They're going to make groceries cheaper by enacting tariffs and deporting everyone that harvests our crops for low wages - and processes our meats -- those in favor of that should go do those jobs. IF politicians really cared about illegal immigration they'd aggressively investigate and prosecute those that hire them ... IF they didn't know the economy needs that work force ... and IF they didn't love cheap labor more than their children ...

Where are Joe Biden and Kamala Harris? Why don’t they come to see all this? Biden and Kamala wide open the border to invite hundreds of millions of illegal immigrants to invade our country. Using our own tax payers money to fund the illegal immigrants. Why Kamala blames on elected President Trump for the border crisis????? This make me mad?????. These people should gather like that in their own country to put test with their corrupted government not in our southern borders. Biden, Harris, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer need to be arrested for treason.

Develop your shit country, instead of fighting on religion. So no one has to leave. Why should gov make legal immigration easy.

Immigrants living there for 50 years or more can leave to make space for new Immigrants

Do you all hear yourselves….?? Some of the most racist comments I’ve heard…..!!\n\nThis is basically saying that because it is brown people moving into Canada ( Brampton, BC, TO) doesn’t matter, there’s a problem with immigrants. What would the comments be if Brampton had an influx of Britt’s, or Germans, or Portuguese….Etc….??\n\nSaying, “this is not the Canada I knew”…. Well, “Canada is a multicultural country” \nThis means that all cultures from every part of the world decide to enter Canada and make it their home. Just like my parents did in the 60’s from Portugal. Why is it okay to have people immigrate here in the 60’’s from Italy, Portugal, Greece Etc…. And people coming in now from countries that are of colour, there is a massive backlash…. Canada has one of the lowest populations. Why not have some hard working people live here and contribute to the economy from India, Afghanistan, Nigeria, Kenya, Lebanon, Iraq Etc….

Canadian (second gen indian immigrant) here, your video is great! Not racist or hateful at all towards Indians, but rather critiquing the system which is how these topics should always be addressed. Don't hate the player, hate the game LOL but no seriously, Canada needs to tighten up the immigration requirements and bring in skilled WORKERS. exploiting international students is far too common, and these private post-secondary institutions are also all to blame... kids straight out of highschool should not be coming here, expecting to PR this is nuts, and the Rupinderpaul Singh controversy makes me so embarrassed to be Indian. The students and that guy truly do not represent the rest of us LOL

No one noticed migration has slowed down for the past year, because no one’s life is affected by immigrants. \nImmigrants have been part of more culture and economic development, since most of us have been born. \n\nIt has only been a problem, because the radical right wing has been making it a problem. \nThey always need something to bitch about.

What a bunch of bull shit...tariffs and a lot of them. Shut down your stinken boarder Mexico. Pull your heads out so you can see what is happening. We don't want your drugs We don't want your illegal immigrants from all over the freaking world. Shut your borders and deal with your cartel drug lords. Bring on the tariffs We don't care about Mexican products. Whatever we can't get America will make.

You are mostly talking about the big cities. I will bet that things haven't changed that much is your small town in Saskatchewan. Too many people are gravitating to the large cities. The wealth of our nation was built with our farms, mines, forests, etc. Trades people and farmers built this country. Too many people want to sit on their ass in front of a computer instead of getting busy. For those immigrants who can't make a living in Canada, it is time to go home. Some who have the skills and attitude will do well. Other won't. We need successful people, not another user of the food banks. The author of this video, seems to have had enough money to travel to 50 countries! How many countries allow you to earn enough to have kind of opportunity. Why don't you stay on the farm?

Mexican President is 100% right. All these years thanks to cooperation we could nearly solve the illegal immigration problem bring it down to few millions each year . If we put tariff on Mexican goods that might make Mexico very angry and disrupt the sending immigrants.

She also said that the thousands of immigrants heading this way will no longer meet at the border of USA. Trump is already making a change

It's not your fault. It's Trudeau. I am all for immigration, it is what makes Canada, Canada... but the amount of people Trudeau let in was insane.. We had massive issues prior.

Mexico should let all immigrants enter the USA, from Patagónia until it's southern neighbors.. . It's not a Mexican problem, but a United States one...Let them deal with it. Let's make Mexico great again. Mexico first... ?

This is one of the most delusional news channels I have ever seen, but the worst part is the facts that viewers believe what they say. Inflation occurs when the federal government places to much money in circulation. The Biden administration cut the key stone pipeline, subsequently increasing the cost of oil and gas, while negating the billions being brought in via oil exports. Gave a sizable portion of the stretegic oil reserve to non stretegic countries, increased Government spending on bad programs, sent several hundred billion to fund non stretegic foreign wars and hundreds of billions on housing, medical care and debit cards for illegal immigrants, while doing nothing for Maui, North Carolina and Florida or the millions of homeless and diplaced Americans and American veteran.\nAs for this Mexico issue. The people have spoken. Border counties filled with legal immigrants but flooded with violent illegals voted for Donald Trump because they are living the nightmare created by Mexico and the Biden administration, that these media and political hacks theorize about. The Mexican government has failed its people by allowing the Cartels to fill their pockets with billions every year. \nMexico is also working with China to funnel Chinese goods through Mexico in an attempt to bypass tariffs and flood the American economy with cheap Chinese goods. Don't let this Mexican president fool you, they are afraid of Trump holding them accountable for facilitating this mass invasion on the border. She made this statement publicly as a shakedown tactic instead of talking directly to President Trump. Her actions should tell you all that you need to know about these political puppets. In conclusion, Tariffs are affective because these greedy American and Foreign corporations use cheap labor to make cheap goods that they then sell for major profit. Tariffs tend to make these companies movie to America create American Jobs and pay higher American salaries which are a significant savings over tariffs. The companies lose considerable profits but they gain market share because they understand that when you raise the price of goods you only make the American alternative more appealing.

It would be best if the USA would just invade Mexico and make it the 51st state - the Mexican people would all be way better off, the corrupt officials and cartels would all be 6ft under and the immigrant waves would stop! Who would care, who would stop it. no one!

We don’t need Mexico we just use them cause there cheap. America can build and grow whatever they want. She should shut up and solve her own country’s crisis. There’s a reason her own people want to run to America. But the boot they will get if coming here illegally is their agenda. One day our army will probably have to swing in there for a solid week and end there crisis that they can’t handle themselves. & all these crybaby Americans over Kamala need to stfu and listen to the real adults. America will be America again. “Oh but we’re all immigrants” well I’m not I was born here. That happened years and years ago. You have better luck crying a river to a wall. Let’s go America let’s bring the real America back and make it strong again. F$$$ the haters and crybabies

And all the agents would lose their jobs! What keeps them employed is illegal immigration. ?‍♂️ Once upon a time, when I was working in Nairobi, Kenya ??, I had a friend who was hired to clean up a large office compound. He constantly urged his boss to cut down a tree that was shedding too many leaves ? and making the compound messy. Eventually, the boss agreed and had the tree removed ?. A few months later, my friend lost his job because the compound was now spotless and didn’t need regular cleaning. The moral of the story? Be careful what you wish for! ? If they build the wall and successfully curb illegal immigration, many border security agents could lose their jobs, and their families would suffer ?‍?‍?‍?. Sometimes, what seems like an ‘evil’ situation can bring blessings to others. For example, while death is sad and brings grief ?, the lack of it would mean no work for morgues, grave diggers, coffin makers, or florists ⚰️?. I mean no harm with my comment, and I personally dislike illegal immigration ?, but it’s worth reflecting on how interconnected everything is ?.

Trump acts like we make SOOOOO much here in the US that we can function alone. FALSE! We make damn near NOTHING here. We rely too heavily on other countries in every aspect of our lives; food, clothing/footwear, shelter/building construction material, automotive even down to hygiene products . These countries think he is a fool! Hike up tariffs for them and they will just take it out on us. Tariff is NOT going to control immigration. NO 1 president has ever 100% combated immigration. YES we need a tough stance on immigration & it will result in some casualties, let's be honest. However the way he is talking, he will screw his own people. I can't believe nobody on this team explains this to him.

I have a crazy idea. How about making it affordable for people already living in Canada to have a family rather than shipping in immigrants from other Countries?

Trump is the son of an immigrant and his first and current wife are both immigrants.\n\nIf people actually hated him for the right and true reasons instead of making stuff up and causing people to not believe when actual valid reasons to hate him are stated, he wouldn't have won twice.\n\nBlanketly denigrate the people that support him (I disagree even though I wouldn't vote for him) as moronic, but it's almost always the people making baseless statements about him that show their lack of awareness and education on who exactly Trump is and what he stands for.\n\nObama's father was African and his wife is African American. \nCalling Trump against LEGAL immigration is as ridiculous as calling Obama anti-Black.

I have ethnic background from Hong Kong and have been living in Canada for almost 40 years. I love Canada and am proud of this beautiful country. However, I think part of the immigration problem we have is the ongoing issue of allowing dual citizenship of everyone who have become a Canadian citizen. I have personally known lots of HK immigrants who would return to their own countries to work as soon as they have got their Canadian passports. Normally one of the parents would stay with their children here for free schooling, medical care and child tax benefits. Their children will follow their parents to go back to HK after they graduated from universities in order to avoid the higher income tax . Unfortunately, those parents will come back to retire in Canada so that they can get free health care benefits and OAS once they have fulfilled the residency requirement of 10 years. Canada do need more skilled and educated immigrants to make our country more prosperous but not those who try to take advantage of our lenient immigration policies. I think we should take back the passports of those who have left Canada for more than 2 years or those who have evaded taxes so that we do not continue to support those never contributed to our country. PS, I mentioned about HK only because of my origin and I believe the same problem would be caused by immigrants from other countries too.

Madam,\nNot 7,000 their are 700,000 international indians student should be deported on the spot,\nMost of them came on fake documents fake indian College Universities degrees diplomas certificates because in India they can buy easily all these degrees certificate diplomas with with money they offer huge bribes..\nThese international indian students can't even speak english can't even write english and they get immigration clearance with fake english language test from Embasies...\nBecause they to pass mandatory English test before they give them Visa \nAnd again they pay the bribes and they get fake english language test\nIn India everything possible if you have lots a money\nThese international indian students misuse previlages what Canadian Goverments offer to get study in Canada they really make fool all these countries when they been gone for studies.

Any country will deport them. They can take legal action and make police report against the immigration agents/the recruitment agencies.

East Indians, quickly becoming the most detested immigrants. Scam, scamers, and scamee. From COVID benefits scaming to mass murdering of more than half of a hockey team, to trafficking drugs, liscense fraud, the list of negative behaviors from this group are immeasurable. And, we haven't mentioned the fact they HATE Canadian culture and are hell-bent on making this country, western India.

Canadian whites also have their homes in Europe. If they don't like Canada, they are free to go back. Indian or any other ethnicity has not invaded the country. It's their laziness and unproductive life styles that have forced their government to bring immigrants to the country to do some work and run the country. Instead of looking at the real problem and analyzing it, just make videos for personal gain. When Europeans invaded India, they too brought their culture in India, and that's the reason you see, Indians in India wearing trousers and shirts and not Dhoti. Whatever whites do is right, and if others do the same it's wrong. Please get out of this mentality, the world order is changing.

Only 7000 to be deported? Almost 3 million illegal Indians flocked into Canada just in 2023 way to go Liberals! The only solution to the Indian invasion to Canada is to make sure neither the Liberals nor their puppet the NDP get any seats in the coming elections. The Liberals are just ploughing the Canadians to be re-elected then bring another 10 million illegal Indians in 2025 not to mention the 10 Million illegal Indians Trump is going to dump to Canada. In 2025 there will be 35 million Indians in Canada both legal and illegal versus 20 million non- Indian Canadians wow this is Indian-zation not immigration. I guess all churches and other worship places will be demolished in favor of temples and no more beef will be served nor PEPESI or Coke to be consumed only cow pee is available if you are thirsty more over there will be a huge shortage of diapers for new born babies as they will all be covering some Indian heads.

this is how canada makes money via fake tourism in the name of immigration

My question is how are visa issued even without proper background check. Should not they check the authenticity of the application. I understand most of the indians from some part of the country want to migrate so desperately thats also wrong. Please make sure you keep on including background check in future immigration visa atleast. But I am also happy to that they are getting deported because karma is a bitch.

If you are a international student you come for Quality education and take that quality back to your country to help better it! Period you don’t come here with the intention for migration or PR! You can apply for legal immigration after you graduate and after a year or more apply! Your countries issue and political stuff are your countries problems don’t bring them here! It’s your responsiblity to do your best to help make it it better! Don’t take advantage of our system illegal migration is a crime and you get punished for it!

The government never promises for permanent residency it’s your so called consultants . Don’t blame govt for tough rules you guys know how you actually came here - just taking advantage of Canadian immigration system fake students getting admission in school colleges ( Don’t know English but in colleges) fake visitors ( fake lmia from their relatives ) fake asylums . So what do you expect govt give PR to everyone. Consultants thinks they are wiser and make govt fool ??

I’m glad… I’m from India… ok now there’s already so many scammers living inside Canada with PR and citizenship what about them…. My neighbour went to Canada in PR registering fake company… n getting fake experience certificates… there r so many Indian ppl who r loyal n trustworthy but u close doors for them… through company ppl come there with no efforts they claim 50 points n get score over 500… what about the students who really worked hard n been loyal n honest…. Ur immigration doesn’t make sense at all….

Gross! Since Donald Trump has become the president elect, I have seen so many Hispanic Americans that were once themselves “illegal immigrants” make the statement that they would have no issues with family members and friends who are currently illegal, be deported?! The hypocrisy and complete disregard for others that are literally in the same position that they once were, is almost unimaginable! I was born and raised in this country, as were my parents, their parents, and their parents parents however, I have compassion for those people that have been discarded by their own families and friends for reasons I don’t fully comprehend ??‍♀️

First of all:\nEducate yourself TLDR about the difference between illegal immigration (which is already a criminal act and if in large enough numbers an invasion) and legal immigration. They are NOT the same. Its like confusing a paying customer at the store (legal) with a shoplifter (illegal immigration).\n\nIf CA and NYC, then that's easy, send all of those people to those 2 states and see how long these states will last.\nSecond, its easy to make a country take back its own people, since you have the largest military available. Nothing a few threats of bombs couldnt fix.\n\nIts all super easy, you just have to want it.

Should make them work off the debt in labour camps to pay for the jet charter!! That will put a stop to the immigration problem.

Immigration is a propaganda based, old American slavery. If this country, that much prosperity, Why can not the residents, having more children's. People can not affordable children. They always projected number of jobs, available. The foolish, promises of fools paradise to make more arctic land filling with human beings. No more human trafficking. Why did , I scrapped PR from Canada . Because of real Hell in the world. Our India well superior than Canada.

Pretty happy with this news. Local people should learn the hard way that immigrants are not the reason for their issues. It's their government. \nContinue hating the immigrants and no one will choose Canada. Don't worry; immigrants leaving are more prosperous than you think and have more options. They aren't making 16$ an hour like the majority of the people in the comments section.\n\nInterestingly, some third or fourth-generation immigrants think it's only their country. People who came in the last decade don't deserve to be in Canada. The country only belongs to native people. Everyone else is an immigrant. There are a bunch of hypocrites and racists in the comment sections.

Please dont make some program so we can retain immigrants nobody wants in this country.

Thank God!!!!! As A 10 generations Canadian we are done with these immigrants making their money in Canada then returning to their 3rd world countries as millionaires with our money!!!! That’s a fact & Truth !!! Ask any Bank teller who transfers their Canadian money monthly to India, China, Pakistan, Turkey, Philippines, !!!!!!

Post-secondary institutions are underfunded in Canada. The tuition they charge domestic students can’t offset their operating costs, so they have relied on international students, whose tuition they can make much higher, in order to cover the shortfall. Note that this is also exploitative of international students; don’t blame them, the system is not their fault. The government should provide more funding to post-secondary institutions if they want high quality and affordable education accessible to all Canadians. Cutting visas won’t change that, nor will scapegoating immigrants.

as a young canadian i got denied from alot of the schools i wanted to go to, i figured it was probably because my grades weren't perfect, but the reason i want to go is to improve! and yet when i visit the school its almost entirely immigrants who pay 4 times as much, not 100% sure thats the reason but i cant help but make that comparison

I just see many illegal immigrants wanting to live in the US but not be part of it like learning the language and american customs. That makes me feel that my sympathy is being taken advantage of.

Bit misleading to suggest that Trump led Republicans in shooting down that bill like it was some form of sabotage. The democrats completely undid Trump's boarder policies prior to coming up with a plan, and the tried to pass that garbage bill after the fact.\n\nJust because the Democrats put forward a bill on immigration doesn't make it a good package that the opposition is obligated to back. They should have left his laws in place until they had something better and less partisan. Instead they brought on the collapse of our entire immigration system for several years. Also shame on the republicans for being self-serving RINOs without independent thought. Just following the flow of power for their own sake. Sucking up to the Democrats one day, and Trump the next.

I have cousins who are illegal immigrants, I’ve been trying to sponsor my wife to come here legally and it has been the most dreadful process I’ve ever been through. Meanwhile these guys are here already receiving food stamps and housing. I make 220k a year. I pay my fair share in taxes and don’t need any government assistance. I’m definitely for returning illegals that are jamming the immigration system.

Democrats use weaponized empathy and lack basic common sense. They would rather have the country be overrunned by millions of illegal immigrants than be called racist. Make it make sense.

It's wild to me that anyone thinks that any amount of illegals immigration is ok, if one stranger jumps my fence it's a problem but if 40000 or more a month show up no one cares? The entire thing makes no sense, who are they what diseases do they have? Are they dangerous until they can legally show up with all that and ask permission they should just be dumped on the other side of the border and banned for life for committing the crime of trespassing

If TLDR wants to keep its prestige intact they gonna have to make a public note explaining the conflated legal vs illegal immigration terms. Quite misleading - unless you’re already well informed - which defies the purpose of an impartial and well intended journalism, doesn’t it?

It feels so foolish to keep trying bandaid solutions that harm the US labor pool. There's a couple of things I keep thinking about in regards to this. \n\n1. Most developed countries on earth are in the midst of or are preparing to deal with population crisis and depopulation. Strong immigration to the US stems this issue and is actually a huge advantage to the power and continuing visibility of the USA.\n\n2. Deportation and border control strike at the effect of immigration and leave the cause unharmed. People come to the USA because there's opportunities here, so why not make opportunities abroad?\n\nIf the USA were to remove benefits of dealing with china while offering massive incentives for moving manufacturing away from china directly to Latin America, not only would we be countering our Chinese dependency but we would also provide jobs at home and stem immigration. Not only that, but the businesses would be American and be controlled by Americans - a huge incentive to stay friendly to the USA.\n\nI don't know, just seems like our current policy and especially what Trump is suggesting are counter productive and stuck in a bygone way of thinking.

ILLEGAL immigration, stop just saying immigration to make it look better for your headline.

What causes immigrants like her to become ladder-pullers? White proximity. She believes that kissing up to white supremacists somehow makes her better than other immigrants. And now that she thinks she's better, she wants to pull the ladder of opportunity because she wants others to think she did it all on her own, based on her own strength, intelligence and ingenuity. But in reality, she'd still be feeding chickens on the ranch if tge ladder had been pulled on her. Her anchor babies are probably worse.

Trump has no immigration policy or plan; he will try to make one while stealing from the government
