when a country is no longer attractive to immigrants, it means that country is in economic trouble. But the short-sighted and uninformed anti-immigration commentators don't get it.

Before asking skilled people to come to germany, better tell your fellow germans to have good intention toward the the immigrant, as they are Racis.! ?

This is disturbing, Canada is becoming Canaidiana. The door of immigration from India needs to be closed down. Other Canadians are sick and tired of living in Punjab, instead of living in Canada.

Indians are rude, they are ignorant they think they are the best even when immigrants lmfao, also they are cheap and try to exploit every system we have in place for the less fortunate… kick them all out I would be happy.

I do not agree that these international students should stay here in Canada, they should be here to study and not for work. If they wanna be a permanent residents here, they should go back to their country and apply for a permanent resident. And if it all goes well, then they come here as a landed immigrants legally.

A slight decrease isn't going to do much when he pumped up the immigration levels to insane skyrocketed amounts. Need mass deportations.

Born and raised in Canada. Grew up believing anyone could do well here if you apply yourself as an average person. Household income was higher then the USA and for the most part 'middle class life' was pretty attainable. Now I've had some bumps along the way that has nothing to do with this to set me back, but today I look at the 'make a life market' and the opportunities are none. You either own a home and are doing well, or your a renter going backwards every year because of inflation and the brain drain. Entrepreneurs have left the country. We as a country have not done much since the 1980's. We stagnated in The Boomers success and never made a future for their children. Then in the past few years, we have rampant immigration to add to the fire. Canada, for a lack of words is a Dumpster Fire. DON'T MOVE HERE!

My beloved immigrants the american dream is dead, We Americans are barely getting by, paycheck to paycheck?. Don't believe everything in the movies.

Thank you for your honest attempt to understand our culture our history, our sense of humor, and what makes us Canadian; rather than American. Our general acceptance of immigration brings richness and change to our culture. We have a more cooperative than competetive attitude,I believe. There is a huge American influence, but still a European, British Isles and French component. History had taught us a lot.

It’s the greed of old settlers ( immigrants who moved in 20+ years ago) that is ruining Brampton. They are the ones who are targeting/ exploiting new immigrants. And new immigrants are doing further wrong things to recover their losses.

Another immigrant talking about canada. They have no idea

Ur own prople sleeping in street. And you think about immigration.

Where are the destination countries that those Canada immigrants moved to? You did not tell the whole story. The audience may think that those people are leaving Canada to US. \n\n1. Among five eyes countries, Canada is the easiest country for people to migrate to. For example Australia skill migrant program does not accept the flight attendant as the required talent. There is very slim chance that the flight attendant can get the PR through the skill migrant program in Australia. Canada is now getting into the trouble similar to the sub-prime crisis in US 15 years ago: too many people who are not the qualified immigrants arrived to Canada in past 2 years. They are leaving because the minimal hourly wages cannot support their living in the big cities like Toronto and Vancouver. \n2. High income tax ? In UK the top tax bucket is well over 40%. In Australia you need to pay 45% income tax plus 2% medical Levy surcharge\n3. High cost of living? I think the cost of living in London of UK and Sydney of Australia are also exceptionally high. The cost of living affordability depends on the income of the migrants. Low income working class will feel the cost of living and housing pressure. But this applies to all countries, including SF of US, Toronto of Canada, Sydney of Australia, London of UK\n4. Rise in crime: I do not understand this logic as the migrants left Canada to US - the city of LA, New York, Seattle and Chicago are far worse than in Canada \n5. Limited Career opportunities: the only country that has better career opportunities is US. What are the main reasons for those who are not migrating to US?\n\nIn summary, all the above points are not the main reasons. The main reason is the liberal government. Canada had taken a large number of wrong low end migrants in wrong time. When the economic downturn turn comes these are the most vulnerable group of people that should leave Canada.\n\nMany Canadian found that they resolved some of the problems by relocating from city to city ie moved from Vancouver to Calgary. Cheaper house price and cost of living, lower crime rate,etc

Lot of illegal immigrants people take advantage of Canada

Why is every government such as Canada that follows the WEF directives have such destructive problems? The depopulation goals, implementation of global famine by stopping farming and fishing, flooding countries with immigrants, eliminating free speech and doing everything that preludes implementing communism, is this what liberal NDP voters want for Canada? Do Canadians want their children and grandchildren to be sex slaves for the elite such as in North Korea?

Immigrants were sent to all western countries, all part of the WEF's plan

The list of recommendations you suggest at the end seems very sensible. Senhora Thaiza deserves a medal for the extra work she does in explaining the reality of living and working in Germany to nurses in Brazil. If she's not paid for that, that should be part of the support programme i.e. support by immigrants for potential immigrants. She's much better placed to do that than most Germans. Interesting report, thank you.

It's like Canada's problems could be solved if virtually all of the students went into healthcare. The solutions be common sense and yet countries will not implement them. How about make it easier for students studying healthcare to be able to immigrate.

Jesus Christ and his parents was immigrants when God told them to flee to Egypt because King Herod was gonna kill Jesus. Good thing Egypt didn't deny Joseph & Mary and Jesus to not come into their country. Today immigrants are asking other immigrants to leave. Will the real owners, Native American tell the land stealing theives that God own the earth and you immigrants have not been paying your tithes and offering. God created the Heaven and Earth. And man been given a less than a 120 years lease and you have polluted the land etc. Repeat after me God is the owner of Heaven and Earth.

As someone who immigrated to Canada 9 years ago, I want to put a significant cap on ALL the immigration programs for the next few years, until we get our shit together.

It will not harm any Canadians. How are these Indiana contributing to the country when they are abusing the system. Immigration fraud, mortgage fraud. Insurance fraud. they have made canada worse. ???

I trained Indians for two years as my company outsourced my job. I loved the manager I worked with. He and his wife eventually immigrated to Canada. And I am happy for them. However, it's become out of control. Some part of me wishes they would stay in India and clean it up because India is a mess.

Hope and opportunity..hehe..America and Canada is fooling people..all they do is drain the people and make the immigrants feel like they are getting the benefits

How many Anglo immigrants does India take in?

You know what is weird about the America first argument? It pits Americans against immigrants, implying that immigrants are the reason that Americans do not have the support they should have. When really, the party that won off of the anti-immigrant rhetoric is the one stripping all the social programs and support away from working class Americans, and cutting taxes for the richest of the rich.

If Canada could afford it then they wouldn’t be taking everything from the food banks and donation places. There’s nothing left for the Canadians suffering. It’s not even affordable for people that have children anymore, which is why we need immigrants and it’s hurting us.

Canada must be laughing at us because every plane that comes with illegal immigrants hell-bent on going south you got to realize that they're paying Landing fees to Canada at the very least

Immigration should stop in every country..

Immigration Canada, is to blame, because they open international.students with they can bring theur husband and children or mother, JUST TO STUDY... This is so wrong

If these immigrants are going to flood the border to get into this country, the least they could do is learn to speak english.

Stop bringing them in at break neck speed. STOP FAMILY unification for parents or have a ten year time line and all further cost to be bourne by sponsor. REFUGEES who get residency should NOT get citizenship until all cos?t as refugees be repaid in full.Time to get serious about immigration.

what immigration laws?????????...this fella needs to put the boots to turdeau and Canada to stop importing terrorists

Mass immigration caused mass inflation of housing,goods and services in Canada.

Temporary does not mean permanent. Canada can not support this mass immigration crisis. Canadians are suffering from the open floodgates. It's about time the doors close

It’s tough 1.5 billion people can easily over welm a country of immigration personally I don’t blame them how ever my son went to a US collage an he did not get a pass to citizenship maybe they should be given a number an when the job market picks up give them a call back

Agree with Tom Homan immigration laws need to be improved and enforced

Stress is part of growing up. When have student's not been stressed? Why not check if the immigration consultant is real?

Canada needs a Tom Homan. Immigration in Canada is a joke!

We need more immigrants, but only the ones that share our values, and not the ones who put their own religious laws above our Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

If you are a genuine student or legal immigrant there is no need to worry.Its the guilty ones who are scared.

i have a couple of friends that are Legal immigrants in CDA now, they said trying to get family members into CDA (now) for landed status in almost impossible, in fact their visitation visas are almost expired and all the former LOOPHOLES are gone

So it took Trump to fix Canadian immigration ? voting for Liberals is the biggest mistake in this century. Trudeau is incompetent

Its not immigration, its an invasion!!!!\nWe need someone like this to run our borders

The ones in your thumbnail are the ones saying there are too many immigrants\n\nThe ones most people don’t want are not shown

Ok, instead of immigration, how about counties trade citizens just how sports teams trade players. Canada can have 6 trump haters easily found on tik toc and I will goingnwork Texas oil rigs, since my job is gone from Trudeau

Northern border! Stop the immigration of illegal aliens! Why is this a problem?

He’s 100% right our immigration laws have become a joke and abused by half the globe. Trudeau needs to go.

Tom Homan is spot on about Canada’s loose immigration policies and weak border enforcement. The unchecked flow of terrorists, criminals, and those with severe mental health issues crossing from Canada into the United States is a serious problem. Canada’s lack of strict oversight and effective measures is endangering American communities. This blatant disregard for proper security is unacceptable,.

Who elected Tom Homan to run Canada's immigration laws? Maybe he could spend some time getting his own house in order.

This Canadian sides with Trump on immigration send them home
