We barely get by some of us working full-time jobs to live in safe area and then we have the illegals coming in hell no and then we pay for everything for them so sick of it.

Our president of the United States Donald Trump is back. He’s a man of his word and he means what he says. If you’re legal you’re a citizen you’re not getting nothing from the government free he will not bother you but if you’re not, you better watch out cause he’s coming after you. He’s gonna look at after the US citizens, his families and their selves who’s worked all their life to make America a better place in a safe placeyou can best believe that

Democrats have told the world we are a welfare state. Come get your piece of pie from the Americans who work for a living! The Democrats should be in prison!

Colombia did not accept because they were on military planes. If they would have been treated with respect and like human beings and arrive on commercial jets, they would have accepted. The same with Mexico. We would not like military jets or planes from other countries coming to our country. They are lucky they were not shot down. For all you MAGA people, there are thousands of jobs for you in the farming industry. We need our tomatoes, and oranges picked. Get to work MAGA and pick those crops.

Colombia wouldn't pay diddly it would be Americans, period. Tariffs, historically, don't work because the citizens pay them on any goods that come from that country. Colombian coffee is really good btw. We got people with no health coverage, homelessness rising, housing unaffordable to most, on and on, what is this administration doing for that?! Nadda, and won't, cause they don't care, want to know what Trump cares about, look at who had the best seats in the house at his inauguration, front row. It isn't coincidence.

Have you ever stop and think about the the dictatorship that is in the USA .most people don't even ? The system here we vote but do our vote counts the only vote that counts is the electerol vote and who tells the electerol vote how to to vote not the people the corporations the elites the 1% remember when bush run against gore in the 90s gore won the popular vote but bush won the electoral vote at the end the day Republicans and Democrats serve the 1% only and no one cares for the poor and middle class we need to vote more independent how is socialism bad because they care for the poor and middle class we need to stop listening to false propaganda they feed us that socialism don't work because it does... did you know that corporations pay taxes in Mexico and the new socialist partie in Mexico don't do bail outs for banks and corporations when the USA gov has come to you and say you are going to loose your house and your car don't worry we pay it for you Never but the USA gov do it all the time with corporations and banks with our tax payer money how is that right!!

Imagine you have your family, including small kids and older parents in your home and had one extra room for rent, you put ads out in the paper and interview some people for the spot, but while you are doing that, someone walked in your door and put all their things in your the room and then expected you to totally be cool with it. Anyone in their right mind, would be frustrated, even if that person was really nice and and said they'd pay rent. Any sane person would say, leave, go through the interviews, background checks, and then we'll see if it works out. It's not that you don't want to help them, but you have an order and a procedure that is in place for many reasons. \n\nImmigration is the same. It's not that the administration is anti-immigrant. We welcome ANYONE to come, you just need to come through the approved channels.

If the USA need farmers let the USA ambassies in those 3rd world countries do the recrutements and migrants will come ligally to work on farms and construction.\nBy the way Trump is investing in AI and soon USA won t need quantity but quality.\nAnd let the food price hike before you can say something .\nWhere was you when the foid price went up under biden?or was not it enough migrants working on farms?

Someone please makes sense of this for me. I'm placing a tariff on Columbian goods because i couldn't be bothered to pick up the phone and work with my allies? I'm raising prices by 25% on OIL, COFFEE and PETROL which will raise prices for the very voters i promised on day 1 to lower their living costs.\nSomeone please make sense of these opposing contradictions please. Does anyone actually believe he's so stupid as to still not fully grasp and comprehend that a tariff is a DOMESTIC direct consumer tax and the exporting country doesn't pay a copper penny to the US treasury? \nTrump's policies are to remove cheap labour from the country, while raising prices on every product coming into the USA . This is the moronic insanity MAGA voted for and millions of Dems stayed at home to not vote against. What a monumental mess in a week. Encore.

Colombia told them to use passenger planes not military. Sending military planes is an insult to their nation. The US needs to come correct. Keep making threats. BRICS is about to be the new works standard.

And all the lawyers and all the people are protesting to see that they stay in America and they come in illegally all the lawyers they should get arrested as well because you cannot come here illegally and they have lawyers working with them no get their lawyers arrested

They come for 2900 dollars a month, free housing, free food, & free hospitalization without working promised by the Democrats in exchange for their vote WAKE UP

Lol no one can just get green cards even before landing in the US you either have to cross the border, or come in using some kind of student visa, or come in using some kind of employment visa which is almost impossible because no employer will hire you if you are not eligible to work in thw US in thw first place

Why do these bottom feeders think they can just barge into our country? They have no rights. They don't belong here, we don't want them here. They have nothing, will only drain taxpayers. No skills, don't know the language, only want the things free that we Americans have had to work for, and now we're supposed to work to give these things to them? They come from violent places, diseased places, and many of them have and will commit horrendous acts against Americans. Thank God for President Trump and Tom Homan.

Hahaha WTF. Why do they even think this is going to work????? Come on in. Well take you right back! These people are so entitled.

Such a shame not being wanted is devastating we don't know what they go through in their country. But I agree they need to learn to stand up for their country and help each other create work for each other and provide for each other by sharing their food their vege gardens crops. Come on people learn to support yourselves in your own country.❤❤❤

Come in by applying and back ground checks performed and if you pass united states will issue you a work visa.\nStudy and be ready to take the test and pass to receive citizenship. \nVenezuelan we need to confirm you are not affiliated with the felon gang cartel.

Go back and use that energy to fix your own country instead of thinking you have the right to come here and take for free what Americans have worked paid taxes and died for you are not American unless you come here legally not hard to understand now is it

When they come to America, they should work..not depending on the government..

Now you see why Trump is doing a deportation right away , America is trying to survive and these folks need to stay home and fix their own country instead of coming in ours it ain't gonna work anymore thanks to Mr. Trump

They can complain in there own land but they want to come here and forced entry illegally and they claim they want all benefits and the minority they really come to earn there money by working\nSo is both ways

This is addressed mainly to the ugly Indian: My generation came to the racist west and built a golden reputation. We worked hard, assimilated, paid our taxes, and obeyed the laws. We were humble. We celebrated our native cultures within the confines of our communities. While it was frustrating to be invisible in white culture, we never sought to conquer them with our culture. We were ethical to the hilt. Our generations were poor -- yet we struggled to help others in India and in the west. We were NEVER on the dole. Personally I think it is rude to enter a nation (in the west or anywhere in the world) with naked opportunism. Speaking for myself -- despite neocolonialism, I admired western civilization, especially its older forms. \n \nBut the ugly Indian who comes now is loud, brash, socially irresponsible, exploitative, money-hungry, opportunistic, and arrogant beyond belief (full of the hubris that comes from sudden new wealth). They look down on us who have been here a while. They are used to a servant-culture and look down on white working class people, as if they are servants. As for second generation Indians in the west, they can be racist towards us first generations. But the opposite is true as well. Indian newcomers see them as an alien species. Indians do tend to hire their own and stick to their own identities -- I do not mean the Indian identity, but their native state identities. All this feeds into the primary and secondary forms of western racism that are already simmering beneath the surface. This new genre of Indians is destroying the goodwill we have built. I have personally witnessed arrogant young Indian students cutting the line to reach the front desk. No manners, no ethics. As a first generation Indian immigrant I get annoyed. So why shouldn't native born westerners (who are already racist)? \n \nBut to complain about how they smell is rude beyond belief. This must stop.

Hello Diamond. \nWhat if your spouse is coming with work visa, what happens?

Soon they will be orders for shots to be fired. We’ve sent mixed messages for years come in. Will give you permits to work don’t come in, but if you do will give you permits to work what do we expect.

Stop sabotaging their economies to grow and develop to create jobs. Help them build their countries. Stop the sanctioning and free their markets to yours for a mutual trade and benefits and they'll stay in their countries to work without coming to the USA for jobs . For every action....

They dont have problem having hizbullah head quarters in CANADA but some indian guy who come legally by attending interview and work in a Company that's a problem ?

These people don't understand that President Trump don't play around. He will literally bring tanks and the Army down there. And these people are going to have to turn around and go back whether they want to or not, but what's going to happen is they're going to assault police officers they're going to assault army people and they're going to get shot and then you're going to have the media. Covering it like it's the Army's fault that they had to defend themselves. The media should be ashamed of themselves. The Democrats should be ashamed of themselves, telling these people they can come here and live for free when the Americans have already spoken and said they cannot. These government officials forget they work for us. We do not work for them, but they seem to think that they control everything. This is where we the American people need to take our country back. We have to stop letting democrats think that they can control everything that happens because if they keep thinking that they are untouchable, or that they can keep controlling everything. What do you think going to happen to this country? We are already in the worst times we have ever been in in the USA period but the Democrats just keep going and going and going by giving these people free handouts and then expecting us not to say no, we can't handle them more of them. They are trying to overrun us, because what's going to happen is they're going to keep trying to let them come in, they are doing this for a vote. Do you not understand that the Democrats lost an election in a landslot? They figured if they can allow 40 or 50 million more to come in that they can stay in power for the rest of their time on this Earth until Jesus returned. That's what their plan is Their plans not to help Americans. They're planning to keep these people coming in, giving them free handouts, because they need votes, why don't people understand what's going on? If you bring in a 100 million for the illegal immigrants, they will vote single-handedly every time for Democrats, which will keep them in power, which will keep us homeless, which will keep American citizens begging for food, but they will still be giving these people free handouts from the American taxpayer. Now, what's going to happen is if these people actually get jobs instead of under-the-table where they have to pay taxes, they will quit working. They will quit working. Then the american taxpayer will be without a job.Then the immigrants won't work, and then you'll have a society where nobody's working doing nothing because the governments took all their money

Come legally, work hard, and you will succeed. ❤

Unfortunately the majority of them come from a certain region in India . Australia just banned the same states for running scams in universities and work . I’ve lived in Canada and people here have been absolutely loving and welcoming

If white people are so evil and racist, why do you insist on coming to live in our homes?\nindian immigration has destroyed this country, it will never be fixed. These ‘people’ behave like utter animals, destroying nature, poisoning the water, using beaches as bathrooms. They are extremely nepotistic and will only hire other indians and family, it’s next to impossible for young native born Canadians to get even basic level entry jobs if the person hiring is indian. \nindians have abused the goodwill of our citizens and our social assistance programs. For the first time in nearly a hundred years our local food banks had to shutter and turn people away because INDIANS were using it as a free grocery store when they had FULL TIME JOBS and brand new bmws, then they post videos on social media saying ‘how to get free food in canada’, while some poor emaciated bastard gets turned away. What makes it worse, a lot of these Indians, especially in the prairies, already have their groceries subsidized by federal government, and they STILL abuse the food bank. It’s not just food bank either, they all apply for welfare and immediately get assistance even though it takes months to get as a natural born citizen, and that’s even if you get it. I was shocked to find out the federal government was paying indians to move out of Ontario and BC into Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba because the coastal cities infrastructure was about to implode in certain areas. So they they told these people to move inland, and if they do and stay there for 18-24 months, they get $3300 dollars a month every month for that duration. My disability cheque, that I paid into for 40 years of hard work, comes out to 950 dollars a month. This is absurd. These people get literally everything handed to them, and STILL abuse the programs meant for those who are struggling. I have never in my life met such an arrogant and utterly dishonest and disgusting group of peoples in my life. This isn’t just one or two bad apples, this is happening in every city around here. They also get first dibs on any and all medical treatment and specialists. Many local residents who have already been on waiting lists for years to get treatment are getting bumped in order to accommodate the new invaders. It’s basically impossible to find a doctors or dentists office accepting new patients. ER rooms are full constantly of these people coming just for runny noses and coughs, clogging up the already strained healthcare system. The prairies hospitals (at least where I live) were barely holding together before this nonsense. Yet somehow, this is all just white people being racist huh? \nWell I’ll tell you what, I’m not white, my people were on this land long before anyone else can claim to be, and while I’ll admit there’s often still a lot of animosity between natives and whites, youd be quite surprised to see how many of us are in agreement towards the current behaviour of these people.

As an Indian Immigrant who left recently, here are few tips for Canadians:\n\n1. Not every brown person is Indian, I knew people from Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka identifying themselves as Indians.\n\n2. Its not entire India but two major states, Punjab and Gujarat, with majority of aggressive actions coming from IMMIGRANTS from Punjab and not native Punjabis who are born and brought up here.\n\n3. Immigrants can’t vote, so majorly its not your fault and so is not immigrants fault but the Government that the CITIZENS elected brought immigrants for boosting their dead economy.\n\n4. Controversial but I will say it, Canada is a FRENCH country with English as its second major language. No others language is as prominent, So if you are sure that a brown person is an IMMIGRANT and they can’t even speak ENGLISH properly let alone French, 99% chance he/she is a problem in your country and does labour work.

1. After Marriage going to usa and expecting citizenship to new born baby without proper paperwork which is illegal.\n2. Going on Student visa coming back to after 1 or 2 year then getting married Indian taking wife to USA and having idea to settle there with the baby is also illegal.\n3. Iam an indian and proud be that here im not supporting usa im just telling that he is trying to develop the usa as he is the president of his country some indian went there and fighting for rights to settle there which is completely not acceptable.\n4. Moving Illegally and expecting citizenship is completely wrong and more over in usa indians are the most top prioritize people because we work very hrad for the needs of not only one for the whole family.\n5.Trump has taken this decision to develop his country and he will develop his own country no matter what. We are Indians we'll always will be because we are capable of doing some miracles by being in india because of the dollar power and reputation of usa doesn't mean that india has nothing but yes we have everything here. no problem people who got immigrated illegally can go to the other good countries with proper paperwork this time.

Very complicate English accent but Canadian borning doesn't have jobs. They're not coming here for study but to get work permit and PR then stay in Canada forever ?

You guys gate kept the jobs from Canadians, rejecting our applications and pay us unliveable wage, then cry that you dont have enough workers, only to go get foreign workers to replace us.Then cry about crime rates and the housing market. Canadians want to work!!, we have been working for many winters now!!, but you guys keep preventing us from working because you want cheap labour. cheap labour comes with a lot more economic issues than hiring citizens. Our concerns were ignored and we were called lazy...to the point where someone like DONALD TRUMP is laughing at us and calling us a state. lining your pockets wasn't enough, now our integrity as a country is being questioned. If Trump made us a state, I would NOT be surprised.

??????????? it's seems like Canadians may have to go wherever these immigrants are coming from to seek work

People just imagine if someone you don't know coming in to your home later he brings in his friends and family than you are demanded to feed, cloth give them place to sleep find work, medical it becomes your responsibility for their welfare.while your own family, relatives,and friends have no such assistance.\nTotally insane.what Mr trump is doing is the wright and logical actions

They don’t have to give up hope, just have to come in the correct way. This is a chance to work there, save money so they can take of themselves once they get here instead of being a burden on us. Strange how they are afraid for their children being left after school but not scared of them drowning or being eaten by some jungle animal getting here.

If I want to work in the USA, I have to apply for a visa and work permit, present my documents, qualifications and credentials, plus criminal record and health check, show that I have adequate medical insurance and enough money to fund my stay. If granted permission to come, I then have to present myself at an official port of entry.\n\nALTERNATIVELY, I can fly to Colombia, pay gangsters to guide me through the Central American jungle, sneaking clandestinely through several countries along the way, and pay the local cartel to smuggle me illegally across the southern US border. Then I get free transport to a US destination of my choice, free housing, free clothes and personal items, free healthcare and legal advice, and a work permit without all that pesky paperwork.

Our president is Just a Puppet pulling strings for the Rich, ?Not for the poor it's called A Agenda Now there done using the immigrants so now there ready for the Robots to come in and clean, work, pick fruit ,Take care of your children ect , there so funny ???? and they think you all our Dum ?

Many people that acclaim asylum dont have a legit reason not trying to come here for work is not asylum.

What is the point of coming here?\nI am finding the way to leave the US instead. Mexico is a much better place to live.\nNo healthcare, heavy taxes, no housing. I can barely put food on the table.\nThere is no free stuff. You have to work for it

I pray for them and My heart hurts for them but immigration needs to be applied for properly and legally and I thank Good we have a President and Vice President and proper Government officals in office again??I pray for every soul who wants to come into country but they must abide by law and do it properly! My life was threatened by an illegal I was working with and when I report nothing was done?We need law and order in our country again and the attacks coming from the criminals and terrorists The Biden admin let in are immenant???Pray they do not blow whole country up as there is 60 thousand pounds of missing fertalizer .That's what was used in Oklahoma City. I believe we must pray hard for the safety of our country?May God Bless and keep our United States of America safe from the terrorists allowed in by Biden Administration????I pray constantly for safety of our Beautiful Country

I'm all for helping Mexico and Canada so citizens don't need to come to the USA over time but both countries must know that they have to do their diligence to make sure people that are not legally in their countries use that country as a pass through to the USA. I'm all for the USA, Canada and Mexico work together to stop the illegal drug cartels and gangs.

We are north American people and we are paying for all the benefits they received, we are native we are not allowed to receive those benefits , we have to work hard specially to pay our medical bills, they are coming give birth to their children, travel to their countries and never pay their hospital bills.! Who pays? Citizens taxes.

They dont even speak english and they want to come ?. You need to speak english to work.

Hello dear, hope you're doing well. I asked a friend to help me with an invitation letter to come to Canada and stay, but he said I need to pay $700 for myself and my wife for some documents needed for the invitation. Is this how it works? Thanks for your advice.

This is just stupid journalism and very biased views coming from a respected journalist... Poor home work... \nWhy haven't you talked about the number of scam agencies in India (some not even having a proper license to run as an agency), why haven't you talked about the Indians who cheat, forge, and falsify their documents to enter the aforementioned countries, why don't you mention the number of indians who marry a white just for a visa or residency and divorce them, why don't you mention the numerous amount of chapris who go abroad and in every way possible just ruin the name of other honest hard working indians, why don't you mention about uncivilized behavior when Indians are abroad.. like have u ever entered a hotel room after another Indian has left that room.. even an animal cleans up their crap better after their done...

Come to the UK, our government will let you in, set you up in a house and give you free housing benefits. You will earn more than someone who works and no questions will be asked and taxes will be raised AGAIN for us that do work. ?‍♂️

I am Canadian. Indian students coming here and demanding PR and to bring all their family. NO. I do not work all my life and pay high taxes to support your grandparents!! I can't even afford to have one child because a good life is expensive but you can have babies and not pay for them? And stop SCAMMING everyone. Not a good look. Scamming especially your own people. deprived and perverse and zero integrity.

Like you guys are complaining about things Canadians everyday are dealing. High costs of living,Cost of Food I myself work away from home hundreds of kilometres. You guys made the decision to come study here. Theres many other places to study. Lol.
