I have completed my bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, furthermore, I have 3 years of experience in electrical field. Can I apply for a job in canada? Moreover, can you guys please suggest me some genuine websites from which I can apply to Canadian companies?

That's not very Canadian of him. But this actually terrifying, where you turn down a guy and he comes after you and you can't feel safe anymore.

Hey guys, doing good job. Please,Can you make a video on Canadian style resume.

Im a Muslim Canadian, and this is my home. A phobia is an irrational fear, so tell me what have the Muslims in Toronto done to you guys to deserve this kind of hate? Dont talk to me about the war torn nations of MIddle East, talk to me about the Muslims of Toronto!

Why is he let out so easily... Only 2 years? Are you kidding me? Once again, this reveals the true face of Canadian justice system which is absolute worse when it comes to such crimes. When we true Canadians work sooo hard to pay our bills, manage a good life, but people like him get away with commiting one of Canada's biggest fraud is still allowed to live here... this guy has no remorse whatsoever. How is he still here???? The system needs to change. This guy is a criminal and still living lavishly in Canada with millions of dollars. How is he not deported?????? RIDICULOUS!!!

Canadian: I’m not your friend, buddy\nAmerican: Don’t call me your buddy, Guy\nCanadian: Well, don’t call me your guy, fwiend \nMe: What are you guys talking aboot?

This guy gets to stay. Many kids get deported back for selling $10 weed. What a broken system. He should be deported as well. Canadian Justice system sucks. The other was listening to 640 on the radio. These people lawyer up and probably paying bribe $.

Ahh like that they treat the Filipino in Canada? Salute for that guy..and salute for all Canadian who are in the Philippine now...I wish there's a instant justice...tsk tsk tsk not only for him but all racists!hope one day you can counter its same your attitude and its well..damm!I can't breath

You are one lucky guy to be an American i wish i could live in the states legally, i'd do it in a heartbeat i'd give up my Canadian status in an instant.

What makes me laugh is the guy thinks he can come to Canada for house, job, food, clothing, with the whole fam damily\nand presto everything is great. Geez how many Canadians have 15 grand saved up. We have many people living on the\nstreets here as is. If I were rich I would find a street person that was willing to work and help him, first.\nTrudeau is a dumb ass that thinks he's Santa Claus with our hard earned tax dollars.

I would love too come across something like this in public!!! This guy would have a very bad day and would not care about any charges I would have brought against me!!! This is the type of sh*t that makes me ashamed I’m Canadian at times.

Most of you guys are something: Canada LIVES of immigrant work force. All of You are just that, immigrants, from an immigrant family!! And yet you are so full of hate. In the country of This size there should be 10 times as many people living. But Canadians protect their comfort, their convenience( favorite word), they don't want to share.\nAnd yet you market yourself as a country open to immigrants, welcoming, nice....it is all a fasade .....

I bet Americans would not stop as frequently as Canadians do to help someone in need. I am American, you guys in the north are just more polite and loving. I’d give anything to move to Canada.

Canadian government caught that guy when millions of dollars deal was over !!! Corruption is everywhere even in the heavens !! No one is 100% honest here !!! Especially this days Chinese people got more money in their pockets then before !!! Obviously Canadian neighbors are concerned too !!!

It’s crazy how I learn from the comments how racist Canadians are. I would never imagine that. So sad, you have to know this guys reality is very different from yours. You are like trump supporters with ur hurtful comments. Be kind to people who are struggling to survive. How many are they that don’t want to work. He wants

Glad the Canada guy said no Im canadian

In Canada there will be low key racism and I have been called the world n- word many times in Toronto but only by Latino Americans, twice by a Mexican in my school, once by Peru guy then by a russian and a vietnamese. But never by a Canadian. In Toronto you will likely face more racism because it's multi cultural than any other city. But you will face racism by people who are non Canadian but more from other countries that have not accepted different races.

I am a European Canadian and I was followed by a black guy working in a Vancouver pharmacy-so it is NOT ALL ONE WAY!~

too late .....i knew a guy immigrated to Canada in 2002 his wife and kid lived in Ottawa and he never lived there ,,,,,he has granted Canadian nationality in 2006 , when i asked him how he has done it he told me you can play with the law, many has Canadian nationality and never lived in Canada ....good luck Canada

Canada? We speak like Americans but look, we say ''EH'' at the end of our phrases. That makes us sound Canadian. If you think that adding a stupid word at the end of a phrase is creating an accent, its an insult for all the countries that have spend centuries to develop an actual accent that makes them sound different from the others. You guys are in denial.

I'd bet when he's killed or bankrupted enough of us with this virus, there will be some real nice furnished houses and apartments available, so these guys can move out of their derelict infested hotels they wrecked . Of course this will be while Canadians that served with the armed services and others are starving, roasting in the heat of summer, or freeze to death on the streets in the winter.

Me being an international student in Montreal some times feel the opposite way people don’t follow me they actually pretend to ignore and talk less bcuz I don’t know French and and I m a brown beard guy lollllll.....but I never mind ...........though 90 percent of Canadians are really polite people at least that I could say after 10 months in this city

Wow! They let the black guy go because the suspect would have been sweating runnning away from them on a hot day. I don't even think US cops let themselves use deductive reasoning when racially profiling. Canadians! a step up even when they are racially profiling. LMAO... but seriously that nonsense is every where

Psychology student here. In the interest of accurate information, I would like to point out some flaws I find with some of the studies in this documentary and question the conclusions reached. I understand that CBC Marketplace are not personality psychologists and therefore cannot be expected to produce the same quality of work as a scientist. However, I think it is worthwhile to think critically about the information in the media that we consume. I am also open to anyone who wants to engage in debating the contents of this documentary.\n\n\nThe following are some notes I took while watching the documentary outlining the individual hypotheses of the studies I think are flawed and descriptions of their respective accompanying errors. \n\n\nThere are three possible research questions, and thereby dependent variables, being answered by the apartment hunting studies.\n1. If there is no discrimination between the white man and the first-nations man, then they should get equal treatment, including quotes and availability, when apartment hunting. \na. Could the gender of the landlord be a confounding variable (perhaps men are more discriminatory than women)? \n \n2. If there is no discrimination between the white man and the first-nations man between Toronto, Montreal, Regina, and Victoria, then they should get equal treatment, including quotes and availability, when apartment hunting. \na. Could total apartments visited be a confounding variable? (4 in Toronto, 3 in Montreal, Regina, and Victoria) \nb. Could the gender of the landlord be a confounding variable (perhaps men are more discriminatory than women)? \nc. They only showed the black man apartment hunting in some of the trials. I am considering him out of the study for consistency purposes. The first-nations man is the only one who got unfair treatment in the footage of apartment hunting. \n \n3. Possible hypothesis: If male landlords/agents are more discriminatory than female landlords/agents, then the white man and the first-nations man will get different treatment at different Canadian apartments in equally diverse cities. \na. Don’t know all the information about the genders of the landlords/agents, not all the footage is shown, but the ones where they get ripped off are male. The others shown are female. The remaining interactions are not shown.\n\n\nThere are also some factors that may have influenced the racial bias survey and, in my estimation, rendered it scientifically unreliable.\n\n\n1. The bias survey and accompanying tests at the CBC attributed the differences between the studies to unconscious racism. What if it was just due to familiarity with certain racial groups over others? \na. The black participants had no bias between European-American and African Americans, supposedly indicating no racism, while the white and first-nations participants did, supposedly indicating racism. Is it possible that another interpretation of this result is that bias is a function of familiarity: that we are comfortable with the majority demographic in the geographical location we live in, as well as our own kind. Therefore, the black guys are less biased against black people due to being both black and living in a white majority demographic? \nb. The participants took the survey knowing the objectives of the researchers was to study racial discrimination. They might have influenced the answers they gave \nc. Whether the participants agreed with identity politics or not was a confounding factor that was not controlled . You can only be racially unbiased biased if you think that racial identity is a means of accurately viewing the world. People who do not believe in the existence of identity politics may answer the questions quite differently, which could be a different reason for the results.\nd. I took the study myself. The words that participants were required to match were a mix of adjectives and nouns. It is known within psychology that nouns have higher levels of imagery. This was not properly controlled and therefore is another confounding variable. \n \nAll the other studies looked fine to me. I welcome any discussion on my observations.

LOL Am Canadian born and raised here LOL ?????? That don't make you Canadian true Canadians are Natives so there is no need to be racist towards anyone we are all human beings and we all deserve respect if you lady don't know the history that is your problem but the guy on Video is right we are all equal and we all pay taxes ??????

I see a lot of muslims defending there culture but what i want tell you guys is indians don't like Americans don't like you Germans don't want you in there country and now even canadians which are considered some of the nicest people on earth don't want you in there country so there is something wrong with your culture and not ours

This sunny guy has con so many of his own China people and ask them to say lies. The lady also thinks the Canadian law is stupid say she is victim. This sunny guy ask her to lie she also follow and lie to immigration so she deserve no mercy either.

We should protect Canadian people. That is why I LOVE Donald Trump, he stand/do for his people and kick out the bad guys.

The guy was absolutely right because sikhs are also radicalizing themselves and trying to be safeguard of muslims where as they forgot whom they worship were assassinated by those muslims, hypocritical attitude by Canadian sikhs these are not sikhs but the khalistanis and they are talking about peace and love?????????

The canadians are as cold as their weather...poor guy got rejected after such a DUMB MOVE .Generally speaking living in the US is way easier than in Canada ,where you have to be a genius (overqualified) to get almost any decent job.Not to mention the brutal winters (except vancouver) Only 2 good things about canada : it's healthcare and safety . Much easier to have a comfortable life in the US despite being undocumented .You just have to keep a low profile and be a law abiding citizen.The american economy is simply the BIGGEST in the planet .So many businesses : someone will give you a chance ...as simply as that !

I totally respect that white guy. He is against sharia law, which any loyal Canadian would. Sikhs don't belong in Canada. Sikhs are more racist than white people.

This guy is a khalistani who gets funda from Pakistan. The canadian politician isn’t wrong about him and its nit right to shut up people instead of answering them.\nI am myself a muslim but I deapise terrorists who defame Islam.

That white Canadian guy needs a slap he doesn't no the difference between the two beautiful religions the racist guy been brain washed by media its not true

? This Canadian guy made me laugh when he said 'wht abt sharia!?' i mean wht about it? Go study about it dumbshit no country is even following sharia law the version of sharia u see in Saudi Arabia is called wahabism and has nothing to do with sharia law if countries followed sharia law the world would be a better place for example western countries for example Canada is following sharia to some extent because they implement laws based on human rights and equality etc forbids today's banking system eg interests and loans based on interests even today's money is bogus and haraam if we were to follow Sharia Law and those are some of the things that sharia teach us

A refugee here. Through my job as an engineer, I'm probably giving back more than what half Canadian born do. Many Canadians just live off of interest in money they inhereted while we work to uplift the economy. Refugees would still rather go back to their countries as soon as the war is over. We're not here to steal your money or anything. I bet the guys with negative comments never had to know a refugee in person. Shame.

So you’ve lived in the US for years and lived in Canada for a year and you still can’t speak English... you break the law everywhere you’ve been... you don’t actually seem to want to integrate yourself into either American or Canadian culture. This guy sounds like a class act

White Canadians have mastered the art of racial discrimination while appearing very inclusive and accepting. .....sorry the apartment is already rented is a normal response for the non white prospective renter. The position is already filled ....to the person with the different accent or non European name. Being followed around the store is standard practice..... Shoppers drug mart , Jean Coutou , Best Buy, Bulk Barn , I mean Bulk Barn , with tons of bulk in bins. At the Royal Vic ....a public hospital in Montreal , the non white patient is made to wait for hours as his file for some reason is placed at the bottom of the pile . At a Club in Montreal the non white guy is told that he cannot enter because of his running shoes. His white friends reports later that running shoes were on display at this watering hole. And then there is the not so subtle case of Ketchup squirted on the head of this visible minority kid who was having a beer and minding his own business. I am the person in question . I am non white and I hold a PhD from Mc Gill . I encountered these experiences as a foreign student in 1982. I visited Ottawa last month 2019 .....you guessed it , Bulk barn at Billings bridge profiled me as a danger to the corn flakes bin. Canada is a wonderful country in many respects but it has a side which whites will not normally see because of the pervasiveness of white privileged.

The first nation guy is more Canadian than anyone else.

I'm really not sure what Trudeau said to make him and other undocumented immigrants buy into this fallacy, but its a known fact that immigration to Canada is strict. Its actually far more stringent than even the US. He also does not qualify for asylum after having lived in the US for 15 years. I'm just confused about this whole thing? What exactly did Trudeau say? Can any Canadians confirm please? Trying to figure out if this guy simply didn't do his homework. =/

Moving to Vancouver was a great experience tbh, I'm of nigerian heritage but was born in Finchley, North London...\nCanadians are friendly and extremely welcoming ( Coming from the UK i found this so off-putting ) lol. Ironically its non-white Canadians i had funny experiences with.... from dating to renting its weird\n\n\nAsians under 27 always asking some crazy questions ( Are you an NBA player ) lol it's cute at first but after a while when little koreans walk up to me talking about ( You look like will smith ) it makes you think... To be fair these are not inherent negatives, But asian canadians alone did treat me weird i found, Indian girls i met all wanted to be with me but where also very ashamed to say so or let their family know, but thats a cultural thing so i understood.\n\n\n Of all the demographics White canadian and native men where the most welcoming and open to me, in my experience.. White women of-course where cool too but that does not really count, especially as a good looking black guy with an accent LOOL you know how that goes!! My Tinder and Bumble were obscene LMAO\n\nRenting from asians while black and Male!? is almost impossible!!! Except they think you have rich parents!! Its impossible in Van unless you are an Arab exchange student lol \nArab and Persian students studying english have no issues renting in Vancouver, for some reason!!\n\nI lived out the St. Regis downtown for a month, Looking for places to rent, i had seen so many places online and filled out applications but never got call backs, asides from 2 group showings i went to, i could not even set up a viewing with the apartment building i wanted... \n\nTill i met an african girl in school, and she told me something i found completely crazy.\nShe told me to make a new e-mail addy and to use my English name when i e-mail, then set up a viewing but to show up with a white friend preferably a girl and that if the owner is asian, i should look around, and offer to pay 6months upfront before they get a chance to ask what i did for work or whether i was a student or not LOL. Needless to say, i did what she said and It worked the asian lady asked me to come get the keys later that day. Its just life, as a property owner they really just wanna size you up, not fair and kind of pathetic but its not inherently evil...

Stupid woman after Christop Colmb you guys clonised thosee lands. Stupid there is no race like Canadian or American

Try to do the same with a muslim guy, he would get same apartment, not for 1350, but for 800 a month and paied by canadians. Shame on Canada and PM truutten.

The guy in the video says he would earn a maximum of 10,000 each month in India, and is happy making 3000 Canadian dollars which is 1.50 Lakh Inr working in basic type jobs. Samaj nahi aara raha 10,000 mein toh aaj kal full time maid aa sakti hai bas India mein.

Those middle eastern guys are way more Canadian than that women

YES .... THEY WONT LET REPORTER FILM OR TALK ABOUT IT IN CANADA IN TORONTO ANYWAY...BTW WRONG GUY TO ASK.!!! RADISON HOTEL @ VICTORIA PARK AND HWY 401 .... WHY $$$$$ THATS WHY !! WELFARE WHAT A JOKE .... JUSTIN TREDEAU IS A PAID PUPPET DESTROYING CANADA !! DO SOME DIGGING IF YOU WANT TO ONOW THE TRUTH ... HE IS ALSO UNDER INVESTIGATION for tampering with a criminal investigation committing fraud the Ethics Committee has already investigated him twice he also gave terrorists who's kills Americans and Canadians a cash settlement of over $1000000 this guy needs to be put in jail also doing a back door deal to sell Auto on transit snv he is a criminal

A Canadian Immigration judge will notice immediately two main things about this guy: 1- No English having lived 15 years in the US & 2 - No specialized skilled labor or higher education. If he ever gets asylum granted, it will be thanks to his kids who will eventually assimilate unlike he ever did and because Canada needs to grow its population that is among the lowest in the world at #43 with 11 per 1000. The countries on that list with lower birthrates than Canada are mostly small islands or tiny countries like Liechtenstein. Why? Because of the high cost of living and raising a child, #1 country is Japan.

This guy is NOT a Canadian. He's a lunatic.

As a legal immigrant and proud Canadian citizen, I'm appalled at such a soft punishment for such a crime. \nThe guy should have gotten at least 20 years behind bars.

Man this guy is a bloody genius!!! However, the Canadian law regarding immigration fraud is very much susceptible to exploitation, it most be fixed, if they don't want to raise the jail sentence, they most at least seize something like 85% of the illegal money from the scheme or even a little higher than that.

They are not immigrants, they are just buying a insurance policy illegally of course. Those people never wanted to live in this country, their optimal goal is buying a Canadian passport (in case of need) without even visiting Canada.\nMost reported Chinese Canadian immigrants are like this, I knew few, they visited Cananda maybe twice in the last 10 years, or some max once a year (for a two weeks summer holiday). They just have money, and they heard from guys like above they can just buy some rights.
