Canada has one of the world's toughest immigration laws no surprise here. Again typical liberals love to virtue signal and never really have solution they just want to feel good about themselves.

I was born in Seattle and left to Canada (married) when I was in early 20's!  This then was a good change for me as Vancouver was a great city compared to Seattle, moved right downtown and had a blast so for a young person (then) was great.  Met some great people from all over the world and had health care, medical/Dental etc.... I worked in the greater Vancouver area for 8 years and it was tough, very strict, and did not help that I was from the states, white bread Canadian seemed a bit jealous that I was there, sometimes not very friendly.  The Europeans I met were actually better to deal with and I got along quite well with them.  The cost of living was about the same as in Seattle.  After about 8 years being in Canada and working hard I saw America booming and the Canadian dollar was as low as $.62 cents (in late 90's) so I took my craft from Vancouver and brought it to the US just across the border, I became much happier working in the States, I took a little bit of bs but not bad from some that I had a Canadian accent (go figure when I moved up there I had a twang) I really never left the united states I will always be American and I have been still working in the US for over 20 years and deal with mainly Americans on a daily basis from all over the State of Washington.  Depending on where you grow up or end up you should never see a border Seattle and Vancouver have more in common than Vancouver / Calgary in fact most Canadians don't care much for the other provinces.  After 30 years of being part of both countries, I can say that people are people both have great offerings and if you took the best of Canada and America to combine then we would all prosper, there is so much both can learn from each other.  Bottom line:I take the best of both worlds and what they have to offer, yes, I have found less expensive goods in Canada than what they cost in the states.  I have seen it from both eyes, and if you cant be open culturally then stay away.

I am a 16 years old muslim from egypt, and I am saying that what ISIS are doing is against Islam, my relative was in the Egyptian army while he was shot by ISIS terrorists, what I am trying to say to all the world is that ISIS targets everyone, wether a muslim or non-muslim, they keep bombing masjids as well as churches, they keep killing thousands of muslims and christians in many states. ISIS islam is totally different from the Islamic values that I was raised based on as a kid. If the government of Canda wants to fight it, then they should take these steps.\n1- They should have a security cameras secretly placed in islamic schools and masjids\n2- They should have a security bars over the masjid doors to check if any one who enters the masjids has unouthorized materials\n3- They should have a continous and a strong link between the intelligence and the islamic centeres as this may help greatly in fighting back terrorist attacks\n4- They should give muslims equal rights, consideration, and responsibility to those of non muslim canadians as banning something may add the fuel to the fire.\n5- Those who have hate towards the nation should not be allowed in\n6- Measures should be taken to reduce hate crimes\n\nJust to inform you that those muslims who are living in Canada, most of them are either refugees or converts, those refugees have harsh conditions in their countries due to civil wars, thats why they fled the country. In Egypt, were the population is 90% muslim, there are 9% christians, mostly were Coptic Orthodox Christianity, and they are living side by side with muslims peacefully without any violence or discrimination. Muslims have ruled Jerusalem for many centuries and Jews, Muslims, and Christians lived side by side peacefully without any violence or discrimination. Those terrorist have nothing to do with Islam, they are claiming that they are muslims but they are actually not.\n\nBut, what I am surprised about is that those muslims living in Canada that is shown on this videos are very religious and they are a tiny percentage of all muslim population in Canada, In fact, a study survey in France says that before the Ban of Burqa, of 4 million muslim women living in France only 368 muslim women actually wore it, many muslim westerns dont even wear the Hijab except when they are praying. Even of Burqa was banned, this will never reduce the statistics of terrorism.

I am white...I have been followed...I own my own home and was not treated fairly when I bought it...I was once volunteering at a Christmas wrap stand when a black man went off on me for being white. This is such a non productive and crybaby approach to the presence of hate in the world...you're never going to get rid of it...This is just hate towards whites...

Shaking my head, a slow learner uneducated white hillbilly lady who never heard about the outside world, eh. She needs to eff off and mind her own business, done. She is there at a restaurant to enjoy her lunch not arguing to a couple stranger for not speaking the English language. Get lost, ugly piece of waste lady! From London, Ontario.

This is a great documentary. I assumed Canada was very inclusive and multicultural. I never heard about slavery in Canada or racism there. As an African-American woman I want to know all about the experiences of BLACK PEOPLE all over the world because we are connected. Many of our families were torn apart during slavery. Most of us can’t trace our history five generations. I’m glad we have YouTube to find information through documentaries like this one.

Regardless of what your political stance is no country in the world is okay with massive amounts of immigration. Most of these people never assimilate and become productive members of society. No country is capable to support the influx of people, it's unfortunate but true.

For everyone that is angry about the US immigration system, we have some of the most accessible immigration programs in the world. Many countries will never let you become a citizen if you aren't born there and yet we make citizens out of immigrants everyday. You just cant sneak in and hope to wait it out, though. Go through the process, learn the language and assimilate properly.

Racism will never be gone because it's a normal part of humanity. It goes back to when we were hunter/gatherers and for safety you stayed with those like you. In the modern world it gets twisted and used for hatred. So really racism isn't the problem , hatred is.

When we learn to look upon one another with compassion regardless of their race, religion or personal belief's and look instead at the heart of an individual, only then will we make strides to heal and to connect one another across Canada and the world. There's an overwhelming racism borne of intolerance for one another and intolerance is borne in my opinion often of fear. When we don't understand someone, we do tend to make up something to line the box that we force someone to live from but would never accept the same for ourselves. If you see someone being berated, being treated differently then you yourself would accept, you owe it to yourself and to the one being hurt to stand up and to intervene. When attitudes change, people change. Blessing's.

America is not all about war war war and guns just because we have a big military jeez! And not everyone here has a gun, there are some people that just don't like them for different reasons.\n If you come to a place like Texas yea just about everybody here has one I do, but there are still people even here that don't like um. You can't be an expert on another country by being there 100 something days. And I don't understand where everybody has this impression that all Americans are fat. Americans come in all shapes and sizes the same as everywhere els and other parts of the country are more health conscious than others. In every state you will find hundreds of gyms and plenty of muscled up fit Americans.\n As for the health care thing, I don't get it either but that was Obama momma and his stupid ideas, he was trying to destroy this country on purpose you know he's a muslim and we will never let one of those bastards sneak their way in office again. Now that Trump is in office he is trying to fix that or make it better some how. I have often wondered why can't we have a healthcare system like Canada's but America spends all of it's money on so many things in the world because of our position on the world stage we just can't work that out, thats what happens when you're the world super power.\n Most Americans have health insurance through their employer, a certain amount is taken out of our paycheck every month and if I get sick or have an emergency I pay a small co pay at the doctors office which is 35 dollars and emergency room co pay is 150 the insurance pays the rest.

Islam is not a religion, it is a political cult movement with the goal of creating a world wide mercy less bloody dictatorship like the world has never seen. Pure Evil with no respect to human life.

it's not the religion.... it's the mac's convenience and the corner stores selling tropicana juice for 6 bucks a liter. It's the family oriented hiring policies and the rural area stores being bought and not offering fishing bait, ice or firewood but instead offering dollar store fishing lures for 20 bucks. it's the electronic stores that sell tape decks and old CD players. The stuff that really makes a bad impression is when a muslim family buys a Pizza Pizza or a subway and then changes the restaurant so that there is no where to be seated and the food is processed by someone who won't look me in the eye once and speaks a language that I can't understand to an employer about my sandwich and i will never know what the problem was. I feel like my spanish and native friends treat me the same as them. I feel like the scottish guy who hates me for not waking up at 5 in the morning is only mad because i'm not working as hard as him. I'm saying that maybe a lot of muslims don't want to be our friends and maybe some do... but it seems like they don't want to be my friend but will message a pretty white girl on every single facebook post with paragraphs of physical praise. i probably get a lot of facts wrong... but that world may be too far away for us to acclimate into each others societies. I'd like it though if we could all live in such a manner where we could feel like we aren't all gunning for a chunk of the world.

A woman constantly covering herself in daylight seriously deprives herself of natural vitamin D, as well as other life-enhancing properties - consequently she passes certain ailments on to her new-born children. This is an outrageous and VERY SELFISH thing to do. Research Dr Michael F Holik world's foremost expert on vitamin D and sunlight. Children born with eg, rickets because their mothers wore  the veil should sue them! It may be a throwback to cultures in hot and sunny climates but should be banned in the UK, like France. Why should citizens pay for medical care for children/adults directly affected by this shortcoming when it van be avoided? There is a Swedish study that also implies a reduced IQ in children born to mothers who are never exposed to sunlight.....

Fastest growing religion, BS!!! The mass immigration of people into Europe could be boat loads of Christian's living hidden lives as Muslims because they'd be kill for stating otherwise in there counties. Check your numbers lady, Migrant doesn't automatically equal Muslim and those who are Muslims are not new to the religion only a growing population of children raise under a particular faith can account for new follower's[The fastest growing religion]also no Evidence that Christian's are leaving Christ by the Church load. Also the under reported numbers of Christians in China, which is 15% Christian not 3%. That's over 100 Million new Christian's in China Alone, can account for new follower as they were never reported in the first place. Tell me again, what is the fastest growing Religion in the World.

first of all we should stop this guilt trip about Muslims. if anybody wants to study Qur'an he she will see the book is full of hate. Muslims want to conquer the world either by converting or beheading. Please people don't be stupid. how is it possible that Canada is selling its own heritage and absorbing ones of any ethnic groups that come here. it should be the the groups that come here to respect the heritage and law of this country. it is the fault of spineless politicians that will kiss the asses of any group that whines the loudest. our leaders contributed to tge destruction of muslim homes by going to their countries to rob them form OIL. Now the gutless, two faced politicians welcome them here and giving them what's ours. I tell you what to do......stay away from their countries, don't send our soldiers to their men, women and children. let them govern themselves. Canada is not fighting for freedom, those countries never attacked us. we follow Zionists, the small group of globalists who want to destroy nations. WAKE up sheeple.

this is propaganda to create hatred to divide human race to make Christian against Muslim, most Islamic extremist backed by US intelligence, they show bad things like Muslim as extremist backed by them self, they never show good things like Qatar Muslim county is the richest country in the world, Extremist is only 1 percent of population, can you make conclusion by seeing the 1 percent without see the 99 percent? use your brain to analyse this don't be stupid and believe everything you hear, don't be victim of manipulation, look the comment see how many people believe it how easy to manipulate people

Each and every where propaganda against and the bad people helping western world funding them by American Israelis to destroy Islam, Flag by Muslim can do any one, any one can say Allah Akber after killing and making harm to humanity, how you can judge that they are real Muslim or they are having Muslim mask to destroy Islam. But sure they will not get success in the game soon all will know their plan and and they will get down down, never get success in their plan sure Insha Allah.

We are to blame for what is happening now. Way back in 1992 We started letting them in in droves ....there was never this problem in the post World War 2 era Europeans didn't want to use the system to their advantage and reshape it to their ideology ....its to late the cancer on the way we lived has metastasized

If a black family were to move next door to me I would have no problem with inviting them to my home and welcoming them to the community, that is the way that it would be in any Newfoundland community. Newfoundlanders were never racist and never will be. If you don't believe that, ask the residents of the burin peninsula community's that helped ALL od the war heros on the Truxton and Pollocks when their destroyers went ashore in St. Lawrence and Lawn, Nfld.during the second world war

My experience in Canada has been largely positive, with only minimal racial difficulties.  As a teenager, I do recall some kids making blatantly racist comments, when I was the only minority in the room; but they were silly girls, popular and full of themselves, and most of the students who heard did not laugh with them. We all knew it was wrong.  Another time I was told, by an agent, that a potential employer claimed she would not hire me because of my race.  I did not hear these words firsthand, though, so it was impossible for me to verify the truth. In the end, I let the matter alone. Other people,  I realize, have endured severe injustices; such have not been my experience, but this does not subtract from their reality.  Indeed, racism does exist, and shall remain as long as there are imbeciles wallowing in the mire of ignorance, people who cling to an absurd sense of superiority for lack of something more meaningful to hold.  As well--and it must be said!--quite likely, we all have, at some point, entertained discriminatory thoughts. 'Tis not a 'black and white' problem but a human one, and we must be mindful of it beginning with ourselves.  Canada, then, with its many inhabitants and complex history, will never be the exception. We can't expect perfection among people, here or anywhere else in the world.  Even so,  I believe there are enough fellow Canadians who strive to treat people as individuals and are happy to make friends across cultures.  My life has been and continues to be a testament to that!  Whatever our troubles, we still retain a proud heritage of diversity and progressive ethnic harmony.  We do try, and for this reason I love my country.  I am deeply patriotic and immensely proud to be part of it!

The communities are trying to tackle the problem of these patrols themselves???  They will not prevent them because they all secretly want them as do all muslims, They will never be content until the whole world is crushed under the hate of islam.

I REALLY HOPE THEY WILL NEVER INVADE IRAN! IT WOULD BE CATASTROPHIC!\nARE YOU BLAMING THE JEWS FOR THIS SPECIFIC AGENDA? MUSLIMS ALWAYS BLAME THE JEWS FOR EVERYTHING!\n\nMUSLIMS THEMSELVES ARE THE ONES RESPONSIBLE FOR BEING HATED AROUND THE WORLD! THEY CANNOT BLAME SOMEONE ELSE! THEY NEED TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITIES!

Im sorry what part of the world givers the most aid to under developed country's? The west is superior to any Islamic country, you are blinded by your religion, brain washed from a young age. It's sad really because i can get on with most people, but the problem is Islam is not compatible with Western life and so theres this clash. And the thing is the West has had many internal clashes in the past the strongest system always won, so some backward religion is never going to change anything.

how hypocrite! dont judge about all muslims, but you can very well tell us about US attacking afghanistan or iraq and make the entire western world responsable for that. get knowledge before tellin such a bulls***! common people, even from US, have nothing to do with that, there are lobbyists, strong and very rich people, who you will never reach. but you let your frustrations to normal people. therefore you are bad! islam is a bad thing
