Trudeau is a joke. He has betrayed Canadians. I am an immigrant, i went to college, paid a large amount of tuition, did 3 degrees, and then got a job. These people are cruising without skills and using your resources.

Bringing over temporary foreign workers (tfw) to fill entry level positions for less than a citizen is paid is a betrayal to both.\n\nYoung Canadian citizens are locked out of entry level jobs. Tfw end up making nothing or losing money because everything is so expensive.\n\nStop letting corporations exploit Tfw and refuse to hire citizens.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that when you let the amount of new immigrants into Canada in the last 3 years that exceeds the total immigrants admitted in the prior 10 years, you are going to see major shelter inflation. Couple that with a low-interest rate policy post GFC and leave rates for that low for that long and you are going to witness an epic housing crisis. But not just that - these new immigrants become fodder of cheap labor that pushes out our very own Canadian citizens from these positions, with the more marginalized ones ending up on the streets. \n \nThere is a Motel 6 in my neighborhood that has been taken over by the Canadian government and converted to temporary housing for new immigrants. All paid for by Canadian taxpayers. Why isn't our own government using these funds to fix the housing crisis, or help it's own citizens with more affordable housing but instead they continue to exacerbate this problem by letting a huge wave of immigrants that overwhelms the Canadian infrastructure. More proof? Notice more locked up goods in your local stores? The demand shock has pushed the cost of living for everything from food to shelter that these Indians who are these same new immigrants are resorting to shoplifting, and extortion! \n \nIf you are going to bring in immigrants to prop up Canada's aging demography at least tighten your admission standards and bring in more educated ones, with more liberal, more considerate and more courteous dispositions. Trudeau has got to go.

How can this not be a simple civil application? “Your honour they haven’t paid rent in 3 months since we gave them the eviction notice. The lease is expired. We would like them to leave for reason ABC.” ….proof given. Eviction notice provided. Done.

$900 to share an apartment (even 1 bedroom) is not outrageous. I paid that much for a 1 bedroom when all prices were half what they are now.

Very deceptive formatting of this video. Starts with the harsh reality that jobs and housing are TERRIBLE for people who have just migrated to canada, but then end it with clips of already rich immigrants who paid their way to the front of the line.

Yea... tenants take advantage way too much. Canada, hurry up and fix this glitch, that way us landlords aren’t paid not enough and that’s acceptable?

I have been in the US on first as student and then on h1b for past 10 years, paid atleast $800k in direct taxes, my 2 kids are born here, but still process to Greencard/Citizenship is a distant dream!! Legal Immigration in this country is Broken!?

My family moved here in the ‘90s, legally. My parents paid thousands of dollars for residency applications and other legal fees, which also didn’t go smoothly. Our family of five lived in a two bedroom apartment as my parents worked their asses off. We didn’t get handouts or free housing.

The illegals stepped right over the people already here that need help and the government rolls out the red carpet for them,it makes me sick because I have been homeless for four years and I can't even get food stamps and ive worked and paid taxes my whole life

This came up in my feed, I'm in England ??????? and I've always rented as finances have never really been enough to get on the property ladder. I started off in a Private rental and thankfully I'm now in Social housing with an Assured Tenancy so it would be extremely difficult for the housing association to evict me and they have to prove to fault in court and they can't serve me a no fault notice. However rent has always been my number 1 priority bill, when I rented privately I had a Standing order set up with the bank and they drew the money out every month to pay the landlord. I set it so they drew it 3 days before the rent payment date and to account for weekends as banks don't pay out on weekends. In England ??????? rent is classed as paid when it leaves the tenants account not when a landlord receives it, so that's why I set up to leave 3 days early so it never debited late. Now I live in Social housing and it's been fantastic for me and my needs and I'm super lucky as there isn't much social housing about here anymore. I now pay rent by the method requested by the housing association which is direct debit and I pay it on the due date now as direct debits are credited to your rent account on the actual due date even if it's a weekend and then bank draws it out on the Monday. Rent is so important, I can call the housing association if anything is broken or not working and they send someone to fix it without any extra charge to me as it's all in with the rent. You have to pay your rent and if you can't afford it then look for something cheaper and give notice to your landlord.

BTW - 70K students are left and right being told about now apply for asylum. Also asylum seekers are being paid 800 to 2K every month taxpayer money too. Though with Pakistan government, Canadian government may be cooking something. We are just on UK path, run by loyalists.

Mass uncontrolled migration is a deliberate attack on our way of life and news outlets like the guardian are paid to lie to us all about it's intended purpose and consequences. Never forget that.

2 billion make $2 a day... they can fly to canada work illegally 10 months then fly entire family in and get 6 figures for child benefit so they can get paid 20-50x what they were making and not even do anything ... socialist dictator treason THIS IS TREaSON the pure definition

I would have given the food to a homeless person and paid for it from my pocket

Ridiculous, 2nd biggest country in the fkin world and it has population problems. Is it the immigrants' fault? Or something else behind this? I'm an immigrant from Vietnam. Am I part of the problem? I've worked my ass off in this country, paid insane amounts of taxes. Do I not deserve a place? I came here alone, not with a village. But some people are doing that and causing major damage. And I get bunched up with them and have to suffer the problems I did not cause.

U sound educated no doubt paid for by Cdn taxpayer. Pay us back and then bye bye we wont miss u

Holy crap ? she makes those of us that paid all our rent and lost our belongings to renovictions look bad.

This is a big part of the reason why we have a housing crisis. Nobody wants to invest their money in creating rental units if they can’t collect rent, so that reduces the supply of rental units. Less supply equals higher prices. Landlords also have to charge more to account for potential lost rent in this system. So in the end the stolen free rent is simply paid for by other renters who get passed on the higher prices

If a thousand renters work together, they could avoid paying $41,600,000 that they would ordinarily have paid in rent. Using that money, they could start a credit card company. A credit card company doesn't have to extend much credit to one person, and it can charge high interest rates.

I would put clause in rental agreement if rent isn't paid we can move back in, move anyone we want in with them.

More propaganda paid for USA than USA is the victim closed the border finished USA scam

For me. If you are going to be a landlord. The unit you have must be already paid, if its mortgage dont be a landlord. Because if its already fully paid, whatever happens at the end of the day its still your unit, and the landlord can still sell it the future for the higher price. I am still in favor of the law for the tenant, because this landlords, they tend to put higher price whenever they want, specially those under the table, what ever the trend they can increase the price, or depends on their mortgage interest. It happens to us before, our rent is 800, then next year they are asking for 1,100. So we just moved out, then they rent the place for 1200 for the next renter, now we rent in a legit apartment who follows the percentage each year of rent increase, so we pay on time.

So I'm wondering here if the tenant has not paid utilities, why is the landlord still paying to keep lights on. can the landlord not pay utilities and just have the lights and water turn off?? And this will then kick the tenant out?

Back in 1998 I was laid off and waiting for U.I/E.I to kick in and send a cheque and was 2 months behind on rent, they had me in L/T Tribunal Court at St Clair/Yonge before my 1st cheque was mailed, I wasn't kicked out but had to agree to pay my full rent on the 1st from that point and $200 each month on the 15th til I caught up on arrears (took 1 year) if I had been late once on either date they could have re opened the L/T Tribunal case and kicked me out. If I couldn't have paid I would have moved out, that's the difference between those born before 1990 and after, morals and having a conscience, lacking in most Millennials and Z's because X mothers didn't want to discipline their 90s babies or make them responsible adults.

Why are rents so high? This is a part of it. All landlords must include the risk of not getting paid for years. All renters pay for people like this. Leftist policies hurt everyone.

The girl who hasn’t paid her rent for 4 years is a underwriter for a mortgage company. I can’t believe that!

I'm sorry, but if a tennant hasnt paid in 3 months, landlords should be allowed to evict and remove the persons belongings from their property. The fact that this isn't considered theft blows my mind.

My god how lucky am I? Tenant always paid rent on time and moved out when I asked them to.

Please add to this the many homeless healthcare workers who have great educations and are not paid the best and are told to wait for housing because there are more people coming to the country and the homeless healthcare workers are the ones who are taking care of the newcomers who are housed while the healthcare workers are asked to wait - some are even MD's who are waiting in their country of birth because they are self-employed and have to pay overhead , staff and medical equipment and supplies. Please let's house our homeless healthcare workers in all the major cities.

neighbor rented a house to a couple she was a teacher he was a nuclear power worker both good paying jobs they paid first and last and nothing more for 2 years he ended up paying them $10000.00 to move out so he could sell it before he lost it ....the LTB isnt on the landlords side this is why rentals are hard to find.....better off to use air band b or not rent at all

The tenant has not paid rent or utilities for 4 years! The Landlord /Tennent Board is a joke in Ontario. The tenant is playing the system, she knows the Landlord /Tennant Board is an ineffective government organization. Why would anyone invest in a rental property in Toronto? You could wind up like these people.

Another billion will be paid for war in Ukraine but no money for basic things at home...

I'm an immigrant. Do you guys know how much I paid for my wife's college? 40k dollars. Do you guys know how much Imy wife and I pay in taxes? Almost 3k a month to the government. The problem isn't immigrants. If there were no immigrants, who would pay for citizens' college? Or are you guys going to start paying 40k or the full amount?

This woman wouldn't do this if the police could remove her within a month for non payment of rent. The appeal process is completely unjust. Landlords own the property, paid for it, are responsible to care for it. They should not have to bear non-paying squatters occupying and often damaging their property.

I always thought we should pay Mexicans to stay in Mexico and make Mexico great. Instead of us paying for everything under the sun for them in dollars, we could have paid them in pesos to build housing, rec centers, community centers, churches, hospitals, roads, etc .. .. I'm all for helping people, and being charitable. I don't mind helping people but for God's sake we don't spend 80 million on a city budget for helping the homeless. Yet we roll out the red carpet for those who aren't here legally. You citizen Joe/Jane in America have to follow the rules, yet groups, orhers, etc DON'T?!? BS.

Yep a disaster with no hope in sight. And if the mortgage doesn’t get paid the bank says no problem right.

And if the mortgage is NOT being paid . The bank will get possession of the property.

0:50 y-you paid the immigrates to come here. What do you mean challenges?

Former luxury hotels now turned into dumps. Nice. \n\nImagine a massive city where 50% are paid by the government to live there. Doesn’t sound sustainable to me.

The First Americans were pushed off lands and given Casinos Europeans were the first illegals acting like they didn't cross a whole ocean to get here and if they do build a wall its not to keep people out but to keep you in but nobody's worried about a National debt that no one will be around to see get paid off America it's always someone else to blame one side to every story regardless if it's the truth or not

People from india, philippines, china paying thousands of dollar to government and colleges infrastructure, and who are refugees coming from ukraine get paid by government its failure of government.

Corporations and businesses want an increasing supply of cheap labour. The real estate/development industry wants a growing market. The International School industry lobbies for increased numbers. Canadian governments have failed the citizens of Canada who sacrificed, paid taxes and literally built this country. Replacement Theory is a reality for many Canadians these days.

Glad I moved back in my country in 2021. When I Was in Canada I paid anything from my pocket

New York you get what you paid for

I live in Niagara Falls all my life. I can’t afford to keep my self and son fed without assistance or barley keep the lights . 10 mins away they are living in hotels, getting food, diapers. Hygiene all for free as well as a monthly pre paid card or cheque from 1800-2800 a month… I’ve lived here and payed taxes for over 30 years. Where is my help?

I would want to come to America to if they paid me 8,000 a month.

?pray that you dont divorce and have to paid alone your rent or morgage if you find anything...

Paid for and encouraged by democrats , got to get those voter rolls filled up
