Until 2020 (pandemic), most Canadians would have proudly & quickly said Canada is a great place. For multiple generations (young & old). It still is in many ways. But like all countries, a bunch of things have made life more difficult lately. During the COVID lockdowns, many people in apartments (or major cities) went nuts wanting to buy homes everywhere (urban & rural). Increasing demand and rising prices. Not long after, inflation caused mortgage rates especially to rise. Rent costs have soared too. People interested in working in hospitals declined. Less doctors etc.. Simultaneously in Canada, the number of people coming by air, land and boat to claim asylum SKYROCKETED. For example, in 2023 alone, in just one region (Ontario) around 275 people arrived per day (on average). Ditto for other populated provinces. Also the number of international students skyrocketed too. Averaging around 1,096 per day in 2023 alone. Hospitals then hit with many wanting free healthcare. Less doctors/nurses etc., means greater waiting times. A severe housing crisis has occurred in many western countries including in Canada. In ways not seen in people's lifetimes. The majority trying to migrate to Canada recently have been from South Asia. And it's become extremely obvious to Canadians. Even those that are very used to much diversity & many cultures. Unfortunately not all players have acted honestly over the years. False asylum claims. Foreign 'agents' deceiving students for $. Plus some Canadians, a portion with ties overseas, became greedy and started doing things to make $ off of people's desperation. Then this year throw in all the Palestinian vs Israeli angry protests happening regularly in cities. Plus the Sikh vs Hindu violence/extortion happening in Ontario and BC. All stemming from affairs in the Asian continent. Hate crimes went from rare to occasional. Canadians are not used to all this. So many, who have embraced multi-culturalism and immigration for decades are now worried and fearful (due to all of the above). And all are praying it doesn't turn into great anger (like in the USA). Canadians want multi-culturism to succeed … and for all people to be okay. Everyone I know is HAPPY with Canada Immigration's recent changes. Including multi-generation long-term Asian Canadians.

I came to Canada as a Student 11 years ago and things were better then but in the past 1-2 years I have been advocating to my friends/relatives who want to come to Canada to drop their dream and pursue some other country. Even if you do get a high-end paying job which top around $130k-$170k you won't qualify for a Loan to buy a House in this country, you will have to go to Sub-urban areas that are 1-2 hours of Work Commute to afford one and then too you would need a huge down-payment to afford a loan. Canadian Goverenment has made Immigration a business and they are bringing in around a million people yearly and making profits off them through Immigration Fees, 3-4 times Education fees, Rents, Taxes and making them work in super-low paying jobs (average salaries here are $30000 annually). And all this while the Infrasturcture is crumbling & owning a House is becoming a distant dream.

I can't tell you how many times a day people around me try to convince me that I'm making a mistake and should leave for Canada, or any other western country. While some of their reasoning may be logical, the vast amount seems like a mania to me. People have become brainwashed into thinking that going abroad is the only way to live a good life, when most of them in fact do have a decent life in their home country. The societal pressure on those deciding to stay at home to leave for abroad is truly unbelievable.

The student visa application form clearly says that a student visa is given on the basis that the student gets his education and comes back to home country. There is no guarantee that a masters in canada will result in a job in canada. Thats why it is essential that students do due diligence about the university from the university ranking websites and speak to college alumni. Also students have to remind themselves that they may have to look for jobs outside canada as well if things don't work out.

I have been in Canada for 17 years and things were so different in 2006. I have seen so many Indian students come and spend thousand of dollars in Canada and then their degrees are not even acknowledged by Canadian companies. These colleges are not well recognized and are not licensed by government or have any ratings. So basically you come all the way, spend money and go through hardships and then go back to India or drive Uber in Canada.

[@afdcg]

The problem isn't certificates. The truth is there aren't much jobs there. Even people with PR get rejected in the name of Canadian experience. All this crap happens when there are less or no jobs. I'm not saying this without proof. A few people from other countries also got coned by companies in the name of Canadian experience. The truth is they just wanted to hire White Canadians.

[@aceofspades1981]

I am not shocked or surprised with what ANI is trying to show here. Anyone with a little bit of common sense will know this reality. Not to be rude, but the universities these 2 folks are studying in are neither among any top college in Canada nor the courses they choose have much prospects. I see there is mostly a craze in northern India, specially places like Punjab, Haryana, Delhi etc to go and just settle abroad, like going to a foreign country is their ultimate goal and life would be like a fairy tale there. All colleges in the world showcase a rosy picture to attract students. It the duty of the students to do their due diligence to find out how these universities are in real. Problem is the expectation that life will just magically change when you go to a foreign country. You should only go abroad and study if it’s one of the top universities and you know you are a top talent, else prepare to throw your money down the drain. I have seen so many people over the years I met at work who studied abroad and came back to India to work after spending a bomb abroad on their study. Also there is always a hustle phase, where you need to compromise on your life. Even people who have jobs with a constant paycheck hustle with things like accommodation everywhere in the world. These 2 are just cribbing about the accommodations they got. I mean as a student where were you expecting to stay? Please come to Bangalore, Gurgaon and see the condition of PGs working IT folks are living in.

I live in Canada as an immigrant. Students who want to come here please listen. Do not fall for all the rosy pictures shown by the colleges. They just need your money. They are least concerned about you getting a job after studies. Most of the international students end up working in a field which is not related to their studies. The government and the colleges will never show you the true picture coz Canada runs on immigrants money. Immigration is the lifeline of Canada. Do not come here.

A non-Indian here of course. But I remember way back that student visas were only granted to those who could demonstrate they would be able to support themselves for the ENTIRETY of their course with a view to returning home after completion. Where I blame the Canadian government is making it easier for international students to gain PR once their course is complete - it has lead to an abuse of the student visa system with a lot of international students who technically cannot afford their courses hoping they can find an easier way to stay in Canada anyway. Now, looking at it from the side of a Canadian citizen, I simply cannot see a reason for, nor agree to taxpayer money being allocated to “help” international students from any country, nor the roll of universities or businesses to make life easier for them. All of the issues I saw in the video would be resolved if a student comes to Canada with enough money to cover tuition and living expenses. I’m sorry if you have been sold a lie, but maybe returning home is the best option for you.

[@gordonking9966]

I was a teacher at a community college for 32 years. When the Indian students started coming in droves the course was watered down, everyone passed and basically the diploma became worthless. Few if any of the internationals actually get jobs.. Just a note, the reason domestic students don't pay as much is because their families' tax dollars built that school so technically they own it.

[@jayashreesubramanian6040]

Really? Please! More Indian students go to the US, pass the rigorous standards with flying colors and end up as CEOs.

I wish I could have seen such material during that time and not have suffered mentally.

Indians are always pampered. So when you go to the west it requires a lot of independence that’s the real culture shock. It’s good to take it as a way to learn.

[@raghavnamasivayam8706]

Well are you indian in western country

[@aquamarine1253]

I came here a long time ago and I can tell you it’s very different from a country where I was born. The winters are harsh and you need to take steps to adapt. If there is no one guiding you you can easily get lost. Depends on what your end goal is. If you want to settle and do any type of work and work within debt/credit cards then yes you can make it. Otherwise if you want to be successful early and have savings then you should stay and find professional work or run a business etc in a less expensive country.

[@vinnyshama1066]

ANI - Thank you. Here is my 2 cents on thi - No way you can explain this simple things to Indians! For Indian's particularly Sikhs it matter of pride to out side India! They will be working in gas pump, stores, coffee shops, uber, security guards and even in escorts, massage parlour etc. all minimum paid jobs but they will not do same jobs in India! Visit any city and bus stations and you will Indians and Indians! There are so many colleges in Mississauga/Brampton and small cities. What is the value of this certificates and degrees? Agents are making money and parents throwing money in hope that 1 day the will also have good life! White skin spouse! Good life in Canada ask - Crumbling health care and public services, high taxes, high inflation, housing etc. Then why this students coming here? Simple - Back door immigration! They must ask questions-is t worth it? Is Canada worth it?

[@sukhvirsidhu2489]

Why have problem with sikhs,sikhs dont blame other community whether he or she is doing anything, atleast sikhs sikhs dont beg in canada or in india

[@estycki]

This already started bothering me as a student 12 years ago seeing these international students being promised "great opportunities"... I thought that was so irresponsible when even those of us who were born here are struggling to find entry level positions with a degree, then housing was sky rocketing every year. There were lucky few who got their dream. I also remember being on my way home from university stuck in a snowstorm and the buses stopped, good winter coat and boots were too expensive for me as a student, so all I had were light sneakers... I remember being so cold, tired, I wanted to cry.

[@AH-gl8ro]

In Canada the indian and pakistani immigrants are highly completely loosing everything in terms of saving , high expenses , high rents and salary has even become more competitive bcoz large chunk of immigrants have been given entry so supply of human resource is more then demand. Before it was skilled immigrants who used to go . Now there is a big chunk of students who are studying in University of canada and are ready to join the work force. So imagine how difficult it would be for job .

[@souravmohite4443]

Thank you ANI for bringing this up...Indian parents should realize how many difficulties are there and we can spent way less money in top Indian colleges and make a better future for themselves as well as for India...

[@loveleenmeyers6437]

Not only students, everyone is suffering here in Canada when it comes to housing cries and healthcare. It's close to impossible to have a family doctor and even if you get one you don't get an appointment right away. In case of major health issues such as cancer treatment and heart related problems you have to wait months for a specialist appointment before they can even start any sort of treatment ( my own sister had to fly to india to get a surgery done for cancer removal), in case your special needs children you have to wait years to get the treatments started, waiting time in hospitals can be upto 12 plus hours to see a doctor , not only rental prices are high but to buy a property is very expensive . Life here is not easy. If you have good job and good life in India you should think 10 times before you even think of coming here. I have been living here from 19 years and I am still struggling because the system is not right. It's a beautiful country and somewhat safe as well compare to India but life is very tough.

[@ladusingh2141]

You are really funny. First of all this is not even a documentary. Two upper caste losers are griping. These mediocre entitled like Jay Shah want everything delivered to them by papa. They got admission in small useless places. Like Saying Moradabad Yogi Politick Revadi Institute in Ghaziabad did not give me facilities and a job. These wasters thoguht they could use their caste privelege in Canada. They cant. Sanskari behaviour is not appreciated. You have to work hard and apply to the right palces like University of Toronto, or McGill or UBC. India under Modani is a joke. Only consultancies and part time low paying jobs are available. 40% of Indian graduate are unemployed. But you can hate muslims and beat up dalits and burn churches. If that makes you happy. Stay in India. But dont blame Canada .

The thing is that people in Canada have tried to showcase the ground reality to people thinking about moving here. However, what others and I have observed is that people don't want to listen. Most of the time people sitting in India will ask us why are we not moving back if we're so saf about it. They fail to consider that we have been here for 4-5-10 years, we're pretty settled but understand that newcomers are going to face significant issue in current economic and political climate.

Almost a year now in Canada. It really depends on the type of person you are, if you think you’ll have a good relaxing life in Canada by looking in the Internet you’ll have a hard reality check when you reach here like the girl on the video. But if you are an aspiring student, you choose a good university, right courses and programmes and really work hard and keep on learning and working on yourself everyday, this country will reward you, this is a really beautiful country. I love India as my country but Canada is a very meritocratic country, you get what you deserve on the amount of work you put in and I agree Canada has lots of problems right now but no country in this world is perfect, if you just focus on the negatives all you’ll see is flaws so you just need to have a positive perspective.

I have many friends in Georgia and it’s a great place to study MBBS , in the India the fees for private medical colleges is extremely high even more than places like Georgia . So how can normal people afford this ? It’s a complete mafiased system here , with 45 lakhs you can get a full education with EU recognition and you can practice there . Here per year the fees is 20L minimum, so 80 lakhs total. Also the total number of seats are extremely low in India as well , number of people are way higher so what will the rest of the people who don’t get government seats do if they don’t have money to pay for private ? Waste more years ?

It is tough. But a piece of advise to students - be ready for the struggle, go for international education only if you have sufficient funds and not opting for bank loans. A full course fee + at least 1 year of expenses should be arranged before going international. This will help you focus first on your studies and with time you will find a way to secure a job. If you get a mental disturbance due to low funds or other negatives, then you have simply wasted the amount.
