There’s no doubt that Canada is an expensive country to live in. The housing market is super hot right now, and everyday necessities like groceries, insurance and childcare and all pretty pricey. So, can you even survive in Canada on minimum wage?

In this video we’ll also give you some tips for saving money in Canada, and they might come in handy when you see how hard it is to live on the minimum wage!

—————About Canada Top to Bottom —————

Canada Top to Bottom is your go-to place for all things Canadian! Whether it’s actionable advice on how to move to Canada, deciding where to live in Canada, or things to know before immigrating to Canada, we’ve got you covered.

We (Charlie and Sharon - the people on the videos!) moved to Canada right in the middle of the Covid-19 pandemic through the Federal Skilled Worker Express Entry system, so we’ve been through the immigration process ourselves and - thanks to a global pandemic - our moving process took longer than expected and presented far more challenges than we’d hoped for! We now want to pass on our knowledge about Canadian immigration, and tell you everything you’ve ever wanted to know about life in Canada.
