Our system has been abused for too long. My mom worked as a nurse's aide in a hospital for many years. This was in south Texas. I remember her telling me that Mexicans (with money) would come to have their babies here and then go back to Mexico. When the children were grown they could come and live here easily. I remember it pissed.me off. It didnt matter if they paid for the delivery. They were still cheating our system. I'm all for denying these people citizenship. We should follow Germany's example.

I dont mind the indians since i dont live in an area with too many indians. Well i do (markham) but what annoys me (not tryna sound racist but i just need to say it) theres a lot of chinese here and markham's demographics is like 27-19% european and indians are 19% here but here we have nearly 50% chinese out of our like what 368,000 citizens.. i dont mind them but everywhere i go i hear people speaking chinese, posters in chinese, even some teachers have been teaching more chinese than canadian history at my sisters school. My PE class is 18 chinese kids, 3 white kids, 3 indians and 3 black people. See what i mean.. They're smart and keep to themselves but in my experience they're pretty loud and can often be a bit rude and a lot of the times a bit racist too. Edit: before anyone asks yes i am white. I am not trying to be racist but I would just like someone to hear me out. I think people in Brampton are having similar issues.

Why is this news sending shockwaves through the Indian community ? All they’re asked to do is go back to their homeland. Why would anyone be shocked if asked to go back to their country of birth ? I really don’t understand why Indians like to flee their country to anywhere in the world & get terrified when asked to go back. Is India as a country really that bad ?

I keep on wondering why Canada's GDP keeps going up and down. For example look at the GDP numbers in the years, 1976-77, 1991-96, 2000-02, 2008-10, 2012 and onwards. What would be the correct diagnosis?

As a russian who raised in Germany i can say its impossible to close friendships with germans if you are not familiar with them since kindergarten or school ?I ve spent 25 years of living here and got only one german friend, all other are foreigners who raised in Germany like turks, russians, greeks and so on. My advice would be , come to Germany for economical reasons, but go to England or Spain if you care about social life.

Deportation of all these immigrants would bankrupt 0ur farming industry and lots of Americans would go hungry.

A good chunk out of 7000 would go underground !

I thought Toronto was a shit hole.\nVisited NHL Hockey hall of fame. Which mostly Canada hall of fame.\nMy car got broken into in the parking garage the hotel told me to park in. Almost got into a fight at a hockey game. Some dumbass would run out of his section to my section and yell in my face. Especially at the end of the game. Security cut in front of me for his safety. Never going back. That town hates Americans

Why would you voluntarily want to go to the US right now.

Thrump brandishes the threat of force and puffs out his chest\n\nAfter having lunch with Sarah Netanyahu in his private club in Florida yesterday, December 4, 2024, Thrump, the next president of the world's leading power, made a thunderous statement; threatening those who hold Israeli hostages and their sponsors with terrible reprisals. We know him well enough and we predict a chaotic and catastrophic mandate worse than the first. But this overly muscular statement helps us predict what the foreign policy of this contested and protesting president will be. He who - during his election campaign - made it known that he is against the war in Ukraine and against war in general, we do not understand how he is going to free the Jewish hostages held by Hamas without resorting to the exaggerated deployment of force? But the most serious thing is that during his next term, he would very much risk leading humanity adrift. How can he not learn the lesson of the student movement that shook America at the very beginning of 2024? And how will he dare to swim against the current? Knowing that American youth have clearly become aware of the Palestinian tragedy, firmly opposing their country's strange foreign policy and vigorously condemning the Zionist takeover of their state affairs? Thrump would do well to take into account the cardinal changes that have taken place in the unanimous awareness of international public opinion; otherwise he will be grilled alive. It is not a single man - even if it means being the President of the UNITED STATES of America - who will stop the inexorable march of history. The Palestinian cause obeys this logic of evolution and what has been imposed by force of arms for 75 years has reached its fateful deadline. Today's world is no longer the world of yesterday and Thrump has an interest in drawing the necessary conclusions. The war of liberation will continue with or without him. Israel will be forced to fear international law and Netanyahu will have to serve his sentence emanating from the International Court of Justice incessantly. This is the common sense of history and this is what will drastically comfort international public opinion.

wow this is just an opinion video of sorts, but guess i'm proud to live in montreal. i own the last army surplus store here. 1423 st laurent. i love montreal as a city, the food is second to none for all of north america. um, weather is full winter during dec to feb. i also live near magog in the eastern townships which is beautiful.\ni've been to pei, love it there, great beaches and very quiet. never been to BC, and living here, i would never visit the middle of canada, just flat and boring and drugs are a big problem and homelessness. cabot trail in ( i did it on bicycle) is fabulous. quebec city, amazing.\ni'm a proud canadian and surely there are far worse countries in the world to live in. but when i retire full time , it will leave for a warmer climate (snow bird) in the winter. not florida, too busy and not nearly as nice as the Caribbean, i go to Curacao 1 month every winter. perfect weather and being dutch has great food and is safe island and beaches are second to none........

I wish he told that to all Muslims, to stay in their own land and not to leave their countries and go into Western or European Countries to trouble them. The world would be in peace.

Nothing is going to change as long as people vote for the established parties. Dominant politicians are not interested in transformational change. Same things are happening in New Zealand. Jacinda Ardern when she was Labour PM promised such change. True, Covid interrupted her premiership but even if it hadn't things would have largely stayed the same. No wealth tax or capital gains tax, no reduction in inequality and child poverty from Labour then. Solution, no idea. Perhaps voting Green given the problems facing the whole world?

You better back down , you better surrender because trump is God's plans for this country. So why don't you scatter and run because your wicked plans to ruin this nation is over , your being exposed even the hunter Biden crap. Your gong to go to jail hunter , New evidence. Will open the case. You think you can mess with a prophet. You better back off . You barked up the wrong tree and then your Kamala toe came against the name of Jesus. Bad bad move . I would never curse my savior. You people have horror for eternity. You better surrender and give your life back to Jesus before it's too late. ?

Stop with the stupid, Mexico has a GNP $1,898,000,000,000.00, THE US GNP is $29,000,000,000,000.00, in a tariff war Mexico would go bust immediately, broke, busted, zip, Nadia. But she is a woman and women represent only 3% of executive positions in the world for a reason.

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!

This channel is trash. What do we send to Mexico that it would hurt us in terrified? CNN is out of touch. Plus I love when they say mexico helped the US with the border. Yes the helped the migrants come in. It's time to go. This channel should be bought by musk as well and get all these so called news reporters on the unemployment line

Americans dont really do agriculture work. Their not going to sit their and pay the average american 20 to 25 dollars an hour and keep food prices the same. How are they going to round up 15 million illegals anyways? How are they going to find all 15 million illegals? Their not going to. People are complaining about the price of eggs and pork and i would love to see the price of these things when they have to start paying people 20 to 25 dollars and i almost guarantee people would stop eating pork or eggs.

In the full video of the customer did not get the food and was banned from calling the service or using the service at all anymore\nThe reason why the guy was so calm is because he did not want to lose his job, but he was definitely not trying to give the order up. That’s why he didn’t just take the money and leave. He wanted to make sure that the customer would not going to use the service anymore and not get his food. \nWe stayed on the phone remain calm, and they told him he could bring the order back without getting in trouble \nSo the customer got banned got told to fuck off and didn’t get his food \n\nTo anyone who sees us if you were like this person in the video (the customer)\nKeep in mind not everybody is going to stand for this or act so calmly \nEntitlement is a crazy thing \nBut it can definitely get you hurt

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.

I see no flaw in their logic,\n\nThe truth is that I believe that the bad strategies implemented by the government, and the lack of regulation, harmed everyone who wants to do things well. I don't want to offend anyone, but it is totally illogical that a country as popular as Canada has not put these measures in place before, which are not brutal, they are basic. \n\nThink that most countries in the world do not allow an international student to work 24 hours a day. Furthermore, the level of fraud for admission to colleges and universities is very high, many students do not even go to classes...and do not even pass the language filters. Added to the agencies that promoted the lie that if you studied two years at college, you would get the PR :S, NOBODY DID ANYTHING.

Mexico ?? said something like that they would stop the caravan. Mexico can't do anything about that. \nMexico does not have the same thing as the United States DICKTATER ship. They have no gear, no training, and they don't have the force .\nThey have no imagraton and no transport to move millions of people. Mexico has no jurisdiction to be able to get people on private land sold out to England and other countries anymore. Mexico has been abolished, and now, for outside intervention and a handful of trillion dollar Mexicans go to jail. And a couple of security forces from different countries. occupy the Mexican border.\nCome on, get them out of their. Replace the Mexican border patrol. That doesn't exist. With an actual security force from the global community ?

In the more than 80 applications and several interviews I underwent to land my 1st job in Canada, I started to notice something: I was primarily being contacted by people who had migrated to Canada at some point in their lives. Although I saw this as an act of solidarity, it also made me question why I hadn’t been contacted by more Canadian-raised hiring managers and recruiters. Today, I think I may have at least a part of the answer.\nAfter a few months surrounded by co-workers who recently migrated to Canada, and interacting mainly with Canadian customers, the colliding of cultures has become evident to me. Letting a person finish their sentence before jumping to give a solution, asking “may I?” before taking an article off someone’s hands, and true active listening, all these things go a long a way in building relationships. Doing the opposite causes friction and even arguments where customers explicitly say: “Please don’t talk over me, listen to me first.”\nPutting myself in the shoes of a hiring manager who is culturally Canadian, knowing that Canadians are very risk averse and kept to themselves: Why would I stir the pot in the workplace by bringing in a foreign worker who may have internalized habits that are seen as rude and abrupt?\nIt’s not only about English skills, degrees, who does things faster, etc., but cultural awareness. If you don’t take the time to learn about the culture of the place you are migrating to and/or expect that locals welcome habits that could be perceived as rude and shocking to most Canadians, you are going to limit your network to only people in your cultural group - which will definitely hinder opportunities for growth. Don’t make the mistake of assuming that everybody thinks and acts the same as you do.

just curious to those fleeing the country, where will you go? the only option that is viable if you can do remote work where you can save quite a bit would be thailand or somewhere in south america. the US? good luck with medical bills.

Please dont put down Canada, I worked for a guy that was from Brazil, he would always complain about Canada, he had a successful business here. One day I finally had enough, Told him to go back to Brazil, And then QUIT on the spot in front of staff, I felt so good, I said what all the others always thought .

Stay in your own damn country and try to make IT BETTER instead of running like rats to the U.S. illegally and in doing so just make OUR lives worse! It's not our fault your country is crap or our responsibility to give you handouts! Stop being parasites! We don't want you here or need you here and its wonderful to hear that they are arresting you people and sending you back where you came from! There are millions of Americans who wanted an armed border that would open fire on you illegals regardless of your origin! The fact that your breaking our laws to begin with makes you undesirable unwelcome unwanted enough! Then you want handouts, support blah blah blah, NO! GO HOME! STAY HOME! NOBODY IS RESPONSIBLE FOR TAKING CARE OF YOU PEOPLE! NOBODY WANTS TO BE FORCED TO TAKE CARE OF YOU PEOPLE! WE DON'T CARE WHAT YOU WANT, YOU CANT HAVE IT!

Both countries had a progressive govt which would have accepted them, they didnt need to sneak in. They chose to go in like they are criminals. That govt is changing the policy now due to gangs going to either country to set up their crime activities and migrants literally stampeding and physically fighting their way over the border knowing there were not enough border police to stop them.\nThey took advantage of the situation, the leniency will end.

A tariff from Mexico to the US, will skyrocket the price of millions of products such as tomatoes, avocados, strawberries, onions, garlic, ginger, bananas, pineapples, mushrooms, potatoes, and more fruits, vegetables, tortillas, and more products that are products from Mexico. Those tariffs guess who’s going to end up paying for that? Of course us. I voted for Trump but that would be such a stupid movement from Trump’s administration. Why can’t we spend more money to protect our borders instead of financing Israel’s and other countries’ wars at the expense of us American taxpayers?

That's not.\n Our problem here in Canada. If they cannot afford it, they come here and our kids and grandkids do not have jobs. They commend our country and don't adhere to our laws. If we were to go to their country and spread our faith, we would be beheaded. Don't come here and wave your swords.

If they don’t take care of the cartel, their drugs goes to show you they’re sold out to the cartels and they say it’s Trump‘s problem and send the US military thank you forces to take out every cartel in Mexico New Mexico favor we got over 300,000 missing children from our southern border The cartels dropped them off at our border. Some of them went into sex trafficking. Someone went into slavery I don’t wanna talk about what happens to the others just children a lot of them where Guatemalan after Kamala Harris with Guatemala Guatemala radio was telling kids how to get to America I wish people would study into what exactly going on in our country instead of leaving the propaganda resent our kids off to college to be a doctorate by college professors to believe is the right way to go things are gonna change and change your abruptly. We’re going back to the constitutional Republic, the deep state, a.k.a. the corporation one world order is getting out of Dodge. I just hope they leave quietly and there’s no lost life by pushing Putin into doing something stupid and vaporizing, cities and country folks dying of slow death of radiation for evening Joe Biden said he would do everything in his power to keep Trump out of the lighthouse Jamie Raskin wanted to talk democrat said he would rather create a civil war to keep Donald Trump out of life. The red and Chuck Schumer has almost cost us the life of the Supreme Court, Justice woke his no more and I can’t wait for the new beginning to start.

Tariff this Tariff That! WOW prices are going to increase? Who would’ve thought ??

I would just go in and change the locks. Why should I follow the slow process to evict her when she is the criminal? Let her go through the slow process to sue me under this non-sense of a law for improper eviction.

maga supporters are like the ex wife. She got away with massive fraud in court. I thought the fraud was so obvious that the judge would get ticked that she was using him and the court to implement the fraud. The judge, like maga supporters ignore the obvious and go for the illusion. Its been a very difficult time watching my son get used as a prop in fraud activities. Non maga are being used by maga to support fraud. If maga had to pay all on its own, there would be no money to work with. maga is irresponsible like the ex but the ex used fraud to get the judge to order me to pay for her faked problems. maga is using fraud to get the rest of us to pay for their attempt to alienate us from freedom. It seems some ppl crave power (or live like rats in fear) and will destroy their own lives to obtain the imaginary power. Its imaginary because they will always be susceptible to the next con. God, give me the strength to survive and thrive in these difficult times.

If US want tariff, mexico is no match to US. Mexico would tank right up when it play against US. Look at china now when US pull out. Trump only need mexico to stop the illegal and do some show and you will be safe from Tariff. Trying to act tough is not going to do wonder to mexico.

in my work we have mostly immigrated east Indians from various area's 5 white males and 2 white females the rest in our local branch out of 47 employees are non white keep in mind though that is a ground level branch number up higher are wealthier white manager positions were the ratio is primarily white bodies but one thing i hear them saying a lot is that they do not like going back home that when they do they are targeted as wealthy off the planes and are stalked and targeted apparently one thing i never would have thought is they also say there is a ton of roaming mob crime in india that girls and men are targeted who are of native blood and that even in there homes they are not safe so i mean if we bring in majority young males from these regions you have to think that bad habits come with them i would probably disagree if the majority were young girls mostly because i dont think any culture has a surplus of problematic immigrating young women it just doesn't happen

My avocados are going to be very costly\nIf he ate avocados he would understand but that’s to healthy for him. ?

If yall would give America time to re industrialize the prices will go down. But trump needs to take the money from tarriffs and give it to businesses to build new factories, creating more jobs.

Four more years of this nonsense ?. I wish Trump would just shut up ! Talk, talk, talk. First it is going to be 100% or 200% now 25%. Talk, talk, talk !!!

In 1930 American politicians decided to significantly increase tariffs \nand 25 other countries immediately responded by imposing significant tariffs\non American products and the trade war made the depression significantly worse.\n\nTrump's trade war won't likely lead to a depression but it will make things \nworse for almost everyone.\n\nExpect higher inflation, economic stagnation and also economic disruption \nas American companies can't suddenly and magically create new production \nto replace imports and can't do it as cheaply or they would already have been doing that\nand American exporters are going to face tariffs and sanctions imposed \non their products by other countries.\n\nThe extremely integrated car manufacturing industries in the United States, Canada and Mexico could be thrown into chaos.\nAn average car part crosses a border about 8 times during production.\nHow the heck do high tariffs deal with that standard car production situation?\n\nTrump would know all this if he thought about history or\nabout how the North American economy works or thought at all\nbut thinking is not something that appeals to Trump.\nInstead he just spouts out whatever random idea pops into his head \nand calls it policy.

If tariffs costs are not paid by the country they're placed on, then why would she care? It doesn't affect Mexico, it affects the US, so why not just say, go ahead you're not gonna hurt us in anyway and it's not gonna stop migrants or Americans from carrying drugs over the border. Trump needs to look at our laws if he wants to stop Americans from being drug mules..

No market is bigger than capitalist America. They can do what they want but socialism does'nt run without handouts. In Canada's case its the immigrant $$$ from saver, bigger, better economies and capitalist Greatness of America. Even with all that help Canada's GDP per capita is going down for 10 yrs. Without that help, worthless Canada would be below Thailand today which is also the rightful place for an unproductive country with extortionist socialists running the country

How life would be different if you idiots had reported with this intensity on the Biden administration. With all the nonsense that they put us through these four years. You have people have no credibility…just shut up and watch the business man go to work.

If you guys want to know what is actually going on the border then want don't you send a news crew and actually investigate like a proper news channel would? You know, actually investigate for the truth. Problem is, you guys are interested in the truth because it would mean coming face to face with your beloved Presidents Biden's and Harris's failures and a deconstruction of your own narrative.

Yea if it were up to cnn they would let whoever into our country, maybe they should go after the cartels money and we would have plenty money to deport whoever we need to——- Mexico also needs the USA and the money we give them

You people still don't understand. Trump is the President. He's not a Nazi. He's not racist. He's not going jail like this network and all the others said he would. He's playing chess with these 3rd world countries at the moment. Joe and Harris have done nothing for this country in the past 4yrs.

American voters are so dumb they are NEVER going to get lower prices, if they did it would cause an economic disaster for our country.

Would be hilarious if mexico, canada, europe and china collectively tell the u.s to go to hell and cut all ties and trades to them.

Ok for those who don’t understand how tariffs work thats tax for American companies to import goods here ok and the other countries sale their products at the whatever cost they set, once Americans pay the tax tariffs then Americans companies increase their cost to recover ad make up their loss costing Americans higher prices. And for the idiots that think manufacturing companies would come back,they will not bc other countries good are going to still be cheaper and would not like to pay additional taxes or have their business growth collapse

It's too frighin cold. Why would anyone go there at all?
