Updated video! • CALGARY Q&A: Should yo...
This video is something a bit different - a life in Calgary Q&A! Grab yourself a cup of tea and join as I answer the questions you sent to my Instagram (@moseylifestyle) about life in Calgary. I grew up in BC and moved to Calgary 3 years ago. Here, I talk about why I chose Alberta over BC, my favourite spots in the city, things I miss about my hometown (Victoria, BC), how I've found the job market as someone working in marketing, if the winter is really so bad, and more!

Official questions start at 3:30 :) (before that I am sharing my story of how I ended up here!)
You definitely articulated Calgary well , after living here for just over a year I totally agree with all the viewpoints .
The food scene is pretty solid 💯
Glad I found this video! We’re migrating to Canada and moving to Calgary this November so thanks for sharing your experience. It’ll probably take some time for me to adjust to the cold weather but definitely excited.
Very exciting! That will definitely be a tough time of year to move just because it will be the start of winter, but there is lots to do indoors! And when summer arrives you’ll see how pretty all the nature is ☺️
Welcome to Calgary👏
Great video! Thank you for all of the info!
Glad it was helpful!!
Thank you for this positive insight of Calgary! Hopefully, things work out and I am able to move out there next year 🤞🏾
best of luck!! it's a great place to live
Thinking of moving here. Thanks for the great video!
Glad it was helpful! There’s an update version linked in the description box for this one as well, biggest change has been rent pricing is a lot higher 🙃
@@morganberna not surprised 😭 would you still recommend a move there?
@jackstrange I think that depends more on where you’re moving from and your budget. We are in a housing crisis and don’t have rent control (my own rent went up $300/month this month), but it is still cheaper than some other Canadian cities like Vancouver/Toronto.
@@morganberna the rent control scares me! At least Van and Toronto(?) have that 🤔 it’s good to know so I can consider! I lived in Van but moved back because of the high costs
@@JackStrange yes it’s definitely scary! It wasn’t bad when there were a lot of options, but it’s tricky to find vacancies right now so most people I know have just had to accept whatever their landlords decide. That being said, I do still love the city! It just isn’t how it was as far as affordability a few years back.
a pleasure to watch, thanks for the tips
Thanks for watching! There’s an updated version on my channel as well since things have changed a lot in the past 5 years
5 years since you posted this vid? You our still in YYC? Must be happy there…Will check it out, thanks again.
This was really informative. I am really interested in moving to Calgary in the future.
Thanks! Glad it was helpful! I posted an updated version of this last week I’d recommend checking out ☺️
What would you like to hear in a part 2??
An educative & quite informative video dubbed over Calgary Canada and inter Alia thanks for such a brilliant video Morgan ,keep posting such a nice content pertaining to life in Canada
I am probably looking ahead to move Canada from Pakistan ,your v log help me to know much about Canada calagary
Thanks for the video, Morgan. I am thinking to move from Panama to Canada specifically Calgary.
Glad this was helpful! Please keep in mind this video is older now and we are experiencing a housing crisis now and extreme inflation for prices, it has gotten quite expensive to live here!
@@morganberna yes, I have read a lot of articles on the internet; what I find out is for 1 person cost of living goes around 2-2.5 including rent.
I'd agree, my own landlord is putting my rent up an additional $400/month @@carlosc.x 🙃. So I still love it, but the affordability has certainly changed and is worth considering!
I moved around a lot in Canada, from Montreal to Toronto to Vancouver to Victoria. I am currently living in Victoria and lived here for about 7-8 years with my family. And now I'm planning to move to Calgary for its affordability and easier access to family doctor. This video has given me a lot of good information to make that decision. If you were to start a family, where you would live? North West area or South West/East area (such as Mahogany)?
Hi! I hope your move goes well :). Unfortunately I don't know much about the suburbs here, but have heard good things about both the NW and SW/SE!
I don’t blame you. I wish I could move to Calgary.
Hi! Thank you for the very insightful video. I'm interested in moving to Calgary and doing remote work in the marekting industry. Is it difficult to find remote work in Calgary or is usually elselwhere? Thank you for sharing!
Remote jobs typically allow you to work from anywhere so finding them shouldn’t depend on where you live! If you’re looking for specifically hybrid, I believe lots of companies here offer that now. Glad the video was helpful!
@@morganberna Makes sense! Thank you so much!
Hi Morgan ! First of all great video . You explained things so well. I have one question :
- How is the job market ? I heard the market is very tough to crack and that is the only thing holding me back
Hi! I work in marketing and do freelance copywriting as well, so I have done a mix of remote work and worked for some companies in town. I've always found work here. I suppose it depends on your industry, but I see lots of marketing positions posted currently (LinkedIn, Indeed, etc.). Most people I talk to do need to apply for quite a few jobs before hearing back (myself included).
@@morganberna Thank you Morgan, great insights again ! I'm a software developer at SAP and my brother is also in IT services domain. Do you think the field has enough opportunities ? Also, I would love to connect on LinkedIn and discuss about possible connections that can help us secure jobs. We just have no connections in Calgary 😅
@@redditstories2368 hi! Unfortunately I really don’t know about that field! Maybe try finding a Calgary based LinkedIn recruiter??
@@morganberna Yup ! No worries. I am actually connecting with a lot of recruiters on LinkedIn. Fingers crossed it works out
@@redditstories2368 best of luck! Talent.com and Insarta also have lots of postings that aren’t on Indeed (if you haven’t checked)!
Very interesting video thank you ! Which neighborhoods you recommend ?
I love the greater downtown area! Go-tos would be The Beltline, Mission, Kensington or Inglewood!
Watching this in 2024 and crying while searching for studios apartments that are at least $1600 😭
Ugh so true, it has gotten crazy since I posted this 😞
Calgary
Lions stand guard
Protect the bridge's past
As waters rush beneath my path
Chinatown greets me
As the bus speeds past
Art is everywhere if you look up
As the crowd look down alas
Oh Calgary, how you tease me
With your complicated downtown
I walk against the crowd
A mixture of pity and proud
Name-dropping conversations
and telephone sounds
Smells of cologne and brisket
BarBQing where deals and meals meet
Not far announcements
Of the upcoming Stampede
Security stands guard
Darkened doors silent Marquis
No one blinks an eye
On this busy street
Where secrets are spoken
I have walked several miles
Yet ended up where I started
As the bells announced
the trains going past
And I followed business
clones all dressed in black
Tailored uniforms
of financial pasts
I sat down craving the beer
Announced on every corner
Not taken over by oil Barron's
long renown for their behavior
Where bankers meet
White summertime
snow flows as the
night emperor knows
And his jester pushes his cart
Bottles picked all over the park
To pay the devil what he owes
Keeps what it takes and both push
For it's stakes are high
As they are prey to the
Lord of another kind
Songs and the media don't mind
Glamorizing the lifestyle
So many addicts
in the pinpoint of an eye
It's a cat and sewer rat's game
While cops drive on by
Not seeing the quick handshakes
At the speed of rattlesnakes
Just as their venomous bites
Finds another one to die
mam this wendys
Alberta Busted in 2024/2025 when Oil Price Crashed. It is still hard for Calgary's oil industry recover!! You may work as barista, uber-drivers, minimum wages jobs!! ALBERTA's oil is not working right!! Hard!!
It’s definitely not what it was when I made this video. A lot has changed that I address in the updated video!
Hey morgan I am from India after6 month will be move in Canada in Alberta
Thanks for vedio
Welcome!! I found it tough my first year to adapt to the winters but now I don’t mind them and enjoy the sunlight we get all year. It’s a fun and very easygoing city ☺️
9:10 “Politically”, you have some growing up to do and in time will realize, “politically”, why you have found Calgary, Alberta, is better overall. Free-thinking, independent-minded, right-wing politics is what is attracting Canadians to Calgary & Alberta. It is well-known by now that the adult brain does not fully develop until 25-35 years old.
Thank you for calling me young 🥰 you do realize this is a girly vlog channel right? It might not be for you and that’s just fine
@@morganberna , I'm impressed, you took that well! 😊 Just bringing some perspective. All the best to you in Calgary-and keep it as you found it! 🙂
