Should You Actually Leave Canada?
Most advice about leaving Canada skips the first question and jumps straight to the how. This module starts where your decision actually starts, and it costs you nothing but 25 minutes.

Four short video lessons, taught on camera
You’ll watch Christopher walk through the whole framework on screen: the three departure paths, your financial readiness, and your personal readiness, with the Decision Scorecard filled in live alongside a real worked example.
Clarity on the decision, before anyone sells you the destination
This isn’t a teaser. It’s the full first module of the course, and it’s built to leave you with three things you don’t have today.
Your departure path
Full departure, testing it out, or not sure yet. Three very different plans, and your Canadian tax residency plan comes before your destination. You’ll know which path you’re on.
How the CRA sees it
Leaving physically and leaving for tax purposes are two different things. You’ll understand why a half-committed exit is generally the most expensive kind.
Your readiness, scored
The interactive Decision Scorecard runs alongside the module. Work through it as you watch and leave with an honest read on your financial and personal readiness.
Fill in your scorecard as you watch
Every section of the module maps to a section of the interactive Decision Scorecard. You’ll follow Michael, a case study running through the whole framework on screen, and fill in your own answers alongside him.
By the end you’ll have an honest picture of your financial and personal readiness, and a clear read on which departure path fits your situation.
You’re not the only one asking
Real replies from Canadians on the Blueprint Abroad waitlist, shared anonymously with their words intact.
I am getting closer and closer to make up my mind about leaving Canada… I try to piece the tax situation together but it’s so complicated and I am not even sure about my options.
I don’t know enough yet to know what to be worried about financially.
I am considering leaving Canada… I might stay in Canada for up to 5 years also. I’d be willing to sell everything to leave if the case presents itself.
Different situations, same underlying question. Module 1 was built to turn exactly this uncertainty into a decision you can stand behind.
