We now live in a world where Canadians are looking toward Mexico for a better life.
exactly, im canadian and im now considering it
@@lorrainebechard3432 to make money and send back
@@lorrainebechard3432 they dont
Yeah, we now live in a world where we've created such a decadent society that the rich and privileged feel oppressed and controlled, so with little appreciation, and the inability to be content with what they have, they go places far worse. The second act almost always plays out the same way... expats come home, with less money, no credit, struggle to even get car insurance, and many need to find a job again - now with years of no history. The pull of familiar faces, customs, similar values and old friends brings them back.
@@lorrainebechard3432 They regret it when they get here, I know
5th generation Canadian, and I nor my great grandparents would have thought of escaping this country. I thought about staying and putting in a fighting chance. However I'm starting to realize the people have truly been brainwashed. It's scary what this country has become.
This is so true. They will defend their way of life with their life...pun intended.
I am with you.
Cody I totally understand. My parents came here in 1989 when I was just a kid and we escaped communist Romania. The irony is that Canada is becoming a dictatorship now and so many people refuse to see this. I don’t see myself getting old here
@@chriscruciat2469 How exactly is Canada becoming a dictatorship? there are so many people exaggerating in these comments.
@@lumiant2882 when I came to Canada in 1989 Canada was very much a centre political system (not too far right and not too far left). I actually voted for the Liberals and I was a fan of Chrétien. Since then the Liberals have become more and more powerful but also more left wing to the point of being extreme. This is in order to attract as many people as possible to their party. What is more concerning is that those like me that were in the centre and have traditional religious values are now being called bigots, misogynists, racists because of refusing to accept many of the left wing narratives. If I refuse to accept my children’s educational curriculum that deals with explicitly sexual material I am an unfit parent according to the government. Since when does the government know better than parents what is best for their kids? Further We have a government that wants to control free independent press by labeling them misinformation. Further the government wants to centralize media which is indicative of the dictatorship system I grew up under. In addition, my religious values are threatened. My church is also threatened by activists because we refuse to accept gay marriage or trans. I am Christian Orthodox and we are supposed to change thousands of years of faith just because of some activists, no thank you. My church does not attack anyone’s choices, we just want to be left alone but that is not good enough for many of these left wing activists. So the attacks on the free press, attacks on religion, attack in free speech, cancelling of those of us that do not want to comply with left wing indoctrination are all indicative of a dictatorship that is being established in Canada and I am telling you this not because I read it somewhere but because I witnessed this before in Eastern Europe and now I witness it again here. There are many more things but I will stop here
Growing up Canadian, I never imagined leaving Canada for more freedom. Funny how things change. I moved to the US and even thats better.
many are moving to pakistan , india , turkie , greece , its too corrupt here
@@m-am7491 im first generation Canadian from Hungary. Good schooling good job working poor. So opportunity knocked and I never looked back. I left for better pay, better opportunity and lower taxes.
And its got worse since I left. I go back to visit friends and family and after a week im ready to go home.
I am hoping to get a job in the US... done with Canada
Justin Trudog is far more evil than people gave him credit for.
I said that when he got elected.
As a Canadian, I really appreciate you putting this video together. Never in my wildest dreams would I have ever thought that leaving my country could be on the table, but here we are.
I think you should. All of us should experience being an immigrant. It's not easy.
@@dallasneudorf True, but those who think Canada is socialist, a word they couldn't define, are not likely smart enough to accumulate enough cash to go anywhere.
I left Canada for Montenegro over a year ago and have found so much health and happiness, here. It breaks my heart to have left Canada, but I feel safer seeing politics unfold from abroad so that I have the time and ability to choose what I do in response. I didn’t have much difficulty communicating with the locals. Many know enough English to get by, and they are all patient and friendly. Google Translate is an asset. Thanks for the great content for Canadians, Andrew.
I had never heard of Montenegro until yesterday when I saw a video saying you can buy citizenship. So I looked it up and apparently it expired in December.😢
I was looking at Croatia but seems the job market there is underdeveloped. Do you work remotely for a US company?
Ja sam iz Ottawa ale sada ja sivim u Crna Gora. Ja volim. Hajde brat 🇲🇪🇨🇦
As a Canadian-ridiculously helpful.
I'm glad you liked it!
You are REALLY gullible.
Morons.
Many of my friends left Canada after 50 years of living here. Shameful what happened to Us Canadians I never thought in 100 years we come to this state.
Considering what the Cdn g@vt did to the indigenous people, what they are doing now to everyone else is not much different.

Well done Mr. Anthony
How were you able to live there?
Diejevehdk It's more difficult without a European passport.
@@krystalhooper1943 I applied for Italian citizenship by descent.
Made my exit as soon as Trudeau was re-elected, saw the writing on the wall. Been in Eastern Europe ever since, best decision I ever made in my life.
How did you get out (unless you're vaxxed) ? And did you need much money?
Me too.

Wise!
As a Canadian who works remotely, I have little incentive to move back home.
Curious to know what you do?
You are not missing anything but TYRANNY LIERS CORRUPTION. I wish I could move out of this dump country.
Pls advise how to find remote work in Canada?
@@ilrubin6456Become a useless Public Servant. They all work remotely from home and do even less. LOL

"Isn't it run by dictators!? ... do you mean Nicaragua or Canada!?" LOL
hehehe
Well, Ortega is much much worse
Western europe too
If you don't into politics, Nicaragua is wonderful. You are free.
@@maribelcalens6514 Safety there?
We are in Boquete area in Panama now. It is safe, friendly and simply beautiful. Great healthy lifestyle. As for tax: if you work online you do not pay tax in Panama. They consider any work online as “out of country”. Just approved and legalized bitcoin. They will not tax capital gains on BTC as it is considered to be internet based and not “in country”. Great place to live!
I'm planning to escape Canada. It will be somewhat difficult, given that I'm unvaccccced. You are on the ground, how Panama is dealing with the hysteria? Are there any restrictions? Did the government went nuts about using their power on the people? With only$150,000 cash, am I able to purchase a decent, rural property on couple of acres? I know, Panama want about 200 minimum if you apply for a residence, how ridgid are the rules?
Forgot to say thank you, if you reply!
@@edwardjones9580 the govt. did go nuts, however in rural areas you will be left alone...$150k is enough to buy a small house on a big piece of land, residency requirements are always changing but with that kind of investment there will be a way if not today, within a year...that's how often they change
@@edwardjones9580 Panama was one of the worst places to be during COVID. Lockdowns and restrictions were crazy. CUrfews, and limited time outdoors was allowed. People could go out a couple times for a few hours at a time. It was NUTS.
@@edwardjones9580 $150k will get you little land and maybe a small house in a location that is not great in Panama.
Thanks Andrew, as always priceless information. I just turned 30 this year and I'm finally moving out of Canada to live in Switzerland, Canada is just not it anymore... Thanks again !
can you work in switzerland as a canadian citizen???
From the frying pan into the fire
@@tubbyrainbow111lol
Isn't that even more expensive?
I am a Canadian who is actually seriously looking at moving to Paraguay. I am not rich but instead of buying new cars or a cottage we will be saving to hopefully buy property there and then eventually a house. Freedom is a priority. Safety is high up there with weather. We also want to be in an up and coming country. There are too many problems to deal with in these first world countries.
I like Paraguay a lot. I was there backbin March. Going back in July. It will be their winter.
Many germans are going to Paraguay.
@@leonelgaldinomonteiro4783 is that a good or had thing? I've read throughout history they have always emigrated there to Paraguay.
I was looking into Paraquay also, minimal requirements for citizenship there. Buy some land, have 30k in the bank and you're in!! It's the Canadian "leaving laws" that are the hassle especially if you rely on CPP, OAS for retirement income. Definitely hire a consultant when choosing this route.
@@leonelgaldinomonteiro4783 Yeah, I was gonna ask "How's your German" haha.
I have been researching this myself... A point to remember, your not stuck in the first place you move to forever.
A bird in cage is happy. Gets food and water. This bird is not free but doesn’t know what freedom is. A bird in the wild needs to forage to survive. This bird has true freedom. Which bird is the happiest? Canadians, for the most part, are the birds in the cage.
Dear Rave T, most countries have been " Like birds in a cage" infact, it's the title of my parody that I wrote under the lockout 🙏on RUclips, Million Dahlia 🌷🌻
Such a huge cage with freezing weather.
Yea I totally feel caged up in the Second largest country in the world. That as well is the most diverse country in the world.
Dudes, we have a much freer country than the US ever was or is! Try cleaning your own house up first.
Ask your congressman, why everything in the USA is a fucking Federal crime!
Every country is a cage. As long as theirs government there’s a cage. Once the WHO takes over the world in November every country will be controlled by them. It won’t matter where you “flee” to. It will all be the same.
So too Aussie's and perhaps more so because we're in the middle of nowhere ,where it's hard to travel.
In 2004 I wrote a somewhat famous article called 'Top 8 reasons not to immigrate to Canada'. In short, the Canadian authorities tried to destroy my life. They made it so that I could not be employable in Canada. So I moved to the U.S. in 2005 and then some years later I moved permanently to the Philippines. I am happy that so many years later videos like yours are saying essentially the same things that I did. I was ahead of my time. I will never go back to Canada. Not to live, not to visit, not even a connecting flight. Too cold, too expensive, taxes are astronomical, no freedom, no jobs, no opportunities, xenophobic people, too depressing. It has become the North Korea of the western world.
You copy paste this comment everywhere. What exactly happened?
I left Canada for the Philippines with my pregnant wife in 2013, we just built our house here and we are very happy living in this great, little country. We love the place!
@@LucianoClassicalGuitaryes , I noticed that as well. He is probably dealing with trauma. I can also relate a similar story and even worst and I left canada for good. Let's just say boogeyman in canada is existing in every moment in this country. Once the boogeyman attacks your in their database and truly your innocent but it does not matter. Hope you understood
@@LucianoClassicalGuitarhe must of got mentally tortured from the government. Like a boogeyman chasing you. I understand him well. He feels betrayed
That last sentence made me laugh. I can't take you seriously now.
We encountered scores of Canadians in Florida this Spring Break. Many were buying property and staying permanently. The political situation in Canada is intolerable for many.
Mind sharing where in Florida? Seems pretty expensive just in terms of currency exchange rate and cost of living. Cities like Miami and Naples are expensive even for Americans especially with housing
@@BattousaiZ All of it, I live here and so do my grandparents (we are also Canadian 😂) and near the Naples area I saw every other car being from Canada (either Québec or Ontario) over the last 4 months, in Tampa I saw about 20 cars daily from Canada. So there is definitely a big influx of people from up north. Also include northern American states as well.
@@thegermanshot5651 that’s awesome, happy for you, bro. I am from Quebec and dissatisfied with the direction the country is going in... Looked at houses in Miami and Naples and seems way too expensive already. Wished I did what you did and moved there years ago before housing market exploded. I think the license plates you see are from tourists and I am pretty sure those locations are out of reach for the average Canadian. Any suggestions for lower cost cities in Florida? Heard Tampa and Orlando are nice but prices have gone up as well
@@BattousaiZ so to be honest, everything in Florida has gone up in price, my rent alone went up $400 this year and prices of everyday goods are also going up. Idk if I can help you man 😅
I'm from western Canada. I've lost count how many times we've vacationed in Florida. As retirement gets closer and the direction Canada is taking under a Liberal "progressive" socialist regime, I would really like to live permanently in Florida. My problem is how do I make it happen. Perhaps I should walk in from Mexico and declare refugee status.
Thank you Andrew for making this video. As income taxes are about 35% to 50% depending where live in Canada.
Glad it was helpful.
Income taxe is on income, not a wealth tax, which we don't have ... Yet. They are talking about it.
That aside, you are incorrect. I was earning $125k year 3 years ago when I retired. My taxes were 54% of income. You have to remember that taxes include items labelled as CPP, EI, etc. Just because they are not labelled as tax doesn't mean they aren't a tax.
And remember, you will lose a further 5-12% of what you get to keep when it's time to spend your money. That's the sales tax.
Oh wow very true@@ickster23thanks for the correction on my wording.
@@FrozenSentinel I was also paying $14K/y into my CAF pension fund, which is a tax as well. That fund was raided of it's surpluses twice by government. If they can raid it and use the money how they see fit, then it''s a tax. That extra 13% is what put me above 50%
@@FrozenSentinel As I mentioned, the pension contribution is a tax. The money I put into it was taken twice by the government over the past 35 years. We, the contributors, put the money in, the government took the money out. To add insult to injury, they jacked up premiums the following year because there wasn't enough after the robbery to cover the liability.
I left Canada 3 years ago and I'm now retired in SE Asia, very comfortable with my decision, every day I wonder why more people don't do it
Money & horrible tropical bugs ? NomadC is catering to 7 or 8 figure entrepreneurs. If that's a criterion, it cuts out a lot of people.
Which Asian country did you move to, if not too personal?
How to get visa or citizenship there?
What is the average monthly cost to live there and rent?
Thanks. God Bless.
@@nikkion2140 I live in Thailand and I'm over 50 thus qualify for a retirement visa, most expats say they live on $1000 to $1500 a month US
Congrats..You should make videos of the process..I can’t wait till Trudope to be re-elected ( and he will be bcuz the elections are rigged)
@@mjor6406 Exactly! Moving to a foreign land is for retirees and some of them eventually return home.
Weather, healthcare, safety, costs, lifestyle. We have lived outside of Canada for 17 years in Europe, Egypt, Kenya, Philippines and Guatemala and have a list of places to rate those 5 areas to see where a place would be great to retire. Looking at those 4 headers, I’m sad to say that Canada doesn’t score well.
Always enjoy your perspective Andrew. Priorities are definitely most important. Adventure, warmth, and closeness to family are top for me as a retired Canadian. I’ve been to Nicaragua and a lot of south/central countries so we all don’t think Nicaragua is run by a dictator but political stability is an issue for me. Thanks again
Moving back to Barbados where I was born.
Big up my Caribbean neighbor
Lucky
Can I go with you?
don't blame you.
8:16 in Nicaragua there is a large Canadian community, they are at San Juan del Sur, a small fishing town in the pacific.
Great if you like crime and drug cartels.
@@krisskross8985 Canadian government is a drug cartel .. and crime ?? They are #1 in that also .. more people are afraid of dying than living .. do you see someone who rides a motorcycle and start lecturing them about the more obvious choice of living more dangerously than driving a car . They choose the motorcycle for quality of life while they are alive and it outweighs the risk
I have about 15 years left before retiring, but the way Canada is deteriorating over the years, I'm planning on leaving before then.
Southeast Asia is looking more & more attractive.
I'm definitely seeking another passport.
Having freedom of my life and my body and less chance of tyranny is my priority.
Talking about roads…..roads in Canada (especially Manitoba ) are totally falling apart.
Saskatchewan is the same. It's more of a slalom then a road lol. Had a sink hole hit the news in Saskatoon acouple weeks ago. It swallowed half a car... and that was at a busy intersection.
Come to Quebec!!!
We live in a country with a freeze/thaw cycle. It will always be a battle to keep up with Mother Nature. We could raise your taxes but that would make your head explode.
BUT WHO WILL BIULD THE ROADS??? :-))
BC not much better,
Thanks so much for this video ❤️👍
Isn't world changing.
The South Americans are moving to North America and North Americans moving to South America. The world has gone crazy.
The grass is always greener syndrome.
I am Canadian and will be looking to leave but there are so many variables to consider when you have a family. Truck Trudeau !
Could you do a c*ov*d specific segment? Going from the craziest, like Canada to the least crazy or outright normal, like (?). Also how far $200,000 gets you, in a rural setting, committed to self reliance.
Actually the craziest is China
Costa Rica 2 bdrm house 2.5 acres for $65k. So there are deals around!
@@phoenix_heart1111 Is the property located in a rural area or near a metro/city?
Yes; this.
Crazier than China? Let's face it this channel attracts lots of right wing zealots who whine and cry about mask wearing and then think of moving to Latin America as the safer and freer choice to live. What a laugh. Most people leave Canada for adventure, culture, and/or warmer temperatures and not because of taxes or who is in power in Ottawa. I'm thinking however that it would be a good thing to have most of you leave. May I suggest trying Russia or North Korea? They won't be warm and they'll definitely laugh at your silly notions of "freedom" and "hands-off" governance, but at least us Canadians left behind will sleep well knowing that you're gone. Good luck!
I left Canada 2.5 years ago and moved my assets and bought property in Cape Town, South Africa. Best decision I have made ever. Of course there are things to work around to get established but life if great here. Cost of living is low, and landscape is amazing, real estate is incredible and very affordable and by the ocean and mountains, weather is great year round. Politics sucks and corrupted, but it has its good sides. I'm thinking of buying a second home in either Latvia or Georgia for business and being closer to Europe for a few months out of the year and go Skiing. I would love to work with Capitalist Nomad to help people relocate here in Cape Town, South Africa.
Just got my PR in Mexico on Thursday!
Do you have a Mexican wife or is your wife Canadian?
My wife and I are English descent, want to move to Mexico but worried about the permanent language barrier
@@VwapTrader id be happy to explain the process from start to finish. I hired an excellent lawyer who was a major help.
@@VwapTrader The language barrier is only permanent if you let it be permanent. I had a 6 month long headache when moving to the US but my English is fine now. It will never be perfect, but it works and that is all you really need! The hardest part is to just go for it and not worry about your mistakes. Go beat up some Mexicans with awful Spanish for 3-6 months and one day it won't be so bad. Or anyway that is how it was with my English. Mexicans are exceptionally friendly in my experience.
@@VwapTraderAbsolutely learn Spanish… your life & comfort will be infinitely much better
Thank you Andrew!!
Thank you so much for addressing the pressure and conflict faced by making such a move. You are absolutely right about investing in the right relationships. I am so happy I stumbled upon your site. Thank you for all this content directed to Canadians. Incredibly helpful.
I moved to Cyprus in 2022. Best move I ever made.
I just got back from there. It is beautiful
As a middle class American, it meant a lot moving from one part of the US to another taking these variables into account. Washington State vs. Oklahoma you might as well be in a different country. Hoping to save enough to do more of what Andrew is talking about.
@Fauci is-a-liar ok, you know what? Shut up. I’d don’t have 7 or 8 figures to my name so I can’t just up and go wherever I want whenever I want. I don’t have the mindset to run my own business or day trade my way to suddenly having millions in income. No place is perfect. Washington locked down for months, Oklahoma did the “two weeks,” realized it was stupid and opened up right away. I never lost a day of work. Is Oklahoma freer than wherever your happy place is? Maybe. Is it freer than Washington? Yes.
@Fauci is-a-liar Yeah it is. I live in DC. I just have to drive about 45 minutes in any direction and it starts becoming very different to DC itself. Actually more so than going to most other places I travel outside the US as far as how the people behave, especially as regards the pandemic.
Yes, the federal government overreaches constantly. Yes, big tech is evil. Yes, the country has serious issues. But my parents were locked at home for over a year in Argentina and needed special permission to travel even within the country. The reaction to the pandemic is not a thing unique to the US. The whole freaking planet lost its mind and most governments seemed to really enjoy the extra power.
I know it is not fashionable to say this on this hate America channel but If you are anti "health uber alles" most of the the US (outside the big blue blob areas) is pretty good as far as the virus response. This is one thing about the US that is trending in the right direction. My biggest current complaint is that the US will not let unvaxxed foreigners enter at all, and the test for citizens to re-enter is rubbish.
People from all countries are moving around, not just Canadians. Canadians usually move to sun destinations.
Welcome to CHINADA !!!
Great content, the human component, well said, thanks Andrew
"Do you mean Canada or Nicaragua" so true! I luckily left Canada almost 2 years ago. Its scary how almost all the news i am seeing from Canada is only re affirming that I made the right choice.
Where did you go to?
Canada is now a gestapo state
@@mariannelefebvre6028 Colombia and moved investments to Panamá
So glad you're gone.
Can we get an update on where we should move to in 2024/2025?
This is all very informative, thank you. Unfortunately here in Canada we are not "allowed" to leave if unvxt, so do we apply for asylum and where? Any country? Ridiculous we are the only country (I believe) in the world doing this right now.
I am hearing that this will be dropped by end of July early august. I’m anxiously awaiting as well to leave.
Ya as a Canadian myself it’s more then unbelievable that I cannot leave my own country! hey but I can go to a hockey game with thousands of people! Canada makes no sense to me anymore???
Lots are leaving by driving now vet USA border
This, jail Canada, is my issue to. My youngest son quit his college as soon the vac became mandatory, and escaped to Hungary before the election last fall. I'm stuck here, not permitted to leave, for me it's especially rich situation, given that I escaped communism once, almost 40 years ago, and now I live under stricter conditions than I ever did. I know most people don't believe me, but I had way more freedoms, including speech, under that version of socialism, than the current style of fasc****ism. I talk to much, this will be disappeared, anyway my son hoped that he could visit us, for a month or so, he checked the website about the rules, can come in unable to leave. Called the embassy in Budapest, they been extremely rude, (where is that famous Canadian politeness?), and they told him, nothing will change, and comes September more restrictions are coming! I had enough, just want to leave this country!

Hilarious that the b-roll of Uruguay at 11:00 pans right over the Canadian Embassy on the east side of Independence Plaza.
Can you please do a similar video like this in regards to Greece and Denmark? I’m curious on those two countries
The Emergencies Act was a big mistake and for that reason I'm expecting the next federal government will be conservative. I don't understand how Canada couldn't deal with demonstrators. That's everyday life in many Latin American countries.
It wasn't so much that the Canadian government couldn't deal with the protests, it was just simply the fact that Trudeau's ego couldn't deal with the protests. Few nation states on Earth have such an immature narcissist at the helm.
I could be wrong, but I have this feeling they will not be giving anyone a chance to vote out the current government “leadership”.
@@taraelizabethlivinglife4094 I'd be surprised if we even have an election again especially after Biden signs the "treaty" with the UN on Tuesday. The Great Reset is upon us.
@@taraelizabethlivinglife4094 Canada has free and fair elections. Stop spreading misinformation.
I'm with Tara. I don't know that we will ever by rid of the wokesters here in Canada. I've just plain had enough with this country. Still arbitrary restrictions on the personal freedoms of millions. If the trend is your friend, I don't see things getting any better in Canada in what remains of my lifetime. Exit, stage left.
My wife and I sold our house and left Canada last summer, and have spent the last six months in San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua. We had planned to get residency here, but have now changed our mind and will be moving on. The number one reason for leaving: the climate. The heat here in San Juan del Sur is energy sapping and totally enervating. I just can't be productive here. There are cooler places in Nicaragua, of course, but that means living in a hill town, far from the sea (which brought us here in the first place). Several other like-minded Canadians who came here at around the same time as us are also filtering away.
What are some other good options?
Yall never satisfied lmao
@@DeusExMachina50 In this neck of the woods (Central America) Costa Rica might be a better choice. Territorial tax system, like Nicaragua. And the central valley area (where capital San Jose is) is much cooler, if climate is a factor. I still don't trust the CR government, however. Are they buying into digital ID and New World Order, or not? Can't be sure.

I'm sure folks gave you just the right amount of credit for your level of intelligence.
@@donskuse2194 the thing is Don, he’s absolutely correct. Did you vote for this corrupt government. If so that shows the level of your intelligence.
I have lived in Playa del Carmen for about 4 years. I practice law in Atlanta, so the ability to drive my car to Cuncun airport and take a 2-hour flight to Atlanta at a moment's notice is critical. The number of Canadians and US folks who have moved here in the last year is crazy. Too many quite frankly.
Same here in cancun. I don't go back to the USA often though.
A couple of things..you practice law and cannot spell Cancun. What is wrong with the Canadians and the US folks ?
Would you like to meet in person?
Great content !
Just want to let you know appreciate what you’re doing delivering massive value to the international community👏🏼
Thank you so much!
Since the Lieberal Party took over government Canadians are forced to find a better place to live. Wouldn't it be simpler to get rid of the Lieberal Party?
I would like to offer another option, Thailand. Even though there is a military dictatorship The weather is hot, but the food is delicious, the cost of living is not high. Delicious food everywhere, including mini-marts that are on every corner of the street in every area 24 hours a day.Thailand the best.🇹🇭❤️🇨🇦
Best time we had in my country was during limited democracy with a military junta and monarchy.
You missed Ecuador, heaps of Canadians here, cheap and free, though a US dollarized currency conversion
I believe he did mention Ecuador, though I would like more information!
Most helpful and timely, Andrew
It would be great to compare healthcare in different countries - for someone who is planning to retire outside of Canada it may be useful
Have you seen our latest video about medical tourism? ruclips.net/video/TCIOkNgKmOE/видео.html
Most countries have better health care than Canada
@@kevinjboles yep, especially in Cuba and Venezuela
I have a question what about retired people who are receiving. OLS ? They can t stay more than 6 months out of Canada other wise they re going to cut their OLS do you have any solution?
Post Budget 2024 on April 16, it has not gotten better. Maybe good to update this even though most of this is the same.
I'm looking at Thailand: excellent medical services that are also relatively inexpensive, friendly natives, ubiquitous English, great and abundant food, warm climate (albeit sometimes too warm), easy air access to other countries via the Bangkok hub, low cost of living...
One of my favourite countries
Always good. Always interesting
Thank you.
I completely understand Canadians leaving and I would be doing the same thing if I didn’t have a family. Cost of relocation is just too high when you are middle class unless you move to a lower cost location.
Cost of relocating? cost of relocating can be as cheap as airfares.
@@perrykomick9478 true ! I was thinking about indirect cost or opportunity cost. For example, my wife will have to find a new job and with he PHD in Psychology from Canada, not even sure it will be recognized there…If I factor in house, car and stuff then it’s a lot ot manage. Much easier before having kids
CANADIAN DICTATORSHIP 🙌
It's shocking how quickly places like Canada, Australia and England devolved into tyrannical countries with harsh lockdowns, mandatory injections, and stealing the assets of people they don't agree with. As bad as things have been here in the US, I would still rather live here than any of those places. Each state handled Covid differently. States like Florida, Georgia, and South Dakota had little to no lockdowns at all.
Yup I'm planning on leaving too
Wow. Super extremist. Canada is Top 10 globally democracy. It did slip this year in rankings though. If you want to know what a dictatorship is you need to travel more
@@Whatisthisstupidfinghandle question: are you living in Canada ?
@@Whatisthisstupidfinghandle 😁
I always come back to Argentina or Uruguay when trying to find where to go.
URY is a good choice but ARG has an insane tax system with wealth tax included , if they can find your money...great food though
ARGENTINA AND CHILE FORGET IT ABOUT IT FOR NOW...THEY ARE BOUTH GONE THE "TRODEAU" WAY. NICE TO VISIT AND SPEND SOME MONEY THERE BUT DONT EVEN THINK ABOUT MOVING TO THOSE COUNTRIES.
'Human element' consideration important. You're right Andrew. Also when deciding to 'live abroad' regardless of which country, we take with us our own human nature. If we are miserable by nature, then misery may still find us abroad. 'The man in the mirror' - Michael Jackson 😆
Why bring this weirdo up ?
Medical freedom and a rigid constitution would be a good start. Which means actions taken during the COVID 19 era

I live in Costa Rica. I have been here permanently for 4 years. Once you get use to it, know where to go for what you need, it's pretty easy. We have a new President and he, I think could really help this country grow and become a less 3rd world county (I call it a 2.5 world country) and create a better foreign investment plan and a path to citizenship. I travelled to several countries before making my decision. Compared to all of the others (Brazil was pretty close) the people are much more friendly here. They smile at you and say hello (no more stupid mask mandates here), they are helpful and for the most part gracious. I can't see me going back to the US unless the direction of the rulers changes drastically and that goes for both parties (one in the same).
I lived in CR in 2017. How have they been the last few years with COVID? Are they taking extreme measures like forcing people to lose their jobs, pay fines, etc to get the vaccine? This is what Canadas been doing
@@MatthewHeinrichs The new President just took over. He dropped all mandates. The last president was a WEF graduate and member so they shut down everything as long as they could. The Health Minister under the old President went to work for Fauci so you can put the pieces together easily. As with all new politicians we have to give it a little time to see if he bows to the WEF or stands behind his true direction
@@cougarlove8542 interesting. WEF association seems like a good measuring stick these days for the direction a country is going to go. I had seen that the public schools in CR were mandating the COVID vaccine.. any idea if that's still a thing? Of was it ever?
Costa Rica looks very eager to hand over its Sovereignty to the WHO for management in of future illnesses. Would be a risky bet to move there for people who love freedom, could easily become another China 2.0 if another bad cough comes around
@@MatthewHeinrichs No more vaccine mandates other than front line workers. Which were all forced to take the poison when they came out. My daughter goes to a private school and they never mandated this but I am not sure if they ever did in the public schools.
Hey Andrew and team; curious as to why you guys don't suggest Florida as at least an option?
Because he hates the US? To the point that he expatriated himself? And his business is built on helping others who hate the place to leave? Just spit-balling here but I feel like I am in the ballpark.
very expensive
I live in San Juan Del Sur and there are a ton of Canadians and Europeans here. I feel safer here than I did in the Seattle area. I have a 170 deg view of the Pacific Ocean which is a 2 minute drive or short walk.
Me too I am in San Juan Del Sur Nicaragua, I love this country with much more freedom
Of course you feel safer, it's not the U.S.! The more expats in the area the more likely prices will rise. It's interesting how expats brag about taking over the best real estate in a foreign country (as they are the only ones who can afford it). We used to call that colonialism.
I just returned from 3 weeks in Argentina and it was the 13th country I've visited and BY FAR the best country I've visited. First world country filled with the FRIENDLIEST PEOPLE, good infastructer, free medical, even for non-residents. We're returning next year for 7 months with the idea of moving there.
which city did you visit in Argentina, and would you say its better than Eastern European countries?
#1 is children. Moving to a different country with children is difficult. Education, future, and language of the children.
YOU GOT TO DO WHAT YOU GOT TO DO. NOW BETTER THEN LATE
@@marcionero7412 Nope. You're wrong again. I hope you're not a lifestyle coach. You would suck at it.
Its actually easier for them when they're young, move to an English speaking country if language is a problem
Canada was one of the best places to go to. Today it is NOT, thanks to Trudeau.
Canada was a good place to GO but now it's a good place to be FROM.
Not really! It was always hard to start small business and it was never encouraged and that’s a fact.
That's right I was so happy 14 years ago to come to Canada and enjoy my life here but the last to years has been hard and I wish I had never know Canada
@Ken Davies Sorry but Canada was voted the #1 Country to live in. In fact since Trudeau has been PM, it has been in the Top 5. Canada is a great country, it doesn't matter who the PM is or what Government is in power. Canada is run by the people, for the people. Canadians live a great live, better than anywhere else on Earth. If you travel, you will see how great Canadians have it. If Canada is to bad, why is it the #1 destination for people to move to??
@@tonespeaks u are in denial if u think this place is the happiest and freest on earth. I can't wait for this mandate to drop so I can leave this country for good. As a dual citizen I'm even willing to renounce or give my citizenship in order to leave this place
As a Canadian, I could not stand the bad weather, the high costs, and it was very hard to get a job there. So I left Canada for better job opportunities abroad. My life has improved drastically by living abraod. I never going back to Canada.
Why would you not suggest anyone moving to France? Is that high tax for a retiree or passive income? I heard France has a no double taxation agreement with US.
The Canada of today has restricted individual freedom drastically and will restrict them in a whim according to corrupt govt standards, has an old and inefficient health system, has an ideological and corrupt education system, has no free speech-people lose their jobs if they only mention certain words and are consequently afraid to speak their minds, and the list goes on. But the cherry on top is the complicated and high tax system. You are definitely not treated well.
In other words, you pay a lot and you get little back. It's definitely a good time to leave the country and have a better life elsewhere, and at the same time contribute to a society and country that treats you well.
This.
Yes but what do you do? Just sell all of your hard earned belongings?
@@alexxx5749 yes, sell! Lots of people are doing it. In the end they are just "things". Ship what you cannot part with but liquidate the rest or rent them out. You will get better things In your new place. Just get out while you can.
@@alexxx5749 Business implies risk and adventure, if you are not ready just stay put.
Most countries discourage whiners from remaining in their countries. Your ideas about "freedom" will not go over well wherever you go. They'll laugh in your face or they'll think "I thought Americans were the crazy ones these days".
I'll left Canada in 2000. Spent a few years in USA, more than a decade in China and now I'm living in Vietnam.

I think I have an easier time understanding non-native english speakers speak english than in Ireland. I know that's terrible but I really have to tune in to understand them.
Great brain exercise. :-)
Good luck finding any Irish here after they flooded the country fighting/breeding age "refugee" men from third world places. Fed them, housed them in top class places, clothed them, free health care, free transport, free money (€300+/week from Irish peoples tax), privilleged treatment with the law.
Purposeful demolition of Irish people and culture. So so sad to see.

I received an advertisement. In Dutch, because I live in the Netherlands. The advertisement said: "vluchten naar Canada" I thought, why flee to Canada, of all places? But they meant: flights to Canada. By the way, the flighttickets were cheap.

That's fantastic news! Serbia indeed offers great opportunities for business and immigration. Wishing you all the best with your move and new venture!

Greece. Please do a video on the practical pros and cons of having a second home there.
That's where I went after leaving Canada just before the travel ban hit last year. So far it's been pretty good. Definitely some adjustments to be made in life but overall things have been much better here than back in Canada
Id say youre better off in a country near by thats cheaper to live in and a bit nicer. Serbia in all honesty is alot better for daily life but greek beaches are a short 8hr drive from large cities like novi sad or belgrade.

I was talking to my Polish born cousin in Calgary AB. He has two grownup children (born in 🇨🇦) and he's filed the paperwork with 🇵🇱consulate to confirm their citizenship by descent.
I have met some Polish-Canadians down here in Nicaragua who immigrated to Canada back in the 1980s, and are now looking to return to Poland. Met some in Costa Rica too. They see what's happening in Canada and feel they have no choice but to leave.
@@realsamuelhawley As long as they never lost their Polish citizenship (since the 60s the only way to lose Polish citizenship is to voluntarily renounce) it shouldn't be too hard to return to the homeland. Poland's nationality law effectively extends citizenship to anyone with Polish ancestry provided at least one ancestor was a citizen on paper living in 🇵🇱 after 1920. Without a Polish immigration attorney, the process of confirming Polish citizenship by descent/ancestry can be pretty complicated otherwise.
@@realsamuelhawley Now with the war in Ukraine it is not a very good idea to move to Poland.

Anyways, i moved to France and so far so good.
Macron, like Trudeau is another member of the wef.
As someone who grew up in France I can chip in: very bureaucratic, sky high taxes and depending on where you may go in France, safety can be an issue. Plus the high cost of living.
Macron is WEF
@@paymans1153 Very bureaucratic is an understatement! If you are retired or maybe work under the table remotely or something it might be OK, but running any sort of business is just a nightmare. An absolute nightmare. France is a fine place to vegetate or spend money if you are in a good zip code, great food great wine blah blah, but its a bad place try to be productive. Just owning an apartment you can experience this. Firing anyone in France takes an act of God, including thieving harassing building superintendent/concierges. We ultimately had to bribe one to quit which cost around 4000 euros from each unit in the (small) building, and that was a while ago. In addition France now has tons of "permanent undocumented guests" lying around highway medians and public parks, and not just in Paris, its pretty widespread.
