My family came from Canada from India over 100 years ago we came over here legally we tried to assimilate I think what really bothers me now is that these new international students are giving all of us a bad name most of them cheat on their English exams back in India, and this is a known fact most of them can’t speak English and hence why they fail the colleges here expecting to be passed automatically. they work over 40 hours a week illegally and lie about it The government is subsidizing international students but they are taking jobs away from our students. We paid taxes my entire life and my son applied for over 100 jobs and got nothing because every single job is taken over by international students they are they are abrasive. They are entitled, they cannot seem to understand how assimilation works. They are so entitled and they feel they can protest out in the streets when they dont get PR. They came on a student visa and were expected to go home. They are now complaining and protesting at this point they all need to be sent home because this is ridiculous, PR should be handed out as needed not automatically and right now there are so many Canadians without jobs so we don’t need more workers. I also work in healthcare most of the students or their families come in don’t have appropriate healthcare and we end up paying millions of dollars in healthcare bills because of them, we have had families come visit their international students with no healthcare having strokes costing us healthcare workers and the government over $1 million. We don’t have the infrastructure for these students to stop. The government needs to stop subsidizing. The government needs to stop handing out PR like they’re handing out candyscamin India and here charged enough is enough. I will def be writing to my politician

There is a problem, but the solution isn't blaming immigrants for coming here. The lack of investments in public services and infrastructure for nearly 50 years now is the reason we're here. Neoliberal policies by both liberal and conservative governments is what got us here, not immigration. Canada actually has enough wealth. It's just not being spent on the right things because it's being hoarded by the wealthy and squeezed out of us by the billionaire class.

I'm Indo-Canadian, and I want you out to. It used to be quality immigrants from India. The US now is taking them all (top CEOs, entrepreneurs, researchers and scientists there are of Indian origin if they aren't Chinese). But in Canada we're opening the doors to the worst of India - Sikhs and Sikhism (fanatical bearded towel heads). You won't be happy here eating crap from food banks and living crammed in small flats. I blame Trudeau and his plan for more Sikhs and having them throughout the government agencies including police and defense, a severe terror risk to both nations.

Racism against Indians is increasing. I was born here and they treated us like dirt then and treat us like dirt now. Student visas are just an excuse to be racist. They feel emboldened because we don't speak up. We don't speak up cause Indians are too busy separating themselves from each other. The separation is the reason you see so many racist comments towards Indians and nobody else. Even the ignorant Indians try and put all the blame on one group like Punjabis or Gujus. In Canada, you're just another brown person in the racist eyes. ?\n\nGood luck out here, stay strapped if you feel like your life is in danger. Do research on legal knives to carry. A lot of white Canadians have stuff like that on them, take my word as a brown person who was born in Canada.\n\n\n\nn

To set an absolute example.Get started on these particular people immedietly. Pack up n GO! We owe you nothing. Now git, your welcome to re-apply when your HOME! FOLLOW THE RULES! Don't falsify your intent or exploit our system. Learn from your mistakes. Learn English or French it's our language. Speak it in public. Your entitled behavior is pissing us off. P.s. Stop defacating on our beaches. Stop leaving soda bottles of urine everywhere.The only misunderstanding is some immigrant people thinking they have a say. You are not a Canadian. Your some entitled, ignorant people trying to garner support for your plight to manipulate our system with your sneaky exploiting behaviors. It's not what we're looking for thank you! Bob tell em what he's won! Sure! You'll fly non-stop in coach to your destination where you'll live a life of regrets in the desert sun for screwing up your 1 in a million chance of becoming a citizen. Where you'll remember the privilege of not knowing how to drive yet on your own roads paid for by you.

I am an immigrant from England. It took us five years to get immigration. We had to prove we had money in the bank would bring jobs to the economy go for medical physicals we were watched we were followed. These people are not the same as me. I worked hard to be here, I had to prove who I was, and I had to provide jobs to the country, I don’t come here with my hands out. We are not the same stop pretending you’re on my level.

Its. Happening. In. All. Western. Countries... So. Why. Are. They being. Told. To. Go. Back ,go. To. You're. Own. Universities, give. Us. Our. Rental. Homes. Back our. Uni places back ? Whats. The. Story??

the Government shouldnt have exploited them. For shame on us.\nBut they cant re write our laws and then be the big dawg on the block.

I don't know but we're next.. Don't you get it there after us what's going on in London Canada oh we're next. And Jamie ruskins should be in jail for lying and covering up the Biden and administration

I’m not surprised. Israel has been unaliving the Muslim community for decades and the US has been funding that. It’s\nterrible what out government has been doing abroad, and we need to inform ourselves better to understand why this is happening. We’re not the innocent ones ?

I hope indians will reflect of what they're doing, like indian students, i see some of them don't pay on the bus, i had experienced when we were waiting in line in bus station, i see them cutting line, they were lucky because Canadians are polite, and just let it go, one time an indian male driver parks his car on where the bus pass through in bus station, in tim Hortons most of the time they give us the wrong order, and i always had a stomach Ache when i eat at tims, but i never had problems when i order from other coffee shops, only at tims, and in our neighborhood they throw their garbage on the side of train rails, and it was clean before the indian immigrants move in in our neighborhood? Canada is Ruined? but i know there are good indians out there who follow the rules, i hope their bad habits will stop its ruining the indian community

At this rate the US is going to be just like Venezuela. This makes me sick. Their country is f’d up and they’re coming to f ours up. Go on keep letting them in TRUMP 2024

Don't come here to the US. We're filled to capacity thanks to Jim Crow Joe and Cacklin Kamala trying to replace us.

Vince go to any Brampton construction job site where Indians are working on and you’ll see “students” international students working there. Then these so called students that work at retail and other places make it seem like they’re doing you a favour by doing their job. If they’re working in the service industry they’re extremely rude as if they’re doing us a favour by being here. We don’t want them here, get them out!

if you're Indian, stay out of Canada. None of us want you here.

don't you wanna bring it back to the old days where all ya guys had to complain about was us natives and how we're upholding the government to our contract/treaty?

The banner says Fix Your Problem DON'T BLAME US, yes and that's what exactly they're doing to fix the problem is to send you back home

Obviously you're going to the US. That is where 95% of Canadians are moving to.

This is the clearest one so far that let us know why and how those massive increasing of so called international students and the overflow of non-Canadian workers in so many entry level positions. They’re taking\n advantage of Canadian’s kindness and hospitality.

Sorry US. \nTrudeau messed it up. Now we have so many of them they’re spilling over the borders. \nFunny thing is even India doesn’t want these shining gems back. Lol.

If you want to come to Canada \nBecome Canadian by culture respectfully.\nMost Indians cut cirners and dont have respect for our Country.\nThey show mass discrimination against Canadian ls and do not respect us.\nThis isnt just Indians.\nThis is \nPhilippine People \nRussian People \nPakistani People \nPalestinian People \nNigerian People \nKenya People\n\nNot all not all not all but most immigrants, around 99% are horrible nasty people who hate Canadians, especially the white ones and want to rip this country apart into the same crap hole where they came from.\nAll of the countries I named are objectively garbage in most every way.\nIf yhey are not then go back to your country and live your lives there.\nStop coming over here and whining and complaining.\n99% of you dont ever celebrate Christmas for Christmas sake.\nImagine when the majority of our country becomes foreigners.\nNo more Christmas \nAlso our governments are catering to their insanity at the cost of our lively hood.\nImmigrants cone first when it cones to government funding.\nWe dont have the housing required \nMost immigrants are not becoming carpenters.\nMost Indians are taking all the min wage jobs away from Canadians.\nThey are in security for some reason.\nEasy lazy wirk with authority l.\nAmazing eh.\nI love Canada ?? \nI dont love Evil.\nAnd if you represent evil you're most definitely not welcome.\nWhy come to our country and try to change it.\nIf you dont like it l, leave.\n\nYou nasty immigrants hate on Canadian ls like you're entitled to our stuff.\nYoure not\nGo away you lying nasty dirty people.\nSatan is your daddy and you lie lie lie all the time \nConstantly a victim while getting free stuff.\nIts our stuff not yours losers.\nYour country isn't go9d enough because you are all cowardly losers.\n\nBETA IMMIGRANTS

If the US vote in Kamala the numbers would be higher, praying that our cousins across the border vote in Trump, as he will disrupt these western non leaders agenda, and send these people back to their respective countries. There're not adding any value, every single western country has and is going through an economic burden because of this.

Sounds like us here in the United States! We're all being used and lied to...

WHo else feels like a stranger in their own country...? Now they're turning on Canadians, and giving us the stink eye- in OUR country? they really need to go home

i have a few bad experiences with east indians ( pls. note am not hating, just expressing my dissapointment.\n1) i went to Tim Horton with my 2 other friends and ordered coffe, we waited 5 minutes one of my friend got his coffee after 5 mins.\nmy other friend 8 mins. and already at this moment they're giving coffees from people who were behind us... which is east indians - 10 mins. i still didn't get my coffee and i asked them twice about my order and these people behind me were already enjoying their coffee...i finally got my coffee when my friends almost done with theirs.\nI barely go to Tim Hortons anymore.\n2) Domo gas station - i asked for premium and the served me regular gas ?\ni don't know if the're paying attention to their job or just intentionally doung it.

The Conservatives kicked the can down the road on foreign buyers/housing/money laundering as well. It is also a global epidemic. Re-just as easy to launder money? It's not. So these guy just lost my attention. Point your fingers at both parties and don't forget the Canadians who sold for ridiculous prices and thought they were winning. Corporations buying up vast units needs to be stopped. JT is on his way out. It shall be very interesting to see if the new party stops the Corporations and foreign ownership. Here in Thailand the Govt is smart enough not to let us buy up all their land and units.

OMG that’s why they’re here in the US all over! Personally I experienced being shouted by an Indian when I called a car insurance company, imagine I never shouted by white people here in the US but an Indian WTF!

Next video should be on South korea,japan, Singapore.... they're very small in size nd population from us but they're still so better ...we need to learn from them

They're NOT students. The student visa is one of many scams Indians are using to invade Canada by the millions. The government has let them collapse the country. Now that they have wrung this orange dry, they are spilling out of the cupboard and coming to the US for their next expoitation destination

I guess you’re so used to the insanity in the US that you don’t see it as much as a Canadian coming down to visit. The US political climate is nuts, and scary. Such a deep divide. It’s sad. Years ago people could have civil conversations about political views.\nIn Canada you don’t have to worry about which place to move to based on political affiliation. \nX- Pat here. I moved from California to British Columbia years ago, and at this point have lived here longer than in the US. I will never move back to the US. I do enjoy visiting on holiday to Florida and California but always happy to come home to Canada. So grateful to live here. \nBy the way, my mom lived in a very safe community in Florida yet the highschool a few blocks away had a mass shooting ?

Re your statement of employer health care, my sister in law in the US had employer (teacher) insurance and son had to have surgery, even with insurance they owed thousands in hospital/surgeon costs.

Canadians, I'm an Indian, living in US for the past 5 years in the Midwest. I'll be going back to India for my startup. I've not visited Canada and not planning to. There isnt much to see anyway...\n\nImmigrants from Punjab region were encouraged for a long time against all others for a long time... The second and third generation of them are politically active and strong. All they care about is Khalistan and nothing else and they're close to realising it first in Canada. The chickens have come home to roost...\n\nYou need them to work in agricultural fields and you can't control them. Enjoy the fun together.....

The Indians coming to Canada over the past 5-10 years are the absolute bottom of the barrel. \n\nDo not compare them to those who migrated to the US & Canada over 20 years ago. Those Indians don’t even want to be associated with them and many are now expressing their embarrassment & disgust. \n\nPeople are fed up with the sheer numbers flooding ??.. they’re bringing their caste system with them, they are also racist against others and especially black people, they are known for being exploitative against even their own people, they’re known for being scammers & cheats. \n\nIndia’s population is over a billion. Youth unemployment is ridiculously high. Rural & urban poverty, squalor & filth is high …. It’s no wonder that they are desperate to leave & the “immigration consultants” are selling them lies about life in paradise. Many who come were clearly NOT properly vetted as they are dangerous criminals. Most of the “students” have no intention of returning to India and came to stay indefinitely & feel entitled to do so. Crazy !!!

I would leave if I could. I actually regret choosing Canada over the US. If you're young, ambitious, and healthy, I advise you not to waste your time coming here.

JT's wrong decision and policy created hatred, discrimination, unfair means, unemployment, poverty, and many more issues!! God save us! I pray he doesn't get re-elected next year

Part of the problem is our politicians becoming so corrupt working With your countrymen getting your kickbacks from a temporary foreign worker program. a temp work a program that's been going on for over 30 years so I hardly think it's temporary don't you? they don't realize how pissed off their constituents are. And trust me and once we actually figure out the level of your corrupting our institutions you're going to pay for what you've done because there's obviously been some type of conspiracy going on everyone knows it. when there are so many coincidences that there's no longer a rationale to judge it coincidence There's little point in US pretending that everything is hunky-dory and hey it must be just simply a misunderstanding no it's you guys sabotaging Canada and other parts of the West. Indians don't believe your little propagandist in Chief here she's just being played by Modi's puppeteering little fingers. You know it's time we get our house in order in the Anglosphere is actually for reestablishing the British Empire or maybe an angle Empire of sorts with America Australia Canada New Zealand and all the rest of the gang and actually put some order back into this world that actually makes sense. we should have never abandoned our Empires and colonies we should actually kept them even stronger. Time to lock down our intellectual property again and not share any of future developments anymore. No more sharing such valuable with such ingrates. Lock down and do as much innovation as we can in the coming decades so that we can make centuries of progress in a few decades and then maybe get the advantage back again and then tell these people were never actually letting our guard ever again. let's make it a capital offense to share any intellectual property or technologies from the West to these assholes from now. Isn't it very curious that you won't talk embracing globalization free trade how quickly the West loss control over everything that I had and it's awesome under its aegis. How quickly companies like Nortel were totally destroyed and then we have a weird quickest tendency of something like Huawei. With obviously knock off the products that took a hell a lot of research and development for companies like Nortel who actually did the work to make. Let's see how well they're actually able to innovate when they actually no longer have access to the cookie jar. It pisses me off like we've done so much on this planet to actually push Humanity forward into a much more modern era where would be nice to travel to the Stars mind you like Country like we are nothing but Scoundrels and we had nothing but yeah. When you guys need the next revolutionary processor or whatever don't come with running to us because yeah I think we're about done in the West

They weren’t brought in for “labour shortages”; more than 25% of Canadians now live in poverty because of Trudeau and 100% of them living in tents are CANADIANS. We didn’t take anyone from the UK, or Ireland, or Scotland, or Norway, or Australia, or Iceland… no, we only took people from India, China (who do not like us!), and Iran/afghanistan (who really don’t like us). Gee, that’s weird. \n\nHe’s only reversing it because the UN called it slave labour and they’re not voting for him. People are beyond p*ssed with Trudeau. Nobody likes the guy. We need to put this very dark time behind us. Trudeau is a complete idiot

I would consider watching the whole video if you turned the music off. I can't take it seriously when you've got mood music continually going in the background. Plus, my attention is divided between trying to hear what you're saying and the music going on. What are you trying to offer? Music for people to enjoy or a commentary of information you would like to share? Some of us have a hard time when you can't decide what you're trying to present.\nIn other words, if you want to share information, then share that information without distracting background noise.\nIf you want to share background noise, then just have a video with only music..\nI cannot comment on your video because I won't watch it with the background noise.

That’s so sad… I am mexican (I know what everybody think about us regarding inmigration ?) \nBut, I disagree with all those inmigration programs, I always said that If you’re moving to a different country, you have to behave and live like the locals do. I totally disagree with illegal and mass immigration, All countries should have closed borders and carefully examine what kind of people are entering the country, just look at how Europe or the United States is, full of immigrants and immersed in violence and bad customs.\nWell people, that’s what woke laws and minister do… thanks Trudeau ?

My US work permit got approved yesterday! Ive lived in Canada for 29 years but it started going steeply downhill around 2018 and the 2 years of covid were rough. I miss it a lot but the costs and constant fear of getting my house and car broken into, as well as watching my tax dollars go down the drain has been tough. Also I feel like people are hustling so hard they’re not as happy. It makes me sad as well

I work for a large management consulting firm. Absolutely no one in my office wants to work for German clients, even for a few days. We're professionals, we don't need to feel welcome and we don't need you to like us. But for god's sake, if you paid for our service and call yourself a global company, please do speak English during the meeting you invited us to.

There are no policy failures happening. Extreme left governments around the western world including the US, Australia, New Zealand, Great Britain, and Canada’s liberal Trudeau government are INTENTIONALLY dismantling our societal infrastructure ... economic, social, health, and spiritual. We're being pushed closer and closer to the RCMP's statement of “expecting civil unrest”. Why the RCMP and the Canadian military refuse to intervene in this atrocity and protect our country and its citizens from attack within our own borders, bewilders me.

And unfortunately you and others like you will still scapegoat certain people based on their looks. For some of us, it doesnt matter if we agree with you, we're still the enemy, still the alien - all while youre perfectly fine accepting poor uneducated people from other parts of the world - because they dont offend your eyes.\nI regret growing up here, and unfortunately I have no home to call my own anymore.\nEven if your familys homeland is being torn apart currently, its still some form of home.

I didn't think I could hate Blackrock more than I already did, but now I realize they're in part responsible for the sorry state of my country. Feels pretty hopeless between our corrupt government and international corporations exploiting us.

I’m a Korean American who has lived here my entire life since birth. I have lived in many other places and the thing about immigrants is they ALWAYS share the same traits wherever they go. \nI live in an affluent area and whenever the immigrants from poor countries come in they all do the same things…throw trash and litter everywhere, the attitude of “I made it just like you therefore I deserved to be treated like a king”..telling them to turn down the music at 2am and not understanding why so instead you are met with argumentative resistance instead of them just saying “hey we’re sorry won’t happen again, we don’t want to be that guy in this neighborhood. Our apologies” but nope. They continue to do it night after night and the audacity to even get angry. The crowding of all of their families in disrepspectful ways such as cutting in line while everyone else is patiently waiting, if there is free samples of food, they will group up and annihilate whatever they are offering not even caring about anyone else but their own. Leaving a very bad image for us East Asians when people from the red flag dragon nation come in droves. Being extremely loud in public while talking about petty nonsensical things most times but they yell and laugh not caring whoever else is around. Even if the room is quiet they have zero situational awareness, never putting things back when they grab them from stores or gym etc. they expect someone to pickup and do this for them. The entitlement ?….if something is on sale they don’t understand to take just one or two, they have to take the entire box so no one else can get it. \nI his list never ends and they don’t understand why people don’t want them living in their countries. It’s not just Germany it’s everywhere. \nHow do you expect people to like you when you make it difficult to do so.

I've only ever been to Winnipeg. I did see that the country was friendly, but it was a bit empty. We drove there, so we saw the countryside as well. It was pretty spread out. \n\nI do agree that the USA is very different depending where you are at. I grew up in rural Minnesota, and now live in Nebraska, so still pretty rural. The weirdest place in all of the US was Los Angeles. I do agree that there are clear borders between racial neighborhoods. One street was all Mexicans looking for work, and a block or two away was all Japanese in black pants/skirts and white shirts. like it was a uniform they're required to where or something. California is weird.

I don't think most people understand just how long and environmentally challenging the Canada-US boarder really is. In this video we're talking about only a very small section of the border along New York State and New England, but going west the boarder goes on for literally thousands of miles.\n\nBecause of the great distances and vast amount of wild land up north vs the population size on both sides of the border, it makes it almost impossible to actively patrol the entire length of the Canada-US border.\n\nThis is not just a problem on the US side of the border. Irregular crossings are also happening into Canada.\n\nThe best thing the two countries can do is to actively work together on this issue.

You're not like us

Alina , I was born and raised on a farm in Canada (Ontario) , I moved to US in 1987 , yes a life time ago. Best decision I ever made , I have traveled a ton and still would choose the US over any other country. Hope you find what you're looking for. Brian MacLeod, yep that's right another Highlander! cheers!

I believe we're born in a country for a reason and it's up to us to make it a better place. Only a coward leaves his country to live in another foreign place.
