The problem is that the newer immigrants are from the lower rung of society. Most of them do not assimilate into western culture well. I agree with your assessment that the government is incompetent and also responsible.Your assessment is accurate.

This guy is right for the most part. A gov't telling the world to come in and not integrate or learn English is a big part of the problem. Then there are Indians who exploit Indians overseas. The thing too is the bad people coming now get so much free stuff. The rest of the immigrants who built this country had no programs yet have to pay for the newcomers who are changing the country. So some things aren't the Indians fault. The rest of us who came and adapted now face discrimination from newcomers and our own people who say Canada has no culture. I come from a time when foreigners got along for the most part. Now so many groups that all hate each other. We came here to get away from the crappy people in our country but now they have followed us here and turn the good land bad.

Canadian girls and women need to make 3 babies at least that way no need immigrants thats the problem we don't have enough labour force and government need immigrants students stay home ladies wash dishes clean houses don't go to work make more kids otherwise immigrants will overtake this country one day

I doubt that why the immigration policy never send people to develop new cities, there are massive land and small towns can develop in Canada. Problem occurs because all immigrants sticked with big cities like Toronto and Vancouver, thats a chaos with 400k people move in those cities every year.

Population is the ultimate wealth for any country. Just government need to plan accordingly to create new work opportunities and stop voluntary jobs. The immigrants are not at all problem. The problem is the system.

F$%# Trudeau. It's too late. This is what voting Liberal in Canada will get you. This country is quickly being destroyed by the Leftist Agenda with wide open borders exactly mirroring Kamala Harris and the Democratic party. Reducing immigration to 21% over 3 years is laughable! This is not going to temporary solve the massive problems you already created. Canada is becoming a third rate country and is rapidly deteriorating into a ?hole !

No one should make comments until actually VISIT Canada and see how many Canadian towns have been destroyed by Trudeau's open immigration policy. This is a REAL immigration problem!!! Its not a racism issue. I just traveled across the entire country from Quebec to Vancouver. It felt like a 3rd world country!!

It’s not the Hindus that are the problem, it’s those damn Punjabis posing as students so they can loop hole the immigration system to get their PR status. They give Punjabis that were born here a very bad name. They’re entitled, arrogant and refused to assimilate into Canadian culture.

A significant driver of Canada’s housing affordability problem is the treatment of housing as an investment rather than a basic human need. Housing has increasingly been treated as an investment rather than just a place for people to live. Homes are seen as vehicles for wealth accumulation rather than places to live. This approach has attracted large institutional investors (multinational corporations) who buy up properties, raising prices and squeezing out potential homeowners, especially first-time buyers. This problem iget worse because of the use of homes as a tax shelter, benefiting those with capital to invest in markets like Vancouver and Toronto. Greed and profit. Failure of our government to ignore this issue and dodge their obligation of providing a country where Canadians can live reasonable and thrive. Unfortunately it's happening around the world. Immigrants are NOT causing the problem. They are the scapegoat.

We don’t have an illegal immigration problem, we have a legal immigration problem. If you’ve been here 30 years illegally, the problem isn’t you, the problem is the insane system that is incapable of identifying and processing people that are a net positive to our country. There’s roughly 7.5 million workers in this country that are technically iillegal. To deport them as Trump and this lady want is to destroy our economy and in turn our country. Team MAGA seem to be clueless about what the state of immigration in America is, despite professing it to be their #1 issue.

That magic number that Canadians would like to get to is ZERO. We've already taken in more than we're equipped to deal with and need a complete halt to further immigration. If your kitchen sink was overflowing, the first thing you would do would be to turn off the taps and then deal with the problem.

7:15 ?? This is exactly the reason Immigration has to stop!!! We Canadians have paid into the system our entire lifes! These immigrants come here and have exactly this mentality!!! (We've come here and put 3 or 4 years into the system). Your entitlement is absolutely sickening!!! You want country that resembles yours? Get back on the plane! Stop complaining about our traditions! Stop rioting about problem's happening in your country in our country! Our country was a much better place before this immigration mess took place. I'm not racist by any means. There's people that come with a suitcase and thrive and work there balls off to make something of themselves and rely on themselves and embrace this country and are so appreciative for the opportunity our country has given them as a second chance, and are amazing additions to our country!. Then there's this.....

I feel people r crazy, not understanding who created this problem, Actually it's all due to wrong govt. Policies under the pressure from few corporate houses , who want cheap labour for next 10/15 years for their survival.Actually we all are immigrant at some point, our parents or grand parents moved to Canada.

Immigration is ongoing Colonization. And Canadians are MAD, because you have allowed for people from countries with HIGH RATES of pro-sexually violent cultural views, and low standards of hygiene and politeness into our country. And you let them come here as students and take up first world spots for first world Canadians. And FYI, there is tons of sexual violence on university campuses…so that tracks. \nYou let these people who are anti-dark skin into the country, and then you say because they are “racialized” they can’t be racist. That’s not how racism works, and I want my racists to be domestic, because then at least we share a cultural thread of unity: Canadian born and raised. Why are we being subjected to this B.S?? \nGOC has not created a way for us to report immigrants who are rude or abusive to Canadians, and who have over-stayed their visas. DEPORT THEM. When they commit crimes, instead of deporting them, you let them stay. They’re old women are also crooks and in on it. Imagine bringing the people who call and scam from Indian and Nigeria to Canada so they can just do it from here. Wild. And the Chinese (not Asians, I mean the Chinese)…are the colonizers of their part of the world, AND they cheat in schools. So you’re giving graduates spots to cheaters, liars, anti-Canadian, and racists. Canada never had a diversity problem, we had a supremacy problem, and we still do. And Canadian DOES NOT MEAN WHITE. So stop making this a race thing. \nYou let them snap up our houses and our land and jack up the prices, and force us into homelessness and prostitution to pay rent, and into drug addictions because of a lack of purpose. So the GOC literally just implemented the same strategy they used to place indigenous people onto reserves, but now it’s for all Canadians. And make no mistake: high rents for bento-box “luxury”/rat infested housing are min-reserves that are not built for Canadian bodies or our aging/disabled population. \nDEPORT THEM AND REFRAIN FROM GIVING THESE ANCHOR BABIES CITIZENSHIP. If they come here to have their babies, instead of giving them a Canadian birth certificate, you should be getting that certificate from their consulate. Cause at this point that’s just trafficking and financial fraud/abuse. We all know they come here to get the benefits and the domestic tuition, and a lot go right back to China. And it does seem to be the Chinese, Indians, and Nigerians (a lovely EDI mix) of thieves. \nCanada has spoken, we don’t want them, we don’t like them; and they do not like us, they want us out of our own country. This isn’t a racial issue; this is a cultural issue. You cannot have these anti-West people in our western nation. They gotta go. And who cares about the international students anymore or the money “they bring in”. Universities are registered not-for-profits in Canada, so the for-profit argument can’t track. \nCanada needs a RICO law so we can more easily seize their assets and expel them, and hold universities to the fire for this crap, and the government officials getting kickbacks. The GOC is the largest human trafficking pimps, and the universities are bottom bi***es. And don’t think we don’t know that the 30% cap DOESN’T apply to companies like Navitas who recruit for the universities, are housed in the universities, but are separate, private companies.

Like everything they do, Liberals make a big fuss when they have been told for 2 years immigration is THE problem and they called everyone racist. Still way too many coming in, to allow Canada to get back on track.

Why is immigration blamed while government corruption runs rampant? \n \nWe’re sitting on wealth, but idiotic policies hold us back. \n \nImmigrants are exploited, milked for their money, taxed hard as soon as they arrive, and blamed for every problem. \n \nRefugees? They’re handed instant permanent residency with no fees and given allowances—no questions asked!

The problem is unvetted criminals released into the country. Many US citizens have already been murdered, injured, etc. by illegal immigrants. This is a result of the Democrats's open border designed for future political gain. It is a breach of Biden/Harris duty to protect US citizens, makes Kamala unfit for president, plus she's an admitted Marxist, bad match for running a capitalist economy. Unelectable. Vote Trump

Potentially mismanaged \nRelying on food bank\nRefugees that land in toronto are occupying pur shelter systems\nNo solutions \nCanadian living in tents encampment \nUnaffordable rent\nCountry is not dealing with problems \nRate cuts is not a solution when more n more are coming n the once here cant even afford a home\nAffordability is impacting everone already n no one is listening \nImmigration plans needs to be careful review because proposal still not working n it's now out of control. They should have keep on top on the provinces n follow up most didn't stay in school \nTemporary immigration not an pr?\nCorrect they need to pay taxpayers for their mistake \nIt impacted alright \nAmbitious goals have cost a division in cultures. U don't see a mix of immigrants u onlybsee one.\nLook at housing . Canadians are being kick out of their apartments because they want to rent high rent to knew immigrants how is this fair. It's sad that the city violence has gone up n the amount of residents that are being affected ????\nLots of issues that really need to get fix.\nYes focus stop the landlord from kicking people out of the apartments just cause they want to be greedy as from breaking the law rules???

Looks, lets not get it twisted. Immigration fine, its the over whelming amount in Indian immigrants that is the problem

The problem isn’t immigration, it’s the two wars that we’re paying for.\nHating on foreigners is the way to fool the masses.

Mass immigration shouldn't be a thing anymore. It's 2024, not 1984. You're country should have it's s**t together in todays day and age to the point where don't have to flee it. Cough (India) cough... If your country is broke, stay put and fix it. Don't take your problems elsewhere.

Stop immigration period \nFix your problems before bringing more problems ?‍♀️ ?‍♀️

Reducing about goddamm time , they can't reduce it enough for me ,we should be like Poland and not let any in that's why Poland don't have this problem the immigrants were warned if they come knocking at their borders they have no chance of getting in and they are putting their lives at risk of being shot by military personnel. We should treat them they same way.

Because the Liberals are trying to reverse course on anything to reduce their terrible poling numbers. There should be 0 new immigrants until they fix the problems they caused!

The Canadian born citizens were right about the Convoy and the Immigrant overload problem. \n\nNext move is to charge Trudy and to just drop him from PM status.

Too late. The cultural shift has begun. Our children can no longer get summer or part-time work due to those jobs going to subsidized immigrants. Then they have to compete with said immigrants for rental property at inflated prices. Gen Z has all but given up, and they're right to do so. Who wants to work like a dog just to break even?\n\n These problems will not quickly be solved. This is what 12 years of Liberal management has given us.

Many immigrants from India are not only causing problems for Khalistanis, but also they are taking the jobs of many Canadian-born IT specialists. The IT market is saturated with cheap and useless unexperienced Indians which means experienced (highly paid) Canadian-borns are out of jobs claiming EI (or other provincial unemployment benefits).\nExcellent move by Treudu! He also answered the wishes of Quebec's premier on reducing the number of immigrants.

How they go to fix the immigration problem if they made that problem?

We need 80% cut! 20% is not enough!! We need to reform and fix our country for this massive immigration problem!

2:20 bringing in the 3rd world is NOT the solution to our aging demographic problem. We need to encourage young Canadians to have more children by offering affordable housing, lower taxes and higher paycheques. If in the future Canada was ever to go to war these immigrants and refugees assholes will tuck their tails between their legs and run to another country. We need a population that is patriotic and will fight to defend Canada.

20% drop is still 80% too many. We cannot cope with the numbers that are already here. More, no matter how few, just makes the problem worse. No immigration until everyone is housed.

I live in the United States and I’ve met lots of Canadians who visited the US have come down to live here\n\nI have to admit I’ve only been to Canada twice in my life\n\nI have immigrant family, who lives in Canada and my European Background mothers family came from Montreal to the US over hundred years ago\n\nNeedless to say, I’m familiar with Canadians that I meet here in the US\n\nI am aware that many Canadians superficially to Americans look like Americans, but aren’t and I know from Canadians that they find the lifestyle in parts of the United States, a little bit too intense and experience and expectation\n\nWhat you will find if you look at Canada’s past, history is a trail of Canadians. Who’ve had to come down to the US for employment opportunities as Canada has time not being able to provide the opportunity and sustenance for their population.\n\nI would have to say that perhaps maybe prior to the 2010’s Canada was doing very well and providing quality life for their population and their citizens and the residence\n\nWhat you find out personally is that is being mismanaged when it comes to immigration capital investment in industries And worst of all, not being able to ride housing in a place where exposure to the elements could be certain death for some people\n\nThere user based national health system seems to be freeing and not being able to provide the services that they once provided, which is also something that’s really troubling\n\nAnd now I hear that they have problems providing food at an affordable amount\n\nI wish you well and fighting a place that gives you better comfort and opportunities to grow and affordable lifestyle\n\nI can’t say in the United States you’re gonna find better you’ll find certain cost of living items a lot more affordable, but we do not have a safety net when it comes to healthcare

The process is not the same as it was in the 80s when they did not require renewal every couple yrs w high $ and rules to return to home country for a set amount of time risking losing your home/job/business etc. Some renewal process for green cards have sped up but still takes 6-1yr and a new green card renewal and new one for Mexico can take 1-3yrs for approval. So someone that’s been here +20yrs will have to leave everything they have built here to go wait quite a long time. Its not if you agree how they got here, its what they have done in our country since being here. They add to our economy, +80% pay taxes to never get any of those benefits and they open businesses employing people etc. If they have been here committing a list of crimes then no i don’t agree but majority of immigrants don’t do that. I agree our border needs protection and security. Majority of the left do agree w that but gop don’t want solutions they want to just shut it down completely and thats not right. We have always been a country of opportunity and growth for everybody. If we had a good border bill that they could all agree on fe border act was bipartisan til Trump didnt want to “give dems a win” which it would have given more $ for more judges to help speed up the process for asylum cases and put more agents on the border and more security at checkpoints which is where most fentanyl is caught. Ignorant republicans like boebert sharing the story of a big fentanyl bust at the border her reaction was “we need border security now!” Like who does she think caught that? Border security she think we dont have i guess. But there are alot of things that could be helped and sped up if we just had politicians that could agree, you have bipartisans that support then you have the handful like trump is the puppet master that shuts good things down for partisanship reasons. It’s sad bc the people are tired of this divisive behavior. To run on a problem instead of solutions!

I try to visualize this mass deportation. Where is he going to send them? How? At what cost? Sounds like a good way to scatter a bunch of working people into hiding. Violence would ensue. He can’t do what Hitler did because he’s already blabbed his plan all over the country. The problem with Trump is that he doesn’t want ANY immigrants here. Now or in the future. His own mother was an immigrant. He’s just like this lady. My best friend is from England and has a green card. She’s lived here for decades. Is he going to deport her?

It's ironic when immigrants, who were once newcomers themselves, develop anti-immigrant sentiments and blame immigrants for causing problems. It just doesn't make sense, especially coming from a country like Canada, which is known for its sensible and inclusive approach.

This is a total failure of the Trudeau government. It shows their interests in Canadian safety and interests. \nThe people who took advantage of Liberal Government stupidity are the Indians and especially Indian Punjabis. They took it granted and now they believe Canadian citizenship is their right. This huge hail of immigrants from Indian punjab created a lot of problems with the Canadian system and culture. They took all the jobs that Canadians had a right to. Cut the long story short . majority of these are not students. They just took advantage of a stupid government in Canada. Deport them all.

Trump did not fix the immigration problem. His plan for fixing it, is to round up all the mexicans and immigrants snd ship them out. He doesn't want black and brown people in America. He never says anything negative abour white immigrants.

They are right , when we complain about Rohingyas and immigrants who are causing problem when they are in population, they candians also have rights.

Indians were invaded, indians were taught English by the brits. Indian immigrate for better life to other countries, indians pay taxes and develop all countries. It's you who needs us to keep your engine running, complaining about too many Indians won't solve the problem. High potential, big brain indians leave our country which is a concern for us as well. Its like everyone is unhappy.

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.

But they have no problem with illegal immigration ( Muslim) ????

Corporate America will not do mass deportations of illegals... They need cheap, poor and exploitable Labor.\n\nTrump is just appeasing his xenophobic base scapegoating immigrants as the economic problem.... All the while busing them in white vans to work at his MAGAlago businesses.

If Indian journalists had done better jobs, some innocent people would be free without any problems now. \n\nDo you know if Canadian citizens learn something about sikh independentist? \n\nDo you know if Hardeep Singh Nijjar did something from Canada to India? Never forget media across the world have people to translate your news. \n\nCanada doesn't make enough effort to protect the population and accepts everything from strangers. It is not acceptable for a country to commit murders in another country. The Indian government is not rational on this point; only small policies without any vision. Reputation of India for only one citizen at this point, they could have 1,428,627,663 conflicts around the world, one for each citizen, good luck. \n\nI would boycott a lot of newcomers from India to avoid this kind of problem until having a real solution. Canadians can't inquire about newcomers from India. Canada is not a prison, we don't have to make effort to receive immigration. I think Canadians deserve a safe country. This is not refusal, but we don't need to import problem in this beautiful country.

Main problem is when Indian get job from Timhorton to software engineer in any company they make job crisis to other non Indian people so no one can able to get jobs without Indian ram , krisna and puza \nThey are all students or new immigrants \nOther people need job too .\nHow come they are doing three or four jobs????\nOther people need money to pay rent too.\n\nShe is 100% right \nWe are in Canada but no jobs only people who come yesterday from India have jobs.

Actually it is the problem of the colour she thinks khalistani terrorist and Pakistani illegal immigrants are also in Indian because of their colour???? an any concern citizen would not allow terrorist

It is always difficult for a new immigrant to find friends immediately but most OECD countries such as Canada would be the same. Clearly there are some cultural issues to understand, and perhaps language problems but finding employment can be a first step to solving this as well as joining those support groups who have a similar background to yourself. If you leave Canada I don't see how this would be any different in the new country you choose to settle in.

Give Canada back to Canadiens and deport all immigrants that come here to try and force their views on our country. Go back to your country and fight your own battles, stop relying on our country to fix your problems.

This is ridiculous. They're not going there as illegal immigrants. If the people of Canada have such a problem with immigrants then the GOVERNMENT OF CANADA needs to change their immigration policies instead, Trudeau is busy making false allegations on Indian security agencies. Such am embarrassing mess these Western countries..

Dont blame her for this we ourselves do it here itself. When someone from any northern state immigrate to south or maharastra they face the same problem like this guy faced. \nFirst let's improve ourself and then talk about others \nEdit : I am not from north India

it shows little understanding of the actual problem germany is facing by inserting a clip of the AFD-party. They are all for immigration IF the immigrants plan on working. Sadly the majority of immigrants does not work. Hence every person working is working for two retired and at least one immigrant in order to pay for all their expenses
