I love how people think Canada is affordable. Depends where you call home. Totally avoid the Maritime provinces, you’d become barren pretty quick. The taxes will eat almost everything up. Best of luck hope things work out. Most of us Canadians are ready to jump ship from all the corruption. They’ll let anyone in now so I wouldn’t worry too much.
Excellent video, I wish I had done a few of those recommendations when I moved to Canada. I did a few of them years later when I moved in (like Joining a soccer team, Facebook groups, etc). And please do not ignore the prairies lol, I know that we are in the middle of nowhere but moving to Saskatchewan or Manitoba is a good option too. It is cheaper right now despite the weather here being more extreme. Good video!!!
thank you! The Prairies are so undervalued.
@@MakeThatChangeas are the Maritimes, IMHO. Although Halifax has begun to creep up there. As always, location, location, location.
Thank you sooo much for all your information
It took me over a year to find a job in Canada. I contacted more than 300 companies and burned a lot of savings. My field is not hot like tech or healthcare. I got my job thru LinkedIn, and I was actually referred by an American, and the Canadians got interested 😂 It was tough.
Glad to hear you finally made it through 🙌
all your info is being blended into my checklist. thank you for all your effort in your videos.
Glad you like them!
Very accurate, a lot of value is available in your videos.
Glad you like them!
Cleaning snow, start to driving taxi for livings,lined up longe hours for medical help,cold weather flues .8 months cold weather, if you buy home keep paying mortgage until death.
Do you recommend moving to news Brunswick?
I’m moving today hahahaha
Thanks for uploading. Love you
You got your visa in how long?
Best of luck! Everything will be fine 🍀
3 days ago it was my first year in Canada. Everything will be fine. Have faith and work hard. Good luck
where did u move from what country @@johnnydragovic6892
Hi Anna & Anastasia, I am an HR professional (training and development) and I am bilingual. As a family we are keen to avoid Toronto, which cities do you suggest?
Wonderful Video, Since i came across your channel it has been like a warn light among the other channels. I plan on moving to manitoba late august- Early September. I'm aware of the heavy winter. But pls can you do a video on manitoba especially winnipeg.
Thank you for the wonderful video and keep up the good Job.
thank you for the kind words! Make sure to check out this video about Winnipeg and good luck! more videos to come. czcams.com/video/2EXfCTwIysc/video.htmlsi=cnEk_mrI3No-pftJ
Ahah! The first 22 seconds were extremely motivating! Should I cancel my visa?
please watch the rest of the video before making this decision!
Depends where you're coming from. If you are in danger, from a politically unstable country, etc. then maybe it is still worth it.
I knew people in Canada and shared some moments with them but always was missing something... For example in my country origin at the office with my colleagues we used to play soccer once a week and share some wonderful moments... in Canada people at the office were like nerds didn't practice sports... also when there were celebrations and there were opportunities to toast and drink a beer... I found most people don't drink alcohol... which is good... but just for a toast ??? not even that??? boooring!!!! also when I was invited to some parties the invitation said: start hour: 6pm end hour: 10 pm... WTF??? and worse, there weren't music on the party it was just a moment to chat with people which I can do on any moment but on a party is for dancing and celebrate.... so I felt always the people just like acquaintances not like real friends ...
It's unlikely that people can make real friends in the workplace in Canada. People here are nice, but friendship is something that is not in the DNA of those living in capitalistic dog-eat-dog countries, such as Canada.
Great video, girls! I'm also a huuuuge MJ fan!!
Try meetup app or Facebook groups, I think there are book clubs. And also visit Toronto library to ask about book clubs.
Im also from Whitby. Is it possible to have coffee and coaching from you guys? IT guys and friendly 😊
Send us an email!
For Christ sakes! Everything was on point till you mention not to travel in August and the low recommendations on moving to Calgary, both things that I’m doing for personal reasons. But I get it, nothing is perfect, either way it was always going to be challenging.
Such is life! 🇲🇽
Calgary is still better than Vancouver or Toronto though! As for August travel - consider doing Airbnb until October if you want to get the best lease price!
@@MakeThatChange on that particular case I applied for a homestay, which with the whole housing crisis is at least an affordable option.
And also, thanks for taking the time for providing us with your advices and information.
Moved to Ottawa from Brockton, Massachusetts, in November 2009. I was born in Haiti. Canada was nicer in the 1990s when l was a kid.
So was the US
FOHHH IM MOVING IDGAF🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦👍🛬🛬🤷♂️
😂😂😂😂 bruh 😎
Although it goes without saying, be wary of social media connections. Canada has more than its fair share of nefarious actors as well. It’s not all rainbows and unicorns.
100% thank you for the reminder.
grest video, always, thanks
Please do a video about Digital Nomaid, as there are not enough information on the net or on the canadian websites.
I am a Front End Engineer, working for a FinTech Company, and we work with clients such as BMO canada.
I work remotely, so there is no stress to find another job. My only worry is that How can I still be able to LEGALLY do my remote work ( for an International company ) within Canada ?
Thanks
Thanks for the idea!
Hi girl good
Hi girls
I was wondering which city would be good to start for a bilingual civil engineer?
I'm actually registered as engineer-in-training in british columbia but I really chose it just because of the weather
Bilingualism would probably work best in Quebec, New Brunswick and partially Ontario. In Quebec your bilingualism will be considered a must, while in the other two provinces - an extra asset. If you decide to relocate, you’d need to register with the specific provinces you engineering body. Overall Quebec and Ontario has the most construction projects in Canada.
Canada uses Newcomers to pay pensions of old Europeans through tax
Yup, while newcomers use Canada to build a better life.
@@MakeThatChangebasically, it's a win win
I’m leaving Canada soon FS
I think like many countries, most of us have a love hate relationship where ever we live. I live in Victoria, BC, born in BC, grew up on the island. I like the mild weather and beautiful outdoors. The cost of living has always been insanely too high but never like today. Worst thing in Canada is the cost of living, high taxes, horrible medical and justice system and politicians that have ruined everything. Plenty other negatives too…racism, bigotry, a country in denial, not so long ago history of genocide against numerous groups of our Indigenous, bad transit, minimum wage doesn’t even help the poor, drug addiction is everywhere seen and hidden, politicians make laws that are rarely upheld by the justice system so they change laws for criminals/druggies to be more criminal then realize their mistakes far too late after people are attacked, hurt, maimed, killed and a lot of businesses shut down with many more lost jobs, and homes are constantly broken into. Illicit drug makers and dealers run a large portion of this country and the politicians won’t do a thing because of the costs. They’ll lie and have the media say they’re making changes when they don’t have the resources anymore in police departments to do hardly anything. The cold dark rainy winters don’t help anyone’s struggles. Mental health problems are rising just as fast as homelessness and addictions. Canada is a very corrupt country struggling. I don’t recommend moving here.
Thanks for sharing this. You’re lucky to have been born and raised in such a privileged society and one of the best cities in Canada. You’ve seen Canada change over the years, maybe for the worst. Reality is, most people who will read this comment have it way worse in their country.
Winnipeg is ultra affordable. A hidden gem for anyone that values the arts scene. Own a home and have money in the bank to travel more frequently. Or a buy a cabin at a nice lake.
🙌🙌
except nobody wants to live in Winnipeg, the weather is so cold and absolutely horrible
Canada and affordability are words that hardly match. 😬 The lakes here are definitely gorgeous and located relatively close to the city, but the season is ultra-short, so it is barely possible to enjoy the summer. Besides, mosquitoes here are crazy; no outdoor activities are possible without tons of repellents used on the skin and clothes. Not surprisingly, Winnipeg is more ‘affordable’ than other cities in Canada.😂
Haha I never would've pegged Anna as a big Michael Jackson fan
You're probably a recent subscriber 😉 Welcome! ❤
you wouldn't move to Canada
It was a joke😋 we would, just would have to work harder and prepare better.
Do not move to Canada my advice
Im moving IDGAF SORRY 🇨🇦🛬🤷♂️
@@LOU-bg2wu You will regret it. This country is a broke, woke authoritarian country now.
Who asked for your advice anyway 😹🚮
man, i'll get to canada in one way or another bro idc bout your advice 🥲
Why not?
Don't move to Canada. Trust me it's not actually worth it.
IAM from south Africa and Iam planning to move to Canada please help me to decide 😊😂
check out our "moving to Canada" playlist! What are you most unsure about?
Her face after hearing about her old friend from Montreal lol 😅
🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦 DO NOT MOVE TO CANADA! THERE IS A HOUSING CRISIS. 😡😡😡😡 Sorry we have a huge crisis here right now. Your life will be hard, & honestly due to the rental crisis & inflation you will be resented by Canadians when you are competing for rare housing resources. Sorry.
Thanks for sharing this. Moving to Canada certainly makes sense with much higher budgets than ever before. There’s a shortage of cheap housing, there’s no shortage of expensive homes.
Agree 100%. Unfortunate that these people don't listen to us and still keep on coming into Canada. The Canadian Dream propaganda is strong outside of Canada.
@@ralayilla1324can you people please just focus on working and let immigrants who want to come and buy houses and stuff there do. It's sad y'all can't afford stuff, and now you think everyone else is like y'all.?
@@willankhatter We never asked for third world migration to come on mass into Canada. This woke government is the one bringing in all these immigrants because they will be loyal slaves to the companies and institutions that own our government while Canadians and LEGAL immigrants from the past are the ones getting screwed over with high rent costs and no jobs as these companies prefer these immigrants. I hope to move out of Canada soon back to my home country and I highly urge anyone outside of Canada not to migrate to this woke third world wasteland.
We Filipinos loved Canada. So we're preparing hundreds of thousands of Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW) to send there. In time, Filipinos will build a lot communities there. And in the future, you will see a lot of Half Filipino: Half Canadian walking the Streets as we Procreate with the Canadians. Mabuhay! 👊.
Peace be upon you, my sisters. I want to ask you, with your permission. My husband immigrated to Canada on a tourist visa for the remaining four months and did not find work. Now he wants to return to Canada, but he wants to look for work, but he does not know anyone in Canada. Please, can you help me with any information? Can you give me a WhatsApp number so that I can explain my situation to you? Please, I swear I need this help. I am from Algeria
We have a Facebook group where you can ask your questions facebook.com/share/inZc2LSWB2kzzgUd/?mibextid=K35XfP
thank you for the information
You're welcome
