LAST CHANCE TO LEAVE: Canada's Stay or Pay TAX 

Thanks to his government everyone wants to leave.

It's getting a visa, so difficult. Would live to .ive to US.

This place is hell.

We have been wintering in Florida for the last 14 years. We both grew up in and have strong ties to Canada. If the current government gets back in ,we will leave for sure. Hopefully the common sense conservatives will win a majority. The LNDP coalition has done a lot of damage and it will take decades to fix their mess.

We immigrated from France in 2012 and until the cov we were very happy in AB even if it had already changed since our arrival everything was fine, then we lost everything!!! Now we'd like to move to FL or TX, but my husband is an electrician and we don't see any job offers or they sponsor us for a visa and we don't have a cent to come as investors! In conclusion, we left family and friends to give our children a better future, and in the end we led them straight to a communist country !!

I can't put into print what I feel about Canada under the current dictatorship. It is hell.

As far as I am concerned, $25,000 to leave Canada?? Worth every penny.

wow. not a good look for the country

Human rights nightmare in axis canda

Don't leave full time . Always keep a small place here with a mailing address so you go on a long vacation come back and then go on another vacation

I think it is not right we have paid tax on that money already when we earn it

Indian are not leaving Canada for sure because I see more and more Indian from India in my least popular City in Canada, that’s said enough how attractive Canada is for migrants let alone leaving 😂

There is no tax currently when you leave Canada. Unless you own real estate you need to do what is called a deemed disposition

This whole thing is not confirmed at all. It's just a paragraph that was tweeted. Anyone could have written it. It could be a complete hoax. 3:57 You don't pay departure tax on cash. The tax is on unrealized gains on assets that you haven't sold. You're taxed as if you had sold them and then reacquired them immediately. If you sell all your assets for cash, then you avoid the departure tax, but you'll have to pay capital gains tax anyway, but at least you'll have the cash to pay the tax with. The issue is of course that if you don't sell your assets before you leave, you might not have the cash to pay the tax.

Government should do that people love Canada but not to leave, but instead they try to punish who do not agree with policy

People please becareful writing your ideas here on how to getaway from their entrapment because they will find out and will try to somehow stop it.

Source of that info? "Trust me, dude".

Well I’m moving to another country and the government is charging me a 25 percent withholding taxes on my pensions I can’t afford to stay in when I retire and now the government is taxing me even though I will not be using any of Canada services yet increasing my taxes sounds more like a dictatorship not a free democracy !

The Berlin wall 2.0

Canada needs to join US. But US want Canada? Lots of issues with Canada that are not good.

A friend of mine is having it so hard in Montreal. He doesn't believe me when I tell him he would have a better life in Asia or in Africa. Many Canadians think that way. So what is the problem? Is Canada not one of the best country in the world?🤐🤐🤐

This post is bull crap.

Well, obviously he needs every cent of tax dollars, because of his reckless spending.

Im leaving next year Nightmare need to be over in this country Texsas only

Heh, so only the poor can leave. NICE! I'm freee!!!!!

Vote Trudeau out...!!

if i was incharge i would do the reverse giving bonus to leave as there is a housing services and all crisis and al cant get these

I've no idea how they'd enforce that on people like myself, fuck starting from nothing can be done anywhere

Im confused - Do you have to give up your Canadian citizenship and pay 25k TO finish paying taxes in Canada ? Where are we allowed dual citizsneship and not owe taxes to Canada when we dont even live in Canada ? Would it be better to , for example , own a house - rent out rooms ( in canada ) and live off the $3000/month for example and live somewhere in Costa Rica and " visit " every six months to restart thr visitors visa , but keep your taxes low in Canada since the rental income would be your only income ( but enougb to live off in a handful of places ,lime Thailand for example...)?

Isn't this kinda North Koreaish?

Canadafornia

It will take 50 yrs yo Fix Canada!!!!! I'm gone gone gone!!!!

Oh wow ... Mattemy left? or is there.?.. wild! good for them.. i've been having the feeling to go since last year .. being so rushed and by myself I have no idea where I want to go and isn't really adventatious for me to go to the US and others seem to do or love? so its scary when its faster than you want... I dont even own paintings or next to no jewlery and I read on certain things you have to pay for things you have sold? I dont get how it works. then want to Ding you more as you leave? I dont even have $25000 to my name..... let alone an additional ontop of whatever else..... what a STRANGE world. To think we live where they won't let you leave? how ABUSIVE essentially. If this was a relationship .. why ? aren't they happy about all the ILLEGALS here? thats what they wanted? so what do they expect?

Never have all your eggs in one basket….establish an address in another country and open another bank account….simple. Use a relative’s address and start syphoning off your soon to be worthless Canadian currency.

that is extortion

And Canada is different from North Korea how at this point??

Misleading info from a rank amature and liberal hater.

Great video and so much more informative then most of the issue.thank you for your patriotism.

That is misleading information. You don't have to pay departure tax. You have to pay taxes on your income and capital gains or non-residence tax if you depart for a good county in the first part of the year. That is the same in USA it EU. If you planning to depart then plan in advance with licenced account.

And yr worried about the Hells Angel s

Thank you for this update!!

..lemme get my tiny violin out

This is BS FJT time for trudeau to leave and we will bill him millions and then double it.

Its not cheap living in the US

I’m not surprised something freeland would be brewing

1942 germany did the same thing it was roughly 2 years pay in tax to leave. i only make 22k a year if i didnt eat for 4 years i still couldnt afford to leave. why do you think persecuted germans stayed when it got worse and worse and worse.....

Leave

Can you provide a link to the article you referenced

boring

If Trump wins, I'll be looking to move to Canada. Can you pay to get a Canadian passport? I could bring a good bit of money in.

Canada Wall ?

so besides the 25k of bullshit, is there a tax on leaving now? like income tax penalty? egress tax?

I’m sure all the immigrants here shipping money to their families has absolutely nothing to do with it. Let’s blame companies. 😂😒🙂‍↔️

We now have in place who you voted. Has it been any better since the last 8 years? I would like to know 1 thing that has been done to improve my quality/standard of life. Someone/anyone have an answer?

The penalty tax is well worth escaping Canada. You will pay much more if you stay 😢

You wouldn’t be going through Canadian customs on your way out.

Does this apply for the average citizen with no business?

@All - I wonder who conspired all of this? Choose wisely.

id be good to leave they are actually paying me my income is tax free so me filing every 2 years is just to keep up to date to avoid an audit and to collect 2 years of gst and carbon rebates

$25,000 is cheap to get the Hell out of here !

Fake news

I hate my govt,but I don't want to hate Canada.

Proud to be a damn American where at least I know I’m freeeeeeeeee yeeehaw

I live in Canada ( born here ) and I would love to live in the u.K. There's really no british culture here. I have no idea what to do for work. . I don't want to come back... besides billions of people want to live in this country.What the hell is there problem.

Steven. Paisano. Are you an accountant.

Why is it the problem for people to leave, they are replacing them with immigrants, or the problem is the new immigrants don’t want to work so they cannot be taxed?

So what would happen if we don’t have this new tax money? Does CRA and Immigration ban you from leaving? Do I need to cross the border illegally? Dig a tunnel under the border? Cross over the Rosemount crossing going the other way?

The US taxes you forever if you work abroad so a one time payment seems better than an ongoing tax bill. Or you have to give up your US citizenship. Don’t have to do that in Canada. Yeah it sucks but it’s not unusual compared to the US.

What specifically is the tax on? Is it on your home equity?, just on the individuals?, or on assets onwed besides home equity? This could be another video.

Want to go to Russia

What about remittances

Frightening

Apparently this already exists in the USA, so technically nothing new.

I am First Nation person and don't pay tax as I am tax free under United Nations as indegenous person. Why then would I have to pay tax?

Thank you Steven, for sharing this.

Absolutely false!

This isn’t real

Wait for poilievre

Chinada!
