Canada is a bit better but going downhill -- I'm a Brit and lived in both and wouldn't go back to either of them .. \nYou personally will HATE the depressing overcast weather ten months of the year

So they wont take the terrorist into their country but don't want them dealt with? I agree that Palestine has a right to their land. They dont want just their land though. They chant from the river to the sea and invade Israel murdering along the way. If they just staid in Palestine, like this guy claimed they want, there wouldn't be an issue.

I have never quite understood why most Canadians I have met carry this holier-than-the-United-States thing. As it turns out, the biggest source of immigrants to the US in the 19th century was poor Canada and today its people still leave. Canada is not appreciably better than the US, but you wouldn't know from talking to the wanker, deluded Canucks.

If no one wanted to live in Canada then people wouldn't be bidding insane amounts to buy a house lol. People are desperate to move to Toronto and Vancouver.

Lmfao, canadian here, wouldn't live anywhere else, beats the shithole states.

In other words, they want to keep the refugees to use as a PR weapon against Israel, like they've done for decades. Israel absorbed all the Jewish refugees that Syria, Egypt and Jordan expelled in 1948 and 1967, but Jordan and Syria wouldn't take in ethnically Jordanian and Egyptian refugees. Why not? Because as refugees, they can be used as a thirn in the side of Israel.

This is disgusting harrassment. This wouldn't be ok the other way around. Leave then alone. He's xenophobic and Im not fan of religion and have first hand experience with Islam when a Muslim friend was run our of my town by extremist family members and I think she left Islam as a result but this guy does not speak for me. My friend is a good person. My exes who are Muslim are just regular people. Sick of extremists on both sides.

if he is a dictator, and he is being sanctioned by the US, then wouldn't that make the US the bigger dictator???

I'm born in the UK to Serbian parents, but grown up in Norway so I've seen three different cultures in my life all at once. I always liked Canada for being diverse because then I wouldn't have to switch between being English, Serbian or Norwegian, I could be more me because I am basically multicultural. For years I've idealised Canada and it wasn't until just two weeks ago that I got to visit and see for myself what Canada is like. I was in Toronto and also in Vancouver visiting a family that moved there from the UK I hadn't seen since I was a kid. I loved the nature (Especially Vancouver my god!) and the people, but I learned about how extremely expensive housing in Canada is to the point that it would be hard to make ends meet just renting a place let alone buying a house. Also how immigration is out of control and those who do come to Canada are disproportionately from one country being India rather than many different, which is not good for maintaining diversity. This is something I saw having lived most of my two weeks in Mississauga just south of the airport.\n\nI hope you guys finally get someone better in the next election, because I have more hopes for Canada than I do for the UK. Thanks for this informative video!

Your video is great but adding dramatics is too much just stick with the facts don’t say $450 a year could make the difference of paying rent or not , that would literally be $37 extra a month and that definitely wouldn’t be enough to make rent for people who are really struggling.

28-year-old Female Sydneysider from Australia here. Apologise in advance for the long post and rambling.\n\n\nNot sure if it is just me, so please correct me if I am wrong. Just probably now too overly 'realistically too cynical'. So please take my input with a grain of salt. 

For context’ sake, for most of my adulthood I have always been poor & I am born with special health needs (E.g. disabilities).
\n\n\nSometimes on forums we are often contrasted to Canada, for some reason. Both Canada and Australia have remarkably similar problems with a different coat of paint. Sydney, for instance, has always been high up in the list of the cities with the highest cost of living in the world. Usually within the top 10-20. 

COVID-19 obviously made this issue clearer in some circumstances because we couldn't 'work' at all. Unless you were an essential service worker, to mentally block out personal and local difficulties.\n\n\nWe still have not recovered from that 2–3 years global shutdown. The only reason I was allowed to work for a period was because I work for the animal industry and aid in animal welfare. 

I still lost my job due to COVID-19 regardless and knew I would never get a decent job again. Merely just the last poor sod on the boat to be thrown off. 

Could not become a vet nurse despite working very hard. Just because no one wants to give me '2-years permanent paid experience’ to be taken seriously. 

At the same time, way too many employers will happily take 2+ years of veterinary students volunteering at their vet clinic. With the vague promise of a permanent job.

Which, of course, never happens, then say we are being too demanding or spoilt for politely asking for said job.\n\n\nHow are we supposed to pay off our student debt if any financial service expects us to have a per meant job to pay anything off??

 No, they do not want to train nor help you. They just want free labour, then kick you out once your time is up. All my jobs have been casual, and my animal industry has already become heavily casual based ages ago. Permanent job is like looking for a magical unicorn.\n\n\nSo, even if you and your relatives lived in the way outer suburbs of Sydney for decades, being typically considered roughly lower-middle socio-economic families. 

The younger adults and kids all know and have been aware for years, they have no future at all due to having an inflated cost of living. Sugar-coating it, saying it might go in a positive direction, sounds like a blatant lie. We all know it is a lie.\n\n\nNowadays, in contrast to the late nineties and early 2000s when I was just a tiny naive kid that didn't know any better. There seems to be a more jarring split between the income brackets of what the country assumes who is poor, middle class or rich today. 

\n\nBy today's standards, my family is no longer even considered close to the very lower end of the middle class if you were reaching hard. We are considered 'poor' just because my parents do not earn roughly $50,000 — $150,000 AUD a year on their own in 2023. When I worked, I usually earned $30,000-$35,000 AUD or less per year before COVID-19 happened.\n\n\n(Source — https://www.news.com.au/finance/money/wealth/middle-class-aussies-were-living-better-in-the-early-2000s-than-they-are-today/news-story/fe173db5bbe2b705a8d05df8c5cb14ee)\n\n\nLife is only comfortable living there if you're a selfish landlord, a nepo baby, new money or old money.\n\n\nI feel like most governments and other systems are only strictly being run by sociopathic narcissists that only want us to stay poor to remain in poor conditions to benefit off of. Wouldn’t want any kid to be born in a world where there are no safe guarantees for their future if their guardian unexpectedly passes away or can longer care for them. 

When something does not change within roughly 5–10 years, it is more than simply just valid for us to feel like we cannot fix what has been broken.

I still wouldn't live anywhere else, Canada is awesome

I wouldn't want them people either.

Dont worry Canadians those who left werent the brightest or the best. 90% are working menial jobs as they wouldn't even get that in india. \nNot because they're not talented or skilled, but a flawed reservation system along with lack of jobs in India drives them away .\nTheyll migrate back when they get some jobs in india

Maybe hamas and the Palestinians should stop firing missles into Isreal and they wouldn't be killed in defense of Isreal

You wouldn't need any of this if you did not start a fight.

The true shame of this whole situation is that this very eloquent and thoughtful Arab diplomat speaking this way and explaining things this way this should be the American position and all the state department personnel should be reflecting this position exactly it should not come from the Arab world this should be coming from the United States of America and forcing the Israeli government to stop their genocidal agenda an ethnic cleansing. I never thought in a million years that we would be living in a world where our own government would be condoning the genocide of anyone but then again when you look at our history I was very naive to think they wouldn't

Since 2016, many International Students started coming to Canada and they moved to Brampton in particular so they wouldn't have to assimilate into Canadian way of life. I'm a Punjabi kid born and raised in Canada, who grew up in Brampton. Brampton has gone to the shits post 2017/2018 when all these International Students invaded Brampton. The older Punjabi families are moving out of Brampton and are moving to other towns, while some of them rent out their old homes in Brampton to International Students. Old Punjabis are suffering from this the most, maybe you should've interviewed Canadian born Punjabis or Punjabis who have been in Canada for dozens of years instead of interviewing some new comers and a couple crackheads. Not only are these new International Students fucking up the neighbourhoods we've been living in, they've ruined our reputation that our parent's/grandparent's generation worked their ass off to establish in Canada. Maybe Trudeau or whoever the fuck is in charge, should raise their standards of what kind of International Students can enter Canada and have a more difficult English proficiency test. Canada wants Internation Student money, but at what cost? They let in a bunch of buffoons who have no respect to the Canadian way of life.\n\nThat being said, you kind of showed a biased perspective, you interviewed a bunch of crackheads in downtown Brampton. The Sikh Gurdwara you showed actually feeds 100s of homeless people everyday. Gurdwaras all over Canada are contributing more to society than any other religious establishment including Churches. Sikh Gurdwaras give free food to anyone who visits the temple, even during corona virus they would give out packages of free food. I've seen many homeless people getting their food packed from Gurdwaras.

Smh ??‍♂️! Regeneration is the church where all the addicts go to get their last meal! It's hopeless for them ?! I know that area very well and something needs to be done about it! Those people need to be told about somewhere else not just that area! They're taking all the jobs in that place ?! No one is able to get work if you're not Indian! All the Tim Hortons, fast-food and factories, all Indian! They work for less which is what makes it hard for people who lived here for their whole life to be paid accordingly! Plus they drive up the prices of homes ? in the area with all the buying and reselling! They don't buy to live they buy to create slum houses! Now they expect normal Canadians to live like them! No one better not talk to me about living like that ?! It wouldn't end well!

If I wanted to read I wouldn't be watching a video.

Everyone wants to live in Canada, and that's part of the problem. Housing and food wouldn't cost what it does if there was no demand.

Why did you make it about Canada, housing price is out of control everywhere because the GOV only makes money from property tax lol. \n\nI wouldn't live in Austin it fucking sucks, you remember their electrical lines FROZE OVER??? lmao they had no heat for 30 days +\n\nI wouldn't live anywhere in Florida because I'm mixed race, the south of the US except California is crazy racist. I'm from Kansas originally and I left when I was 18 because 18 years of racism is enough for me. I have lived in LA since 2010 and I have no problems affording a house working a regular 9-5, nor do I get accosted by the police daily. \n\n\n\nAs they say, Grass is always greener.

A room with 1 real muslim man and he's back to normal he wouldn't attack a woman ever again

Sometimes… it is better to LEAVE Canada once one gets the passport to avoid high living costs and crappy services (healthcare among others) and high taxes. It is sometimes a good idea to use the passport and experiences (make sure it is not from those survival jobs they lure to many immigrants) and use that elsewhere… to me, 3 years after uniting here, I knew I wouldn’t retire here nor buy a house here (not worth it)!!!

Stop whining, getting jealous and hating Indians because of their success & skin color. This is 2024 no 18th century. Come out of the Your colonial hangover because it wouldn’t work good for you. you want to get successful & want good life like them. Get good education, get job and do hard work. Stop drinking too much, stop using drugs. Learn how to live like good human being from Indians.

Socialism model just wouldn’t work in north america ?

truth to be told: white people are racist... if the immigrants were Irish, and invaded Brampton with Irish buildings and decoration, they wouldn't say anything, all the opposite, this video would be bragging about the Irish living there.

If I were there.. I wouldn't tolerate his behaviour this much.. where is mainstream media.. shame on you

isn't he Irish? If he were Irish then he wouldn't know his own history!! They are Muslims that Ireland helped when they were at war with England

Bit nasty, that guy. Wouldn't say racist but hateful, yeh. But he's right, hamas Islamic terror groups bomb Israel all the time. But he could have said this differently. Sad to see this happen.

Violence towards women is a problem in the UK and even more so against ethnic minorities, he wouldn't do this to a group of muslim men, alcohol plays a part - the racist in this video looked drunk. Does anyone know this guy so his employer can see who represents them while collecting bin bags and bins in London.

Maybe if the UK stopped bombing Islamic countries then they wouldn't have to be forced to migrate there would they?

Building manager in West end Vancouver here:\n2 bed 1 bath is going for 3700/month ? \nThis is disgusting and needs to end. I wouldn't even live here if I didn't get free rent for my job. The rich get richer

Notice there's not a man ,in the women's company, he wouldn't be saying anything if there was

I can understand after all within a generation.England wouldn't from being english to being so diveryeah that they lost their identity

Bet he wouldn’t have talked like this to even one Muslim male lol\n\nTough guy harasses women, yet apparently Islam is oppressive to women ?

If no one wanted to live in Canada it wouldn’t be packed to the gills and bringing in half a million more per year. Stop showing me this garbage, YouTube.

He wouldn’t talk to a Moozlim man like that. Ya mu’tasim

? real man! should have done it with me or if I had been there I definitely wouldn't have turned my other cheek to him.\nwhoever understands understands

I bet he wouldn't be that brave infront of men ....

He wouldn't do that if they were men

He wouldn’t have been able to get past his first sentence if I was there, he wants to harass women and he can’t even walk straight ?

If the people would really know, how the israelian treats the palestinian since 75 years- they wouldn't talk such a rubish

It is a good question though....\nWhy would any true Muslim want to live in a country completely opposite to their culture and theological viewpoint?\nIf I said I only loved hot weather,the hotter the better,it wouldn't make any sense if you heard I'd moved to Alaska would it?

He wouldn't dare if there was a male there.

If they were men they wouldn't be talking to them like that!

This why woman have a brother or a father with you do to ignorant people like this to protect you guys he we wouldn’t be doing that if there was a brother with you guys what a coward

He wouldn't do that with a muslim man walking with them
