Some people say come in legally, but he can't seek asylum just because he wanted to protect his family or want a better life for his children. It doesn't work that way. He has to have documentations or proof that his life or family's life is in DANGER. That is why he can't come in legally because he will not be approve on just those conditions, surprisingly even in Canada. When Trump was tough on the illegals on our southern borders, I remembered seeing Canada PM said they are welcomed in Canada. I guess many people heard it too and took him up on his offer. What happened Trudeau having to eat crow, eh?

I didn't know Canada had a prob with the Chinese. Seems every western country has its probs with immigrants but I've never had any prob with the Chinese here in UK esp not with them scamming people. Indian & Arabs r the scammers here the Chinese work hard n keep to themselves. You must be unlucky I guess

I grew up in BRAMALEA, now incorporated with Brampton. BRAMALEA was an idyllic community made up primarily of Brits, European, and African-Canadians. Then Justin’s Dad (Pierre) opened the floodgates of immigration in the ‘70’s to ensure his re-election while transforming Canada into a Socialist Society (Socialized “Free” Health Care paid for by mammoth taxes on the middle class) while promoting “Multiculturalism” as the new Canadian Utopia. In his later years, while close to death, Pierre declared that “Multiculturalism DOESN’T WORK!” And, guess what? Neither does “Free” Healthcare!” As each culture swelled, they felt as though they didn’t need to assimilate. When I return to Canada/Brampton to visit family, I’m disgusted! The Indian residents (who Now comprise about 90% of BRAMLADESH’s population) do NOT look after their housing/property. The older/original neighborhoods where I grew up (well-cared for homes with manicured lawns, lush green-belts with pathways connecting neighborhoods and parks) now borders on slum-like conditions. It’s sad and downright depressing when I visit. All of my high school friends have fled the dilapidated area, and no wonder! Canada’s lax immigration laws, failed “Multiculturalism” and Socialist welfare system have all destroyed Canadian culture AND their middle class (strangled by immense taxation). I was fortunate to have grown up in the BRAMALEA of old, but I am so blessed to have escaped when I did! ??

CANADA, IM GUESSING THE MAN.WERE PAKISTANI, WOULD.ISLAM HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH HER COMMENT

Omg... Canada has and enforce immigration laws !!!!!! Lmao... guess what if you try to cross the border and you have a criminal record in the USA you'll be arrested.... hmmm just like here.. which is why so many from south of the border cross illegally they have criminal records in their home countries... it's why so many don't even bother to try and come legally.

Taxpayers will pay all the bills, within a few years Canada will be bankrupt with open borders \nwith massive welfare, 90% of refugees of today will never work guess who will pay YOU\nthe taxpayer Its time Canadians wake up to this massive scam!!

So I guess Canada is racist now?

Guess what! The refugees are using taxpayers money to buy latest iPhones instead of saving up for food and education!! We need conservative with common sense policies to make Canada ?? great again!!

I live in Toronto, Canada.\n\nFirstly, their are 500 men,women and children being placed in hotels temporarily. Much better than cages! \n\nSecondly, these individuals have already gone through the immigration process, hearing claims, back ground checks, medical checks. So these individuals in hotels have already been accepted to stay in Canada. They are in hotels due to Housing shortage issue. \n\nThird, way more illegal immigrants have been detained and removed from Canada. \n\nFourth, most of these people are families. Canada is very skeptical of accepting males. Sorry guys! \n\nFifth, these hotels have a contract with the government. These are the same hotels that were used to temporarily shelter Syrian refugees. Usually 3-4 families stay in one hotel. 500 people won't be staying in the same hotel. Plus the hotels charge the government an insane amount. So they make money. \n\nSixth, more than 10% of hotel cleaning jobs go unfilled. Guess what? Most of these asylum seekers end up working in the hotels they're staying in because of program called Employing Newcomers in Canadian Hotels Project. \n\nDon't worry about us America we know what we're doing. Trust me, no children were separated from their families and placed in cages.

Guess he didnt know , That Canada only caters to Muslims. He should've told them he was Muslim then they would've gave him a house, welfare and free education .

Trudeau...idiot, spoiled trust fund, groper, corrupt. It's bad enough two years ago he invited immigrants (mostly criminals) from the US into Canada but now he is spending our tax dollars to put them in hotels. Where else in the world can criminals be treated like royalty? Guess we'll be seeing more come in. Canada has become a joke. We need a strong opposition to put Trudeau in his place or just get rid of him.

5000 reported in May this year (thats almost half a year) compared to over 35,000 the year before. So by May the year before it was close to 15,000+. Guess ice is doing a good job here in America by cutting Canada's migrant influx down by securing our own borders and shipping the ones that got in, back home. Now theres 3x less this year for Canada. XD

Stephen Ledrew is kind of a nobody in Canada. I live in Toronto and I had to Google him. He was fired from CP24 in December 2017 for violating the non-competition clause of his contract by appearing on Fox News Channel. \n\nSo I guess being a paid shill on Fox pays better?\n\nAnd why not temporarily the house immigrants in hotels? Isn't that better than concentration camps Sessions seems to favour? Not the four Seasons obviously but motels and such.

I'm supposed to feel bad for a guy that is in Canada illegally? Sorry i guess.

The buses still go south!!!! ENOUGH of the POOR him bull crap...he KNEW when he smuggled his family and himself to Canada he was breaking the law!!! Did he care...hell no...he didn't!!! Guess he expected more from Canadians who struggle to live here too!!

You must come to Canada with your pockets full of money and you better have a means of Making a living,or you will not be allowed to enter into Canada or Live. Trudeau was grandstanding he was just trying to show up Trump, And now everyone knows he's nothing more than a blowhard....I guess that little stunt cost the Canadian People a small fortune and will continue to cost Canada. Maybe you Canadians should start building a wall. Your gonna need it.

It's intersting how Canada will welcome muslim refugees but not Latin Americans. I guess it's only trendy to accept muslims.

I thought Canada was a nice country with free health care I guess not

Excuse me lady with all do respect to the good people \nAmerica and Canada is all about migrants and refuges what's with this !! This is basically your history no one is pure native \nThe whole world is not pure we all mix \nCheck your DNA \n\nWho is going to pay your taxes now ha \nGood for you \nNo apology is accepted I guess it's too late

We don't have racial problems in Canada!  That statement blew my mind.  What is it about the color of my skin that scares people?  How long will white folks have that natural fear because my skin complexion is a little different?  I guess there just program that way.  To be honest, there not the only ones.  Black folks can be a little shaky towards the own too.

I guess his wife's hypergamy is going to take over and getting smashed by some white Canadian beta if he can't stay in Canada I guess.

This is a sad story for this poor guy and I feel sorry for him.But how can anyone live in a country for more than 15 years and not speak the country's language fluently?.It really boggles my mind.C'mon.If I were to live in Germany then I'd make sure that I could speak German before moving over there.That's a crying shame.Shame on him for not speaking English while living all this time in America.I reckon that many of these illegal immigrants from Hispanic communities just don't seem to care to learn the language or to assimilate to our culture and traditions.They give us the impression that all that they want is the benefits that the country has to offer them.I guess immigration on both countries should deport the ones who've been living in the country illegally for many years and can't speak the language or don't wanna assimilate.There's just no excuse for not learning the language during all this time that he had lived in America.\nOn the other hand these people are morons for trying to go to Canada.Canada's immigration laws are pretty restricted and even tougher than in the United States.Canada will never give them a heart felt warm welcome and they should know better.They should know that Canada is a POINT OF NO RETURN.

It’s sad and disgusting to read the comments by all these privileged entitled little bit.ches who’s greatest accomplishment in life was being born on a different part of the the world than this man and they feel they have the right to open their mouths with such righteousness. What would you do for your family or at least for yourself if you were born in a country where there was poverty and crime every single day of your childhood. This guy was MAN enough to risk his life to leave his country leaving family behind just so that he didn’t die. And I know what your first ignorant comment is gonna be “he could’ve done it legally”. No he couldn’t because if he could I’m sure he would have done it. And he even tried to do it legally here in Canada and spent $15K and was denied. But here you all sit behind a keyboard all brave with your privileged entitled life judging a man who all he wants is a better life for his family. And to the “men” who are commenting and judging this man as “an everyday criminal” I guess you wouldn’t give a s.hit for your wives and kids if they were living in a dangerous and poor country or being sent back to an environment where you could potentially be killed the first week you’re back. I guess you would all just say “fu.ck them let them die”. You fu.c.king cowards.

Lmao would you look at that, Canada isn't this haven with open borders like the liberals have painted it? Who would of guessed Canda also had immigration laws just like the rest of the world.

I guess Canada is all show and no go! #trump2020

In the scheme of world politics Canada is doing fairly well, sorta. Now here is a different angle. Outside of racial issues, who would hire someone over 55? Now there is another discrimination issue. Guess we cannot all be caucasian males under 25.

this is a great show. I live in the NW in the USA and I have been to Canada a few times. I never realized how much racism was in Canada. My ignorance is bliss I guess, but it's still better than the racism here in the States.

I thought canada was supposed to be better than America. I guess not judging by the trolls in the comments that seems to hate cbc but watch and comment on all their videos.

Canada is a Christian country and the muslim community must denounce Islam and be Canadain or leave. No one wants this country to look like Europe. There are good muslims and you can tell who they are. They are the ones that want to fit in to Canadas values. I would gladly protect any muslim that wishes to truely become a Canadian. Guess who I would have to protect them from? It is not Canadians they fear but muslims.

I thought Canada was cooler than that. I guess I was wrong but I have visited here six times. It is better than America where police here kill you (Mostly black men) without penalty. U.S.

You know what ...\n\neverythings fucked in some sense. I don't mind, nor is it my business how another life wishes to exist. The only thing I know is that In Canada there have been many fundamental aspects that are maintained by Canadians. Such as freedom of expression, freedom from limitations based off of sex or other social cliches and so on. \nSure we tolerate all different ways of life. This is a new wave of idealogies that will bring back the old imprisoning features, just with a new way of presenting it. We eventually found a harmony with Christianity. We will Find one with Islam. \n\nI really dont understand this religion though. I dont get why a women would want to conceal what she is. I guess I have to research it... I got more important things to do though than to read some other persons doctrine on how to exist thankyou very much.

Speaking as a white man I have to admit I don't quite understand the need for anyone to organize as a race in Canada. First generation clubs from whatever country, sure, but as a race? Is it the elephant in the room... American slavery?  I can't help but think that most perceived problems blacks have in Canada are due to American issues we see in movies and media.\nWe in Canada bend over backwards to offer opportunity to succeed. Even touching on racism is widely and loudly crushed. I personally, as do most, give any individual the opportunities they deserve but it's up to them to screw it up or not. To me, if any minority can't make it in this society they aren't trying.\nIt's actually worse in my mind to be white male in public forums because our views and opinions are marginalized and shouted down. Youtube and the internet are the few forums where honest feelings and opinions can be spoken. No one with anything to lose would say this in public for fear of attacks from the thought police. Pretty sad we live in a free country that actually doesn't allow free speech from all. I guess some are more free than others.\nKeep telling me I'm unfair and bad, when I'm not and I might actually grow resentment and the very prejudice you're complaining about.
