Ask actual natives, not just white people "native canadians". This makes me actually sick. Not the Indians, the racism. Canada is built on Immigrants. The comments are just as bad, educate yourselves.

What the bike guy is actually ssying is pure hate like ehat the f did the Muslim did or the afticans the question was about india and why he treats Islam as a race by saying the muslims? It's wierd that everyone in the comments is okay with what he said ( racism)

just one point i’d like to make is the comment you made asking “native canadians” but you spoke to just non-immigrants. there are indigenous people in canada that are actually native to the land. those are the native americans.

So many racist comments from non native white Canadian 🐖 who are acting like they are inuits the original natives of the land!! Furthermore being British born and watching from England I can tell you one Damm thing, not one of these Indians are on governments benefits, they are working their socks off unlike others from a certain religion such as the recent Minnesota problem. Furthermore how many own a house there as compared to what you people call a Canadian white person, it will be interesting to know the facts. And no the heavens didn’t open up on them with gold coins raining on their heads 😂. Here in London you get the same occasional problem where non educated white people start to moan and can’t tell the difference between an Indian person or Pakistani, by the way Indians own the most homes in London have a think why!! They actually go out and work and want to achieve something In life!!

The comments on this video makes me sick. As a Canadian it genuinely disturbs me to read all the extremely racist rhetoric from people who I think better of. None of this video had any facts or anything. He just interviewed a racist guy on a bike and suddenly everyone thinks that is fact? If you actually did any real research, immigration has stimulated the Canadian economy immensely whether or not people want to believe it. And multiculturalism and sharing cultures will never be a bad thing. Racism will never be okay for Canadians. Stop it.

Please pin this comment Tyler, please go back and do a whole series about the Trucking Scandal 1. Please search the tragic Humboldt crash. The driver failed to read a stop sign 2. You actually ended up speaking with a possible "mule" who again is there "temporarily" 3. Please look up the free documentary CBC put out in regards to the E Indian community "handing out" commercial driving licenses 4. Please search all the recent arrests inbound and outbound Detroit and Port Huron borders. 98% east Indian and the names are always written in the articles. These are facts 5. The "mules" get a slap on the wrist for the contraband and end up getting deported 6. The company starts the process again and claims they know nothing 7. Their company owners all drive exotic vehicles and fancy homes Please look into this, it's been happening for years and years

I’m gonna comment here with a lil rant and I’m Indian woman, and I know my comment here would probably invite a lot of racist remarks . I am working very hard in my country to be a doctor and I wanna leave my country (because no opportunities ) and move to a better and a safer country where I’m respected as a woman , which my country fails to . Now , I have to give a lot of exams and fill up a lot of visa requirements to be in any better country and I’m absolutely fine with it . But I’m not fine with the fact that countries like Canada , Australia , uk etc are immigrating people from India who are not educated , don’t wanna assimilate, with very eased up visa requirements, easy pr facilities because these countries want cheap labor and when these bottom of barrel uneducated folks move to another country they do shady businesses , start making huge communities of similar people having similar views and this leads to chaos and a backlash , racism on a particular ethnicity, stereotypes and so and so . I’m not saying my people aren’t flawed , they are but why the government is so easy in immigrating uneducated uncouth people from 3rd world countries where even these people wouldn’t be hired in some great companies or give anything great to build a valuable society , why people who are talented and literally would assimilate, has respect , is educated literally would bring a change for better is sidelined or toughened up their immigration process ? I might come off as very rude and jealous by my comment and actually im kinda jealous but I really wanna know and I observed this pattern a lot . All educated people wanting to move out are struggling while these kinda are just migrating so so easily and most even have permanent residencies WHAT ???

Any commenters actually been to India? They are completely self-interested people in India. Evidently part of their culture. No sense of empathy. No sense of real generosity. Comments about the driving in Ontario are consistent with this behavior. In India, on the roads and in social contact they are inclined to push, shove, cut in, avoid eye-contact unless they perceive insult or injury to themselves. This is perhaps a function of population density, wherein everyone has to claim space and resources. There is also an element of religion, the cultural lack of Christianity which claims eternal consequences for bad behavior.

I think RocaNews you need to be a little more thoughtful into your questioning. I'm also feeling like it's a little lazy to do this research and not include certain data points with it. Or to actually create processes/opportunities to get "newcomers" and "long-time residents" to speak together, a division of people that is far more complicated than the division you add to in this documentary. Think about your values and what the goal of this is. Reflect on this before you just go do the same elsewhere. Look at the comments. What are you adding to/contributing to relieving tension within and between communities? What is your overall purpose.

It's really funny that this whole video is about how we should be worry about how many deportations are happening but actually if you read the comments everyone's like it's not enough we should deport more is I find it hilarious

The problem is immigration back in day was a luxury in India so only riches made it outside and they were rich compared to others after independence because they were more pro british and served them. So it was easy for them to immigrate and assimilate into your culture. Now you see many poor people also immigrating because immigration became more accessible, its just like the touchscreen phones, before only rich people had them, but later and now everyone has it. Plus your overly liberal and the stupid point system lets anyone enter the country if they meet a specific criteria, they barely check their english, background, crime record, etc. Also, living in India is a survival, or a nightmare for short. Especially for the poor people in the up north, and so they go to these shady agents who claim that they can send him or her to Canada, UK, Australia where ever they want in exchange for some money. Sometimes these agents turnout to be scams and sometimes not, then these students apply to some fake university that has no campus in Canada and select a course thats easy. Then once approved they come to canada, don’t go to university and make some other indian friends who say they have contacts with some job providers and through that the students get their jobs at the fast food joints and shopping malls. The mindset with which these students come to Canada is that I want to get a simple job as soon as I land in Canada and through that job I can get a PR. They never go to assimilate or discover the culture, they come because the country looks nice, has resources, and will provide them with a good salary so that they send some money back home to their parents as compared to low paying jobs in India, which too are super competitive. They still like the indian way of life, the culture, the food, the attire, just not in India. Thats why you’ll never see these students eating at anything other than a Indian Punjabi Restaurant or a fast food joint, they will never make white friends, they will never try to change the way they speak and look at Canadians, they will never try to change their driving habits. In conclusion, more poor people and students migrating, paired with their mindset of “I want everything to be Indian just not in India but in a place that looks better” paired with their low interest in actually learning and working better jobs is what makes them a bad immigrant group. But thats not to say that all are like that its only some and mostly Punjabis/ other North Indians that have this mindset. The reason why the Indian group in USA is much better and successful is because they are mostly of south indian descent. Those people are far more educated, actually respect the law of the land. And fun fact: The stereotypical Indian Accent originated from USA mainly and reason why many indians say that they don’t speak in that accent is because that particular stereotypical accent is present in Indian people who come from the states of Andra Pradesh and Telegana, which is is where most of the Indians in USA are actually from. Sorry for the long ass comment and some writing mishaps, I really lose my writing quality when I’m writing long comments.

These comments are jokes … I’m a born and raised Canadian who’s parents came here in the 1960 to British Columbia , Brampton is beautiful city a lot of this hate towards it is just racism .. go to Markham filled with Chinese’s who’s stores names are written in their language they even had police station setup , go to Mississauga area filled with Arabs, go to parkdale filled with Philippines and Tibetan … every city in this country has sub section of communities and if people have issue with immigration go and complain to the government that’s allowing it to happen by selling false dreams … immigration is open to anyone as long as you have the money to support your stay here along with the necessary paperwork… plus half of the people complaining about jobs go and ask manager why they hire international kids .. cause they actually show up to work since they gotta work had to pay for high cost of living.. unlike most of the Canadian born kids that will call in sick cause they stayed up until 3 playing video games , it has nothing to do with skin color but work ethics

From the comments it seems that no one actually watched the whole video...

Shame on all you "Canadians" in the comments. Real Canadians do not claim you racists. Disgusting video spreading misinfo, and hate. people like you are worsening the hate and racism in this country. "The greatest illusion of this world is the illusion of separation. Things you think are separate and different are actually one and the same. We are all one people. but live as if divided." Again shame on all you blatant racists and bigots in the comments!!

O…M…G…! I did not realize, until I read these comments, how many nincompoops we also have in Canada! 1) we are ALL IMMIGRANTS with the First Nations being here first.* * since "time immemorial," a concept referring to First Nations presence on the land long before recorded history. Archeological and genetic evidence suggests migration from northeastern Asia, likely via the Bering Strait, with research pointing to human arrival 30,000 years ago or even earlier. 2) we have welcomed immigrants to settle our lands since more inhabitants equals more revenues for infrastructure. Yes, restructuring of the process is a good idea. 3) Poilievre is a thin skinned man of the pointy finger and blame game with little to offer in actual plans or programs. He plays to people’s gripes, whining, and general b*tch*ness. He IS very similar to the blow-hart down south although more literate. 4) There is no possible way he, especially being of like behaviour, could deal with The Felon. He is NOT a negotiator. He is not calm; he’s bombastic. He’s waaaaaaaay to the right, and will trample equal rights for women, and other valued communities. He has no interest in listening to other positions, views, or suggestions. His way or the highway. Again like the Fascist down south. 4) Our provincial leaders (except a few traitors to Canada’s sovereignty) are behind the extremely difficult work Carney is doing for our country. 67% of Canadians are cheering him on, including the Conservative playground scrapper, Doug Ford, plus Stephen Harper. So, put your bile on hold and support the positive. We’re in a really difficult, daily changing, coming at us from all sides, battle with the POS south of us. Carney is giving it his all. Can’t imagine he gets much sleep. How ‘bout break with the party-love, and have some respect for someone working so hard. Fighting for YOU! ❤️🇨🇦❤️

Seeing people actually fall for this guy’s B.S. you can begin to comprehend how the Egyptians worshiped an insect. In light of rabid anti Americanism in Canada, President Trump would be wise to fortify and close the border as a defensive measure against invasion, infiltration, and sabotage. Canada has made it clear they’d rather spend a lot more to ship oil to China’s Communist Dictator Xi Jin Ping in Asia and back than pay a modest 10% tariff and send oil down an already working pipeline to next door America. Contrary to some mega ignorant comments, The U.S.A. is rich in natural resources and can be self sufficient. We just have to resume use of resources that were shut down by the appropriately initialed Barak Obama, Biden-Harris, and deep state bureaucrats in Washington. President Trump can accomplish this with our support. Shop carefully and please do not buy anything from Canada. Leave all Canadian goods to rot on the shelf. You won’t regret not making it to the Miss Hockey Puck festival in balmy Churchill Manitoba either. Other protective measures should be immediate cancellation of all visas and green cards held by Canadians and their deportation from U.S. territory.

This corruptive clown lecturing others is the biggest irony in the world. But this biased channel and biased comment section is ready to show him as a hero, even when HE DESTROYED CANADA. But, sure, CNN, SURE. That's why your ratings have been in the tank lately. Keep it unbiased and report actual NEWS.

There's more comments on this than CNN has actual viewers ?

The world is actually complete and utterly doomed ? if you don't laugh you will cry. Everytime I mention isreal my comment is removed. Trade wars, rubbing shoulders with terrorists, favouring dictators. This is ridiculoussssss?

I am annoyed with CNN for turning this into a WAFFLE Soapy...At Last Trudeau has grown BALLS and he was presenting a Polite, Rational, Understandable, Logical, Factual explanation NOT only to AMERICA BUT more so to Canada and the World that Trump is NOT actually a SMART man but rather a deranged and dangerous illiterate with NO interest other than HIS EGO...SO CNN in your wisdom you ignored Trudeau's replies to questions from the press and gave oxygen to your WAFFLE MONGERS LIGHT WEIGHT comments.\n I have never been a supporter of wishy washy Trudeau....until this polite and measured presentation by him which was brilliant as an Educational tool not only for the American People BUT also for ALL of those ALLIES in the FREE World that TRUMP has absolutely NO RESPECT for and has been singularly responsible for the FREE World ALLIES to seriously rethink their allegiances with Chaotic America due to Donald's apparently Love affair with Putin as a fellow Dictator.\n America listen up.... The U.K./Europe are cranking up their home based on their door step DEFENSE INDUSTRIES etc which will be GREAT for Europe.... BUT not so GREAT for America''s employment going SOUTH.\n I was born in 1936 in the U.K. and have first hand experience of the TORTURE Ukraine is experiencing as the RESULT of Putin INVADING Ukraine....Donald and his Attack dog Vance are dangerous illiterates.

The difference in comments between CNN viewers & ACTUAL news outlets is incredible. All of the TDS patients gather here because they know CNN will tell them what they want to hear. You’re all deluded & you don’t even know it. Incredible. Have prices increased? Can you provide evidence to show these price increases? Maybe you people should move to a different country. If you like Canada so much they got plenty of space. Trump is the president. Get over it. You people are genuinely pathetic

I see comments from many. How are Republican right playing this. Do they actually think Elon and Trump are making America great. Learn to speak Russian and Chinese. Trumps legacy after he strokes out will be with us even after the jokes, the commentary and documentaries have lost interest.\nYou have an enemy within.

If you all believe that this is actually about fentanyl or the border - you're totally naive. Just look at the attacks being undertaken by Trump and Vance towards their allies around the world. This is abouts severing ties, and trying to assert dominance over its former friends. To declare the US the biggest bully in the schoolyard. This is Vladimir Putin's playbook - and his wildest dreams come true. It will only serve to isolate and weaken the US. As a Canadian - very proud of Trudeau's direct, honest comments.

These comments are disappointing. All these Americans standing with other countries smh. Go live there! Nobody is forcing you to stay in America. Why don’t you actually start trying to help OUR country be better INSTEAD OF COUNTRIES!!! How can so many people LOVE that OUR taxes go to non Americans?. Or lining the pockets of the very politicians you all are listening to? Make it make sense. Oh wait, it all makes sense when you all have TDS. The elections are OVERRRRR, how are democrats going to survive the next 4 years? This is just getting started & as you can see, Trump always gets what he wants. No more sleepy joe & kackling kamala. Soon enough NO MO Trudeau!

BLISTERING SPEECH....hahaha...the bllind leading the blind in the comments...folks...wait until you find out what's ACTUALLY GOING ON....

I have no idea if Prime Minister Trudeau reads any of these comments or if his team does, but as an American, I am ashamed of our current government. We have a narcissist for a leader who is a bad businessman and a puppet of Putin. How refreshing to see a real LEADER who actually cares about his country and not himself. I support Canada wholeheartedly. I suspect many Americans will be hurt badly by these embargoes and (justified) retaliatory tariffs - but so be it.

Everyone commenting here thinks that Justin is really great; wait until we unleash Pierre Poilievre or Mark Carney in a couple of months. They're not just good public speakers; but actually intelligent as well. Justin and Jagmeet Singh have been holding our Parliament hostage for years.

To the uneducated liberals in the comments, Canada already has a 270% tariff on American goods and has for the last decade with Donald Trump did was put reciprocal tariffs on Canada toQ further balance, the imbalance so you guys being upset that President Trump isn’t acting tariffs on a country who’s already enacted tariffs on the United States then you’re being hypocrites. \n\nSee most of the world audience understands this you guys are actually the minority. Donald Trump is pulling at 60% in United States. The Democrats are pulling at 21% in United States. Just so you guys have an idea of just how unpopular you guys really are.

Gas and groceries and everything cost the same gas is actually cheaper!!! A bunch of CNN Leftist propaganda!!!! GOD BLESS AMERICA!! GOD BLESS TRUMP AND STANDING UP FOR US TRUE AMERICANS!!! ALL YOU CNN SUPPORTERS AND BOTS COMMENTING PLEASE MOVE TO CANADA:)

If I weren’t going to Disney with the kids. I would have boycotted my trip to the USA. Canadians and Americans have always poked fun at each other, in modern history, but now, trump has created a division of hatred. You have actual Americans posting cruel comments. I guess, divide and conquer, was his plan. So sick

So stunned by all these comments, do people not actually no history

this comment section makes me so sad it’s such an example of a lack of empathy with have in america do you think all these people would be doing this running in a fucking mob with their children if they weren’t absolutely desperate. don’t you think they’re probably well aware that they won’t be able to actually beat armed militia and were doing this in protest??? can’t we critically think what drives people to do the things they do and then structural address them!!! hate will never create prosperity for all!!!

Didnt people in 2016 say if trump was elected they would move to canada.. 9years later he have people coming from canada as immigrants? I thought the immigration problem only existed from yhe south and the middle east.... Almost like the human condition isnt when it comes to ones personal views, but the majority over all. Im sorry but once youve seen the actual picture, its hard to focus on individual elements \n\nOhh btw, \n\nDont delet my comment YouTube

Reading the comments, people are quick to forget how politicians operate. They say some good things to keep people from hownding them, but dont follow up with actions. Saudi, most of the gulf actually, jordan and turkey etc they say things they know ppl would prefer to hear, but they say it to keep ppl off their back. They are all helping israel in different ways. Shame on them obviously, but shame on those who believe their lies even more.

Straight to the comments, see what moron actually believing it’s fair for men to compete against women?

I'm surprised it's actually CNN showing this. I'm just here for the comments.

Isn’t Canada ultra expensive as is?… Trudeau didn’t think this thru… life in Canada just got waaayyy more costly \n\nAll trump wants is to secure your damn borders. Oh but wait that would actually cost you money. \n\nAnd for all the comments about oil/gas\n\nAmerica has our own.. we will be just fine

It's incredible that so many of the people commenting here don't understand the reason for the tariffs. We're being invaded by illegal aliens and deadly drugs. The point of the tariffs is to prod your leadership into doing the right thing. Stop allowing our country to be flooded with poisons that are killing us. If you're really good guys, you would stand up to the actual bad guy, your prime minister Trudeau. Keep in mind he's flooding your country with dangerous islamists. You should want that to stop

I think all the negative comments aren't actual Americans but the usual DW comment russian bots bored with no Ukrainian news stories to complain about today

Reading comments about transgender service people vs anti-vaxxers:\n\nBeing transgender doesn't increase the risk of spreading a powerful virus. This will not prevent service members from doing their job. \n\nNot having a vaccine greatly increases the probability of spreading a virus. This can prevent service members from doing job by needing to recover themselves or their close proximity loved ones. \n\nYou have no idea wtf you're actually thinking about when making these loose connections.

these was actually over a year ago,\nNot on Trumps watch.\nLook at some of the comment date stamps.\nCNN doing what they do best at miss leading news.\nOr somebody posting it again trying to stir up shet.

Columbia already folded to Trump and agreed to take them back. There's a REAL President that knows how to get things done! Seems like this comment section and CNN doesn't keep up to what's actually happening

The Comments section have more Informative thoughts than the actual Video (⁠☞⁠ ⁠ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ⁠)⁠☞

Can Modi supporters reply under my comment how this is another master stroke by Modiji or how this is actually is vision of Modiji, I am sure you have some conspiracy ready.

I hope Palki actually reads these comments.

Based on actual comments from immigrants with experience - negative —> DW propoganda - positive ?

nah these comments r wild. I’m not Sikh but know that’s their “knife” is actually a kirpan. No the cop was not right! I understand if someone was just carrying a knife around, however , this is religious. This is why people need to be educated, but no, no one wants to educate their kids about different cultures now days. The poor kid, the kirpan is used for defence, and only if peaceful options haven’t worked.

That one backfired pretty bad. Progressive thought he was going to play gotcha with a Mexican. But right and wrong does not depend on your personal welfare like most commenters here. Surprise! Righteousness actually transcends your own selfish desires.

Idk i think you need to realize that we also have our bias in addition to you having yours. Meaning, to most of us , excepting the most left leaning socially progressive pockets and contexts , which even then wouldn’t be viewed that way to us just acceptable lol ?\n\nOur baseline/political middle in Canada is A LOT more left leaning than the baseline normal/political middle in the states. So while people tend to equate your democrats to our liberals or our NDP , and equate your republicans to our conservatives. It’s just not accurate. If you throw our span of parties and American span of parties on the SAME spectrum /polarity line. You might be surprised to realize how shifted left our systems range politically is from the American one. \n\nThis hugely impacts the average normal expectation , what we clutch our pearls at hearing coming out of the mouths of the general public , and our range of what we expect to not hear or see ranted about unless they’re to our view , extremely right leaning politically /social values. \n\nFor us this means that actually genuinely , a lot of America does get experiences by us as bat shit crazy racist homophobic immigrant intolerant culturally and religiously ignorant , and somewhat backwards in larger or smaller amounts ? I know that’s not fun to hear but. Being the most diverse country based so much on immigration means. What is normal and known /familiar and normal so we aren’t ignorant to , is completely different. \n\nFor us we have our pockets usually in more rural less populated areas further away from larger cities where there is more diversity but that’s the same often in many countries that you will find some of the louder racist homophobic intolerant voices typically in places that truly are unfamiliar and ignorant to the experience of growing up with and around much of any diversity of varying kinds. So it’s not to say we don’t have racism and intolerance of course like anywhere we do. It’s just contained and the range and frequency and intensity is MUCH different. We distinguish nuances of diff cultures and religions more easily and in larger numbers we’re more familiar with diff ways of life , language , food, dress , holidays , values and used to a much less segregated way of existing even when we are differnt from each other as the NORM. My parents were both born in the states and my older brother was born there but they moved up here when he was a baby. So nearly all my extended family lives down there and I’m a duelly. And my experiences discussing things with my cousins or visiting absolutely could be described as culture shock at times. The insane things that came out of my own cousins mouths when they hear our friends or partners of various cultures , our not understanding how big a deal and incredibly insulting apparently it is to have assumed someone American was lgbt lol the list goes on. Like I don’t think our most intolerant Pockets can hold a flame to even ur closet to middle a bit intolerant places and contexts in America. Quite honestly. \n\nI think the absolute undying favourable passionate upholding and support of nationalistic, capitalist, hyper individualistic mentality about society as a whole (from my Canadian born and bred perspective lol) makes the differences even more glaring blaring and hard to swallow for us lol. I think more Canadians would feel exactly how that comment stated , that you felt was not fair for us to experience America as. I think the truth is a lot of Canadians are being too polite to let you know that’s exactly how a lot of America comes off to a lot of Canada ?

Lot of people in this comments coping. This lady knows whats up, she is realistic and actually understands the law
