These people don't understand that President Trump don't play around. He will literally bring tanks and the Army down there. And these people are going to have to turn around and go back whether they want to or not, but what's going to happen is they're going to assault police officers they're going to assault army people and they're going to get shot and then you're going to have the media. Covering it like it's the Army's fault that they had to defend themselves. The media should be ashamed of themselves. The Democrats should be ashamed of themselves, telling these people they can come here and live for free when the Americans have already spoken and said they cannot. These government officials forget they work for us. We do not work for them, but they seem to think that they control everything. This is where we the American people need to take our country back. We have to stop letting democrats think that they can control everything that happens because if they keep thinking that they are untouchable, or that they can keep controlling everything. What do you think going to happen to this country? We are already in the worst times we have ever been in in the USA period but the Democrats just keep going and going and going by giving these people free handouts and then expecting us not to say no, we can't handle them more of them. They are trying to overrun us, because what's going to happen is they're going to keep trying to let them come in, they are doing this for a vote. Do you not understand that the Democrats lost an election in a landslot? They figured if they can allow 40 or 50 million more to come in that they can stay in power for the rest of their time on this Earth until Jesus returned. That's what their plan is Their plans not to help Americans. They're planning to keep these people coming in, giving them free handouts, because they need votes, why don't people understand what's going on? If you bring in a 100 million for the illegal immigrants, they will vote single-handedly every time for Democrats, which will keep them in power, which will keep us homeless, which will keep American citizens begging for food, but they will still be giving these people free handouts from the American taxpayer. Now, what's going to happen is if these people actually get jobs instead of under-the-table where they have to pay taxes, they will quit working. They will quit working. Then the american taxpayer will be without a job.Then the immigrants won't work, and then you'll have a society where nobody's working doing nothing because the governments took all their money

Close the border and build the wall! We can’t afford to have millions from South! We already have 5 millions inside because of Trudeaus student scams ????

Close the border and build the wall! We can’t afford to have millions from South! We already have 5 millions inside because of Trudeaus student scams ????

2.6 million immigrants enter the United States legally in 2023. 11 million immigrants entered illegally. So we are okay with a 2.6 million, it's the 11 million were not okay with. So let's say it cost $10,000 to deport an illegal. That's 110 billion dollars. We already have a 35 trillion dollar deficit. Close that goddamn border.

Mexico’s Economic Apocalypse: My Personal Analysis\n\nThe imposition of a 25% tariff on all Mexican imports by the United States would be nothing short of an economic death sentence for Mexico. As someone deeply concerned about the integrity of U.S. borders, sovereignty, and the well-being of American citizens, I believe this tariff is both justified and necessary. Mexico has repeatedly ignored its responsibilities as a neighbor, and it is time for accountability. Let’s examine the devastating impact this tariff would have on Mexico in brutal, undeniable detail.\n\n\n---\n\nEconomic Collapse: A Nation on Its Knees\n\nMexico’s economy relies heavily on exports, with over 80% of its exports destined for the United States. A 25% tariff would obliterate Mexico’s competitive edge, pricing its goods out of the U.S. market. The result? A $100 billion annual loss in trade revenue—a wound so deep it would cripple the nation’s economy beyond repair.\n\nGDP Freefall: With exports constituting 28% of Mexico’s GDP, the tariff would slash growth rates and plunge Mexico into a severe recession. Entire industries would collapse under the weight of unsold goods and lost revenue streams.\n\nMassive Manufacturing Shutdowns: Mexico’s lifeblood industries—automotive, electronics, and steel—would face annihilation. Plants dependent on U.S. buyers would grind to a halt, leaving millions unemployed.\n\n\n\n---\n\nSocial and Humanitarian Crisis: A Nation in Chaos\n\nThe economic fallout wouldn’t just affect industries—it would decimate millions of lives:\n\nUnemployment Epidemic: With factories shuttered and exports decimated, unemployment would skyrocket, leaving millions of families destitute. Entire regions reliant on U.S. trade would become economic wastelands.\n\nHuman Desperation: Widespread poverty would fuel desperation, leading to a surge in crime, social unrest, and violence. Mexico’s already fragile social fabric would unravel, plunging the nation into chaos.\n\nMass Emigration: Unable to survive in their homeland, millions of Mexicans would flee to the United States, creating an unprecedented border crisis—ironically the very issue the tariff seeks to address.\n\n\n\n---\n\nFinancial Ruin: Mexico’s Peso in Freefall\n\nThe peso would face catastrophic devaluation, losing value faster than at any point in modern history. This would create:\n\nHyperinflation: Everyday goods would become unaffordable for the average citizen. The price of imported essentials—like medicine and machinery—would skyrocket.\n\nInvestor Exodus: Foreign investors, seeing no future for Mexico’s economy, would abandon the country. Capital flight would cause Mexico’s stock market to crash, sending shockwaves through the financial system.\n\n\n\n---\n\nThe Root Cause: Mexico’s Negligence\n\nMexico has brought this apocalypse upon itself through years of neglect and willful inaction:\n\nIllegal Immigration: Mexico has consistently allowed massive waves of illegal immigrants to flow across its northern border, destabilizing U.S. communities and eroding American sovereignty.\n\nDrug Trafficking: The unchecked trafficking of fentanyl and other deadly drugs through Mexican cartels has killed tens of thousands of Americans annually. Mexico has done little to combat this epidemic, allowing cartels to thrive.\n\nBroken Promises: Despite agreements and warnings, Mexico has failed to step up as a responsible partner. Words without action are meaningless, and the time for talk is over.\n\n\n\n---\n\nWhy Trump’s 25% Tariff is Justified\n\nPresident Trump’s 25% tariff isn’t just an economic tool—it’s a weapon of justice aimed at holding Mexico accountable for its negligence. Here’s why this move is essential:\n\n1. Securing U.S. Borders: Mexico’s failure to stop illegal immigration has forced the United States to act decisively. This tariff will compel Mexico to finally enforce its borders and prevent illegal crossings.\n\n\n2. Protecting American Lives: The flow of drugs like fentanyl must stop. By crippling Mexico’s economy, the tariff weakens the cartels that profit from this deadly trade.\n\n\n3. Economic Leverage: The U.S. is Mexico’s largest trading partner. Without access to the American market, Mexico’s economy collapses. This leverage ensures Mexico has no choice but to comply with U.S. demands.\n\n\n\n\n---\n\nA Brutal but Necessary Move\n\nYes, this tariff would cause unimaginable suffering in Mexico, but that suffering is a direct result of its government’s failures. President Trump is not to blame—Mexico is. By ignoring its responsibilities, Mexico has forced America to take a stand. The economic apocalypse that follows is the price Mexico must pay for its negligence.\n\nThis is not just about punishing Mexico—it’s about protecting the United States. It’s about securing our borders, saving American lives, and ensuring that the U.S. economy is not undermined by a neighbor that refuses to act responsibly. In the end, the 25% tariff is a painful but unavoidable reckoning for a nation that has long shirked its duties. The survival of Mexico’s economy depends entirely on its willingness to change course—and fast.

The west doesn't need any more uber drivers - simple.You can package it however you want but WE know it is all an emigration wave.We are already fending off millions without having to deal with billions more.

The West already has tens of millions of Indians already here, your people are everywhere literally all over the world, your country is making it harder to start a business or settle in India, so why should your country get free access?

East Indians are 1.5 million already in. Deportation is the solution not in the reduction in numbers

i think deporting them is gonna be too costly and cause a lot of tension with the us and other countries, not to mention cruel for the people who managed to build a life for themselves only to have it taken away, and also might cause a recession because of the millions of jobs they used to hold being vacant suddenly.\ni think it would be a much better cheaper diplomatic and realistic move for the use to use its massive and already existing and funded military to lock down the border at essentially no added cost, and strictly deport any one who slips through after that lock down, the immigrants who are already inside aren't gonna be a problem so long as they're the last ones who ever get through. thats what i want my country the uk to do, a lockdown so no more hopefuls can get in, because as much as all the immigrants in my country don't deserve to be here, i recognise how much pain it would cause them to be deported after so long in this country. and since they're already here i say no harm in letting them stay as long as no more come.

It's a cosmetic change. It doesn't address 2.8 million already in the country

You can find illegal India people with temporary Visas at 7 11 stores working at gas ⛽ stations too in America or bringing females from India so business men can use them for india sex for other men. Some already have been caught. . In India 18 million homeless, China over 3 million homeless, America has over 1 million homeless.. people gave up their Homes for RV life cause they cannot pay house payments NO more.. so WHY should America bring in illegals and migration when America already has enough problems?! Harris and Biden should be Jailed for causing more problems!! ?

Why they're so stubborn, PM Narendra Modi has already created 20 millions of jobs in India. Fifth largest economy in the world. They could join RSS BJP army.

Don’t come to the USA. We have enough trouble with millions of illegals already here. No jobs, companies and businesses are closing . We don’t need anymore people who don’t believe in our Christian way of life, not muslin .

Total gaslighting going on here. The only reason illegal migration is so bad is that the Mexican government doesn’t control their borders or the cartels. Get real with your commentary. President Trumps is already successful just in letting them know he’s coming and no more bs will be tolerated from mealy-mouthed Mexican presidents who are funneling these millions north.

The audacity and privilege of western news media lady …. Arab word took already MILLIONS since 1948… like 60% of Jordanians are ethnic Palestinians . Maybe, perhaps Europe like Russia, Poland, Germany….could take some of their refugees back, World War || ended long time ago.

Honestly, over flooded with Indian Students, and Indians,Indians also feel uncomfortable.Its more than 2 Millions, one million came from one Indian state - Kerala and rest from Gujarat, Haryana,Kolcutta, Bihar,etc. All Indians came Older, younger in Internation students visa that half million of them already started working or once got admission,started working,not attending school, therefore, had affected Canadians that started to loose their daily job.It has never happend like, this INDIANS are Greedy by nature because of unemployment and POOR COUNTRiES. Indians are involved in Criminal activites, every day, Shocking. Thats why because of Indians students,it has also affected the reputation and chances of visa for other countries.

They aren’t and is a lie just to get a lot more in on top of the million that already came this year

There are probably 20 million illegal immigrants in our country since 2020. Stop trying to complicate this- the hotel lobby, food service lobby, and agriculture lobby, and the freaking ‘demographic collapse’ charlatans caused the democrats to literally delete our borders. Stop trying to complicate this- these people are freaking everywhere and it’s ILLEGAL. We don’t have to pass any new laws- all we have to do is enforce what’s already been the law

Seems to me that the definition of the problem is not clear. What is the problem that we are trying to solve? Clearly, if there are 11 million persons here illegally then there is an immigration problem. What can be done to prevent the number of illegal immigrants to grow? Deportations or mass deportations deals with those individuals that are actually here but does not address the root cause of the problem. The has to be some deportations... but those already exist and already take place. Seems to me that mass deportations is like going on a crash diet for a short time without really changing fundamental habits. The result is weight comes off in the short term but generally returns. So... what is the solution to solving the immigration system deficiencies that has led to the current situation?

Trudeau had already screwed up Canadian immigration policy way before this. Almost a million entered the country on temporary student visas this year alone - with permission to also work full time ! Told this summer they will all have to leave when studies are over, they are now seeking refugee status.

1.3 million have already been through the system and didnt qualify their still here

Within 48 hours of TRUMP winning BEFORE HE EVEN GOT MOVED INTO THE WHITE HOUSE. HE ALREADY CALLED TO STOP THE UKRAINE AND RUSSIAN WAR, Iran has AGREED TO CEASE FIRE, HE IS NOT GIVING ANY MORE MONEY TO ZELINSKY, AND INSTEAD USING WHAT WAS GOING TO BE GIVEN TO HIM FOR US. AMERICANS AND VETERANS WHO ARE HOMELESS, AND THE BIGGEST ONE OF ALL, HES DECLARED WAR AGAINST THE MEXICAN CARTELS. DID I ALSO MENTION HE IS LOOKING INTO THE BLUE ACT WHERE DEMOCRATS HAVE BEEN LAUNDERING MONEY FROM FOREIGN COUNTRIES. MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF AMERICANS OT SHOWED THEY DONATED TO THE DEMOCRATS OVER 200 TIMES IN A YEAR WHEN THEY ARE SAYING THEYVE NEVER DONATED. YEAH.. HES INVESTIGATING THAT TOO. ALL WITHIN 48 HOURS… Do your own research and stop watching CNN if you are still a democrat

Here are some options.\n1) put a complete ban on immigrations from Mexico for the next 10 years\n2) give work permits for people already here.\n3) remove the million or so already denied entry\n4) offer free rent for 10 years to those who volunteer to return to countries the came from. That would have to be limited.\n5) stop soros and ngo from paying people from crossing the border

Why come here, find your way back home. We already have a million coming a year. If you can provide for yourself and have something to offer apply properly like the rest.

It’s impractical to deport over 15 million immigrants in a year they are intermingled and scattered all over the country. There’s not enough ICE staff to get this done and law enforcement is already over taxed

Millions of Canadians already beg for food at food banks every month .... And we have tent cities across the country ... STOP THIS INSANITY NOW!

they don’t have to do anything. trumps a lame duck. you can’t take back your vote. he can say he’s deporting millions without doing a thing beyond what’s already being done. maga will go along with any lie he choses to tell.

If we can cap international students who actually paid triple times the fees and worked as frontline workers in covid then why asylum seekers a burden on tax payers we hardly managing with it. There will be 2 million work permit expire in next two years you think they will leave canada first work on those who are already here neither unemployment will only increase crime here

The Nazis never had any intention of murdering millions of Jews at first but then, faced with the exigencies of war and logistics, they decided at the Wannsee conference that the expedient thing to do would be to enslave the able bodied and kill the rest. \n\nTrump and his Republican thugs are already planning giant detention camps. What will they decide to do when detaining millions of people becomes too difficult and expensive for their taste?

oh my god canda plz plan to stop this economy will collapse if sudden popluln increase of millions additional to what you are already allowing

Deporting all illegal Immigrants will collapse the Agriculture Industry that's already under heavy pressure.Food prices will Skyrocket.\nNot to mention the Human suffering they will cause,looking how they handled the Pandemic where over 1 Million Americans died.\nKids in Cages or whatever horrifying Camps they come up with.

Trumpos has already collected the White House, the Supreme Court and the Senate, and he is now close to putting his small hands on the House of Representatives.\n\nBut even with these four infinity stones he won't be able to snap his fingers and make 15 million illegal immigrants simply disappear.

we have a massive army just sitting there doing nothing. They, and all of their supporting equipment, are already paid for so declare Immigrants from 2020 through 2024 a national threat and produce the largest deportation of illegal immigrants. Once identified as such, there is no need for $10K in documenting any further, drive them to the border open the gate, push them through , close the gate. Once 8-10 Million have been deported, close the border completely and don't open it again until congress passes a comprehensive immigration plan to include visa overstays, path to citizenship, stronger penalties from illegal crossings, sponsorship programs and skills base requirements.

This admin has let in over 10 million people, mostly not vetted and now they are trashing trump asking how he’ll fix this situation Biden and Harris created…. Btw family and friends in CBP, customs and ice have already came out saying they were instructed not to do their jobs in securing the border and enforcing the law…

Canada needs to triple border security, starting yesterday.\n\nWe have already accepted millions - yes, millions - and we cannot accept any more. Our health care, social services, infrastructure, and GHG emissions cannot accommodate any more.

Everyone that will try enter here know they are criminals and Trumps sending their butts back. Mark Miller already says we will have a “measured approach” \nSo hear me out. Is this why Trudeau and Miller were pretending that they were going to lower immigration targets in anticipation of a Trump win because now we are going to get millions from USA? And they claim asylum saying big bad Trump is sending my butt back to Venezuela and my life will be in immense danger there, we already know Libs luv thugs.

We already know Trump plans to deport millions of people. What are you warning about? these millions have 2 months to leave voluntarily...its not like they have a right to be there.

What do you morons in the media not understand, the people want to know who is here illegally and for them to be removed. We have a legal system in place for one million legal immigrants a year, this is simple, if we need five million immigrants, let them in here through the legal process we already have in place. What is the reason for letting anyone come in here illegally other than to do harm to our American citizens, does CNN have any idea why the people are voting for law and order.

Millions deported? You dont have to sell him, he a has already been elected.

We just want a complete ban on immigration from India specially from Punjab and deportation of those who are already entered Canada by unfair means. One million Indian Deportation will solve Canada's 90% problems . They have destroyed everything in Canada including its beautiful culture.

To all the people complaining about immigrants, imagine a mass deportation... The price of everything will go up 200% plus. If people think trump is good for the economy they might be brain damaged. Triple your rent, electric bill, food, hygiene products ect. Can you afford that?? I promise the companies that supply these things will not eat the loss, WE WILL. YOU CAN'T REMOVE 10 TO 15 MILLION PPL AND NOT EXPECT THE LARGEST ECONOMIC CRASH IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD. Trump is an idiot. He's not a good business man or he would know this already. No wonder he went bankrupt 6 times ?

They increased 500% and decreased 20% what a joke… stop it already 12 millions people came to Canada since liberal NDP Trudeau Jagmet

Several million Indians have been in Canada legally or illegally already, according to what this minister said, 40% of them would be immigrants in a few years, it’s absolutely ridiculous, this government destroyed Canada badly.

Why now ? Is the Liberal Government afraid the balance tilt in favour of the opposition party ? \nWhy to ban educated people, who share our culture and values, with good command of one of the official languages, to enter the country ? \n ....after importing by the millions those who are the opposite and are not interested in building Canada, but taking advantage of us and our generous system ?\nToo little too late trudy... even if you get the election by fraud again. You guys have already lost in the hearts and minds of Canadians ... for ever

canada should have 100 million living here already. Big govt. destroyed a free market capitalism country. They went the hitler way.

In Canada, there is not enough housing and jobs are scarce, especially for anyone at the entry level or basic wage. We've been absolutely swamped. This is not the fault of the immigrants or the students, it's the fault of our extremely stupid and short sighted government. Most of those immigrants I encounter are good people, polite and considerate. But some, well I understand where the complaints about rude and inconsiderate behaviour come from, because it only takes a few bad experiences to get people angry. I've experienced it myself, but most of it (from my experience) seems to be from students who are very loud and impolite on public transit. The housing situation here is INSANE, prices are sky high and very little to choose from. A lot of seniors now can only afford to rent a room (after having worked all their lives and very little to show for it), and prices are up about 50% from only 5 years ago. The government says inflation is a fraction of what it is in real life, and living expenses have exploded. As I understand it, some people made a lot of money offering services to bring students and low wage workers in, with no consideration to the damage they were doing to all of us who were born and raised here - they wanted to make their million dollars. Another problem is that once someone arrives here, what they find is NOT what they were led to believe. What students and immigrants are told they need to live here is an absolute lie, living here in Canada has become very expensive. Many workers are severely under paid, and never even see the legal minimum wage, and the problem with that is, almost no Canadian will be hired on to those jobs - the reasons are that imported foreign workers will work below minimum wage because they are trapped here, and the Canadians already know that they will only struggle if they take jobs that pay so poorly. So yes, a lot of Canadians are VERY angry, and you really can't blame them. Once again, the Canadian government is responsible for much of this, and crooked employers who are willing to take advantage of low wage labour. It's an absolute mess.

Pooping On beach, in the public pool, sexual harassment crimes happening everywhere, illegally net fishing salmon who came back to the river and lay eggs, peeing in public, hygiene problem in food industry everywhere and bring down the name of Tim Hortons and others, making noises everywhere, people (specially old people) gether aound at public parks and taking All the space and leave no place for other people to use, most of them are experienced by myself or my friends, so they are not fake news.And if there is an indian manager at any work place, then there are no chances for other people but indians. Need more reasons ? That's already enough I think. If they are thinking or behave like you, my friend, I don't mind at all, I don't care how many they come here, but unfortunately, a lot of them causing problems. 5-10 % of 100k people is not bad, but 5-10 % of 3 million is not a small number.

I am so sorry, as a native Canadian, that Indians are feeling attacked. It is difficult, no matter your ethnic background, if you are not Indian to even acknowledge these issues because people are afraid of being labelled as racist so I thank you for bringing this topic up. Please understand this is the result of runaway immigrations with no real screening. The government quadrupled immigration, hundreds of percents increase in students, asylum seekers, and illegal entries, even though there was already a housing crisis, and a completely predictable doctor shortage due to aging out. Covid was just starting to get under control but many still needed treatment and BOOM, the population went from 30 million in 2014 to over 40 million in a decade, most of it in the last 3 years. We native Canadians are scratching our heads, we don't understand what the Liberals are trying to accomplish but to create suspicion and racism between groups of people -- divide and conquer? Maybe...but ultimately it is a complete lack of planning! Still 99 percent of Canadian born do not blame Iindividual ndians for this. I've lived and worked with Indians my entire life of over 60 years. There are now Indian gangs, particularly Punjabi gangs because of lack of oversight, and while they are small they are constantly committing crimes, selling drugs, shooting people all in the last few years. I hear gun shots nightly in my ethnically mixed neighbourhood, and we are all afraid to walk at night. Unfortunately the people arrested are mostly from continental India. Some have a political agenda that has to do more with India than Canada, so they recruit young Indo-Canadian children from good families and tell them they are being oppressed, and next thing these kids are acting as drug mules and enforcers, being told that they are fighting systemic racism. As for dancing and music, I love the cultural events, we are happy to see and even take part in Indian cultural events. IWhen I do hear people blaming India and Indians it breaks my heart too! Hopefully together we can fix this. Our governments are at odds, and I hate this -- they need to respectfully talk and work this out. You are good neighbours, good people, you are welcome here and have helped build Canada in so many positive ways. ?

I’m sympathetic I really am for the innocent people of these areas but the western world cannot fix that problem that is something that the Islamic people will have to figure out themselves.\n\nI know this is gonna be politically incorrect, but most Muslims are fanatical about Islam and freedom house index put it as high as 40% are fanatical Islamist view, and completely contradictive and hostile towards western civilization and western religions.\n\nI’m sure I’m gonna see the people commenting on this saying Islam is a religion apiece and in fact maybe half or more or even peaceful people but that still leaves you with about 450 million people who are potentially easy prey to be radicalized like you see with the Islamic terror organizations in the Middle East. \n\nThe Muslims are probably the most religious people on the planet and they are still in their religious dark age which is pretty much lasted their entire history. Something that Christianity grew out of 400 or 500 years ago. \n\nEuropean countries have been fine for thousands of years with the people they already have. There’s no need to bring in a vast majority of people who are believers in a ideology hostile to anything non-Muslim. And that is just a fact i

This is very telling and confims what we already knew. Many students are NOT here to study. Most are not. The student visas, which the liberals hand out like candy on Halloween, are simply an easily abused way of getting residency. And the liberals fell for it all hook line and sinker, letting in millions of students who will never leave, and who will then bring in their families as part of the liberal unification. This was their plan all along. Let's face it, Canada does not have an enviable education system. Why would an Indian student pay all that money to come to Canada to go to school, when they can easily get the same education for almost nothing in india? Back door immigration tactics. My kid just started college. His classes were of course stuffed full of international students on the first day or two. Now they don't come at all. They didn't come to Canada to study.
