    This person titles their book “do not move to Canada”, then immediately goes on to say that the book isn’t about telling you not to move to Canada, but about the problems he had living there.

    The first two available chapters of the book are full of grammatical and spelling mistakes…fine, the author is russian, but how about having someone proof read the book first?

    It’s 9.99 but the author states it can be read in one to two hours. That price is bonkers. Supposedly YouTube comments by people claiming to have made the same or similar experiences are why reading the book is worth it.

    There is an overarching message here, which I can agree with: never romanticise another country as some utopian paradise. It’s highly unlikely that such a place even exists. The world is a neoliberal, capitalist hellscape, where some places suck ever so slightly less because rich people have been somewhat reigned in by the rule of law, but the differences between countries are minor at best.
