Are you going to do is take it from social security it's really not America no more we have a felon in the office??

Trump won popular vote, house and senate. Be honest… the one group most happy now are the drug suppliers for the left. The Dnc cannot accept that their nasty Hollywood American vision is unacceptable to the majority of Americans. We believe in Gd, family and country . Lying , hate, race baiting , and socialism is offensive how we were raised. Latinos blacks muslims women all seem to agree. Go if you dont like America

Did the security guards social credit score go down to negative infinity?

Note: If older Americans decide to move to Canada, and even take Canadian citizenship, they still get U.S. social security checks.

Plus Canada has a country named USA which is a very diplomatic/helpful country and we got China/Pakistan that have their own social league!

This protest is a joke! They know what they signed up for before coming to Canada. So,  they should work within the rules and find a way to legally settle (if they can) or leave. \n\n\nHowever, Canadians deserve to know more about this mess which is an outcome of aggressive marketing by Private colleges and the government's greed to get quick cash into the Canadian economy. Here are some clarifications to note:\n\n\n1. In the last six years, 1.5 million international students brought a minimum of $67,500,000,000 direct cash into the Canadian economy. (Assuming a min $40-45000 per student for 2 year diploma, between to $100,000 - 150,000 for undergrad, and around $50,000 for Masters degrees). Usually, international students have to pay most of this money before applying for the study visa. \n\n\n2. These colleges employ Canadians for their day to day operations. From cleaning, maintainance, administration to teaching, each college operates with approx 20-30million budget. So, more students lead to more employment for Canadians who further pay taxes.\n\n\n3. All students start work straightaway, pay taxes, and do not qualify for social security. They do not qualify for any student loans by Canadian govt or banks. So, they generate revenue for Canada through their work and taxes. The thing that govt LOVES.\n\n\n4. These students become new consumers and their expenditure generate revenues for local businesses.\n\n\n5. Most Colleges would not survive without international students. Which is good in the sense that only quality colleges will survive and other hanky panky colleges would shut down. However, such closures will lead to job losses, bankruptcy when the colleges won't be able to afford their expenses.\n\n\nSo, considering these factors it will be an industry collapse. Govt needs to control immigration. They need to introduce intelligent policies. The steps that current govt is currently taking are politically motivated not rational.

Canadas flirtation with socialism is a death sentence for the country. Those socialist paradise’s don’t pan out

It's Not enough and this was Not Fair! We came here in this country and vetted for 6 years by Immigration and all proper education requirements met. My mom worked so hard to be able to come into this Country when I was 14yrs old, there were Rules and Criteria. Now, it's all a Joke. People can come into Canada without proper oversight and Money works. As long as you have huge sums to pay, they let you in, easily, 3months you get Permanent Resident status, we worked hard for 6 years, even doesn't matter if you're a criminal from back home, they let you in, as long as you have money. No proper Vetting process! What has this Current government done to this once great country? They ruined this whole Canadian immigration dream for everyone. My family feels angry and cheated on! I worked 3 jobs since I came here young upto this day 26 years later, pay my taxes and these 'cheaters' get paid social assistance. Very Shameful Canada!

Yes, white people came to the new world and conquered the natives. For the next few hundred years they built western society as we know it. They were immigrants from different places, but they were mostly homogeniously white, and more importantly, they had commonality in their social norms, holidays, cultures, laws and religion. Mostly English, Irish, Scottish, French, German, polish, etc. -- they blended well and eventually created their own unique shared identities in Canada and United States. Things were stable and people were happy. Immigrants continued to flow, but in smaller numbers over greater lengths of time. This allowed time for integration, learning the common language, finding decent employment and housing, ect. Then Immigrants from vastly different cultures started arriving and in greater numbers, and greater rates... Job availability, housing, educational/medical services, travel infratructure could not keep pace with the sheer speed and amount of people flooding in. Therefore, everything and everyone suffered, and it isn't stopping.

Remember 20 years ago, businesses and wealthy, looked the other way because immigrants meant cheap labor without benefits, yet they still paid into social security and other taxes.

Subtle racism can feel pervasive in Germany, even in workplaces that emphasize inclusivity. Despite strong anti-discrimination laws, unspoken biases and microaggressions often impact people from diverse backgrounds, especially those who visibly differ from the majority. This can show up as exclusion from social circles, being overlooked for promotions, or facing subtle stereotypes. Real progress requires a deep commitment to inclusion, open dialogue, and structural change to create truly welcoming environments.

Her family have been here for 20 or 30 years illegally because there has been no pathway to become legal. Biden's recent executive order gives them a way, BUT OF COURSE ITS BEEN BLOCKED IN MANY STATES. Requirements include living here for 10 years, paying taxes and no criminal convictions. What would be wrong with that? Lady, those people have been funding your social security with possibility of ever being qualified for it themselves.

Social medias from Canada it’s not critical thinking in this country. All you’re doing is scapegoating who’s did who a lot of people weren’t doing anything about it in political activism and writing letters to him he’s just keep on blaming heat, but no people to come to Canada from Indian Summer good and there’s a lot of slough too

She needs a brain transplant. The convicted felon couldn’t care less about this stupid woman. She’d better not relying on social security benefit because her cult leader is planning to get rid of it.

Aside from the negative impact on our social systems, I.e. education, healthcare, housing, jobs, etc., I worry about future generations who are going to have to contend with our out of control national debt and increased taxes on the middle class to pay for it.

1 students from India bring 15 members of his family all have fake birth certificates did not contribute dime to Canadian economy get free health cares old age pension for parents, grand parents, social assistance for rest of the family also work under the table cash do not pay taxes.

shut up old granny. You are living on the money which lot of Indians paid as Social Security , Medicare and other Taxes which doesn't much benefit Indians back. Your race has more old population which means more taking than giving.

All BS. There are more loopholes to keep flooding this country with immigrants. Social cohesion and Canadian culture is dead. This was all intentional. WEF agenda. Trudeau and Freeland and all of the rest of the cabinet that belong to the WEF sold Canadians out.

So many are crizizing having no idea how to to to a sane plan to reach their objective. People with little education or experience in this field have strong opinions based on their biases. I'd like to not cover non citizens with provincial health or social programs until they are citizens and working. I'd like anyone committing crimes and is a non citizen, jailed and then deported. We don't need new criminals or drains on our social programs. I think most new immigrants are good people, but why should we pay for the others.

Done for ONE reason: to appease racist Poilievre-Conservatives who don't want any more non-Whites in Canada. THIS is where we're going, following the hate and stupidity trends in all Western countries, slipping towards Fascism. And here comes Poilievre who will be a MAGA-North, Trump-lite POS, embarrass Us and downgrade our social values in NO TIME.

it's too late!!! Too many have been let in already... Most canadians want you OUT!!! You and your party have changed the social fabric of this country and the repercussions will be felt for years to come!! aND IT WON'T BE IN A GOOD WAY!!!! You have done nothing but DAMAGE THIS COUNTRY !!! Go AWAY!!!!

Grandma doesn't have a clue that her old age social security benefits & 'free' medical aids are sponsored by tax from these hardworking immigrants & the exorbitant fees extracted from international students. Grandma has two kids. Both of them stayed away & both decided to raise dogs instead of kids. As long as dogs don't bring Canada money in future, the country dearly depends on immigrants to create a healthy working class. And, as long as people from the so-called 'first world' countries wouldn't care to migrate to this winterland, they only have two choices. Either convince the current generation of white Canadians to procreate a future working class, or to see the country slowly becoming brown !\nContext : Last month, Canada reported an all time low fertility rate ever ?

Either businesses will own governments and us one day, or we as the little people need to stand up for social equality despite location and economy.

Canada for Canadians and not for those who enter our country either with a sense of entitlement or milking the social system.

What shame all MAGA are narcissistic. A specialist said these Maga like to do harm. Imagine if Trump wins the military will be in our streets like Nazis Germany. Inflation sky high due to his tariff policy. Within 6 years social security will run out of money. They are not just harming others but will be harming themselves. I bet she is on social security, welfare and social benefits will be gone with Trump as president. A lot of these Maga morons will lose all their entitlements. Idiots.

This kind of problem Canada never experienced.\nCanada expected good people and good contributions \nto economy.\nBut cattle invaded, and over crowded everywhere and \nresulting in Collapsing infrastructure.\nIt’s time to reduce immigrants and remove unwanted \nOver flowed immigrants , to maintain social fabric.

Only people of color/ sikh people who do not follow law and order in Canada are the terrorists which ran away from India to gain protection under trudeau. The people you are refering as Indian are actually the terrorists. Indian government has repeatedly asked Canadian goverment to handover these people so we could imprison them for terrorism they did in India. But Canada did not even once comment on it, beacuse Canada is sheltering terrorists. Weird how Candian people dont even know about their own PM's doing in their own country. Indian have contributed in health and social services of Canda and actually improved their economic growth. You have poor government with poor restrictions. We are not the culprits. If you have proper laws they will follow.

People fail to realize that sometimes their social security benefits are paid because of immigrants tax payers

Pannun is a US asset. The threats he gave openly violated the free speech standards of the US. They will protect him at all costs. This is the truth, no matter what pro-US Indians are trying to tell you.\n\nIndia's best strategy is to leverage its relationship with the US to boost its economic growth, even if it means enduring some short-term humiliation. At the same time, India should focus on achieving self-reliance in critical technologies and operating systems and creating its own social media platforms, among others. That is the only solution.

We are a German-American family who moved to Germany from Prague 12 years ago. When we arrived we had zero assets, now we are financially independent and secure for life. My wife is American and finds Germany far superior to the US with regards to safety (gun-control), public transport quality, health-care, paid vacations and social services. I am surprised by the comments here, as I find real estate really cheap in Germany compared to other Western countries and it's a great place to buy real estate to rent out and get the tax advantages. Sure, income tax is high in Germany, but as a family you also get a lot in return for it and there are massive benefits for disabled people and children (Kindergeld), while education is also free and health-care is universal as well. Everybody wanting to move elsewhere has to consider whereever they go they will be taking themselves - and if complaining is a passion, you will be doing that everywhere you go.

The same is happening in Germany. The worst is, that there is no one to talk about it. We had an amazing social system, which wasn't perfect, but surely working. Due to overregulation things are getting worse & worse. But instead of rational discussion, people are afraid & cling to more and more left uneconomic ideas, which leads to high votes in the left wing & the labour paries. Even ppl, who were former conservatives are now afraid & voting left or have leftist opinions.

Canada was never a place to go even 30 years back. Only crooks or loosers went there but smart ones came and left quickly.\nYou are not talking about grown up social vices of Canada.

I was visiting when I felt sick. I came home asap. Turned out I had a tumour on my brain stem. Thankfulness. 4 surgical teams, 10 hr surgery, 1wk in hosp, months of homecare, rehab and follow up mri and care. Yikes. My sis moved down in 1976, was good when she was in her 30’s while she worked. Her husband, American, went off on Canadian disability and once my sister retired their healthcare costs were crazy. They moved to a state that had better senior med care. I was visiting four yrs ago. My sis had several hosp visits due to heart issues. She ended up having open heart surgery. The hospital was lovely. Care was great. Pt care room was huge. I was used to tight icu cubicles. She had complications, day 4 the social worker came to tell her she was being discharged the next day. Her insurance had run out. There was no further coverage!!! She was in her 80’s had just had a stent blow thru her R coronary artery 5 days earlier then have bypass surgery and had just come off a ventilator the day before. I had to get back to Canada the next day. Thankfully, the social worker was able to continue working to find respite care at a nursing home for her for a couple more wks. \n\nI love certain parts of the states having spent a majority of my childhood visiting since my big sister moved there. Both countries are having issues now. Housing sucks in canada. If you aren’t doing well financially, canada isn’t all that great anymore either.

The problem isn’t the government the problem is the people. It’s the people who voted Trudeau in government and gave him power because all people heard in debates were “free”. The truth is the people have no clue about economics and vote based on feelings. Canadians are in love with socialism want to be taken care of by government and have no clue what the values of western civilization is. Until the culture changes governments will always be the same

The grass is always greener. We are not the US thank god. Greed over benefits over better education and in general a greater social safety net. The large centres in Canada have had there real estate exploited by big business and wannabee real estate tycoons it like the many other schemes that came before are looking to exploit working class people and that has made more difficult for people that doesnt mena Canada doesnt have opportunity. Those who leave are all looking for the brass ring it doesnt mean the US is the answer for some people it is. Funny we all expect what we need should be ours for the taking and we think if we dont grt it thay we are being cheated. The US is a larger market and if you have what they need you are likely to get more for it because of quality competition is high. It is here too just not as much choice. No one is holding you here things go in cycles eventually the real estate will find a level and people will start in better positions. Running to something may benefit you but running from life here is not gurantee of better things giving up is when you start to fail it isnt our governmemt the people or the country its in each of us as to what we want and weather they want to be in Canada or they don't its not the fault of tue country itd still top 5 on the planet peoples expectations are kust greater doesnt mean succesd is on the American side.

I am Canadian and a lot of the people I know that are under 30 and especially under 25 are only employed part time (due to lack of work) and still live with parents. I feel it will lead to lots of social issues in future as they are not gaining experience in fields that are valuable while never making enough to live on their own. The high competition and lack of career opportunities will just lead to brain drain. What will be left is a large welfare problem and skilled worker problem as anyone will skills will jump ship. The friends thing is also a BC thing, BC is strange

The big issue with mass immigration is there has been next to no quality control. The indians that arrived a decade ago say the indians arriving today suck because they're of a different social class. A decade ago immigrating to Canada wasn't easy so anyone who did come here was typically educated and of higher quality. I think the majority of indians are good people just trying to make it but if you bring in millions just viewing them as $ cows of course there are going to be a percentage of bad ones. A greater issue with this too is now the country is in such disarray that anyone who is a potential quality immigrant might not want to come here.

I am a born and raised Canadian and have seen my country go downhill for at least the last couple of decades.\nHealth Care: doctors and nurses are moving Stateside in droves. No, the US doesn’t have universal health care but there are insurance plans and the care is enormously better. My girlfriend had 4th stage throat cancer. In Calgary the doctors at some point told her there was nothing more they could do for her and to get her affairs in order. Her father sent her to the Anderson Clinic in Houston - yes it was expensive but they treated her, saved her life and that was 24 years ago. \nIt’s common in our emergency rooms to wait up to 12 hours to be seen. \nOur system isn’t progressive and doctors and nurses don’t get paid near as well as in the States. That being said, I am happy that I don’t have to pay to see the doctor or have a stay in the hospital. \nCost of Living: Once upon a time it was good - housing was cheap and many companies had the full range of benefits and salaries were equal to the cost of living. Now these same companies have stripped the benefits by hiring people under contract so they don’t have to give them benefits. \nRents are through the roof and in Calgary there are no rent caps. Buying a decent house in a decent neighbourhood is impossible unless you inherit or make a six figure income. This, in no small part, has created a homelessness crisis that never had been seen in such numbers before. Crime also is getting worse by the day. Canada was once known as a safe country. This is no longer the case.\nEverything is very expensive and the tax very high. Plus, we have to suffer winter! Where I live, the joke is that we have two seasons - July and winter!\nI still like my city (not love) but I am retired and own two houses - one inherited and the other bought when it was affordable (32 years ago). Calgary would not be a place I would live if I was a newcomer. Vancouver is beautiful but you really pay for it. \nTrudeau has helped make a big mess of things with immigration and lax criminal laws. My beef is not with immigrants I must state - it is with the lack of jobs for them when they come, thereby forcing bad living conditions and an over reliance on the social systems. I add that the immigration population is much more willing to work in jobs they have to take (despite a high education) than our natural and bloated citizens.\nSo yes, Canada has increasingly gone downhill. On a positive note, hand guns at least are not legal and our country has beautiful natural land.

The government has done nothing to safe guard our nation against the Rich and the Greedy. That is why things are fucked. The food price is controled by 3 persons in the entire country. There was no social construction housing taking place for 8 years after it was consider necessary! it is difficult to find a job in our country for the native. Imagine trying to find a good job for an immigrant aside from working at WalMart.

We must remove the power from the rich as they are destroying this country by making stupid decision that broke cultural unity. And that have direct consequence on the people and how safe you feel in your own country. If you don't feel safe, you stop working. That is what is happening... In a social way, we are being raped.

The real reason the homelessness is gotten to be so badin Canada is because marijuana has become legal. I live in a state below that has legalized it as well, and I can see the same dynamic here. I grow it, but what we never took into account were what the social implications would be like after legalization.

No one wants to live in Canada because nothing is good about it. No one will pay you enough to live anywhere, except social housing. Why come to a country where the best thing you can do is live in a shelter?

Islamic rule in India was a form of colonialism, characterized by the imposition of a foreign islamic culture, religion, and political system on the Indian subcontinent.\nMuslims were foreign invaders who came to India and imposed their Islamic faith and culture on the indigenous population. They point to examples of the destruction of Hindu temples, the imposition of Jizya tax on non-Muslims, and the forced conversions to Islam as evidence of this colonialist mindset.\nMuslim social attitudes on modern issues have caused controversy everywhere. Islam to be incompatible with secular society, and that, unlike other religions, Islam positively commands its adherents to impose its religious law on all peoples, believers and unbelievers alike, whenever possible and by any means necessary. Islam allows to propagate abuses, such as the mistreatment of women and homosexuals, and slavery. They also state that multiculturalism allows a degree of religious freedom that exceeds what is needed for personal religious freedom and is conducive to the creation of organizations aimed at undermining secular values. According to poll, high people had an unfavourable view of Islam, higher than for any other religion.

We degrade our country too much on social media thats why these countries are chasing our people making it look like their countries are heaven on earth meanwhile their countries are trash .

This campaign message paid for by the Conservative Party of Canada. Sadly, the Canadian populace is currently in a mood to buy into the BS of grievance and elect Poilievre, who will then trample human rights, bust unions, and further enrich corporations to the detriment of societies most vulnerable. The pendulum always swings back to greed after a period of social progress.

The government was well aware. There were so many fake institutions set up. This was just a cash grab by the government.\nNo one cared about the social, economical or racial implications.

They want to make Canada another India. They are not educated , keep on social assistance and do not speak the language

Lol why u ask? \n\nBecause it is too much.\nBecause it is of the wrong kind\nBecause it is a finalcial burden\nBecause it is a criminological problem\nBecause it is a social problem

Canada got screwed by the Liberals and certain provinces like BC got screwed by the NDP. Socialism destroyed Canada. The country has a massive bureaucracy that has ballooned out of control. There are no incentives to attract business, so a few companies monopolize everything. The government allows so many immigrants but then doesn’t recognize their qualifications so all they can do is drive an Uber or deliver pizza for a living. Dumbest government ever. And it’s not only the government’s fault. Canadians themselves are a stupid people. All the Liberal Party has to do is say “The Tories will criminalize abortion and take down the pride flags and not allow transgenders to use the women’s bathroom” and boom millions and millions of Canadian women will then vote Liberal no matter what

omg.. just to know when they apply what happens\n\n- free legal aid (paid by the government - which tax payers are paying)\n- 800$ a month social assistance (paid by the government - which tax payers are paying)\n- free health care (paid by the government - which tax payers are paying)\n- free medications (paid by the government - which tax payers are paying)\n- free education (paid by the government - which tax payers are paying)\n- free court attendance (paid by the government - which tax payers are paying)\n- free mental health sessions (paid by the government - which tax payers are paying)\n\nand much more to list...\n\nThis thing needs to STOP immediately and they all should be going back home. Canada is not a refugee hotel to rack up expenses on the back of Canadians
