biggest issue is the price of houses. At the current rate, my kids will never be able to own a home. I’m a teacher and my wife is a registered nurse, I’m keen to move to Canada just for the weather change. I’m from the UK originally, been in Australia since 1998. It’s hard to know what to do, thanks for your insight from a migrants perspective.
Interesting! Yes, Canada is expensive, especially the big cities, but it's true like you said that that's the case in most major metropolitans around the world. Interesting too that you mentioned the weather. I moved here from Indonesia, among others for the simple reason that I couldn't stand the hot and humid weather. Canada is cold, but it's bearable with the right clothing!
If you're coming here for "living the life" then don't. If you're here to funnel your money into your home (assuming it's low cost living compared to Canada) then do.
Finally writing a comment on your videos here in Canada (Vancouver). I had zero trouble finding a place, opening a bank account, getting a SIN and now I'm in the job part. There are A LOT of resources both public and private to find job but I'm still struggling in finding the one that works for me(open to anyhting honestly) hope to manage to find one soon. And I'm glad I came no (zero regrets honestly), plus seems the upcoming changes to migration will make it harder in the future.
I was born in Quebec. I'm 60 now and listening to your perspective, I'm impressed by your review. It' s fair and quite accurate. Ontario is brutal to live in. I would suggest to your followers to do like my kids and find a job in Ontario that lets you work from home and move to the smaller cities or better even to the province of Quebec. Some cities there are English or at least bilingual. Good luck all!
I spent 2 years studying french from 0 just to be able to get enough points to pass via express entry. Still need to re-take the french exam as the requirements for the language are high and I lack 1 point in TCF certificate to show the good command in french (that would give me a lot of extra points in EE system). And that's after spending 5-6 hours studying daily. The decision to study french to move to Canada was taken 3,5 years ago. Now I see a lot of changes in Canada that I do not like at all and I realize that at this specific moment in my life I would get a lower pay after taxes (if find any job at all) with x2-3 higher prices. And it makes me regret a bit that I wasted so much time preparing for moving to Canada instead of enjoying my life. I just feel like that Canada is not worth it anymore (passing the exams in both english and french, evaluating all the diplomas, preparing letters from previous employers), so I gave up on that idea for a while and just living the moment in another country that I actually got to love. But I still keep an eye on the situation in Canada as it's always good to have a plan b in case if anything goes wrong where I live now.
Don't move to a different country without a good job offer already in hand. Don't daydream about what carrier you can have there and then leave what you are doing in your own country.
I also wouldn't advise daydreaming. But if one correctly assesses their capabilities and their grit to fight through all the challenges, you can 'make it' here.
Canadian residents often go to Seattle/Detroit/Buffalo for medical services. When time is of essence. ( IE: fast spreading cancer) Also like the (EU) age limits on certain medical procedures.
Hi everyone. Please assist me! Where do I need to go to get a printed study permit? If I am already in Toronto with an open work permit and has obtained a passport from Ottawa with a study visa. Where can I get the document itself? Usually it is issued upon crossing the border, but if I’m already in Canada, where can I get this document?
The problem with Canada is that it taxes its residents like a European country with none of the public infrastructure or quality of healthcare, schooling and socioeconomic equality that Europeans cherish. For educated professionals, the salaries are laughable in Canada compared to the US, Switzerland and most major developed OECD economies.
plzz fix ur audio. left ear has more audio volume than right ear. i watched your last 2 years vids and the issue still remains today. and yes i checked and confirmed with my mates. my headphones completely fine.
I didn't notice it at first, but when I looked closer into it and listened from one side at a time, I noticed a slight difference between left and right. Then looked into the working file and saw a bit difference in the left and right level. Subtle, but it's there.
hello i am 24 male and i am coming soon i dont mind starting from scratch .... are there any restaurants jobs avilable please any advice r tips will help@LivinginCanada
I have visited Jakarta several times on business. For me, Jakarta is still a third world city. A chaotic electricity pole. Narrow streets and alleys. Garbage in many places. The stench of the river for kilometers. In fact, 50% of Jakarta's residents are proud and comfortable breathing their own urine and faeces in the garbage dump because there is no organized cesspool system. Causes of chronic food poisoning.
I have not lived in Germany for a very long time. But I have a very soft spot for Germany, so I would seriously consider staying in Germany if I were you, unless you have good reasons not too.

I'm Canadian citizen, I'm currently living in other country, I forget everything about Canada. I'm planning to surrender my driver license in my country, and I'm planning not use driver license again in my whole life, because I'm bad at driving and I had car accident. Do you think living Canada without driver license is ok? Not have any problems for buying house or bank or apply any government site applications like RRSP or anything? What kind of transportation I can use in Canada other than car? Especially when I get old, what I can use? Also I forget how to login government site or anything, if one day I go back Canada I can make new ID password again right? Since I'm living other country, I not pay any tax in Canada is ok right? I dont want apply any credit card, is it ok not have credit card in Canada too? I hope you can sincerely answer my questions, im waiting reply.
I don't have a drivers license in Canada and had no issues buying a house, it's also not needed to open an RRSP etc. If you live in Toronto, the public transportation is quite good, I don't drive here. If you plan to travel outside the city a lot, then a car is recommended, as the network is.a bit patchy. About taxes, I'm not a tax advisor or financial consultant-but you need to pay taxes in Canada if you're considered resident.
@@LivinginCanada Thank you very much for reply. I've left Canada for about 15 years more, if need to apply RRSP or any government online services maybe register new? I forget ID password everything. Also credit card is needed or not if living in Canada? If not work not have income, is hard get I guess? Or if can shows bank have some savings is ok? I really don't want apply, I don't know need or not.
Keep in mind, in terms of salary range, the mid to high side of those bands are very unlikely. Canada doesn't put much weight on foreign experience, so you're lucky getting in at the bottom of the salary range.
It really depends on how you develop your career here. Yes, foreign experience may not always be valued, but once you're here you can gather new skills and experience-you'll have that 'Canadian' experience then after a while and can compete with the rest.
Hey! I am in Ukraine. Currently i can not leave the country because of human rights violation (borders are closed). But after the war i think about emigrate. Thankful for the information
I heard Canada 🇨🇦 is so clean! What other country uses both English and French? Canada 🇨🇦 were royal 🫅 colonies of England 🏴 and France 🇫🇷 long time ago.
BTW I am in Vancouver for the 1st time for 10 days, and it is true that it depends on what you like. So for me, I find everything better here in Vancouver vs. Toronto... People talk about the price; but if you take into account value for money; I find Vancouver better. Toronto got so expensive and totally overrated, to me it is not worth it; but maybe Vancouver still is ...
I haven't had the chance to visit Vancouver actually, so it's interesting to hear that the value-to-money ratio is better. Which aspect of Vancouver specifically do you think makes Vancouver more worth living in compared to Toronto?
@@LivinginCanada The nature all around: montains, sea, ... nice for an escape but also you have epic views with character all around the city (Toronto/Ontario is just flat; and a lake is not the sea). Better architecture, better urbanism, more human and walkable city center... The real eastate is not that more expensive but it makes sense as space is limited by the environment (vs. Toronto space is limited by zoning laws). Restaurant and groceries are cheaper in Vancouver: I had to check my restaurant bills twice at a place as I was expecting to pay double of what I paid (being used to Toronto). So, really, overall, prices in Vancouver seem justified to me; Toronto is just over-priced and over-rated :)
@@LivinginCanada BTW little money trick for you... I flew with Flair airlines and paid very little (taking no option, no baggage but a very small backpack). I just bought what I needed there, and shipped what I bought via Canada post for $32 (vs. $150 flair would have asked for just a carry on ;) )
Before sending a bigger sum to me in the U.S, Ive been trying a test where my relative tries to effect an online payment of a small amount via BMO to my Canadian dollar Wise account. So far, it has not worked and Wise has not been very helpful in finding why it’s not happening, insisting on my producing a proof of payment from BMO, showing all the bank details - both sender and receiver on a single document. Interestingly, it’s not simple to get all this info on a single document. Interac does not appear to be an option for me either, in spite of what it says on Wise’s site. Anybody have experience?
Until 2020 (pandemic), most Canadians would have proudly & quickly said Canada is a great place. For multiple generations (young & old). It still is in many ways. But like all countries, a bunch of things have made life more difficult lately. During the Covid lockdowns, many people in apartments (or major cities) went nuts wanting to buy homes everywhere (urban & rural). Increasing demand and rising prices. Not long after, inflation caused mortgage rates especially to rise. Rent costs have soared too. People interested in working in hospitals declined. Less doctors etc.. Simultaneously in Cda, the number of people coming by air, land and boat to claim asylum SKYROCKETED. For example, in 2023 alone, in just one region (Ontario) around 275 people arrived per day (on average). Ditto for other populated provinces. Also the number of international students skyrocketed too. Averaging around 1,096 per day in 2023 alone. Hospitals then hit with many wanting free healthcare. Less drs/nurses etc., means greater waiting times. A severe housing crisis has occurred in many western countries including in Canada. In ways not seen in people's lifetimes. Almost all humans trying to migrate to Canada have been from South Asia. And it's become extremely obvious to Canadians. Even those that are very used to much diversity & many cultures. Unfortunately not all players have acted honestly over the years. False asylum claims. Foreign 'agents' deceiving students for $. Plus some Canadians, some with ties overseas, became greedy and started doing things to make $ off of people's desperation. Then this year throw in all the Palestinian vs Israeli angry protests happening regularly in cities. Plus the Sikh vs Hindu violence/extortion happening in Ontario and BC . All stemming from affairs overseas. Hate crimes. Canadians are not used to all this. So many, who have embraced multi-culturalism and immigration for decades are now worried and fearful (due to all of the above). And all are praying it doesn't turn into great anger (like in the USA). We want multi-culturism to succeed ... and for all people to be okay. Everyone I know is HAPPY with Canada Immigration's recent changes.
Healthcare is virtually non existent unless a patient can wait (6-9-12) months to visit with a health care provider. 😳. Cancer issues in most cases can't wait that long
As a Canadian Citizen who is witnessing everyone from immigrants to Canadians struggle to find affordable housing and rely on food banks. DON’T MOVE HERE. There are better options.
As an Immigrant-Canadian living in Toronto, all the information shared in the video is 100% accurate!
Great to hear this resonated with you!
Yes, I'd say it's pretty easy to get an F&B job if you're not very picky
Excellent video! It's clear that you've put a lot of effort in searching for facts and presenting the figures, as accurately as possible. I would have to add a few points on living expenses and the healthcare. Here comes a very long two cents given by someone who's lived in 5 different countries:
Re living expenses, first point, the $1,542 is for someone who has to lead an extremely frugal lifestyle and keep any soul replenishing activity (sports, gym, entertainment, social life, etc.) at zero or minimum. You literally have to spend money when you step outside your door (walk or drive), at least in major cities like Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, Ottawa, Calgary (steeply increasing), etc. Unless you are simply going for a walk, window shop, and enjoy watching icicles and the slushy snow, or watch people wine and dine at restaurants/bars. Second point, 2:12 most of these prices are for the lowest quality fruits and food products (high in preservatives, antibiotics, hormones, etc.), and only available in large discount stores, where you often need to drive to or have someone give you a lift (so add in your transportation cost). But if you want to maintain a relatively healthy diet and avoid preservatives and unhealthy food (something that you can do at no extra cost in East and West Asia, Europe, and South America), these types of expenses will be dramatically higher. Third point, it becomes super annoying to cough up such high prices, particularly for local products, when you know the same products on the south side of the border is at least 3 times cheaper (for instance, Ontario produced carrots cost you $3 in Ontario, whereas the same package costs you $0.80 in New York). It feels like you are folding your hard-earned cash and sliding it into the pockets of the CEOs of the retail oligopolies in Canada. To me, nothing justifies such steep price manipulations. But again, to each their own, you might enjoy doing that 🙂

It really depends on how you develop your career here. Yes, foreign experience may not always be valued, but once you're here you can gather new skills and experience-you'll have that 'Canadian' experience then after a while and can compete with the rest.
Hey! I am in Ukraine. Currently i can not leave the country because of human rights violation (borders are closed). But after the war i think about emigrate. Thankful for the information
🇨🇦 Canada is beautiful
It is!
I heard Canada 🇨🇦 is so clean! What other country uses both English and French? Canada 🇨🇦 were royal 🫅 colonies of England 🏴 and France 🇫🇷 long time ago.
BTW I am in Vancouver for the 1st time for 10 days, and it is true that it depends on what you like. So for me, I find everything better here in Vancouver vs. Toronto... People talk about the price; but if you take into account value for money; I find Vancouver better.
Toronto got so expensive and totally overrated, to me it is not worth it; but maybe Vancouver still is ...
I haven't had the chance to visit Vancouver actually, so it's interesting to hear that the value-to-money ratio is better. Which aspect of Vancouver specifically do you think makes Vancouver more worth living in compared to Toronto?
@@LivinginCanada The nature all around: montains, sea, ... nice for an escape but also you have epic views with character all around the city (Toronto/Ontario is just flat; and a lake is not the sea). Better architecture, better urbanism, more human and walkable city center... The real eastate is not that more expensive but it makes sense as space is limited by the environment (vs. Toronto space is limited by zoning laws). Restaurant and groceries are cheaper in Vancouver: I had to check my restaurant bills twice at a place as I was expecting to pay double of what I paid (being used to Toronto). So, really, overall, prices in Vancouver seem justified to me; Toronto is just over-priced and over-rated :)
@@LivinginCanada BTW little money trick for you... I flew with Flair airlines and paid very little (taking no option, no baggage but a very small backpack). I just bought what I needed there, and shipped what I bought via Canada post for $32 (vs. $150 flair would have asked for just a carry on ;) )
Before sending a bigger sum to me in the U.S, Ive been trying a test where my relative tries to effect an online payment of a small amount via BMO to my Canadian dollar Wise account. So far, it has not worked and Wise has not been very helpful in finding why it’s not happening, insisting on my producing a proof of payment from BMO, showing all the bank details - both sender and receiver on a single document. Interestingly, it’s not simple to get all this info on a single document. Interac does not appear to be an option for me either, in spite of what it says on Wise’s site. Anybody have experience?
Don’t do it! I have PR and regret it. I should’ve stayed in Europe. Canada has high taxes and sub standard healthcare.
Which country in Europe are you from?

@mstt3530 hey brother u still in Canada if u are they any restaurants jobs available?
They don't pay much@@Gloryboyquan
@cashway0420 yes bro I'm aware of all the challenges with working such Job.. U In Canada ??
Until 2020 (pandemic), most Canadians would have proudly & quickly said Canada is a great place. For multiple generations (young & old). It still is in many ways. But like all countries, a bunch of things have made life more difficult lately.
During the Covid lockdowns, many people in apartments (or major cities) went nuts wanting to buy homes everywhere (urban & rural). Increasing demand and rising prices. Not long after, inflation caused mortgage rates especially to rise. Rent costs have soared too.
People interested in working in hospitals declined. Less doctors etc..
Simultaneously in Cda, the number of people coming by air, land and boat to claim asylum SKYROCKETED. For example, in 2023 alone, in just one region (Ontario) around 275 people arrived per day (on average). Ditto for other populated provinces. Also the number of international students skyrocketed too. Averaging around 1,096 per day in 2023 alone.
Hospitals then hit with many wanting free healthcare. Less drs/nurses etc., means greater waiting times.
A severe housing crisis has occurred in many western countries including in Canada. In ways not seen in people's lifetimes.
Almost all humans trying to migrate to Canada have been from South Asia. And it's become extremely obvious to Canadians. Even those that are very used to much diversity & many cultures.
Unfortunately not all players have acted honestly over the years. False asylum claims. Foreign 'agents' deceiving students for $. Plus some Canadians, some with ties overseas, became greedy and started doing things to make $ off of people's desperation.
Then this year throw in all the Palestinian vs Israeli angry protests happening regularly in cities. Plus the Sikh vs Hindu violence/extortion happening in Ontario and BC . All stemming from affairs overseas. Hate crimes.
Canadians are not used to all this. So many, who have embraced multi-culturalism and immigration for decades are now worried and fearful (due to all of the above). And all are praying it doesn't turn into great anger (like in the USA). We want multi-culturism to succeed ... and for all people to be okay. Everyone I know is HAPPY with Canada Immigration's recent changes.
Unchecked immigration policies are indeed a problem.
Gosh, all of this, well said 😢
Marxist Trudeau & surrogates😈 welcomed those economic free loaders Puedo asylum seekers.
Unfortunately the health care is big issue
Healthcare is virtually non existent unless a patient can wait (6-9-12) months to visit with a health care provider. 😳. Cancer issues in most cases can't wait that long
I have lived my whole life in Canada. I have no idea why anyone would want to move to Toronto.
They're misguided or puedo asylum seekers receiving ecnomic free lunches.
Australia is better than Canada, USA and UK.
The job market in Australia is better too.
Thanks for the update-!!!😉
you should remove "2024" from the title. its always the same topic. the same "news"
And also change that profile picture of yours😏
Well that's the channel is about- living in canada
👍
Thanks!
@@LivinginCanadahello are any restaurants jobs available please help
Short answer, NO!
@livingincanada we decided to stay in UK, as Canada is becoming a shit... so sad
Who's to blame-???🤔Trudeau & surrogates😈
No you should not move to Canada for at least the next five years. If it were up to the people we would be closed.
Your sources, from National Post/Lilley to Nomad Capitalist are all right wing. Nomad is very down on Canada and not balanced in any way
As a Canadian Citizen who is witnessing everyone from immigrants to Canadians struggle to find affordable housing and rely on food banks. DON’T MOVE HERE. There are better options.
Thanks for advice & update-!!!😉
If you wanted to move to an English speaking country then living in a beautiful English county is a much better choice than rip off, woke Canada.
Thanks for advice & update-!!!😉
MOVE TO CANADA YOU MUST OUT OF YOUR MIND, YOU HAVE WAIT FOR 6 MONTHS TO GET ENTRY VISA. SHAME OF YOU.
