Please don't say indian I feel ashamed, the so called invaders are from punjab which is the north part of india who speaks Hindi. We are from south most tip of india :kerala we don't invade any country we blend with other country's culture. And we speak "malayalam" as our language. India does consist of 28 completely different states and 22 plus different languages. Everyone is different in their culture and language spoken and the food itself. And I am also sad I came to canada from kerala to get a foreign exposure but sadly I saw more punjabis, gujaratis and many hindi language speaking north indians more than canadians😢. We keralites get the racism not from canadians but from these so called Punjabis and gujaratis the hindi speaking people. Its awful

Indians are the most disgusting, awful, destructive people the west has ever seen.

lmao well you saw all those Indian CDL drivers who were killing people bc they were given CDL’s without actually passing the test and then getting hired by these indian owned trucking companies. They are awful drivers.

What an awful people. They don’t like us. They cannot be integrating with us. I think they may be working as bingo cards…

You know who hates Indians the most? Other Indians. 100% honest truth, I worked with many Indian dentist and they blatantly said straight up "we want a white receptionist and assistant" then they offered me $8 over my asking wage. I don't mind Indians at all. They are hard working people and don't usually create problems. The Somalis are horrible. They have ZERO etiquette, manners and a complete disregard for anyone but themselves. I moved cities to get away from them because they have like 8-10 kids. They all just make kids for child benefit money and sit at home on welfare. They are ALL on welfare. Those on ODSP work under the table while on a disability benefit. The government is dumb as hell for bringing so many. Nice cities have become shit holes because they're dirty and don't care about their communities. They're just awful.

As a Canadian, one that lives in GTA at that. Thank you for this video! We have two first languages (French & English)..yet speaking Punjabi is now an asset. Tim Hortons & McDonald’s used to be for our youth…now they can’t get jobs. The one thing we all loved growing up is the fact that our country was so diverse/multicultural. So many people actually born here either move further or have been leaving the country because theres damn near no more Canada. I’m just glad someone finally made an actual video talking about this 🙏🏽Not everyone is a problem, it’s really the past 3-4years that have been awful

its awful. and they are also very disrespectful people. not only that, they ONLY hire within themselves while also receiving special incentives from the government. pathetic.

I used to work in sales. Every single one of them will go out of their way to haggle against fixed prices. Wasting time demanding favours and deals. They constantly try to screw you over. They favour their own over you and are blatant about it. Once you look into their izzat system, everything makes more sense. They are not compatible, they don't want to be. They smell awful, act awful, and then pretend to be surprised when people don't like it. Often literally retarded. Brazenly two-faced.

Good journalism, both sides being presented here, the reasons why it happened, the stereotypes. While I don't really have a strong opinion about Brampton being mostly Indians, I do have an opinion that Canadians should condemn other areas as well that are majority of immigrants. Vaughn area is filled with Chinese people no one makes a fuss about it. They ain't speaking english, they aint serving American junk food everywhere, yet Indians are a problem. The community has vices, but justifying xenophobia with that is awful. European descendant people came here and took over native Canadians. Can't think how it must've felt for them. That was unarguably way worse than the current immigration system. My point being its a problem against a specific community is not really being uncomfortable for the sake of the country but purely out of spite and racism. I can see the concerns but not when they stereotype every Indian.

Wow the white people in Brampton seem awfully racist.

See the issue with multi culturalism is that “like people” tend to stick with “like people”. It’s human nature… for instance, when I go to school or the break room- I sit with my friends. I interact with, socialize outside of the current setting - because that’s where we are comfortable. Everyone in life chooses to be comfortable, as it’s better. When we mass immigrate (especially from one country) we can’t be surprised that this happens. Of course Indian people do business, socialize, real estate, etc… with other Indian people. It’s what they are comfortable with. I think mass immigration is an awful idea and a culture that doesn’t encourage assimilation and chooses multi culturalism will find that it’ll no longer be multicultural- as the new dominate culture in Canada will be Punjabi.

It was an awful sneaky way of getting rid of Canadians born here. No concentration camps with firing squads & ovens,, lots of poisoned food even barely affordable & poison prescriptions & refusal of medical care because you’re old… Yah sneaky way of performing a genocide. Typical liberalifascist government I quote Trudeau on the open borders immigration strategy; ‘The very concept of a national founded by European settlers is offensive to me. Old Stock white Canadians are an unpleasant relic & quite frankly replaceable. And we will replace them.’ So you tell me what group of people do they want dead?

The biggest problem is they come to our home to escape a hell in their own country. But then they try to turn our country into the one they ran from. They try to change the ways we who were born and raised here are aloud to live our lives as we always have. My first job ever was tim hortons. Now im watching teens unable to gain independence unless their parents i Know someoneone who can hire them meanwhile no one can understand the person taking their order at tim hortons...Canada is to expensive now and we dont have the means to support these people anymore. Its costing us more with what they have done to our economy . Some of these people have zero care for human life ether they drive like A holes and cause accidents that cost lives. Canada is no longer a welcoming happy country. We are exhausted from busting our ass to keep a roof over our head leaving us unable to afford other things even food. Its not that they are all awful people (some are) but we CANT support them anymore we need to be able to support ourselves again !! The last 2 prime ministers are also to blame in reality. As an albertan i dont even care about anyone east of manitoba because they chose to vote this reality to life. I wanna see western canadas money stay on the west end of this country. There is a canadian divide and its time to seperate so not every canadian has to suffer for the stupidity out that way

I’ve read a lot of comments from people saying “Trudeau ruined Canada” in response to people expressing their support for Trudeau in this time.\n\nThat’s not really a great point.\n\nIf Trudeau hasn’t been good for Canada, but gives a coherent, inspiring, and professional speech in this moment that unites Canadians and others alike, then that should speak so much to how awful this situation is. Huge respect to Trudeau and Canada for not backing down. I hope one day we’ll be allies with the right side of the world again.\n\nWe wanna talk about a leader ruining a country? That’s what Donald is doing right now. Except he won’t unite us in the future with a speech like this.\n\nThis American stands with Canada!

And this is just awful for the people we’re just stuck in the middle of a government fight , government power struggle but we, the people are the ones that are gonna be suffering and paying the price for this war between government

Cool. So what we told people would happen has started to happen. Even after we campaigned against it. God this is so awful.

Nah, speaking like Americans would do something, those people will do a couple of TikTok’s complaining and nothing else. They are not and will never be able to strike against their awful system

Hilarious. An anti democratic leader who has proven to be Pegasus the most single awful Canadian leader. \n\nYou're not polite... you called your own people Nazi's.\n\nLiterally had no idea what he is doing.

Trump is a treat from world stability. American people, especially Democrats should demonstrate ad do pressure. It is awful and disgusting to see the US getting along with Russia and despite its historic European allies and nice Canadian neighbors.

For a city that suffered the most awful terror attack in history, it sure seems like they don't care who they let in. Of all the places that one would think might be overly cautious about the safety of it's citizens and who they let in, I would think NY would be super diligent about vetting these people!!

Venezuelans are awful people. If you don't help them, they feel like they can force you to help them.

These comments are awful. You should feel blessed people like her put their lives on the line so you don’t have to.

This really sucks ?? why are they putting handcuffs on those people. They're not terrorists or murders this really awful. Now india need to learn from this incident. However that's really awful handcuffs and with chains like they're all slaves damn

Thank for your service Commander! “Bone Spur” and the MAGA right are using Transgendered Americans just like the Nazi’s did Jewish people in WWII! By providing a focus group to hate they diverted attention from the awful treatments and perverted policies they were implementing.

It sucks I Donald Trump continues to create enemies with our neighbors. I don’t see this as a positive outcome at all because he might need our neighbors at some point in time and they’re not gonna be there to help us. It’s gonna be like a slap in our faces And they’re not taking the deport back in Columbia that he sent over there. The people’s dignities was taken away from them. They came there all handcuffed, and and he treated them in a very degrading way according to the report that I read to the Midas touch and it’s just awful

True! West won't answer your question but You too are hiding significant details in this video. Also true, West relies in Indian talent however that does not mean the talented ppl should be above the social construct. In US DFW airport as soon as you exit the airport premises you will start smelling awful odor, walk few steps ahead you will see the reason, all the poles are covered with a grainy red paint like stuff, which as a proud Indian, you would definitely know what it is. Its not like the administration don't clean the place, however, it is still in that condition. This is just 1 of many reason why Indians are being looked at as nuisance these days. Also, what is with Indian mindset to turn everyplace into India, yes culture, tradition and diversity should be welcomed, accepted, and tolerated but if your behavior borderlines with colonizing then, things will head south very fast and that is what most of the Indians do. And finally, what is with Indian behavior, if they are treated with respect they misunderstand it with being submissive and try to dominate the people that are being respectful until they are shown their place and if they are misbehaved then they act as if they are being discriminated. So as a media person, it would be a good thing if you publish a video telling Indians to learn ethics, learn social sentiment, learn proper behavior, and most of all learn to quit back-stabbing behavior before they leave for other countries and I believe in a decade or two these misfortunate events will slowly start to decline.

Many times these Indians being that awful caste system with them, and create racism within their own people.

Awful people we don't want them give them no more of our tax dollars

Thank you for summarizing these key changes! Many problems are actually the Canadian immigration system not learning from the mistakes of the US system and now it’s suffering the same consequences. If Canada cuts down on those selected immigrations but still takes in refugees, it’s only going to make anti-immigrant sentiment worse. Selected immigrants are allowed into Canada to help alleviate Canadian issues…or at least people who come through Express Entry are less likely to become a burden. On the other hand, refugees, given their unfortunate circumstances, really need to rely on a lot of social services and resources to help them resettle. The US has eliminated pretty much all non-humanitarian immigration that’s why immigrants are so demonized there. Americans only feel the drags of refugees and asylum seekers (even though ethically we need to protect them) and there is no selected immigration to balance that out. Yet this round of Canadian policy change is heading exactly that direction.\n\nIt used to be international students in Canada are not paying a lot more tuition than Canadian students. But Canadian universities saw how much money universities in the US are making so they asked the federal government to change the policy to enable them to charge international students several times the regular tuition (whereas in countries like France, international students actually pay less than citizens). So now Canadian universities rely too much on international students to operate and it becomes an exploitative relationship even before students step foot on the campus. The new PGWP eligibility is awful because students can make contributions in every field. It might (and that's a big if) address the pressing problems, but it won't help Canada grow.\n\nI thought the new language requirement was interesting. Some Canadians who immigrated decades ago when the bar was really low still speak English poorly and now they are saying people can’t come to Canada because their language skills are not sufficient. Another point about language is if you apply through Express Entry now, even if you scored the highest language score, given how competitive the pool is, you still won’t get selected. So it’s a given that you need to be fluent in one of the languages at least to get an invitation. Express Entry also selects only the top people, I saw the head of The Institute for Canadian Citizenship in interviews talking about those top-tier people only expect the best treatment/lifestyle when they come to Canada. That's why many of them leave after seeing these Canadian problems play out. But I believe a good Canadian life is not about living in a high rise in Vancouver and Toronto, driving an expensive car, or buying luxury items...it's about the communities, nature and middle-class comfort. So the system is giving PRs to the wrong kind of people (just like mismatched people when hiring that don't align with company values).\n\nThis brings me to the last frustrating issue. There were so many people who attended “fake” universities and bought “fake” jobs to earn points to get an Express Entry invitation. And it's clear that the government wasn't proactively catching these abuses. They are taking up spots from those who try to earn the points fair and square. If I understand correctly, Canada doesn’t send these people away if they are found out (since some of them were scammed). So they still take up immigration quotas.\n\nI have wanted to move to Canada for a long time. I have visited Canada many times, hiking trails through the coastline and fjords, climbing mountains and glaciers. I lived in Montreal for two months to improve my French and I was told by my homestay family that I was the first student they had who didn’t complain about the cold (I wish the winter never ends so I can skate or xc ski in the parks year-round). I have probably seen more Canada than many Canadians and I love every bit of it. But the opportunity for me to even get a shot to move there is pretty much nonexistent now. If only there was a way for the system to allow people who really care about Canada to get a shot at being part of this beautiful country.\n\nThank you for making these videos.

They want to use the argument that the land was stolen from the indigenous people? Sure that was awful, but it also happened over 100 years ago. We now have an established country with laws. Doesn't mean you can come here, shit on our welcome mat and demand rights. It's hard not to get angry with these people but they have become entitled little fucks who think they have the right to be here. You should kiss the ground you protest on. Living here in a privilege not a right.

Well, she must be an awful president, that her people cant wait to get away from her.. What a bully she is... Guess what u*ly woman, we are about to tax the f**k out of every piece of everything that comes across our border. Mexican Americans AGREE... \nReply

New Brunswick is awful. Native French population gets the jobs even if you speak French, it’s boring and tedious with lots of dumb, unambitious people who control newcomers by assassinating their character (Korean gas station owner puts water in their tanks, the economic development guy from Ontario is a pedophile etc etc). What you save on home prices, you pay with your mental health and boredom.

And in 40-50 years, when the American boomers fade out, we can look back and be forever be thankful this spoiled, despicable, selfish generation is gone. Awful awful people (most of them) and history will remember them as such

She’d be awfully surprised to find that the white people around her don’t consider her American.

The plan is particularly cruel and it looks to be extremely racist in nature. It looks as though it is going to cost $10K per person to deport them so why not offer people $10K per head if they will leave voluntarily? However, can the USA afford to lose all these people? There will be massive job vacancies that cannot be filled, so many businesses will have to close down, causing hardship to the business owners. Perhaps the first step should be to find out why these people are considered to be such a drain on America's economy. It seems to me that they make a massive contribution. That being the case, why not make some criteria which, if met, will allow people to legalise their presence in America?\n\nAnything must be better than mass incarcerations and deportation which looks an awful lot like Nazi Germany.

Too little, too late CNN. You abandoned the American people during the election, but now seem awfully keen on reporting the truth all of a sudden. Thanks for sending us all downriver, just to pad your own ratings ??

She doesn't realize how *brutalizing FORCED MASS DEPORTATIONS* would actually be. She must believe that all white people are such *wonderful ANGELS.* ?\n\n??OMG, tRumpism is such an awful *TRAVESTY!* The sociopaths and charlatans of the Reich-Wing don't care about this woman or her relatives. ?OMG, this is making me sick. ???? \n\nThe -GOP- gQp are sooooo *MESSED UP!!!?* With their *IDOLATRY* of tRumpism. **smfh**

interesting I live in the US, and we have the same problems here homelessness, drug overdoses, and high taxes, some states have higher taxes than others, home prices are skyrocketing, and no new homes are being built. no new low-income housing. Just a real shortage in housing period.. Yet, we have gotten so many immigrants from all over the world flooding here. I can't understand why they come. We have terrible medical care. Public schools are awful so glad I do not have children. I ask myself has the whole world gone crazy? COVID closings& forced vaccines, insane people out there driving like well like they are insane. I find myself staying home safe in my yard. Wondering why you moved to Canada? What made you think it would be happier than your home in Singapore. Which I know nothing about btw.

Canada should put 5 year temporary stop on International students from any country in world! This is will settle the excess that has got in and after 2029, Canada should resume International students. This will fix job crisis as it is imposible to get a job at Tim Hortons, AW, Subway and all franchise businesses. Just 5 year ban on any student who is not Canadian. This ban should be done in very thoughtful manner without insulting any country, citizenship, race, gender or anything. Sometimes you have to clean entire house and in order do that you have to ask people to stay outside house for some time.

This is an awful culture with guns and sores as religions symbols, this people they can’t never been Canadians, THEY HAVE TO LEAVE AND BACK TO INDIA!!’

Look at him talking like a joker. I am Indian too but not one of them punjabis. They are ruining our country image. He is displaying posters but can’t explain it how pathetic!!! Don’t bite hands which feed u. Awful bunch of people

We need to get rid of property management companies and have the provincial governments take over all housing. These slum property management companies are getting away with way too much. Jacking up rents, not maintaining the buildings, having people living in bedbug, cockroach and mouse infested apartments. It's awful out there.

Ppl do awful things. Indians and Canadians. Everyone. I love India’s people. Kindest and lightest hearts. I’ve taught many nationalities and I find people from India to be my favourite. In many ways. Welcome.

? Germany pay is awful, taxes are high, place is boring and cold, gloomy weather, people hardly smile, car is very expensive, hard to get an apartment, lots of red tape, positive is food is cheap. First world country: free healthcare and education. But happiness??? Nah! No way!

Because the culture is awful perhaps? Some of the most oppressive, mean-spirited people I’ve ever dealt with.

The lobbygroups of hyperwealthy landlords that despice immigrants but are even more addicted to extreme housing prices and grazy demand will use their phone numbers in the Government to keep the gates open. Many immigrants have to bring alot of money and skills just to enter the rat race on the lowest level and be ripped off in pay dumping and rent hiking schemes. In the end everyone depending on income and on housing on rent or credit is put against each other while some make a awful lot of money doing nothing.\nAt least it would help if the create a sheme where people have to sign up to staying in places in the West for a couple of years where hands are needed.

Why would black and brown people all want to come to a country as racist and awful as the US? Hmm…..?

The prices of plane tickets in the U.S. may be better than in Canada, but I have to admit that whenever I flew with an American airline, the comfort was AWFUL. There was almost zero leg room in the economy seats (and I'm a skinny dude of medium height)... I can't imagine how awful it is for taller or especially fatter people (and let's face it, a lot of Americans are). Maybe I just got unlucky, but it felt like they were trying to jam pack as many flyers as possible for maximum profit... So horrendous comfort as a result.

There are an awful lot of indian people here now. \nI am all for CONTROLLED immigration, but when it becomes mass immigration then we begin to have a problem.

Love the 'Talking to the People' format....thanks for bringing awareness to the dilemma. Canadians never used to lock houses or cars.\nNoone stole stuff, and we like exactly that kind to society of trust and honesty. \nIt's not ok to bring thieving to Canada....although it is atm a societal issue, rearing its' awful poverty head. Make things affordable for all, not just 1 percent raking in all the dollars. Share and distribute and fund some joy. ty
