so, supposedly wealthy immigrants are coming to live in Toronto, so the rent goes on increasing. So, they are bringing money, landowners earning more, yet the anti immigrant spin on this is mindless.

What happens to the terrorists who mixed with the refugees and applies for a political asylum? There are sleepers everywhere it seems. \nIt is always great to be kind and compassionate, but there are grave risks, and aren't we suppose to protect our own citizens?

I always find it interesting when people who sue others that do not do as they are supposed to, then feel they do not need to do as they are supposed to. Deeqa has suffered a huge loss but that is not on the landlord, This province is facing a huge housing shortage that you would think they would give some safe guards to the people with homes to rent.

It has been a mind-numbing experience to witness the chaotic, insane destruction of our great nations, iconic cities. This goes to show you how fragile a supposedly robust, healthy city can lose its dignity, and reputation by not keeping a keen eye on who we put in office at the helm. President Biden has failed us at every turn. By design he, and his minions have destroyed the American way of life, FOREVER!!

Thats what u got coz u voted for biden and harris! Totally messed! The money that supposed to go to americans was spent on illegal immigrants like them! Shameful!

That's bull. The government has never invested in housing the way they were supposed to be. I don't remember the last time housing was part of election debate. Neither at provincial level nor national level. Immigration is again used at the boogeyman to justify housing problems. Grassroots organizations have been saying for years that we have a housing problem, and since it wasn't a sexy subject for politicians, they never talked or did anything about it.

The great replacement. All planned by the people who are supposed to work FOR the people. NOT to fill thier own pockets

We are seeing that because a bunch of idiots elected a dementia patient and a moron to run the country and they killed a great policy that was turning the tide. But they couldn’t let it ride because it would show capitalist and a free republic are good. That doesn’t fit with the commie propaganda they were trying to feed their 81,000,000 supposed voters.

Surah 5:21 says Allah gave the land to the Jews. Muslims even lie about what they're supposed to obey, which is qur'an.

It's okay for landlords to abuse the law, when tenants do it we are supposed to be outraged? I think these shameless slumlords are getting what they deserve. Greed only begets more greed.

We have a demographic problem??? ?What is that supposed to mean bud?????

and we are supposed to grin and bear it. Get real this is why we want our country back. Try building a Christian Church in their country and see what happens.

how do you suppose they get into Canada?? You're simply fearmongering.. Can't get into Canada without a visa., first of all, and second if they are let in to Canada, they got there by flight and a one-way ticket from Mexico city is $518 plus tax and fees per person...next, the passport exempt for the visa is Mexico, the influx of migrants are not Mexican, they are other countries and regardless of the perron, they need a passport to enter the country... How about we stop blaming everyone else and look in the mirror.. You jackasses voted Biden in, knowing what was going to happen, its the democrats own laws and own fault for simply opening the borders just to contradict Trump.\n Had Trump not been robbed of the presidency, youd have secure borders, no destroyed economy and wouldnt have let millions of foreign actors take root in the country... An interview with a terrorist leader told the reporter that the attack on America that is in the works will make 911 look like a warm up attack and it will be like nothing ever seen in the history of man... Better belive the southern border is an invasion. over 100,000 a month cross in the south, with 16000 total for the whole year on the northern border...

I was watching Flight Radar. I clicked on a Random flight coming to Toronto Pearson. It was Air India, It was supposed to land just across the lake in USA. It had been diverted. I wonder if it was diverted intentionally so all of them could stay in Canada? We build 200K homes a year, we bring in more than 500K people/year. U Can't get a job, all places are hiring newcomers cuz the Gov offers them subsidies to help pay their wages. Meanwhile, Canadians end up homeless.

These people pass through multiple countries on their way here so the asylum seeking claim is complete bullshit. If your seeking asylum your supposed to stop at the very first country you come into that has an asylum policy.

Canadians should live in canada, and indians should live in india as simple as that. Please stop ruining our life, its our country and in canada canadians are suppose to live even if you guys took our country passport

Housing is the bigger problem, not the immigrants. We allowed foreign buyers to mop up all the detached and artificially raise prices. Now homes are 8-10x income when banks will only lend you 4x. How does that math work? Are Canadians supposed to have 600k saved if they want to buy a start 1M detached in Toronto? There are a multitude of issues in Canada right now.

International students in Canada are generally expected to have enough funding to cover their tuition and living expenses for the duration of their studies. This requirement is part of the study permit application process, where students must demonstrate proof of sufficient funds.\nThe fact that a lot of these students came here expecting to find work is not what they're supposed to be doing.\nI think one can unfortunately easily see they're being exploited as cheap labors here.

It’s fine we are supposed to open our country to the 2 billion people on the planet no questions asked.

The government told people that there is a housing shortage AND let in a record number of new people. How are people supposed to react? Imagine if there was a famine and the leader said “hey, let’s go share our food with somebody else”. You can’t reasonably expect people not to react this way given the narrative that the government itself is putting forth.

I guess this is supposed to apply to all of Canada but really this video should say ”Toronto” instead of “Canada”

Why don't they stay in Canada, isn't it supposed to be more friendly and inclusive there?

It’s not supposed to be permanent, one year after school that’s it!

Personal interest and personal agenda over citizens and country! Yet the job is specifically suppose to be to work for the citizens.

Taxpayers are footing the bill & suffering the consequences. Liberal govs are not listening to the people they're supposed to protect & represent FIRST. List is too long but anyone paying attention knows.

I don’t understand this “reporting”. If I go to Chinatown and become enraged after seeing majority Chinese population I’d say something is wrong with me. Go to a small town in Alberta, Manitoba etc you’ll see majority white people. People in the comments keep saying “Canadian” what is a Canadian. What values do born Canadians (such as myself with Pakistani parents) that other ethnicities don’t have which makes them unCanadian? Are we supposed to dress or behave in a certain way to earn the Canadian label?

harris is doing this so she can get there votes I k they aren't suppose to vote but mark my words they will some way or another..We are gonna have to go to there side of the country so they can have ours,,is getting scarry

Texas won a lawsuit that demands for the border wall to be built. I suppose news got out to these moochers and now they're getting into the US from the other opened door. We're toast.

US Marshals are supposed to be checking these busses but the companies chose to stop them, I wouldn't just blame Canada for this

Yet i cant go across the us border from Canada because i have a marijuana possession charge from 25 yrs ago. I suppose id be a liability but these ppl are who from where with what intentions? Yeah..go figure.

Don't suppose Canada would help us out here, eh? Their PM is a complicit progressive regime so I don't see that they'll be much help, in fact we'll probably find out they are helping to facilitate it. We need Trump in office to solve this mess, and it will happen quick! Trump 2024

Aren't you supposed to have a passport?

Canada is an asylum country so by law migrants are supposed to seek asylum at the first country they land in with that status . BTW Mexico is also an asylum country , being it has one of the strongest economies of the world . not owning a tesla does not make you a refugee . It makes you greedy .

There are now quite a few news stories in Canada of immigrants leaving the country - some back home and others to the USA and other places. Many just get a Canadian passport and then leave. There are public health care and pensions, so it can be an asset and also a convenient travel document to have. A lot of Canadian university graduates have a very hard time finding work in their fields and a lot of them look to the US for a better future. Both immigration and unemployment in Canada are much higher that in the US - so more people are chasing fewer jobs that often pay less and are taxed more than in the USA. Opportunities are generally a lot fewer in Canada than the US, and the business environment is not as favourable, and taxes significantly higher. You would be getting some of the entrepreneurs from Canada moving to the US for more favourable conditions as well to launch a business and also now a lot more rich investor types, so-called high net worth individuals wanting to relocate, because they just raised the capital gains tax in Canada. Capital gains is also triggered on inheritance in Canada with a deemed sale of property and assets, so rich people would prefer the American system and want to be residents there for tax purposes and have their assets grow in value in the US compared to Canada. There are very large numbers of foreign students and other categories of immigrants which may have as their goal going to the US after getting a temporary visa to Canada which is easy to get - maybe something like half a million to a million people in those categories depending on the year, plus around another half million regular immigrants and refugees now. The Trudeau administration has increased immigration to record numbers. It has been steadily going up over the years for several decades since 1990. Because of family re-unification it can have a snowball effect and could significantly exceed 1 million per year. A lot of the sending countries have much larger populations than Canada, so there are a lot more that can be potentially sent to Canada in the future. About 1/4 of the population of Canada has been added in the past few decades. Add to that visitors and temporary visas - that is a lot of people potentially moving to the US. Before the 1990s Canadians visiting the US were not required to have a passport and a drivers' license or birth certificate was adequate. Now a passport is required. It is impossible to effectively control the long Canada-US border, so there could be some unified policies in that area agreed on between Canada and the USA on immigration and refugees. Canada currently has a very open immigration policy with the government actively seeking out more immigration beyond its current processing capacity and trying to take rejected immigrants from other countries. The Canadian government, especially in recent years under Trudeau is immigration hungry. It might be the only country in the world doing that. What some news reports are now saying is that some immigrants are actually leaving, since they find it so difficult in Canada and some are worse off than they were in the countries they came from, which were considered to be less developed than Canada. \nWashington currently has more immigration controls and administrative competencies than Ottawa, so US pressure and influence is a faster way to get reforms into the system than waiting for local politicians to do anything, which is unlikely. Canada is seen by some as a backdoor into the US. Biden's immigration policies could be seen as very conservative in Canada compared to Trudeau's. It used to be in the news about how refugees were trying to get to Canada and walking across the border in Quebec and out west from the US earlier, but now there are more news stories of immigrants leaving Canada trying to go the other way, probably due to high costs and unemployment because the government took in more people than it could absorb into the economy. They have the idea that immigration drives GDP growth so that they can borrow and spend more, expand the civil service, etc. without making any cutbacks or efficiencies, supposedly without the Debt to GDP ratio getting worse, just by bringing in more people as if that would drive the economy. A lot depends on who you bring in as well. Are they going to go on welfare, are they going to increase crime, will they somehow contribute to society, are they a net tax benefit or cost in terms of government services, will they invest money, will they start a business and create jobs for others ? Those issues do not factor into government decision making in Canada for the most part. Ontario Premier Doug Ford did say there were too many foreign students. It is bad planning not to consider those factors since there are other costs that grow with those policies as well, and infrastructure has to be expanded. I think that the real immigration numbers to Canada are not transparent or made public, nor are the costs involved, if anyone even knows what they are. Nor is the impact on crime. You can guess from what the reports are in other countries. The Fraser Institute has made some estimates on the net costs of immigration to the government budget a few years ago, which were very high and which by now have increased - the cost equivalent of several new aircraft carriers each year. They are big numbers which are not publicized, but it amounts to the fact that immigration is subsidized by the taxpayers in Canada and it is not paying for our pensions as an ageing society as has been claimed. There is less money for education, health care and pensions per person, and those social benefits will probably have to be reduced over time. Social programs can only be delivered to the extent that the government has money. The bigger social system a county has, the more such immigration policies are going to cost. Trudeau has been expanding various social programs as well, so higher taxes and debt are likely with that approach. Then more productive people and companies will want to leave Canada and go to the US. Probably the government does not know what the actual numbers and costs are and doesn't actively keep track of that information beyond what is required. Probably nobody knows what the true immigration figures and their associated costs are in Canada, and hardly anyone has even studied those issues. If they can just walk across the US border and get papers so easily making an asylum claim, it is not surprising, since it would take them longer to get a regular visa and work permit if they did it legally. You could call that a loophole in the US immigration system which is being exploited. The US is better governed in general and has a better system in many ways, but I am not sure if it is the same on that. People have arrived on boats and have not been sent back. At least in the US you have more open information about those issues. In Canada it is hard to find out anything about it. Deportations from Canada are very few. \nOn other issues in Canada when voting in federal elections you have to show a government issued photo ID like a drivers' license or passport to vote and bring a card that was mailed out to eligible voters that gets updated addresses when a person files their taxes. I have never heard of mail-in ballots in Canada, but there are remote areas of the country in the far north who may have special system for voting. It is easier to get a Canadian citizenship than US and many more citizenships are handed out in Canada each year in proportion to the population than in the US. Canadian might be one of the easiest citizenships to get in the world. The official line now is that it is a country of immigrants. Based on current trends, will very little opposition to it in the parliament and most MPs supporting it, future immigration to Canada could increase to several million per year because of the rapid growth of population in the world, and the momentum already growing of immigration to Canada, so it may change significantly in the future. Historically around the world you can see many examples that country names, borders, flags and languages change over time with population changes, so it might not be called Canada anymore in 50-100 years. For example, Bulgaria used to be called Thrace which had been a powerful kingdom in antiquity and had a different language which is barely known about anymore. Over the past 2,000 years it has gone through a number of changes and had various regimes governing it, has been independent and also part of several different empires. Canada has only been a country for a short time in comparison and has been been going through significant changes. Trudeau has said that Canada is a post-national country. Canada is also going through a period of critical self-examination and deconstruction-revisionism. A lot of what had been viewed as positive from its history now is seen more critically, with re-naming and removing historical figures now seen as negative.\nDiscussing immigration policy critically is considered by many to be taboo in Canada, unless a person is saying good things about it in general. You can hear people say that the government isn't processing enough people, for example, but not often that there are too many or that it costs a lot of money. The trend of migration from Canada to the US would only increase much more in the future as it is going currently, and its role as a stepping stone to migration to the US could increase. The way this would be seen by many in Canada is that they are losing valuable people to the USA whom they consider assets, since a lot of officials have been trying to bring in more people into the country, but not everyone wants to stay in Canada nowadays because of a lack of jobs and opportunities. Canada is quite laissez-faire about migration, with Toronto being a sanctuary city as well.

IT'S GETTING CLOSER TO VOTING TIME WE WATCH OUR POLL BOOTH'S WE KNOW EXACTLY WHO'S SUPPOSED TO BE THERE AND WHO AIN'T.

I work 50 hours a week and I can’t afford to go to Mexico. My question is, how can these “immigrants” afford to come to America when they are supposedly jobless?????

It’s amazing how you can claim to be an asylum seeker and bring over to America the SAME CRIME YOU SUPPOSEDLY NEED TO BE SAVED FROM ?

So what are we supposed to do stop Canada from letting all these people in

AMERICANS GOT TO SAVE AMERICA NOW!!!! Vote wisely please!!! Four more years of this and American born citizens will be the immigrants in our own country!! Trump 2024!!! Black woman from Ohio!! Crazy as hell !!!! Take ,Take , and Take some more!!! We barely have housing for Americans Now…IDC all kinds of new diseases are coming too!!! Suppose this is Trumps fault too!!! WAKE UP !!!!??❤️❤️❤️❤️

I'm Canadian with no criminal record and they won't let me across the border. But if you're an immigrant from wherever the hell, and you're willing to actually f*** the system, there's no problem. \n\nSo wait all I have to do is actually lie to the border guards? \n\nI thought that was supposed to prevent people from abusing the law and now it's become an incentive.

If they go to Canada they are suppose to seek asylum there. It is suppose to be illegal to go to another country. But our Country doesn’t follow its own laws, so we are doomed.

misinformation. in 'murica, ALL politicians are ELECTED by the people!!! if the politicians are NOT doing what they suppose to do then the people should, could and can remove them by voting/electing another one. yet , somehow, 'murican ALWAYS blame on the politicians whose they ELECTED!!!??‍♂️??????

We're supposed to be concerned about the safety and well-being of foreign invaders, while many of our own citizens are sleeping on the streets?\n1Timothy 5:8 comes to mind. ✝️??

Absolute failure! Our Government is supposed to protect the border!!!!\nThe Mayor and those who voted for him have no one to blame but themselves! \nFree shelter, food, money, why wouldn't you want to come to NY?!!!!

The state cannot continue to be a powerful agente that facilitates the supposed integration of immigrants through the use of money from citizens who pay taxes. Giving away freely what cost others tears and sweat until we sick.the media bombards use white continuous information with the aim accepting a disproportionate immigration with nefarious laws, with the help of nefarious ONG. We need a political change

Your politicians, whom you voted for, supposedly, wanted to be a sanctuary state and city. Enjoy the cultural enrichment!

Canada is supposed to be an ally. This is how your enemies treat you , not your allies .

??F New York ?? complaining while continuing the handouts ?? I thought New Yorkers were supposed to be smarter than everyone else ??

1; Venezuela is supposed to be the richest country in the entire world…\n2; these ain’t Mexicans\n3; trump cut this shit down so low, and every liberal was screaming at him, I clearly remembered Biden and kamala telling them that America is wide open, y’all are welcome. So they formed wicked caravans and marched in their huge terrifying numbers…

This is bcoz of the biden administration's laxity n incompetence by changing border laws. Where is kamala Harris. She is supposed to control this flooding of illegal immigrants into USA
