    Victoria, BC is an expensive place to live, at least for home owners. And where to find work that pays enough to thrive there.
    As an Albertan, Calgary has become an unrecognizable because of its growth since the 1980's. It has an incredible urban sprawl and has grown expensive. It has a very large immigrant population, that progresses well.
    Edmonton, 3 hours north is far more lively, interesting and more welcoming; and probably more jobs.

    The thing missing about London, ON is that the city's growth between 2011 and 2016 was INSANE. The 2011 census pegged the city at 330,000 people. Whereas in 2021, it was 590,000! That is a ridiculous increase of almost double. Believe me, you feel it in the traffic!

    Hello! I found your video very informative and I was wondering if I could ask for your opinion on life insurance. I'm new to this country and I've heard mixed opinions about it. Some people say that it's absolutely normal to have life insurance, while others say it's a scam and should be avoided. I'm not sure what to believe, so I wanted to hear your thoughts on the matter. Apologies for asking an unrelated question, but I hope you can help me understand better. Thank you!

    • @MakeThatChange
      @MakeThatChange  Год назад +1

      Personally I would not recommend buying life insurance. Many employers have private insurance as part of compensation package, it also includes life insurance in many cases.
      Life insurance could make sense in case you’re a bread winner for the family, or have big debts, and you want to make sure that should anything happen, your family is well taken care of at least a bit….
      Even if something happens, it may be a huge headache to actually qualify for the benefits, because insurance companies will always look for any fine print or excuse why your specific case is not covered.
      That’s our personal opinion, but I recommend you talk to a life insurance advisor and see what they say, just out of curiosity.

      If you are defining it by the Greater Metropolitan Area, than Toronto would be closer to 9-10 million. Therefore, it would still be larger than Dallas, Houston or Philadelphia.
