As an Indigenous Canadian, these folk are just doing the jobs that privileged white people don’t want to do. Who’s at the unemployment offices, on the streets, in our jails…. white people!

Canadian here: 10 yrs ago it was rare to hear a Canadian say something derogatory about another ethnicity beyond the basic complaints about the French or Natives. Even that was fairly tame since a lot of Canadians have either French or Indigenous ancestry. I have never heard so much ethnic hostility over the past 5 yrs as people will just openly insult Indians. I have heard professionals say “Never trust an Indian”. Canadians are PISSED with how Indians have exploited Canada

Shitty thing is that us real natives us indigenous peoples don’t get a say in this whatevs this is Canada America Bs fuck you all give us our land back and go back to all you ancestral lands

Canadian Indigenous people are Indians but not these Indians

That's funny because the European colonizers didn't assimilate either and in fact they destroyed the indigenous culture and took their lives So I guess these new From India Being rude and in a hurry Is a lot different than decimating An Indigenous population and then acting like you're the Civilized one ridiculous

If you want to ask a native Canadian that would be a First Nations or indigenous tribal reservation member. White people are also immigrants in Canada and America.

The contrast between immigrants, many from India, and the rhetoric of those who now feel like a new minority was striking. It should not surprise me that racism appears anywhere humans are, but what stood out was how some speakers treated all Indians as a single people, despite hundreds of cultures, and accused them of failing to assimilate to ‘their way.’ Many of those voices were themselves descendants of immigrants who were once pressured to abandon Norwegian or other identities in the name of assimilation. Yet there was little evidence they had actually spent time getting to know their Indian neighbors, their cultures, friendships, or daily realities. Instead, the focus was fear and a narrative of societal collapse, rather than honest engagement that separates real local issues from blanket blame. Of course, any local community can have problems, and some groups can be unwelcoming. But the argument presented implied there is only one way to be Canadian. That echoes xenophobic rhetoric in the US about who counts as ‘American,’ often while ignoring the reality of Indigenous peoples entirely. I do not deny the importance of shared commitments like the rule of law, freedom, and evidence based policy rooted in the Enlightenment and scientific thinking. But culture and learning can coexist with those values. What troubled me most was how poverty and discrimination were replaced with racial generalizations, and how victim language was used to deflect responsibility, something that resembles DARVO. Given the same conditions, these problems could arise in any group, regardless of race.

Like racist , cruel shit bhenchod europeans kill all the indigenous people of us canda and call it theirs now crying .. ye madarchod euporeans chor bhenchod ab inki gand mein dard ho rha hai

People with white skin belong to Europe. They have no connection to this continent. Do to them what they did to the indigenous people of this continent. Send them back to their place of origin; if they refuse, throw them into the nearest ocean.

As a First Nation member to treaty 7, it so bad on some reserves that East Indians are trespassing on the reservation and try to give anyone a ride/kidnapped to who knows where. They mainly target indigenous women and children. I know that a member from the community shot at one that was trespassing on reserve land we have weird Municipal laws so the guy who shot didn’t get charged

Good job 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 People with white skin belong to Europe. They have no connection to this continent. Do to them what they did to the indigenous people of this continent. Send them back to their place of origin; if they refuse, throw them into the nearest ocean.

In Canada every Tim Hortons is like that it's become known as Singh Hortons Also real native Canadians don't like the word "assimilate" after what was done to the indigenous

If I was an indigenous “Native (North) American” I’d be ashamed and furious at how brainwashed (by the tribe of Israel) the modern yt person is to just give back the land that my ancestors bled for and lost to any random brownoid from any corner of the globe. We won this land after conquest and we should respect it and ourselves by keeping it traditional to our culture.

First of all Canada 🇨🇦 is not white people's country. It was stolen from the Native indigenous people. Secondly, I am not Indian but Indians have controlled all the big businesses Canada has. Third None white people will take over this stolen land , the reason is they work harder than the fat guy on the bike, that fat guy on the bike being racist against the 54 African countries show his true color. He was born in Canada and he can't even afford buying a $3,000 vehicle, he rides $50 dollars bike in -30 Canada winter because he is lazy and racist. The lazy and racist people can't even afford a good lifestyle!!! Indians and Africans owns big real estate properties and business. But the fat racist guy on the bike can only afford KFC Toonie Tuesday 2 dollars chicken and Burger Kings 3 dollars Burger. Again NO ONE IS ILLEGAL ON STOLEN LAND 😅😂 GOD BLESS INDIANS 🙏 GOD BLESS AFRICANS THE RACIST WILL DECLINE

I wounder if the indigenous people of canda felt the same way when white people demographicly replaced them? Some food for thought 🤔

I'm so glad you did this video. Racist will be the first response. Yet, as Canadians we know that our Race is the minority and young white people refuse to work. It is also very hard when every single store; walmart; Fast food is all India. Other races will not be hired, so all we see are India taking over every taxi and every single job. They can tolerate having all their family live in one house, as they buy multiple homes. These homes are left empty, until enough house are bought to take over a lane or an entire neighbourhood. They are not hostile; extremely friendly, yet not as concerned about wearing hair net or beard net or gloves when preparing food. (We are told most are friendly but to be mindful of those that wear their head wrap. (Timmins Ontario has been taken over) ... According to 2021 Census data from Statistics Canada, there were approximately 765 people of South Asian descent living in the Timmins census agglomeration. Recent estimates and community reports suggest this number has continued to grow through 2026, primarily driven by international students and economic immigration. Population Estimates and Demographics Indian Immigrants: As of the 2021 Census, 115 residents in Timmins were specifically listed as having India as their place of birth, a significant increase from 55 in 2016. South Asian Population: The broader "South Asian" visible minority group—which predominantly includes people of Indian heritage—numbered 765 in 2021, representing 1.9% of the total population. This was a sharp rise from only 165 people in 2016. International Students: A significant portion of the Indian community consists of students at Northern College. Reports indicate that since 2017, the college has enrolled nearly 2,000 international students, with approximately 96% originating from India. Recent Growth Trends (2022–2026) While the official 2026 Census data is not yet available, current local indicators point to a sustained increase in the Indian community: Rebounding Population: Mayor Michelle Boileau noted in 2024 that Timmins' population has reached its highest levels in over a decade due to immigration and industry opportunities. Newcomers: Since 2021, over 700 newcomers have arrived in Timmins through programs like the Rural and Northern Immigration Pilot (RNIP). Cultural Infrastructure: The growth of the community led to the establishment of the city's first Sikh temple to serve the expanding Sikh and Indian resident base. Note that "North American Indian" refers specifically to Indigenous First Nations people, of which there were approximately 2,640 in Timmins as of 2021. This is distinct from the population of people with origins in the country of India.

The indigenous people of Canada are from India and Oriental then the white Europeans came made it white now the Indians are making it brown again make Canada brown again

It's cool to have East Indians here in Canada... but for Christ sake, they better assimilate to the Canadian way, speak English or French and respect the indigenous culture. 🤦 If they left India, then they should leave their past behind. 🤦

I wonder if we could respectfully hear the perspectives of Indigenous peoples regarding their experiences since the arrival of settlers in Canada around 1763.

So crazy the mental gymnastics of the descedents of colonizers. "I JuSt WanT My CoUnTry BAck" crew can kick rocks. Lets they aren't killing, enslaving and piliging the local indigenous people

All Canadians are immigrants apart from the indigenous people

Yes, it’s country of immigrants. Some 200 years ago, many white immigrants came , killed the natives and become the people of the land. Yes then they built the country with their hardworkband brain but that don’t take away the logic that they were too „not the people of the land“ and to add to it the “hineous” act if indigenous ethnic cleansing. Horrendous 😢

Ha Ha Ha!! As an Indigenous person in this country they call Canada, everybody is an immigrant to me. Now you know what it feels like.

it was always the indigenous playing the 'race card' ,wanting hand outs, made up the majority of criminal activity, dividing, demanding national political representation and governance. dad always said, when residence of reservations see the corruption from their own chiefs, theyll fight each other and one day 'new canadian' (once a minority cultural decent) will flood the country and then they can fight it out with natives. 'white' people cant afford to sustain natives and immigrant hand outs. both out populate 'white' canadians who pay the most taxes and have become the most discriminated. they wonder why existing canadian citizens birth numbers are down? high taxes, no assistance, high cost of living. we cant afford to raise big families. when they try bring in sharia law and christians become a minority, we will see another crusade

"the country they live in was a shit hole"? Really? So only white Europeans paid their dues to be in Brampton? So they saturate and elect their own politicians eh? Isn't that what Canada has done federally, provincially, and municipally since inception? There is still no black person sitting in the supreme Court of Canada. There has never been a black, Indian, or indigenous prime minister.

Support indigenous people Not terrorists criminals

Rebel reporter of Somalian background her parents were refugees and through the good graces of the progressive liberals got the start up goody package that most Canadians would never receive ... A Somalian refugee recipient talking about refugees little hypocritical 😂😂😂😂 okie dokie😂😂😂😂😂 you need to keep her on the indigenous bashing demonizing routine I like the Nipsey Russell Sideshow on t her indigenous bashing. Having her talk about refugees is asinine 😂😂😂

Would have been very interesting to hear an indigenous persons opinion on the “Canadians” and the other immigrants.

everybody is an immigrant unless you are indigenous american so cry

The “Canadians” are not the indigenous people of the land so really can’t complain. Be very grateful there Indians and not Pakistanis

Illegal alien Europeans are unhappy Canada changed indigenous people had same views when these arrived

Before these people call others ‘migrants,’ they should remember that the only real migrants in Canada were the European settlers who arrived centuries ago and violently seized Indigenous lands. Indigenous nations :: Cree, Haudenosaunee, Mi’kmaq, Inuit, Métis, and many more.. had lived here for thousands of years before Canada even existed. Colonization brought disease, massacres, land theft, and the cultural genocide of residential schools, where countless Indigenous children suffered and died. The Canada these people now claim as their own was built on stolen land and Indigenous blood. And now, the same system they built.... one that preaches democracy, equality, and freedom is biting them back, as people from every corner of the world, including those with darker skin, come to settle, contribute, and rightfully share in what they once stole. History has a way of balancing itself and this time, justice looks a lot more diverse...

This is natural..Canada was created by subjugating and killing the indigenous peoples...so this is totally fine and im happy about this. I hope it becomes India 2.0 and im not even a fan of Indians but they never colonised anyone so in this situation i support them over european heritage folks who dont believe in god.

The only problem I see is there are so many Indians.Over 1 billion and as is their right they are creating better opportunities for themselves just like many other nationality.Indians are by and large hardworking good humans.Its not just Canada but all over Europe are receiving thousands.Ireland for example is tiny with a population of 7 million overall and its seeing a big influx of Indians .Irelands indigenous population will be a minority in 30/40 years I’m not just saying its Indians in Ireland but they are a a growing population in many countries

There are always two sides of the story. When British and French went from starting trade with indigeneous to brigning their families and settling towns on their land, they must have had the same feeling. Europeans just didn't stop their they openly slaughtered and put small children in residential schools where many lost lives and are still living with generational trauma. India was doing fine before british came in and lynched the economy to feed industrial revolution in west. I have seen Finnish, croatian, greek, polish, italian, german cultural centers and businesses serving their communities in Canada. Can we also say that they should assimilate in Canadian culture? What is even Canadian culture? It is the "The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms", read that thing and the history if you are not familiar. I do acknowledge that there is massive influx of immigrants in a short span which govt. did to compensate for labor needs but they did not invest in infrastructure and orientation of immigrations. I have worked with Canadians in their 60s vs 20s, there was a huge difference in work ethic. My white manager relied on me and my another friend for closing or opening shift than some local preveliged kids. I am in support of deporting illegals but let's educate who are here legally. Collaborate with communities to voice out your concerns and look at the positive impact immigrants have made in past decades.

Where are the indigenous people or first nation. No temple or mosque should be in Canada, you cannot go to their country and do that

Indigenous watching red necks complaing "1/4 are immigrants": 👁👄👁

Most Americans living in the U.S. today aren’t originally from there — their ancestors migrated from Europe just a few centuries ago. Yet documentaries like this make it seem as if others are ‘taking over’ their land. The same story exists in places like Australia, where the original Indigenous population is now a small minority. Over time, migration changes every country’s demographics — it’s a global reality, not an invasion. Even cities like London, Toronto, or New York are built by immigrants from across the world. So before calling it a ‘takeover,’ remember that every nation today stands on layers of migration, adaptation, and cultural exchange.

Canadian government needs to be filled with only white and indigenous politicians. No outsiders your family must have lived in canada for 4 generations, that way they shoupd fully understand how and what canadians want and need. Plain and simple. I dont see white canadians or amaricans as politicians in any other country! Its all their own people! India, Pakistan, China and so on. Canada needs to stand strong against outsiders and new comers who think their coming here to bring there BS

Change is bound to happen. The indigenous people were happy and making life for themselves until you guys came. This is just part of the cycle with the East Indians coming in. The new world was not originally white.

I found it telling that Michelle confidently quoted the wrong number (79,000) and, when Aiesha corrected her with the accurate figure (47,000), she immediately switched gears to “Where are they?” rather than owning the mistake. That dodge makes me question her judgment. It feels like she’s leaning into fear‑mongering language that easily panics people who aren’t paying attention to nuance — which, sadly, describes most of this comment section. Also, did you see the reply to the Filipino student who voiced frustration? “You guys make up some of the most cleanest restaurants I’ve ever been to.” That kind of response speaks to a lack of respect for international students. To many in the Canadian workforce, international students and migrants are treated as disposable labor — steered toward low‑ and middle‑income jobs. Yes, fraud should be dealt with, but it’s lazy and unfair to claim that all Indians or international students come here through fraud. If that logic ruled, we’d have to start deporting every non‑Indigenous person — which ignores the whole reality of colonization.

And the British occupied , lived and sucked every drop of blood from India for 190 years? How about that? How about being reminded that Canada was formed by wiping out Bethouks, many other indigenous peoples?

These disgusting pigs have taken over my country! They are treated amazingly by our spineless government while the true indigenous Indian population is totally neglected and live in poverty on reserves. I am disgusted by what I see. These people are disrespectful and foul smelling pigs!

Every Canadian city is like that except in Saskatchewan we don't talk about the indigenous

All these ethnically white Canadians don’t realize that most Indigenous North Americans want them to go back to Europe as well and leave forever.

Considering that the indigenous Canadians aren't white, and Canadians of European ancestry decided to move from Europe to Canada, why are white Canadians complaining about other immigrants? If you prefer to be among white people, wouldn't you move to Europe?

Where indigenous Canadians? They never been Europeans . Chicken come to roost

Segregation—whether by income, race, or religion—is deeply embedded across North America. In many ways, it defines how communities are formed. People are often drawn to this continent precisely because they believe they can find a place where they feel they belong—whether it's a gated community with an average household income of $250,000, or a neighborhood where Italian is predominantly spoken. With the exception of Indigenous peoples, everyone here has settled on land that once belonged to someone else, reshaping it to fit their own culture and needs. In Canada, this dynamic is particularly visible. It’s one of the easiest countries in the world to migrate to—whether through official channels or otherwise—largely due to historically lenient laws. Beyond immigration, Canada faces deeper systemic challenges. From weak enforcement around serious crimes to broader identity issues, the country may be in need of a serious re-evaluation. At its core, Canada must ask itself what it stands for, and what kind of nation it wants to be.

Strange World we live in! My friend is indigenous he said too many whites europeans on our land! WTF As being asian don’t know whose country is this. ! Whites? Indigenous? East Indians?

KKKanada wants to send people back, lets start by sending the white settlers back to where they came from, including this white colonial bitch. Wanna criminalize migration, let's start by giving back all the stolen resources and knowledge to the indigenous people of not only this stolen land but what Imperial powers, like the British crown took and continues to take from country like India. It is amazing how quick people are to blame individuals but forget that Europe, Canada and US stole more than half of the world's resources, peoples and knowledge. There is a reason why resources, knowledge and wealth are accumulated in the West. Want to stop people from coming in? GIVE OUR DAMN RESOURCES, LAND AND KNOWLEDGE BACK.
