But i thought there wasn't a border crisis.

I landed as PR in Canada and I’m Canadian Citizen now….. being IT professional it wasn’t that difficult to settle however what you mentioned for students is somewhat true! There is an another side of it as well that Student visa was somewhat abused as an entryway to canada when skilled PR was getting stringent. \nImmigration happened at a rapid speed however infra for healthcare is same thus the wait tine has increased… not enough Doctors……also not enough job opportunities for those students, Inflation and high interest rates are adversely affecting new Immigrants.

@AbhiandNiyu : I’m a Canadian citizen of Indian descent. I agree with the issues you have highlighted but I disagree with the narrative you have presented. Here are my reasons why - \n\n1. Canada has always been a peaceful, prosperous, progressive and a good governance oriented nation. In the recent decade, too much of woke, radical left wing ideology has penetrated into policy and public institutions that have led to Canada’s current day crisis. \n\n2. This country has always welcomed talented immigrants who are willing to integrate with the Canadian society, embrace its values, traditions and culture. However, in the last 10 years, too many refugees and reckless mass immigration has put an incredible pressure on the economy, infrastructure and social cohesion. \n\n3. The political leadership has allowed reckless mass immigration without caring to boost the economy/infrastructure to handle the volume and hence the sorry state of affairs. \n\n4. Too many immigration consultants of Indian origin engage in outright VISA frauds (yes, this is unfortunately true) leading to ppl coming in as a tourist and then seeking asylum or converting their visa into a student visa (55 year olds from Punjab, Haryana, Gujarat coming here as students).\n\n5. A significant chunk of people coming from India (esp. Punjab, Haryana, Gujarat) seeking a permanent residency in Canada are using student visas as a back door to claim eligibility for PR/citizenship. This is downright abusive and was never intended to be used like this. This has fueled a fake college diploma industry into Canada where “2-room” colleges have sprung up along the highways giving out fake diplomas and certifications for easy cash. Thus, the students, the immigration consultants and the fake diploma issuing colleges are all getting benefited from this scam. The internet is filled with such sting operations by Canadian officials exposing Indian students/immigration consultants. Do check them out. \n\n6. Unlike the past, the recent batch of immigrants in the last 3 years or so, make no effort at all to integrate into Canadian society and abuse the system, create law and order problem, drive recklessly, talk loudly in public spaces, litter everywhere, cross railway tracks like they do in India, steal liquor from stores, shamelessly collect food from food banks (as a way to save on groceries) that are meant for the elderly, disabled or those that are in utter poverty. It wasn’t like this ever before. In cities like Mississauga, Brampton and Surrey, the Khalistan movement + gangs involved in theft, drugs and human trafficking are from Punjab/Haryana and they have mushroomed here like crazy. A good 30-40% criminals in prison or on bail in these cities are of India ethnicity. \n\nIt is behaviours like these by Indians in the recent few years that has thoroughly infuriated native Canadians and now they hate the rest of us that have lived here peacefully and have been good citizens. There is a very serious, very real anti-immigrant (anti-Indian too) sentiment building up here. \n\n7. Lastly, the student protests that you have highlighted here is absolutely ridiculous! These students from India came to Canada under a student visa knowing fully well that they are supposed to go back after the completion of their studies, and now they are DEMANDING that they be issued extensions in work permits and be considered for PR. This is insane! This is because they never intended to return to India in the first place and were abusing the system as a back door entry. They are threatening to go on hunger strikes and what not. Legally, on a student visa, they are NOT allowed to participate in any sort of activism. \n\nNOBODY that comes to our country on a temporary visa (student, tourist etc.) has the right to dictate terms to us and demand that we change our immigration policies based on their preferences. No, that will not happen. \n\nCanada, like every country, has the sole right and privilege to decide who gets to become a permanent resident or a citizen based on our national priorities and strategic interests. I see nothing wrong in this principle.\n\nThanks for the video and I hope you will consider the other side of this argument as well. Canada alone is NOT at fault here. Immigrants and temporary visitors from India have some soul searching to do as well.

I’m learning they lie and cheat or scam. Wasn’t like this before but now you can not trust them.

There is nothing wrong with politicians being boring. One of the main pros for me is your free healthcare. I got a 5K hospital bill for 2 ER visits and the second one wasn't needed.

As a punjabi Canadian who's parents came here over 50 years ago. Watching international students abuse things like food banks makes my blood boil beyond belief. One of the things I've always loved most about being Canadian is our reputation for being kind, caring, polite and helpful.\n\nIndia has a very different mindset, it's much more cutthroat and people are taught to find and abuse any and every advantage they can. When I was younger it was always really fun watching new families come here because the difference in mindset was so refreshing to them and it wasn't uncommon for them to want to very enthusiastically be a part of it.\n\nNow I see families come from India and they seem almost offended by the idea of wanting to contribute or help improve the communities and areas they live in. In the past they could see for themselves that mindset made things better for everyone, but because there's so much immigration now, they tend to move into areas where other new immigrants are also living and getting exploited by other slightly less recent immigrants. That cutthroat mentality is all they see and feel, everyone is looking to get something from them and give nothing back. So they do the same, and attempts to show them the things I love most about Canadians is perceived as just another hustle trying to take advantage of them.\n\nNobody is happy with this, nobody wins.

Like he said the weight is the problem the weight is the occupation they need to get back to NY and where ever they came to occupy land that wasn't there's 76 years. ago

Quebec being number one is because it is subsidized by western Canada. If the Canadian government wasn’t so concerned about loosening the liberal vote and Quebec separating from Canada Quebec would probably rate about number 4. As a result the federal government pours more money into Quebec than all of western Canada. So if you love free money from the rest of Canadians Quebec being the most subsidized then Quebec would be Number 1.

I applied for Canadian visitor visa since 70 days ago as I have all the conditions that you must have it if you want to get visa without obstacles for rejection as an official documents with financial status including bank account with title deeds for properties and long history of travel including Schengen area and UK but unfortunately today I was disappointed when I received an email from Canadian immigration visa office that I wasn't got a visa but instead I rejected and the causes first they are not sure that I will return back to my country so what else should I provided to believe me and how do they know that those who already got visa they will return back ? Do they have a magician stick ? The second reason that I am single and I don't have strong family tie in my country , the question is : are you sure that one have a family when he gets visa they don't applied for family gathering later on ? Is it normal that I put this obstacle as you should change your social affairs and get married in order to satisfy those responsible of the office and what you do after 2 years when you with USA and Mexico organize the football world cup what's the decision about giving visa to those single or not .......??????

I’m surprised this wasn’t removed. Those of us who speak up about this have been censored online since about 2017.

the Canada they dreamed about 20 years ago is not the Canada today. Bad policies, tax hungry government trying to suck every penny they can anyway possible. angry Canadians blame the migrants when the problem actually points towards the system. This never would have happened if our system wasn't broken.

I love watching these videos as a Canadian. Because Canadians are fleeing the country for mostly the same reasons. But the funny aspect is that immigrants say that they can't find work because their immigrants but Canadians also can't find work because most companies prefer immigrants, and if the government wasn't letting in so many people then the housing crisis wouldn't be as bad. So problems 2, 3, 4 and 5 are largely caused by immigrants.

Wasn't that the bullet proof briefcase shield he was carrying???

Nothing Happens ,Nothing ever happened ,Even while it was happening, it wasn't happening.

What a lummox ? wasn't it your Lord Balfour that started this problem???

Ah, they thought he was an assassin. Ah shucks, he wasn't an assassin ?

My wife and I moved to Canada about a decade ago from post-Soviet states, where we both grew up with not much more than our smarts and a strong work ethic. When we arrived, adapting/integrating Canadian values, especially work ethics, was a big deal for us. Those first few years were tough, we really had to hustle to improve our lives. Now, a decade later, we're both in pretty solid tech and science jobs. Our child had the incredible privilege of being born in Canada, and that fills me with immense joy.\n\nIt wasn't just our own grit that got us where we are now; we owe a lot to the incredibly welcoming Canadians we met along the way. I'm thankful every day for the awesome, kind-hearted folks we've met. Canadians are truly some of the best people around, and despite lots and lots of issues, Canada is one of the greatest countries in the world. I know this because I've lived and worked across many countries on many continents . We, Canadians, need to keep working to make it even better. I'm proud to be a Canadian immigrant. God bless my fellow Canadians.

“British were told for centuries to go back to their own country by those they colonised”. No they wasn’t, they had their hand out asking to be higher up in the improved systems the British elites created. Also, the colonial actions of historic British elites and governments have nothing to do with the views of working class brits today. They did not represent nor include the working classes in their decision making. Universal suffrage for working class men only came in 1919 so don’t peddle this old trope that the British were everywhere (and now it’s ironic that they tell others to get out of their country) when it was an elite minority which the majority could not make decisions about. The working class brits of today have a right to hold the view that we should stop immigration. The elites who are verifiably hereditary beneficiaries of colonialism do not and your trope actually stands up when it comes to them.

so it wasn't muslims and black people , ik it , those indian youtuber were using racism to shut our eyes from seeing them ?doesn't sound good when you are at the receiving end does it

I'm a Canadian from one of the top 3 cities, and I could tell you this video is very accurate. Many Indians here, as well as many of them in trucking and taking over things such as pizza hut KFC dominoes. When I was younger there wasn't as many.

Seems like you haven't gotten the memo. Canada is a multicultural nation, and Indians are part of that beautiful mosaic. Maybe you should focus on building bridges instead of walls, eh? After all, the land wasn't exactly 'up for grabs' when the Europeans arrived Perhaps you should ask the Indigenous people whose land we both reside on about who the real 'migrants' are

Gave the Guy the thumbs ? up 4 his Answer.. well Spoken. \n\nHowever the problem he has is this . The Palestinians have Hamas & as long as these Scum Bags exist there will never ever be piece in the Region in Gaza . \n\nCan't have another Disaster like The 7th of October again . \n\nI would like 2 hear this Guys thoughts on Hamas . The Question wasn't asked \nMmmmmmm Why ?

My sister's husband was sent to the USA for his job. His company wanted him to work down there for a while. He got a 5 year work VISA. They paid taxes in the US, and it didn't give them the right to stay forever. They paid income tax and property taxes. She wasn't allowed to get a job so she renovated the home they bought, and made a profit when they sold it. So after his 5 year Visa was over, they moved back home up here. Just because people contribute and pay taxes while they hold a work Visa, doesn't give them the right to stay once that Visa has expired. MY SISTER AND HER HUSBAND HAD TO LEAVE THE USA AFTER HIS 5 YEAR WORK VISA EXPIRED. LAWS MATTER!! OUR CANADIAN RULES MUST BE ENFORCED TOO!!!!

It wasn't like this 8 years ago and there's so many people of a certain demographic that outnumbers the others. Now, it's really hard to find a part-time job as student and our healthcare system is plummeting as well. Why we keep accepting them when we can't even afford to help our own citizens? This current government needs to step-down now; we don't speak for them. The fact that these people are able to rally in our country is absurd and they don't even have the rights in our country. This shows how weak the Canadian law is. They don't respect us and they mock our system.

Wasn't india just caught blackmailing candian mp's

The guy who wants to get into policing can barely speak English! What use have we for people that can't speak our national languages? Someone wasn't thinking this through when they were drafting this policy.

Really surprised smell wasn't a more prominent topic in this video. ???

Wasn't there land in the first place

Yeah,he have right to talk about any topic. But,his behaviour wasn’t right

These guys can’t reproduce, so low population index , so they cry when they have good economy based on the hard work of immigrants and then cry why are they here.. by the way isn’t Canada country made by immigrants? Wasn’t it earlier inhabited by Indians tribes.. before they encroached

Glad I wasn't there, would be in jail right now

It wasn’t emigration was parliament and the real state cartel who put Canada for sale creating a gentrification and destroy canadas culture !

OK, I just watched the same video but about Ireland. I get it. There's a housing crisis, I guess, everywhere? I know there's one in the US, even in formerly unpopular areas like New England. Can someone explain this to me like I'm a small child or a golden retriever? AFAIK, there wasn't a population boom in the last 50 years. There WAS for the baby boom. So, is the issue that the boomers own too much and haven't died fast enough? Did every country have a baby boom? I don't think so. I really want to understand this. TIA.

I came here for the anti-British comments written in the greatest language of all, English. And wasn't dissapointed.??????? The irony.

I support religious freedom but tbh this is not India. Here in America you are welcome to practice your religion but we don’t open carry knives here so people get reasonably uncomfortable when they see someone carrying a knife around openly. The police officer wasn’t targeting a religious group, he was simply managing what some people would see as a concern or a threat even.

1:21 canada wasn't under British in 1890s it wasn't a colony in the firstplace and 2nd thing is it got independence in 1867 \n\nSo grow up now u may say not full independence far more independent than India and it isn't described by both of them Britishers and Canadians as colonisation

If it wasn't for the Indians, Brampton would probably have been much worse off, looks like to me. The Indians have saved it. Should be more grateful to them, instead of blaming them for rising poverty and crime. That is some absurd false logic.

Canada isnt Canada anymore.\nTrudeau and the liberal mafia has tried to turn everyone against each other, so we only see negative rather than looking for the common ground.\nHe said he wanted to get rid of the Canada we knew, he wasn’t lying about that at least

Reality is that white people don't make kids anymore and if it wasn't for immigration the sociale system would collapse. Would be interesting to see what people would say if government say we'll put and end to immigration and you'll loose half of your pension and salary, because that's what will happen. You get a grown asssss man for whom you didn't have to pay for education or infrastructure and on top of that you made him pay to come here, when gets a job he paies at least 1/3 of salary in taxes + has to support and swallow discrimination because his name isn't little Johnny

What i don't understand is......\nI would never be in a country that i wasn't welcome and its clear to see the natives are fed up.....never mind what atrocities ottoman empire did, thats past era....so dont bother talking about past.

That guy driving that bus wasn’t even a citizen of Canada ?

this wasn't done out of malice the owner of the company who hired him should bear some responsibility

I wonder how many appeals would happen if the public, innocent of any wrongdoing, wasn 't funding this killer and his ever ready lawyers expert at emptying our pockets?

That wasn't an accident. He had no intention of stopping unless he was asleep

I’m assuming he wasn’t the result of an East Indian driving school, where someone else took and passed all the tests for him? If you’re wondering why you’re now forced to undergo a retina scan when getting your license, it’s because of that and the countless accidents that occurred as a result.

He knowingly broke Canada's laws when he got behind the wheel of a semi type that he wasn't licenced for. He did this while not being a citizen. What would he do if we let him stay and he became a citizen?! He disregarded Canada's laws from the start and this needs to be factored in.\n\nAs well, I have little compassion for how his family might be ripped apart because he had no compassion for how many families he may tear apart by getting behind the wheel of a semi he wasn't licenced for, and in the end, he tore apart MANY families.\n\nI have compassion for him as a human being, but he should not remain in Canada.

I feel for the driver. Pushed to do work he wasn’t properly trained for by his employer. Mr Sidhu doesn’t need to be deported. He has proven himself after since the tragity.

I felt for that guy jc he’s been punished enough there’s no “order” (fkn nonsense) that can ever punish him more than what he already experienced and feels for those kids the courts aren’t proving anything by deporting him they’re only coming across as scared and incompetent. And BTW why is he getting hammered for everything when he wasn’t the only one involved in that the business also took part cutting corners so typical it put everyone’s lives at risk.

It wasn’t a slap. He answered it logically and non violently.
