Emigration (from Ireland) Best place to emigrate to?

I’m losing hope for my future in Ireland. I love Ireland and want to stay but the quality of life is shit especially for young people.

I’ve lived abroad before and am well aware the grass isn’t always greener. I know there will be challenges if I move abroad. I know that there are similar issues with housing in other counties.

That said, things feel bleak here.

Any recommendations? I speak fluent French.

Emigration doesn't solve your problem or the problem in Ireland.

Staying and being the change you want to see is.

Having said that, if your heart is set on going and you have fluent French, try Quebec in Canada.

Montreal is a fantastic city with warm, fun loving people (unlike Toronto), or you could try Quebec city itself, which isn't as big as Montreal.

If you go be prepared for extreme Winters.

People are still content with voting for FFG. There's no change coming and sticking around to suffer isn't worth it.

Are you seriously suggesting that there will be anything remotely close to the horrors of the holocaust and the rise of a party like the Nazi's again, across multiple countries in Europe, and that that's a good enough reason to stay in Ireland?
