It’s a problem here in Canada. They aren’t heading to the USA basically all of them stay cause it’s just easy. Nobody would have a problem if they made an effort to assimilate and some do but the ones who don’t ruin the image for the rest of them. Other obvious problem is we’ve let in too many people in in general like more people have come than living units have been built making many problems just right there and then and it’s not really the people who immigrates fault it’s the government. I know restricting imagination and making the test to get in harder so they actually have to know something about Canadas history and our culture and realistically we need to apply more pressure on the expectation that immigrants eventually assimilate.

To answer your last question, it is because they want this... look up harjeet sing. He was the top general of canada. And when the afganistan withdrawl happened, lets say canadian troops showed bias as to who was being pulled from the warzone...

4:56 what an smart this guy is. first a generalization that all hindus eat poop is racist and low iq (if he wants to bring up iq) and what about indian muslims/christians? they are more hygenic and does this guy just reject thim cause of their color? muslims and arabs literally are cleaner than most whites. we dont walk with crusty bits of poop in our butt we clean it with a bidet

I'm glad Tyler is more or less neutral in his findings. It's true, many Indian's have come to Canada and I'm sure many do wish for a better life. Canadians understand this, but the methods the government of Canada is doing to push the numbers too high and too quickly is what's surprising to many. It's the accountability of the government that should be under scrutiny. If immigration was moderate and consistent, the social issues would not be as rampant, but social media loves stir the pot. This is also happening while Canada's housing infrastructure is crumbling, healthcare is deteriorating and general cost of living in Canada has skyrocketed and priced many Canadians out of simple living and enjoyment. Do you think Canadians today are as happy or well off as Canadians even 5 years ago? Do the results reflect that of other countries besides Canada?

🤬😡 that bike guy was an absolute a*shole. I'm not from Africa, but calling an entire continent stupid is just pathetic. shame on all the cockroaches in the comment section supporting him. idiots like him are the reason stereotyping and generalization still exists. even if a smart guy came from Africa tomorrow, these people will still discriminate against him because of "his" background. absolutely retarded. these uneducated poor illiterate pigs who has failed in their lives are now hating on immigration to feel good about themselves. f*ck these racist dude, and all the idiots supporting him thinking it's funny and cool.

No matter how much you guys hate us Indians but it is a reality that your big companies need an Indian guy to work because you all are either not qualified enough for any job in your own country or soo busy in just hating black people/white people (in short racism) Today we are capable enough to take over any job in any country that's the reason of all this hate coming towards us 😂 And I know there are some people who lack civic sense in general but come on have you seen your people? It is common everywhere but you guys are soo jealous of Indians that you are just ready to target us

Please make a video on the Foreign Medical Program and how it’s being abused in places like the Dominican Republic and Thailand, Panama, Colombia etc. I have information on this. They are taking advantage of American veterans and using them as cannon fodder for the processing of fraudulent and overbilled claims and others forms of medical fraud. This drains VA resources and hurts the general veteran community.

guy on the bike say that "indians are generally a dirty people" just as easy as ordering a big mac. he got nuttin to hide. exercising his freedom of speech like a champ. lol

One thing that always surprises me is that a lot of immigrants actually don't like mass immigration. I worked with a polish lady who complained more than anyone about the amount of polish people. I've met a lot of Turkish people and a few of them weren't best pleased with the amount of turkish people, and in this video an Indian man says there's too much of it too. Its not an uncommon sentiment among immigrants that they specifically came here for a change in culture, only for it to follow them here. Specifically surrounding politics, a lot of them leave because of the politics where they were, only to find its just as much of a problem here because so many bring those problems over with them rather than leaving them behind. Just to clarify though while I think immigration is obviously a big problem in its current state, I'm not at all against the idea of immigration in general. I care more about where people are going than where they're from. Its just very odd when you hear a strong accented polish lady walk passed complaining and swearing about all the polish people. I guess it does make sense though, if i imagine desperately wanting to leave home for Australia, it would obviously be disappointing to arrive after packing up my life savings to find out all of the people and all of the things were exactly the same as back home. Pretty sad when you think about it.

4:56 Generalizing people by race or religion is ignorant. Muslims are some of the kindest and most charitable people I’ve met, and Islam strongly promotes respect, protection of women, and moral responsibility.

Difference between the somali community and indian community is night and day... indian people generally have a very strong work ethic and are educated but like with everything there is diminishing marginal utility when you decide to import in mass. It's not optimal.

As an Indian individual born in Canada, I don’t think it is right to generalize all Indians for creating such a huge problem in Brampton. From this video, you can obviously see the differences between the Indians that want to be here and want to make a life here and the ones that are running time on their tourist visas. But do not blame the entire Indian population, its inaccurate.

Bike guy is hilariously honest. But Africa is too diverse for his generalization though. Even within one country. But man..70? I think I should get an IQ test.😂

I'm an Indian, and give these white people there beloved" tim hortons" back you guys! Damn. the racial profiling in this video is crazy "good white", "generally a dirty race". I'm currently in edmonton and the number of "white" people with piss in their pants i've seen is crazy . Stop racially profiling people it's never fun when it's done pointing at you, just so you know.

what kind of shit is that gu spouting? Nobody here eats poop... WTH!! That shit got me raging... Also those people are generally not the upper class, they are middle class or lower. Upper class has good enough life here they would never leave their own country with the cheap luxuries that we can afford here.

😅😆😁😄😃😀🤣 0:12 "Indians are generally a dirty People"..."they don't seem to be eating poo"

Hate to say it, but bike guy is right. I work in a (genuinely) diverse area and African men are by far the worst customers. Incredibly condescending, interrupt me constantly, and if they have a wife/girlfriend with them, they're constantly berating her. I've found Indians are cheap but generally polite, the biggest problem is that there's just too damn many of them and they don't assimilate, so you become a stranger in your own hometown when they move in. I remember looking for a place to get takeout around my boyfriend's house and it was literally 90% Indian food, 10% pizza with butter chicken and tandoori toppings.

5:30 not true. IQ has been sebunked as it correlates with education level. poor countries such as african ones do not have good education generally.

Get it stopped before you end up like the UK, they don't generally integrate! ... and they dump rubbish everywhere.

Sikhs are generally good people. I think you focused on the wrong demographic here.

Sikhs are generally nice people but still... When is enough enough, or how long is a piece of string?

I live in the UK and there’s a lot of Indians over here. I genuinely don’t mind them, a lot of them work, contribute to society, don’t take the piss of our welfare state and generally their religious ideology is not one to take over with v10l3nce. Plus their national food is so good! No issue with Indians

Now as far as hygenic panjabis are generally cleaner then south India but these dogs are the online scammers and are also racist as fck

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.

The dude on the bike made a sweeping claim about ALL Africans being terrible people😂😂. I am an African with a Master’s degree in Communication Studies, and I can bet you bike guy doesn't have a high school diploma, but he wants to talk about the intelligence level of all Africans? I've written two books and contributed a chapter to a compendium on journalism in West Africa. While I agree that many of the Africans going to Canada are from war-torn countries without a good education, he speaks of Africa like it's a monolith. Realities in Ghana aren't same as in Ethiopia. South Africa isn't same as Rwanda nor is Senegal same as Madagascar so unless he is referring to individual countries with specific examples, his claims don't even make any sense. I would like to see just one contribution from fatty to scholarship😂😂. EDIT: By the way, some of Africa's brightest minds include Ngozi Okonjo, an economist and politician (Nigerian) who serves as director general of the World Trade Organization; Vera Songwe, an economist (Cameroonian) who served as head of the UN Economic Commission for Africa; Dr. Tedros Adhanom an Ethiopian doctor who currently serves as DG of the World Health Organization; Prof. Salim Abdool Karim (South African) scientist globally respected for his research on immunology; Aliko Dangote (Nigerian) and Africa's richest man and one of the top 100 richest people in the world according to Forbes. The list is too long but fatty there wouldn't know because he's as dumb as a rock and it's easy for him to spew garbage rather than read an actual book or question the stereotypes which he's fed about Africa by his chosen echo chamber.

Look What this asshole saying, indians are generally a dirty people, the streets of india is more safe and more clean then your bull shit torento or any other states full with crackheads, gangsters whole community is drug addict

3:57 No way this Pigger on bike calling us dirty while they literally live on street and smoke crack all day. Whites are generally filthy too. They literally have 2 Girl 1 Cup culture 😭

I have more respect for Sikhs in general over Hindu Indians, but as someone who has to stay in hotels frequently for work, I have Indian fatigue. Not all are bad, but it just becomes annoying.

Why are you people blaming the whole community .A lot of indians came there legally , and worked hard to have a good life there . They pay taxes and don't do anything illegal. Doesn't mean every indians are like that ,a lot of them came illegally. deport such people instead of generalizing an entire community. After all this, canandians elected the same government into power that made this mess in the first place just because they hate trump

🌈🧬🦄🧬🌈 The Punjabi folks are generally quite hard working and family oriented. They will mostly welcome white people as family too. It is just too many too fast though they agree.

its not the Punjabi people that are the problem or Indians in general its the uneducated they let in for no apparent reason without proper vetting if you cant speak properly and express proper immigrant values you should not be aloud in PERIOD. Canadian born Punjabi even we see it its not everyone but were getting a bad rap cause of stupidly

Indians are generally good people some might have issues but hey no one ain't perfect. Now the issue is I prefer migrants to assimilate e.g. I am a japanese migrant in canada so I decided to do things to be canadian speak English, Go skiing and live like everyone else Not building my own japan town or whatever. Also the second issue is Mass migration because these people once they come they start promoting it back home so more people come so it pretty much a point of no return. Also using the canada for a stop over for usa is very weird reason but don't do that that just sets a bad example to your people

I felt the racism coming through the screen. Using Canada as a "stepping stone" to "sneak into the greatest country on earth" was funny though - it really shows how self-obsessed Americans can be. India has its problems, but Indians legally migrating to Canada should not be seen as criminals. The visuals used were also very offsetting - when a woman said India is a beautiful country, you showed us dirty Indian roads. We can do that too: show people of Fentanyl and drug overdoses whenever you say "greatest country on earth." Over 40% of Canadian immigrants are economic class immigrants who go through rigorous points-based selection (IRCC, 2023) Indian immigrants to Canada have higher educational attainment than the Canadian average - 52% hold bachelor's degrees or higher compared to 34% of the general population The US has approximately 107,000 drug overdose deaths annually (CDC, 2023), with fentanyl involved in over 70% of cases India-Canada remittances totaled $5.7 billion in 2022, contributing significantly to both economies Indian-Canadians have lower unemployment rates (5.8%) than the national average (5.9%)

Over the years I have seen the gradual increase in Indians, and have had to deal with my share of it. The most interesting interaction I have seen is between Indians, namely in college the Indians traveled in packs, and densely at that. They could be tracked via smell alone. But the interesting part was, any Indian that did not stick to the pack, and did not smell like shit had endless insults, and general racist remarks made against them. AKA anyone who did not act the part, was simply seen as a traitor. Which is to also say, they fully wanted to bring India here, and had no intention of leaving anything behind.

It’s good to hear some are thinking of leaving to the US. I truly wish for their success. I worked at a college that became a diploma mill in Vancouver and you couldn’t go to the men’s room without seeing 3 or 4 dudes hanging out. Foreign students also take from the food banks enough to have 1st year students now banned and many people no longer donate. I generally have great experiences Indian people, and have travelled India extensively, but if you let in too many of one type the native population will have a hard time and the immigrants themselves won’t integrate and build their own society. Blame the Liberal government.

Some of the recent Indian parasites be the Gujus and South Indians. But in general they contribute to society, in comparison to some other immigrant waves like the bike guy mentioned.

My only gripe is that they litter and don't clean up after themselves. Indians are generally good people though.

Wow, what a piece of trash video this is full of misleading information that it should be banned from YouTube. Canada is full of various ethnoburbs for decades and it has generally worked for the benefit of the country. Go to Markham or Richmond and it's 80%+ chinese. Vaughan is mostly Italians. So many areas of the country has had immigrant populations like Brampton does. Then you give an outright racist a platform of about 4 minutes in this video to say such BS that Indians eat poop, and Africans have sub 80 IQ. It's infuriating to see this content.....and from an American no less. You then highlight a survey about quality life and make an implication that it has anything to do with immigration. Guess what, you ask that quality of life to any city in North America and they will almost guarantee that quality of life has decreased since the pandemic mostly because of inflation and the economy...not because of some immigrants coming here to take low paying jobs that white don't want to do. It's the same BS that Americans do with blaming Mexicans and Somalians. Only dumb people actually buy into this xenophobic crap that media producers like you promote.

ahhh man welcome to my city. depends on Indians but generally we get the good once i cant hate on then too much. their clan mentality i dont exact like and them changing our culture is a idk maybe little less would be good. but overall good people.

Why is that god white, if the general population of india is brown?

This makes Iselin NJ jealous. Though unlike Somalis, at least the Indians work...the scammers generally stay in India. But still, Canada is losing its culture. Only liberal Western nations allow this unchecked immigration.

I've lived in Surrey BC for most of my life, I'm an avid outdoors enthusiast and like most Canadians respect and admire nature's beauty. Years ago they built a pond on an undeveloped lot next to my neighborhood. It was a beautiful addition to the town as it allowed wildlife a place to find shelter, while giving us a little nature loop within walking distance. On multiple occasions I have caught people dumping literal truckloads of their households' trash into this small forest on a backroad I frequent. When confronted they laugh it off, and generally don't appear to see that what they're doing is wrong. The pond itself is also filled with crap, despite the posted signs informing of the harm this causes the ecosystem. From my (and most people who live here) experience it is overwhelmingly a single demographic that is responsible for the uncleanness in our shared spaces. Any BC resident can tell you about the access to beautiful nature we are privileged to, and I hate more than anything to see it being desecrated in the way I have. Most people will not speak up about this.

7:27 I read that article fully and it also said: “While nearly half of those surveyed said they felt quality of life in Canada’s fastest-growing big city had decreased in the past three years, 79 per cent of residents rated quality of life in Brampton as good or very good.” So the quality of life decrease is minimal and the article cites public safety, crime, and affordability of housing as concerns, but doesn’t specify Indian immigration as being the reason nor the racist implications that Tyler is trying to get at.. This is a classic correlation doesn’t mean causation example. If you read further into that article, people generally say that the quality of life is overall better compared to their survey in 2019. Straight up, Tyler here is cherry-picking data as a means of pushing the right wing narrative that Indians are bad and fueling hatred for them when the real reason is lack of better reform or change from the Canadian govt and Canadas corporations. Not that different from the US tbh.

I'd honestly prefer Indians over Middle Easterners. Hindus and Sikhs aren't proselytizers and generally have a much more mellow religious vibe, unlike Muslims. Plus, Indian food is the shit, I dig curry and samosas. The thing you really have to be careful of, as is the situation with any instance of mass migration, is to be aware if newcomers are taking advantage of Western social assistance programs, like the Somalis have done with the welfare system. They need to understand that to be welcomed as new Americans, they have to work. Indians have proven to be industrious through hotels and convenience shops. I'd prefer them to Middle Easterners or certain cultures of Africans. That all being said, they should also come to understand that, having moved to a modern country, there's very little point in having massive families with ten kids. No need to endlessly spawn more people to help with chores like water fetching when you have indoor plumbing. It's an unfortunate trend a lot of migrants have trouble getting over, the endless breeding that makes locals anxious that they'll become a minority in their own country in just a few generations.

Citizens of oil rich UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman)generally do not pay personal income tax on salaries... hmmmmm Canada

Real dandy but what about: - Lowering cost of housing/rent - Lowering cost of food - Lowering cost of general living lmao

After finishing the video you asked why, and still didn't have an answer. This is lazy of you. It is very easy to find the answer. The answer is economics, specifically capitalism and the welfare state. In order for capitalism to function the best for asset owners, the economy must continue to grow. Company revenues, stock prices, home prices, assets in general. Also, the welfare state needs to have more younger workers paying into the system to cover welfare services for the elderly retired population. Back in the 1950s, economists in Western countries realized their population demographics were inverting. Meaning, the elderly population was growing while the younger population growth rate was slowing down. This is the natural outcome of a wealthy educated society—the elderly live longer due to better healthcare and living conditions, and women tend to have fewer children as they spend more time in school and pursue a career, also families need fewer children compared to poor agrarian societies for various reasons. As such, these economists advised the politicians to increase immigration. This was the way to get more workers in your country to prevent a slow deflationary spiral by increasing consumption, and increase the tax base. Bonus if you bring in STEM workers as economies are becoming more dependent on tech. Anyway that's your answer.

I worked with a lot of refugees and asylum seekers. They are generally allowed to work hwhilst waiting on their claim to be processed. My experience was they are very hard working, smart and ambitious. Not settling for just collecting welfare or hwhat-not. They are net contributors to Canadian society. Fortunately, the ones I knew had their claims approved. But hwhat if they didn't? hWhat if they lied/exaggerated about the persecution back home. They're still productive members of society. hWhy send em back? Better yet: Don't make em lie in the first place! Let them live and work here indefinitely just because they want to.

There is nothing as expected we dont see it .... i beleive that medias trying to brainwash general public that something going on call deportation now time to calm down ..but in reality its something really really slow process ..need more authority ,power and independent reporting to border authorities and new appointments from.canadian rooted candidates

The problem is not the immigrants. The problem is with Canadian leaders, and the Canadians who elected and reelected them to office. I lived in Nova Scotia for just over 2 decades. I attempted to have many discussions about these issues and was shocked by the generally vapid responses I'd get. Much more to say, but the main point is that Canadians have destroyed their own country's quality of life and from what I can see, Canada is not worthy of respect as a nation. I take ZERO pleasure in saying this. However, the country should have provided the United States with a up close example of what a well run social democratic nation looks like. Instead, Canada is a joke to the far right and in fact fuels the far right in the US. Now with the global south amassing on the US's northern border (visit Halifax, NS if you have any questions about this), I view Canada as a threat to the USA - which is a nation with more than enough problems. A note to immigrants reading this: I respect many of you individually, and I do not in the least mind having you in my community. You as an individual are not the problem per se. The problem is that policy makers are simply using migrants to increase Canada's population to 100M by end of century. Google "Canadian House of Commons Century Initiative" to see how Canadian lawmakers voted in support of this policy. Best, Patrick Moan goodhumanhabitat.org
