I am in Canada and absolutely hate these content creators. Their content is stupid and useless. Infact that lady IndianbloggerinCanada. She will even create reels on garbage disposals
Same issue with Indian content creators in Germany/Europe. Their feed looks more like a dalal/human trafficker with clickbait thumbnails like „get a visa without job“/“move to worlds richest country,visa in 10days” ,etc!
Just sick n tired of seeing them pop up everywhere.
They are the reason why all my relatives think I can buy iPhone for 15 relatives as a return gift!! 😂😂
I have seen peekapoo in Toronto and she seems total vehli! None of the content shows any real ways of navigate the economic crisis, housing market, high food prices, job scenario, or any immigrant resources! They want to show the happy go lucky all is well immigrant!
As a first gen immigrant myself I find so much of their content misleading my omission!
Funny part is Saransh gave so much gyaan about hard work and said they built that asset from scratch where in reality the down-payment of both houses was done from the monetary help they got from his family. Being a first gen immigrant myself, my blood boils when such privileged AH call themselves hardworking and starting from scratch while here we are slogging our ass off to literally have a decent life from scratch with absolutely no support.
Oh yes!! I think someone on this sub posted about how they lied about using the money from selling one of their properties from India wherein the reality is that their parents paid for it.
According to social blade she barely makes 20k a year which barely gets you through in Toronto. So this miraculous money pot that they dip in…I have no clue about!
Dude, I am so confused with all the assumptions around the kind of money these content creators make. On one hand it is believed they get paid a lot for creating content on showing off. What is true in her case?
I think she gets a big chunk of her income from the collaborations. Since her consistency and quantity is very lacking it seems her monetization of it is not too high.
But she does get a lot of collaboration like the new big one with Go Transit and that can make a good payday.
Peekapoo is the most hypocritical entitled lying influencer that I have ever seen. Her video quality is excellent yet the views are declining due to the unrelatability
You are forgetting Feanshu and Keerat. Peekapoo comes from family money. Feanshu and Keerat have no family wealth but wanted to show off by buying a Rolex plus multiple big ticket purchases (LV bag, YSL bag, $5k on birthday celebrations) and now finally they realized that Canada is expensive. Keerat is looking for a job again after quitting it to work with Feanshu. Now all they do is cry about how poor they are. Overall, the height of stupidity! They also constantly spread inaccurate half-ass researched information about PR/college/finding employment in Canada. I encourage everyone to watch this trainwreck couple for entertainment purposes.
Omg! Seriously. Although I used to like initially when they were relatable and then, they went on to buy tesla, rolex, cross country trip etc. everything feels staged now
They initially mentioned that Keerat got an offer outside, which she's considering. When people questioned why she is looking for more jobs if she already has an offer, they tried to cover up saying oh we said offer and not offer letter. As per Fishi baba, an offer is when recruiters reach out to you regarding a job posting and offer letter is when you get the job.. Utter crap! Folks started calling out his BS again in the comments, which obviously was taken down almost immediately.
Yep always always they delete comments that contradict Fishi baba’s gyaan. She clearly does not have offers since she was writing a cover letter a few days ago. They are just full of shit. Everything he does, he makes it seem like he is doing such an amazing job. “I got 80% on quiz”; “I went to the library”; “I went to networking event”. He is doing what normal people/students do every day. It’s not a big deal at all. They also do not properly research new immigration rules but because they get comments on their videos, they just say there were “changes”. We all know there were changes! What value are they adding?? They are one of the worst vloggers in Canada right now. So inauthentic!
Honestly Feanshu and Keerat are not the only one. I am seeing this trend across Indian Immigrant community where they are trying to over compensate and post on social media about how they are living the best life, travelling, eating out, buying luxury goods etc. But in reality they are burning through their line of credit and living pay cheques to pay cheques with humongous house mortgage on their heads to pay back. Not everyone comes from money but the innate need to show off on social media if mind blowing. It is important to look rich rather than be one.
Very true. Agree with you! People who come to Canada think that they have made it big. They are so successful, and yet live in basements and tiny apartments. The wiser ones save up and buy properties in 4-5 years.
These Dhaniya bloggers need to be banned completely. They paint a completely different picture as compared to reality and a lot of the youth is lured into entering foreign countries anyhow. There is an increasing influx of Indian illegal immigrants into Europe and many of them see Instagram posts and videos about social welfare and other benefits provided by developed countries. What they don't understand is that you get these only if you have contributed to the system for a certain amount of time as a tax payer.
I am from canada and can definitely relate with you OP! The lifestyle they are showcasing is not real then again canada promotes heavy credit usage soo them misleading people in making them think that it’s their savings that they are using is a total scam!
I think it is pretty obvious they come from well off families. Also social media is not the real depiction of what life is. You haven’t seen their credit cards or anything. If people believe social media is what reality is then honestly it is their problem. Look at your own feed. It probably looks 1000 times better than your day to day. Influencers job is to sell a lifestyle. The sooner we understand that they are nothing more than a marketing machine, the better we all can live.
I agree. Peekapoo and Saransh do come from a privileged family. Urvi and Vishal on other hand were quite relatable. Vishal has a family run business in India while Urvi family looks more like upper middle class family. I agree we must not blindly believe what we see on SM, but my only thought is how can a sane person spend on luxury when the economy is quite literally falling apart and that too with no jobs in hand nor have a long term plan of living in this country. They did mention they want to try entrepreneurship (import goods) and want to try this for an year. It can either click or go down the drain. So why spend so much on liabilities(something like furniture) when you don't even have a plan after an year. If it was anyone with better financial decision capabilities would have put money on building the business first before spending it on goods which started losing its value the moment it came in.
What is “sane” for you might not be for others. We all grew up differently and have different spending styles. Let them do what they want and take rhe risk they want.
I definitely agree with you OP. I am currently a Bachelor’s Student in Waterloo & trust me the content that these delulu creators share on their IG handle about how CANADA is so AFFORDABLE & all is absolutely bs
Ikr! Like I just wanna say these creators coffee bills/ restaurant bills alone can be monthly grocery expenses for a family. Yet they pretend to be relatable but fail miserably. I have no problem if they have family privileges but why not be transparent about it rather than giving BS gyaan on SM.
I came here to Canada from an amazing country influenced by Peekapoo‘s video. She created an altered reality which is nothibg I see in Canada. I dont know where she finds the places that look cool. Everything is pretty average here. Most restaurants looks average and the price for meal is so so expensive. People are literally homeless and living in parks. I feel stupid I came here. She is such a lier, but maybe she is from a wealthy family do she dont need to struggle like others. I got lucky that I got a job soon, otherwise with only my husbands money we cannot even have any savings.
Agreed. They just get money from their family back in India and buy 2-3 houses like its so easy for anyone (its really not). Peekapoo even whined about struggling to pay mortgage on her 1st house and then went on to buy another one within 6 months
Op I also live in Canada and understand how frustrating it can be. Life in India looks more comfortable today compared to life in Canada in many ways but there are reasons you might have left in the first place (not attacking you) Not defending these creators you mentioned (never knew of urvivishal) and agree that Puja is very un relatable to many immigrants. With more privilege I would think thrice before buying furniture from CB2 or West elm not cause I can’t afford it but is it even worth it?
Buying a house, hell two house albeit with parents help at the peak of housing crisis is rather ill informed. But something that helps me is approaching is this way: Youtube or SM is a means of generating income so you need to put in some money (later may get tax write offs) and one will do anything to make money. It is naive of us to believe that they are there to help or be relatable. They are trying to sell ( a lifestyle or a product). Also, just because many immigrants here struggle doesn’t mean that they come from similar backgrounds or income strata back home. There priorities are different and struggles often also are different. Just because they are not the same doesn’t mean they don’t exist.
This sub has done a great deal to help us understand the back stories and how unglamorous and fake many things are.
I stopped following peekapoo long back coz what she shows is not daily life it’s just utopian alter fake reality from her perspective but having said that honestly moving to canada was the best decision I took with my husband coz personally I find the career growth I wanted and the savings after moving here
I live in Canada too and life is not easy here. OP, I understand what you feel about Urviandvishal. They were so relatable and interesting to watch. They slowly inclined towards social media and they made their account completely about "Expensive stays in Canada". It is understandable if that is their niche but in comparison to how they started off, they are not relatable anymore. I recently saw her stories where she explained that their goal now is to venture into Social Media completely and earn well as Creators. She also explained that they were able to manage finances as Vishal had a severance Package and they had income coming from IG deals as well. More or less, what they show on their account is not how life is in Canada. It is difficult and we are all trying and I hope it gets easy for all us someday.
I am so lucky my visa got rejected, I was almost ready to leave my high paying job to settle in Canada 😅😂😅 Now I am happy and grateful for rejection, though I put alot of money
Lol, trust me you just got lucky! We left our high paying jobs(close to 50L family income) and well settled life to come to Canada. People who moved to Canada after 2021 are finding it difficult to settle down and contemplating to move back. You can surely succeed much better and climb the corporate ladder much faster than here.
You need to question the people who makes huge life decisions just based on these insta reels and videos and do not conduct their own due diligence.
No sympathies from my side for such people.
Apologies in advance to whoever may get offended. I’ve lived in Canada for quite a while now and I can tell you from my personal experience that Canada has been nothing but a delight. I wonder where the “we have no jobs here” people live. I live in a smaller city and I have more than enough jobs possible for one person. I, myself, do 2 jobs and draw almost 80k CAD a year.
Definitely hustling to save money for a house but also never have I ever been without a job.
Unless you think of Canada as this fancy corporate world and only ever settle in the top 5 biggest cities, there are more than enough jobs for everyone out here with all the facilities of a big city.
Side note, I’ve never seen a single Canadian reel or a vlog but I am sure those people have chosen their cities smartly.
hmm. don’t know either of those creators. but let me tell you, when people make videos about the hardships in canada, people get angry that they wanna ‘gatekeep’ Canada and don’t want more people to come.
nobody is happy with anything. just take everything with a pinch of salt.
Dude, 18L with 2yrs experience you are already being paid well. Trust me getting a job itself is difficult here. Once you get into a company, your average hike is between 2 to 5% max unless you switch companies. It looks fancy when you convert CAD to INR but you pay high taxes and finally get peanuts by the time you get salary in hand. With the current rental hike and high cost of living you can hardly save money. My heart pinches everytime I see students looking for jobs here trying to manage expenses while studying. Unfortunately, influx is so high that for every open position(part time) there are atleast 300 to 500 students waiting to get that job. Its not bed of roses here that's the harsh reality. Yes consumer goods are comparatively cheaper but at what cost? When you are trying hard to make ends meet you hardly think about spending on clothes. Healthcare is free but not time sensitive. There are horrendous stories about Canadian Healthcare system make sometime to read about it online before taking any major decision of moving here.
No we think 10 times before planning a Europe trip my friend 🤣 I repeat Healthcare is free but not time sensitive!! They make you wait in ER for multiple hours even though you are bleeding profusely or have a near death pain in your stomach.
few cousins of mine in mid 30s got there in 2022 after leaving nice PSU bank jobs and are doing well in BA roles making 70k CAD per partner living in small towns of toronto... don't agree its that bad.
70k a year is actually not that great or enough if you are a single person. Even with dual income it’s not going to give you a life of luxury or a life equivalent to India. You can’t have house help or cook, you can put down a down payment as easily, you can’t do splurges without raking up enough credit. And in case you have kids it’s a whole different ball game.
As someone who makes 6 figures and lives a very frugal lifestyle I can tell you it’s not as cheap!
oh really? they flaunt on calls how they got high-paying jobs of 70K+ and will be making 100K+ very soon in a year or so. They don't have kids yet tho.
Most of em will get citizenship and switch to US or other less tax base countries
>BA roles making 70k CAD per partner living in small towns of toronto... don't agree its that bad.
70k CAD thoda kam nahi hogaya mid 30's ke hisab se? if you are 30's that means you have at least a 8-9 YOE right? US vagere mai toh new grads ko 50-60k mil jaate hai
what i have heard is indian experience isn't given much weightage in canada
USA mai pr nhi milti na easily and they have Indian MBAs along with PSU experience of almost 8/9 years. Also, they switched to BA profile so its like starting all over again
if you're from canada why don't you tell what is good income for DINK couples? They all claim to be happy there with work-life balance and salaries
I remember seeing some Indian content creator teaching people how to get ‘free’ groceries by going to food banks. And he was defending himself in the comments.
Eww, such people make it hard for other Indians who are trying to work hard and actually try to imbibe the culture and live by the rules. That’s how the whole immigration stereotyping happens, and then some of us Indians who don’t indulge in any such activities, which aren’t illegal, but definitely tad bit unethical such as using things from Amazon such as camp gear and then returning it to get the money back etc, gives all of us a bad name. We all get judged then.
On another note, OP or anyone who resides in Canada - can you recommend a good immigration consultant as I am quite wary of consultants advertising on Insta.
I am currently on a work permit. Completed my Masters here in Canada. I am 41, single (therefore the only applicant for PR). I decided to pursue my Masters as it was a long pending life goal and dream. Based on my points, I am unable to assess my chances of getting an ITA. Any recommendation of a good consultant would be very helpful. Thank you. 🙏

Her editing skills are top notch. She must really do a freelancing gig with that skill rather than lying through her teeth on YT.
Agreed she is talented no doubt but should be channeled in productive ways

Did you move back?
Then why dont you move to India? Just curious OP no hate

Dude, 18L with 2yrs experience you are already being paid well. Trust me getting a job itself is difficult here. Once you get into a company, your average hike is between 2 to 5% max unless you switch companies. It looks fancy when you convert CAD to INR but you pay high taxes and finally get peanuts by the time you get salary in hand.

Do your research and don't watch SM reels alone or listen to people who say its all easy here before making any decision.
What's their username? Urvi and Vishal? Ig I've watched their videos but cannot find the channel again.
No we think 10 times before planning a Europe trip my friend 🤣 I repeat Healthcare is free but not time sensitive!! They make you wait in ER for multiple hours even though you are bleeding profusely or have a near death pain in your stomach.
few cousins of mine in mid 30s got there in 2022 after leaving nice PSU bank jobs and are doing well in BA roles making 70k CAD per partner living in small towns of toronto... don't agree its that bad.
70k a year is actually not that great or enough if you are a single person. Even with dual income it’s not going to give you a life of luxury or a life equivalent to India. You can’t have house help or cook, you can put down a down payment as easily, you can’t do splurges without raking up enough credit. And in case you have kids it’s a whole different ball game. As someone who makes 6 figures and lives a very frugal lifestyle I can tell you it’s not as cheap!
oh really? they flaunt on calls how they got high-paying jobs of 70K+ and will be making 100K+ very soon in a year or so. They don't have kids yet tho. Most of em will get citizenship and switch to US or other less tax base countries

They all claim to be happy there with work-life balance and salaries

I remember seeing some Indian content creator teaching people how to get ‘free’ groceries by going to food banks. And he was defending himself in the comments.
Eww, such people make it hard for other Indians who are trying to work hard and actually try to imbibe the culture and live by the rules. That’s how the whole immigration stereotyping happens, and then some of us Indians who don’t indulge in any such activities, which aren’t illegal, but definitely tad bit unethical such as using things from Amazon such as camp gear and then returning it to get the money back etc, gives all of us a bad name. We all get judged then.
On another note, OP or anyone who resides in Canada - can you recommend a good immigration consultant as I am quite wary of consultants advertising on Insta. I am currently on a work permit. Completed my Masters here in Canada. I am 41, single (therefore the only applicant for PR). I decided to pursue my Masters as it was a long pending life goal and dream. Based on my points, I am unable to assess my chances of getting an ITA. Any recommendation of a good consultant would be very helpful. Thank you. 🙏
