I find it funny that you show citation but never show any sources. If some information are interesting, many other statistic you use sound simply wrong. It feel more like a commentary video than an informative video.

They just sound like singing an angry song?

It sounds like the healthcare system is fine as long as you stay out of the hospital.

mass immigration is one of the main issues so it sounds like its solving itself.

Sounds like South Africa, except we have hectic crime added to all this.....

Sounds like you are talking about America, everything you mentioned can also apply to us

Sounds exactly like Australia tho ?

Great video and content but what’s up with the staccato robotic style of talking? It sounds like a bot, not a human. Am I the only one?

Sounds like a dodge to me

This sounds like corporatism or some version of a mixed economy that 5/8 socialistic

Who is this guy he sounds like Laurence Olivier

Sounds like Australia V2 to some extent

The fact you think this is makes you kind of misleading if not at most The problem is entitlement is Canadians specially ones born after the 70s have an easy life compare to the rest of the worlds countries. Just sound like you all are babies and were born into upper class families lol ?

The weight has to be lifted by Hamas returning the hostages and stopping them from using their very own people as human shields and fulfilling their agenda to fill their pockets with billions He sounds like an intelligent man — does he not see the real solution here? This is a clever answer to make sure that the Palestinians don’t inconvenience other Arab nations isn’t it obvious that no one wants them? Where is the brotherly love?

Sounds like Australia, just with far worse weather.

What’s up with this word plight WHEN EVER PALESTINE IS MENTIONED WHATS HAPPENING TO THE IS HORRIBLE BUT INSTEAD THEY PLIGHT IT SOUNDS LIKE PITY NOT-RAGE AND WHATS HAPPENING IS ENRAGING

That sounds like the same thing in the UK which is why young graduates or those with masters are leaving the country.

Read between the lines.\nHe didn’t say what it sounded like…

Sounds like get Hamas out and that talk can happen

***National Post***\nMuslim leaders should've condemned Hamas instead of fomenting hate\nIf they had spoken out against terrorism, their advocacy of the Palestinian cause would carry much more weight. \n\nPart of the reason we are seeing division, hatred and unrest in the streets of Montreal, Toronto and other communities across Canada is due to the collective failure of Muslim leaders, in Canada and around the world, to condemn the despicable Oct. 7 terror attack by Hamas on Israeli civilians. \n\nIt was a horrific and cowardly attack by a terrorist group — not by all Palestinians, Arabs or the wider Muslim community. It should have been condemned and contained immediately. Muslims who pride themselves as followers of a peaceful religion should have empathized and consoled the grieving Jews. \n\nThere was a lot of time to do this. There was a lengthy delay between the attack and Israel’s ground offensive in Gaza. Instead of taking this time to condemn Hamas’s slaughter, Arab and Muslim politicians and government leaders promoted anti-Jewish hate to shore up their political support. This is nothing less than encouraging antisemitism. \n\nMuslim political and religious leaders, barring rare exceptions, chose to contextualize, equivocate and, in most cases, justify Hamas’s barbarity. What we have, as a result, is widespread hate bordering on violence in Canada — a country where communities have historically lived side-by-side in peace. \n\nThe situation got worse due to the statements made by community leaders like Amira Elghawaby, Canada’s special representative on combating Islamophobia, who did not hide her partisan and divisive outlook by clearly siding with the protesters on Canadian streets, characterizing them as “peaceful demonstrations,” even though we have seen people supporting Hamas, calling for genocide against Israeli Jews and harassing and intimidating Jewish-owned businesses. \n\nOn Twitter, Elghawaby approvingly cited a quote from a Toronto Star column reading, “The stories I have heard are both fantastical and true. Muslims (and others who silently sympathize with the loss of Palestinians lives) are being disciplined, maligned, isolated and targeted at work.” \n\nInstead of reaching across the aisle and consoling the Jewish community, she has instead chosen to focus her public comments on rising Islamophobia. \n\nSeriously? Remember the Muslim family who were killed in a hate-related attack in London, Ont., a couple years ago? All communities, including the Jewish community, across the political and religious spectrum unambiguously condemned that hate crime. And it brought a sense of relief and security to Muslims in Ontario. \n\nRemember how, after more that 50 people were gunned down while worshipping at mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand, in 2019, political and religious leaders from all faiths stood behind Muslims and consoled them? \n\nAlso, after the Quebec mosque attack, almost all communities in Canada chose to stand with Muslims. There were images of people in Alberta who formed a human chain to protect Muslims. Similar scenes were witnessed elsewhere in the country. Jewish community leaders spoke out, loud and clear, in support of Muslims and against hate and bigotry. \n\nBut that is not what Elghawaby did. Instead, she makes it sounds as though it is Muslims who are the victims, while failing to mention the barbarity unleashed on Oct. 7. This is not leadership. This is not her mandate. Her job is to promote tolerance as enshrined in Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. \n\nNow imagine a scenario in which Muslims did what they ought to have done in the first place: condemned the Hamas attack, sided with the Jewish victims and dissociated themselves from terrorism. Their voices for the Palestinian cause would have carried much more weight. \n\nWhat we are seeing instead is a rising tide of anti-Jewish hate on our streets, promoted and peddled by Muslim leaders themselves, either by gaslighting the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, or wallpapering it with the political colours of the Palestinian cause. \n\nLet us all come together, not to let hate be poured onto the streets of Canada, but to stand united for a secure and prosperous country. \n\nNational Post \n\nRaheel Raza and Mohammad Rizwan are members of the Council of Muslims Against Antisemitism.

Canada sounds like California without the great weather. Crazy expensive, bad governance, woke politics and bad crime.

Monopolies, housing problems, no competition.......Sounds like Communism ?

The comments sound like a beer commercial. I am Canadian but....

Increase in crime and homelessness? Sounds like LA

This sounds just like my country, Australia. I'm lucky that I bought a small unit a decade ago, even if it isn't great. Our house has more than doubled in price - but I would be happy for it to depreciate if all properties did fairly equally. Housing is a right, not an investment.

Sounds a lot like Australia

She sounds like an intentional criminal.

Should investigate foreign buyers who buy Canadian houses and ppl aren't living in them\n\nOr foreign buyers who buy huge quantities of Canadian land and don't develop it.\n\nHow canada got to where it's at is just baffling, how the price of living in buildings that are paid for but regulated ppl to pay well over what they earn and struggle sound like Captilistism.

Basically you sound a lazy person, who doesn't like doing household chores, and they can never settle in America. . Anyways 2.5 months is nothing to judge a country , I have lived 22 yrs in America, 10 in ?? and 12 yrs in Canada, and no comparison with India, in terms of corruption, general social behavior discipline and law abiding society., which Canada is. Ur either lying or super lucky saying that you got a teaching job just after landing, getting job is the toughest thing for new immigrants, even for iit graduates which you are hiding from others in this video

I don't think Canadian Government have many options for this matter. People now can see one or two side effects of a sequence of immigration policies, but overlook the other side of the same coin that newcomers fill a gap in the labor market and tax revenue. After pandemic, I suppose many restaurant and hotel owners would be happy to see more legal migrants coming to Canada. For public schools, they may also be happy to see that. And I don't see a good reason for a country of immigrants to start a backlash against migrants. Believe it or not, there're still a large group of people and businesses benefitting from those policies. The second largest country around the globe only has a population of about 40 million, even less than that of UK. It sounds like a joke when people just complain about housing crisis due to higher immigration but not complain about lots of vacant and unutilized spaces.

2nd largest landmass on planet earth and we're fighting over real estate???? Sounds like market manipulation to me....Pretty sure that's illegal according to our laws in Canada.... will the three largest real estate companies even face scrutiny for this? No. The answer is no.

,.....we need to take care of Canadians first, you know the ones that built this nation, created a country of fairness and compassion? and here's a point that will enrage the uneducated woke: limit immigration from Islamic nations.....look at Poland, they are protectting their Polish identity and way of life, why do Canadians not see the same issue??? unless you want your country to look like France or Great Britain. This country has changed for the worse. And unfortunately Islam is not a religion/ideology that can be integrated into western liberal democracies easily. Read the Koran folks its not like Christianity....its not about equality and fairness unless you are muslim perhaps... their Prophet was a warlord killing thousands and enslaving thousands, he married a 9 year old and consummated that marriage when she was 12 and he was 54. If you believe in God , pretty sure he didn't send Jesus to earth to preach peace and forgiveness and then , an all knowing God Changes his mind and brings us Mohammed, who kills and enslaves?? And addressing current issues, Canadian passport holders who choose to live in Gaza, which has no rights for women, LGBTQ, and especially jews and whose leaders drafted a charter calling for death of ALL jews, sounds more like NAZI Germany, well they do not belong in Canada. There are plenty of surrounding muslim nations they can go to.

you look and sound like Constance Wu from fresh off the boat?

Sounds like you are making fun of punjabis specially sikhs.

I didn't know about the thing of the sik'hi knife that might be carried around public places in many countries. I thought the cop arrests the guy for wearing a turban ?\nThen I thought the thing is only mistakenly looked like a knife for some people from a specific perspective at a quick sight.\nBut if there's a real sharp weapon, then law makers and law enforcement have nothing to apologize for by limiting the use of this object and they don't have to explain the law, that should be limiting all citizens equally for their safety. They might know or not know the story of the symbol. Knife carried from point to point for making salads must be in a closed package, that's how I know the rule here in Israel. \nI wish more people would carry non lethal weapons, and that I could protect myself and still letting the judge decide later if my attacker should be punished physically, when anyway I'm ending this scene safe and...how you say? Sound? Like of music??\nI wish all humans can find the way to respect the peace, each others and the superior - in a way that can be agreed as good for all

Hilarious ! English sounding names which are GERMAN like : Ahn, Neldnerm Knoess. And Douvas is not English, Guzman is very common Spanish. Pereira is Portuguese. And McNaughlin is Scottish not English. Etc. And banning the hijab is not the really law in Quebec, is any religious signs whathever the religion (I personnaly believe its useless and it would much better to limit mass immigration simply).

good\nthe more immigrants we invite the higher the populations and the higher the costs of rent go and the worse the housing crisis gets\nmost people here are living in tents, vans, shelters, or crammed in rental units run by slum lords, or living in a home they can't afford and will likely end up losing to the bank\n\nour government doesn't seem to be interested in helping it's people just helping greedy corrupt systems\n\nwe are losing our abilities to have free speech too or even share news clips anymore either, they fear people coming together as a community again to stand up for ourselves\n\nfood prices are unaffordable too and it's insanely cold\ndoes this sound like a place anyone would want to live\nour government sucks

Hey… this sounds like Area 52-

They sound like a bong couple, in which case I understand the officer's attitude ?

Typical Indians. Privilege is poisonous. She sounds like Indian, why does she need visa for.

So the news is blaming Canadians for immigrants leaving.. sounds like more liberal propaganda, new immigrants don’t want labour jobs , how is that our fault? Hell our own children don’t want them either ?‍♂️

heres an idea. why not train the exploding homeless populations to build houses instead of bringing in immigrants to do it? sounds like a win win

Yikes! Born and raised in Syracuse, NY and after college spent 16 years in Los Angeles until finally moving back to NY last year. Any comparison between Toronto and L.A. I simply won't stand for.....and I really mean that because you have less gun violence, seems like more cultures get along there, plus it looks cleaner. I'd consider moving to Buffalo just to be within an hour of Toronto to take weekend trips. After seeing how the rents up there are close to SF or NYC, def can't move there anymore. There's an appeal Canada has in terms of safety and perhaps better quality of life than the U.S. but frustrating to see housing crisis is even worse up there! I'd hate to see Toronto start to remind people of anything remotely close to California. Def sounds like you need a new PM asap. After seeing your Montreal video, think I'll take a short trip up there instead.

sounds like its working keeping wages high

Immigration backlog sounds like US backlog with same confusion, delays, new paperwork, new appointments, appeals, sometimes 5, 10 years to process.

Sounds like the US…

U don't sound like. a working mother

What's with this guy's weird accent. Sounds like an American pretending to be canadian and doing one of those canadian accents Americans think we sound like.
