‘He earns so much in Canada’: Indian man reveals tree trimmer’s hourly income, internet reacts

An Indian man living in Canada has triggered a discussion online after revealing the amount he paid a professional tree trimmer for just an hour of work. Vishal shared the experience in an Instagram video, where he explained that he spent CAD 700 (around Rs 49,113) to get overgrown tree branches trimmed at his home. According to him, the work was completed within nearly an hour.

Why the Job Costs So Much

In the video, Vishal mentioned that the worker remains fully occupied during the summer months and takes up snow-clearing jobs in winter, helping him maintain a steady income throughout the year.

He further explained that tree trimming involves much more than simple manual labour. The work requires technical expertise, costly equipment, specialised tools, trucks, and years of experience. Vishal also highlighted the risks associated with the job, including injuries and possible damage to property, which contribute to the high service charges.

"He earns so much in Canada ����, it will blow your mind," the video was captioned on Instagram.

Social Media Reactions

The video quickly drew reactions from users online. One user wrote, "Brother, he is taking a big risk not only for himself but also for others around him. If that tiny branch injures someone, then his whole business will be affected."

Another user commented, "This is the reality of Canada. In many fields, a practical skill is worth far more than a university degree," another user said.
