I hold a Canadian passport and lived there for 15 years, enjoyed my time but its too expensive, too cold and too miserable to stay. SE Asia is now home, I'll never return
I'm leaving Canada for SE Asia soon 🙏
@@christopherconceal9715 I'm right there with you both
Well I really am desperate to get a citizenship since I really wanna escape India
@@darkghost1916 Fair enough. I would go to the east coast of Canada or the prairies if that's the case. Lots of land
@Celal Taşdemir Im not Asian Im caucasian hold both Canadian and Australian passports but live in Thailand
As a Canadian, I would strongly recommend against this unless you love paying taxes.
If you want equality come to Canada. If you want opportunity, go somewhere else.
Take Some Dude advise! Not the place it once was.
Agreed. I've lived in Canada for 30 years and I would have left last year except for my wife/kids. The Country is rapidly degenerating into a third world communist dictatorship with high inflation/taxes and a lower standard of living. Why anyone would voluntarily want to come here is beyond me.
If he is already in Canada than he is already paying taxes, so it will be a matter of tax exit to get out, so having a passport may not hurt at the time.
his question is regarding acquiring citizenship, not living in canada. these are 2 different ideas.
@@harry12 You're quite right, but the question to Andrew was posed by a Canadian permanent resident who was debating whether or not to get Canadian citizenship presumably to secure his place here, something I would personally not recommend to anyone. A Canadian passport (at the moment) has some value, but that may well change in the future as well.
Can’t even travel domestically or leave the country without Quaxx pass. Who in the right mind would want citizenship here.
What really ??? How do you manage that ?
@@Gnashercide With cattle minded population. All about compliance.
Same here in Chile.
If you would live in a country which is nothing close to a democratic one, you would understand that.
WHat is mean Quaxx pass?
Get Canadian citizenship??!!! I’m a Canadian, trying to run as fast as possible to a free country
Which country you wish to move if you get a chance.....???
Depends on what you want. Lifestyle and more money with less work head to Europe. I moved from Ontario to UK and all has been great. If you want to protect your daughter from braindead culture, I'd pick UAE, Qatar, Singapore, HK or Japan. Good luck my Canadian brother. Sorry out home has fallen apart
I'm with you on that. It will be an even worse place to live when all the hard working, freedom loving Canadians have left. I don't know who will be left to pay for the bloated welfare state.
Please tell me you left, Canada doesn't want you here.
“Politicians are always SLITHERING to the next argument.” LOL. Thanks for going with the word that fits, Andrew!

As a Chinese, I guess I would like to become an American citizen in Texas or Florida. Unfortunately, I just can choose to become a Canadian citizen for now. I would say Canada is better than China if I have to choose even though it is becoming China. What a beautiful country! It is ruined by the communists who don’t even realize they are advocating communism. Same strategy, same stupid sheep. What a shame!
@@minitiger650
Why is Canada your only option, if I may ask? Plenty of countries are open and don't have these asinine communist rules.
Thank you for your videos. Love them. Watch them often. Your perspectives are enriching. Don't need the musical intro. A chime and a logo would be enough.
I immigrated to Canada in 1995 from fallen communism regime… and 2021 left Canada to live in Mexico.
Canada definitely has become a totally different country. Robbing people with taxes, mismanagement, pretending to be successful and developed, corruption on highest levels now it is turning into biometric ghetto. I am not even wealthy person with millions, I paid my taxes lived by the book… but seeing what is happening in/to Canada right now is heartbreaking.
I would strongly recommend an extensive research of Canadian life before considering moving there.
I totally agree! Born and raised in what was once a country to be proud of. Sadly, Canada is no longer the country I grew up in and loved. It's a shit hole country with a corrupt Gov and a spineless population. Going down the tube fast IMO...We left
how many percent of taxes though ? can you explain
100%
@@ivanoov3285 It depends on your income but expect 35-50% of your income to go to taxes.
Yes I know all this! I'm born in Canada and in1989 I decided to move to Florida USA because of the cold winter and tired to pay taxes and at that time was not bad like today, I lived 40 years in Florida got all my papers and finally lived the American dream everything was soo cheap I could buy things that was too expensive for me to buy in Canada even food Rib eye, T-bond steak was soo cheap But! like I say NOTHING LAST FOREVER last year I decided again to leave this beautiful country because I see the same pattern started many years ago everything getting expensive and decide to move to Panama central America and so far so good! living in Panama is like living 40 years in the past! everything is very slow! people are nice laid-back no stress, food are cheap taste of the beef and chicken is fantastic like before when I was young. I think I found my last place and at the same time I feel sad how Canada became one of the world taxed country!
The biggest concern about Canada is not whether or not there is a tax play there or not, Andrew. People are fleeing from Canada due to the tyrannical medical police state there.
Exactly. It's saving you butt.
There is no medical police state in Canada 😂
Omg get over it. It isn’t tyrannical. Even California is pretty much open now. Just wear a mask. How has your life really changed?
@@evanserickson they are demonizing people who do not want to be a part of the 'experiment'. That's why.
@Maltesw7Boi Can you leave Canada whenever you want to without a vaccine??😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
It's weird, here in Latin America people dream to go to the "land of dreams" but my friends want to come here =D
Thats because Latins are clueless as to how bad communism has penetrated the US and how absolutely tyrannical Canadanistan has become. Since I have lived all over Latin America and am American, I wouldnt be in a city in either locale at this point. My friends are fleeing Canada because of the poke in the arm.

@@pinschrunner Oh, yeah. 'Cause Latin America is a shining beacon for freedom and successful neo-liberal economics.
Not weird, both Canada and USA are falling super fast
Both americans and Canadians are clueless, they still have the self entitlement and low education to think no place is better. Well at least more than 90% think like that.
Great points 🙏
As a Canadian, and i want success, and oppotunity for a better life. I can tell you this right now, i cant wait to leave Canada. As matter of fact, as soon as the oppotunity is given, i am outta here. so no, stay away from Canada unless you love paying 70% of your income in taxes.
70% 😱 More than 50% of your income... quite a lot.
@Celal Taşdemir 70% is adding just about everything. Income tax at 50%, gst and pst that's 13% thr the rest in sales tax for everything you buy. So yeah... about 70%
I am scared with real state market… 😥
@@vanpak oh yeah almost forgot that the avg house in Canada is about 800k and the average wage is 20 a hour.

In 2010 I worked in Canada on a special work visa for the Olympics. I did it for the experience not the money. The bad part was the VAT ate a lot of my generous pay. For those Canadians with lower income, the thought the VAT and other taxes was a good value for health care and social service. The upper income and business owners complained about the high taxes and poor services.

Once you get a Canadian passport, you could enjoy world travel, with less tension than a US passport. Canada has excellent relations with other countries and does not have the stigma of wars.
Living in Canada is not that great, but it's passport is great.
Yes, there is a STRATEGIC advantage to having a Canadian passport versus a US one, if you are a wealthy individual (or have reasonably high income). Canada does not tax its NON-RESIDENT citizens.
But to become a non-resident (for tax purposes), you do have to do a bit of a “song and dance”. For example you cannot have any “substantial ties” to Canada (own property, have immediate family, like wife and dependent children, living there etc.), and your physical presence in Canada cannot exceed a certain amount of time.
And while there is some talk (from the fringes) about citizenship-based taxation, this is not likely to materialize in my humble opinion. That is because I’m sure the politicians are keenly aware that it will be almost impossible to enforce!! (Canada does not have the global might and heft to “force” countries into submission, like the United States does!!).
Canada, is, after all one the biggest money laundering capitals of the world with all kinds of Ponzi schemes perpetrated on a daily basis by Chinese and other unscrupulous immigrants, on a daily basis, and the government is totally impotent to stop it!!
What about US/Canadian/Mexican passport holders? What happens when they employ their Canadian or Mexican passports arriving in JFK after coming back from a trip from say, Europe? Could this be an issue if they are US citizens?
Thanks Andrew
Canada's the best place for a boring mediocre life with bad weather half the year. My dad always called it "The Suburbs of the World" and I left at 25 to Eastern Europe and never look back.
What country do you advise?
This is one of the accurate and humorous descriptions. Well said dad.
I left Canada at the same age. Asia and Europe have too much to offer. Unless making $50k CAD, paying high taxes and not being able to grow a sizeable business sounds like fun, Canada isn't worth it
At first glance, it might seem that way. But those who know how to use the Canadian passport STRATEGICALLY, it can be a BIG win. The biggest asset you have in the Canadian citizenship, is the ACCESS it gives you to the GREATEST country in the world, the one and only UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
The TN visa (based on the North American free trade agreement) gives you almost unrestricted access to live, work and do business in the US (as long as you are on the approved list of professional occupations, which is fairly extensive).
You do not have to jump through ANY of the insane hoops that people from other countries (like the H1-b visa) have to, to be able to work in the US! Besides the H1-b has a max validity of 6 years. After that you can never work in the US again, whereas the TN is INDEFINITELY renewable!
Funny how the formerly repressed communist Eastern Europe is looking more free in some places
Should I pay 60% tax and have to memorize a new set of never ending gender pronouns?
Succinctly said Kent. I’m neck deep in the sewage rolling out of Ottawa. Canada is a horrifying place folks.
Well said!
Making $800 a month in their home country vs making $4-5k a month (and most likely 10 - 30 percent less hours) in Canada. Not to mention safety issues. Earning a more stable currency most likely. Lots of reasons to go to Canada.
The gender pronoun thing is far down the list of priorities for someone in that situation.
If I could get off North American soil on a one way ticket…without the jab, it would of been done by now!
True :)
As long as Justin Turdoo is in power don't do it!
Lol, I receive ads on RUclips about migrating to Canada.
the options can be confusing even if you're dreaming, but this one is an easy 'no'
A lot of people here are against Canada but let me tell you something, Holding a passport is very different from actually living in Canada. Remember Canada doesn’t tax your worldwide income unlike the US as long as you report to CRA as a non resident and show that you’re really a “non resident”. I don’t think Citizenship based taxation is gonna come anytime soon in Canada imo but considering this gal has a US & Israel passports he/she can just renounce the Canadian citizenship once the time comes.
That will change soon.
Don’t forget to bring a fat wallet!

If you're not a like minded socialist, Canada will be a great disappointment to you. Mexico is the better option if you can get over the language barrier.
Mexisco ???
Personally, I would move to someplace like Portugal. Much better and developed infrastructure, and so on! And possibly an even lower cost of living than Mexico.
@@747-pilot Portugal is just a little cheaper than Spain and of course more expensive than Mexico. Its infrastructure is one of the worsts in Western Europe. Mexico is on its way to have better infrastructure than Portugal if it doesnt have it yet.
I speak fluent Spanish so that's not a problem, the people seem nice great weather, the crime seems to be over blown by the media. So I do suggest mexico it's cheaper and easier to get in to as long as you find a nice place that is

If you live in Canada, you should absolutely get citizenship, otherwise I find Canadian and American citizenship are treated pretty much equally overseas (both extremely well). Plus, with the Nexus card, and the express entry into the US you get with it, it doesn't make any difference (unless of course you live in either country).
I love reading the comments here. I don't feel like I'm going crazy 🤪
Jajaja .. igual yo.
Alberta doesn’t have PST, you’ll just have to worry about GST. But the cost of living is a little higher, maybe not as high as high tax states so I can’t comment on that.
I have dual citizenship already from birth my dad is Egyptian and my mom is American I have contemplated getting a 3rd citizenship or permenent residency because I travel a lot.
I and my family are based in France and we have recently gotten permanent resident status in Canada. we plan to travel to Canada with our three kids in July for about a couple of months to get our PR card and basically discover Canada a bit.
We might end up not staying and will probably head back to France.
I fear that in Canada, we would have to start afresh in our careers plus the taxes are high I hear. I also do not believe that the Canadian healthcare is as good as the French healthcare system.
taxes are similar to Europe tbh, France also has high taxes but the salaries are higher in Canada. He is talking mainly to the ultra rich but for everyone else, Canada is still a good option
Well, no, Canada does NOT have a residency requirement past the moment you apply for citizenship, so there is not a single reason why not take it. As was said before, Canada does not tax globally, unlike US, so for someone who lives neither in US nor in Canada, Canadian passport is better. Compared to Israel - it depends. There are cases when an Israeli citizen is ineligible for Israeli passport when living abroad. No such cases in Canada. So it could be the case that the Canadian passport is the best of the three for a global citizen.
This is cool
I have the similar question about citizenship in Sweden,
And
Do Sweden allow 3 (triple) citizenship?
@Defund Dan why not?
I like the vibe of that country, I have already got the temporary residence permit, I will see if I can build a good career with a better lifestyle. Plus Sweden provides lots of incentives from the government for future families.
hi Andrew! do Canada and Israel tax their citizen on its worldwide income? how about what is the tax system on this two countries?

@@Lina-vm1hm Been down here for going on three months and haven’t felt threaten once. Mexicans are really nice people. No pressure re. Vax or wearing masks.

This lady (masked) struck up a conversation with us which quickly turned to, “you are vaxxed, aren’t you.” When we said no, she freaked out. No Mexican would ever be that rude!
My mom is an American born to Canadian parents. But she never got her Canadian citizenship in time before they changed the citizenship by descent rules. Too bad for me.
But it's a solid warning for anyone who has a chance now at a citizenship they may want it later.

I know people in the same situation as this guy. He mentions having permanent residency and being able to apply for citizenship, which means that he already put in the time. For monetary/taxation reasons, I do not see any advantages in having Canadian citizenship on top of the 2 he already has. Canadian taxes are higher than US , and cost of living there is high as well. Some low income Americans love Canada because of the FREE health care, but your channel is for Rich people who can certainly afford a good US health insurance.

Ireland's passport is the best (functionally in the EU). They still have rights to freely live and work in UK. Still in the EU and have access to EEA nations + Switzerland. If you ever need to renounce your UK citizenship, Irish citizenship would save your behind!

Canada is an interesting play.

Both countries impose world wide income tax and give u credit for either country where u pay tax, the US tax is far less expensive compared to Canada, but Canada has a better overall health system not requiring insurance like in the US.

Short answer; No. And I am a Canadian citizen.
In Canada people are super taxed everything you buy in Quebec province you pay 15% at check out and it's getting worst! don't go there the country changed so much!
do you mean pay 15% more than actual price ?

Canada is a great country if you have no income, no skills, and are a member of a privileged identity group. Everything is free and you don't need to work. Canada is a welfare state not just to its own residents, but to the rest of the world. Of course, nothing is really free. Taxes are sky high and government money printing is out of control. Canada is well on the way to becoming Venezuela North. It wasn't always this way. Canada reached its greatest prosperity in 2014 and then a far left government took over. Object lesson in political risk. For people thinking of moving to Canada, make a donation to your favorite charity instead. Your money will be better spent.
Well said!
As a Canadian, i say no. Im considering rescinding it. Already talk in Canada of taxing non resident citizens.
A s-hole country without any TEETH, like Canada, might bring in those rules, but they will never be able to enforce it around the world. The US can bully other countries into submission, is because it is the world’s super power!
@@747-pilot i disagree. All it takes is the offer to reciprocate in kind for other countries. But enforcement doesn't even matter if they make the penalty a potential jail sentence. No one's going to risk it unless you aren't going back in which case you might as well rescind.
