*Excuse you*, Canada is a BIGGER, better version of what the USA is trying to be. BIGGER. More land mass up here, and it's really nice when it's not snowing. Maine seems nice, but most places are too expensive or too crazy. TYVM but absolutely not. I wouldn't trade my multicultural society for the world. Aside from the fruit loop fanatics, the gun laws and mass shootings, the ridiculous health care system that can't seem to provide care to people who need it, there's so much more about the USA to dislike. The rich dominate your society. The poor can't afford a college education and rich alumni kids don't even have to pass their courses. Some of your laws, like what constitutes rape in New York, are based on archaic thinking. Some of my relatives aren't white, and I worry about them when I hear they're thinking of spending time in the US. Seriously, we Canadians watch your movies and dramas where the plot is driven by something that isn't even an issue up here, and we're just, head shake, nope, no, nope.

White people need to take their country back and go after these people and send them back to their third world dirt countries to worship their cows

The health insurance you get through your job often won't pay for long term care, often won't pay for long term illnesses. And if you can't work, and need your plan, you're pretty screwed. That's why Saint Jude exists in the U.S., one of the best hospitals and charities in the U.S., that pays for children's uncovered long term cancer care. Brutal you need a charity to pay for dying children with cancer. Should be a right, no? Maybe just me. And yeah, your media makes you fight with each other all the time. Men vs. women, black vs. white, right vs. left, constant fighting so you don't work together and demand better. It's pretty shit.

No, I agree with batshit crazy people! It’s all we see in the news in Canada. And when you mention there’s a lot of religion in the States, what you really mean is there’s only Christianity that dominates the country. In saying that, there’s less social reform in a Christian country than in a diverse country (Canada)? And history in the United States only covers U.S. history lol. You’re mental health help is almost nonexistent for the most needy, particularly those white boys who shoot up a school where bad things happened to them. People need to Pay More Taxes to support their families and communities!! Why are American people so afraid to help their communities, instead of just buying stuff for themselves?

Employers dont hire people without experience because of Justin Trudeau and his dam skilled immigration crap. Now there is too much skilled people looking for the same jobs. I went to a local job fair in a small building and it was overloaded with immigrants. There was only 7 employers hiring and in a room about the size of a classroom for 30 students. Yet there was 500 immigrants. You couldn't walk without pushing people. Even the hallways and the outside parking lot was crowded.... This is ridiculously way too much! We not to put a stop to the immigration and start making people go back to wherever they came from! And Justin Trudeau needs to be put in jail! I am a bilangual white french Canadian with perfect fluent french and english. I was born here in Ottawa and even i am struggling when trying to find a job and Justin Trudeau keeps trying to get more people in. That guy is seriously mentally unfit to be prime minister. He only got in because of his father's connections!

As (I am assuming) a straight, cis white guy, you maybe are not seeing the racism and other kinds of bigotry people experience. Also there were 51 school shootings in the US last year, dude, that's like 1 per week. Do you think they all happen in big cities? They don't. You have had 201 deaths in school shootings since Columbine in 1999. We have had 10 school shooting deaths in that same time period, and only 1 more than that in our whole history. None ever at at elementary school. You guys need serious change in your priorities and values in your country. ?

There are only two conceivable reasons for a Canadian to move to the US. \n1. is the weather. I don't think I need to explain why some of us get tired of winter for six months out of the year.\n2. is the money. If you're young, single, white, educated male, you can get some good jobs down there, but you're going to want to hold on to your Canadian citizenship for when you get sick.

The girl in the black need to stop talking over the girl or woman in the white are you the jealous type or want to be heard and nobody else talk stop doing that you probably don't know that you do that that makes people look at you real funny

Man y’all need to cut the shit… these immigrants are not hurting anyone… ALL of us are immigrants… fighting over land that God created for ALL OF US is beyond wild to me… America isn’t fucked up because of immigration, it’s fucked up because of (selfish white ppl)… period. Y’all talk about them fucking up our country like YOU , yourself are not part of the problem with this “nation under God” ? \n\nThis land was conquered & stolen by selfish white ppl and they’ve been killing us ever since… not the other way around. \n\nEdit: Don’t comment on my comment trying to argue me because I said wtf I said❗️⚠️

I new this was gonna happen soon America belongs to Latinos whites and blacks need to step to the side

Aren’t we fortunate in the US to have **none** of these problems!\n\nWe have no homeless here!\n\nTake a look at SF, LA (where all “solutions” are rooted in Bolshevism; “Hi, we’re from the government and will be taking over half of your front yard for homeless yurts (Ok, tents)--true story. Take a gander at any large, medium, and even a few small cities.\n\nHave you ever heard of Detroit (once proud home of my beloved Motown music), Baltimore (complete devastation), or Chicago (my home town—don’t make me cry)?\n\nThe entire homeless situation started when mental hospitals were snake pits and certain factions demanded that people be released.\n\nSure, it sounds humanitarian but they didn't bother to consider what would happen to mentally ill patients suddenly left to their own devices on the streets.\n\nThe do gooders actually were foolish enough to believe that the seriously ill patients (schizophrenic, bipolar, borderline, and plenty of others) would take their meds on their own. It doesn't work that way for patients who are not in contact with reality.\n\nNow we add extreme drugs (crack, meth, heroine, ketamine, whatever they hand out at parties, etc) and severe cases of PTSD/PTSS. It's obscene that we have veterans on the streets.\n\nHeath care--?. Pre Obamacare it wasn’t terrible but medicine had become a CYA project. We are so litigious (side eye to John Edwards ) that doctors practice defensive medicine and carry high limit malpractice insurance (guess who pays for that?). Every decision is driven by avoiding lawsuits, not proper patient care.\n\nPost Obamacare, US health care is an unmitigated disaster at every level. We’re short on doctors, too. Many quit and students are losing interest—medicine won’t pay enough anymore to justify $500K in loans.\n\nWe could repeal every bit of Obamacare tomorrow and still not be able to fix it. The leviathan grew tentacles that released toxins into every nook and cranny of the system. Now that they have buried themselves in critical layers, it would be impossible to yank them out.\n\nI have a good PCP who is booked 6-8 weeks out. Specialists? Hah. GI, neuro, and derm? Four to six month wait post referral.\n\nI never thought I would say such a thing but I would probably swap the Serial Sexual Predator occupying the WH for your Little Lord Fauntleroy.\n\nCan Canada compete with us in corruption? Government employees seriously tried to topple a sitting president and not only were there no consequences, they were able to retire on fat pensions that we citizens work hard to provide for them.\n\nOur government is run entirely by K Street lobbyists; our “representatives” don’t even draft legislation, that’s done for them by K ST.\n\nHow about crime? Do we even need to talk about it?\n\nHousing crisis? Prices were already too high when the regime (predictably) created runaway inflation and we saw the end of affordable interest rates. Even 0.25% increase will knock out many buyers; they won’t be able to qualify.\n\nWe are seeing huge jumps; young people have resigned themselves to never being homeowners.\n\nRacism? Again, look to the US. It’s nothing even close to what the make believe media caterwauls about. If white supremacists are behind every tree, where is the evidence? Surely, in 2023 has caught a cell phone video, right? Where are the videos? Show me the proof. There is plenty of footage of BLM destroying property and injuring, even murdering innocents. If we gripe about this behavior, we are raaayyyycccciiiiissssts.\n\nNo rational adult would claim that the US is not a violent country and becoming more so. Nor can we claim to have eliminated racism. That takes time; it cannot be done by force.\n\nOur economy went from smokin hot to dumpster fire in a short span of time. Pre election, head hunters were shaking the trees to find job candidates.\n\nOur unemployment is up as are our taxes with the stomping out of the tax cuts. \n\nDespite the endless sloganeering about how the Trump tax cuts only benefited “rich” people, it’s quite the opposite.\n\nHigh earners lost their pet deductions and lower income taxpayers were quite pleasantly surprised when they did their returns. The cuts were targeted to preserve wealth for the middle and lower classes.\n\nI could go on for another 100 pages but you get the idea and I get crabby writing for free.\n\nI will leave you with the caution that it’s best if you doubt and question any data and any stats coming from our government. Those are seldom legit. If the data comes from a study, always look to see who paid for it. And how large the sample size was; how were the participants selected? We are all on our own when it comes to ferreting out info.\n\nOh Canada!\n\nYou’re welcome.

Everyone says that America is all racist and full of white supremacists and evil cops that need to be defunded. So why would anyone want to go there knowing this???

This is Biden fault it was his ideas this is why he need to remove from the White House. He think he is a boss, but he is not.

I am a white Canadian. If you have really faced racism as a black person or non-white person, I would stand with you and support you.\n\nHowever I tend to be quite skeptical when it comes to charges of racism and white supremacy. But I'd be willing to hear specific examples of your personal experiences.\n\nIf some hostile person calls you the N word, then yes, that is racism. If you get pulled over for speeding, get fired from your job or don't get hired, there a lot more factors to consider before I would judge it to be racism. I would need to know the inner attitudes of the people you're dealing with.

It's funny to see so many comments of America needs to take care of ours first! Wtf are you in the same America. I'm in. We have been corrupt from Columbus. F we don't and haven't taken care of ours. Don't call the kettle black if you're white, Trump voter, never have done anything to stop racism, hunger etc. Don't dare say drugs because it's whites that started the opioid crisis by Greed and it goes on.

I tell people this all the time keep thinking you are welcome in Paris Tuscany Italy and Spain don't think China or Japan going roll out red carpet for your black skin either. You need a white guide everywhere today it's like VIP pass to restaurants clubs even some department stores. Till black people build it's own business , banks and black women no there places in a relationship nothing will never change. Only black men can raise their own sons not mothers. ?

I'm a white Canadian man and I respect African Americans we should respect one another we don't need to hate there is enough of that as it is

These people do not have red, white and blue running through their veins. They just want to drain the US dry and trash it to the ground. Why can’t these people use this force to demand and fix their homeland. Why? Because they know Americans can be lied to and be taken for wimps!!! But, some people need this to produce votes! What a harvest!

Honey it's like that all over even black people don't even like black people we don't have no Unity we don't have to go out of this country to see how our own black people treat us other than a lot of white people their are black people that don't like black people all these things you're putting down here that don't mean nothing to me because we are our own worst enemy everyday how black people treat each other how did Black movie stars and they all look down on each other I see it all the time when i would go to the church and see the gospel singers see how they are so uppity I don't need to go out the country all I know is that we are one of our own worst enemies I don't care about going to another place I know that some black people there that don't like each other either so you can't win for losing until the black people coming to Unity otherwise it doesn't matter

I grew up in Calgary, two hours south. I've dealt with it on many levels, sometimes blatantly obvious, most times a series of micro aggressions that make you want to explode and destroy everything when it happens. As much pain it's caused over decades it's made me stronger as well as smarter. I will also say this and I can stress this enough, because of the demographics most of my friends are white and THEY HAVE MY BACK. in almost every aspect life will throw at me, they're ride or die people, I can say this with the utmost confidence The difference for me between Canada and the states is I'm not fighting alone if and when a situation comes up, there's people I can call if needed. Canada has it's issues no question and I could easily go ballistic when it happens to me or anyone I know, but we're not as bad as the states. I believe you can be heard.

Bring us your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. You need to change the slogan on Lady liberty because a bunch of white supremest don't want to abide by it.

They all look so happy and emotional. \nThis should not have happened. The government needs to give free unrestricted access to these poor people. There is something called humanity. \nThe Spanish colonization completely destroyed the native American people, their culture, religion, language, economy and unnecessary meddling of the USA in Latin America toppling governments to establish USA puppet governments and Banana Republic policies of the USA, the millenniums of White man policies and involvement in their domestic matters have took a toll. \nFree and unrestricted access should be the only reparations USA can offer to these latin American people. May be also, the USA can make Spain to colonization reparations to boost their economy and stop this exodus.

White Americans need to stop being afraid of being called racist and fucking organize to stop this shit. These “people” are bringing our empire to its fucking knees

Stop giving white folk power, who gives a damn if they don't like us, We need to focus on our issues as Black people, stay together BLACK MAN AND WOMAN and dominate.

What have you done joe Biden I hope these people camp out in front of the white house that's where they need sent to

This is what happens when we have a president who absolutely does not care\n A president who has a gate around the white house as well as his beach house for protection. You see where his loyalty lies. We need Trump so bad right now.

Hey I already need 9 roommates to afford rent so guess I’ll try it with some essays! Good lord somebody set up Chris Kyle 2 miles away from the White House please

I’ve said once and I’ll say it again, if white ppl in Canada had the access to guns the way white Americans do we would have the same problems. This is the main reason why I make it point to post and speak on American politics. Black ppl are not safe/respected anywhere and we need to stick together.

She needs to get a life because it's not true at all. In fact, black people there are the ones more bigoted than some whites a chip on their shoulder. WS is a myth and many black people up here are doing just fine. As with any country, you have some issues, but for the most part, black people have more social acceptance in Canada than in the US. Phillip is clown going somewhere to happen....

What the us need to crack down on is this and ppl selling fake documents to these ppl with fake ssn fake names and fake dob that make them look like there documented ppl how hard is it to check these before hiring someone thats the problem in the us we have a flawed system and they know it if we focus hard on this they would not come here in bunches I thought I would never say this as a Hispanic but america needs President Trump back in the white house this os getting out of hand.

White Canadians are invading illegal settlers. They need to research their history

WS system has been alive in Canada for many years. It's global . Some places more, other less. Avoid living, visiting in predominant white areas and live, visit either black or diverse areas .HERES A TIP: BLACK PEOPLE NEED TO WORK TOGETHER AND BUILD YOUR OWN EMPIRE OR YOYR OWN INDIVIDUAL EMPIRE. GET ALL THE TOP EDUCATION YOU CAN GET , IT WILL GIVE YOU CONTROL, RESPECT, AND POWER, WEALTH. BECOME LESS DEPENDENT ON THE WS. TAKE A PAGE FROM THE ASIAN. Thats why they are powerful

We are a citizen and we need to fight against the White House to stop this BS. Ridicules

It is a universal problem. Black people will have to demonstrate that they do not need white approval in order to prosper.

If we want to help ourselves, and feed, house and deal with the homeless problems. We will need to get Biden out of the White House.

At this point Americans who aren’t native need to be called second nation people , we built an empire for the globalists and now they’re done with us and they have our reemplacamientos waiting to steal everything our grandfathers built . The world loves everything we invented they just don’t want this world minority of 6 percents called whites as they question authority, expect something from government and cause most of the worlds rebellions.

This is a crisis.. what’s being done about this? Being someone who’s hispanic and white, I understand both sides to some extent and it brings a great deal of sadness apon me, but this can’t be happening. America needs to pull their head out of their ass and start making things happen.

Black prople we neec to build out Black supremacy strong and all this white, yellow, brown, blue. Green supremacy will salute and respect us. We need that Pan-Africanist mindset✊?

look bro .. be careful what you air .\n she is SPECIFICALLY talking about employees .\nAlberta is having economic issues and is predominately white . WHY THE HELL AREN'T ALBERTA BLACKS STARTING BUSINESSES ?\nBlack entrepaneurs need to be interviewed . NOT just employees . Of course employers are dicks . Always been that way .

Why do black people have to force white people to love them? Do black people love Asian and Hispanics? Why can't Black Americans create your own successful communities? Even Africans in Africa are standing up with backbones against the western oppression. Black Americans need to grow a ball. ?

Phil. This is why we need a massive push for reparations nationwide in the U.S.A, and Blacks of Canada who descended from Black Loyalist should be seeking reparation from British- Canada and then we need to start a mass exodus to a safe haven on the continent of Africa such Sierra Leone or Liberia where we can purchase land and collectively build our city and surrounding towns. We aren't making any progress by constantly telling each other of our experience of abuse dueto White racism. The only way we're ever going to solve this is to start planning our exodus and building our own away from them, And once we are away from them and have our act together we can then began discussing other matters in regards to maintaining our safety and security, even if that means dealings with others who have the ability to train us in how best protect ourselves from those who like creating problems all over the globe

All I can say to this sista is Thank you because folks she is speaking the truth. Canada the country as a whole has high levels of anti-blackness not just in Edmonton and not just by white folks. The worst thing is the others minorities or so called POC groups ally up with white against black people and it is a nationwide issue that we definitely need more people speaking up about their experiences. In addition to the fact that even Canadian Descendants of Slavery get discriminated against from our own black brothers and sisters who have come from other countries.

Would u stop with this ws crap! Ive been alive 45 years and have never met a white supremacist in america. Your gas lighting black americans to hate white people. Needs to stop bro...

Would this situation be the same if the White House was located in a border state? God bless those states. They are dealing with chaos because of a weak White House administration. These people on both sides need structure and be informed with correct information.

Stop blaming the migrants you ignorant fools,\nthey're our family\n\nBefore thinking about yourself, ask why they feel the need to rush in like this?\nHave you ever been so desperate for life that you've had to do something like this?\n\nAs a (white) veteran I wish we instead spent our Iraq resources on helping our neighbors in Mexico first\n\nThis is the movement, and I'm proud of their bravery

He’s talking bout the legal way you know how the white Christian man did it back in the day when they killed all of the Indians in the name of their god and our judicial system and cops still use that method today but for more selfish reasons then a god that doesn’t exist unless they need him too exist for there next scheme. I personally would remove his crown if I was tall enough, but I’m just a lil bald headed short fat white man

This is gods earth, not white, Hispanic or black. It revolves around money and that’s why people are mad. ALL THE AMERICAN PEOPLE NEED TO GO TO FLORIDA AND STOP BEGGING IN THE STREET. Exactly no one wants those jobs. ??‍♂️

1st time seeing this vid. White people love to hate it's more profitable than being decent. I live in Portugal while in Maxmat big box store yesterday I was profiled just the way I was looked at said all I needed to know how they felt. East weekend Ryanair helped a white family that had the very same problem with a boarding pass flight but the white women refused to help me. They investigated themselves and found they did no wrong which cost me expense and time. I believe i can can give you a story a week min. CBS do an update on this story I come with facts names places all details the law has ignored.

Canada ?? Canadians have a nickname in Asia ??white-trash need 30% discount ! and they hated Americans all ?

American Citizens are now 2nd class compare to Illegal immigrants who stay in hotels in NYC costing thousands for days but the black Latino and white citizens need to share a filty shelter...... ?????\n\nSure I really feel bad for this people but then I need to leave my children outside so some unknown needy person can come into my home, get shelter and then DEMAND PRIVILEGES that should only be for Americans?\n\nAmericans first ...... then if we can, we can help out others but our family first 1,000% and that is no racist or inhuman, that is just how any family would do it.....????
