Who would have thought that a secular country wouldn't be a good choice for highly religious people?Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

no I wouldn’t even visit with orange Cheeto as president. Moving there will never happen as I can’t even move out of my province which is Ontario because my 1300 x4 times a year medication is only covered in Ontario and definitely my whole family would be bankrupt living their plus I hate guns and the racism/ sexism in the states is way worse then in Canada.

Idk i think you need to realize that we also have our bias in addition to you having yours. Meaning, to most of us , excepting the most left leaning socially progressive pockets and contexts , which even then wouldn’t be viewed that way to us just acceptable lol ?\n\nOur baseline/political middle in Canada is A LOT more left leaning than the baseline normal/political middle in the states. So while people tend to equate your democrats to our liberals or our NDP , and equate your republicans to our conservatives. It’s just not accurate. If you throw our span of parties and American span of parties on the SAME spectrum /polarity line. You might be surprised to realize how shifted left our systems range politically is from the American one. \n\nThis hugely impacts the average normal expectation , what we clutch our pearls at hearing coming out of the mouths of the general public , and our range of what we expect to not hear or see ranted about unless they’re to our view , extremely right leaning politically /social values. \n\nFor us this means that actually genuinely , a lot of America does get experiences by us as bat shit crazy racist homophobic immigrant intolerant culturally and religiously ignorant , and somewhat backwards in larger or smaller amounts ? I know that’s not fun to hear but. Being the most diverse country based so much on immigration means. What is normal and known /familiar and normal so we aren’t ignorant to , is completely different. \n\nFor us we have our pockets usually in more rural less populated areas further away from larger cities where there is more diversity but that’s the same often in many countries that you will find some of the louder racist homophobic intolerant voices typically in places that truly are unfamiliar and ignorant to the experience of growing up with and around much of any diversity of varying kinds. So it’s not to say we don’t have racism and intolerance of course like anywhere we do. It’s just contained and the range and frequency and intensity is MUCH different. We distinguish nuances of diff cultures and religions more easily and in larger numbers we’re more familiar with diff ways of life , language , food, dress , holidays , values and used to a much less segregated way of existing even when we are differnt from each other as the NORM. My parents were both born in the states and my older brother was born there but they moved up here when he was a baby. So nearly all my extended family lives down there and I’m a duelly. And my experiences discussing things with my cousins or visiting absolutely could be described as culture shock at times. The insane things that came out of my own cousins mouths when they hear our friends or partners of various cultures , our not understanding how big a deal and incredibly insulting apparently it is to have assumed someone American was lgbt lol the list goes on. Like I don’t think our most intolerant Pockets can hold a flame to even ur closet to middle a bit intolerant places and contexts in America. Quite honestly. \n\nI think the absolute undying favourable passionate upholding and support of nationalistic, capitalist, hyper individualistic mentality about society as a whole (from my Canadian born and bred perspective lol) makes the differences even more glaring blaring and hard to swallow for us lol. I think more Canadians would feel exactly how that comment stated , that you felt was not fair for us to experience America as. I think the truth is a lot of Canadians are being too polite to let you know that’s exactly how a lot of America comes off to a lot of Canada ?

Why aren't there any Swedish, Italian, English students?? Why all Indian?Just enforce the law and we wouldn't have this problem. It's not Mumbai north.

If the U.S. would protect their border like Poland does then you wouldn't see this . Poland would open fire on them . They use lethal force to protect their border .?

See if these people stop thinking they were white in the first place. They could have fought with the African Americans and got their right. S they wouldn't be happening to do this now. But no, they didn't want to do it. They wanted to think they were white better than blacks better than Africans from Africa better than anybody else there they are. This is what happens when you don't stay true to who you are. God made you who you are and when you turn your back on who you are, you're turning it back on God.??❤

I call it bull that you grew up in India now it's your dream to go to canada. You don't know the history the only reason is our education system and financial reasons. If India had that you wouldn't be coming here.

Dear CNN you have made it clear to me TRUMP is a racist, murderous, NAZI monster. What should I do under your direction to save this country from his AGGRESSIVE HATEFUL murderous actions?????? We all know HITLER was responsible for KILLINGS! How should we protect ourselves??? There are crazy looking people ready to hall me away just like you reported on CNN. Should I lash OUT???? What kind of man wouldn't lash out after listening to the TRUSTED CNN reporting???? The NAZIS must be stopped by your own words!!

You people are just ungrateful. Try being born in a 3rd world country with a shitty economy and/or a dictator for the president, with an economy so shitty that you wouldn't know the cost of bread for the following day, no security, no freedom of speech. You guys are just joking with life

From a specific country and specific group... No wonder the US has strict quotas for them... Canada will wake up in year 2098 optimistically. With this trend, US might require visas from Canadians soon, wouldn't be surprised to see....

I moved here in April of this year from the UK so language wasn't an issue. Got my PR the hard, patient way. I can't understand how a language requirement is only now being applied. \n\nIf I was moving to somewhere where my language was barely spoken, or only spoken in a small corner of my new town/city, I'd do my best to learn at least a conversational level of the new country's language, even more if my potential work field required specific terminology and language... \n\nIt wouldn't occur to me to move to somewhere and not be able to communicate.

If there was NOT a market for drugs in the US they wouldn’t send them up to the US. Right, Don Jr?

If Brandon didn't open the border, this wouldn't be an issue.\nWhere have you been?\nSuch utter BS.

Yeah but corporate media wouldn't report the progress at the border. Why because Corporate Media wanted Trump to win ?

Where was this kind of reporting on tariffs 2 months ago? If we'd have gotten this kind of reporting on his plans then we wouldn't have to be reporting on it now.

Trump doesn't understand how and why US foreign policy (incl trade policy) works - which is part of why the GOP neocons and the deep state hates him like the plague (he can stuff up all their schemes with his ignorance)\nTrump is not cognizant of the reality (because it doesn't get talked about or said out loud in the mainstream media) that US is an Imperial power engaged in using complex diplomacy (including *sensitive* relationships cultivated over a long time) and threat of military force to suppress activities all over the planet in order to maintain a status quo where the US Empire gets to sit alone at the zenith of global power and wealth. It's not by real merit, this is a position established and maintained through aggression, and lot's of criminality carried out and built up over centuries of exploitative activities, which is why the deep state and powerful elite classes are so desperate to maintain the empire (and stop history from happening) because if forced to play on a more level playing field it becomes clearer that the sort of capitalism and unchecked neoliberalism the US political establishment is engaged in (and the current outcomes) are completely unsustainable.\nLike if something changed and the US dollar stopped being relied on as the premiere reserve currency of choice then they wouldn't be able to keep printing and spending money on value-losing expenses and they'd realize how badly screwed not just the economy is but the entire culture of thinking would have an existential crisis

She feels that they have leverage because China is using Mexico to export their goods. If Mexico’s government was so great, people wouldn’t try to leave. You’re not dealing with a dummy.

only Mexico's drugs wouldn't have tariff

We wouldn't be on this position, if Biden hadn't opened the border, & Harris had done her job.
2024-11-26 0
And the slowing and progress of Bidens economy is undermined just like that. MAGA time. I didnt know the depression and ww2 were the great times Americans voted to come back. He's bringing back the depression and ww3 like he said he wouldn't but he always wanted. Trumps goal is to bring America to her knees so Putin can have her way with her.

Well...if the US/CIA hadn't spent 7+ DECADES destroying Mexico and South American countries...we WOULDN'T HAVE an immigration problem

Was a pretty solid election promise. I wouldn't want to see a backflip.

I wouldn't expect Mexico or Canada to cooperate with the USA on much of anything after this.

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'm cracking up????at how they were fighting by the door. He tried to get in again, and they wouldn't let him??????

Is this fake news??? Biden-Harris and the Democrats wouldn't do anything to help President Trump or the American people.

It’s interesting how politically charge anti-immigrant sentiment is blurring the lines between legal and illegal immigration and tend to showcase ethnic minorities. I wouldn’t be too surprised that the issue eventually becomes so overblown to include all visible minorities whom might be American-born yet targeted by the have-nots in white-America. This is akin to sentiment in 1942 Germany blaming the Jews for misfortune.

It is absolutely not an easy task to ruin such a great country in just 10 years. You could pick a random person off the street and make them the Prime Minister, and they still wouldn't manage to cause this much damage. Therefore, Trudeau is truly an extraordinary individual! He must possess a superpower for destroying a nation ?‍♂

I wouldn’t talk to either if my family was saying such a thing. Selfish and worthless piece of nothing.

yeah, don't see Maduro even caring about Trump making threats of tariffs if he doesn't accept Venezuelans back. As the rest of the continent know (like my own country, Chile), it's pretty clear he couldn't care less about people leaving Venezuela, less so about being diplomatic or having sanctions (they already have so many piled on). Airplanes with deported migrants wouldn't be able to land in Caracas

Wouldn't it be a magnitude cheaper to just give them all expedited background checks, work visas and give them legitimate jobs that the American public just won't fill? We have massive gaps in agriculture, manufacturing, meat packing and warehouse work. The gap is so great that there are states that have rolled back *child labor laws* just to fill them.\n\nMass deportation sounds like a great way to drive the country further into debt while slashing our labor force.

The woman's position is disgusting, yes, but amazingly it can't be denied that latinos and even most legal inmigrants are generally the first ones to be fuming at what they also view an extraordinarily abusive massive opening of the doors.at the border. The Democrats really messed it up in letting millions in and think it singlehandledly wouldn't cost them the elections.... and I am a Democrat.

Well since she made it she has made sure the ladder is kicked down for anyone dreaming of getting where she is...since she suffered getting hers why wouldn't they go through the same. Dont get me wrong if they'recriminals by all means depot them...but wow, as a woman should not even ask where she stands on a woman's rights to choose since she's out of bearing years let the youngest fend for them selves she's done her part that goes for her daughters and grand daughters

Wait, so Biden tried to rectify his mistake, and the Republicans wouldn't let him? And they're in the comments right now, arguing over the fact they want ILLEGAL immigrants to get out? The dumb really are easily manipulated

No it wouldn't cost that much. You dont HAVE to give them beds. Just send them to Mexico

Non-compliant state practically wouldn't be a problem. If the majority of states comply, migrants will go to sanctuary states and collapse their system. Then they will be too desperate to not comply.
