No African should be looking for reparation when their ancestors were heavily involved in the evil act of slavery. And before you say black Americans and Caribbean people have African ancestry (you know exactly what I mean). If you can show that between 1700-1900 your great- great - great grandparents resided in the USA or Caribbean and still carry their masters last names) I feel some of you folks are rewriting history, suggesting that they should be part of the reparations. Forget it!!!! I have personally heard Africans in particular Nigerians say with their own mouths that the Caribbean people and Africans Americans lack culture but theirs was intact because they were never enslaved. Forgetting that slaving was all about dismantling these people identity/dignity so they could be controlled. Now these people who looked down on their “so called brothers” are singing a different tune. No one should receive a penny especially if you cannot show any evidence how you are linked to the plantations in the USA or the LAC region.

I DO HOPE PM TRUDEAU DO EXACTLY WHAT TRUMP IS DOING.\nIT WILL BE LESS COSTLY TO RETURN THOSE FOLKS TO THEIR\nCOUNTRY.\nCANADA HAS OUR OWN PROBLEMS.

How fitting he is reading the report with his Non-Canadian accent.\n\nIf you know anyone here after their visa has expired or who gained entry illegally you can contact the Canadian Border Services \nAgency anonymously if you like. EVERY LITTLE BIT HELPS FOLKS!

There’s an allegory in Mexican folk about Mexican crabs. No need to cover a bucket of Mexican crabs,\nas soon as one climbs up the rest pull it down.

These people across the United States border with a fair. Do you actually think they're going to fear Justin Trudeau's and The RCMP baggage boys? It's all scripted folks and these people were meant to end up in Canada

Don't get fooled folks, all by design.

You can not even provide housing to your own citizens ; and you will be accepting illegals and asylum-seekers who can't be recognized as gangsters or just ordinary folks. ? Does Canada have jobs to offer ? And where will the government settle them in ? Our own people could hardly afford to feed their families, etc.

i'm happy there are people here who agree, but having your voice heard only as a youtube comment is not the answer. do you know how countries in europe managed to get ahead in healthcare? patients went to the press with recorded videos about their experience. and yes, initially the journalists dismissed this as non news, but it only needed one to go with it. and it made waves. now a 2hr wait in the ER in europe is met by the tv crew. \ncanadians refuse to do it. when i came to canada 25 years ago a 2hr wait was normal. now it's 9hrs and still no discontent voices. no politician is running on healthcare, but on cutting taxes and on giving back a few hundred dollars a year back to the families. and most are eating it up! \nbecause healthcare is public, doctors and their union have 0 incentive of allowing more professionals into the system, because they all share the same pie. there are families who do not have a family doctor and are forced to use clinics, even with newborn babies. my family doctor works a regular job, doesn't answer the phone after 3:30 (even though they are open until 4), has 2-half days (one is a golf day btw) and overall couldn't give a F about patients. on that high salary in any other industry, you'd be on call 24/7. \nand then there's housing, jobs, the education system is a mess - more and more people are worried about what these kids are learning and there is 0 incentive from any of the politicians to address the issue.\nand, of course, there is forced immigration. when we came it used to be a merit system, you had to bring in money to prove you won't be a burden to welfare for at least a year. it's definitely not the case now. \npeople look at PP as some kind of saviour, but he's not going to fix anything. usually conservatives are good for corporations, whilst liberals balance their policies with the needs of the common folk. how far they've fallen.

To all those supporting the cracking down on these ‘illegals’ there’s something I need to know. Tell me, if they folks had an option to immigrate legally, would they? Do you think it’s some kind of malicious effort to come here against the law, or are they coming here out of desperation? Many of these people come from places like Haiti, Colombia, or Guatemala. Places that the CIA and American tax dollars destroyed. Illegal immigration wouldn’t be a problem if we didn’t make the situations of many of our southern neighbors unlivable.\n\nI’m a Floridian white dude who was comparatively born with the silver spoon in my mouth, I understand America is at a point economically where the last thing we need is to be spending money on non citizens, sending billions in foreign aid abroad or on undocumented immigrants. But I also think we need to take some level of accountability for why this is even an issue. I speak Spanish as a second language, and ever since I got to communicate with many of these ‘illegals’ and got to hear from an older Guatemalan gentlemen of his time living through the American backed “Silent Holocaust” my opinion has change completely.

Ok I have a question. Right now the unemployment rate is 4.1%, if 12M illegal immigrants get deported, who largely work in food processing, constructions, and healthcare support, who is going to take those jobs? We have 7M unemployed and if we deport 12M, that's 5M jobs at a minimum that will no longer be filled. You think food costs a lot now, what happens to the cost of food without them? Or the cost of building new housing, it certainly won't go down? Or the cost of taking care of granny in the old folks home, is she coming home to the family to provide round the clock care?

So its basically sonething of an National Registrar for Citizens programme in India. \n\nContext - It all began in Northeast India, a tegion which has been neglected by the Indian government for quite a long time. The region is populated by Hindus speaking Assamese (in Assam), Bengali (in Tripura) & Meitei (in Manipur), with a large significant population of Tibeto-Burmese tribal populations following either Christianity, their own folk religions or integrated with Hindus & a minority of Bengali Muslims (mostly in Assam). This area was conquered by the British in 1820s, & with the British came a lot of non-native peoples (mostly Bengali speaking people), thereby making the noatives absolutely hate their presence. Following the Partition of India, many Bengali Hindus fleeing persecution migrated to Northeast India, fuelling further unrest. Over time, a large number of Bengali Muslims from what is now Bangladesh illegally migrated into the Northeast & integrated themselves with the local Muslim population (settled by the British), thereby changing the regional demographics based on religion. In the 1980s the increasing number of Bengali Muslims in the Northeast Indian state of Assam sparked an insurrection, which was put down after the Indian government promised to identify & deport illegal immigrants. Similar rebellions also broke out in other states of Northeast India by the tribal population against the rise in numbers of Bengali Hindus seeking shelter from religious persecution by Muslims in Bangladesh. However, very little progress was made in identifying illegal immigrants in Northeast India. After 2011 census revealed that Muslims outnumbered Hindus in Assam (but the combined Hindu-tribal populated outnumbered Muslims), talks began about setting a registrar & tribunal to speed up the process of identifying & deporting illegal immigrants from Bangladesh. This picked up pace after the Hindu nationalist BJP party came to power in the union government in 2014 & in Assam's state government in 2016. Around 2018, the Assam government started the National Register of Citizens to register the names of all people of the state provided that they can show proof of their/their parents being present in the state before 1971, inabilty to do so would cause to stand trial before a Foreigners' Tribunal to prove their citizenship or face deportation. This exercise was fraught with allegations of xenophobia, with Bengali Hindus, Gorkhas (settled by the British from Nepal to serve in the army) & Austro-Asiatic tribals (settled by the British to work as labourers in tea gardens) being branded as illegal infiltrators alongside Bengali Muslims. Those who were unable to prove their citizenship ended up rounded in detention centres, eventually to be deported out, which at that time many in Europe & USA had compared with Nazi concentration camps. \nIt would be interesting to see whether this same Nazi analogy is drawn up in case of the Trump administration doing the same as what happened in India.

Lets go after naturalized citizenship ? These dirty people voted for us White Folks to DEPORT THEM ALL! LETS GET BUSY TRUMp AND DEPORT ALL BROWN AND BLACK PEOPLE!!!

I see lots of comments bashing these folks and I get it, sort of. Trump won by a landslide, and most of his supporters want mass deportation. I find that ironic insomuch as everyone here, other than Native Americans, are or are descendants of immigrants. Did they all come here legally? And for those whose ancestors did, how much easier was it way back then. Plenty of hypocrisy to go around.

A foreign born immigrant talking BS - SMH. She is talking about taking the country back when she was born in another country - LMAO. Folks you cannot make this s*** up - SMH.

Listen young u know “those folks” will turn a blind eye ?️ …..free/cheap labor…. New food trucks,automobiles detailing, major companies pick them up …..oh yeah hay we’re the wht women @???

Take America back? Begs the question, from who? People on the political left are American too. Nobody, and especially MAGAts, have the right to take my home and country from me. You can see just by the language these folks use just how deluded and selfish they are.

She ain’t American trump looks at her like the Help! How do you turn on your family and race for Hitler 4.0! Dang idiots she needs to be deported! God said love our neighbor! All these religious folks being racist and inhumane! God should destroy there homes and let’s see how fast Cheese head help them!! Talking about she Mexican American HA! What a joke!

The party of family values folks.

I tried of black folks talking about Jan 6 as if it had any thing to do with black folks. I might seen one black man and a few biracial. When George Floyd died protest turn to looting the only dollar store within miles. Basically destroyed the the stores that are essential to them and the democrats supported that nonsense 100%.

@gloalassociatesl.l.cglobal8015\n0 seconds ago\nCheck how many dead people voted, even though they died before the state allowed date to vote. Check how many infirm people sent in ballots, How many nursing home folk voted and they don't even remember voting at all. There is your million swing state votes rupublicans. you found a way to cheat. and it worked this time. Wake up Democrats

Clearly the this comment section is full of the dumbest people.\n\nAll virtue-signaling and talking about how this woman is an evil person because she's standing for what it RIGHT, at the expense of her own personal interests.\n\nAs though that's not of far greater virtue than being in favour of the illegal immigration crisis that has caused ACTUAL, tremendous harm to the country.\n\nThankfully most Americans are much smarter than you clueless folks, so there's some hope.

She did the same thing as they. Stood in line. Did she wire an attorney like many folks, did she have to pay hundreds/thousands of dollars from this form or that form medical test. Did she have to go to an interview not sure if you would be allowed to stay.. she’s just like them..

These folk forget what Martin Niemoller said about this attitude. Change the groups to anyone who is persecuted, watch out for each other or you’ll be next. \n\nFirst they came for the Communists\nAnd I did not speak out\nBecause I was not a Communist\nThen they came for the Socialists\nAnd I did not speak out\nBecause I was not a Socialist\nThen they came for the trade unionists\nAnd I did not speak out\nBecause I was not a trade unionist\nThen they came for the Jews\nAnd I did not speak out\nBecause I was not a Jew\nThen they came for me\nAnd there was no one left\nTo speak out for me

Why is she still a MEXICAN American?\nMAGA doesn't stand for Make Mexico.....\nTrump folks hate hyphenated people. \nShe needs to tighten up her act if she's going to survive the next 4 years.

All I am going to say is when it starts happening all you folks who voted for these folks better stay off Scoali Media crying. You asked for this and now you get what you asked for.

Deport thT musk first, his an immigrant, do the right thing,. Or are you violating the law or profiling folks, no favoritism .

What’s the point of The Guardian going to a Trump rally to ask folks about their opinions on immigrants/immigration? It pretty much common knowledge this is a cult and these folks are pretty much brain dead

She thinks she’s better than her own family. She is dying to be picked by the white Americans and treated as one of them. Putting her family on the line to try and get that. Those white folk will NEVER see you as one of them girly. NEVER. No matter how many other Latinos you beat down trying to fit in.

When the Corporate Rate gets reduced from 28% to 15%, the price of commodities/goods on corporate owned shelves will go down 46.428571% but not mom and pop shops b/c mom and pop shops ain't got nothing and Big Business just about has it all. A 22-23% market correction is coming soon. It shouldn't be over 30%. Take 8 and divide it by 36 and it gives you the answer.\n\nI suspect tariffs won't take effect immediately. Along with the 22-23% market correction & Corporate Rate reduction, it could appear that those goods will go down 2/3rds in price in 3-4 months & might be stable for a little while. Perhaps tariffs will kick in 18-24 months from now. All those decisions that are made is Big Government and all them taxes that the working man/working folk pay in is jacked up and ain't right! Especially considering that workin' folk can't claim back their taxes but instead get a measly ol' rebate (which is their own money btw). \n\nWe got soil problems in the Delta. I do know how to fix it but it is going to take some time & dollary doos along with man power.

this plan of Mr. Trump will be wholly legal and wholly accepted by 'most' US citizens as it will be passed by a Rep controlled congress. \n\nE-Verify will be a centerpiece of it, significant financial penalties and prison time for those who attempt to skirt around it including homeowners looking for day labor at a Home Depot. \n\nSecondly the fed. dollars will no longer flow into states who do not enforce this mandate. \n\nThirdly 'zero' remittances can be sent unless the sender can prove US citizenship or green card status.\n\nLastly a $5000 a head bounty for illegal aliens brought into collection centers nationwide putting countless folks into moon lighting which will have the effect for 'most' folks of this being wholly legitimate. \n\nSadly illegal aliens were buffaload into believing citizenship or a green card awaits them if they criminally cross the US' southern border by Mr. Biden and his leftist followers, illegal aliens will have 'no' one else to blame when they're walking 'back' across that southern border.\n\nThe final chapter has yet to be written...

For those of you saying our cheap fruit picking labor will stop, please understand those folks are here on work visas. Like it was before Skamala and Sleepy Joe listened to their Emporer Obama and opened uo the border unlike it ever has.

Its ironnic these Trumpsters all voted over high grocery prices,only to achieeve higher grocery prices,the stupid is strong in these folks

Keep spewing that rhetoric, Banks. You know who else will be leaving the country? A lot of educated folks who do not want to be part of your BS. Look at the brain-drain which happened to Russia 2 yrs ago or South Africa in the early 2000s. Look at them now. 3rd world Trump will have his 3rd world sh***ole right on his doorstep every morning.

If they all get deported, we will not have workers. Our country will go belly up if we lose those workers. We don't have the money to find and send all the illegals back. He didn't build the wall in 2016, how is he going to build the wall this time? I hope he builds a border wall on the Canadian border as well. We have a lot of illegal White folks coming from the Canadian border. Trump hires all foreign people for his companies by using H-1B Visas, too.

What about the immigrants that have been working and contributing and trying to get citizenship for decades and the spouses of American citizens still fighting for their right after paying taxes for many years - are we raiding all families homes and splitting up kids from parents? Did we ever find the families for the 800+ kids that had no details taken still unable to contact families that trump split them from the first time? Or does that not matter cause it’s not YOUR kids? Huh. When they come and create the detention camps and ship people back to places they haven’t been in decades who cares right they have been paying American taxes and have no rights while their years of waiting for their citizenship - fix that maybe so those who are working, contributing can stay and work in the jobs they have and keep families together. But no let’s demonise EVERY single person because most who voted are ignorant just like abortion about the actual application and situations that arise within a MASSIVE spectrum. Just dumb it down to ANY illegal, and does that also include the legal folks that GOP decide aren’t anymore just cause they came from elsewhere on an invitation? Springfield residents I would suggest if you haven’t or can’t left the state already you find points of contact for legal battles. \n\nWelcome to the start of your facist, authoritarian, white nationalist, dictator era AMERICA. What follows was your own doing. To any woman that voted republican - No matter your faith there is no well I always vote republican defence. Women have and will die for lack of healthcare, their deaths are on your hands and every republican. And so we are clear there are ZERO babies ‘executed’ after birth cause anyone changed their mind. The deaths of fetus carried to term are due in almost all cases to massive complications, unviable development or other mitigating issues. Those babies were wanted. They were mourned. \n\nWhere is the magic money for all these deportations coming huh? Reconciliation won’t pay the bills, and once the workers who do the labour that effect service, hospitality, food supply the costs of things will rise. But apparently multiple Wall Street and top economists telling you outright that trumps plans will tank the economy still you don’t believe. Even though Biden landed the best recovery in the world post covid and gop. When musk and the rich are getting another tax break and the costs of food and gas rise who do you blame then? If it wasn’t for all the innocent ppl about to suffer I would wish you welcome to just implode with this vile plan but the dictators like putin are already rubbing their hands together in gleeful joy. People of Ukraine I am sorry. People of Yemen, Syria, Palestinian civilians, Israel hostages, lgbtq+ communities, non white Christian faith followers, blended families, veterans, minorities or anyone fleeing violence, death or persecution - there will be no aid or help by the GOP Trump administration and in fact I fear you will be targeted by hate and ignorance or selfishness and greed. But I hope enough columns of good remain to shield as many as possible from what is in their plans. Folks who voted for gop while being in the targeted communities you need to take a long hard look in the mirror and soon you may experience your choices in vivid regret. \n\nFor those who still have a conscience I share your heartbreak and wish the future 4yrs pass quickly and a flicker of hope that there is still good enough people who will offset the hate, division and evil that’s about to erupt all over the country. ?️

These have got to be the dumbest most delusional people on earth, it is not about legal or illegal status !!!! It has everything to do with their color !!! If it was thousands of folks from Greenland or Sweden or somewhere with white folks he wouldn’t even mention a border or illegal immigrants, when are people gonna stop being so stupid, Spanish people really screwed themselves big time with this one , especially for a man that hates them with such a passion. Remember last time when he was president and Puerto Rico had a hurricane and when people were asking him what he was gonna do to for them and he said that their own government needs to help them out because he did not know that he was their president as well and asked if they could trade Puerto Rico for Greenland ??? and than still blocked aid from them and said he did not want to give them handouts so they could lay around and be lazy, than when they finally said he needed to go because it didn’t look good , he went and stood there and just threw rolls of paper towels at them.

Just think folks once all of the illegals are out of our country we can start helping our homeless citizens. I know imagine that happening instead of catering to these illegals like they're royalty. I'm not just talking about Spanish I'm talking about Haitians-romanians,Chinese,africans,indians,EVERYONE who is here that's not supposed to be here. The executive order must give police a direct order from the commander and chief of the USA stating the police are ordered to ask for identification on all people's in this country on spot without cause. If you're a citizen you don't have anything to worry about if you're illegal you get deported within 24 hours after arrest NO NEED FOR A COURT CASE they will be put onto busses in every city loaded to the gills driven to the boarder and yes folks the NATIONAL GAURD might have to be used to show everyone how fkn serious we are about taking our country back. Enough is Enough democrats have proven they can't be trusted to run our country. What a nightmarish mess President Trump has to clean up.

When produce prices jump in the stores because a lack of labor? When building contractors lose a portion of there labor building houses?? When the meat processors like tyson meats and others have illegals working through labor contractors!!!! Yes those of you who say how can they work? Well \nThe corporations give lip service but use contractors to avoid legal issues and inturn labor contractors uses temps lol and other modes!! \nWe are short of labors in these fields of employment. \nId like to see our MAGA voters go out and hoe weeds ???? Or harvest lettuce or tomatoes or bell peppers or plum on 8 foot ladders all day\nOr pore foundational cement for houses? This field has tons of illegals!!!!\nYou think you just experienced inflation!!!! Ha ha. Hold on to your hats because with the extremes in weather in the produce growing areas and labor shortage reducing yield further!!!! Prices in the stores will jump!!! That house may take 6 to 8 months to move in with a 10 % jump.in the price!!!\nAnd if trump put troops on the border the new president in Mexico has stated she will close the borders. So all of those parts and components produced needed for final assembly were stop.\nUnemployment will rise as companies get smaller profits add trumps tariffs. Youll add a trade war!!!!\nPrices go up because tariffs are a tax!!!! Consumers alway get those fees back on to the end user!!!! I give it 12 to 14 months. This economy will spiral downward. By the way, Europe and China have stated they will increase tariffs on items imported from America!!!!\nSo you will have a full blown trade war and products stop being sold!!!! Come folks figure it on out!!!! This is high school basic macro economic models !!!!!!!! Not rocket science here\n,,, your angry because you just experiencedthe back side of a pandemic . Now you want to have trump give you a 1930 solution froM MR. HOOVER. !!!! REMEMBER THE DEPRESSION!!!!

This lady clearly hates her family and wouldn't even care if she hears back from them. I hope that they do allow people to come into the country with the right information... but to completely cut off or run out your citizens because of citizenship, or to allow the police to be brutalize your citizens... Or to overly tax tired and hard-working citizens. To tell men and women what they can or cannot do with their bodies... whaaa? No. To allow white folk to be openly hateful towards blacks, browns, asians, and everyone else is a darn Na-tit.... just ewwww. ??????

Canada under Trudeau have backstabbed innocent youth by opening immigration too much in the beginning. \nTo divert attention from his own failures,corruption. Trudeau is doing all immigration mess up.\nTrudeau has blown hundreds of thousands of candian dollars on vacation. \nInflation has been out of control. \nCanada should not have opened its doors too much for youth of india in first place. But since they have no where else to go canada must accept them.\nThese white folks are not natives themselves they stole native americans land air and water.\nHope Trudeau loses his elections !

To my Latino and Latina folks, please don't get mad when your family gets picknuo at their job and in 24 hrs they are back in central America. Due to Trump deportation policy!! This is what you voted for , so you will now have to live with it!!

I guess it was the Hispanics that actually put Trump in office. It is what it is folks. You were warned about Donald for years you knew who he was .

Wait until the deportation starts. Folks that only know this country will be dumped off in a country they know nothing about g about. You folks are in for a big surprise. You have been listening to the wrong people. Trump lies

Once you move inside America, you want American politicians to care about people inside America rather than people outside America. The politician's first duty is towards his/her citizens. You cannot have homeless Americans while illegal immigrants are being put up in hotels. \nThe real question is, does the USA need more unskilled people, whose primary contribution is manual labor? More and more jobs are going to be lost to AI/Robotics. Think of the scenario where you will have vast swathes of the population unemployed or underemployed. Is that desirable? Think of the chaos that will cause. More doctors and scientists are always welcome to immigrate anytime, and such folks all do so legally. \nThere are enough people already in America to do what needs to be done. We need to first build infrastructure using existing citizens to enable the next wave of immigrants (several years later) to move here. You just cannot have more and more people put more pressure on an already crumbling and ageing infrastructure, driving up rents for low-income Americans.

? These folks are delusional, and it's funny.

Lots of folks here who can't wait to go pick their own fruit and vegetables.. buy some hammers and start those DIY home projects.. thank god for the higher wages you'll pay... or learn to live with less.

What about the illegals that came in under Trumps watch, also its all republicans that are hiring the folks because they work really cheap

Pretty soon folks might discover they are the dog that caught the car… WTF! Oh, that is what it meant …. I don’t like this at all

NOW THAT'S A DAM SHAME, BUT THAT'S THEM FOLKS THEY GOING TO LEARN ??????.
