Would You Live In This Small City In Saskatchewan? | Canadian Real Estate For Under $100K?! 

I despise Walmart, and the Conservative governments that made it possible for American corporations to do just as you said, and rip out the heart and soul of the entire Canadian economy. It was done by elimating laws and regulations, which created a free for all for the American corporations. The process that occurred is most immediately visible in the retail sector, which has been completely decimated, first by Walmart, and then by many others. And now they are packing up in places, leaving a void that was created by the massive number of bankruptcies, big and small, and now can't be filled by any Canadian companies. SO MANY thousands of companies, big and small, went broke! Because FIRA (the Foreign Investment Review Agency) having been eliminated, it no longer controlled who can come into Canada. The Combines Investigation Act was also chopped, so nothing prevents monopolies now. And the laws against predatory pricing were also eliminated. In a 1, 2, 3 blow, the American conglomerates were allowed to come in, with their predatory pricing, and they wiped out literally HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF CANADIAN JOBS! And the pensions that the low paid retail workers had planned to rely on were also wiped out, mostly stolen by the bankrupt companies, like Sears, Hudson's Bay, Eatons, Woolworths, Woolco, Zellers, Gambles, and so many more I can't remember them all, literally thousands of stores and chains all went broke over a 10 year period, including all pharmacies in existence at that time. The American businesses which took over the country are a LOT MORE than just retail stores. Among other things, nearly the entire oil industry has been sold off to Americans, and Alberta gave them massive incentives to take it, like 100% tax breaks, interest free loans, loan guarantees, gifted land, relaxed regulations, etc. Huge areas of contaminated land are just sitting here, with no remediation done at all, while companies took the money and ran. To cover their butts, the Separatists of the Alberta govt are STILL blaming Trudeau's dad for a contract that their own beloved Peter Lougheed signed FIFTY YEARS AGO! Never mind the Saudis and their market manipulations, they think they need to "own the libs", and the Liberals are an easy target because they are in power. They are arrogant and incompetent in many ways. But the Conservatives are intentionally blind, and they are hiding their own blame, for conspiring with the federal Tories in selling nearly Canada's entire economy off to the US. The American companies, which are often disguised as being Canadian, even with the word Canada or Canadian in their name, do provide some very poor quality jobs, but all of the profits go south. Blind, right wing, "free market" ideology, with no regard what-so-ever for how things work in the real world, has absolutely destroyed our retail and many other sectors. What if the US orders all their companies out at once? Or if even just one company, like Wal-Mart, were to close all their stores? It would be catastrophic. Perhaps an opportunity in the long run, but at what cost? The revamping of the shopping centres and real estate to conform to the American style of retail has cost many millions, but created soul-less landscapes that only those who are very healthy and wealthy can navigate successfully, with a car. Bus stops are miles apart, and VERY far from the stores. Streets have become so depressingly identical, with all the American companies on them, that it's so easy to get lost. Canada as we knew it is gone. I could go on for an hour about this, but I have to go somewhere, so I'll end my rant here, but I am in complete agreement with you!

was it easy to find a job ? an appartement ? im a construction painter and wish to stay there. from Montreal too ;)

@@DOM_4GOOD He was on CFB. He probably already had one.🤣

what is CFB ? @@ItsNotMeItsYou007

MJ is a unique and neat place

❤❤❤❤

Yes please! Comming from Toronto, Im yearning for peace and quiet🌷🙏

Gotta love the over tax and under pay nothing like sask 😂

@@Thebohemiangirl1 Saskatchewan would drive you bonkers! It's pretty, but deadly boring! Just imagine what it was like BEFORE the internet!

Thank you very much!

​@@AlinaMcleod Hi ❤

I think all canadian cities are clean and tidy.

@@keangwooichoo6138not true at all

it's because they haven't been exposed to diversity yet.

Yes. I can imagine the shock! And the boredom and frustration! Wow!

Online shopping killed the mall

One thing I think killed the mall , most of what the mall stores sell is not any necessity. For your daily needs you can go to Canadian tire , no frills , co-op , Peavey mart , marks work warehouse or if absolutely needed 😢 Walmart I cannot remember the last time I was in the local mall , it's been years . And the only business I can think of that I would use is "the source"

Nobody likes malls except for old people & teens

Don't come to the prairies dude. You sound like a woose.

Awesome, thank you!

Glad you enjoyed it!

Now THERE is a perfect place to live! I would give up everything for a tiny cabin there, and I plan to do exactly that!

That’s awesome!

We are looking at relocating to melfort for a new start and better oppurtunities.

My pleasure!

And no stoners asleep on the sidewalk. Yeh, the work may be hard, but it could be worth it.

Nice and clean because it is still white. Once the immigrants move in they will destroy it.

My pleasure!

Reminds me I always wonder about families with small children in Toronto. Maybe escape is just not an option.

​@@AlinaMcleodHello Alina, could you please share any emergency medicine relief service available in this town or any other town for which you have created a video?

@@dhavalu1 they have a hospital with doctors and nurses

And what are another places pls??

Aw that's awesome! I haven't been to Wakaw in a very long time

I lived in Melfort and Tisdale back in the 90s. Wonderful places to live! Maybe you can tour Tisdale next?

That’s fair. It is sad that smaller centres all over Canada are disappearing more and more.

@@AlinaMcleodThat is true. From what I’ve heard, it’s worse in the Maritimes than in the Prairies.

🇹🇭🙏me to🥰

filipinas are very beautiful women..love them don from swift current and winnipeg

I once supervised an immigrant who experienced his first northern winter and couldn't believe the cold. He pretty quickly fled to Texas.

Ok...that's one opinion and you have that right. I was born and raised in Regina and I think Sask is a horrible province to live. It's got horrible winters, my friends 12 year old sister froze to death not 6 feet from the back door of her home. Pick up a Regina newspaper and all you read is about football all summer and curling all winter. Serious boring. In Regina, every failed grocery store gets turned into a Bingo Parlor. And it's the worst labor union province I've ever lived in. And don't get me started on crime rates around all the native reserves...Just say NO......

@@maxxomega6599 Hmm. Heard similar opinions from all sorts of people in North America. Now Alina buys a ticket to the affordable SE Asia in winter, taking her dad along. I was going to tag some video with a comment that former British colonies all have trouble falling for right wing disinformation. Look at the trouble in India, South Africa, and UK itself. All in one form of misery or another. Consider Norway with its giant sovereign fund that serves the people. No English history (since Harald Hardrade got kicked out of England). English origins are a poison pill. You're doomed.

Cities have nothing good to offer anyone.

Haha absolutely fair! And yes, great to be in a smaller center but access to bigger cities!

There are plenty of similar Prairie towns around Edmonton, Calgary and Winnipeg. You just have to know what you’re looking for. Edit: Forgot about the -10C requirement. You might want to try a smaller town in the Texas Triangle. Especially one close to SA, Houston or Austin.

Sorry to hear that is going on. The winters are rough, but if you have a good house and vehicle it makes it more tolerable.

You sound like a bozo who gets angry at the clouds as well

I take it you've wised up and stopped voting Democrat...

​@@janellek21you love your guns and school shootings yank

It’s the same in most places in sask due to native reserves all around these cities or towns. The crime is thru the roof the violence is crazy. If you still can Google the shootings there you will see. And you cant defend yourself with a gun in Canada. There was a farmer that tried and was charged even tho it was a clearly self defence. You move to sask you must accept half your things will be gone and you can’t do anything about it. It’s sad as it’s pretty there but staying overnight is a check on the vehicle every 30 min. Hubby grew up there to

Food selection isn’t as varied as big cities of course and food prices are a bit more expensive on a whole because there’s less competition. But the low real estate more than makes up for it.

@@AlinaMcleod Never mind 'varied foods' as long as they are healthy foods?

@@AlinaMcleod thank you Alina!! Keep those videos coming

That's awesome, hope it goes well!

​@@AlinaMcleodI need your guidance plz

I hope you get to visit sometime!

Thank you so much!

Well if you can tolerate the insane winters, might be worth the move :)

My father was was born in Spalding Or Anaheim back in the early ‘40’s.

My pleasure!
