      heya, I've watched your last video on why people don't stay in Canada. Now I feel from the two videos, I see we are better off staying where we are from in New Zealand. we don't get racism or hate crimes which is higher for our orientation and inter-race relationship compared what we might get in Canada from what has been said. Even financially we don't have to do our tax its taken automatically, we get to see drs when ever we want or need even telephone consults and fast medical. so I don't know. NZ seems like a better hahah but we love Canadians.

    As a Canadian, born and raised, it's fascinating to see the outside perspective from people. It's beautiful how you can see so many cultures, languages, food and values come together in Canada. However, one draw back I have noticed is that there is a tendency to stick within cultural social groups/enclaves and refrain from socializing outward. It's unfortunate because it is more difficult to learn about and understand people. I personally love learning about other cultures and values, and enjoy interacting with new comers. My hope for new comers is that they over come any feelings with being shy and try to have an interest to learn about unfamiliar people and cultures as well.

      However, as you unwittingly po9int out, because of Canadian TOLERANCE, the separate enclaves get along quite well--at the same time sharing their cultural heritage--trademark culinary dishes, clothing flare, and the sound on the street, in stores, nightspots, and in quiet, civilized lines (qeueues) for benefits and documents. Vive la diférence en paz!

      @@TalentedDilittante Canadian Tolerance, very important point to mention. It is remarkable how so much diversity can cohabitate so well. The point you latter mentioned, I agree however not to the idealistic extent that you seem to portray. It is human nature to stick to a comfort zone such as isolating to an enclave, which isn't speaking for all but as a tendency. That's why I am encouraging new comers to make the bold step to socialize beyond those comfort zones.

      Because Canada's propaganda wants you to believe what they offer. In the 60s 70's 80's Canada was never like it is now. All the shootings in the outskirts of Toronto.
      If the RCMP are so friendly why do they hate to hear the truth of all the corruption in govt. wow while I'm writing i'm listening there's so much that is untrue.

      @@toring61_52 it’s all about perspective. If you compare corruption to some third world countries, Canada is jokes. I totally get that for someone who had the privilege to be born and live in a first world country, what you see in Canada might be harsh, however, for some it’s a huge upgrade from what they had experience in their own country.

    From a practical standpoint, Canada's proximity to US and the friendly relations between the two countries opens up a lot more opportunities on both sides of the border. That is an important factor for me to live in Canada. You get the safety and calmness of Canada and the work opportunities with the southern neighbor. :)

    Education eats a lot of tax dollars. :) I am Canadian born, have another passport, love to move around, but Canada will always be my home. If I never touch the soil again what I have gained from friendly education, opportunities to enjoy the "real" part of the planet - nature and other animals ... is a joy of life. A bonus is being able to study, work and live among people from many parts of the world who bring a wealth from their backgrounds that helps one to stay open-minded, and curious about other parts of the world. You are the kind of immigrants every country dreams of having. Nice to find your videos. Ciao!
    For those people who move because they are lonely ... reach out to people you work with. Ask someone if they want to have coffee one day. Canadians are usually up for a coffee and a chance to chat. Check out those Meet up groups and go hiking, or ... We don't bite! ... not often anyway. :)

    The issue with Vancouver (and Canada) is this:
    1.it has become so much expensive while the salaries are so-so
    2. More and more people are becoming like robots
    3. Talking to strangers is not normal!!! For me coming from Europe (Belgium), this is very strange!!!!
    4. Public transport suck!!!! (It is only good enough for people who have never left Canada)
    5. The healthcare service is better than the US but is a disaster when compared to Europe… and even to some African countries (I have worked in west Africa for the French goblin the past and believe me…. There u can have access to doctors on the spot.. no wait, no stupid triage systems!!)
    6. If you have a kid with a special need (like a daughter of my colleague at work), a city like vanguard just 2 or ..3. Schools for special need children!!! My colleague told me both of those schools love money and quality services are far from their priority!!! But yes, Vancouver, a big city has just 2’of them!!’ How stupid is that!
    7. Girls are interested for most of them!
    8. People have been raised to get INDEBTED and they are taught to spend, SPEND and Spend!!! The whole North American system is based on debt and banks get rich out of people being in debt!!! I am such in a hurry to fly back to Europe!!!

    I agree, there are lots of things to be thankful and enjoy in Canada, and many people just forget that there was a good reason to come here. Getting involved in public life and politics more is necessary for Canadians to safeguard what Canada can offer! Sadly, there are those who are not really fit to take office, and are misusing the system, the current government is not really the best and Canada deserves a better one, but it is up to Canadians to pay more attention and improve public life too!

Police can be friendly, you can protest and critisize the government without going to jail, people are welcoming and open minded, and I can even marry a woman if I want to! That's already SO much more than I could expect from living in my home country. I understand that there are still a lot of things to work on and many people have reasons to be unhappy in Canada probably.

    The Brazilian passport allows you to travel in most countries, actually. i've been living in canada for 16 years. It is a good country, but I miss my original culture very much. Perhaps because people from different places do not mingle enough to create a Canadian culture as a whole.

    Safety is not something people consciously think of but it is so apparent for people in developing countries. Even traveling with a valid visa still gets you in a lot of trouble with a second-class passport.
    No country is perfect but despite the little things, I think Canada is definitely one of the best places in the world you can always trust to come back to.

    On invitation to teach at a Canadian university, I escaped from socially prejudiced, negative-minded and religiously Puritanical American society and police state, to feeling freedom and peace in Canada. The USA was "the land of the free" in the 1950s, but no longer. In contrast, Canada has remained on the path to defining a better life for its citizens, immigrants and visitors. I love seeing the posters proclaiming the Canadian government's only mandate: "No form of aggressive behavior will be tolerated," ubiquitously displayed--in subways, public buildings, buses and schools.

    Canada is an acquired taste, it suits families better than it suits single persons. If you like North American culture you will like Canada. Canadian politeness is obvious but overall very disingenuous, and this is because people prefer to keep appearances and peace, a behavioral relic of their British heritage. In that respect Canadians are closer to the British than to Americans while the consumerist culture is very obviously something that they share with the US.
    Canadians like the idea of diversity but not necessarily the reality of it. They accept it but not necessarily approve of it.
    It is a rough place but it has its perks, just like every place on Earth, one’s experience will depend on expectations and likes or dislikes.
    For those who hope to hold double citizenship Canada is indeed a viable option.

      @@MakeThatChange I enjoyed the comment from Mid-Century Modern. Firstly I love their handle and secondly how it correlates with their views of Canada. Obviously Canada comprises many views, young versus old, male versus female, educated versus uneducated. Now while I use the word 'versus' most Canadians do not see their opinions as a battle ground to defend but rather a position to be blended with others ... this is what makes us strong. For example the U.S. describes itself as a 'melting pot' which means to me that everyone's opinions must be melted down to just one. This is very wrong in my opinion. In comparison Canada describes itself as a 'mosaic' which means opinions are heard and blended into one common direction. It listens to all in making decisions as opposed to forcing one on all. A huge difference.

    I came here from the UK 22 years ago. I left my home because I did not want to be part of the EU but now the UK has left the EU I would now go back.... Getting established here was not easy & it still has challenges, mostly related to a lack of recognition for foreign qualifications & the obstacles put in the way that prevent very experienced people like me from obtaining trade licenses which are administered by the lefty unions here. Canadian people & those who came here are polite, friendly & helpful. Employment & the conditions of employment has to evolve & the vacation entitlement here is really bad. There are terrible inequalities between union & non union jobs which get the crap end of the stick every time.
    I love this country, despite the various shortcomings. I met my Brit wife here & we own a primary home plus a leisure property (cottage) on 10 acres....I would never have been able to do that in the UK. The biggest positive change here would be if we could get rid of the bad habit of voting in Liberal governments...

    I have social anxiety and overall I'm pretty outgoing but I feel more calm among the stillness of Canada, I think I have pshycogenic neurological issues and in the US my insurance doesn't seem to cover this type of evaluation, I'm sick of people telling me how to act out that is my fault, meds don't seem to do much I have stomach ulcers and they just keep suggesting maybe it will get better one day. It's expensive like 2000 bucks or something for a neuropshych evaluation and the social worker I saw recommended a place but I still needed a medical referral so I also had to see my doctor who I sometimes find a little condescending and skeptical towards my symptoms but then I got frustrated and decided to switch my insurance company this year, I paid the first month twice, had to sign a bunch of stuff, and still didn't get my insurance active until I called and got the refund for paying twice. I'm an Uber Driver and they won't pay for my health care or education and if they did I probably wouldn't have a job at all because of the legal system. If my stomach acts up at a drinking establishment I'll get thrown out and the mayor of Roseville won't allow the Brewstillery to serve their craft THC Seltzer in my hometown. Sometimes I feel so reviled and isolated because of the covid-19 pandemic, it's a different type of alone when your alone in a beautiful land that you love and is not your hometown, of course you would be alone if you weren't at home but it's more of a relaxing than a stressful feeling you know what I mean? I grew up visiting Rainy Lake in Ontario, I could be a part of the Tiny House movement and have so much less stress compared to my home in Roseville and have more time for cooking and going out to events😁 I'm only a single person.

We are heavily indebted and sinking fast, our political condition is becoming more and more divergent - not as violently so as other countries, but far more than it ever has been here in the past, entire provinces are talking about leaving, that said, you do certainly make a point that there is still much that is good and if we get our financial act together we may be able to maintain it. Well done in that regard.

    I disagree in some areas with regards to education. While post secondary is cheaper in many instances, and its quality is considered high, how far it takes you is often far from expectations. It is in my experience and in the experience of my friends extremely hard to find jobs relating to your schooling without references. It doesn’t matter how good your grades were in culinary school you will be a dishwasher for 2 years before they consider you for a receptionist role. But I want to be a cook you might say, well I’ve never made it that far so I don’t know what to tell you. If you can’t tell I do not like the Canadian education system, mostly because it hasn’t helped at all for me and many others.
