Canada boasts the 9th largest economy, pristine environmental standards, a robust legal framework, universal healthcare, world class education, and numerous other amenities. Despite all of this, Canada's happiness index has plummeted to its lowest point in almost a decade.
In this documentary, we delve into the root causes of this decline: the affordability crisis. From the housing crisis and declining economic productivity to the impacts of carbon pricing and rising food expenses, we unpack the many challenges confronting everyday Canadians.

01:01 - Chapter 1: Housing and Rental Crisis
07:20 - Chapter 2: Food and Gas Prices
10:50 - Chapter 3: Declining Economic Productivity

I came to this country in 2016 as a newcomer, and still remember the street are clean, people are nice, neighbourhood (even in downtown Toronto) are safe. Everything changed after COVID. Now Toronto is worse than a third world country: homeless people everywhere; parks (that's fucking Queen's Park just located next to the Provincial assembly) that used to be a place for people picnicing became drug addict's camp and filled with homeless people; streets are unsafe, i can commonly see people doing crack on street. Condo renting price is insane, 1 bed bedroom that used to be $1500 now comes to $2500. Everything is expensive but the quality are shit! New grads even from top-tier univeristy (UofT, Waterloo, Western) desperately applied for 100+ corporate jobs and never heard back, yet the streets are filled with "international students" on bike becoming Uber driver. And I saw our beloved surpreme leader JT now spending millions of dollars on some nonsense social justice program, and increasing the tax. Why the hell our country be like this?

The huge problem is Canada is the lack of competition. You can open a shitty restaurant chain like cactus club in vancouver, or a shitty coffee chain like blenz and still be a multi million dollar corparation. Yet you pay insane prices to go to these places. For instance in major cities like Istanbul, London, new york etc yes, you pay crazy prices but you are also eating at the best of the best in the world. The level of mediocrity is insane in Canada that charge insane prices.

This really is 100% because of government regulations/taxes/red tape. Big businesses love these as they can absorb these costs while smaller competators cannot, and it creates a huge barrier to entry for potential new competators. Many critics have voiced breaking up companies that have these huge market shares, but it would only be putting a band-aid on a gaping wound. Canada must cut taxes, re-regulate, and slash spending.

@@drzerogi Big businesses rule, that isn't something confined to Canada. Canada already has an incredibly low corporate tax rate, effectively 15% vs the US 21%. How much lower do you want it to go? As for regulations, which ones need to go? Do tell...
@drzerogi
@drzerogi Месяц назад
​@@ahhmm5381 No, big businesses do not rule, the government rules. Government that pass laws benifiting big business do so for their own benefit. If the government - or particular politicans and administrators in governemnt - didn't personally gain from these kinds of laws and regulations, they would not pass them. The government wields the hammer, not big businesses. I find it odd that you meantion corporate taxes, but to be fair, my comment was focused on the commerse side of things. Although I'm not against cutting corporate taxes, that isn't what I would suggest to address this issue at all. As for taxes, I would cut property taxes. Canada has one of the most highest property taxes in the world and it's on the rise. I'd cut income taxes too. (Yes, these taxes effect the business sector too, as it is difficult for people to start new businesses when their income is bogged-down by high taxes) As for red-tape and regulation, that varies across industires and markets and provinces. But for starters, the cost of business licences should be cut. Also, all rent control laws should be abolished. Rent control disincentivises potential enterpreneurs from constructing new housing, not only causing stortages, but it actually makes it more difficult for affordable housing to be available. In addition, the approval process to build in Canada is way too long, often taking years to complete: this also discourages businesses from building, especially when prices for building materials isn't stable (which is the case today). This is part of the red tape that needs to be slashed. There is much more that needs to be done, but I'm not writing an essay for you.
@ahhmm5381
@ahhmm5381 Месяц назад
​@@drzerogi How does lowering the corporate tax rate benefit the government? Or allowing the Rogers-Shaw merger? High property taxes seems more a symptom of high property values as opposed to the actual tax rate. Sure, you could lower the tax rate, but this doesn't solve the bigger issue of ludicrous property valuations, which totally bars young people from owning any property. As for business licenses, aren't these usually 200 - 800$/yr? Is this really that backbreaking? Removing rent control will solve nothing. It is already gone for new buildings in Ontario you know. No developer profits from a glut in housing, only the consumer. It is the government that needs to build affordable housing, as was done in the post-war period I do agree the approval process is kinda nuts in some municipalities. Cities also have horrible single family zoning rules that needs to change.

Here is the crux as I feel about it : Canada saw US making serious headways in growth due to its immigration policy. However, US scrutnizes like crazy whom they let in. They are very meticulous in drawing guidelines and reviewing them as to who comes in. And have been so for quite a while ! Contrast this to Canada who has been letting just about anybody in, and add to that allow them to launder money. Many of the heavy corrupt players from Russia, China and around the world saw Canada (UK and others) as a perfect haven. Bring in the worst of the worst into your shores, accept all the blood money they got to invest in housing and other sectors,, and you are handcrafting a 'crisis to be' !

Canada hid its inflation in the housing market for a decade. The economy appeared to be growing, and real wages appeared to be staying in line with the consumer price index, but it was smoke and mirrors. If you removed real estate, GDP was stagnant. Wages were actually falling behind and people getting poorer and poorer without realising it. That’s finally become unsustainable, and inflation is showing up everywhere. And the wages are still stuck. The country is sitting on hugely valuable resources it could develop had it not put so many self-created political barriers in the way, and having indoctrinated their population about it along the way. Separately, The healthcare system is getting worse, consistently ranking 2nd last in the OECD in terms of real results delivered. The biggest problem is that the country’s economy is built on immigration to drive growth, rather than productivity, efficiency, or innovation. The more people you bring in, the more housing you need, but they’re at the point that they can’t keep up and people can hardly afford housing anyways. It’s a recipe for disaster. I left Canada by coincidence, having met someone from another country and moved there. I’m glad I left.

What do you mean by “real estate”? Not enough houses are bing built more so than anything. As for the natural resources that’s actually a problem because it removes investment in tech which is bad for long term growth. Additionally the resource sector is growing. For heath care on performance Canada tanks 8th of performance (ahead of France and the US). The reason housing is more expensive is due to inadequate supply as housing increasingly becomes an investment vehicle instead of a consumable, more so than increased demand. The immigration is not the problem, the lack of investment especially in tech is the problem. Canada need to strengthen intellectual property rights to help fix this, and provide additional incentives.

​@maryanchabursky9148 Real Estate has spiked because Canada has courted and received significant foreign investment. Same as London, Kleptocracies like Russia and the Middle East transfer wealth out of their own countries and purchase housing, driving the cost up for citizens. Immigration undeniably also increases demand for limited supply. That's a basic reality. More people in, more property needed.

Born and raised Canadian and lived 22 years of my life in Canada. Left Canada in 2005 and till this date, zero regrets. I went for an academic internship in 2004 during my Bachelor's in Electrical Engineering to University of Texas Austin. A professor offered me a position in his research lab for master's, so it was more like studying in US free of cost and earning monthly stipend for doing research. I never considered this as permanent move but quality of research I did in US, the opportunities and salary I received I could never imagine that in Canada. I am still in touch with my university friends in Canada work at low wages on obsolete tech stuff, with no innovation at work. Many of them want to move to the US, but for 10+ years they worked on outdated stuff, so they cannot compete with the talent pool in US. Even in 2004, I remember healthcare being bad and I keep hearing stories about how worse it has become. In US, I am covered by a good health insurance, I had surgeries for myself and my kids, and we never had any issues. Honestly, I can no longer trust Canadian healthcare with insane wait times for my kids safety.

There are lots of aspects of life that will be generally easier in the US, but health care is not one of them. A quick story: I live in the suburbs of Toronto. Last year I was given a "FIT" test (to screen for colon cancer), which was abnormal so a colonoscopy was warranted, which revealed a malignant mass, which was biopsied, ultimately revealing I had colon cancer. Within a week I had a CT scan to ensure the cancer was only in my colon and, less than three weeks later, surgery (right hemicolectomy). So the total wait time was extremely reasonable. I mentioned this to a very close friend of mine. He is a doctor, practicing in Virginia. He was amazed that I had no symptoms yet it was detected, and all my tests and surgery didn't cost a cent, and that it was taken care of so quickly. Maybe your insurance would have covered you too, but that certainly wouldn't be the case for every barista and Walmart greeter in the US. And it would be hard to get any surgery scheduled faster than that, in any country. By the way, since last week I'm cancer free for one year! WooT!!! Go, Canada ... now if I could be as enthusiastic about everything else up here! I will be retiring in 8 months, and moving stateside.

The worse part of Canada is that Canadian homeowners have to renew their mortgages after 5 years on average. Meaning the sub 3% rates that were acquired during the Covid years will balloon to the new 7% to 8% rates. That's wild anxiety for Canadian homeowners!

The Economics Explained RU-vid channel summarized Canada's malaise: 1. Housing and rental costs are high, which means that businesses have to pay more money in rent, which otherwise could have gone to employee skills training, or investment in equipment/ innovation. 2. The expensive housing market is so lucrative that investors prefer to invest in housing than in businesses. This increases housing prices, and also denies businesses capital so they have trouble growing. 3. Highly-skilled workers who innovate and expand businesses, creating new jobs and growing the economy, will find better-paying jobs in the US, and leave Canada.

Twenty years ago I left Canada and boy am I glad I did so. The country has turned into a disaster unless you're rich. The obsene house and rental prices are obviously the result of gross mismanagement. I mean, the government employs economists who should be able to advise that too many buyers and too few houses is going to lead to major trouble. A rich country with so much land should not have this problem. When it comes to gas prices, Canadians have to drive some of the longest distances in the world and are forced to pay such high gas prices. Since there is almost no public transportation, what choice to people have but drive. Regarding the grocery situation, allowing a handful of massive companies hold Canadians ransom is complete bullshit. This is where the government needs to do something to rein in this behavior. Obviously people need to eat but allowing these companies to rake in obsene profits because of this basic need is a crime. I hate the idea of a PC government, but the Liberals have definitely failed.

As an international student going to Vancouver for university back in 2013, it was already bad then. I was astounded how many old buildings in Downtown Vancouver were being demolished in lieu of new land for apartment towers that promised "affordable housing" for the neighbourhood's old displaced residents, students or low income families. And yet these projects would end up being being rented out at a premium. Lots of shiny glass-fronted buildings for the few who could afford a place in them. Eventually I was lucky to find a basement studio south of the city center. After months of struggling to juggle my university expenses, services and rent (and the rain!) I couldn't take it anymore and noped out back to my country to finish my studies. Stupidly enough too, my parents and I got a student loan from my country's government by mortgaging our house to the bank (horrible idea, I regret it every day) to go to study to Canada in the first place. I didn't use it all up, but long story short I'm now paying that loan back monthly. Still: even having to pay a monthly mortgage to recover the family home, it's still WAY cheaper than the total cost of living per month in Vancouver. Hell, it's even cheaper that just the rent by itself - and I'm talking about 2013 prices for a basement studio in the suburbs. Funny how life's plans change, in this case for the better (or at least making it not as bad as it would've been otherwise). My country might be a mess of it's own too, but I'm constantly thankful I'm not in BC anymore - even more so now that it's gotten worse. The city and Canada in general are beautiful, it's just that the "living" there isn't really living at all.

Correction: Vancouver, while facing extreme difficulties due to a lack of affordable high-density housing, is doing a LOT to try and fix this in comparison to other cities in the infrastructure sector. Just over the last couple years, we've had some pretty extreme zoning policy changes, we have a yearly rent increase cap (which backfires once tenants move out, but that's another story) and we're building new transit infrastructure which now, legally, requires only high-density housing build in the surrounding areas. The population growth here has wildly exceeded the amount of housing growth in the last few decades. Not to mention the insufficient wages, high cost of living and a broken healthcare system. Our people are struggling but if you have to live in a city right now, I'd choose the greater Vancouver area. Down the road, I see us improving the most infrastructure-wise out of any Canadian city, which will hopefully benefit social sectors as well.

Same and the only reason he got reelected was he scared everyone into thinking the Conservatives were going to take away your "rights". Stressing about gender ideology in schools is the privilege of a first world country. As homelessness increases and less food and heat available no one is gonna give a f*** whether they feel born in the wrong body. They will be so caught up on survival. It was classic politics and an issue for distraction from the actual issues of not having resources for everyone. Trudeau is just the face of it all. Don't let him divide us. We all need to look out for each other as life gets harder.

@@kimhong3573 Despite having multiple parties, the majority of Canadians feel that the decision is between the liberal government and the conservative government.

But in 2018, I did a research trip to Vancouver and Toronto to scout out the place and talk to friends living there, and realised just from a few anecdotes that with the comparatively higher income taxes, lower salaries and higher housing prices (compared to subsidised public housing in SG, private housing in SG is still out of my reach) that I really was better off where I am. Not to mention the stagnating and less diverse economy, un-progressive tax system would penalise a single working female like me.

Canada was only colonized by the Europeans for one reason: making money. There's not much here otherwise to attract people. It's too cold in most parts of the country for large-scale settlement, which was apparent even to the first French explorers. But there were extractable resources like furs and timber from which wealth could be made. And that's the dark secret behind Canada: it's a place where the profit motive rules all activity. The only reason nobody noticed this was because the original British settlers were less diverse than the groups that settled the States or Australia, and this gave the Dominion a progressive veneer owing to their cultural cohesion. Those British colonists were mostly Quakers, well known for being more sanguine about profit than other Christians, which dovetailed nicely with British investment in Canadian industries. What's changed is that extraction isn't as profitable anymore because most Canadian industries face heavy competition in their main USA and European markets from other countries. Now, the only lucrative extractable resource is consumption within Canada. Why were four million immigrants brought to Canada? Because they would work the same jobs as native Canadians for lower wages, and therefore would part with larger quantities of the profits of their productivity. Why are rents skyrocketing?Because they offer attractive returns for very little investment. Money laundering? Ditto. And oligolistic market capture is also very profitable. Canada isn't a "post-national" state. It is a colonial remnant dominated by a small, incestuous elite of property owners and money fund managers, abetted by a gold digger Canadian government whose stinginess would ashame both Mr. Krabs and Scrooge McDuck. Changing from the Liberals and Justin Trudeau to the Tories and Pierre Poilievre isn't going to change this and will actually make things worse. Canada has an existential problem without an easy solution.

Canada may not be going through the best times, but this video is oddly biased and contains some misinformation. 1) Right from the start, the first 15 seconds aren't 100% clear or transparent. While people in Canada do vote in federal elections, they are not voting directly for the Prime Minister. They are voting for Members of Parliament (MPs) from various political parties. The leader of the party that can command the confidence of the majority of MPs in the House of Commons becomes the Prime Minister. So it's not like people vote for one man, and that man then is solely responsible for everything good or bad. 2) Then you point at Sean Fraser with the "this guy" caption. This guy only recently became a housing minister, less than a year ago, you know. There's a whole government, and ministers change; it's not like some minister was "under-investing" for years. That's not how it works. And this new guy actually already negotiated a $4 billion investment for 750 thousand homes. I am not judging if that's enough or not, but it doesn't look like "nothing has been done" either. 3) Not everyone wants to buy a home... in Austin, TX. That's why the price difference. Similarly, there are lots of places in Canada where houses are way more affordable than in Austin. No one forces anybody to live in Vancouver or Toronto! House prices are influenced by supply and demand dynamics mainly. Take any other major big city in the world - same situation or worse. 4) Immigration is required to cover labor shortages (not only in Vancouver) and maintain the growth of economics (and create more jobs subsequently). Reducing immigration levels might alleviate housing pressure only marginally and it's unlikely to solve the housing crisis. Also, many people don't realize that without immigration, economic growth could stagnate, leading to fewer jobs and increased poverty, despite potentially lower housing prices. And who would build more houses if there's no demand? 5) As for the carbon tax - people get rebates. Hundreds of dollars as direct payment from the government. On a regular basis. So no need to complain about the carbon tax; that thing is quite balanced now. 6) Now about those banking fees compared to the UK and Australia. I can't say anything about the UK, but in Australia, banks seem to be way more greedy. In Canada, you can get 2-5% cashback on groceries, gas, etc. I'm talking unlimited cashback. And what about the banking fees? Typically a $16 CAD/month fee which is usually COMPLETELY WAIVED if you keep money in their savings account. Now go try to find something similar in Australia. You'd be surprised. Cashback is usually tiny and limited there.

The government initially attempted to shift blame onto provinces and educational institutions, but it's taking steps now. The government's response is to cut down on international students by 35% and temporary workers by 19%, while also focusing on building more housing. But, that's not gonna happen overnight. These steps could have been taken earlier so I agree, it seems like a miscalculation. It will be all right eventually, I don't think the 'this country is doomed' vibe is justified.

This is a little disingenuous. When the narrator says "Canada" he is really saying "Ontario." Housing prices in Montreal and Quebec city are still affordable you do not need an annual income of $170k, sure they're getting expensive. But they aren't even close to what people pay in Vancouver or Toronto. Same goes for Alberta, Manitoba and Saskatchewan, housing prices are more expensive than they were pre Covid, but they aren't even close to what the narrator is stating and you don't need an annual income of $170,000. The only exception is when the narrator says "the average Canadian income is $70,000" this is true, but then he compares the annual income to property prices of Ontario and BC. All that being said, Canada is significantly worse off than it was 8 years ago before the Trudeau Government. Life all over the country is significantly more difficult and the overall cost of living is unreasonable.

My father bought his small home for 55k in 1996. It's valued at a starting bid of 170k right now. He could easily get over 250k for it. In Montreal, a similar house in a similar neighbourhood is around 350k. There's already too many people fighting for a roof over their heads, and Trudeau brought in a MILLION migrants in the last 2 years alone. Nothing he does helps us. Housing prices straight up doubled even after factoring in the inflation over the years. The last time things were this bad was when Trudeau's father was prime minister, and it has gone WAY beyond the last price spike. I'm just about done with this damned country.

This is not a BC/ON only problem. In Nova Scotia, vacancy rates are frequently below 1%, which has led to a rampant renoviction crisis that often sees rental prices jump 100% between tenants. The average cost of rent for a one-bedroom apartment in Halifax is about $2,100. If we take the common advice that your rent should be about 30% of your income, a person would need a salary of $84,000 to hit that target. However, the average salary in Halifax is ~$60,000, meaning the average full-time worker would need to get a 40% raise just to afford to live alone in a small apartment. Meanwhile, the city is full of construction of new luxury condos that will not be of any use to the majority of the population.

Came here about 8 years ago from eastern Europe. Love it in Canada! It's not perfect, but again no country is. We enjoy the easy-going people, the feeling of freedom, and access to good jobs (doing much better economically than back in the old country) and the multi-cultural atmosphere . Many thanks to kind, open-minded Canadians who have made us feel at home.

Yeah I immigrated to Canada too, about 15 years ago. Loved it the first 10 years, then it all sucked. Canadians are as kind as they are stupid. And that stupidity is what led them to be where they are now. Glad I skipped ship when I did, otherwise I would have been stuck. I appreciate the passport, though. Only useful thing from Canada these days.

We are from Eastern Europe, too. This video is accurate, and Canada is much worse than when we came 8 years ago. However, I will be forever grateful to Canada, as I could earn enough money to open my own business and buy a townhouse, which would be impossible for me in Poland.I would never learn so much about other cultures and try food from around the world.

I've lived in Canada my whole life and I've never been hurting so bad. Example... I got my auto renewal and it more than doubled! $300/month for a Honda CRV!! I've got air tags on it, a club on the steering wheel and it's parked in my garage as I work from home. Unbelievable!!

One news says everyone is leaving Canada and no one wants to live here anymore. Another news says so many people want to come here desperately, especially international students, who would do anything to stay and make a living in this country. Same with USA, so many Americans are leaving the country too and yet the border is flooded with people more than ever.
