For a really long time drugs and people have been using the same spot, Ever since the days of prohibition, a the federally-recognized government of the Saint Regis Mohawk Reservation at Akwesasne. The territory under our jurisdiction lies south of the border dividing the United States and Canada, you can drive in the Canadain side and come out in the US upstate New York,\nAug 2, 2016 — Organized crime uses the highly porous Mohawk reservation as a conduit for illicit cargo, Oct 28, 2017 — Some Mohawks resent any presence of US or Canadian law enforcement in the reservation , they are letting the people pass no matter what they're bringing and don't want any law enforcement to even step on their grounds, so maybe their making money that way...

Just saying. All the crossings points in canada like roxham roads and all were one way in..all of undesirable being shipped up north from the south..16000..lets say you sent about 3 millions in those buses being drove in vermont/maine..so pretty fair as far as deal goes..we can send you those 3 millions if you want..our country been shh since we had the nafta agreements.

Western Canadian here. Our current liberal government opened immigration to bizarre levels over the last several years I believe to get more liberal voters. Our country is in a bad way and don’t blame Trump for clamping down. Trudeau and now Carney are quite happy to keep the WEF plan going. Hopefully we get a common sense conservative government in Canada soon !

way more illegals came into Canada from United States. they crossed through mexico into the US to fucking Canada after! LOL

Why fly all the way to Canada and need to walk 65 miles to the border when u can stay in Canada and get free health care\nMontreal is cold but way nicer than NYC

How. How? Last time i went to the Canadian border, they check passports coming in. Is no one on our side checking them coming the other way? Doesn't canada check passports etc when you FLY IN to canada? Thought i heard they wouldn't let you enter canada without the covid vax... ? but if you're on the watch list you can still enter?

Canada can keep them this sick Canadians let them in and push them our way

No surprise that 80+% of illegals that are on the terror watch list come through Canada, they get funding from Joe Biden by way of Iran....

Really. And haven't we been swearing up and down that migrants (or terrorists) HAVEN'T been entering the U.S. by way of Canada, for, 25 years or so now?

Trump knew those sanctuary pukes would ignore his orders. That's why he went after Canada and Mexico to help plug the dike. \n And he stopped the flow of money that funded this bullshit and lined pockets on it's way.

illegals are going both ways at the NY, Vermont and NH borders. Probably more entered Canada illegally there than the US.

By the way, it's interesting that you're all getting your knickers in a twist over irregular migrants, most of whom wind up working and supporting you at some point (or their children do), when (apparently) you seem to believe you have the same problems with fentanyl coming from the true north. I think that drug thing might be more pressing if it's crime and chaos you're worried about...(you get less then 0.2% of your fentanyl from us, by the way and fewer then 2% of migrants to the US come from Canada. On the other hand, an estimated 70% of illegal migrants to Canada come from the US, right up there with the fentanyl, actually. Oh and we keep having to deal with all the illegal guns from you, too.

facts more people cross from USA into Canada. this info is so wrong all the guns an drugs come from the USA up into Canada mexico is the other way. this is a joke keep cooping

A lot of illegal aliens come to Chicago by way of Canada too.

I am a white Canadian have family and friends in the USA and I tried to move to the usa back in the early 2000's because I had a job could not do it because I was not allowed but it seems if you are other then white it is so much easier and everyone said I should go now because Trudeau is a dictator and that I am a law abiding Conservative that wants to leave Canada because our PM is nothing but a POS Liberal that is robbing the hard working real Canadians and cutting us off of having a good job because of DEI. They want blacks and browns to have all the high paying jobs while the rest of us get shafted into working for Min Wage or a little bit above while we get taxed to death. and if you look at all the homeless in Canada it's all white people and nothing but it's like the scumbag Liberals want the whites to live homeless or just scrapping to get by below the poverty line. It's really sad that this Country is going this way and wish Trump would come here and just clean out the liberals and Woke POS and send them to live on some abandon Island allong with the criminal Illegals because I am so sick of the BS. The Illegals are taking right over and they are the ones that are killing the people off with the drugs too.

Immigrants fly to Montreal posing as tourists. The airport border patrol officer welcomes them with a smile, wishes them a nice vacation and stamps their passport. The immigrants make their way to the border somewhere between Maine and New York. They sneak across the border at night. The problem is that Canada lets everyone in as long as they have something that resembles a passport. Canada needs to stop the open border “immigration to all” system at the international airports and shipping ports.

If they make it all the way to Canada, I don't understand why they don't want to stay there.

I'm from Canada, and unfortunately, our liberal government is letting this happen. Believe me when I say the rest of Canada feels that way. We have no way of sharing our beliefs because this liberal government has shut our media down as well. Canada has been under socialism for a while now.

I find that hard to believe. I went to Niagara Falls going into Canada with no problem coming out of Canada was ridiculous. There was some border guard there, he thought he was special forces, the way he was dressed. It was ridiculous.

I live in Canada .2M went through Canada o their way to USA

THAT'S NOT TRUE! its not even true what he says, there was 2100 that passed in 2024!! he doesnt even say what time period he is talking about.\nFor migrants not to enter usa, usa have to protect their side of the border. Our job is to make sure nobody enter canada, not the opposite!\nThe other way around is effing true since Don Cheetos is in office. They all want to come here bfore being deported!!

Okay there are only three ways into Canada, so how are these illegals getting into Canada? Or did they enter Canada legally (visitor visas) to try to jump the border?

If we stop the government handouts and welfare and start arresting criminals then illegal aliens are not going to be flooding the country trying to take advantage and robbing our citizens every way possible. Canada is supposedly going to make the 5 million or so migrations go back to their home country, but instead the vast majority of them are probably going to try to get into America illegally.

Canada is a global hub of terrorism now. US never had friendly neighbors …just greedy ones . The moment US shuts the flow of aid money, they become terror hubs. A way of blackmailing.

Entering New York City from Canada? You mean NY state? And do you know how many stragglers Canada gets off yall's migrants? Let's call a spade a spade, the left governments of both nations caused this mess and let in WAY too many people in who shouldn't be here. And worse, they breed like rabbits i.e they multiply

You know how you fix the problem. Anybody harboring in any way or helping in any way should be put in jail for a minimum of 3 months instead of putting the criminal in jail or the illegal, you send them back to Canada. Or Mexico or wherever they came from and the person that tried to help them has to pay by sitting in jail for 3 months or longer. A second offense, 5 years, a third offense life. They'll stop helping at that point

dont forget the ny govenor was busing illegals to the canadian border at roxham road so its not only canada,it goes both ways,,,lets get that straight americans

I would think more pass from USA to Canada than the other way around.

I see Canada is making great effort to help stop the flow... like they said they would. \n\n(That's called sarcasm, by the way.)

I am of Indian heritage and from what I am seeing around the world its disgusting how Indians are behaving, its made me ashamed of having that heritage and its not just in Canada, they are destroying the reputation for all Indians, and you can't just say its only a small percentage. I was born and raised in England in the 60's, we respected the culture, and country we were in, and would never see this kind of behavior that we are seeing today. Indians were known for being quiet, and respectful, and especially never loud like the way they are today, this blame I put on India itself for not maintaining its culture and respect around the world, this is shameful to see I don't blame other cultures for this mess, this is why Indians are being rejected around the world, its not a coincident.

Forget Canada too many Indians everywhere send them back they will destroy your country the up bringing and values are so different they belong in India although they are not bad people they can not integrate full stop. \nThey will take over your country and jobs within 50years just take a look at the Uk \nBy the way iam Indian

while other countries (US, Canada, UK and some European countries) get their visa to India very easily, we Indians have been suffering this visa issues for as long as i can remember.\nTime for our Government to strengthen this visa and maybe treat other countries the same way they treated us.\n\nthats my one rupee opinion ☺

Good choice. We are on our way out too. The Liberals have made Canada toxic.

I lived in Montana for five years moving from Ontario Canada. I returned after five years because your legal system is a joke. Healthcare is so expensive living in Canada’s way. Better get free healthcare which to me is the number one top thing.Canada has free health care everyone in need can get welfare low income housing the disabled have disabled people a paycheque each month that covers their bills and food costs. I came back when I had my daughter her dad‘s in Montana. I am in Canada now. I lived there for five years and the people are very judgmental. I find and drugs are so much more accessible in the US. I found the racism just blunt in the US Like people don’t even try to hide it jobs in Montana at that time I was making three dollars an hour minimum wage when we were getting paid $10 an hour in Canada at that time so minimum wage is way higher

tyler i don't think u realize how bad the usa education system really is. i'm canadian but have lost count of the number of usa teachers who have complained about how bad they are held back from teaching kids properly, how kids can't be failed or held back, how kids graduating gr 12 can't read or write past gr 6 level. in fact recently there was a statistic put out that something like 60% of ALL americans cant read or write past gr 6. considering all your universities that is terrifying. not to mention with gun violence, straight up violence among kids and at teachers, the disrespect and the severe lack of good parenting, kids are not being educated at all. u yourself have done videos on where someone interviews americans and asked them questions about canada and they haven't got a clue. not one clue. yet canadian kids are regularly taught all about their american neighbours. are kids know more about america then american kids do and thats shameful. u need to do some research on this because unless u live in a rich gated elite community and go to private school the public education system in the usa is very dismal and woefully inadequate. \nalso he's right about politics. here we can discuss it rationally and then move on to other topics. in the states ppl are shooting ppl over differences in politics. beating ppl up trashing their cars and property etc. and many police are definitely not presenting themselves with professionalism tons of racism going on. and so many police because everyone is armed. here in canada we are not allowed handguns and pretty much ppl only have hunting rifles. it takes a lot of work and clearance not to mention time and money to take the necessary classes and get the necessary permits to even own a hunting rifle. in the usa show a drivers license and wait 10 days u have a handgun no matter how mental u are. therefore u need way more police than here in canada. i think u have a well to do upbringing so u have not and do not see the true picture of the america u live in. \nalso i have talked to many american friends who had insurance and still cost them about $5000 per birth of a child. with good insurance and working full time. so thats about average. here in canada u pay nothing except maybe parking for hubby while he visits.

I’ve watched a handful of your vids now and just some honest feedback since you seem pretty chill but you talk about the US like 38 million people don’t live at or below the poverty line and like 26 million people don’t have health insurance; like your food standards aren’t some of the lowest of one of the wealthiest countries in the world; like a child’s life only matters when it’s attached to a woman’s autonomy, but once it’s born even things like gun ownership take precedence over child welfare.\n\nThe people who suffer from these issues the most are probably not people you see all the time because our cities and rural spaces are organized with economic segregation which creates a disparity in tax revenue across different areas, resulting in underfunded public services in low-income neighborhoods, while wealthier areas receive more resources, creating a cycle of inequality and limiting opportunities for residents in poorer communities. \n\nSo honestly it’s great that you are trying to learn more about Canada, but you seem way too comfortable with the state of things. Maybe start a new channel where you take a look at some of these topics because you genuinely do seem like a curious person. Godspeed and I hope you become radicalized soon.

I like Firstpost because she usually says it like it is. But this time she’s way too biased and went straight to play victim. Doesn’t she know how in places like Australia and Canada thousands of Indian people on temporary visas have taken to the streets to protest that these countries want to “deport” them when their visas are expired and they decided to overstay their welcome? Also, Indians used to be pretty quiet and kept to themselves… At least where I live! But lately they’re more and more unruly, and act like they own the place. A good dose of self-awareness wouldn’t hurt her.

All those lamenting on the state of Canada and planing to pack their bags and going off to another country, to another continent... Do not forget that you are able to do that largely due to the fact that you are a Canadian citizen, holding a Canadian passport. How many people are willing to give up their passports to live in some Asian country for example, in the Middle East for example. Not many people for sure. Having your cake and eating it too, doesn't always work out the way one images it to be.

Canada is way to woke\nOver price homes and any drugs is ok .\nTks Liberals, you sure know how to turn a country upside down.\nCanada ?? used to be bilingual, now, where bi.. al\nGid helps us canadians.

I ?? went to school in U.S. & lived there for a brief moment in time afterward. Couldnt leave fast enough just didnt care for it, other than the cheap booze & made some great friends. ???\nThe U.S has a great divide of either rich or poor. \nIn Canada majority are middle class which i really appreciate. I have many great friends & relatives in America my grandnfather was American & moved to Canada he said he didnt like the American way of life whatever that meant IDK. Im grateful for having the privilege being born & rased here....\nGood luck to both Americans & Canadians to find a way to escape these dictators we are all oppressed by!!!\n ?????

The commentary here sounds so much like U.S. citizens griping, it's almost funny, but also sad. Maybe Trump the ignoramus is right... do Canadians really want to give up and just become part of the USA? I doubt it, but if you're in any doubt as to where to live, don't try just south of you. It's got all the problems you mention and then some. And of course it's still a great country; I was born here and live here happily. But I've also been to Canada four times since the 1980's, and each time I am just wowed by the many ways in which Canada seems ahead of the USA. The grass truly is greener on the other side of the fence... just be aware of what you have, and that you have an amazing country, too. Griping is now epidemic in the United States... it doesn't lead anywhere good, and it accomplishes nothing.

I am Québécois, and things here are quite different from the rest of Canada. For example, we have a law here that clearly forbids wearing religious signs when in a position of authority. Even a teacher, because they are a figure of authority for their students, could not wear the Roman collar, a cassock, a hijab, a niqab or anything else of the sort while in school. In the streets or any other public place, there is no problem at all. Everyone is welcomed to express their difference of culture or religion in the way they dress or in whatever other way. They are treated with the same respect and kindness as anywhere else in Canada. It is only that the separation of religion and state, and religion and authority is paramount here. Everybody is free and can express themsleves freely. But don't use that freedom to impose your views onto others. \nSo, when American judges are chosen for the federal court specifically because of their christian fundamentalist biases, it doesn't resonate well at all for me or the majority of Québécois. When the rights of the LGBTQ+ community are being questioned or jeopardised. Or a previous federal judgement like Roe v Wade is being overturned for religious reasons... it is a definite turn off for all of the Québec people to even remotely consider the United States as a destination to emigrate to (supposing that one would want to leave our beautiful country).\nMore and more, America, that used to be recognized as the land of the free, appears to be retrograde and restrictive and definitely not so free.

We are planning to move to Canada with a work permit through our company in India. Is it safe to move that way? Is it only bad for students or Indians in general?

Basically, for the past four years, Biden, Harris and the Democrat Party have spent hundreds of billions of US tax dollars flying illegal immigrants in and basically leaving America’s borders in Mexico and Canada wide open to mass illegal immigration. Then they lied to the American people about the real numbers and how bad the problem really was. In the past few years, the Democrats have spent billions throughout all of our federal agencies via misappropriated US taxpayer funds that were earmarked for American citizens or American infrastructure and development, then used these misappropriated, taxpayer funds to provide housing, food, education, medical care, and in most cases, luxury hotels. Just within the past two weeks FEMA spent over $500 million to provide luxury hotels for illegal immigrants yet a few weeks ago they were still claiming that they didn’t have enough money to help American citizens who suffered catastrophic loss during recent hurricanes and wildfires. The simple fact that Democrats got more upset that Elon Musk bought Twitter than they are, that their own political party in government for the past four years, has literally been holding them at gunpoint and forcing them to pay taxes so that they could steal it or launder it into their own campaigns and pockets is literally disturbing! WTF!!!! If any of those other federal agencies are ran or funded the way U.S. AID were, with the massive corruption, misappropriation, fraud and theft of taxpayer funds, then I hope DODGE goes through an completely audits, every single federal agency in the United States. No wonder the Democrats are freaking out the way they are, if the Republicans got caught this bad with their hand in the taxpayer cookie jar, then you know the Democrats would be screaming a different tune. The Democrats are trying to manipulate taxpayers into believing utter nonsense like their phrase “ no one voted for Elon Musk. “ but in reality no citizen ever votes for the hundreds of the civilian presidential appointed positions to run these federal agencies, every new president pics/appoints to these positions every term. It definitely explains why hard-working tax paying men and women are getting completely ripped off and robbed every time they look at their paycheck and see how extremely and unnecessarily high taxes are now. The Democratic Party has completely destroyed its reputation with the American taxpayer, they got completely exposed for their corrupt, anti-American, extremist, radical,and woke liberal agenda. They were absolutely using tens of millions of US taxpayer funds to finance terrorist organizations like the Taliban and Isis, billions of US taxpayer funds, pushing their racist and sexist woke liberal DEI agenda across the globe, they were absolutely bribing corporate news media to control the narrative and manipulate the American people to influence elections via corporate news media subscription payments to very left, leaning news organizations, such as politico and others, that were clearly and obviously bribes to the media, just one of the NGO of many organizations under U.S. AID paid $75,000 of taxpayer money a year for a Digital subscription to politico’s corporate news outlet , that any one could sign up for $10 a year like any other news outlets digital subscription. The list of fraud, corruption, and very obvious US taxpayer funds theft, just goes on and on and on. I think the worst betrayal of it all is the fact that any US tax paying citizen or to steal one single US tax dollar from the government, we would be publicly arrested, put in handcuffs, charged with a felony, and prosecuted to the absolute max, the law would allow, but these Washington elite politicians are allowed to do this without even a public slap on the wrist is the most disgusting and devious, betrayal, and loss of trust that the American taxpayer has ever known.???????????????????????????????????????????

International students from India are the very cause of the housing crisis in Canada, not to mention that they come with little money to survive and also have caused the big shortages at the food banks which were created by the citizens of Canada for the less fortunate citizens of Canada and not by international students who can't pay their own way because of lack of money. The jig is up, bye ? Bye ? to the disrespectful, rude and shameless students from India. ?

Yeah, Canada is not a real country. By the way. It happened during 1931. When Canada got the chance to become a country, Quebec didn't want to be a part of it so therefore it was not an official country. That means the people's right Constitution didn't go through. Each province can easily leave and join America or become its own country. That's why you see province to province have tariff on each other. Then people complain when US puts 25% when Canada is ripping themselves off.\n\nAll Canadians tax money is bribing Quebec to stay attached, or else Canada will easily fall apart from any direction. Facts!
