Canada doesn't owe you anything

So he thought Canada owed him something lmao

No one owes him shit.

15 years and doesn't speak a lick of english !? We need skilled english speaking immigrants.. not illegals who think we owe them a living.

I don't understand why people from shitty countries feel so entitled when they come to Canada. They act like we owe the world something. I have met so many newcomers who trash Canada openly I have lost count.

Before I moved to Brampton, I had no idea HOW MANY Indians actually lived here. I'm of south Asian descent but I grew up here as a Canadian. I still keep my culture but I'm Canadian FIRST. It's true too, some of them don't believe in deodorant, holy shit I literally had to tell a guy who sat beside me on the bus that he smelled. I know it was rude but if someone doesn't tell these people, they will think not wearing deodorant is normal. I miss the Canada I grew up in. My friends were mostly white but there was a nice mix of us: white, black, asian so we all got along. Today, everyone is in their own groups, strangers are the enemy, there is so much more segregation than there has ever been. Not long ago at a Tim Hortons I heard an Indian guy who was clearly new to the country telling his friend he didn't have to learn English because everyone in Brampton speaks Punjabi, it was insulting hearing that.....Listen up Indians and any immigrants coming here: BEFORE you come here, learn English, LEARN the customs and learn the CANADIAN WAY. You owe it to Canada, give something back before you start taking.

I have no sympathy for them. Follow the law or go home, we owe you nothing.

I lived in Central America for 8 years. I was there one year, learned to speak Spanish ( street Spanish). But I learned. Socialism isn’t what new lefty’s think it is. I’ve been to San Salvador (3 times). I liked it. These people are full of Merida, there in Canada for economic reasons, nothing more, it’s the exact same thing in the states. We owe them nothing

Just because Canada is a friendly, peace-loving nation doesn't mean were going to let you spill unfettered into our country. We have immigration laws---STRICT ones. We don't owe anyone allowing them to simply flood into our country. Get a clue.

Stay in Canada. We don't want you here. You are a criminal. You owe the US tax money and money for all of the benefits that you collected in our country illegally. You dirt bag.

Everyone thinks Canada has open borders to immigrants. Wrong. We let many in, and deny many. This guy talks like Canada owes him something. Wrong again. He will do what many do. Have a deportation order drawn up against him, and then he'll disappear.

Bad things happen to people who break the law. He knew the score and took that chance. They think they will come to the states or Canada thinking they will get paid with welfare and free medical. Why can't they stay in their own country and make it better. They want to live off white people like whites owe them. They're wrong. Send him and his family back to El Salvador. He wants to live in a white country that speaks English & French but don't teach his kids or himself English or French. How pathetic.

owee \nkanadda chlo oye???

totally another lie by the governments money sucking corporate voiceBig Brother says these people don't get more yet some have established business and bought housesListen to the lies at your peril now 200 million Ontario is owed by fedshow come seniors and veterans living on nothing

I have no simpathy!\nIt's not your country, they owe you nothing. America /Canada are beholden to American and Canadian citizens only.

Maby if these people didn't risk their familys lives (or the ones that send children unaccompanied) then they would be treated with more respect. Just because you think you are owed something doesn't mean you can break into another country.

we don't owe any illegal anything u are not entitled anything you violate our laws and cheat our system to get into our country while millions waiting innocently to enter legally.

It’s amazing how much I can relate. I’m white, so why should I, right? But when Stacey Mackenzie’s voice cracked, I knew why. I’m a Newfoundlander, we are made fun of too, we are looked down on too. My ancestors were flogged, but there’s no picture was of them. My ancestors we left to starve because they owed so much to the merchant, the didn’t deserve a barrel of molasses. They didn’t catch enough fish that summer to pay for the debts they incurred the year before. Nobody even knows why the debt they incurred wasn’t their fault. I’m not trying to diminish the history of my black brothers and sisters here, I want to know more of that history. But, you need to learn the meaning of the word “merchant”, if you think bigotry is based on race. Yes, bigotry based on race is wrong. But it’s not the only kind of bigotry.

its a criminal crying... go back to your nation. we owe you nothing

We have homeless people and reserves that are third world standards...and these are our country men and women... These people believe we owe them something.

So let me get this straight, an immigrant claims to be a refugee even though he isn't, skirted Canadian immigration officials and moved his family to evade the immigration hearing and now acts as if Canada owes it to him to stay.

Everybody's owed something

The clear sense of entitlement here is just insanity inducing. Why should any country accept you jumping ahead of so many others that are going through the proper steps to gain citizenship? It's not as if he doesn't have citizenship anywhere, or is running from the cartel or the Taliban or something. \n\nI'm sorry, but the world owes you nothing. Overstaying a work visa or a tourist visa is a crime for a reason. Try overstaying your welcome in China, Japan, Mexico, Israel -- anywhere in the world. This is not unique to the United States.

When we learn to look upon one another with compassion regardless of their race, religion or personal belief's and look instead at the heart of an individual, only then will we make strides to heal and to connect one another across Canada and the world. There's an overwhelming racism borne of intolerance for one another and intolerance is borne in my opinion often of fear. When we don't understand someone, we do tend to make up something to line the box that we force someone to live from but would never accept the same for ourselves. If you see someone being berated, being treated differently then you yourself would accept, you owe it to yourself and to the one being hurt to stand up and to intervene. When attitudes change, people change. Blessing's.

I have a rich multimillionaire Indian guy who owes me $650 for work I've done for his business, will CBC cover my story? or he'll get a pass cause he's brown and I'm white?

It's like Black people feel like the world owes them something.

Can some one tell me why Muslims what to live in country's other then where they come from? If Muslim women love to wear there hajib  why don't they stay in there owe country. What is the real reason they are here?

Love the video! It's interesting to hear your perspective now that you've been in the U.S. awhile. \n\nI would consider getting signed up for obamacare as soon as possible. It's not too expensive and even though you can be really careful it's definitely possible to get hit by a car biking or walking. The fees add up insanely quickly and you could owe a hospital tens of thousands of dollars from one emergency visit. http://obamacarefacts.com/obamacare-sign-up/

When the numbers aren't strong they play the victim. When their numbers are strong it's convert, pay a tax, or die. It's all in about a 3 hour read known as the Qu'ran. Everyone owes it to themselves to check it out.
