I’m a Canadian citizen. I married a Jewish African woman. And helped her get her citizenship after we got married here in Canada. Then we stood outside in the -20 degrees c freezing cold in a long lineup of good people trying to get their citizenships like my wife, all legally obeying the laws of Canada. I’m white so it doesn’t mater our skin color or religion. Its about love and respect to the laws of our country. What I was talking about before is we here in Canada have been suffering from over taxation, extremely high rental rates, high food costs, greatly reduced medical care (My Mom died recently from lack of proper med care resources). They put her lonely dying body in the hallway where she was robbed of her cell phones, money, food and respect. Due to migrants and illegal immigrants overloading the beds and rooms pouring in from other countries. they drained our existing medical system resources and much more. Drug addicts who overdosed on Fentanyl they take first and push all other patients aside. Doctors take them first before helping a dying mother, father, brother or sister, infant and children pushed aside to save a drug addicts life first. I have been told many times this is also do to them taking care of the pouring in migrants and illegal immigrants using it all up. Where is love and justice? Yes, you failed us Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. You sold us Canadian citizens out and tossed us aside for your own agendas. You are a disgrace to Canada and we the people want you out of office.

If you are mad about illegal aliens getting deported, you are mad about lower prices for American citizens. If you call someone a traitor for voting for trump you are a traitor yourself. They are illegally coming into our country. If you US citizens illegally go into other countries you will probably die or be held for ransom. Why are y’all so happy and ready to pay for other people when we have families veterans homeless to feed the government uses illegal immigration as an excuse to spend government funds as an excuse to rebuild America for Democratic party votes That is absurd and insane. If you support this, you are a threat to democracy and a traitor to the US the Democrats committed treason over the last four years and if you look back in history, it goes on and on They have never helped the American people for American people. They aren’t for us. Wake up, realize who controls the media realize who is trying to consistently brainwash you realize who doesn’t want our country where our bills say in God we trust to no longer be a Christian country. Let’s go back to a wireless and Affordable country. Let’s not instigate fuel support and fun wars across the world let’s tax other countries and receive money from other countries rather than take from American citizens that can’t afford to be taken from. in God we trust God bless America

OMG, no housing no health care inflation is insane for Canadians. We do do not want or have room for any more so called migrants. They came by choice, send them packing. We can not and will not accept this. We as Canadians agree we can't afford 1 more, let alone thousands and thousands. We are not in a position to help even if they were truly in need of help and not just free handouts. This Government needs to stand up for the people who elected them. Trust me you will never get my vote again. Call an election and put an end to this madness.

Alll that land y’all got and you complain. Most of the people trying to get into canada are stuck in asylums waiting forever to get accepted. Y’all have plenty of money and resources considering your population is about 100 million or so. The land was stolen to begin with least you guys can do is offer help as well.

Call me racist or whatever.\nBut any Christian country should only help Christian people first or soon our country to become Hindu ir Muslim inside parliament we have staff with turbans wtf???? open minded country my ass.\nnow it's even inappropriate to say merry Christmas????‍?\nI wonder if it was the other way around, what would THEY do??

The problem with many countries is that immigration cannot simply be used as a fix for economic issues. Behind immigration are living, breathing people, not objects to solve problems temporarily. When economies are struggling, these individuals are invited to help rebuild and strengthen the system, often sacrificing a great deal to do so. However, once the situation improves, expecting them to leave behind everything they’ve built and return is unfair. They left their homes, worked hard, and contributed significantly — they deserve to be treated with respect and dignity, not as disposable solutions.

These have got to be the dumbest most delusional people on earth, it is not about legal or illegal status !!!! It has everything to do with their color !!! If it was thousands of folks from Greenland or Sweden or somewhere with white folks he wouldn’t even mention a border or illegal immigrants, when are people gonna stop being so stupid, Spanish people really screwed themselves big time with this one , especially for a man that hates them with such a passion. Remember last time when he was president and Puerto Rico had a hurricane and when people were asking him what he was gonna do to for them and he said that their own government needs to help them out because he did not know that he was their president as well and asked if they could trade Puerto Rico for Greenland ??? and than still blocked aid from them and said he did not want to give them handouts so they could lay around and be lazy, than when they finally said he needed to go because it didn’t look good , he went and stood there and just threw rolls of paper towels at them.

'systematic human rights abuses' or deciding to take care of the current actual citizens in need of help over absorbing more unskilled/trained people who put further stress on an already maxed out housing and social welfare system?

No. \nNo housing, health care is down to a crawl, the blatant disrespect towards Canada from immigrants. \nNo more.\nOur own goof of a PM admitted they made a bit of a mistake. He’s underplaying it. \nThat administration decided it was better to bring in countless immigrants with no plan for housing. \nNow I get 3 bags of groceries for over $200, rent is ridiculously high, water, heat, electricity, the list goes on.\n\nPeople that come from other countries also have the audacity to burn the Canadian flag and demand the government do something to help out their mother country. Want to do something for your past country? Go back there and volunteer your time or donate your money to relief organizations. Why is it the Canadian governments responsibility to help out a country before helping its own people!\nEnough is enough

I think the people of the United States should have lawsuit against Biden and Garland . They knew trump broke the law by organizing a coup on Jan 6th . Why did Biden not make garland prosecute trump. Biden and Garland ran a fraud on the American people we were fighting for democracy with our hands tied behind our backs because Biden and garland had control of the whole election if he would have been held accountable for his for the coup trump did on Jan 6th. Biden has the power to over ride this and can not be prosecuted for his actions Biden and Garland gave out democracy away we need to arm ourselves because our country was taken from us illegally someone an attorney someone had to help us or the blood will be on Biden and Garlands hands I am not willing to have my democracy taken illegally. Biden is not a hero he and Garland are traitors. It is the truth and I am not going to get assaulted by Republicans because Garland did not do his job. Send the mob to the person that let the country be taken from us. They came on tv we must save democracy when you already have it to them. I will never quit hopefully someone will be with me .

Just think folks once all of the illegals are out of our country we can start helping our homeless citizens. I know imagine that happening instead of catering to these illegals like they're royalty. I'm not just talking about Spanish I'm talking about Haitians-romanians,Chinese,africans,indians,EVERYONE who is here that's not supposed to be here. The executive order must give police a direct order from the commander and chief of the USA stating the police are ordered to ask for identification on all people's in this country on spot without cause. If you're a citizen you don't have anything to worry about if you're illegal you get deported within 24 hours after arrest NO NEED FOR A COURT CASE they will be put onto busses in every city loaded to the gills driven to the boarder and yes folks the NATIONAL GAURD might have to be used to show everyone how fkn serious we are about taking our country back. Enough is Enough democrats have proven they can't be trusted to run our country. What a nightmarish mess President Trump has to clean up.

Cuban in flroiduh are sonenof the most bigoted, selfish people. They won't even help their own when they first arrive. The North East Cubans are so much better. Not racist, always helping those in need. They do not forget where they came from. These clowns are children of parents who put the murderous dictatorship castro in power in 56. Now it's their children to put an academically and intellectually illiterate wanna be dictator in office. Can't make this up.

Cost to deport 1 million migrants 88 billion dollars. Sad I believe no one is going to see who is legal and just round everyone up because Trump has whipped everyone up in a frenzy. People forget he started a lot of the mess himself. May God help us all.

Republicans are such ultra hypocrites!!!....Fiscal responsibility only to cut funding of things that actually help people!!! BTW, Trump said at the beginning of his 2024 campaign that the wall was built and that he built more wall....So why are republicans going to give money to build the wall???

This is cruel and beyond that it's economically idiotic. Just wait until your grocery prices go through the roof. Farmers CANNOT find Americans to pick tomatoes, watermelons, etc. etc. American citizens just simply won't do the work.There are countless other industries that use undocumented workers. We are headed for a higher inflation again if this is implemented. How about immigration reform instead? How about work permits? How about paths to citizenship? We need the workers. Our legislators should do their job and come up with immigration reform rather than spend billions rounding up people and hamstringing our economy in the process. Maybe this move along with tariffs will help Americans realize that electing Trump was a mistake.

Who will be working at the turds golf resorts? I scared myself when my mind went to assignments of some being deported or blacks ? The text going around to students and many others may have used plantation instead of golf courses. It’s the people still in the dark that backed this, Elon isn’t alone. Which corporations donated. What about the rich people in the room that day he asked for money and promised them tax cuts. Personally I think with help from foreign tech they managed to cheat. Democrats have to investigate

Option 1 we gonna SPEND a HUGE amount of money to deport millions of people. \nOption 2 we filter out high crime immigrants and filter those out, after we charge $20000 each illegal for a 2 year visa and work permit as a trial time, and see how they contribute to society. \n Do you have any idea how much money will come in?? It will close 1/4 of your countries deficit.\n Look I'm an immigrant myself, and I was brought in legally as a kid. However because of the difficulties or the bureaucracy I was left out of status. The company I worked for (a delaship) wants me back, customers reach out to me directly because they trusted me and were happy with my performance as their advisor. But guess what I can't work, but I also can't be deported because my country of birth is at war. And I dont want to go back quite frankly because it's back there I'm gonna be an alien more than I am here. I finished a degree and paid my way through collage here I grew up here, and even though because of the problems of the immigration system I was constantly limited with basic equal opportunities I still see this as my home, and actually appreciate this country more than some people I know that were born here. \n Now again - I suffered plenty with being limited as an immigrant here and I was forced to work shitty heavy labor for years and years, I worked overtime plenty with no overtime pay and such (y'all just have no idea what immigrants life is) and in my case - I got stuck in that status for 2 decades. Where I could have had a high degree by now, I instead have been just busting my ass for peanuts. I never asked for any help from the government here even when I could have, never filed unemployment. \nAnd after all this you gonna deport me? Great fucking plan. Land of brave and opportunity ??

Legal immigration is important but the answer is to help legalize people who are already here, not deport them. Tf.

This idiot somehow thinks 47 will have larger margins in either the Senate or the House than he had in 2017: when he was completely unable to do any of those things. Also, he had actually competent people in both the House and Senate to help out (and also hinder him- when he he was being excessively stupid)- but those guys are gone. Having only loyalists left, he will suffer the effects of this loss. Title 42 restrictions required COVID: but no doubt a compliant SCOTUS will let the Great Pumpkin adopt them again- so maybe those will happen again. At least for a while.

So many people disconnected with the fact that while not all illegal citizens commit crimes, some of the ones who do aren't being held accountable. Many of them are residing in Sanctuary cities which protects them. In these sanctuary cities, when they commit a crime, sure they get arrested because that's a police officer's job, but then these criminals are immediately released. They can't be taken to court and they don't go to jail. Law enforcement need our help. They're getting discouraged because nothing is happening with these individuals.

These people can't help themselves when it comes to lying. He had the full funding last time to build the wall AND DIDN'T DO IT.

This idiot does not even know what he is talking about. They couldn't build that stupid wall last time because of how grossly expensive and impossible it is. Just as it's economically and fiscally impossible to deport 11 Million people. Trump is going to give the keys to Wormbrain RFK Jr, Spaceman Musk, and a host of other clowns in this circus to do whatever they please to run our government into the ground while he plays golf. And this MAGA moron senator will help dig the hole.

Russia helped Trump win with bomb threats and cheated by Elon giving money illegally to get votes. Why are the democrats letting this happen like they are a part of this. Seems all set up to happen and screw the American people.

Sick people- absolutely sick- Lord help us all

See 2 things that need fixing asap in America are social security and healthcare!\nHere we go again not helping the people that live here and trying to fix what cant be fixed since the 80s.\nRepublicans only care for helping the Wealthy and Big Corporations....

Even green card people will be removed. They want to white wash our country. You will be included. Democrats are the reason you're here. You just helped ruin that.

Yet he made it difficult to get citizenship for those who want it…but will deport them even while waiting for an approval. We have criminals here too. Stop using ‘immigration’ as a political stunt…these are innocent people. United States is built on immigration!\n\nWhy not help those countries who are suffering?, god knows we have a lot of money. Yet we will only help when they are in their own country, but be degraded if coming to the US!

Thinking if they stop spending money on immigrants the govt will spend money on the people instead. No. The Gop will be cutting taxes and not investing in any infrastructure or social spending.\n\nThey literally forgot that cuban refugees received a lot of help when they came over in boats. They got theirs.

I can tell all the comments on this panel were made by President Trump's haters. Love all God's Creation, but, please, watch out for your neighbor. Help everybody you can, including the animals. All these people don't have to be in this Country. They have their own, why can't they make their country a much better place for them and their families to live. Look at the way they are acting. They came as guest, now they are acting like they are the owners. Are you so blinded by hate for this man who loves his Country so much, that you can't see the danger we are in with this illegals in our Country? What are you going to do when you won't have a place to live with your families or can't pay for your needs, because there are no housing or jobs, because everything that belong to you were given to them? What about the crimes they are doing in our communities. They are not here to HELP US, they are here to take what it's ours and replace us. There's not any worse than a blind, who don't want to see. These people are destroying our Beautiful Country and all we can do is hate this President, who the only thing he wants to do is save it for us. He doesn't need anything, we do need and we have to take care of what we have or we will lose it. Oh, by the way, we can't go to their Countries and live there, because they hate Americans. And we are a bunch of ingrates and don't appreciate the Blessings that God Almighty gifted us and President Trump is one of those Blessings, in Jesus Name, AMEN.

Itll be nice to have things for american citizens once again and nkt helping people who didnt earn nor deserve it and come to this country and rip off and free load and talk down on being here bc real immigrants who came here legally most agree this is indeed the best country in the world and opportunity and as a person of color making things happen instead of making excuses the dems downing of the american peopel got old of vote for me because we're the way is dead the in last 16 years 12 of those years have been ran by dems and only gotten worse as the year goes on im a pround California born and raised but left their bc of how bad its gotten happy where im at for sure god bless america and trump MAGA ?

So its not arabs job to help the people based on his comments. But he said its easy just stop killing lol then why does hamas start a war against innocent people

It's not just Cubans. Anyone running from Communism gets helped out. Venezuelans get the same treatment. But what younger people don't know, the U.S. failed to defend Cuba from the communists. They were, as Kennedy was, betrayed from within. It cost thousands of Cuban lives. Cuba was an American territory for centuries, while still under Spanish control. And so America has always given them assistance when fleeing the communists. There's a responsibility there.\n\nThese are the children and grandchildren of that effort. They are definitely displaying American arrogance, not Cuban. Communists aren't allowed arrogance. \n\nBut this is a human nature problem. Even the Arab has an attitude, and his history is not Cuban.\n\nBut, yes, South Florida Cubans vote for trump. They're mortified of ANYTHING that smells of socialism. And Kamala and Walz reeked of it.

Well maybe if the Democrats didn’t open the border there would be less people to send back. Now they care about breaking up families? Where are all those missing children ? The Democrats used taxpayers money to bring illegals here and to house them. The fact that they helped them to get here and left the border open so they could illegally come in our country they should also be punished. If they want to come here do it legally!

I am sick to death of media cherry picking facts they want to share. Oh poor immigrants. I am sorry, if this harsh but America can't fix the world and we aren't responsible for those from other countries. It really annoys me that all we hear is poor immigrants and immigrants rights. Sice Biden has taken office the housing crisis has gotten out of the control. Why? Simple math, you move in billions of people, equal population what you already have, but can't increase housing, they have to go somewhere. With the government helping migraints, more is going to them than our own. What is happening is they are pushing out people in migraint held cities and displacing existing residents. So those disbled , elderly, veterans and drug addicted people who are being displaced are being forced to smaller communities that don't have the infrastructure in place to cope with so many displaced people. Then you end up with a huge issue of Homeless people trying to live in Tents in the middle of winter. j You have a vast number of elderly women taking to van life because they can't afford to live any other way. Would you like to your Grandma living in Van, constantly on the go? YOu are being UNAmerican in your news reporting, when you fail to give fair reporting and do equal amount of investigating into who this actually affects amount the American people. Far as I am concerned you need to be shut down, because you are enemy of the US.

Comment section proves Democrats are truly really dump. No helping them. People who voted for Trump knew his plan about deporting illegals. How is that a crime? If you are so upset, swap places since you already loath him. TDS must a real pain in the ass.

Trump may have won the 2024 election, will be sworn in on Jan 20, 2025 to become the 47th U.S. President, but Trump isn’t my president. Allow me to explain. There are certain attributes that define a U.S. president. A U.S. president places the citizens of this country ahead of his own personal interests. Trump doesn’t do that (hasn’t done that). Trump is self serving. On Jan ’21, Trump became an insurrectionist. Many citizens and police officers were injured and one police officers lost his life. According to the Constitution (the Supreme Court disagrees with me), Trump incited citizens to overthrown the certification of the 2020 election. Insurrection is one of the lowest acts any American can do, let alone a U.S. President. Trump states that the “insurrection” falls under immunity for “official acts”. Since when is “insurrection” an “official presidential duty”? Trump is a known Master Liar. This is beyond a moment when a president estimates, guesses and exaggerate numbers, figures and facts. Trump just lies – over 2k+ lies. Trump cannot be trusted in telling Americans the truth. Every time Trump opens his mouth, a lie flies out! Trump doesn’t appear to be able to help himself. One lie after another. Spreading the lie that the 2020 election was “stolen” and not providing legal evidence is an unforgivable act that Americans should #NEVER forget. MAGA, selected GOP, Christian Nationalists don’t appear to be troubled that Trump cannot tell the truth. To me, the truth strengthens the bond of trust – I have NO Trust for Trump! MAGA, Christian Nationalists and some selected GOP – I may use big words that you don’t comprehend such as: Liar, Convicted Felon, sexual misconduct, Insurrection, Fraud, election interference, Unauthorized Possession of classified documents. These are some, not ALL, of the words that defines Trump and his actions. These things do NOT appear to cause any concerns with the 71.2m people who cast their vote in the Nov 5th ’24 presidential election. Trump had unauthorized possession of classified material. (I am not certain what Classified Material Trump possessed, but if these documents would put my friends, my family and I in harm’s way – it’s a problem.) Again, those who voted for Trump, the 71.2m people, #NEVER thought about this. If they had, Trump would #NEVER have received their vote. America has a short attention span. How quickly have we forgotten that Trump’s inaction of Covid-19 could have prevented many from becoming ill and millions losing their lives. (If one of your loved ones have passed due to Covid-19, you will remember Trump’s inability to deal and handle the situation. It is something you will #NEVER forget.) I will not write a book here, but the listed reasons above is why Trump may be the 47th President of the United States, but he isn’t my president. My president would have #NEVER done these things to an American.

I came to Germany in December 2022.\nI work as an unskilled worker.\nI graduated from university, but I did not apply for a qualified occupation because my German is not B2 or higher.\nFor the first 6.5 months I shared a room.\nDuring those 6.5 months I applied for apartments and collected money. I found an apartment with the help of the application.\nI was separated from my family for 14 months, but we managed to reunite. We also found a place for our son in kindergarten.\nMy German level is A2. When I needed to, I used the English language in government offices as well. People also understood my level of German. None were angry that my language level was not higher, but I managed to finish everything so far.\nI can say that all my experiences so far have been positive, I tried to respect my appointments.\nIn perspective, it would be beneficial for Germany to use English more because a qualified worker, if he has to choose between a country with English or Germany with German, will choose English first.\nThe German language is wonderful, but the world simply works in English and that's how it is.\nAlthough it would also be useful for those of us who came to Germany to learn more German for better business opportunities. Investing in knowledge and openness is beneficial for all parties.

? people held the line and voted for our our interests and the preservation of the nation, whereas ? people voted against their own interests. I can't have sympathy for you because you helped to get a man in office who will actively seek to harm us specifically as a group and others will be collateral damage of his. I guess yall didn't consider Denaturalization ????.

Where was this reporting when it would have helped?????? He's been talking about this for MONTHS and the impact could have been easily extrapolated back then. WHY DIDN'T YOU TAKE THAT SERIOUSLY AND WARN PEOPLE BEFORE THEY VOTED??????

What they should do is hit pause on immigration. I believe they should grandfather in those who arrived prior to a specified year.\n\nI’m sure the majority is ok with immigration. JUST DO IT LEGALLY and for the gov to stop over extending our taxes and money. \n\nAmerica should come first. Americans have been put on the back burner while illegal immigrants get way more help which in turn hurts the very people who were born and raised here. We got people and children starving in this very country yet have a helping hand for those who don’t live here, came illegally or even like us. \n\nSo put the pause on and help Americans then help others. Other countries have stricter policies than we do and they’re thriving. and I believe don’t have as many issues as we do. \n\nAmerica leaders need to look into how other successful countries are running things and see how they can implement or improve on those.

Remove all illegals who are criminals! Have heart on the ones who raised families here and do NOTHING but WORK HARD! I know so many Mexican illegals who I consider good people who worked hard and have helped a lot of people with the construction of their home. All they want is to provide for their families! Lord have mercy ❤

That’s good Canada and America should stop immigration altogether. There are more than enough homeless people that already need help. There’s no reason to bring people from other countries when you cannot take care of your own people.

“Take our country back.” Are those the words of the black indigenous people of the Americas? Who had their identity stolen and given to the Mongolian Indian who helped the white man slaugh?ter them and steal their land. Then the white man back? the Mongolian Indian and didn’t give them any land, but instead forced them on reservations, and then that is when the Mongolian Indian fought the white man. Not for their land Mongolia, but for the land that was promised to them that they didn’t get after helping the white man ?the black indigenous people of the Americas.\nGive the black indigenous people of the Americas THEIR COUNTRY BACK.

Some people say that immigration has helped the economy grow, but do they have any evidence?\nGermany has continued to accept immigrants but has hardly grown its economy.\nAnd the best ones go to the US, and all the losers come to Canada, don't they?

Feel sad for those other international students who studied n returned home after their studies, all coz of those shittyy reckless senseless so called international students whose total intention is to stay in Canada . These people are going to ruin this country. Tell me why there is huge difference in the behaviour of those East Indian born n India and those born in raised in Canada. No mannerism.?don’t know to stay thanks when you help someone. Pee every where

Yeah this is all nice and good but no Arab countries have agreed accept Palestinian refugees. They cry all day about the mistreatment of the women and children but none of these countries have lifted their fingers to help them. At the end of the day, these Arab nations simply don't want an influx Palestinian refugees but they sure like to pretend to have the moral high ground. Netanyahu is a monster. And he has gone beyond what is necessary. But Hamas is an evil organization that must be stopped. An organization that will sacrifice its own people in order to fulfill their agenda. There is no good side here and unfortunately it is the innocent people of Gaza who have to suffer because of the agenda of evil men.

This is good step. How Country will grow , if everyone will be a Uber driver ? . Skilled People can help economy.

I can’t believe these group has never get to know how that conman deceive ?! First , border policy should be a bipartisan policy , does this woman ever have had an idea on how his ‘ conman’ adored DonOld ‘ killed that bill that could have helped immigration policy ??? These PEOPLE never READ ANY RELIABLE articles from reliable sources but only believed from what comes out the lying mouth ? , am truly SAD for these PEOPLE ?

Exactly one of the people latino that comes over and forgets the troubles and struggle to get threw , once they here , fuck everyone else , just like this lady right here , she saying it's ok , cause hating on her own family , sell out! To her family sell out to all Mexicans that are here and still helping out this county , ND these people sadly are in my family too , sometimes i gotta show them old ass pics how they look before they came here all chunty AF nd now they go wit mamadas like this Kamala 2024
