Think Twice before moving to Calgary | Cons of Calgary 🇨🇦 | Gursahib Singh Canada

Publicado 2022-09-08
In this video, I share some things which may prevent you from moving to Calgary. Although it has been by positioned at top spot by Forbes in the list of 'Best Cities to Live in Canada', however there are some cons of Calgary as well.

So, if you are panning to come to Canada as an International Student or as Permanent Resident, I hope this video will be useful for you in some way or the other.

    I can agree with all the points you have mentioned. Every city comes with pros and cons, we have to see what we are willing to compromise.

    One thing no youtuber mentioned when I moved from GTA is how lonely and quiet Calgary is. Apart from NE and downtown, rest of Calgary seems like a country even though it's not. I do delivery jobs in the evening and trust me when I say this. In 4 hours, i don't even see 40 people in total.

    With all honesty, as a person who lived in Calgary, Kelowna and Vancouver - jobs situation has been improving with diversification, agree that it’s still not comparable with Vancouver and Toronto. Yes Calgary is dry, don’t quiet agree with drivability or extreme cold - I feel these are common in other places too. I don’t also agree with the need for having other cities close by. In fact, it’s actually good that Calgary entirely is as a city and it’s quiet large. Food options are limited as population is exponentially less, if you compare per capita - it’s quiet diverse. Agree with closing of stores early. Me being a pahaad person, I’m cool with Calgary, but agree with your point about not having beaches. There are some lakeside beaches like slave lake but not too many options. Agree we are trying to help others with negative points in Calgary - good video nevertheless, just sharing my views.

    Please make same type of videos for other provinces too. I want a separate video for al the provinces, thankyou so much!
  • Your videos are so informative 👏🏻 👌 🙌🏻 And your voice is itself A vibe ✨
  • Gursahib Singh Veer, I don’t agree with many of your comments about Calgary. Calgary is world’s 3rd best city to live in. Calgary metropolitan area has 1.5 million people: 1) Jobs: Almost all of Canada’s oil and gas companies have headquarters in Calgary. IT is growing quickly here. Amazon is opening first cloud computing hub in Calgary for western Canada. Infosys is going to open its Canadian headquarters in Calgary soon. 2. Calgary’s average high temperature in winters is 0 degrees Celsius which is same as Toronto. Calgary gets same amount of snow as Toronto. Calgary gets warm chinook winds in winter which frequently turn temperature to plus five to eight nine degrees. Yes, Calgary weather is dry but that’s why you won’t feel as much cold in winters and not as much hot and humid like Toronto. 3. Calgary has lot of warehouses and distribution centers, thanks to its unique central location in western Canada. 4. Calgary has diverse population with over 35% people of color. Food options are as good as any other metropolitan city. In fact Calgary has more than 5900 restaurants operating. 5. Yes, Toronto has beaches on Great Lakes but Calgary is so close to beautiful hundreds of kilometers mountains and national parks.
  • Bro your video is totally focussed towards job related in IT and Finance which are abundance in Ontario. In contrast, Calgary and Edmonton also offers various different types of jobs in sectors like Oil, tourism, etc. If you consider jobs to population ratio , and affordability ,Calgary is best in Canada in big cities. Here you don’t need jobs like 150 k to buy a house, 90, 100 k family income is enough, where in Toronto and Vancouver, even 200 k is not enough to buy a house. Maybe you can just afford a condo there. Some of your videos have lot of research but this one has lot of misinformation.

    1- Limited Job opportunities compare to big cities like GTA, But you can get remote jobs as well. 2- Weather is dry, Temperature is largely unpredictable and Winter is cold with heavy snowfall. 3- No big city around Calgary unlike GTA 4- Less diversity and less food choices 5- Limited availability of service, everything closes around 10 pm. No cabs or food at later hours. 6- Mountaious landscape, no beaches near by.

    one question for study and then settling - what would you say is better below 👇? #Smaller #city and medium university ranking or lets say like the top University with GRE required for MBA and high cost with the top major cities, famous University and give the GRE GMAT and try for it ?? OR .. the ones without test scores and slightly more easy and faster admission and lower cost and not so famous locations ? Also IS CITIES like Toronto Vancouver Ontario more important or even any other places in Canada like #Vancouver #island or #Calgary or London like VIU, TRU, RRU kind of good options and locations ? Like what's the best decision and should be tried FIRST and much better overall as option to try first? Doesn't the name of university become a very big deal in Canada etc for jobs and other aspects ? SECONDLY IMPORTANTLY what you feel ? Your impression is - #USA still BETTER Bhai Jaan or #CANADA and why what do you think ? Should one try MASTERS in USA first if possible to get admission or Canada is the 1st choice clearly ? Please answer in detail if possible ..Long 🙏 question ⁉️ daal diya bhai jaan
