Dear , you don't have to feel sorry. I am sure your intention is very very good. Seems you are good human beings. I lives in UK for 18 years. In beginning I struggled a lot. During past 18 years I have travelled lots in various countries and seen so many settled people who are origin from respective country or are settled from ages . But you also note that thay had gone through with same as beginner going through, or might b lot . I like your post, and doesn't notice any ego or proud in that . I like that . But what I mean to say is everyone from India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka or Bangladesh , before come in English country or in any country, are starting very big dreams and after step into new country they don't accept positive things and blames only those countries where thay have gone for higher education or for earning money. Still they stay there and says here is blot like india , dongle come here , or we have to do this type of job .They don't have servants there, they have to wash their clothes themselves, cook themselves and clean house themselves . That's why thay are saying bad words for that country and still they want path of permanent residence of that country. I am not against of india but if you are staying in English country for 6 months, I request you please make video for how government works for their people, how smooth you can run your business without giving bribe to government officers , how police officers are doing their job and how pure is system . And please all these compare in India and suggest life is easy there or not . I love my country and during my 18 years in UK , I came back to India with my family to settle down the rest life but because of some government officers ( on each step asking bribe for business) , and not getting support from government, decided to go back to UK .I mean to say in English country there is value for poor person or for rich person. In india government hospital are free but look how they treat the patient. Please compair each sector and make video. If you do this would be very grateful. And please mention about politicians in English country and in India. Then people who stays there and complaining same country ( not you ) ,will realise the values . Take care. Best luck.

What is wrong Canada?\nWe are a country who welcomes legal immigrants but we are now starting to live in a country of fear.\nOur borders are allowing illegals and dangerous ones at that.\nOUR MEDIA are staying silent and putting lives at risk.\nI am so proud of THE FIFTH ESTATE for not silencing us on the only thing we ask for TRUTH.\nKeep up the GOOD WORK....\nPlease help Canadians and do an episode on the ISIS TERRORIST.\nWE ARE IN SERIOUS NEED OF TRUTH AND SAFETY.

Disappointed mini punjab..\nEducated illiterate people.\nIndia 3rd powerful country\nCanada ?\n1000 Reasons That Make me Feel Proud To Be An Indian.

How could you not inform yourself to the best of your ability so that you are prepared? My mother looked into everything, gave up everything, to come to Canada. It was tough, but did it so that the kids she would have would be Canadian, a country she believed in. \nI’m so proud to be Canadian, and for us to be a country that welcomes all, but those that come should inform themselves of the processes and try to learn the culture, not just have it as a ‘better life’ ticket.

I m living in uk for 10yrs now but i misss India very badly every single day of my life. I love my country and proud Indian. You always have feeling of 2nd class citizens in abroad caz u r. Their culture, food, tradition, belief, child upbringing, husband wife bonding, relatives, friend buying meals, respect etc all very very different than us. And thats wht I love in India n not selfish attitude lonely western life.

It's very easy to say I proud on my India and I love my India but the reality of life in India very terrible and very bad.\nNow the situation is like rich people getting more rich and poor people going more worst poor\nAnd in future India have nothing but increasing prices of Dollar currency & euro & pound \nmassive corruptions...cases &\nWe pay tax but we don't know where our tax money goes still we have dirty roads and no proper women safety & i shame to say this capital of India Delhi city is the rape capital city of India.\nIncreasing price of petrol desil & gas....Hindu & Muslims fightings.\nThat's why millions of people specially from north India and all over India want to go other country like Canada & never wanna come back & cool weather for Indians not a big deal if you ware three to four layers for four months that sets

As a Canadian, I have to say that I'm very proud that we are able to take so many immigrants. Our first Prime Minister was an immigrant. Our country was built on immigration. Ask yourself who built this country? Immigrants did. But with every wave of immigration comes prejudice. Irish, Ukrainians, Polish have all seen there share of prejudice. Now its brown people from Syria that escaped with the cloths off their back. Maybe you should be thankful for what you have, that you are able to live in a country where you dont have to worry about your fundamental freedoms.

I'm tired of the words illegal immigrants, all I migrants from other countries illegal or not speak or try to speak English to fit in. Mexicans don't do either. Learn english or try to fit in. That is why they are on the American people's radar. It's not racism to be proud to be a American or expect these people to conform. That is were we are losing the battle.

she's really proud for living in a stolen land. her ancestors are most definitely european. there's no 'real' canadian. only native americans. if i were there i would've told her to go back to her own country too.

They discriminate against Canadian born Chinese too, so I left after my Engineering Master and MBA.\n\nCannot say that I was proud to be born in Canada. Many of these bad incidences are what I remembered as a child. Canada's racism is a polite type. I did go back to my country of color.

It’s literally the definition of anti-women and discrimination. Your forced to wear a thick peace of black cloth around your face (hiding it, including the rest of her body) in some of the hottest places on earth. Your not only forced to wear it but also have all your rights token away. The fact that u as a women can stand their and defend Islam is just pure ignorance let alone stupidity and brainwashed. You would think they would stand up for the rights of women in the Middle East but instead try to force this ideology on ppl in other countries instead of even trying to fix/help their own which they r so proud of ¿? Wake up people

Wtf i cant feel bad for them wtf makes u think its ok to sneak into a country and live there like wtf im american and i cant just go sneak into any country and live there they would kick me out jist as fast and id love to live in another country dont get me wrong i love america proud and happy as hell to be here i just wish i could go live anywhere i want on my terms lmao

As a proud atheist, I find all religious costumes to be either degrading, or just plain hilarious. \nTheir minds are poisoned from the time they are born, and that's child abuse. \nWe should be asking why we are allowing so much immigration. The answer - families don't have as many kids. Why? Kids are expensive, and when your giving over half your salary to the government, having no kids may be your best option financially. So the government responds by keeping taxes high, and making up for smaller family sizes by recruiting immigrants from the Philippines, Nigeria, Sudan, etc.. The handful from Syria get all the attention, but they are a small fraction of the total. \nSo either start having more babies, or start preparing for the multicultural mosaic where the liberal values that made this country great will need to be protected, and I would say, promoted.

People just don't get it Muslims hate everyone who is not a Muslim there is no peace with these people, Canada wake up they will pass laws to stop u from saying anything against Islam ????? what ???? ya that's right they are trying to pass a law for this and as we sit on our hands it will get passed...Liberals and CBC are a bunch of Fakenews!!!!!!!! ruining our country Liberals do not care about the white people and our way of life they just want to stay in power.......Finally i'm not sure if anyone in Canada is watching the rest of the world but Immigration of Muslims just destroys countries turns them into civil wars......now the back lash of this post will be i'm racist but i'm white and proud of it i love Canada the way it is and whats wrong with this !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why do muslems in Canada say there proud to wear the burkas when women in Saudi Arabia don't have a choice? They cry over there that they have to cover there entire face but when the come to a free country they don't stop wearing it!!! And the say Islam is peaceful religion, but they kill ( not talking bout Isis) Christians, Jews, gays, women that disobey...blows my mind.. ?

The real Canadians were proud for the multicultural in their country, and this is part of its success; however, this generation are less tolerant!!

My experience in Canada has been largely positive, with only minimal racial difficulties.  As a teenager, I do recall some kids making blatantly racist comments, when I was the only minority in the room; but they were silly girls, popular and full of themselves, and most of the students who heard did not laugh with them. We all knew it was wrong.  Another time I was told, by an agent, that a potential employer claimed she would not hire me because of my race.  I did not hear these words firsthand, though, so it was impossible for me to verify the truth. In the end, I let the matter alone. Other people,  I realize, have endured severe injustices; such have not been my experience, but this does not subtract from their reality.  Indeed, racism does exist, and shall remain as long as there are imbeciles wallowing in the mire of ignorance, people who cling to an absurd sense of superiority for lack of something more meaningful to hold.  As well--and it must be said!--quite likely, we all have, at some point, entertained discriminatory thoughts. 'Tis not a 'black and white' problem but a human one, and we must be mindful of it beginning with ourselves.  Canada, then, with its many inhabitants and complex history, will never be the exception. We can't expect perfection among people, here or anywhere else in the world.  Even so,  I believe there are enough fellow Canadians who strive to treat people as individuals and are happy to make friends across cultures.  My life has been and continues to be a testament to that!  Whatever our troubles, we still retain a proud heritage of diversity and progressive ethnic harmony.  We do try, and for this reason I love my country.  I am deeply patriotic and immensely proud to be part of it!  

lol these boys really got it wrong, im a proud muslim now the sharia law, ok the sharia states that you should abide by the laws of the country you are living in.
