disagree, sorry to be blunt but you sound like a spoiled person who is using very real struggles of the lower and middle classes to justify personal greed ("I moved to the US because I want to InVeSt and not pay taxes"). Complaining about bike lanes that make Victoria so much more accessible and livable, are you for real?
I'm born, raised and educated in Canada. I spent much of my 20s living in the UK. I loved it and I only returned to Canada to complete my degree. I loved living in the UK and found the differences between there and Canada minimal. The thing I liked best? Awesome public transport. If I never had to drive again, I'd be happy. Salaries were about the same in the UK, maybe a wee bit less, but that was fine for me. Things like salary and weather are absolutely meaningless to me. I care about quality of life. If the right opportunity arose, I would definitely consider moving back there or to Ireland, which I also love. The USA is, quite literally, the last country in the English-speaking world I would live in. If you've got money, your life will be great. If not, you're going to struggle and god help you if you get sick and need extensive healthcare in the US. Healthcare, of course, is the Number 1 reason why Americans go bankrupt.
Thanks for sharing your experience. It's interesting to hear that you found the differences between Canada and the UK minimal. I'll have to look into that.
I spent time in the UK also. Weather was the same, but when I was there, the Pound was 2.4 times the CAD. So things got to be a lot more expensive in the UK. But I'm sure that has changed.
In Canada, lack of available health care is the number one reason people die. This after paying a 50 percent tax burden all of their lives. Need to see a cardiologist or oncologist. "We're scheduling patients 19 months out but MAID is available in two weeks." "Need a heart transplant - don't make us laugh" In short Canada is the biggest bull shit of a country out there and Canadians are a bunch of docile cows to put up with it.
If you think is bad now , wait until the migrant deported from the USA , Vancouver will be unrecognized, the tent city will double We need a responsible government , and we don’t have it at this time Canada is bleeding to death
I still remember 2 years ago when I was doing this for myself (Canada -> Philippines), people were still doing the old Canadian passive aggressive thing of saying "Don't let the door hit you on your way out." Now those folks are trapped inside their room because they can't afford anything. PS. Funny thing about the $100k income at the end. I made that amount in Surrey, BC and I could not afford a home. I can live fine...but to what end? I couldn't raise a family.
It’s very sad. I long for the days before our Drama Teacher Socialist experiment. I’m out. Cannot take it anymore. Canada will always be my country but it’ll have to be a memory and a few photo albums for me. I know that Canada is more than one man, one government and a series of bad policies…unfortunately the overall culture has changed. I only need to have a 5 minute conversation with an average urban Canadian for me to completely give up hope.
You're doing a fantastic job! Just a quick off-topic question: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How can I transfer them to Binance?
$100k in a lot of other countries that people are going to, is a lot of money. I have friends in Mexico, Bali, and elsewhere which is very comfortable.
im waiting until october 2025 to see if the next election changes anything, if life continues to get harder in canada i think i might move to the USA, i mean i live less than an hour from the border and could have 1.5x the buying power there doing the same job, im 30 and im the only one of my friends from high school who owns a home, most of my friends cannot afford to move out of their parents house, despite the fact my friends are mostly college educated with nearly a decade of work experience, the only reason i own a small bungalow in a small town is because i make more than double the average wage, but i still had to move 3 hours away from my family, and everyone i know to afford a house, still though its better than spending most of my money on rent and not building equity,
Wait a year or two and comeback as an immigrant and you'll get $82k in lodging, cash and healthcare absolutely free! .... everything the average Canadian has to work for.
@@living_in_latam no immigrant/refugee is getting $82k. The people who have no assets and no money and no job who are just starting out in Canada get the bare minimum to survive. Not sure where that number is coming from. There are calculators online that show that the support for a family of 3 is around $27k which includes lodging and food. That's less than $2k per month. There is no 'extra' for lodging. Yes, healthcare is free, but that's the advantage of living in Canada.
Do you agree or disagree with these points made?
hmmm. should be labeled "Why I left Vancouver"
@@Jon20202 It could be, But then I could have gone to Calgary or Edmonton with that title. Instead I went to a warmer climate.

I hope your wrong. But that is why I created the video to raise awareness.
Well said! Great video touching on a lot of the main points.
Huh, I didn't know that about Canada. Seemed like such a great place.
It's great in the summer. But expensive

totally agree. Well said. Especially $100k with a big amount going to taxes. It's hard anyone in the lower mainland.

where are you going to go?
@Montenegro
@@robertA19754 I've heard it's great there. It's on my list.
Very informative, I agree with things getting worse and worse over the years.
I understand everything ..If I was a younger man..Like MoesAxeTrows
It's all about your mindset, I was just helped a 65 year old with his options.
Well done vid Mintman! Too bad I missed you when I was in Medellin last year. Glad to see you doing well!
Hey Bro, maybe we'll cross paths again. Where you at now?
You're doing a fantastic job! Just a quick off-topic question: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How can I transfer them to Binance?
Thanks, I have no idea though.
One thing I disagree with is the notion that earning 100k means living like a king. That might have been true before 2018, but now, I'm not so sure.
$100k in a lot of other countries that people are going to, is a lot of money. I have friends in Mexico, Bali, and elsewhere which is very comfortable.
I said $100k is living comfortable in Canada not living like a king in Canada.
im waiting until october 2025 to see if the next election changes anything,
if life continues to get harder in canada i think i might move to the USA, i mean i live less than an hour from the border and could have 1.5x the buying power there doing the same job,
im 30 and im the only one of my friends from high school who owns a home, most of my friends cannot afford to move out of their parents house, despite the fact my friends are mostly college educated with nearly a decade of work experience,
the only reason i own a small bungalow in a small town is because i make more than double the average wage, but i still had to move 3 hours away from my family, and everyone i know to afford a house,
still though its better than spending most of my money on rent and not building equity,
Well said. Thank you for the detailed response. I agree.
Canada is now a cess pool.
@S.W.A......so please leave.
@@jeanninerobinson522 I prefer if you did.
Very candid and down to earth update on the Canada ruined by Truedumb （Trudeau)!
haha truedumb. I believe in facts.
Sounds like usa. So many tents in Washington DC. So much taxes going to other countries and lawlessness.
Panamanians don’t put up with this.

That is just simply not true.
