As someone who hired a bunch of recent grads in Canada, you couldn’t be more wrong in your assessment or in your conclusion, but, this is the internet so :shrugs:

In fact I would recommend you looking at other reddits that aren’t as bad of an echo chamber of whining — British Columbia , Coquitlam , Surrey , new Westminster

Reddit isn’t receipt, in fact is basically the opposite of signal. Go live in Amsterdam and draw your conclusions — I’ve lived around and know:work with people from all over

You're delusional. There are people like your friend in Australia moving to Canada for the same reason. Amsterdam has a wait list for one year for rental, there's zero availability, rents are through the rough and salary is way lo

Right, and most that I do know do consider, including people who migrated recently from other cities in the world -- Sydney/AUS, Madrid/Spain, SF/US, Lon/UK. So anecdotes vs anecdotes huh ? Have you read other reddits ?

It's just catching up with other big cities. Owning a house in London/UK, SF/US, SYDNEY/AUS etc. has been out of reach forever. Canada has a lot of challenges, as have other countries. Mediocre, rofl.

You can replace Vancouver with any other city and your post would remain the same. Again, go touch grass and plug out of reddit, that shit isn't good for your mental health. Vancouver is a WONDERFUL city by 99% of the world standard, t

What makes you think anyone works like that ? It’s crazy that agile people paint the rest of the world as if it was like that..
