I'm a Canadian and I live in the US because I can't afford to go home. The only thing I like here is the weather. I consider Americans to be unsocialized, uneducated and paranoid. I have never met an actual country of people with no manners before and I have lived in several European countries. I won't even bother mentioning, health care, the education system or the police. They just reflect the people and flavor of the country.\n\nThe average working people can barely survive as it is and now the politicians are actively trying to kill the lower classes. I consider the US to be a shithole country.

Indians are often very dishonest! We have 1,000,000 Indians here who obtained a visa but then never went back home when their visa expired. They are here illegally and working here illegally. An Indian merchant at a convenience store tried to steal a winning lottery ticket from me a few days ago! Several Indians have gone to prison for stealing lottery tickets from customers including HUGE Multi $Million Dollar WINNERS! \n\nI have had Indian immigrants be rude to me even though I was born in Washington DC and my ancestors have lived here for centuries! \n\nWe are having to actually pass laws here to prevent Indians from discriminating agains their fellow Indians in work and housing due to them being Dalits, or ‘Untouchables’ which proves that Indians coming here have no interest whatsoever in democracy and equality. Indians are coming here solely for economic reasons. They are having babies here to take advantage of, abusing, our birthright citizenship law. \n\nOver 700,000,000 Indians don.t even have access to a toilet and yet your government is spending many $Billions on aircraft carriers and a massive military buildup. Get your priorities straight, build safe toilets first for your people! Indians need to remain in India and Make India Great Again!

(1) Motherhood: I was flabbergasted when I found out that people have to pay to give birth in the US - even though they have some of the worst maternity outcomes in the developed world

Canada hasn't exploited its vast land potential yet! It's time to extend Canada to places which are already Canadian, but are still hinterlands. Immigration is mostly in Southern Canada. Allot immigration to these places in North & West instead of already popular, prosperous & prominent provinces & territories. Even the citizens will be able to live peacefully & the real potential of the immigrants would be milked out in building these places.

If you have food for 10 guests, will you invite 20, even a kid understand this, but Liberals don't, the real question, who befenits from all this massive immigrations? Corporations, because it's sure as not the average citizen.

Now this is a dilemma to these 'students' cos India's economy is having a freefall, of course Canada or the UK or even the EU are not doing very well neither. It seems there's no lights ahead to them....

Education matters . Even if you live in Developed country or speak English doesn’t make you gentlemen.

Canadians live on average 5 years longer than Americans because we have affordable healthcare...AGAIN...IT IS NOT FREE...even our politicians need to stop saying it's free...WE ARE TAXED TO PAY FOR IT...and most of us are absolutely okay with that system....well the billionaire class isn't of course...but they don't count.

Students with expired visas should go back. But what is Canadian culture? Is it found in Quebec? Alberta? Or the Reserves? What is it exactly? Do Canadian Immigration documents require applicants to sign they will convert their religion or culture after coming here? If you would change your culture upon entering another country, good for you but you have no right to expect that kind of inauthenticity from other people. If someone changes who they are and their culture upon entering another country then they are not as real as they portray. These are the type of two faced people that can also switch sides to help your enemies if given the chance to. And the truth is no matter how much people 'assimilate' here, people with even an ounce of racism and colonialist ghosts in their head will always first see the color of their skin. I worked at a Polish Grocery store and came across a man who's lived here for 30 years and spoke 10 words of English. All they speak at that store is Polish. I loved working there but I don't see anyone making a video about European immigrants retaining their culture.

Speaking of adapting to the culture of the country you go to, did white peoples adapt to native culture or even respect it??? They call the natives “ savages”.

You don’t even need to be able to speak English to get a drivers license.. blows my mind considering all the street signs.

This is an excellent video, and you are clearly a very respectful and decent person. Thank you for posting it. I only hope you will keep my comment posted here once I write it. I've written similar comments elsewhere that were automatically deleted by the person who posted the video, and I found that disheartening. I first want to address the rumour about human feces and dirty diapers being found on Canadian beaches, and I want to stand up for the people who called out Indians for doing this. Somebody saw something. Maybe they weren't able to produce any legal proof of it, but they clearly saw something, and there is nothing racist about them calling out this behaviour. This practice is not only unhygienic. It is ILLEGAL in Canada; so, it absolutely should be called out publicly to prevent it from ever happening again. I have seen many videos about the culture of mass open defection in India. The videos I saw were posted by Indians themselves. One of those videos was a TEDx talk done by a woman named Sangita Vyas who discussed the truth about open defecation and that it is not limited to only the poor population. Even people who can afford to build latrines are not using them, and she explains why after interviewing Indians to ask why. I've watched Indian doctors talk online about how many Indian children die from something as simple as diarrhea every year as a direct result of the water contamination caused by open defecation. So, clearly, open defecation is legal in India, and perhaps some of these people think if it's legal at home then it must also be legal elsewhere. WRONG. It's illegal in Canada. It's unhygienic. It should never happen. Period. And there is NOTHING racist about a Canadian saying this out loud and reminding people that they must follow the rules and laws of the country they are in.

Question if this country was stolen then what makes having more immigration here so righteous? Come on socialists/ globalists/ one worlders? They tore down just about all the trees and houses in Surrey B.C. They build their mega houses replacing us and ours, and the trees, ad even parks like Bear Creek Park is in danger by culprit pro nonstop development Surrey City Hall. It all began with Mayor Doug megahouse Mc Collum. Surrey sucks, full of crime and no fresh clean air.

I don't believe their numbers on fake/real refugees and asylums. We have noticed a real change, and for that to happen, it has to be more people. Many of these people are not assimilating, nor are they following our laws. We also have the students who need to leave protesting as if they have rights. Many of them never even went to schools, and they broke laws coming in by paying to have LMIA's. It will take years to course correct, if it does at all

there's even indians in Timmins, ON too now

I was born in Canada and my family was from the Caribbean and were brown. Learned Canadian history from our first PM John a McDonald, Wilfred Laurier, learned French. We were hoping Quebec did not separate from Canada. Our whole family is loyal to one country and that is Canada only. The small minority of Indians have destroyed what made us Canada. Playing Punjabi music downtown at Yonge Dundas that never happened. These punjabis are deliberately travelling from Brampton to dance at Yonge Dundas to shove their music in our face. Even my Indian friends who were born here want all Indian immigrants gone they are pissed off. Deport the low skill Indian immigrants and the ones who defrauded the system, the slumlords who exchange rent for sex and the human trafficking.

Canadian's are forced out there apartments, then they rent them at a higher price to people from India they get more for rent. We don't see anyone from other countries living on the streets it's Canadians who built this country . Nova Scotia CP party let in 118,000 people in our tiny province , we are getting pushed out of our apartments while the people from India have a spot to live.. They just come here to work ,, Canadian'se don't like to work the lower end jobs. I rather see a Tim's close up , and a fast food resturant close up to ease up our housing.. All of them lie , every party, If you can't get a carpenter who is going to build the houses they talk about.. In NS, they only built 80 places,, that 's it in four years then charge huge amount for rent.. Not one party I would vote for they all lie, even about health care,,

Interesting facts: Even Indians who came to Canada 10 years ago are complaining about recent Indian migrants.

Indians are rude, they are ignorant they think they are the best even when immigrants lmfao, also they are cheap and try to exploit every system we have in place for the less fortunate… kick them all out I would be happy.

Canada is failed country ?, even indians avoid it now?, cuz of terror attacks

⁠”Black” Indigenous Americans are wealthier than these Indian Immigrants. You people use OLD FAKE data which FAILS to include the HIGH incomes, wealth, net worth, LAND and properties of “Black” Indigenous American Sportsmen and women (millionaires and billionaires) along with “Black” Indigenous American Celebrities (millionaires and billionaires) along with “Black” American Business Owners and CEOs, “Black” American Doctors, Lawyers, Judges, Politicians, Leaders, Pastors, Activists, Teachers, Authors, Scientists, Singers, Actors, Actresses, Dancers, Performers, Comedians, etc. You looked on the (Du@MB) Internet and took “OLD” out-dated, FAKE and racists data of “ Black” American wealth at $53,000 per year And even less for women?? Your data SUCKS because OUR TOP “Black” Indigenous American’s WEALTH, completely CRUSHES Indian Immigrant”s cheaply earned “tech” wealth! Our “Black” Indigenous American Football and Basketball Players make more than your ENTIRE Indian Immigrant population wealth! \n\nBTW….Your “Black” Indigenous American US Census population data is FAKE also….OUR US Population is greater than (>42%), while the LEGAL Indian/Asian Immigrant US Population is less than (<5%). \n\nIt BUGS me when FOREIGNERS come to OUR “Black” Indigenous American country and try to tell Us OUR AMERICAN HISTORY! We have HISTORICAL RECORDS, FAMILY GENEALOGY TRACKING AND INDIGENOUS AMERICAN DNA! \n\n\nPlease include your IMPOVERISHED fellow Indian-Countrymen when you’re BRAGGING about your UNDERPAID “Tech” hourly wages (with ZERO benefits).

Even in india.., i am\n seeing crime rate rising so much and we are feeling unsafe living in last 6 to 8 years....\n\nSomething really bad and drastic happening to indians recently

U s and canada should make it way harder that illegal people can't even come in here

Once I just searched on google masters degree from foreign country, i literally got 100s of adds for months about Canadian, australian, german and US universities, So if i will take admission in those unis after paying whole saving of my family i atleast want to have rights to work in that country otherwise why would i leave my country as i still have middle class life here. And also it's the responsiblity of any unis in the world that if anyone comes to your country for than they should atleast have right to work for the same number of yr as he spent in his course so that he can earn back same amout which he paid for the tuition fees, suppose if i does my Master's from US for which i have to pay atlest 80-100k including living cost and to earn back that same amount of money in the india from best paying companies will take atleast 7-8yrs it's just about getting same amount of money back in account and to make saving of that much money will atleast take 20yrs then tell me why should some go for education in foreign countires if he doesn't get chance to earn that back, College fees are usually decided on PPP terms of the freshers job in that country that why atleast giving chance for work for the same amount of time of the total course time is a good thing otherwise just stop sending adds, just stop scamming indians, and just close your billion dollor economy which works on fees of indian student. Even many african specially nigerian they qualifies to work in india if they did any of his degree from india.

This is complete lies all I get is dirty looks so they are all told we hate them so they think this then end up hating yts back?? Idk I’m way to friendly and never take myself seriously and all I ever do is nod or try say high and I just get wicked dirty looks and even chased by the teens the park so thanks appreciate all respect LOl

Even they think that they all look the same.

They are crying to get in, with kids in tow. But once in, they repeatedly spit on the Americans and constantly laugh at them as they are receiving free welfare, hotel, insurance, food, etc, (they even post videos on the same). while the Americans are homeless and cannot even receive any help from their own government. Those people do not look hungry; most are just laughing as if going on vacation.

I dont even go out to find a boyfriend any more, i already know theres just indian men outside

Country is clearly finished guy. I feel horrible, but the reality is even worse. God gelp us all

99% is indian not only studend and so funny its the continent of amarican agents indian so the worst is yet to come the are menny countries that more closer to canada but those youth dont get a chance to get into a university and these people buld canada and the amarican but the world have changing because there are two mouch youth from the container of amarica dont get the up liftment that the two grtest countries of the amarica develop other continent so this hate that was place upon indian student if not from the government of canada but the the citizen from countries in the amarican remember the jobs that the Indians are doing for cheep the countries usto benifet from those job so it becomes political because lot of the nabour of usa and canada dont want to even do businesses whit us and canada so to make it easier for peoples to under what i am trying to say its immigrants hating immigrants

Go to the Gulf like Dubai & such and I am sure you will be very well respected and get well paid and food is even better and cheaper

In school... Sabotage your own education by aiding everyone else (at the teachers request). Grades 9&10 were abysmal... Socialism almost cost Me my university education. also no cameras in schools - so when you watch a teacher humiliate a student - it never happened... Even though the vice principal was present! Absolute incompetence throughout with a few excellent teachers!

If Canada could afford it then they wouldn’t be taking everything from the food banks and donation places. There’s nothing left for the Canadians suffering. It’s not even affordable for people that have children anymore, which is why we need immigrants and it’s hurting us.

I believe that lack of health care in the U.S. stops many Canadians from even considering moving and working in the U.S. It may take longer to get medical care and treatment in Canada, but everyone is entitled to it. About 30 yrs ago we all paid into it, at our jobs. Not anymore. I believe employers may still be paying into it, but I think now it is just paid for with our taxes. So even people that do not work or are retired, each and every person is allowed it - if you live here.\nThere is also some Dental Care provided for some Children. Very recently,free Dental care is provided for people over 65. It is very new, so I do not know a lot about it yet. Also some drugs too are free for those over 65 too.\n\nPersonally I do not even want to visit the U.S because it seems like a very dangerous place.

The dynamics is complicated. High energy costs causing increase in costs for businesses and households. Household pushing for more salaries to meet their standard of living. Companies pushes for cost control measures like laying off, moving production abroad, or hiring low salaried people than paid locally (and often rely on hiring foreign workers). Domestic political dissatisfaction, terror incidents and growing AfD sentiment is affecting percieved motivation of foreigners which is affecting exodus of skilled manpower to other countries or even to their home country e.g. India.

Well even if they make it through, what are they going to do for work? ?

Even we do the same if found illegal every country have rights to ensure it.

1- Trudeau should be sent to India 2- stop ⛔️ all immigration programs to Canada until cleanup done 3- deport all student and temporary workers and refugees from countries where there are no conflicts or trouble 4- start cleanup of Trudeau damages, yes it’s still possible to act by retrieving permanent residence and even canadian citizenship from those who came as student, temporary workers or refugees. Only those who entered Canada as legal PR after being through the normal RP process deserve the Canadian citizenship and the RP… after all cleaning done, Canada should review all its immigration programs, and open its doors to only those groups who didn’t abuse the Canadian system example europeans

Hi.just ask about alus citizen wants to visit canada even had only 1 dui2020.please allowing that.

Trump is helping solve CANADIAN problems and BEFORE he even takes power, officially. That is incredible. \n\n\nNow we just have to pray that he doesn’t actually increase those tariffs, and it is very likely that he will. Trump has been very consistent over the years about wanting higher tariffs with all of his trading partners. Getting control over our borders and preventing terrorists from entering the country will help reduce them but not all the way I don’t think. \n\nWe’ll see if that prediction is correct.

This human thumb isnt even a legitimate member of the government. He has no authority ! hes just a mouthpiece for the convicted felon

I feel so embarrassed for them, and I'm not even Indian. ?

Many years ago (I am 82) my husband was a post doc at Princeton. In case we wanted to stay in the USA a few years we became immigrants. While many people were pleasant and interesting , we hated the general culture there. The racism, medical expenses, the lack of public parks, public transportation , etc. we found very unpleasant. I became pregnant. My doctor who was kindly however had to suddenly flee the state as his wife was having him arrested ! He gave me info about places my child could be born on our trip home if necessary at our last meeting for I decided that my child would definitely be a Canadian! So, we packed up and left the month before my son was born. LOL.My recent ancestors are French Canadian, British, Scot , and I am descended from a Loyalist Niagara area family - but am also descended from every founding ethnic leader in the USA! Even several on the Mayflower! So, most Americans are my cousins! I think they have gone astray!

I lived in Austria n Germany for long, but I never felt or heard foreigner! They treated me equal to themselves. Mind you I had dark hair n eyes, n olive skin color. They didn't find cultural differences in my behavior or food. Actually, I was respected n valied even more than average. They didn't know where I was from, unless they asked. But my look made them guess I was Spanish, South American, or Iranian which they liked. But they were really judgemental towards Turks, Yugoslavs, n others.\nI'm talking abt 1970s to 1990s. How is it now, I don't know.

Look T the policy's Biden is pushing after they lost is crazy giving away money to his friends non profits trying selling the border wall putting a green energy policy in place that they are trying to Trump proof if you lose the election u shouldn't be allowed to do anything like that this country is broken and needs major reform. The democrats are literally like idc what the people want screw them wow what a kick in the face. They've been screwing the public for decades when's the last time are government wasn't against the poor and middle class just look at the stock market manipulation they change rules on the day to hurt people and change orders and halt stocks but allow backedup orders look at what they pulled with gamestop i cant believe the crsp I've seen these past years since cv19 and before that its blatant theft we can do anything at anytime for any reason that's communist worse actually cause at least the communist admit they are corrupt the lying crap is way worse no its not rigged no we ain't stealing well why did u rig it then and steal from people then why can't any politician explain why they are making 20 x there salary a year why don't they have to show where they got it from why does the irs not care why is the fbi stealing treasure finds from people and lying about it after they get caught why is it are whole country has turned to such garbage now dam straight we don't trust a bunch of lying crocks that literally get away with everything when we can't even get a a single thing its just so much its unreal I can go on and on while I'm talking im positive another politician just stole another 1 million dollars like its picking up a dollar off the ground

Simple really, in Maslow's hierarchy of needs a person who doesn't have security in their basic needs of food, shelter, and safety can't get beyond that point up the ladder to self actualization considering other aspects of fulfillment, if you and your fellow countrymen are suffering and can't secure necessities for even basic survival like housing then seeing others come in is a threat to what little resources are available and therefore a threat to you regardless of where they are from, threats are reacted to with anger as a survival mechanism often subconsciously and is a normal human response, it's not hatred towards immigrants it's justified anger, frustration, and fear about you and your family being out on the streets and of course it's also universally unfair and unjust to those who were already part of the country and have paid into it, competition for resources in other words, I'm not Canadian but it works the same way no matter where you are

If you wish to immigrate to the U.S., you will need to obtain citizenship funds, housing funds, and other things to get you in line with the law.\n A country has its own rules, and to do as one pleases, even if it means breaking the rules of the country, is frowned upon by the people of that country.\n The problem is that Japan and other countries, such as France, are experiencing a number of tragic events due to the immigration problem.\n Recently, a 10 year old Japanese girl was raped by a 30 year old Kurdish man, and Japanese citizens are living in anxiety everyday. Like the U.S., every country is now very annoyed by all the immigrants! Immigrants impose their own culture. Why is it that these immigrants are allowed to stay in the other country, and yet they are not allowed to care about the culture and rules of the other country ? If that is the case, it would be better for both parties to live in the country of their birth from the beginning for the sake of peace.\n\n＊most japanes ppl said American people do the right thing.you chose right person for president! now japanes need facing their own problem,

This reminds me of the bible, daniel 12 4 but thou, o daniel, shut up the words , and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.

Don’t be jealous of Punjabi.We are the best in India and even anywhere in the world.

I’m not even American and I agree completely! These illegal immigrants are just looking out for themselves. They want to exploit the US and have been doing it successfully for years!
