How is it possible that they are saying deportation numbers were higher during Biden administration, yet we have been faced with the worst immigration crisis in the history of our country? Also, I would never want to sour any relationship with any country but I solute our President for being a nonsense approach and defend his country from criminals. My God, can you imagine what scum we had amongst us, if even their country doesn’t want them. I can live without Colombian food. They can stuff it up where the sun doesn’t shine. I’m only heartbroken for the people who have families there who will now suffer because they’re communicating and visiting will be greatly affected. And this is why Trump calls these assholes terrorists. Because of these assholes families are held hostage by not being allowed to have physical contact with each other.

Please feel free to move on. We won’t hold it against you, and we will be fine. It’s a struggle right now. However if you ever thought you’d make a life in. Toronto or Vancouver, it’s silly. You can’t also easily live in New York, Chicago or Los Angeles. Just remember, you came here. We didn’t fail you, but when times are good, don’t feel like you should come back and enjoy that. We want people that want to live here.

I don’t blame Columbia for not allowing those flights to land. He should have had a plan in place before he started having ICE pick ppl up. Trump is an idiot and he has no clue what he’s doing. He’s going to cause a civil war in this country. Ppl need to wise up and shut this shit show down. \n\nTrump assumes he can do whatever he wants to do. This was not a thought out plan. You can’t just expect countries to open their doors to criminals being dropped off after being away for yrs to your doorstep. If they are criminals committed a crime, put their assets in jail in the country where they reside. \n\nHow about all those criminals, 1500 that Trump just let go in the U.S. now he wants to act like he cares and he just did this to police, lawyers, judges and family members of the ppl whom were doing their job, list love ones and fear for their lives. Ppl best wake up and start protesting peacefully b/4 we have a civil war!!!!

Trump is doing this stuff out of spite not to help America but to try and hurt foreign countries trying to force them to do the things he wants. Trumps spite is gonna effect the USA citizens pockets we are gonna pay higher prices on the goods now. Yall his supporters talking about yall want something different in a president OKAY YALL GOT WHAT YOU WANT TRUMP IS GONNA HURT YALL WAY OF LIVING ALSO.

Don’t they realize we the Americans voted for this. This we don’t want them here. However they’re trying to storm through. I don’t understand storming through somewhere you’re unwanted you feel ok living here, and feel you’re not an issue. The entitlement is disgusting. I’m so tired of this.

It’s called desperation folks. Do a little research and find out what these people are trying to get away from! What would you do if you believed that this was the only way to protect your children, your family? I understand that the US doesn’t want criminals coming across our borders and that this wasn’t the way to do it. There are also many normal people. My heart goes out to those that sold everything they had to have to pay the cartels to make it through Mexico, because they won’t let anyone pass through without paying them. I’m sorry for them having to deal with the worst that life could throw at them. I pray that they are able to find another way to live.

Thank you democratic voters ??? How stupid can you get??Democrats should let migrates live with them they wanted the immigrants ???Democrats should support their votes ??

Nice place to visit but I wouldn't want to live there ?

Baraja they could live at your house. You country has been ruined by them, violence and school shootings, shop lifting, \nWake up, your paying for them. If they want to live in America go through the appropriate channels like everybody else has to.

Every single country has the right to accept or deny anyone wanting to enter their country based on their own criteria. Travelling to a country is luxury and living & working there are privileges! I’ve had the privilege to work and live for 2 years in India and I’ve respected every single procedure I had to go trough, I had all my papers, I respected the country and culture, did my job as good as I could, stayed out of trouble and went back home when it was time to do that. Just like India has the right to set its immigration rules as strict as they want in order to protect their sovereignty so does any other country on the face of the planet earth! If you want to be accepted anywhere on planet earth (this is an advice for everyone and anyone from any country) you must EARN IT not demand it!

Why do they want to be where they are not wanted? They will only live in fear of deportation. I think all of Europe and the West need to pull all aide to tbese countries. They dont care about the people whos countries they invade.

Who would want to live in the United States anyway. \nThey can’t even manage their own Finances and have to rely on using coercion in the form of Global Tariffs to pay off the debt which they have accumulated not other countries.

don’t judge too much. I’m not saying this is good for anyone that is living in ????. we already have a very bad housing crisis etc happening . but i definitely understand why they come.i have great empathy for them .. i feel horrible for them. these people aren’t lining up for black Friday deals or Taylor Swift tickets. these human beings are living in poverty, in danger in their own home countries. They want better for their children!! i’d actually question why they didn’t try for better (not actually, i have no right to judge them ..the lack of $ and danger would make most adults question if it’s the right thing to do). \nwe really need to remember...we aren’t special as human beings. we don’t deserve to live here more then they do. Our families just happen to cross the ocean(we weren’t even from the same land, like most of them, they want to cross a boarder that WE created) in the right decade, right century!! \nwe all came here and took from others. when we bought our land, built our homes, etc if you think back really it didn’t belong to them to sell it to us. It was stollen lands from the Native Americans. And we did such horrible things to natives for centuries!! we TOOK TOOK TOOK while nothing but destruction was given to them in return They are the REAL AMERICANS!!! \nAnd we killed them, we destroyed their communities, separated families, brought and spread diseases that killed thousands, kicked them off of their lands to go to areas we knew they couldn’t thrive, then we took their rights to hold & spend their own money, then stole that money that was to help them set up communities crops food and left them for dead !! we stole their babies from their mothers and fathers and we did this as recently as 50 years ago. \nso remember the day the first white man stepped on North American land was the last day we could say this was the land of the free !! \n\nwe have taken taken and taken from the ? fkd the world over.\nRemember..Americans are the reason south America has the dangerous gangs, cartels poverty,corruption,deaths we buy 40% of all drugs made there just one country buys 40%!! but why change things...when our leaders are benefiting hugely from the chaos. who cares about Mexican, South America families Just get them off our doorsteps ..right. ?\njust don’t think we aren’t Next !! ????

As a Brit I know many decent integrated Indians here. But none of them are recent arrivals. Older immigrants were respectful and wanted to be British and adopt British ways. But newer immigrants act as if we owe them something while acting in disrespectful dirty disgusting ways. For example in India I have to use Indian toilets as Indians do. I don’t pretend I don’t understand how to use them, I don’t need instructions on the door and I don’t break the toilet by standing on it, shytting up the walls and all over the floor and leave it there like that’s normal. I’ve worked in offices where this was routine when Indian contractors were brought in. Integrated Indian men seem to take great pride in dressing smartly and smelling good. But it’s really common for Indians to smell REALLY BAD. Poor personal hygiene plus excessive amounts of Indian food (you’re abroad ffs try some different food!) creates a truly vile odour. Some Indian men also think it acceptable to stare at and harass British girls (although to be fair they do not have as bad a reputation as their neighbours) they are also rude and racist to white people especially women. Some Indians in 2025 still seem to think they’re living under the Raj and Britain is ‘oppressing’ them. They’re not and we’re not. The empire brought benefits to India and left peacefully over 70 YEARS ago. We don’t owe you ANYTHING. This victim mentality means India will NEVER be a proper first world country. You can flood the world with sheer numbers but you will never be respected or improve the world in any way, you will only ever leech off the invention of others. I do not mean to disrespect the many decent Indian people I’m just telling the truth. As a culture your presence outside of India is negative because of the way so many Indians act, trying to create India wherever they go. And they have the cheek to say this is ok because they got colonised. WELL SO DID WE! That is the truth.

Good, stop making it sound sad cause canada does NOT want indians in Canada u guys are dropping out living standards to dirty streets to getting people sick by working in fast foods to even taking jobs from future kids

I WAS IN THE VIETNAM AND TODAY I HAVE TO LIVE OUT MY LIFE IN A ROACH INFESTED LICE INFECTED RUNDOWNOLD HOTES IN ONE ROOM AND OUR COUNTRY ARE GIVING THESE BASTARDS ANYTHING THEY WANT WHILE I HAVE TO BEG CHURCHES FOR FOOD TH A DOU WOULDNT EAT.

But !?The problem this society social media, make people jealous about life things, materials things, make people do bad things . For that !? We are destroying the world ? .

But did get the chance pays all the bills too “ because the money was going down quickly , gave one good opportunity to payback he United States money ?. Then thought The Americans never get back after, 911 !? Americans are amazing people, because they’re responsible pay for their own taxes , to support the country . Resume :::::::1= pays the bills to the United States of America, so the people from another country don’t live , to come to America ??. 2= make the money universal : if don’t “ the war will getting worse . The president the United States of America , Trump deserves respect ?? if you don’t . Bad times come true , to kip the American save . So much things to do with this planet ?, but people’s always want burn ? petroleum, for not being productive enough to care about the environment planet ?. We must use more Electric ⚡️ cars , to have better chance future rainy . ?

Why they want to be here in America but when they come here they start representing the country that they don't want to live in, just go back to where you came from ?

I’m American, bet it’s no different in Venezuela than\n Jamaica, Trinidad & Haiti. \nIt was hard had to sleep with my money strapped to me. That was 15 yrs ago. \nIt’s not easy in those country unless u want to become destitute. They live in luxury here on tax payers dime. \nBcuz of my unpleasant experience,I don’t travel anymore. These countries think all Americans are rich!!!

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

I would.not want to live in the states. I have kidney disease and too many unstable people carrying guns. The guns is a huge issue for me

I think the reporter should do proper research. Human development index(education, job, safety, etc.) and the number of overstaying Indians are the major factors why they tend to reject a lot of applicants from India. If India could provide a better living standard, its people would tend to return and not to overstay abroad. But this is not the case. The number of Indians wanting to migrate abroad manifests otherwise. It seems like there is a scarcity of resources in India. No wonder they are shocked that people abroad give tips for a service.

For myself America is the last country in the world that I would want to live in

India's economy has stalled. India also has the rare distinction of being a potential economic powerhouse that won't deliver for its citizens, so its citizens want to upend their lives and move abroad . . . by any means necessary, especially visa fraud - by pretending to be students and working full-time (in violation of student visa requirements), by engaging in sham marriage for sole (and unlawful) immigration benefit, just to name a few outrageous things Indians do. I'm a foreign national of Indian origin, and I support these rejections. Every sovereign country makes it owns decisions as to who is and isn't allowed to enter their country; India is no exception, given its history of refusing visas (many a times, for political reasons). Aap karo to sahi, aap par aayi to mirchi lagi? Oh, and companies abroad get Indian IT talent not because it is good, but because it is cheap (and eventually delivers projects) - big difference. If Indian IT was so dang awesome, you'd think they'd be visionaries in the field, but nope, by and large, Indians consume; they do not invent, but rather implement existing technologies, and have little to offer to the world in terms of scientific and technological breakthroughs at present - with some exceptions.

There's no economy growth here for the millions of ppl the govt are pure in the country c.a not even have a trillion dollar company in the country, America has give trillion dollar company, that's why America so powerful and can do what they want, I'm saying what or these millions of ppl going to lived on live in the country food prices or through the roof right now it causing one person at least $300 a month so my question is where they going to livd under bridge the govt not building apartments building for the average ppl to lived so what going to happen to the average workers in Ontario, a one bedroom apartment is for $2500 plus light no average ppl can afford it. What even make it worse the govt give apartments owners the right to rase rent $60 a month when no employer paying the average workers $120 a month in Ontario that's why ppl or run out the the apartments building because its impossible for dem to keep up to that kind of rent.

Indians are everywhere then later on they demand and wants to rule other country just like canada. If u go canada its like india now and also in other countries they are majority than the people living in that country. Some of them are demanding but when people ask them they dont care this is based on experience of people encounter them.

Remove all illegal aliens. India doesn't want illegal Bangladeshis in India so, same rule should be applied to Indians illegally living in Canada.

It’s not hard to understand. The US cannot and does not take care of its own poor and working class, and through 40 years of neoliberal policy has impoverished enough of its own people to no longer require much foreign labor. If Mexico wants you, stay there. The weather is better and cost of living is lower.

She they are crying because now they can't get in to b in the country to live for free, cause many of them or all of them just want to b here in the USA, to live for free n don't want to work or they can't because they have a whole bunch of children,,,

All countries want a secure border, I can't just walk into Canada or Mexico and live there. I can't do that with any country in the world.

Don’t want be deported don’t enter in a country without permission \nCan’t be that hard to understand you are not entitled to live where you want

The United States, like any sovereign nation, has the undeniable right to control immigration. Simply wanting to live and work in a country, even if you’re willing to go through a legal process, does not automatically entitle you to be welcomed. Each nation has a fundamental responsibility to prioritize the best interests of its citizens, ensuring that immigration policies align with its economic, social, and security needs.\n\nWhen someone enters the U.S. without following the proper legal procedures, they are breaking the law. It is unreasonable to expect a warm welcome when the very first act upon entering the country is a violation of its laws. This disregard for legal processes undermines the integrity of the system and sends a troubling message to those who have worked hard and waited patiently to immigrate the right way.\n\nImmigration laws are not merely bureaucratic hurdles, they exist to uphold order, security, and fairness. To disregard them not only disrespects the system but also those who abide by it. It is not about lacking compassion for those in need; rather, it is about maintaining the principle that laws matter and that the rule of law is foundational to a strong and equitable society.\n\nRespecting a country’s immigration laws is the first step toward earning the trust and acceptance of its citizens. Those who choose to bypass these laws should not expect to be welcomed with open arms, as doing so undermines both the system and the values that the United States, and any country, must protect.

I want to get into the USA but I speak in Spanish. Learn English! \nI don't even live in the US but learn English!

???? no body wants to live in Modi India

Please stop criticizing every ranking, every index. Look at the amount of Indian illegal immigrants almost everywhere. UK reported 1lac of them in 2024. Why do you think any country wants this!! I mean Indians are ok to die and enter other countries illegally, drive cabs, become cleaners, earn below minimum wage than to live in India. Look at the people quitting Indian citizenship every year. Pls Palki, don't make it seem that India is amazing and all is the conspiracy of the West. High networth ppl have left India. Take some ownership. Criticism of your country for good doesn't make you bad. Waise bhi GDP me top bhi ho jaae aur per capita income low rahe toh koi danka nhi baj rha hai desh ka..

There is an Anglo-Saxon conspiracy to destroy India. Anglo-Saxons are thieves. They stole 45 trillion dollars from India in the past. If Indians were smart, they would ask their government to demand reparations from Britain ?, but Indians are not smart. Indians are only good af worshipping gods that do not exist ? If these gods had been useful to our forefathers in the past, the British thieves wouldn't have stolen 45 trillion dollars from India ? It's about time a new eastern bloc was established by Russia, India, and China. We want no truck with Anglo-Saxon thieves. The unscrupulous Anglo-Saxon thieves help corrupt Indian politicians steal India's money. According to Wikipedia, 11 trillion dollars has been stolen from India. That's why many Indians live in slums and under bridges ???? Indian journalists should have the guts to tell the truth about political corruption in India. ?

India is a big country. Indians in America are the highest earning ethnic group for good reason. Their education and employment backs it up. However, the illiterate bunch that Canada imported from Punjab who by trade are farmers, truck drivers, taxi drivers and other labor intensive workers, is the reason why Canadians are pissed. The majority of the “students” barely speak English, which makes you wonder if the IELTS is even legit. Add the fact that cost of living is through the roof, Canada is a shitshow. The blame goes to: a. India b. Canada \n\nIndia is to blame for not having oversight over these so called “consultants” who help with immigration abroad. These agencies work with fake schools to allow so called students to emigrate. \n\nCanada is at fault for not doing their due diligence when issuing visas. Trudeau is a communist and single handedly destroyed Canada with his buddy, Jagmeet, by bringing all those Punjabis into Canada. Those Punjabis belong on a farm or driving a truck in India, not in Canada. Smart Indians want nothing to do with Canada now and this in turn will hurt Canada grow as a nation.

I mean as someone who has worked on the other side of things (as in deporting) the comprehension level of Indians at the immigration counter is appalling they would be asked one thing and all they would answer is but I have hotel bookings and return flight tickets… and this is not a language barrier as I interpret the interviews live…. Like why are you not listening to what is being asked? You guys need to work on your comprehension skills that’s all - Respectfully a fellow Indian.\n\nPS: Pro-tip from an insider every country just wants rock solid assurance that anyone coming in on a temporary visa would go back to their respective countries. Prove that. Simple. ?

The rate at which indians running away from their country is alarming. They just don't want to live in their country and loom all over the world

JUST BECAUSE THE WEST IS USING INDIA TO STOP THE RISE OF BRICS OR FINANCING INDIAN ANTI CHINA HATE AND PROPAGANDA DOES NOT MEAN YOUR WESTERN MASTERS WANT YOU INDIANS IN THEIR NATIONS.. SORRY INDIA THIS IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN INDIA AND CHINA..THE CHINESE KNOW THEY ARE NOT WELCOME IN THE WEST SO THEY DEVELOPED THEIR NATION WHERE WESTERNERS ARE FLOCKING TO CHINA. NO ONE RESPECTS A NATION WHERE 75 % OF THE POPULATION IS LIVING IN HELLISH POVERTY AND OPEN DEFECATION IS THE NORM. STOP DEMANDING THAT OTHER NATIONS TAKE IN YOUR OVER POPULATED POPULATIONS.YOU GUYS ARE CELEBRATING THE WORLDS LARGEST POPULATION, THEN TAKE CARE OF YOUR PEOPLE.

I am a Canadian. Moved to Houston and lived there for eight years....there is nothing pleasant about living in the United States. Sorry but you guys fail even the basic courtesies of life. Was relieved to get back to Canada and get rid of my sidearms! Hospitals and clinics in the U.S. want proof of insurance or they can refuse to even look at you! In Canada no clinic or hospital can turn you away....and we have the Good Samartan law here...meaning you can't be sued for helping someone in an emegency. I actually knew a person in Houston who made her living suing people and companies just because it was easy money....try that here...lmao. To sum it up....living in Canada has the most appeal for me. Now, 2025, I would not even cross the border...too dangerous...trump tards everywhere and who knows when you will be on thier target list.

The population of Indian immigrants has skyrocketed in my native California since 2000. There are many lovely Indian people living here. But many are arrogant Tesla drivers that dont drive safely and act like they own the world. I slammed my breaks on once because a dog ran into the street and I didn’t want to hit it. And the Indian man behind me rear-ended me (which is completely his fault because he was riding too close behind.) He was furious and his response was “you should’ve hit the dog.” He kept saying it was my fault for stopping in the road and wouldn’t give me his insurance. I almost hit him, but instead I called the cops so they’d force him to give me his insurance.

Move to a smaller town to avoid shootings in schools??? Sandy Hook, Newtown, CT. 2020 census just over 27 thousand residents yet 26 shot dead. Just how small of a community would it take to make anyone who isn't naive to feel safe when guns are everywhere in the US? Oh wait, maybe I should check Fox news to see if that was a hoax...\nEDIT - kudos to @xSheravenx for pointing that out first.\nAmerica has to be in the top 10 countries to NOT live in.\nWhat about Americans that don't want to live in the US?\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsNxOFDjlrw

Indians should stay in India. Do not come into the West. You gained Independence for what of you still want to live and pay taxes in the white man's land. ????

Indians are also responsible . Bad visa form filling. \nTraveling abroad to work on tourist visa. Escaping into illegal permanent stay into Europe . But yes, Indian passport should be the top 20 but it isn’t because our house isn’t in place. Basically we’re mostly good people but uncivilised , undisciplined , not all but many. Get India orderly first, clean, green, pollution free, corruption free… and if they still do the same it’s because we want to go there more then they wish to come here. Do something that makes them come here. Top quality cheap tourism, food quality, pollution free, reduce population, increase the female population , give equal rights to woman, judicial system in India sucks, court cases should be fast tracked, law should be simple direst and effective. So much for us to do, money is not the only thing that makes us get quality living. Only the rich get all this stuff…

Really want to leave Canada now. It isn't the country I've lived in all my life. It is going to get much worse now the Alt right are here. Hoping I can leave before Pierre gets in.

Want to increase the chance of getting a visa? increase the standard of living and wages in India, when they notice that you have a deep pocket, they will give you a visa

OMG, so glad I don't live in Canada. Why would they NOT want to become part of the USA?

*Reason is SIMPLE, I live in the west, you WILL NEVER SEE a child working or begging on the street, or a random person asking for help without other people helping, or ....700 million people living in the most ABJECT POVERTY being scammed by politicians and religious leaders !! INDIA HAS 1000 YEARS MORE TO GO IF IT WANTS TO ACHIEVE WEST STANDARDS....IF EVER THAT HAPPENS, Pakistan has a MUCH BETTER CHANCE* ?

People coming from some of the states in India such as Haryana, Gujrat, Punjab should be banned or scrutinized from traveling abroad, their only purpose to travel is to put refugee in other country and stay in other country illegally. There are many people who don't have proper documentation and also have fake documents, these people affects other genuine people who want to travel. Also the young people who just studied their intermediate or 12th class should also be banned from travel from the above mentioned states to travel abroad for studies. Moreover, People from these states don't know their manners in other country and don't know how to live or stay as per the culture of other country and fail to follow the basic manners and rules. I hate to say it but this is the truth.
