Alberta! #1. With a fantastic premier right now. From the word of being stuck in Manitoba. And Quebec... is not the Best! Saskatoon is also right up there... beautiful and CLEAN. Town. Peaceful and a pleasant time anytime I've been there.

Great video. I grew up in Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA in the 50s and 60s. Life was absolutely idyllic. I loved being young in America. Now, I cannot recognize my home town. I cannot recognize my country. I cannot recognize our political system. It's like the worst of humanity has taken over the country. But, it's everywhere - Germany, Sweden, the UK, the USA, Canada - they're gone. WTF happened?

Dual citizen here. My property tax in a small town in Canada is almost $10,000/year. In Nevada, it’s under $1,000. I’ll gladly pay for private health insurance in the US.

Immigrants are so massive, that is scary mostly in big cities, we don't have this problem in the countryside. It is so rare to see new comers that had choose to work and live into 40 000 population city like mine. They are very welcome, we lack so much on workforce in every jobs and it is much more easy to find a place to stay. The biggest problem isn't immigration, it is those new jobs opportunities created when we still don't have workers to fill the gap elsewhere who need it most!\nAlso. immigrants to tends to choose living and working in cities as Montreal, Vancouver or Toronto. Canada isn't limited in those cities. Towns, countryside are options, the living cost of rent is lower, house cost less and driving 30minutes to 1 hour on the road to go work is what most does Canadian.

What else is new? White people left the cities to move to suburbs to get away from people of color. Then when people of color tried moving to those suburbs to offer *their* families that same higher quality of life, the might people moved to a different part of town and built a predominantly white community there! And so on, and so forth.

The Muslim people are going to come in to each community 1 / 1 and TAKE OVER THAT COMMUNITY 1 / 1 Expanding Throughout the entire towns & cities until they are in Majority of the government seats. Slowly, making it A Muslim Country Where YOU LIVE UNDER SHARIA LAW OR YOU DON'T LIVE ANYMORE

Stop talking about it just do it in silence, media gossips too much , President Trump , with GOP Senate, House Republicans, Judicial Branch must enforce immigration laws especially in sanctuary cities, towns , counties, across fifty states are nation is bankrupt.

CANADA WAS ALWAYS SMART. REMOVE GANGS FROM ALL SANCTUARY TOWNS CITYS COUNTYSAMERIXA UNITED STATES

what was not mentioned in this short video that should have been is proof that immigration is not causing the housing crisis. That is that the housing crisis now extends to small towns and rural areas. It's almost as expensive to rent in those areas these days. I know this because I have been seeking to move out of Montreal to a smaller town for the past 3 years and cannot find anything in my price range (been looking at rural Quebec and Ontario). \n\nHere's the thing, immigrants come to major urban centers like Toronto and Vancouver and to a lesser degree, Montreal. They do not go to rural areas or small towns at least, not in the first few years they're here. Given that, why does the housing crisis extend to small town and rural areas if migrants are not coming to those places?

As an Indian immigrant myself.. I hate to see what has become of Small towns and cities Specially Brampton becoming a menace. People should be allowed to keep their traditions but not at the cost of local values and laws… and I really wonder what law enforcement is at play when people are driving like crazy… \nPlazas and strip malls turning in to a complete mess in the evening … these were never a problem before… now the quality of immigrants have gone down. Coz Mr. Trudeau values quantity over quality…

Well, if the people that live in those towns would invest in themselves into businesses instead of always complaining that they have no resources…

How do you catch the non brown black illegals....please don't forget them because I know of one in my town

Many people have commented here to change India and make it livable instead of dreaming of Canada but let me tell you, ideally it is very welcoming and patriotic thought to make India top class country in the world in all respect but keeping current politicians standards, democratic model and caste & religion discrimination, it is next to impossible to implement changes. China has done despite massive population because it has hidden dictatorship and there are no inside traitors. Many entities within and outside India are doing their level best to break and shake India. \n\nI am from Canada, I just arrived in India on vacation. It disturbed me a lot to see trash and garbage everywhere ( especially on Kurla-Andheri-Mankhurd) on the streets from Mumbai airport, the town planning, landscape, traffic, road quality, people's civic sense (and many more things to mention) are in worst shape which is not a sign of good quality life. Especially when you enjoy lavish, luxurious, clean hygienic, sustematic life style abroad, you naturally tend tobe fascinated with that country, no matter how much patriotic you're. Somewhere people make the problem, somewhere government or governing bodies and somewhere both. \nForeign visitors must be experiencing what I experienced. That is why we Indians are always become victims of hate and criticism abroad.

We can’t save the world ?… there is a process for migration ?…just as ancestors fought wars for democracy —the migrants ought to have gathered their millions and stood for their rights in their country. Their corrupt governments thrive because the “millions” that left did not fight and stay in their lands ?. It seems easier to escape. Unfair to the people that have waited months and years to come here, also those that could be waiting to legally arrive have contributions to the USA… a lot have not practiced “planned parenthood”~~culturally have large families and continue to make babies when they can’t even feed the ones they have ?. We have enough uneducated, homeless and impoverished populations through out America. It is time to take care of our disaster victims, veterans, seniors, mentally ill, and homeless ?…Our towns are flooded with helpless humans and stray animals .,

I'm moving to Canada ... somewhere. It's very confusing. \nWhat would be nice would be a check off list for each territory (you could do it FIRST) with features. \nAccess to water within 10 miles \nCity library \nMuseum \nSnow removal \nGood schools \nPastry shops (I know this isn't a priority, but if you make the system easy enough people will do it for you.) \nRental prices more than 2,000 \nRental prices more than 1,000 \n \nGet the idea? \n \nI'm retired, financially well off, love reading, no kids (or grandkids) does Canada want me to move in, spend my money? Then make it easier. \n \n!I could click off my choices and have a list of small towns / villages.\n\nI have 6 pages of scribbled notes so far

Heres what some people dont understand about the illegals and the damage they do when they come to small towns of 20K people that small down is allowed a budget for 20K people from the government or state so when 25K illegals pour into that town that same budget has to care for 45K people instead of 20K people the budget doesnt change and it destroys that small town because the illegals eat through their resources hospitals get over run everything gets over ran and thats why they need to be deported!!

MAGA-NAZBOL Political Party ☠ Ghetto camps were specially selected areas where minorities were forced to live; where they were segregated, controlled, and dehumanized. Some ghettos had walls built around them, whilst others were marked out by barbed wire and electricity. They were nearly always in the poorest areas of town and desperately cramped with poor sanitation. As time went on, food restrictions were introduced and terrible conditions led to hundreds of thousands dying from disease or malnutrition, or the casual executions carried out by the Nazis.

Better than to set around and have americans killed and raped what the heck i rather fight than set around and watch kids and women get raped its not like its not happening its true this is disgusting to even let happen be a different story if it was harris or bidens kids getting killed or do we forget how she acted when texas started bussing them people to her town

Biden and Harris [had] FOUR YEARS...4 YEARS, to do something about the border. They did absolutely nothing. Trump is putting every illegal on notice. Its hilarious how many people are against this until these illegals show up in mass in your town and over take it.

I wish there could be more discussion about how understaffed everything has been since Covid It's a huge issue\nin my town and I have the impression it's pretty much everywhere.\nIt seems like we NEED people.....??? And how will Trump manage at Mar-a-lago where he FAMOUSLY hires undocumented\nimmigrants. I'm sure we won't hear anythng about that.\nHere we go...for a long ride downhill.

My town just got 2.5 million the other week for roads n bridges. To say money isn’t getting spent here is not true.

I moved here from France in 2000. It was always multicultural. But now its overun by Indians. We have china town in Toronto, but damn Brampton isn't little India, excpet it is because of the mass population of indians completly NOT multi-cultural.... Not to mention the lack of houses and jobs and we're supoosed to be happy that this is hapening?

If shootings at school is not on your radar or a topic of conversation, then I suggest that you’re extremely naïve and have your head buried in the ground, sir. You’ve had so many mass shootings in the United States over the past 10 years where children have been murdered in schools. They have been cities and towns that are small, isolated communities the one recently in Uvalde, Texas. Is a good prime example. Are you not even aware what is going on in your own country. I think you better concentrate little less on what’s going on in Canada and maybe learn about your own country. Your country is a total mess maybe not in your tiny little community where you live. Have you ever travelled outside of your own county? Based on the comments that you have made, I rather doubt it.

This is a big issue among the Latino community. Some are willing to turn their back on family, community, and their ethnicity to “feel” part of whiteness and exclusivity. It’s sad. The saddest part? They are still “the other” among the circles they so desperately seek to be a part of. Instead of backing bigoted, narcissistic and downright ignorant candidates… they should dedicate their time to immigration reform if they are so TRULY concerned about effective policies. What a joke. Take it from someone whose family was in Texas when the border moved below our towns… who’s great great great uncle was a Texas ranger, who’s father fought in the Vietnam war… you will always be the “other”. Take a lesson from Nicky Jam.

I live in Australia and there are towns that are exclusively Indian. It's insane.?

There have been 58 school shootings in the United States in 2024. 58. And nothing has been done about it. I know you say you live in a small town, but Sandy Hook was a small town; Columbine was a small town. It can happen anywhere where there’s guns. ?

may i please ask, what if you do not want to live in a city? i'd rather live in a small town.

I lived in a town called Salmon Arm in B.C for only 3 months with my girlfriend.\nBasement studio: $1200\nAverage weekly grocery run: $250-$300\nInternet: $120\nGas price: $1.83/L\nNot to mention the two taxes we paid on everything.\nBy the end of the month we were just barely surviving. \nWe moved back to Edmonton in my parent’s basement because we have no other choice right now. \n\nThere is nothing more humiliating then going out into the world and being forced to go backwards because the price for everything is ridiculous.

I support her sentiment. We Indians have created mess in Canada. (Speaking french doesn't make any difference) Indian mentality is the problem, Indians want to bring their way of life in Canada, shouting on the road, doing celebration in the public like they come from mental institutions. She is feeling right ! No Indians Tolerate even few foreigners we have in India. In my town there are only few whites and people tell them 'Go back to America'. Hypocrisy of Indians is highest when it comes to taking away their economy and still speak bad about West.

I doubt that why the immigration policy never send people to develop new cities, there are massive land and small towns can develop in Canada. Problem occurs because all immigrants sticked with big cities like Toronto and Vancouver, thats a chaos with 400k people move in those cities every year.

No one should make comments until actually VISIT Canada and see how many Canadian towns have been destroyed by Trudeau's open immigration policy. This is a REAL immigration problem!!! Its not a racism issue. I just traveled across the entire country from Quebec to Vancouver. It felt like a 3rd world country!!

These numbers are lies. Canada brought over 400 k in three months alone in the end of 2023.\nIt has be be at least a million a year. Just look around the town, city, wherever you live and tell me otherwise

It's gonna be funny when the ones ignoring this situation get 2 million Indians dumped in their towns

I looked into returning back to England after 25 years but immigrants just burned down my home town ?

Still not enough. And too little way too late. Our small town convenience store is a total revolving door for East Indian ‘family members’. You get whiplash because every week or 10 days there is a new immigrant working there. Very poor customer service, and barely any English. Of course people get fed up! They NEVER hire local. There are lots of local older teens who can and would love to do those convenience store jobs. No following rules, no checks and accountability. It’s past being enough.

This reduction to 395,000 is ridiculous. These people are a joke. Every Uber driver in our town is Indian. These good folks come here thinking they'll get a job with a future. There are now so many Ubers in town, its cheaper to drive in an Uber than your own car.

I'm esst indian born in a small northern BC town and these indian students have literally ruined places.....its a plight. None should have been let in esp that many. A lot of these people are poor backwards villagers...rapists and just lowly people who shouldn't be here. They should put a freeze on it all. Its a literal burden...disgusting. it's feeling less like canada every day.

WHATS “REALLY” HAPPENING IS COMMIE TRUDEAU IS CUTTING BACK BECAUSE TRUMP IS DEPORTING EVERY ONE OF THESE “REPLACEMENT IMMIGRATION” ILLEGALS! …THIS COMMUNIST GOVERNMENT HAS COMPLETELY DESTROYED OUR CULTURE WITHOUT ANY REFERENDUM OR EVEN A MENTION OF THIS COMMUNISM BEFORE HAND!..LITTLE CASTRO IS NOTHING BUT ASS CANCER IN THE FLESH TO THIS COUNTRY!..WE LIVE IN A VERY SMALL TOWN & OUR LITTLE COMMUNITY LOOKS LIKE WERE IN SYRIA NOW!..ITS PATHETIC!..& LIKE ALL COMMUNISM THESE ILLEGALS COME WITH 50% OFF STICKERS FOR EMPLOYERS!..& LIKE THE GOOD LITTLE COMMUNISTS THEY ARE ,THEY ALL FALL IN LINE BECAUSE THEY’RE GETING THEIR POCKETS LINED BY THIS GROSSLY CORRUPT “CASTRO” GOVERNMENT!…COMMIE CASTRO EVEN RAISED TARIFFS ON CHINESE STEEL THAT SOUNDS GREAT UNTIL YOU DIG I TO IT !!..ITS ACTUALLY SO CORPORATIONS WHO’LL GET OTHER SUBSIDIES & WHO CAN AFFORD THE TARIFFS WILL HAVE MAJOR LAYOFFS & RE-HIRE 50% OFF IMMIGRANTS INSTEAD OF HOME GROWN CANADIANS!..BUT THE KICKER IS THAT THESE TARIFFS WILL COMPLETELY CRUSH THE SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS WHO EMPLOY 50% OF OUR CURRENT MIDDLE CLASS!…REMEMBER FOLKS THAT CASTRO JR IS A PUPPET OF THE WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM!!..THEY’RE SATANIC PEDO GLOBALISTS WHO HATE HUMANITY!…JUST GO LISTEN TO NOAH HIRARI FROM THE WEF SPEAK FOR A FEW MINS!…HE SPEAKS ABOUT HUMANS LIKE HE HAS NO IDEA WHAT ITS LIKE TO BE ONE!..& REALLY THINK ABOUT THAT!…THERES WAY MORE TO THIS THAN WHATS ON THE SURFACE!..?

I live in a small town and there are Canadians here that can't even find a one-bedroom apartment or a minimum wage job

What I would like to know is, how can the immigrants afford to buy up 3 local businesses in the small town that I live in and still receive government handouts and tax breaks..?

“From Everywhere?”\nBruh. I’m from Goa. TRUST ME WITH THIS - We are Taught ‘Manners’ right from the time we are Born. There are hardly 5-10% Goans who are classless. But, majority are taught ethics are MANNERS! Forget about Canada, these people have created a Ruckus in Goa as well. \nI got one question here. Aren’t these people taught manners and etiquettes, and ‘HOW TO BEHAVE’ when they go to others City/country or Town? If Not, PLEASE F-kin DO! PLEASE!

There taking over whole cities even towns . Not just that they just hire there own Indians to work for there companies or stores and us whites would go to jail for racism. If you just go against what they want for themselves and you don't agree with them the fist thing out of there mouths is I'm a racist.cit happen to me personally and will never trust one .

Open borders never work - wish the whole of Canada behaved like my town.

Wasn’t Sandy Hook in a small town? There’s no safe school in the USA.

Have you ever try to adopt the life of the first Nation? Canada is multi-cultural, and it is nice to see how towns and cities are different from each others.

Calgary is the 5th largest city in Canada, not the third. Calgary is the third municipality in Canada, but that information is only useful to the town hall. For practical reasons and all aspects of a daily life, you have to count the size of the metropolitan population, otherwise Quebec City will be bigger than Miami or Houston will be bigger than Paris, for instance.

What place is affordable? \nBesides some backwater town.

I have a real university degree and i;m a red seal tradesman.. i can't get a frickin job atm and not only are wages going down but our dollar is losing all it's strength. i know a woman who posted that she needed an employee on indeed .. she had 657 job applicants within 2 days.. in a small town of 80 000. Like FFS already.. My son or any of his frens can't find work either!

1. Here in canada they have s2pid tax bracket. I dont pay taxes from my birth country for people like me who work abroad.\n2. With electl engr degree and experience both land and sea as cargo ship electrician. Cant even work as construction electrician here in canada. My degree and experience is nothing here.\n3. Im from a tropical country in pacific with white sand beaches. Here its cold even in summer the sea water is cold. Miss spearfishing and freediving.\n4. The only thing i like about canada is its peace and order in medium to small town. Except mega cities. Infras and oads are wide.\nI will take my skill to the US.

So within the last 30 years roughly 500 million Indians were born. Now they all are adults looking for some way to survive. Even 10% or 50 million Indian migrating all around the world is significant. Since most Indians sell everything they have, or take out a loan, in order to go abroad and earn money to help their family - they arrive poor in a high cost of living country. Poor people can't afford big cities - it's cheaper in small towns. So if 200,000 Indians go to a small town to survive....well, you'll see them everywhere, surrounding you, and there is no escape.\nThis is how India will take slowly over every small town, and eventually big cities. Just slow unstoppable migration to every country, every continent. They are legion. I call it Indianification. Every country will become another India.
