I can't wait to get to Canada been in US my whole life

It’s sad and disgusting to read the comments by all these privileged entitled little bit.ches who’s greatest accomplishment in life was being born on a different part of the the world than this man and they feel they have the right to open their mouths with such righteousness. What would you do for your family or at least for yourself if you were born in a country where there was poverty and crime every single day of your childhood. This guy was MAN enough to risk his life to leave his country leaving family behind just so that he didn’t die. And I know what your first ignorant comment is gonna be “he could’ve done it legally”. No he couldn’t because if he could I’m sure he would have done it. And he even tried to do it legally here in Canada and spent $15K and was denied. But here you all sit behind a keyboard all brave with your privileged entitled life judging a man who all he wants is a better life for his family. And to the “men” who are commenting and judging this man as “an everyday criminal” I guess you wouldn’t give a s.hit for your wives and kids if they were living in a dangerous and poor country or being sent back to an environment where you could potentially be killed the first week you’re back. I guess you would all just say “fu.ck them let them die”. You fu.c.king cowards.

this is canada, the banks should have a say in that

I another documentary that I saw that Hispanics are doing well in Canada

Look at Vice News cry because Canada isn't America's refugee dumping ground. We need to be selective with who we bring in because we only have a population of 35 million, even a small number of newcomers has a large impact on our society. \nSincerely, a Canuck

I would love to move to Canada or the US but sadly i don't have the qualifications or money.... or the new prerequisite to being allowed in.... I'm not brown :(

You need to accept that Canada, United States, and other countries do not want you. Take your loss and go back to El Salvador. Make your money back.

Illegal leeching is what I call them. No research on this trip. It’s called Self Deportation FROM AMERICA LOL \nTHIS IS WAY TO FUNNY TPS LOL. Canada will figure it out hope Canada isn’t broke and is allowed to keep their freebies. Omg Salvatore is just Fine.

Obviously he does lmao Canada sucks

I love the U.S.A. and think we're the best country, but Canada knows hockey is the best sport ever so I have to show them some love. ?

I could compared statistics all day, but some of the greatest counterpoints to Canada being better are the intangible attributes of the US. Academically, although Canada may rank higher on standardized tests of science or math, the US cultivates a culture of innovation, and the US is phenomenal at teaching students to challenge the status quo - the reason for so many cultural, scientific, technological innovations being done on American soil or by American minds. Furthermore, the culture in the US is irreplaceable - the amount of diversity, geographically, socially, demographically, makes the USA the great nation it is today.

Holy damn I feel bad for Canada glad my ass isn't there

Is it racist if I move from China to Canada, and want to live in predominantly white neighborhood? Because I admire European culture.

They have been fighting and killing each other for 1000's of years, but when they get to Canada they will change and be peace-loving, no they will unite and kill Canadians. You must submit to Allah infidels or lose your head.Read more Show less Reply     1

radical ismalic terror groups is invading canada .........9/11 will repeat world is going to seen that soon

I love those who stand up for others to risk there life ,I am a Pakistani lady living in Canada for 47 years ,lucky me on one say Any thing to me when they ask me where I came From ,I say Palistani My Look is confused them ,My skin coller tea colour !

Is bringing in more Muslim refugees into Canada a threat ? Well look at the UK, Germany, Sweden etc...on YouTube .There is your answer. Sorry but Stephen Harper was right on his position. Islam culture does not mix well in western cultures.

We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all men and women the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may. If you can not accept this statement and believe in Sharia law you do not belong in Canada.

Yes Canadian history books say there was no Slavery. There was some but it was very small percentage. The population in what became Canada was very small \n\nThere will always be prejudice, but \n\nLooking like an Albino isn't going to get you on a fashion Runway\n\nDrake is half Jewish...lets leave lying dogs to lie with this one. \n\nDwight Drummond --> was Token Black guy for CityTV after Jojo Chinto left -->\nHorrible choice, horrible voice, worst news Achor I have ever seen. And the sad thing is there was a lot of other talented black people out there.

This was quite interesting to me bc being a Black Man here in the states... I would have ever in a million & one yrs. thought racism or slavery existed in Canada. I am a person who LOVES learning new things on a daily even now at 28. I don't know all thats around me so coming across documentary's like this is Awesome... ?? #2ThumbsUp.

I think this whole thing stinks...if you do not want to accept a countries values and ways, don't show up...we do not want this crap in Canada...bottom line, I do not feel safe any longer in Canada for my children or grandchildren...send them back!

Canada has fallen? oh, no…

Go home Muslims. You are not safe. You should have come to embrace Canada not bring your own laws. Take your mask and go home.

islam shits on Christians and others now they cry that others don't like them fuck off when you come to Canada you should become Canadian not expect Canadians to become muslims.....  islam was always violent.   you wear burkas I don't feel safe you can stab me and get away with it just one little things show your fucking face

Canada rapidly becoming America

Canada is becoming the boot of islam in america\nStupid canadian liberals

Canada is a boring country and racist. They destroyed Libya

Horror in Moscow as burka-clad babysitter 'decapitates girl in her care' – then walks through streets carrying her severed head and shouting 'Allahu Akbar'\nSee what you say about this news...VIOLENT RELIGION then NOT a religion at all..? What do you say in Canada.... ?

Enjoyed the video. I sent a message to Hannah but she has not returned a message. I was wondering if you or anyone who is reading this would give me some answers. I live in Canada, retired and am thinking of moving down to the US to live with my husband's sister and husband. They are going to buy a house in Sun City, Hilton Head. I was wondering Derek if you had to get someone to sponsor you or did you just move there? Have you since gotten health care, I was wondering how much you are paying. I read somewhere also that you have to take your drivers test, written and driving test since most states do not acknowledge Canadian license. Any other suggestions would be much appreciated. If you or any of your readers want to email me, my address is copp12@hotmail.com. Thanks.

Nice video, Derek. I'm gonna add something you didn't even mention. Here in the U.S., there is the Patriot Act, and a growing Police State. Our liberties and Constitutional rights are being trampled by the day. Our privacy is being lost at an alarming rate, and there are more checkpoints than ever before, tighter security measures at airports than ever before, metal detectors even at high schools for students just to attend class, and worst of all shootings of innocent people by cops (often homeless, mentally ill, etc.) than ever before. I don't know for sure, but I don't think Canada has the degree of the same problems, and if they do, they certainly aren't at the magnitude that they are happening here in the states. Those shootings are about 2,000-3,000 just in the last year!! Please be careful, especially in California, and know your U.S. Constitutional rights if/when you get stopped on the road or anywhere else.

I honestly always wondered why anyone would move to the US from someplace like Canada that has better healthcare practices and stuff. (I've lived in the US my whole life and I think it's crap)

get ready CANADA you will have a big problem sooner with muslim immigration.

I do not see why we cannot get rid of the burka by invoking existing civil law of not wearing a disguise in public.  To hide your identity as a back robber would is not allowed.  This burka is pure craziness.  I will fight against its acceptance in Canada tooth and nail.

Let me rephrase the title for you. Muslims in Canada: Anti-Westerner sentiment shamefully ignored.

Awww....are Canadian Muslims 'feeling fear' because people are finally waking up to the realization that this is not a 'religion of peace'?   Well, if you're feeling that uncomfortable here in Canada, may I suggest your remove yourselves to a country where you can continue to practice your Neanderthal ways?  I hear there's lots of room in Syria these days.

Islam is a cancer & NOT only in Canada\nIt s a WORLD WIDE PROBLEM\nThese folks s need to be send back to their Muslim countries of origin & they can enjoy their culture at home\nOr they can migrate to a Countries such as Saudi\nMuslims expect tolerance from others while being the most intolerant religious sect.\nThey expect a liberal attitude from the host countries while themselves having most conservative religious attitude incl. those of the younger generations

THEY SHOULD GO TO LIVE WHERE THAT IS NORMAL. NOT IN CANADA.

If Justin Trudeau brings 25 000 Syrians , he basically will be bringing terrorism into Canada .

While I understand the anxiety the Muslim woman in the video feels, her accent is as Canadian as it can be which tells me she probably was born in Canada or came here as an infant. She's obviously had enough time to assimilate. She either has or hasn't. If she has, she's being discriminated against for no other reason than that she's Muslim, which speaks to a mindset that is being espoused by Stephen Harper. When your leader says the things he's saying it doesn't speak well of the country. It would be more honest if he blocked all immigration of Muslims to Canada, but then the Muslims would really have a case if other nationalities were allowed in. Given Canada's small population they're kind of stuck.

They don't get along with anyone, not even there own kind. If they turned all of Canada into an Islamic state they would still kill each other. This is not a religion of peace at all. Look up what is happening all over the world it's just a click away. For some strange reason Justin supports this. He is just as nuts as they are. Bring back the crusades.

why don`t u practice ur fuckin religion in ur fucking homes... Canada will never accept u

you choose to live in canada, then follow canadian way of life

Canada should deport this filth , they come to the west for a better life, take advantage of the goodness of the western governments , then they turn around and cuse them and call them KUFAR

When in Rome, live as the Romans do. If you don't like it, get the fuck out. The last thing we need here in Canada is the kind of situation Sweden is facing.

Remember you are in Canada. Its to bad the President of Australia was not here. I like the way she thinks and i hope Harper adapts her ways too. Its truly getting out of control. And we are going to suffer for it.

being muslim in Canada getitng harder?? NOT ENOUGH!

By this rationale, let's ban nuns and orthodox Jewish women from covering themselves too. Let's ban even non-Muslim women from covering their bodies. Harper: If you're not wearing short skirts or skin-tight clothing, you're an enemy of Canada.

There is no need for Islam in Canada.\n\nSince Canadian laws are superior to Islamic laws, Islam becomes redundant, and the only reason people cling to it is out of arrogance and cultural chauvinism.

Why are these people moving into countries like Canada, the U.S., the U.K., Australia,\nEurope, etc. etc.?? Make no mistake about it!! The reason for them moving into Western countries is FOR CONQUEST!! Fundamental 'muslims' believe the ENTIRE WORLD IS GOING TO BECOME MOSLEM!!!

Jihadis ur in canada please take off ur shit off ur head please!!
