Canada is often perceived as a land of opportunity and comfort, but my personal experience told a different story. After living there for over a decade, I made the difficult decision to leave for several reasons, each of which compounded my struggles and ultimately led me to seek a better quality of life elsewhere.\n\nThe Incident That Sparked the Change\nIn 2017, I was attacked in Toronto, leaving me with a broken nose. It was a traumatic experience, but the frustration didn't end there. When I reached out to my doctor to fix the injury, I was placed on a waitlist. For years, I followed up, hoping for progress, but by 2023, I still hadn’t received a call for the surgery. Each time, I was told the same thing: a shortage of doctors meant they couldn’t help. This highlighted a stark reality of the Canadian healthcare system—while it is publicly funded, it is often overwhelmed, leaving people waiting for years for essential treatments.\n\nThe Harsh Reality of Living Costs\nLiving in Canada became increasingly unsustainable for my family and me. Despite working hard and earning less than $100,000 annually, the cost of living pushed us into a debt of over $70,000. The financial strain was immense, forcing us to sell our home just to clear the loan. Even with this sacrifice, our lifestyle remained stagnant. We hadn’t taken a vacation in ten years because there was simply no room in the budget. Owning a home or enjoying basic luxuries felt like an unattainable dream, and I realized that continuing in this cycle was not a viable option.\n\nChallenging Weather Conditions\nCanada’s harsh weather was another factor that wore us down over time. The long, freezing winters and short, unpredictable summers made it difficult to enjoy outdoor life or maintain a consistent routine. The mental toll of enduring such extreme weather year after year contributed to the decision to seek a more temperate and enjoyable environment.\n\nA Need for Change\nAfter ten years of struggle, it became clear that the current conditions in Canada were not conducive to a fulfilling life. The combination of healthcare delays, skyrocketing living costs, financial stress, and unforgiving weather made me question the sacrifices I was making. Life is short, and the realization that there are other places in the world with better systems and opportunities prompted me to take action.\n\nWhile Canada has its merits, it’s important for people to reassess their priorities and make decisions that align with their well-being. For me, leaving was a step toward reclaiming my life and creating a future where I could thrive, rather than just survive.

The likelihood of obtaining a green card after being deported is slim to none. As it is, the wait time for someone from Mexico can be significantly long, often exceeding 20 years, especially for family-based petitions like siblings of U.S. citizens. So… yeah. Add a deportation to their file and you’re basically never seeing them again. Immigration is not like it used to be—when she stood in line for a matter of days.

Employment challenges, how about every job is taken up by the overflow of east Indians. Try looking for just a basic job, oh no 50% is paid by the government.

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%.

It reminds me when a couple of years ago, there were elections in Poland. We basically had the same situation as you guys now - a normal democratic centrist party vs a bunch of incompetent pseudo-fascists\n\nWe had a Ukrainian cleaner back then, and I shit you not, she said she hopes the right-wing nonsense party would win, because „they would clean up the immigration stuff” \n\nLady, you are an immigrant. They don’t want you there

Democrats in the 1800s: we need slaves for the economy you can't free them or everything will collapse\n\nDemocrats in 2024: you can't deport illegal immigrants or the economy will collapse.\n\nYou know illegals and the people who employ them don't pay taxes right? They are just basically used as cheap and next to free labor.

Cubans have it so much easier than other migrant groups once they get to the U.S.A. they basically get a free pass.

This dude is not smart, he blind, mandate is mandate?. No, stupid, all big scale action has balance disruption of the system.. Of course, deport criminal is priority, they are prejudice to economy and well being of society. Take immigrants that work in farmer for example, and other fields that supply necessity to population. How farmers will deliver products if they dont have workers? How the business will survive? How will people that need good have them? Farmers will get nuts, nobody to harvest their products, who will do the job? Oh! Get all those brainless senators for work in sectors of emergency. IT will affect the common people that need basic goods. The business people will lose income because their products will perish before consumers can have them. They need hire other people that will impose different price in services, for high demand, cant enforce to pay. In some point they have fill up for bankrupt. Population will be lack of basic. Anybody of common sense, analyze all that effect. No one those senators are able to answers the questions she put for them. ( They just said stupid words, We won majority , people voted in us) but morons, you will make a mess, in months all medeo/small business owners would stand up) Just imagine that.

Homan said they wouldn't separate families. They'd basically just have the documented leave with the undocumented.

I'm a latino straight from South America and I'm very happy. I REALLY don't get what you american liberals think of us. The only reason we are willing to leave our countries to live in the US is because you have a country where we can thrive. In order to go to the US, we go through the process and apply for visas and the green card. That's being honest. We don't want the country filled with illegal immigrants who jump the border. We left our countries in an honest way and we want the borders strong, so we can still have a country where we can thrive. Is it really hard for you to understand that? We voted for Trump and we're proud of it, so we don't need your false pitty. You guys don't know reality, you're born in fantasy land and you aren't able to see the basic truth even if it's in front of you.

QUE???? I’m a Mexican American too. This lady reminds me of one of my tias who basically gave away that she also voted for trump. How could you do that to your own family? It literally takes YEARS, DECADES for so many people to even get citizenship. But this lady is okay deciding the lives of other people because for her, getting her citizenship was easy. It’s not easy for most people. And so many people die trying to do it legally. And our government demonizes them for it.

Self-hatred is a dangerous thing. Also, doesn’t she realize that being deported means they can basically never come back? There was no strong argument on her side at all.

Canada, you need to WAKE UP. Ive visited toronto and montreal for the nightlife scene and it was a blast before they started coming in mass. Cultural diversity is great but this is basically taking over a country without a single shot being fired. This silent invasion of mass indians needs to stop. I too am an immigrant but at least in my culture, we dont disrespect other cultures boundaries like that by shoving flags into peoples faces, putting loud music in public. Thats just gonna piss alot of people off. I have friends of all colors but it comes to the point enough is ENOUGH. Canada THINK FAST and bring back the energy

?Malarkey THANK YOU —for the broadcast. ? How about the fact that Elon Musk came into to the US as an undocumented person (illegal immigrant). No wall will do the trick! Boy Oh boy out of touch. Of course, no one wants criminals. —-how about the Bi-partisan immigration border bill that was stopped in congress due to Trump’s instruction. Over 9 billion dollars are paid into Medicare and social security. Paid by undocumented workers who never collect on it. —let it be clear THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AS IN THE TOTAL ELECTORATE DID NOT VOTE FOR TRUMP, due to the electoral process in the country, the Trump voter was part of a resulting majority in basically what appears to be a 50-50 race —-How about as I understand it 14 million unaccounted for ballots ?. JUST SAY’N ??‍♀️\n\nOne last thought to this newly elected Indiana GOP Senator, actually two thoughts, California’s Tax payers did not stand up and say we do not want our portion of the Federal Tax pool (that which Californians paid) to go to Indiana. Those funds Indiana receives from Federal funds, as well as, what Indiana voters receive in terms of Medicare and Social Security. \n\nThe other thought is, about you Mr GOP man however many generations you may need to go back in your relative line (family) what country did those immigrants come from and how did they get here——then did they work hard as most new immigrants do or were they some unimagined criminals. Incidentally statistically the majority of crime is committed by US citizens, not undocumented works or new immigrants. YEP, FEAR IS DISGUSTING AND DOWN RIGHT PATHETIC. ?

I work over 60 hrs a week living in NC just barely staying afloat. We take umbrage when our government give 100's of millions of our money away. Narcissistic supply basically.

Trump sold most selfish Americans a dream. Groceries are not going down, immigrants will not stop coming in and inflation will not go down much. Americans basically just helped keep him out of jail.

I presume all LE agents in America will stop doing their job and round up the 15 MILLION people. LOL. There are 800K LE agents in the entire country. So I guess everything else will be dropped and spend the next 50 years rounding up every single immigrant.. LOL. What a joke. Basic Math. Obtained through higher education.

Illegals are not welcome, and one of the basic requirements of a country is to protect it borders. My wife and my son-in-law are immigrants..... legal. They have earned educations and professions, the contribute to the tax base and society, and they appreciate what they have earned. Immigration is a cenetrpiece of this country, when done right. If Canada wants the illegals, I'm sure the US will be happy to deliver them. But I believe most Canadians don't, and we are only hearing a few airheaded corner cases, similar to what is being deleted from our national consciousness right now.

This is literally why the Republicans won the election. There are over 15 million people breaking one of the most basic laws in the country that is causing problems in our society and the Democrats defend the law breaking and justify and enable ILLEGAL immigration. The Democratic party claims they are the more ethical party yet they enable, support and justify criminals behaviour. Since Obama this is one of the many social issues where the Democrats have lost their way.

Good work Canada. next Australia then USA with Trump in charge followed by UK all will keep on doing this while government instead of increasing jobs, salaries and basic rights will do rallies for next state elections.??

No, it's the Canadian colleges and economy that is affected, they will lose around 3 billion dollars per year because of this move. Infact, they were already having low application rates due to the diplomatic Fiasco between india and Canada, so they probably doing it to save face(basically, rejecting someone before they have a chance to reject you, lol) and also appease the coservatives, elections are on the way after all and Trudeau wants to win at any cost. This is nothing but desperate

Don't accept illegals , Canada . Serve your citizens first as they are also suffering from housing , from daily existence , job markets , basic needs . Where will you place these illegals , not knowing when gangsters are also included themselves in this charade . Crimes , assaults , shoplifting , all this could happen any time

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!!!!

Except we are ready for it. The government suspected this might happen and has been preparing for this exact scenario for months. The Sun has basically become the FoxNews of the North, spreading lies and conspiracy theories all for their beloved Dear Leader Little PP. So pay attention to what transpires in America under Trump and see if that chaos is what you really want to happen to Canada under the leadership of #trumpofthenorth.

Option 1 we gonna SPEND a HUGE amount of money to deport millions of people. \nOption 2 we filter out high crime immigrants and filter those out, after we charge $20000 each illegal for a 2 year visa and work permit as a trial time, and see how they contribute to society. \n Do you have any idea how much money will come in?? It will close 1/4 of your countries deficit.\n Look I'm an immigrant myself, and I was brought in legally as a kid. However because of the difficulties or the bureaucracy I was left out of status. The company I worked for (a delaship) wants me back, customers reach out to me directly because they trusted me and were happy with my performance as their advisor. But guess what I can't work, but I also can't be deported because my country of birth is at war. And I dont want to go back quite frankly because it's back there I'm gonna be an alien more than I am here. I finished a degree and paid my way through collage here I grew up here, and even though because of the problems of the immigration system I was constantly limited with basic equal opportunities I still see this as my home, and actually appreciate this country more than some people I know that were born here. \n Now again - I suffered plenty with being limited as an immigrant here and I was forced to work shitty heavy labor for years and years, I worked overtime plenty with no overtime pay and such (y'all just have no idea what immigrants life is) and in my case - I got stuck in that status for 2 decades. Where I could have had a high degree by now, I instead have been just busting my ass for peanuts. I never asked for any help from the government here even when I could have, never filed unemployment. \nAnd after all this you gonna deport me? Great fucking plan. Land of brave and opportunity ??

So basically if you don't have money we're not interested

You basically bankrupt the country Dems that’s why us the working class voted your stupid asses out! Duh did you not go to school? Did you not take economics? A 5 year old could do a better job.

We should middle class American citizens pay for food, shelter, education and clothing while we the American middle classes can’t afford these basic things ????? Americans have had enough, damn ! We do you think Democrats lost ????!!!! Wake up you woke freaks

Well, hopefully the people that live off the government, the American people and the majority of white people starting to go to work that’s a good thing. All the workers we see basically Mexicans and I’d like to see the white Americans to take the Mexican jobs. It’s gonna be very amusing no more food stamps.. work work work will be available. Those are low paying job, but at least they are jobs.

Lady Trump does not even Care about you one bit and You throwing your relatives under the bus or basically out of the countryWOW you are PATHETIC

They basically don't want ppl. That's a very simple thing bruh

Canada basically wants students to come to canada pay 4x fees, contribute to the economy by their everyday spending and then get lost to their home country. This is why I keep saying since 2019 that Canada is a SCAM \nThat’s why they ask students for SOPs before coming into Canada so that they can deport students after their education and after they have spent 1000s of dollars in canada. So now you’re broke and canada made money out of you to support their welfare system and bring more free refugees and claim to be worlds most humanitarian country ?

Imagine seeing black painted ICE vans on the roads during your commute home in the evening. You’ll know what there for! Imagine seeing a family being loaded up, with the parents hands zip tied, right infront of their children! \nTheir crime is for crossing back into a land that we basically stole from them back in 1846. Pesident Polk was looking for a just cause to steal the southwestern states and used a skirmish the border as a trigger.

We can't ALLOW this to happen.... Canada is already, basically,a middle eastern country.... CANADASTAN....this is now becoming dangerous...they are starting to bring their wars to Canada....we must return to our beautiful, peaceful culture.... remove TRUDEAU now!!

So basically what he just told y’all that voted for Mr. Fanta Orange ? is you got bamboozled! ?? good luck

So basically he’ll be doing what Obama did?

Let’s remember they were invited in by Trudeau and then when they were homeless on the streets, he basically said ‘not my problem

Funny these people will be the first to go. Low hanging fruit basically screaming deport me! Funny they’re really gonna love what’s next! They sure deserve it

She does realize her green card can be revoked and she too will be sent back right along with her family. So basically when people come here they lose all kinds of care for other people because our society and culture lacks love and care. Cool.

It’s all a corporate governmental banking and human trafficking scam. Every person the government brings in, the government can borrow from the bank in the form of a bond! Once your visa expires, then you have to leave. And the company that brokered you to get you here requires a fee, plus they get a fee from the government as well. And the company that hires you gets a subsidy from the government. The company won’t tell you that there are limited jobs or housing. They won’t tell you that you can’t use your degree if you have one, when you come here. You have to go threw all the associations and organizations to be qualified to practice your trade.And that costs more money! Back in the 70’s and 80’s people came from many other countries, and within a week or so, you’d have money in your pocket from working a basic job. Now once you get off the plane, you are at least over $40.000 in debt. Your education cost double, housing is limited and expensive along with the hi cost of food and fuel for that expensive used car. Then you find out that you’ve been lied too by the brokers that got you here. And soon as you get your landed status, you get hit with the taxes! And if you have any children during your 5 years, the government tells you that you have to register them, so the government can create another bond, so they can borrow more money from the bank! The government gives you a birth certificate, but they own your children until you go to a court of law to get a certificate of custody! Because if you decide to leave after getting your landed status, the government may not allow you to take your children with you! Look up family court and custody law, once you get here, the government manages you on behalf of those who own you! You need to look it up for yourselves and understand that any western country that you goto is ruled by Rome. And if you came from a country that was once a colony of the British empire, you will get here a little easier, it’s a simple transfer because they have your record on file in the city of London. The place that is 1 square mile within London itself! That place that Rome controls! Yes! It’s a big scam and you are the product!

it's not only what he WILL do, it's all the things he DID do that he will now get away with that really makes this election a spectacular failure. The voters basically exonerated him for PAST offenses like Jan 6, the classified docs, etc. that he will never face accountability for now. Voters also told him it's ok to pardon the insurrectionists. All for the price of eggs, which ironically will increase now after all the tariffs.

So basically, lets bankrupt the country to deport 11 million people while at the same time crashing the economy, especially the food and construction segments. Higher food and housing prices ahead. ??❤\nWeren't they just complaining about funding for immigrants?

So he's basically saying Biden was getting things done. Criminals are already locked up! There is a tough border bill by Biden!

Bhai gora basic pay se niche bhi kaam nahi karta hai ...tabhi to bhukhe mar Rahe Hain ...aapne log mehnat karte Hain basic pay se bhi niche 12 hours - 16 hours kaam karte Hain

Basically sikho ne Amgrezo ki gulami ki ar for in logo ne India k khilaf antanvad felaya ?????

Trudeau will bring in digital id and universal basic income digital cash, to 'rescue' us and 'keep us safe'.

To be fair there are a lot of Indians going to Canada.\nCulturally they treat their women like trash.\nIt’s basically all the Indians who can’t get into America who get bad grades go to Canada because it’s easier to get into. \nId be suprised if they integrated.\nSpoken by an Indian decent person !

You can advocate for ppl coming to the US legally without happily having your family deported who have basically lived their entire lives there. No wonder they don't speak to her anymore. And the irony is, Trump would happily deport her, regardless of the fact that she came there legally.

When you have an evil man talking rhetoric like this and the people who he surrounds himself with talking basically extermination for a race of people you think there gonna stop with just them they’ll take all of us out they want a whites only America they don’t care read project 2025 talk to people that are still alive from the Jim Crow era this country still has racism still existing but y’all dump supporters think this man gives a damn about you he doesn’t
