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.

How exactly do you expect me to fit in? I've spoken English and lived here since the age of 2. I celebrate Halloween and Christmas but not Pride Month, and I don’t eat Canadian food regularly. If fitting in means doing all those things, then I have questions. I thought living here meant I could eat whatever I want and celebrate the festivals I like, such as Eid or Diwali, without anyone interfering. As long as I’m not causing trouble—which I never do—why should anyone dictate how I live?\n\nBeing '100% Canadian' is impossible for me because I prefer staying true to myself. This has been my country for a long time, so telling me to 'go back' makes no sense.\n\nAlso, let’s not forget how Canada’s history involves forcing European traditions onto Indigenous people. In the end, aren’t we all dealing with the same issues? For example, I’m not coming here telling anyone to convert to my culture, eat my food, or join my festivals. I respect others’ choices, and I expect the same respect in return.\n\nAnd by the way, if anyone feels 'forced' by certain communities, like Khalistanis, maybe that’s something to take up with your government—they brought those people here, not us. those are the the one in no fly list that your gov decided to take in and give them citizenship and causing trouble and being violent

Canadian expat living in Asia. Just returned from a visit to Canada. While spending time with family and catching up with them was awesome, I couldn’t wait to be back in Asia. I’m enjoying a lifestyle here in a tropical beach that would be unreachable in Canada. Eating out all my meals, going out, attending cool events, flying frequently to nearby countries for a weekend or week or weeks at a time. Eating clean healthy food, meeting inspiring and friendly people. Typing this from the beach on a Sunday morning while enjoying my big freshly squeezed carrot juice cup that I paid 60 cents for! \n\nCanada only for visiting once a year. \n\nSave money, work remotely or better yet, learn a high income skill and live anywhere while making money online is the new FREEDOM PLAN. Get on it while you can!

Mexico will close their border on Jan. 20 2025. Canada should like wise. Trump might have a problem with those illegals that have guns and will be fight to stay in the US. Either way it makes great news.

‼️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.

Canada is often perceived as a land of opportunity and comfort, but my personal experience told a different story. After living there for over a decade, I made the difficult decision to leave for several reasons, each of which compounded my struggles and ultimately led me to seek a better quality of life elsewhere.\n\nThe Incident That Sparked the Change\nIn 2017, I was attacked in Toronto, leaving me with a broken nose. It was a traumatic experience, but the frustration didn't end there. When I reached out to my doctor to fix the injury, I was placed on a waitlist. For years, I followed up, hoping for progress, but by 2023, I still hadn’t received a call for the surgery. Each time, I was told the same thing: a shortage of doctors meant they couldn’t help. This highlighted a stark reality of the Canadian healthcare system—while it is publicly funded, it is often overwhelmed, leaving people waiting for years for essential treatments.\n\nThe Harsh Reality of Living Costs\nLiving in Canada became increasingly unsustainable for my family and me. Despite working hard and earning less than $100,000 annually, the cost of living pushed us into a debt of over $70,000. The financial strain was immense, forcing us to sell our home just to clear the loan. Even with this sacrifice, our lifestyle remained stagnant. We hadn’t taken a vacation in ten years because there was simply no room in the budget. Owning a home or enjoying basic luxuries felt like an unattainable dream, and I realized that continuing in this cycle was not a viable option.\n\nChallenging Weather Conditions\nCanada’s harsh weather was another factor that wore us down over time. The long, freezing winters and short, unpredictable summers made it difficult to enjoy outdoor life or maintain a consistent routine. The mental toll of enduring such extreme weather year after year contributed to the decision to seek a more temperate and enjoyable environment.\n\nA Need for Change\nAfter ten years of struggle, it became clear that the current conditions in Canada were not conducive to a fulfilling life. The combination of healthcare delays, skyrocketing living costs, financial stress, and unforgiving weather made me question the sacrifices I was making. Life is short, and the realization that there are other places in the world with better systems and opportunities prompted me to take action.\n\nWhile Canada has its merits, it’s important for people to reassess their priorities and make decisions that align with their well-being. For me, leaving was a step toward reclaiming my life and creating a future where I could thrive, rather than just survive.

Everyone is an immigrant in canada except the indigenous people. Being born here makes no difference, your heritage is not here. There is no such thing as canadian culture but American culture, anglo saxon culture, french culture..stop fooling yourselves

There are a lot of scammers around the world. It is in your duty to identify them and never fall as prey. It's not Canada's fault that you are getting deported for false information. Scammers are getting better every time. It is your duty to do your own research so you won't get involved into this mess. Yes Canada immigration also needs to screen the application very carefully so this type of nonsense will not come to pass. If you fall prey to scammers that is your own fault for not doing the right thing or even following the right process. You guys like it easy then Canada will make it also easy for you. DEPORTATION. I am an immigrant myself and we followed every single steps to become an offcial canadian citizen. It took me years to become a citizen. And I am not just talking about 3 or 4 years later, but 10 years later coming from a skilled worker.

Too bad Canada, we sending them your way, make Canada great again.

It would be much higher if it was worded properly. Your Diwali is not here to replace our Halloween. Respect Remembrance Day. Canada is a Christian country, and we do Christmas here. If you dont like it, leave. You have to assimilate. Practice your things in your home, not publicly in the middle of the night breaking the law and leaving your litter in parking lots when you finally finish making a mess. Dont litter. Stop polluting. Respect our wildlife. Respect our culture, you are guests

Canada is a multicultural country that welcomes people from all backgrounds. While it’s great for immigrants to keep their own culture and traditions, it’s also important for them to connect with Canadian society and values. This balance helps everyone feel part of the community and makes Canada stronger and more inclusive.

What did people think when Trudeau said he wanted to make Canada the first post national state?

Immigrants should adapt to Canadian culture. Makes no sense how they can move to Canada but refuse to assimilate.

Have fun trying to make ends meet in Canada .

Canada has more lakes than its human population. Just a large landmass does not make a real country. With only a fraction of the U.S. population of 350 million, Canada could be vulnerable in trade disputes. To be more influential globally, it would need about 150 million people, achievable only through immigration, which would inevitably impact cultural traditions.

The U.S should be helping migrants make their way to Canada

Canada makes things right now. thank you,

I've been replaced 4 times by foreigners. I worked at Amazon and the entire huge warehouse of hundreds of people was only East Indians with only me and 3 other white people. I worked at Ballard and the entire production floor could not speak English at a elementary school level and was replaced by a guy from Iran who had never been to Canada and was in the country for 1 month. All the shift mangers were from Iran and my section was only Iranians, East Indians and Chinese. I was the top production worker by far doing the work of 4 other workers proven by the actual numbers in an attempt to keep my job but still got removed of course to make way for more Iranians because it was obviously a way to bring their people here. Zero locals were in the entire production floor. I can not have the dignity to own my own home and never will be able to even though I grew up here went to collage and university and worked hard. Rent is beyond insane and they raise it the maximum legal amount every year which is huge. All my life I had to bow down to foreigners. The locals have lost their homes and can not buy another house or could never buy one and never will be able to. All are slaves to foreigners who think they are superior and treat them like garbage. The foreigners get help from the government somehow and get loans they never should be able to get because they have crooked contacts in the Chinese owned financial institutions. They then build 5 to 10 unbelievably horrible illegal suites and that is where most of the locals now have to live in. The neighbourhoods went from a very low population of Chinese and East Indians to insanely high levels such as 98 percent. There is no sense in complaining to any government body because the Chinese and East Indians have infiltrated those key positions and always side with their own kind. The legacy news/media is fully aware but are owned by foreigners and never will talk about these issues. Canada has for sure been invaded and taken over and is lost. No one is bringing it to light and worst is no one is trying to fight it. Any attempts you are labeled as a horrible racist.

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.

Problems of other countries we are not responsible. Canada cant even solve the opiates problem in most major cities in the country. And yet, to solve these problems canada is actually asking for more problems. Does that make sense?

MAKE CANADA GREAT AGAIN! replacment theory is real, these people are literally taking over our country. Shut it down.

I am a Nigerian I always wanted to either move to the US or Canada because of my career (I want to be an actress) but I looked at the expenses the money I could use to go to Canada just to go into debt after 1 year I could use that Same money to Make my life better here \nI think I just want to visit other countries rather than moving there

CBC why Canada’s making massive

Good job by canada..indian students coming here r just spreading hate and agenda of hindu govt. Better in india n follow RSS ideology to make India world power ?

Very very soon the canada govt will roll it back. Its economy is due to Indians, indian students and other workers. Canadians are lazy people who dont study hard, dont make many docs or engg or other professionals and are enjoying social security. They are less in number, that's why the country needs people from the outside

Many people have commented here to change India and make it livable instead of dreaming of Canada but let me tell you, ideally it is very welcoming and patriotic thought to make India top class country in the world in all respect but keeping current politicians standards, democratic model and caste & religion discrimination, it is next to impossible to implement changes. China has done despite massive population because it has hidden dictatorship and there are no inside traitors. Many entities within and outside India are doing their level best to break and shake India. \n\nI am from Canada, I just arrived in India on vacation. It disturbed me a lot to see trash and garbage everywhere ( especially on Kurla-Andheri-Mankhurd) on the streets from Mumbai airport, the town planning, landscape, traffic, road quality, people's civic sense (and many more things to mention) are in worst shape which is not a sign of good quality life. Especially when you enjoy lavish, luxurious, clean hygienic, sustematic life style abroad, you naturally tend tobe fascinated with that country, no matter how much patriotic you're. Somewhere people make the problem, somewhere government or governing bodies and somewhere both. \nForeign visitors must be experiencing what I experienced. That is why we Indians are always become victims of hate and criticism abroad.

Is Canada planning to save all illegal delinquents because they are being thrown out of the place they broke in to? Why not make Canadians come first?

im sick of canada acting like they wana help everyone but dont help there own country problems .if they come here we will have the same problems that they had with it so makes no sense.and the lady saying canadians will choose who comes in .r they guna ask us .its insane really

Hopefully these Islamic terrorists about to be deported out of the US won't make it into Canada, we have enough of them already.

No room true Canada be homeless imagination get more payment from government Canada get less to support them deport have to make changes

I wish Canada would build a wall at our southern border, keep out the 75 million maga people unfortunately both America and Canada need each other but your orange con artist is going to try hard to disrupt the long good relationship we have had it’s to bad hopefully we can make it through the next 4 years

Why are canadians asking for a separate land in a country thousands of kms away where they dont intend to settle down..why not make a separate khalistan in canada itself where they ll live..

Listening to you guys definitely makes me want to come to Canada. With everything going on in the USA. As a family of multiple races it’s scary now.

Good decision for both Canada and India.\nNow India has to make all those visa aspirants to pay More money going to Canada. Atleast 50% of their tuition fees.

I am Canadian and hopefully when Pierre becomes the next Prime Minister of Canada we will see deportations these evil Islamists terrorizing our citizen's and shouting deat to Canada make the deportations happen. We stand with ?? Israel.

You should say, Canada is, and has been, bracing for an invasion allowed by Justin Trudeau. You all do your part to make it seem normal, that we have to allow ourselves to be invaded.

Obama deported more people than any other President in history. Did that ever make the news? Did Canada need to “brace” itself? Nope. Nope.

Hope Poilievre makes Canada great again. Don't send your looneyToons here. When he gets in, We are getting rid of our own!

Canada must do the same, make Canada Canada again.

Canada bout to make this our problem happily.

I'm moving to Canada ... somewhere. It's very confusing. \nWhat would be nice would be a check off list for each territory (you could do it FIRST) with features. \nAccess to water within 10 miles \nCity library \nMuseum \nSnow removal \nGood schools \nPastry shops (I know this isn't a priority, but if you make the system easy enough people will do it for you.) \nRental prices more than 2,000 \nRental prices more than 1,000 \n \nGet the idea? \n \nI'm retired, financially well off, love reading, no kids (or grandkids) does Canada want me to move in, spend my money? Then make it easier. \n \n!I could click off my choices and have a list of small towns / villages.\n\nI have 6 pages of scribbled notes so far

???? nothing new… racist in Canada only comes up when Trump either running for election or elected… in 5 years, they will all slowly disappear. Trump is like a health potion for white people. ???? \n\nPeople of colour, just be patient, in 5 years this will be under the rug, it’s better to take note, who is racist or NOT, and make up your own judgement.

Every country has requirement to come into the country.. but Canada just tales in anyone and we wonder why the country turns to shit.\n\nImagine a sport team that takes on the worst individuals. \nYou want the best people that have value and skill to make a country great.

Canada can not accept illegals.\n\nLike it use to. Make immigration policy tight. \n\nRequire \nUniversity degree or skills education in a sector that requires workers.\n\nHave a job lined up\n\nHave enough funds to rent transport and min of 20k

Canada has many issues now, my friend is also making great videos on that https://youtu.be/fPHdMKBPAu4?si=MzQu8dNC2bGDVRnc

Alot of Pollievre love. But one word he hasn't used is Deportations, if elected. And he should. He should and must make it his day one policy to take Canada back out of the Global Migration Pact. O'Toole danced around that question when I asked him. Instantly I knew he was not in politics to represent Canadian voters.

First step is done, Donald Trump is President. Next step, Pierre Poilievre for Prime Minister. Time to take back our countries! Let's make USA & Canada Great again! ?????

I’ve been thinking about moving to Canada for years. There are many advantages and disadvantages to America and Canada. I just want to make sure it’s not a ‘ The grass looks greener on the other side of the fence’ situation and then find out a ‘ I never thought of that’ situation.

Try to claim asylum good luck.\nWe're not taking any more, not for a long time.\nIm 5th generation I can actually say that and I have family that is in the military and fought in world wars\nFUCK OFF!\nBounty hunters going to make a lot in the states in Canada going forward.

When we immigrated to Canada we had to pass english exams, health checks and paid a lot of money. We came here and are grateful to be here. We did not come here to demand that our culture and religion be respected. We gave this up. If they can just walk across the border then all those who paid should get there money back.\nWe did not demand any help. We worked our buts off to make it work.
