I'm Canadian, can confirm everything you say is true. Appreciate the honesty to your viewers.

Canadian here who had previously lived in Taichung before moving back to Canada.

Everything you said here is 100% true. Trying times indeed.

I wish I could work and live in Taiwan. I’m from Canada and know EXACTLY what you are talking about with snow.
I tried to explain my dislike of snow to my friends in Wuxi.
Words cannot adequately describe how much the cold effects the Canadian mindset.

Hi Prozzie I am a native Taichung-ner who had lived in Vancouver for more than 10 years, finished college there and got Canadian citizenship, moved back to Taichung 12 years ago. All the points you raised are so true. Canada was much better in the 90's when I first moved there, things were more affordable and there was more resources available for every one, but nowadays it has lots of problems mainly due to Trudeau's idiotic policies. Insane housing prices, thus-comparably low average income, insufficient medical resources, drug problems, brainless wokeness...etc. Another thing is Asia is simply MUCH MORE FUN. In Taiwan you can go visit exotic places such as Japan, Korea and other places in Asia (even China if you feel extra adventurous) with ease. In Canada where can you go? Drive down to the States where the culture is basically the same? You made the right choice coming to Asia!

I am 55 yr old Canadian, generational for decades. You nailed this. No one seems to be listening to this critical truthful information. I would move instantly. Can’t afford that either.

As a Taiwanese who immigrated to Canada (Vancouver) almost 20 years ago, It’s very interesting to hear a Canada born Canadian talk about liking to live in Taiwan, as almost every factor you mentioned is total opposite situation in my case——ex. I like snow and skiing, no matter how cold and how it adversely affected traffic etc; also, Vancouver weather is really comfortable, which is why I have NEVER been back to Taiwan ever since I escaped 20 years ago from that miserable hot/cold and humid weather; as to driving, I actually prefer to own a car instead of taking public transit, no matter how much the cost is, just because driving my own car is highly convenient and comfortable, so I actually still drove car to anywhere back in Taiwan, no matter what public transit is available.

I totally agree that snow isn't all that romantic, particularly when you're stuck in it while trying to get home. A 30 minute drive home turned into a 5 hour white-knuckle roller coaster ride, no thanks.

During the epidemic, I went to Canada to study, and now I am living in Canada after graduating. After the epidemic, I can see that prices continue to rise, with a large number of immigrants pouring into Canada, especially Indians. When I first arrived in Canada, there would be no one playing loud music in the park. Now many times there are Indians playing Indian music in the park. Don't get me wrong; I am not discriminating against them. Lastly is about opportunities - as a person with a Master's degree in CS, it took me six months to find a suitable job in Canada. Previously working in Hong Kong, where I changed jobs three times and never took more than two months to find new employment each time; job opportunities are very scarce and competitive in Canada. When I finish this job, I will definitely return to Asia.

in reference to your comments at 2:45 its not incumbent fatigue he literally is directly making living costs worse it can be proven, even CBC is admitting his policies are failing. People are sick of him because he controls a lot of levers that could make things better and doesnt. I talk about it on my channel, cool you found a new life in taiwan for me I am looking at japan.

I've been living in the US, New Zealand, and Australia for over 20 years combined, and eventually I decided to move back to Taiwan. Taiwan is probably the most affordable developed nation in the world, and the pace and convenience is second to none. I can totally understand why you prefer to live in Taiwan over Canada, after living in Taichung for the past 12 years or so.
However, there are two things that Taiwan has a long way to catch up compared to other peers of developed nations: traffic and education. If these two things don't bother you as much, or don't affect your lifestyle much, Taiwan is a great place to live.

我真心覺得 你騎摩托車技術真的非常好！ 有台灣人的味道。尤其你的前方視野 就是鑽。你得到台灣真傳！

Good video I'm Canadian, but worked from 1998 to 2014 in Taichung in the materials/electronics industry. Married a Taiwanese girl and have two boys both born in Taichung. Now in Canada there is a sad feeling that has overcome the country. Canadians like to compare themselves to Americans and as long as we feel that we have a comparable living standard everyone is happy. Our bragging rights were always a similar standard of living plus universal health care and a relatively low crime. The health care now in Canada has become almost useless, crime has sky-rocked, and our standard of living has fallen well behind America. And of course it's still cold as hell here in the winter and we're overtaxed. It's a sad situation for a country full of very smart hard working educated people. Yes the current idiot in charge is a lot to blame, but this situation has been decades in the making by successively bad governments.

I had taught English in Taiwan for over 10 years, and the bad thing is that you don’t save much money if you live like a typical foreigner: eat out often and hang out with friends. Many don’t invest, so it’s hard to save for retirement. I moved back to Canada for 3 years, and I’ve saved more than I did in the 10 years in Taiwan due to investments in Canadian real estate appreciation and US stocks. I’ll have enough to retire in Taiwan in 5 years… a more exciting life

Once again, your translator did an awesome job.😀 I really enjoy her translation. It's 神翻譯 and at the same time 接地氣. 😀

不是特意的要講到對岸
只要被對岸大量移民的地方真的都很慘
30年前，台灣香港都喜歡移民到溫哥華
但是大陸人大量移民後開始了他們的奇怪手段
然後就是大量的住民移出，更多的大陸人移入
最後就是靠人數掌控了小地方
掌控很多小地方後就開始影響了全國政治

Nice vlog mate, the frequency of your vids is getting better

[Tozzy]

Everything you've said regarding housing and cost of living etc. is also the same in Australia right now. We're in a crisis regarding both. Getting into the property market has never been more out of reach for many. Rent prices and interest rates are out of control too ... Its f×kd

[cathymitchell]

As someone who grew up in Taiwan, lived in Canada for 10 years, and now resides in Australia, I completely relate to what you said about snow (I used to live in Toronto). Dealing with snow can be really inconvenient; I dislike waking up in the morning and finding the driveway covered with snow. Snow on the road is always dirty – we always need to wash the car underneath, or it will eventually rust because of the salt. One year, I forgot to empty the water from the pipe in the backyard, and my basement flooded when spring came because the water inside the pipe froze to ice, burst the pipe during winter, and melted when the weather warmed up.

Sydney, where I live now, is in a similar situation in terms of housing prices and the rental market to Canada. With the rising mortgage interest rates, more people can't afford to pay their mortgages and have to sell their property. This has caused high demand in the rental housing market and, subsequently, high rent. It's just a vicious cycle.

When I first moved to Sydney, I was surprised to learn that houses in Australia do not have basements like in Canada. They also do not have a central air conditioning system.

My husband has only been to Taiwan three times, but he loves the country so much that he keeps asking me about moving there. However, it's not just the two of us - we also have school-age kids, so it's not as simple as it would be for singles or couples without children. There are many things to consider before making such a big decision.

Ive been living in Canada for almost 3 decades. Canada is not yet a third world country but it's becoming one. Most people here can see that it is a sinking ship. I am considering going back to Taiwan.
