Lefty politicians have lost the plot all to the determent to the tax payers of their countries, What is going on is madness.

As a long time follower of this page... it's time to unsubscribe. You should be able to differentiate between immigration and illegal crossing of the border. I'm a master's student at a top university in the US, my dream is to be staying here LEGALLY and after years of work I want to build my own family and company here. My background is checked before I came here and I'm entitled to the laws here. Unfortunately the situation is really bad with illegals as they have no papers, they can literally go away with everything. They don't pay taxes, they commit crime and don't face the consequences. A guy from my programming class told me his best friend's sister was r*ped by an Afg*n criminal and he's still out in their neighbourhood.

i'll never understand this sort of republicans........ my brothers in christ, you literally have mostly white, catholic nations south of you, wanting to emigrate there, and you restrict them.........\nyour population growing, because of among other things, these immigrants, while chinese, ruzzian, most-of-europe-an are declining........\n\n\nmeanwile, my country will literally give tax breaks, free language courses etc to any descentant currently living in any south american country to emigrate back............\n\nlike bruuuuuhs!

they will do like Eisenhower did but the ilegals only will be the targeted i think those whom paying tax and had already processed will be i think speared as i speculate but we will wait what will they do or plans

And this is what we call, a ladder puller. Now that she was able to become a citizen, rather than helping her family members to get their legal status, which can be difficult, tedious and very expensive, she could care less if the lives they have already spent decades on building here are completely destroyed. She seems to be fully aware that it can be a difficult process, and I personally have seen that it’s not exactly a fair one either. I have seen some people spend not only years waiting on a hearing or a determination, but spend thousands they scrape together on lawyers and obtaining records, while others submit minimal evidence and get a determination in weeks. Instead of admitting that there are problems with the system and vote for people who are actually trying to help, she wants the same system that made it a difficult process for her to stay the same for them. In fact she voted for someone who is going to make it harder if not impossible for them to come back the right way in the first place. Is she not thinking? If they get deported, that is going into immigration records and when that gets pulled up when they apply to come back it will likely cause any legally efforts to return to be rejected. And who knows how long that will stay in their system? Could be years, could be permanent. Biden’s idea to help those undocumented who are married to citizens to be able to apply and get a temporary visa to stay here while they wait so that families wouldn’t have to be broken up by having the applicant return to their country of origin. That was not just a great idea from a humanitarian point, but they could apply for a job that wasn’t going to take advantage of them by paying below minimum wage, with no rights if they are injured. That could help bring local wages up. They would start contributing back by paying their fair share of taxes, and do on. Republicans in red states stopped it though and are suing the Biden administration for trying to do what? Help people and fix some of the issues that our broken immigration system has caused? \nSorry lady, but you earned your family’s ire and whatever treatment you get from the administration you voted for.

but indians dont come on grants..they work hard and pay taxes... you should be worried about ill legal immigrants...

Canadian health care is more expensive than U.S health care we pay for it just the same except the bill is in a different place.\nIf you don't mind waiting till you die to get anything done,I have waited 3 and a half years for sinus surgery and the health care has been paid for through taxes from the start of my life.\nThe waiting is so bad I looked up the U.S what it would cost and I wouldn't be Abe to afford it because our taxes are way too high

If they can breathe they can pay taxes

The Indian community are made up of very nice intelligent people I live in Niagara Falls and the people are very hard-working, pay their taxes like everybody else

Send them all back across the border. We are sick and tired of our tax dollars being spent on millions of illegals who have no business here in the first place. The sheer stupidity of the corrupt treasonous Democratic Party taking advantage of our true American citizens to make them support these millions of illegals through their tax dollars is astounding. We have millions of our own American citizens who need help but yet are denied access that is freely available to illegals. This is why millions of Americans have voted for Donald Trump because he will not stand by and let this go on any longer. The Democratic Party is done deceiving the American people. We have all had enough of the fake news media outlets spreading propaganda lies to help keep the American people in the dark.

Build houses ?? Make it easier to practice.medicine in Canada. If someone has a degree in Medicine from europe they should be able to practice. Housing is too expensive as it is so hard to get permits to build and the government taxes us on building. \n\nPolitics in Canada is as bad as the States or worse nowadays.

Do you know why Trump won everywhere else on immigrants' debate except Washington? it is easy...bc the democrat corruption government is over there. They are team up to let illegal immigrants in everywhere but Washington . They share tax money to each time the introduce the newprogram . For example, they can be a president, CEO and group of staff , each of them take a good salary and people of smerican are poor, inflation and get kill by illegal criminal.\n Washington

Canada should take care of their homeless people first before accepting refugees from the United States since Trump won the election where he will deport any illegal immigrants. My question is: How did these illegals obtain jobs? I’m sure Trump had illegals working for him. Does Trump realize that businesses will suffer when these people are deported because there won’t be anyone hired to do their jobs? Sending these people back to where they came from will cost the tax payers millions because Trump certainly won’t be paying for their fares.

I am a Canadian and suffering badly. Trudeau has to raise carbon tax at least 25 to 50 Percent to pay interest on the debt. Just sickening whoever voted Liberal and NDP!Why? Liberal's are the worst government ever.

Look at those flags, hats, shirts, etc, pretty right? Hell, NO. THOSE ARE THE SAME IDIOTS WHO CAN'T AFFORD EGGS ! Look at the beer bellies. Can't afford milk but can buy beer, right? My taxes go to help pay for your health care. Why do you need it since you don't give a damn about your health to begin with! Oh yea, like trumps non-existent exercise program, the body's strength only has a finite limit it can handle.

The migrants will find a way into Canada because of the government's weak leadership. I was born and raised in Montréal, Québec, and I am still living there. I work as an employment counselor and many asylum seekers (from Haiti, Guinea, Nigeria, Ghana, Algeria, Morocco, Burkina Faso, Senegal, etc.) come to my office (on average 15 per week). Between July 1, 2023 and June 30, 2024, approximately 300 asylum seekers came to my workplace. An overwhelming majority of them are receiving welfare and living in hotels, at tax payers expense, while homelessness remains an issue in the city. Canadians should be taken care of first!

Canada is over-regulated and over-taxed, and turns increasingly to the public sector to perform essential services, which greatly inflates the price of those services. A sort of positive feedback look has begun where any political party who creates public sector positions and promises to maintain them gains the allegiance of a powerful unionized voter block, essentially for life. But in order to pay the workers they need to raise taxes, which negatively impacts private sector growth, investment, and profitability. It is not possible to sustain the growing public sector at the expense of a dwindling private sector for long. Scaling back the public sector payroll is difficult, however, because it's just not as easy as laying people off due to their powerful unions, and the fact that this would be seen as a signal of a weakening economy, further scaring off potential investors. I would propose that no new public sector positions be created without eliminating old ones (essentially halting spending and taxation increases without creating a massive unemployment problem) until the year 2050 so that the balance between public and private sectors can re-establish itself.

Welcome to Canada tent ciry food banks where millions get there food line up for hours taxes and rent so high our prices of food doubles and triple US

‼️Take back Canada‼️Did you hear Hong Kong pathway policy? \nWe are local citizens. We are not satisfied with the hk pathway policy, why can they enjoy the same benefits as our locals ? \nIn the past, people who applied to become a PR had to wait at least two or three years. During this period, they had to pay international student fees and then transfer to a work permit step by step, or join the investing immigration program, and then start to enjoy the benefits after becoming a PR. However, as soon as the hk pathyway people landed, they enjoyed the same benefits immediately as the locals(liked free education, local student fee for university, Child care benefits) which the locals felt were unfair. The days they (hk pathway people)contributed in Canada are very short, and the benefits they receive are far greater than the taxes and contributions they pay. The locals just feel that the benefits they enjoy today are indeed the contributions they have made to society (including paying taxes) over the years. It is reasonable to get a reward for how much they have paid and contributed, but it is unfair for those Hk pathway people to enjoy the same benefits as locals. \n\nThe hk pathway temporarily policy need to be amended. They shouldn’t receiving full benefits as locals while waiting for PR, they should pay the international student fees. Also, too many hk people abuse this policy, use fake academic qualifications to study, and then their whole family receives CCB , also enjoy local students is unfair to our locals. By the way, most of them after getting the PR they will go back to Hong Kong,they have no intention of staying here and make contributions to our country.\n\nThe HK pathway is a temporary policy. The immigration policy can be revised at any time just liked study permit has mandatory amendments and additional condition recently . The Hk pathway can also be amended.

My youngest son would not be alive today if he was born in the states. rare heart condition had multiple heart surgeries and spent 6 months in ICU at Children's hospital. My wife and I although working would have not had health care insurance. we did not have to pay a cent. Now as a family who makes a very good living 180k a year I am happy to pay high taxes to support families who are going through the same things

For everyone here blaming the government. Who rans the country is not just the PM but a bunch of them including the opposition.I am not defending anyone, I am just putting some light on the financial situation we are all in. NOW lets remind everyone about what everyone seemed to have forgot about it, which is our external debt and which is what has put our country in the situation we are now. By the end of the 2024-25 fiscal year, Canada’s total market debt is expected to surpass $1.4 trillion compared to the USA which is of 17 trillion In March 2024, don't think we are doing that bad.\nEvery day our debt grows by more than $100 million, and every second, Canada pays more than $1,200 in interest.\nThere is more that just paying taxes. WE HAVE A DEBT AND WE NEED TO PAY IT OFF.

A very nice woman with pathetic math of living jn her adorable country squeezed to leave the loveliest place for her due to unwise tax policy and unsolved ordinary life. Among all the wrong things bound here I would remind that at bad times we have courage to veer the torrent of good for new direction. It is the time to change and be patient cause success is always keeping slow move. I also know that loveless relations between people spread the world and bring devastation to souls. That's a pity that we mostly do nothing to retrieve it. But future is future and we will do that perfectly. My belief is my core thing inside me.

Canada should increase tax to beef up the border security

They're not asylum seekers theyre pan handling free money from hard working tax payers.

I'm Latino from Texas that voted for Trump and I'm not ok with this approach of deporting people that have been in the US for 15-30yrs. I'm here because of Ronald Reagan, went to college have been contributing over half a million a year and paying taxes and my family have never asked for any money from the US. There are many like myself that have family members that will continue to contribute to the US.

They keep talking about losing a huge part of the workforce with mass deportations. So Americans aren’t looking for work? I’ve worked for Amazon for 3 and a half years now. I transferred from Va back home to ny last October. In va Americans are being hired. In ny Amazon is literally hiring nothing but Haitians. We hire a hundred and twenty people every year between July and January for prime and peek. I promise you without any iota of exaggeration, every last new hire is Haitian. I know of plenty of ppl who have applied to no avail. They really need to say if you’re American don’t apply. They get tax credits for hiring them. And because of this they do little to no work because they know nothing will happen to them. So all of the work falls on us . Out of the 120 new hires this year and last year 115 are under 27. They try to alienate us , intimidate us,and are extremely rude to anyone who isn’t Haitian. These are young people who are on straight gang time. I’m a black man telling you this and I’m from the street. It took me 6 years to finally make 20 dollars an hr, they come right over making the same as me while I’m working harder to accommodate their lack of productivity and at the same time hope I don’t lose my job for standing up to their rudeness and intimidation tactics. But the media will have ppl convinced that these are hard working meek and humble ppl just trying to make a better life for them and their families. I’m 45 years old and every year of my life we have always had a block party every summers end . For the last three years none. Because my neighborhood has been inundated with migrants who don’t care to assimilate.

Funding the Woke Agenda at Taxpayer Expense \nThe responsibility to spend the taxpayers’ money is the key to everything the government does. The Constitution makes clear that the government is supposed to only spend funds on things that benefit all Americans in carrying out the enumerated powers. \nUnfortunately, the budget has been used to fund the controversial and partisan policy agenda and the institutions of the progressive movement, at the expense of the American people. \nAs the budget has grown, government has too, with politicians and bureaucrats exerting control over the most personal aspects of the lives of everyday Americans. \nThe American people are fed up with their tax dollars being used against them. \nInjecting Divisive DEI Into Every Aspect of Government \nPresident Biden has attempted to inject controversial and divisive diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) race, sexual orientation, and gender identity- based policies through every aspect of the federal government. \nThese policies are antithetical to the very founding of our nation, which is based on the principle that “all men are created equal.” \nFederal agencies have been required to develop “Equity Action Plans” to describe how they will take into account race in reallocating taxpayer funding through contracts and grants to politically favored groups. The administration explicitly states they are “embedding equity in the everyday business of government.”\n\nSOURCE, HOUSE BUDGET COMMITTEE

A different angle : Because of mass Ive , huge , flood econimic migrants , forests will be first to go, soil , fish ,( fresh water ) , land fills extended with new ones on horizion, open spaces gone, water spoilage and shortages EXAMPLE California has sunk 2ft. Because of same , ' junk ' plants were trees once grow , air quality slightly diwn shifted , swamp land with , farm lands shifted in to strees mode , wild animals beging only in so called ' parks ' , Example - the Ganges River considered a holy sight , Is a swere , beachs ,wild fowl decimated , the amount of cement and polution will be exponent numbers . . . This is not junk science, it is just down the road \nWith the more obvious, taxes, medical, housing, jobs , etc. Etc. Problems . Last note, jobs are Canadaian not hindu, seek, Muslim, k as listani, Arab, African etc . Their relatives are on the \n Boat making the numbers coming here also exponential. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH . Polilver, jagmet, trudeau , the 3 brought this on with a hopelessness to Canada citizens.

Is to late to fix government corrupt and policions money left country from temporary workers u don't pay taxes

You fail to recognize the millions that work under the table for cash in every area of construction, tax-free.

how the illegal pay taxes?

Every dog will have their DAY he need to give out more money and stop the WAY. Trump did not finish the wall the frist time. He must going to use tax payer money to send them back.

How you all like Newsom raising gas taxes yesterday 2.00 a gallon on gas

Hours??? Bitch I’ve been waiting 20 years and I’m still here working hard, paying my taxes and doing my part. Typical idiot that got what they wanted and turn their back at their people. You will NEVER be white!! Stop trying so hard to fit in. .l. Pinche vieja pendeja

Tax payers are overwhelmed. We don’t want anymore immigrants. Enough is enough. I don’t believe a word Freeland says. Trudeau made this immigration mess he can clean it up.

The government will have to build hundreds of jails to put millions of immigrants and they will need everything any jail need, guards, doctors, nurses, security systems, etc. , and all that means money from all taxpayers, because there is not way to arrest anyone and be deported right away. The taxes will be so much that millions won't be agree with that and they will stop working and that will destroy completely our economy. We can't just work to pay taxes and higher prices for everything. Please just think about it. If you only think to destroy others because you just hate them, take a moment and think about yourself first. What will bother you more a ugly brown immigrant cleaning floors and bathrooms or paying a lot more for everything.

Birth rate just over 3 million here while retirees are over 6 million per year! Need workers for jobs! Especially ones that most citizens will not work! Means less FICA taxes cuts to Social Security means more government housing, food stamps and government healthcare enjoy the stupidity!

This is going to be a big disaster!!! It will cost hundreds of millions and they will still come running back over and over in even bigger mass!!! He thought it was going to be free and simple??? Then he has to give billionaire their huge tax break, then he will try to destroy social security & medicare & etc.

fix your own countrys..if you pay tax and have a great job here...good..you can do it back in your own countrys..thanks your not welcome here

Democrats in the 1800s: we need slaves for the economy you can't free them or everything will collapse\n\nDemocrats in 2024: you can't deport illegal immigrants or the economy will collapse.\n\nYou know illegals and the people who employ them don't pay taxes right? They are just basically used as cheap and next to free labor.

The private sector detention center are going to make a lot of money. There are doing so good. It’s just going to be a large transfer of wealth. American people are going to pay a lot of in taxes. I promise it’s not going to be paid by the rich. Also be prepared to buy double for all produce and labor for construction projects.

They wont actually do it. That would require effort and planning and money. It was a talking point for voters. Not an actual promise they intend to keep. \nRemember: The ONLY promise Donald kept in his 4 years was a tax cut. He actually failed to produce everything else he said he would.

So glad our president Trump is stopping the funding of illegals… get rid of the freeloaders of the world who walked into our country and drained our resources already. Wait til the nuts that support Kamala get a tax increase… it’s for funding the illegals…

Before you deport, look up to data how much they pay in taxes

Amen! Use my tax money to deport illegals! I also think we need to put an end to this idea of duel nationality. That's part of the reason so many minorities still feel alienated. You're an American, not a Mexican American.

Aight ill leave just give me all the taxes and social security I've paid for lol

I am a double hater cant stand Trump and I am a farmer, i dont use immigrants because i just grow crops that can be mechanically harvested and I have a small farm, But in the past I used to manage large farms where we had a lot of immigrants most were illegal and people don't understand why they're illegal It's because there is an arbitrary cap on how many migrants can come from Guatemala and Mexico if they wanted to come legally just a normal worker They have a 60-year waiting list so it's just impossible to come here legally. Most of these people are very hardworking good people that come here to work for 5 to 7 years save up money and then go back to Mexico or Guatemala build a house and start a business in their own country. \n\nThis year i begrudgingly voted for trump because for me the biggest issue is with the federal and state regulations that make farming much harder than it needs to be especially regulations on diesel engine emissions that cost me tens of thousands of dollars a year and many months of not being able to use my equipment that I spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on. And Kamala was the one who enforced the CARB emmisions standards that diesel engine manufactures have to comply with to sell into California which is the biggest consumer of these engines. \n\nLike right now I have my pickup truck that's been down for 6 months because of emissions problems and so many of the vehicles have emissions problems that the parts to fix it don't even have an ETA because they need to fix so many trucks and I have two other tractors broke down that I can't use all my friends that are farmers have a lot more and dems want to significantly increase emmisions standards in 2026. \n\nYou simply can't grow food at scale without reliable diesel engines There is no alternative The vast majority of food is planted and harvested mechanically in the US The bigger issue with food is not well illegals get deported It is will the diesel engines run to harvest 90% of the calories in plant them. \n\nWe have robots that can milk the cows most of the things that migrants harvest can be harvested mechanically and they are in other parts of the world It's just cheaper to do it with labor once that's not the case it will be mechanized. I would prefer to keep migrants here but give them legal working status if they have productive jobs and they pay tax.

Trump isn’t going to do anything about anything. He’s going to wreck the economy and incite violence. Tax breaks for the rich and corporations and the bottom 98% will suffer.

I say give the latino community what they voted for even if it means getting rid of 100s of thousands of tax paying citizens who happen to be illegal immigrants who am I to tell the latino community what's best for them? Puerto Ricans were forced from their homeland due to Hurricane Maria and resettled in my home state of Florida they overwhelming voted for Trump in 2020 so I say let's help our fellow Americans by not complaining feeling bad or commenting on mass deportation they voted for it and they clearly know what's best for themselves

Get to Massacusetts. Governor Maura Healy will not deport illegals. She says illegals are safe here in Massacusetts. Come one come all. The Governor is opening her home to all illegals. Get to Arlington Massacusetts in a hurry before Trump picks you and your family up and deports you. It’s all free for you in Massacusetts. Food clothes shelter medical dental glasses and yes debt cards. It’s all on the Massacusetts tax payer says Governor Healey. Even tattooed face gang members rapist thieves child traffickers all welcome. Oh by the way Cambridge Massacusetts the home of Harvard University MIT and Senator Elizabeth Warren borders Arlington. Beautiful place be sure to visit or stay as long as you want. Enjoy Harvard square.?
