He is so rude if not racist!\nHe said Palestine is bombing Israel how exactly can they bomb Israel when THEY get bombed by Israel every day! Young innocent children have died and he is not just blaming Palestine but also plain Muslims.\nImagine if he was in a state of Palestine and Israel even gets support from bigger countries like the uk and the us! We can believe what we want and we can be Muslim and live anywhere we want!\nIslam is a religion just like Christianity, Judaism, and Hinduism!\nWhy can’t Israel just let our brothers and sisters in Palestine live in peace?

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 ?

Let's get real here, these international students do not contribute significantly at all to Canada's economy. They are a drain on food banks that locals need for survival. They are a drain on our economy because 90% of them are sending most of their paycheques back to family in India. They are taking jobs away from young Canadians trying to enter the job market while Canada's unemployment rate is high right across the country. The schools mostly are fraudulent diploma mills that are not providing any real world job skills that are useful to Canada or Canadians and 90% of Indian international students who enroll in these colleges do not even attend. They come only to work for dollars and send money back to India. Meanwhile the cost of living is extremely high due to the housing shortage caused by excessive Indian International students. It should be very clear now, Canada and Canadians want all these Indians to leave Canada and return to India as stated in the temporary resident visa. If not they will be cut off and deported also incurring a 5 to 10 year ban from Canada.

Being an Indian immigrant, I agree with them. Too many people were let in a shorter span of time. Most of them don’t even try to blend in and act like an entitled brat. I hope situations get better in coming years and Canada starts to prosper again. ??

Where are human rights. Its all formalities to show the world they exist with on actions. Why don't they go to Indian government and give them a better life. That not in their rules. Everyone pockets money, and poor people get nothing. Thx to big elites for letting that happen.

They better not have been let into Canada. Send them home, stay in your country and work to make it better. Stop destroying our country for your gain. Thats was their decision not ours dont make it sound like we are at fault. Tried of them crying about how they want to be let in illegally. Stop them at the source why do they even get this far.

Left learning American here. BE CAREFUL CANADA! We are seeing some sick fascist phuckery happening here in America and we are starting to see the same thing happening there in Canada. DON'T BECOME NORTH AMERICAS NEXT METH LAB! VOTE the fascist out NOW while you still can or you will have a Trumptard infestation of stupidity that will take DECADES to get rid off COMPLETELY ruining your country. Immigration is NOT YOUR PROBLEM, Unchecked capitalism is. Check the billionaires and DO NOT LET THEM INTO YOUR POLITICS!!

They corabarate with Biden & Kamala with there open border they let all those people go true here in Georgia we lost a22 year old foghting with a venesuelan rapes he kill her in 18 minutes she fight untill the last minute of her life a girl the had great future i am hispanic i came legal i am usa citense now i want Trump to kick them all out working after 40 years paying my taxes and my social security does not cover my medical bill 100% then this iligals are getting everything FREE NOT FAIR TO OUR PEOPLE PAYING THOSE TAXES

You must understand one thing. We the people of Canada are not to blame for your situation. It is THE PM. Justin Trudeau and his liberal party who agreed to this. We as a people are also in a dire situation because of all you people coming to OUR HOME land. We too suffer from lack of food, jobs, habitation. Our rights are not respected since you came here. But we do not fight you, we suffer you. It won't get better. I hope you will not take offense by my speaking out but just letting you know we have problems too, so next time don't believe it's better elsewhere you study at large, verify make calls. Do not trust the Embassies. I wish you better places to live, especially since the Election in USA. They threaten us of a take over from Canada to USA. Goodbye ? ???

So, who in Canada is going to step up and start the road to housing recovery? Will it be the lumber companies, who charge us more for our own wood than they do the Americans, Europeans and Chinese? Or how about the real estate speculator who HAS to double his profit with every deal so he can appease his greedy wife and spoiled brat kids? Oh, and NO LAND in BC or Ontario will ever be given over to affordable housing. That would be an oxymoron. Land is TOOOO valuable to give it over to NON-PROFIT housing. Fuck that. My kids ain't gonna grow up next to a housing slum. Or, how about the government??? They have the answers don't they? Isn't that why we elect them, put our trust in them, pay our fucking taxes to them?? What say, Government of Canada??? Are you going to step up and solve the problem or just keep giving the rich more incentive to crush the rest of us?? WTF!! Who is in charge and who really cares??? ANYONE??? What about the average able bodied Canadian young man and woman? Would you like a job doing something meaningful and constructive?? How about a career in the building sciences and trades? \nWhat's that? You don't get out of bed for less than 50.00 per hour? And you don't want to work for it, you just want to show up, punch the clock and let your union rep do your bidding for you??? \nFirst: GET A FUCKING EDUCATION, as in learn a trade or profession. Oh, but that would require you to put in the time and earn your skills. What's that? Too much bullshit for you? You just want to show up, do nothing and be handed a pay check of 2 grand a week...JUST FOR BREATHING THE FUCKING AIR??? \nIf you are looking to blame anybody for the state of this nation, just look in the mirror Millennials and Gen Z'ers. The future is right there in front of you, but you are too stupid, too weak and too much of a snow flake to do anything to secure it for yourself? \nSo, when it comes time to retire????....Dont cry when you find out the pension account is empty because you couldn't see past your self indulgence to realize that...\nYOUR FUTURE IS YOURS AND YOURS ALONE TO SECURE. NO BODY ELSE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR WELL BEING. It's all up to you Canada. \nOh, and about that trillion dollar windfall some of you are about to inherit. If anyone thinks that is a good thing, think again. THE WEALTH GAP IS GOING TO GET SO BIG there will never be parody and this will become a 4th world nation where 2 classes are all there is...RICH!!!!! and poor. 99 1/2 % to 1/2 %. That will be the ratio after the great wealth transfer. \nYour world Millennials and Gen Z'ers. Most or all of us will be gone by the time the shit hits the fan. Good luck with the party!

really sad to know. even indians are staying illegal in south east asian poor countries. look like they just want to get out of india hook or crook. canadians need to securitize whom they let in to their country. look like anyone with out any documentation can enter canada shame.

As an immigrant, lets get real. There is this one country that makes everything worse. They are the only one in these workplaces most of the time. I know they are hardworking, but why in the world Canada allowed too many from a single country? Now people are feeling the imbalance.

Stop panicking: there’s a residential bubble because housing has some catching up to do, corporations gouged prices using propaganda to blame the government. Canada has gone through so much worse in the past, it doesn’t compare. You should understand what the pandemic has done and understand that getting back to normal doesn’t happen overnight. Just check that Canada has been ranked 3rd best country in the world after Switzerland and the US. We know that President Biden’s outstanding performance has pushed the US to that 2nd rank but let’s see how quickly it will go down under Trump. \nThe way to stop price gouging is to stop buying overpriced items, that’s all.

I am an Indian, came here for ML research. Was unpleasantly surprised to witness so many unskilled Indians ruining the country. Uneducated, can't speak English, rude, unkempt. Like I love my country but I also love the country I immigrated to. I know tons of Indian friends like me who feel the same way. We all feel like we scammed ourselves into coming here. Every doordash and uber guy in Toronto is an Indian guy, who probably came here through a diploma mill. Why did Canada let this happen? Weirdly enough, even now, it's easier to get into Canada as a Khalistani terrorist or an LMIA abuser with a fake IELTS score and fake college admission letter than honest Indians who come here for higher education at good schools. Anyone reading this and from India, just go to the US man. At least despite the H1B lottery they respect your time more than Canada and you earn way more in 2-3 years than you would here in 6 years.\n\nPs : I singled out Indians since I am one but Palestinian refugees with their never ending incessant virtue signalling marches, Ukrainians with their virtue signalling marches and destruction of property, middle eastern refugees etc are all part of the problem. It's like they came here to bring their problems with them.

Why is Canada getting rid of Indians but the uk is letting convicts and rapists in through the boats who are given so many freebies while pensioners have lost out on their pensions after working in the foundries and hard in the textile industry. It isn’t fair.

For all you who voted for trump: So you believe in imaginary facts just because you herd trump say it. \nThat is the trouble with MAGA, they don't ever check to see if anything is true. So go ahead and keep granting unlimited power to those who will never let you in the club. Never allow you to get ahead unless it by lying, cheating and stealing. \nYou really can't stand to look at all those trump business failures, bankruptcies and unpaid debts. \nWhy else does he sell cheap Chinese crap on the internet just like all those other late-night fraudsters do. \nYour rage has probably stopped you from reading anymore.

When can we see trump baby diaper balloons again it's time to bring back Mexico you can be first and Great Britain your second and Canada be third let's get going again ?

Everyone don’t be surprise on the logic from cartel’s member… when you are hungry for money with no other way, you should rob a bank, when you are thirst for sex and can’t get a gf you should rape someone and break the law, they should not be put to jail and separate with their families because it’s “cruel”, they are “human being” and we should treat them with dignity and respect, I even heard drug dealers saying that it’s not their fault as they didn’t promote drugs, drug addicts willingly buy from them so it’s not their fault, they are entitled ??? there are legal ways to seek asylum’s but ofcourse those whom try to come in legally should be put on waiting list and let “illegal” immigrants to cut their lines

People your hate towards Trump doesn’t allow you to understand Trade . Mexico exports 70 to 80 % of their goods to the USA and its easy access . Let Mexicos president get stubborn and argue with trump over politics and she’ll regret it . Mexico hasn’t done anything for Biden only help these migrants into the USA

So let me get this straight: Biden allows 14 million Immigrants into the country, while Trump decides to fight against this, yet is always antagonized by the same people who habitually lie to its viewers. I’m done with the Democratic Party

I have huge respects for Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo the President of the United States of Mexico ?????? she has valid points. I hope both countries can work together EQUALLY (key word) for the best of both countries. As an American (love Mexico ??) I will acknowledge and call out the US for being BULLIES (don’t get me started with how exactly this country was founded ?….the US Government has a lot of innocent blood ? on their hands)….again it’s about RESPECT which I hope Trump will do(but let’s be real ….i doubt)

I'm a US citizen living in Honduras. I'm sorry, because this is unrelated, but I want to let people know..... Today I was condemned to fight cancer alone. When my cancer was discovered for the first time, it was because I had seizures. Because of this, I can't drive. Because I can't drive, I can't get a decent job in The US. For a spousal visa, you need to have a certain amount of money. I don't have it. No matter that we have it together - being the citizen, that responsibility is solely on me. A humanitarian visa is $730, and only good for one use. We can't afford that. We went for a tourist visa, with a emergency appointment. They approved the emergency appointment, then promptly denied my husband's visa, without even asking him WHY he wanted to go to The US. Fighting cancer alone is exhausting. Why is that not a good enough reason for my husband to go to The US with me? Only for my appointments. Why is that not good enough? I guess he'll meet my family at my funeral, but not before.

If the acceptance letters were fake, did the schools still let them study? Or did these fake students get a visa anyway then came to Canada to work?

This is the Trump cult presidency, it's all about threats, lies and revenge, keep everybody fighting each other, this is how he operates, be afraid of the big orange snake, the tough guy wannabe, the bully, the villain, the devil. Get ready America this is what you voted for, so don't complain, history will record & remember this insanity, just make sure, you open your eyes and don't let it happen again!! #2026

Please, let her be the 1st one to get deported. \nI'm ready with my popcorn ?.

Mexican here living in Mexico let's close the borders and the business between our countries, let's see who survives ?? get China to provided all good and services we provide ohh yes also fighting with China ?? maybe Americans will do everything ohh wait how much you want to be pay by hour right? ??? you can't afford it, America must fall

Mexico has been imposing tariffs on Americans, and Mexican’s, for taking their cars over there for a long time. \n\nYou have to pay for a permit, along with a hefty deposit (depending on the vehicle year), to cross your vehicle into Mexico. You can cross into the border towns, but if you want to drive further in, you have to pay. \n\nThis is done to eliminate competition, instead of letting the market dictate the pricing. And if you don’t return your permit, you don’t get your deposit back and lose the ability to cross any vehicles for life. No, how is that fair?!\n\nAnd you STILL see Mexican nationals buying vehicles here, and just paying the hefty tariffs, just to legalize their American vehicles in Mexico. \n\nWe can just start there, and do the same thing to them. I don’t think they’d like that one bit.

It's about serving big corporations for a cheap workforce, demoralizing the local population. Failed policy, or exactly as intended? The wrong assumption is the country cares about it's citizens. Nobody talks about the banking system, stoking the ever expanding and toxic real estate bubble. That's making housing expensive. Housing for international 'investors' that remains empty or close to it in order to launder money. Let's not talk about TD bank being fined $3billion for money laundering. No, the debate gets framed into simplistic terms...

I don't think Mexico's President gets it yet. The cartels will be designated as a foreign terrorist group. Mexico's government has done nothing significant to stop them from committing crimes against the U.S and it's citizens. The U.S military has every right to invade mexico to take out the terrorists and it's government if they're involved with the cartels. Mexican government has been letting Isis members come into the U.S from their territory. I would think that's an act of war by the mexican government.

Let me get this straight it’s ok to tax our own (rich Americans) but completely not ok to tax other countries? A yes you may think if supply decreases a demand stays the same that prices go up but if done right we pick up that supply here in America making us stronger.

3 countries against 1 let tht sink in ??? u also got russia on the corner its going to get bad for US man & im here for it congrats on ur new president

lets see how long these americans last in the hot field getting worse each & every year

Total gaslighting going on here. The only reason illegal migration is so bad is that the Mexican government doesn’t control their borders or the cartels. Get real with your commentary. President Trumps is already successful just in letting them know he’s coming and no more bs will be tolerated from mealy-mouthed Mexican presidents who are funneling these millions north.

You should have counted those who didnt fall for your meritless vote as one. The ones who did this to me, Google indicates at least Pelosi and Trump let me know that onky two% of voters actually know what you colluded to do to me. That is 2% after standing out on the sidewalk with my protest sign, writing letters to the DOJ and HHS eight years back and somehow getting a law enforcement officer to Google this garbage you collused to do to my body on the internet. Before you ordered me slaughtered on the surveilled sidewalk and made sure the witnesses would disappear. I am watching you derive approval in some of his nominees, tell your party to work hard, make sure your topic yields the right voter approval and wait two years as voting history switches back and forth. Kiss that -**. You helped elect him

trompas only see one thing, mexicans are awake, and we see everything, and since, trompas wants to talk about , getting ripeoff, check this out, it goes like this.,!! estados unidos mexicanos, oaxaca, estado soverano de mexico, , was first , then united state of america, now who is the ripeoff, _________, there is only one civilization with a culture and is not US ., so i call it USAR of mexico.? , so trompas tariff this nuts while you re at it? , lets not forget the sence of humo, ???? nuts,?????

i cant wait till Trump teaches this woman a lesson and threatens to close the border again...if she lets her emotions get in the way shes done for?

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

Let's see how upset Trump voters will get once they understand their favorite drugs will go up in price too. America has a drugs, guns and no justice for all problem.

This is exactly why we elected Trump! Deporting millions will save us billions annually. Threats of tariffs will lead to more jobs in the US. Thank you Donald Trump! Let's get the cartels next. Threats from Mexico ??

“The Oppressed Becomes The OPPRESSOR”? Her warped mindset can be a self-esteem issue borne of her own oppression — perhaps a belief that oppression of others is a sign of her strength & creates a feeling of false power, through her assimilation?. She drank the KOOK-AID?‍?, believing her 1 vote put her above her own family members? She thinks she’s now on equal par w/??45/47/MAGA/Program 2025/white ppl?? I hope she doesn’t turn her family in to get a pat on the back from the right wing extremists nuts that still hate her existence on earth as a Mexican; that’s Dehumanization 101‼️They’ll deport her first, & let her figure out how the hell she can come back to America. She may need a serious wake-up call like that to remember who she is, w/PRIDE, not w/HATE. Unconscionable & a Total Disgrace is this female???

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

Go to china or North Korea! Let’s see how far you get

Boy, some people would cut off their nose to spite their face. Let's hope your doctor is not an immigrant that gets deported. You want the immigrants gone, yet you whine about the wait time for doctors and medical services, many of which are provided by new comers to Canada and the United States. Canada and the US do not have a monopoly on brilliant people. They exist in every country around the world. To not recognize that does everyone a great disservice.

Its not the entire Country lets get that straight, its justine and his off the wall ideologies of who to put blame on. He does not speak for majority of Canadians. Stop blaming us the citizens of Canada it is not us making these changes its our wacko leaders.

So.. lets be clear.\n\nThe amount of administration that would be needed is insane. Trump suggested he wanted to remove legal migrants as well as people who were in the US when born but their parents arent mirgants. \n\nIt would be unprecedented level of moving people and would likely result in huge amounts of death and rape. \n\nThen while I find a worse argument the economy would collapse. A lot of illegal immigrants do work under horrific conditions, still pay tax, and get paid less than minium wage. \n\nWe saw this in florida.\n\nIf this goes ahead which I think it is reasonable to suggest it will not. A lot of people will die and literally no one stands to benefit

I will pay you good. Let your wife marry me & help me get to PR. I am serious.

SO as a Texan, I can relate big spaces and safety; believe it still exists here, and I love it. BUT here's the thing. I'm not just sayin this to you but to let''s say California ..you can't. run from problems and as beautiful as Canada and California are, the solution is not to escape but FIGHT to get your land back . This destruction of democracy which in this case Canada is a socialist country, ..you cannot escape . It will eventually catch up . Don't leave it to others to do it YOU HAVE TO do it for your country . Believe me I love having a good time and travel, but there are times in which you have to be serious, work, and fight. Life is not a blog or a YouTube channel. Don't run fight for your country back.

Living in Montreal, so MANY French people come here with their free education, take up jobs, housing (that locals NEED) and contribute nothing back into our economy, then leave once they get their PR to Toronto or try to make their way to America/New York. Legault need to STOP letting them get a free ride in our Country as well. The ones who plan to stay have taken over Le Plateau and pushed smaller locally owned business out and over priced everything including rent. WHITE FRENCH PEOPLE ARE PROBLEMATIC! Same with the UKRAINIANS REFUEES!

Get all those with European ancestry out too! We don’t need more hateful white people here. Don’t let it become the U.S or we’ll start seeing white supremacy movements pretty soon! Petition to see all white people deported! They are NOT Canadians! This is Aboriginal land! You don’t beat someone up, steal their home and call it yours!!!

If someone getting happy after hearing this news let me tell you it’s not people from Brampton these are mostly European immigrants who came here from early 1700s
