Canada has a government that is destroying our country. The working class gets to pay for all these immigrants that live better and have more benefits than Canadians. Working Canadians are struggling to live. Our adult children have no hope of owning homes. We need to get rid of the corrupt liberals!!!!!!!

Canada has reduced the number of student visas and temporary foreign worker permits because even people who are pro immigration and not racist recognize that it has gotten out of hand. Diversity is good. Diversity requires lots of different kinds of people living together. Immigration shouldn’t be mostly one group no matter what the ethnicity or colour is. It’s all about balance.

Canada 🇨🇦 has been trying to attract more people from Europe and that has failed for years now because of our winters. Nobody has children like in the past and the demographic of our population has declined. If we don’t have children, then who’s going to pay for the pensioners to live? All the comments here are just about how crooked the liberals are and not a bad word about PP. If you google him you’ll find that he is worth $95 million and he’s a shareholder of Brookfield and yet he’s a god in the same eyes. Well Carney is a banker and I would expect a banker to have more money than just about anyone. I’m a conservative voter but I am proud to say that I voted for Carney otherwise we would have been sold out to the USA . The problems with immigration is a very strong and should be reviewed and corrected.

These immigrants have it too good! Wow, a whole four dolllars per prescription. I’m paying more than that in all my co pay and I live below the poverty line! Hell, I have to pay seventeen dollars in co pay for Spiriva just so I can breath and these damn asylum seekers get it for four bucks?! These freeloaders have got to go! Born and raised in Canada. Paid taxes since I was sixteen and this is my payback! Then they wonder why Canadians are starting to resent and actually hate these immigrants. Sorry but not sorry!!!!

You should then also discuss that a lot of companies are attracting these 'knowledge' workers and the goverment plays a big part of in it too. Its all just dumb. Companies want cheap labor, lobby with goverment, goverment agrees because of international competativeness..... and bamm 1 family turns in to, 2 into 10, into 20 etc. But no body is holding companies responsible, and the people who live there are getting f*cked but not by the immigrants, its the businesses in their own country that lobbied like a mf to get these people here.

Lena Diab is an embarrassment, and sadly, I say that as someone who lives in her riding and sees her up close (shame on my neighbours!). And I think we have to assume that she remains the Immigration Minister because Carney wants the file to be mismanaged, or he would replace her.

Liberals are using immigration to build up voters hence why the give these people better living conditions than Canadians, give businesses incentives to hire them over Canadian born and even give them better and faster healthcare while the tax payer dies waiting to get life threatening surgeries.

Just an FYI here, lived worked my entire adult life in Canada, 62 now and don't have a doctor, can't retire anytime soon, but my illegal immigrant neighbours get 80 thousand dollars per year and free EVERYTHING! I made 30 thousand working and paying for them...GAWD help us all that have put our entire lives into paying for other people and countries well being, maybe one day Canada will put me first and make sure I can afford to eat in this country

Of course the Liberals don't know what is going on. If they knew what was going on then they could be held accountable and it appears that is something no Liberal wants. They don't want to take responsibility ever for anything that they do and they rely on equally inept voters to keep them in office. As to the subject at hand, Canadians should not be responsible for immigrants or people claiming asylum health costs for anything past their first 6 months here. Going past 6 months indicates that they have yet to gain employment and are living off our backs. Those who are still here after being turned back should be located and sent packing immediately regardless of their present standing. For example, someone came here and was rejected but never left. Today they get picked up and now they claim they have a family here. They should still be removed because if they had left when they were supposed to they wouldn't have that family now would they. Yes, it may appear to be harsh but is it not harsh to use the funds provided by people who have a legal right to be here to support those who never should have been here?

Canadians hate the mass immigration of foreigners and I know this because I am Canadian I lived in Canada for 20 years they do not like it it’s disgusting honestly they literally don’t wanna see Emily and all roof up in one area turn it into a little whatever close the boarders

Why is it so difficult to have reasonable conversations about this? Most of this video is completely true — but so many comments show love to that bike guy who was factually incorrect and pointlessly racist. But on the other hand, so many woke types don’t even want to admit the problem. They also don’t want to talk about how the government is complicit. Every nation has a right to define itself, and how much immigration it wants, and how that immigration happens. It is beyond ridiculous to not speak the primary language of the country you emigrate to. But why say weird shit like indians eat shit?? Or that 1.5 billion people are all the same? The rationale behind early immigration was to be very tough and selective about who enters and lives here. They welcomed students because it brought in a lot of revenue so that’s a win-win, but to LIVE they had to prove they were an asset to the community. Now the whole thing is manipulated. You don’t have proper vetting for the students because of fake colleges that just want to make money. You don’t have proper limits on immigration and criteria for jobs/skills because companies want to make money. Politicians just do whatever strategy gets votes. But for some reason people either only get woke about the positives of Indian immigrants or only negative, sometimes racist about them. It’s fair to acknowledge that rampant, unchecked immigration ruins the culture. Like Indian driving culture is fucking terrible. You don’t want to bring that shit over. You can also acknowledge that early immigrants and their kids are often completely American/Canadian, from their native language, accents, education, references etc. And that Indians are generally a low-crime, high-employment, high-tax-paying immigrant group. And we ALSO acknowledge that that’s changing because of the type/number of people coming in, and the financial and political incentives which support it. It causes valid resentment. These fucking human smuggling rings are real af. Wokies don’t ever talk about it. But I wish we could have this conversation without the racism.

ASSIMILATION IS THE END GOAL OF IMMIGRATION FFS?!?! You wanna be Canadian and live in Canada? Than ACT CANADIAN! WE ARE NOT A THIRD WORLD COUNTRY!! Stop infecting our Country! You act like a disease that we can’t cure because you refuse to assimilate! FUCK!!

Oh, Tyler Oliveira—you sniveling, camera-clutching clown from the States, desperately chasing clicks by dunking on India like it's your ticket to relevance. You slither into our sacred festivals, twist them into your racist freak shows, and call it "content"? That Gorehabba video where you mocked an ancient Karnataka ritual as the "sh***iest experience" of your life? Pathetic. You got roasted so hard by millions of Indians that you cried uncle, doxxed and threatened, begging for mercy while scrapping your whole "documentary." Then you pivot to whining about "Canada's Indian Invasion," painting hardworking Indians as some horde overwhelming your precious borders—only for YouTube to smack it down before you reuploaded your bile. Newsflash, you bottom-feeding provocateur: India's not your punchline. We're the eternal empire that's outlasted losers like you for millennia. Time to school your ignorant ass on why you should've stayed in your mom's basement—India, the unstoppable tiger that could crush your entire "career" without noticing. Let's start with the obvious: scale, you microscopic meme. India's a juggernaut with 1.45 billion souls, a population exploding with talent and tenacity, projected to dominate the world demo while your declining West scrambles for immigrants to wipe its ass. We're bigger than your wildest fever dreams—3.287 million square kilometers of epic diversity, from Himalayan fortresses to tech hubs that power the globe. You? A solo YouTuber with a few million subs, hiding behind a mic, peddling poop jokes because real journalism's too hard. Your "exposés" on cow dung rituals or urine therapy? Cherry-picked trash from one village, ignoring that India's the cradle of civilization— inventors of zero, yoga, and chess when your ancestors were grunting in caves. You sensationalize our extremes to feed your racist fanbase, but guess what? We own the narrative now; your videos get mass-reported and buried because 1.5 billion of us don't play. Economy? You love ranting about H-1B visas and Indians "invading" jobs—cry harder, Tyler. India's GDP is blasting past $4 trillion, eyeing $10 trillion by 2030, with 7% growth that laps your stagnant economy. We're the world's startup unicorn factory, with giants like Reliance and Tata that could buy your channel for chump change. Indian CEOs run Google, Microsoft, and half of Silicon Valley—your tech overlords are us, bro. And those "invasions" you fear? We're the brains keeping Canada and the US afloat; without Indian talent, your countries would crumble into irrelevance. Your anti-Indian rants on visas? Just salty jealousy from a guy whose "content" relies on AI-generated slop and hate bait. Keep mocking; we'll keep innovating and out-earning you. Power? Don't make me laugh. India's military is a nuclear-armed beast: $80+ billion budget, 1.4 million troops, hypersonic missiles, and carriers that could sail circles around your non-existent army. We're ranked top 4 globally in firepower, staring down real threats while you play pretend journalist in safe suburbs. You "fight" with a camera; we'd "eat you up" with one viral backlash—remember how we turned your life into "a living hell" with reports and threats? That's just a taste; cross us again, and your channel's toast. But we're merciful giants—unlike you, we don't need to stoop to your level. Our people? Unbreakable legends. A mosaic of 2,000+ ethnic groups, 22 languages, and faiths that birthed Buddhism, Hinduism, and the world's largest democracy. Bollywood crushes your Hollywood knockoffs; our cuisine, from biryani to butter chicken, rules global menus while you gag on sensationalized "poop" stories. We've conquered empires—the Mughals, British—and risen stronger, while you're just another white dude profiting off exoticism. Racist? Check your mirror; your videos drip with disdain for "third-world" vibes, but India's soft power—cricket, curry, tech—owns the planet. You called our festival "humanity's extinction" risk? Nah, that's your career after we expose your bigotry. So, Tyler, tuck your tail and run. Apologize for your propaganda, delete your trash, and stick to interviewing rednecks. India's not your playground; we're the big daddy that broke you once and can do it again. Stay scared, clown. Jai Hind!

I wonder why these traitors to Canada haven't been dragged out of office and hung from the nearest tree... They did this on purpose with malice and forethought... Read agenda 2030 proudly written by circus clown carney where he plans to invite a total of 65 million muslims from africa, middle east and the third world making our population 100,000,000. we will be outnumbered by indians from india, middle east, and Africans. The problem with any immigration is when we only take the best and the brightest we are stealing away the future from those nations, when we take in the illeterate we are burden by their tribal backward ideologies, and have to care for these people from cradle to grave as they will never be able to compete in an open job market where every grade three student has a better education than they. We MUST send them all home. ALL OF THEM. Why are we allowing a man who hasn't lived in Canada for over thirty years, a man whos primary residence is in New York state to be leader? He's not truly Canadian, and shouldn't have been allowed to enter public office.

60% india. As for the government data, still even today doesn't make hundreds ruppe a day 60% of India that roughly work about 70cr indians people's you don't make even hundreds rupees per day India is a poor country In india where 90cr indians can't afford 2 time food 50lakh childrens die every year due to the hunger 30cr indians are homeless 40cr Indians living in deadly slums 800 million Indian waiting everymonth for 5kg atta (source indian gourmet data 2024) So Indians love india so much they are immigrated to Canada, UK, Europe and the USA to talk about how great India is 😂😂😂

After covid 19 and lax immigration laws opened the flood gates of Indians to come in and what they did? Start buying houses making the prices reach unattainable levels now for any native. On top of that who's on every single job now? Well now it's literally impossible to get a job anywhere. Cost of food? Oh yeah it rose 2 folds. Quality of living? Well that dropped 2 folds too.

lmao imagine thinking that people living in Canada, immigrant or not, would want to go live in the fkng USA 🤣

deport them all. no more immigrants and no more refugees!! no housing, no social services, no health care, no child tax benefits, no food bank access. They wont stay long. NONE! WE ARE DONE!! We lived like the old saying "I can change them" and we learned that we can't! They want to change us, not assimilate. The liberals have destroyed our country for votes- it makes me sick.

An "Alberta" approved immigration status? Sorry but I live in the country of Canada. Not the country of Alberta

Sad thing about all of this. I am sure there are people from different parts of Canada and immigrants voted for her. Canada is not a terrible place to live. We have issues like every other country in this world. Hopefully things will get better in the future, but I will not turn them away because their skin colour doesn’t match mine.

Alberta is a province. Immigration to Canada is a federal responsibility. If Alberta wants to compete for those workers, they will need to improve public services, and assure workers are paid enough to afford to live there. Alberta is an expensive place to live. I know that from experience. Alberta also benefits from the education and investments made by Canada. And Alberta benefits from the pipeline that Justin Trudeau forced through. SO STOP WHINING. AND stop sounding so much like trumpler the king of Kraznovia.

Everyone knows this if u live in toronto, immigration officers are incompetent and 10 yrs late.

Im an immigrant and after living for awhile in canada I noticed that Canada is not longer what it used to be, Indians hired Indians and some of them have issues either other cultures, Canada is Doomed, Im happy I left

We need a city in the far north designed for immigrants. Somewhere we can keep an eye on them. I am not talking about a gulag, they will be free to work, earn income, and lead productive lives. Let the first generation acclimate to our laws, languages and customs, while their papers and statuses are processed. Of course they’ll need a place to put the trouble makers. A federal super-max prison where they can be held for their trials, with the understanding that if convicted they will be deemed inadmissible and deported back to their home country, then put on a no-fly list.

I've never seen so much disdain for immigration in Canada in my 42yrs here. Now seeing our standard of living tank while we are giving benefits, food and housing for migrants for years. We pay taxes, and suffer and try not to starve.

Look, nobody said that Chinatown, SF was supposed to be European or that Manilatown, Vancouver to be white. Brampton is a Little India, and you can complain all you want... once you show the proof that you entered with your Inuit Visa, oh wait they were killed by you and yet you complain when legal immigrants come. They contribute to the culture of Vancouver, Toronto but you just love to point out Brampton when 0.01% have even seen the place, let alone lived there.

The elephant in the room is the fact that the majority of immigrants come from one country. As someone who proudly escaped Canada I understand the difficulties of adapting and integrating into another culture. It is difficult and it would be far easier if there were just so many Canadians here that none of us have to adapt or learn a new language but could simply live in an insular community of Canadians and transplant our own culture here. When I go back to Canada I see that that is exactly what has happened there.

I just read a story that over 851,000 immigrants have left Canada on their own because of the high cost of housing and living conditions here , and won't this solve the problem when it comes to immigration in the country . Should have asked Kenny who is going to pay his golf plated pension when the population starts going down and there is less taxpayers paying into the system when we start having a major population decline .

come on guys....what's with the rhetorical nicety's....forget about the lowering of GDP, standards of living etc.....you didnt even mention how every hospital in Ontario is overwhelmed because of excessive un-scrutinized immigration....people on gurneys in ER aisle waiting to be seen...people need to say enough is enough

A lot of immigrants who had skills in demand, after 5, 10 years decided to go back where they came from due to cost of living vs income. Housing for example in Canada is steep. Some left for USA, better pay, lower housing costs. Those that do not have skills in demand, having a job, it's pay is worth the cost of living pain.

A cheater must be cheat in one way or other...you create a program,make its look so attractive and easy to take aways the best doctors,nurses and so on into your first world...you are taking best of them into your country both their natural resources god take bless them. You too every good they have into your country america/Europe..you make their country look like ghetto and make yours look like paradise right ?so let me ask you this question please...isnt a crime for some living in ghetto later decide to live in paradise?go to India/africa all the best of the country have run to amarica and Europe...our police are corrupt..money made for their citizens to survive they will steal it hide it in western world,buying alot of properties all over the globe... All this issue is what world leaders have to address without that immigration problem will never stop...until today i still believe the law of nature...nobody is illegal

People complaining do not acknowledge that Canada created a corrupt system where educational institutions made money from foreign students, foreign students in return were happy as long as they got to work. At least they are willing to work and pay taxes. In fact, we should look at the root cause of these problems. It is the colleges making money off these immigrants, it is the corporations who do not want to pay decent living wages to Canadians so they are hiring these immigrants at minimum wage jobs. This is called capitalism where the corporate has to save as much money as possible for their shareholders. So yes immigration is a huge problem but immigrants alone are not at fault. The fault lies with the government (federal, provincial and municipal) and the corporate entities in Canada as well.

I live in Brampton born and raised. Indians are generally nice people but this new generation of immigrants that came around covid time were different. Working at places like Walmart now feels like a job not meant for us Canadians. Entire work place blasting Punjabi music and speaking in another language. Imagine feeling foreign in your own country while trying to work.

This video is only made to appease the whites and it is evident Whites claim Africans are slow when they themselves live in delulu that they’re natives of US and Canada😂, whites just like Indian Africans or Chinese are immigrants the only difference is them being in majority population

I live in Ontario, canada. I am an immigrant, but I think the title is fake news. Canadians are 100% united against mass immigration. I don't know if this narrative is politically motivated or bought. It's not true.

Most Canadians are not against immigration. We just took too many immigrants in there wasn’t enough places for them to live. It wasn’t fair to them or the people living here. Things had to change. It’s not that we don’t want people coming. It’s just that we have no housing housing has to increase by millions of unitsand we were in the process of doing that right now.

For you to know there are many white people & families coming & living in India nowadays. This video is aimed at degrading a community openly. Managing Immigration is a government responsibility.

She didn't work in her field for 1 1/2 year as a new migrant. TELL US. How long should we pay for immigrants to live and not work for. She's saying 1.5 years is not enough. So we have to feed them for 5-10 years before they contribute? I WANT PAID VACATION IN HAWAII TOO WITH EVERYTHING INCLUDED. Why am I not getting it? I've never spent 1.5 years not working and I'm 38 years old. WTH

Lets hope the grandfather clause goes through. I'm all for restricting immigration, but lets not kick everyone out and ruin their lives.

True Canadians want lower immigration. The only ones that don't are foreigners living in Canada and neoliberal globalists. Canada has a population of about 41 million people right now. Only about 28 million are actual "Canadians".

To be honest this is something all political party’s from across the spectrum agree with in Canada at the moment, we literally have no housing . We the Canadian Tax payer have been footing rbe bill to keeo these immigrants/ refugees in rather nice 3/4 Hotles for the last few years . I’m a farmer who lives in the county but the closest city to where I live is Windsor and for the last 4 ish year the Government was hosting them in Five Hotel's across the city . It got to the point where it was cheaper for the government to BUY the hotels then rent all the rooms , so that’s what they did … No I’m all for helping people but that is kinda pushing it don’t you think ? There are no jobs for them , no homes for them , etc . We have been in a trade war for the last 2 years with the two largest economies in the world and we need to focus our economic power on thous conflicts at the moment and if the world like it or not fighting that is out top priority and everything else comes second .Even with out that fact Our former government overloaded what our ability’s where capable of handling . We have a pretty advanced social care network but these new folks who have never payed a dime into it and are living off of it for years with the government having no real plan on how to deal with it is just to much , with our with out the economic conflict we are currently in . The facts are the facts and we live in reality, anyways you guys all have a good one , cheers .

Reduce pressure on housing”? Please. Three houses on my street are sitting empty, owned by wealthy people who don’t even live in Canada. That’s the reality on the ground. You can cut immigration all you want, and it still won’t fix the housing crisis. And let’s be precise: immigrants are not the same as migrants. Canada has high levels of legal, permanent immigration, but very little irregular or transient migration compared to other Western countries. The problem isn’t people needing homes. It’s homes being treated like safety-deposit boxes for the global rich. Empty houses, speculative ownership, and capital parked in real estate do far more damage than newcomers ever could. Blaming immigration is just a convenient distraction from the real issue: housing has been turned into an investment vehicle instead of a place to live.

As a Canada who speaks both French and English and who follows politics quite closely, I have to say that the headline and some of the reporting here is quite misleading. A reduction in immigration has broad support across Canada. I wouldn't say that notion is dividing the country in any significant way. You do have certain industry groups that disagree, but among the population these reductions have broad support. This is a historic change in public opinion in Canada, but it has been driven by the unprecedented increase in immigration under the last term of the Trudeau government. To put this in context, non-permanent residents in Canada numbered around 1.5 million on Q3 2023, but by Q3 2025, that number sat a just over 3 million. The previous government increased immigration targets by 3 or 4 times over what they had been for years, which caused a number of economic issues. Essentially, the volume was simply too high for the economy and society to support. This was unfair to both Canadians and new comers, many of which could not find employment or afford a decent place to live. The changes being suggested are largely bringing Canada back to what the targets were for over a decade before, though a bit lower to account for the sudden surge. Canada remains one of the most pro-immigration countries in the world. However, and this is where I think DW's reporting is misleading, there is a distinction to be made between policies at the federal level and policies at the provincial level. Immigration, per our constitution, is a federal matter, however, Quebec in particular is distinct from other provinces. I don't mean only culturally and linguistically, but also in the powers that have been devolved to it by the federal government. On the question of immigration, Quebec has more powers and more ability to set its immigration targets and programs than any of the other 9 provinces. The particular program discussed here, the Quebec Experience Program (PEQ), is a particular immigration stream that only existed in Quebec. So what is happening with that program cannot be labeled as a whole-of-Canada thing. Where the changes to the PEQ are controversial, unlike the general changes at the federal level, is that people who immigrated under that specific program were promised certain things. There was a multi-year time line to Permanent Residency and then Citizenship. Many of those people have been in Quebec for 5-8 years already. However, the changes made to the program were done in such a way where people who many years into the program, had gotten an education, started a career, had children, ect. are now being told they can't continue and must leave Canada. There are even stories of people who married Canadians, now have children, and the one parent who was under this program now faces the possibility of having to leave Canada and be separated from their family. All through no fault of their own. That is what many people see as unfair, and I agree, however limiting future applications under the program, to bring in less people, that is not controversial. Canada has no responsibility to bring in people who are not already in Canada, but Canada does have some responsibility towards people who uprooted their lives to move to Canada and built new lives here based on promises and representations made to them by the Canadian and Quebecois governments. We should no simply kick those people out of the country.

I wonder if it’s really like in the US? Ya know blame immigrants for the strain on resources when actually it’s corporations making billions whilst not paying a living wage and whatnot. Cause billionaires need more mansions and yachts?

Yeah and we all know who is to blame for this. Justin Trudeau, Sean Frasier and Marc Miller. Funny how politicians in this country aren’t held responsible for the bad decisions they make that seriously affect Canadian lives. Canadians have lost their homes and their jobs because of mass immigration.

I live in a medium size city in Canada I’m not gonna say the name of it, but it has in between 100,000 and 400,000 people but where I live it seems to be 30% Indian immigrants and I am not racist one bit but it it seems to be more immigrants, then are actual people that lived here before and it just seems to be like the city. I’m living is changing so fast. And it seems like it’s doubling every year I think it’s projected to be a million people by 2050 and less the 300 thousand people live here so

why put so much focus on a poor guy with obvious mental problems is not fair to the population living in that city. But ya, we can not disagree, East Indians are taking over that place, and many other places in Ontario. Not their fault I would say, but a really badly managed immigration fuck up thats not gonna end well I fear.

Man you’re a pig 🐷! India has many many languages cultures and types of different ethinic groups . Yes they’re are very primitive cultures in india also and very modern people also in the millions some are very poor and some middle class some very rich but you cannot put them all in one basket just like the western countries you have incest inbred people , look at small towns they’re full of inbred people worshiping snakes in churches in some southern states some have sex with animals like dogs and some live with dolls 😂, satan worship and sacrificing for rituals etc….. you cannot judge a society like that . Indians in general are very successful immigrants if you look at the charts but yes there’s some bad apples in all communities . But just like west is not one society but a mixture of many cultures and languages and taboo cultures , india is same like that big country with many different ppl . 😂😂😂

Imagine if this same interview happened back 500 years ago, when people actually asked native Canadians about white man's immigration! On thier land, humans do migration for a better living, it called globalization, those who don't understand this are not just uneducated, but also have a disgusting mindset, who only judge people based on their skin color!

I a Canadian don’t have an issue with Indian immigrants I have an issue with immigrants who don’t work and live off The government and our money, but thank you for speaking of this
