Logic of leaving Canada

After looking at the ripple effect of different parts of life in Canada, it appears it all comes down to the people and who they vote into office.

Super neat property!
Airbnb with a golf course.!!!!
@@tonnygomez2511 yes, fantastic idea. I don’t think there is a golf course anywhere in the area. The closest would be Asuncion.
Great idea. I will stay there only when Frieda is my hotel manager!
How much land is included and what’s the asking price?
It's just over 3 hectares and $295,000 USD
My mind is full of ideas for this place! I'm curious as to what you would have in mind for a place like this.
I am considering buying a piece of land in Aregua and this is very helpful. Thank you very much!
@@darkhorse75be Wishing you well. You’re welcome.
The friendliness of North Americans is fake overall, some are real but very very far and few between.
Hi How much salary per month
@@abobakrahmed7818 what type of job are you referring to? If it’s farming specifically and not having the whole operation go relatively smoothly it can be several thousand that can be cleared. There are 2 families living off the income of 1 dairy farm with a bit over 100 head of cattle.
@@Frieda_Wiebe thanks
@@Frieda_Wiebe I am referring to the job of a worker on a dairy farm. What is the salary? Do you have a private account so I can contact you?
@@abobakrahmed7818 that wouldn’t be anything significant. $1,000 USD would be a wage on the high side. You can email me at expatlifestyles2022@gmail.com

Do you guys export products from Paraguay to the USA?
@@anonmon6236 We haven’t yet but if we can land some clients there and it makes sense financially we absolutely would. So far, we have only been importing to Paraguay.
It's always great to hear that entrepreneurs are making well deserved progress. Fingers crossed it all keeps going in the same direction.
@@duncansmith7562 Thank you!
Any chance you could give the name of that school at 9:31.. it looks very nice
That would be The American School of Asuncion.

Canada should've been one of the richest countries in history of mankind given its Geographic position (no need to pay for an army), abundant fossil fuels, endless mineral deposits, and high IQ/high class population (before being flooded with Indians/Africans).
@@taterrhead It is very much on purpose that it is in the economic position that it is. And the overall cultural position as well. They have all the resources they could need to thrive!
If we wanted Mumbai and/or Dehli we'd move there ... not a colder, more expensive, less free version of them

@@BarthThomas-fl7dg The language is still a huge barrier for us but my husband made the joke to a provedor (a provider for our little store we get some of our products from) he doesn’t speak guarani but he speaks guarani 💵. Later, a provedor came and asked me if I also speak guarani 😂
In other languages same. When mispronouncing a word the meaning can be something total different. So nice the provider is caring about your relationship. Its nice because it comes from the heart

Biig fires in boliva and Matto grosso,brasil.
Hoping they get rain soon!
@@Frieda_Wiebe The ash generated by huge fires and/or dust storms sometimes cross continents as was the case of dust and grey skies originating in Africa reaching the US not too long ago; also, in the Northeastern US people recently experienced a lot of ash coming from uncontrolled fires in Canada,
When the farmers burn their fields the smoke can be terrible. Depending on wind we can get the smoke from Argentina when the farmers burn there also.
@@mwaynerowe4782 which farmers burn their fields?
@jameswright6886 the cattle ranchers like to burn their fields to renew their pastures. Corn and other fields get burned after harvest. The smoke from the dried vegetation is far from healthy but many of these crops were sprayed with chemicals that then are released with the smoke. Of course many Paraguayans burn their trash in rural areas and the toxic smoke from the plastics burned is the worst. These are things to consider when buying or settling here in Paraguay.
LOOK..COMING FROM SOUTH AFRICA /CRIME CAPITAL OF AFRICA..HERE IN PARAQUAY IS VERY LITTLE POLICE CORRUPTION..STREETS IS SAFE..😊😅❤❤..EVEN FORMOSA ARGENTINA..KIDS DRIVING WITH BYCYCLES AT 12H AT NIGHT ON WALK WAYS..NO RAPISTS..BO DRUG DEALERS..NO MURDERS..100 TIMES BETTER ..ITS PARADICE COMPARED TO WHERE I CAME FROM..BELIEVE ME GUYS..LIVE U ALL PRESCIOUS..😊😊😅😢🎉❤❤❤

You are correct, not as easy but it has already been so worth it in so many ways. Thank you!
Don't bother making a video if you need to blur out faces 👎
@@andrewst9797 I prefer to make it a point to not show my children’s faces and will extend it to others as well wherever possible but still do my best to show what I’m referring to. To each their own.
Drug dealers?
@@fodor7069 What??
Its 🕙 Neighborhood can helpful if have Unity% 75% & above .
The corruption here is peanuts,unlike the level of corruption in the USA.
Absolutely. Just easier in the USA, and probably all first world countries, to hide it from the general public because it's all buried in the taxes and gov. programs.
Nice video. For you, Paraguay now must look different from the Paraguay you knew in the 90"s during your childhood. Do you ever visit Asuncion, restaurants there, shopping malls, etc?
50's? 90's - early 2000s haha yes so much has changed from what I remember. I rarely go to Asuncion. The last time I was there was when we came back from Canada earlier this year. I have yet to step into a shopping mall here, we are solely focused on getting our business off the ground since we solely rely on our local income. But, whenever we are fully stable and getting ahead we will definitely start exploring and seeing more places in the country.
@@Frieda_Wiebe Yes, 90's - early 2000's; thank you for your answer,
Thanks for the story.
Thanks for listening
South America is a story of blood and tears... Its stolen property ravaged by mostly Iberian peninsula rooted people.. killing the natives and kidnappings black African people for sugar-plantations.. Was a businessmodel So without cheap labor, on stolen land property and killing the owners.. This could never have taken place.. as a business model... without these factors. In recent decades after WW2 it was war-zone ruled by dictators enabled by the CIA stemming form the local military's... Officers made heads of state by CIA.. Videla, Pinochet etc. Same as Saddam who also was an officer in Iraqi Military.. CIA uses tactics to destabilize and then to intervene.. Same as todays since 2000/2014/2022 Ukraine.. I get it JFK wanted a nice coherent peacefull world.. with Khrushchev.. JFK was about to smash the CIA into 1000 pieces before he got killed by that same CIA!!! This Organisation has more damage than good to the world... and its inhabitants including flora and fauna alongside destroying people.
Yes, South America has a nasty history. What most are concerned about these days is nothing compared to what a lot of countries have endured in the past. I have been hearing there may be more coming out about the JFK tragedy so will be interesting to see what is to come regarding that.
really interesting. was your schooling all Bible based? i get the feeling you never learned any Spanish or Paraguayan history? Kind of like being in Paraguay but not part of Paraguay.
@@duncansmith7562 thanks for bringing this up. I completely missed to mentioned that. That’s how it goes when your life is so normal for you, forget to describe certain aspects. No, never learned any Spanish, no Paraguayan history and not even our own Mennonite history. Even, besides that our heritage originated from Europe and lived in Canada before colonizing in Paraguay, I never knew much until my husband and I did our research.
You guys did the right move, and thanks for sharing your story.
You’re welcome! Thank you.
I watched a video about Colonia Sommerfeld and it is very beautiful there.
It’s something else, for sure!
Nice story, thanks for sharing. Hope you and your family are doing well and fulfilling your dreams as a family. God bless you!
Thank you so much!
She’s heavily downplaying the corruption in Paraguay. Thankfully there are better countries to live than there.
Don’t miss Paraguay and don’t ever want to waste more of my life there. Glad to move to a better country. Goodbye Paraguay Koolaid, I won’t miss your awful country and terrible living environment.
Nice
I want to business there but how will I get visa?
@@milonislam8189 You’re welcome to send me an email and I will give you contact information for someone who can tell you the process and do it for you if you would like.

The corruption allows underpaid government employees to make ends meet since and could be considered a commission.
Any school in Paraguay would be better than any school in Canada
Possibly, depending on whether or not you're only comparing the actual academics or overall environment.
