Thank you so much for this. In spite of being born in Ontario, I learned a lot about Canada! My entire family was born and grew up either in Toronto or in the then-small towns closeby. My father moved us to upstate NY in 1957 when I was 9 years old, me kicking and screaming all the way. I was devastated to be leaving Canada, and now at 77, I've decided this life-long yearning to return to my birthplace has to become reality. I've started the process, hoping I may gain some points because I'm a former citizen :) . I still have lots of family in several provinces; people I haven't seen since we were children, and some of us are great-grandparents now. I feel strongly that I need to leave this world in the place where I began :) Thanks again for the great video!

It's crystal clear that immigration is the number one concern in Britain, Canada, America, and all over the west.\nSecuring the borders is the one thing that the people want.\nAnd it's also the one thing the ruling class will NEVER allow. Just look at what they have done to this world. We ain't gonna vote our way out of this, hope you all realize that.

I am seriously considering leaving canada. Its way too expensive and far too cold. Its just not very good here. Considering Eastern Europe, USA and Southeast Asia.

The Ford EV one of my friends drive was made in Mexico. Another friend told me that her refrigerator and tv was made in Mexico as well. So, I think the general population is (including myself) a little ignorant about where the household items we use everyday come from. It's not just avocados, tomatoes, beer, and tequila and immigrants arriving from the southern border. As for Canada, we import most of our gas from there, as well as, precious metals. I suppose that if we are struggling financially now, what is coming our way might be a little worse for some people. I have friends that say that prices going up does not affect their budget at all. It does affect mine though. That's where we are.

Screw Mexico and Canada. I don't give one damn what the president of Mexico says and Justin Trudeau is even less important than that. Reports like this are why CNN's ratings are in the tank. Anyone that believes ANYTHING on the 'Communist News Network' is an idiot. Like MSNBC and all mainstream fake news, CNN will go the way of the dodo.

Indians wanted to destroy Canada ?? like the way they destroyed UK

Canada by the way has floated the idea of a 2 to 1 ratio for duties.

Leader of the Conservative Party of Canada, Pierre Poilievre, wants Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to send back 4,900,000 newcomers whose visas expire in the next 13 months. \nMinister of Immigration Marc Miller wants to fast-track asylum refusals \n(to prevent the asylum system abuse). \n \nCanadians are VERY happy with IRCC's changes in 2024 (reductions & multifaceted investigations & deportations etc.). Canadians want: \n \n⦁\tNo more tribal hatreds & violence in CANADA, stemming from tribal hatreds occurring in foreign countries (the hater's ancestral home). \n⦁\tNo more foreign interference in Canadian elections. \n⦁\tNo more dealing with the repercussions caused by ghost consulting in foreign countries, after they targeted their own people (before they came to Canada). \n⦁\tNo more fraudulent acceptance letters created by foreign consultants and given to their own people (before they came to Canada). \n⦁\tNo more PRIVATE 'diploma mills' in British Columbia and Ontario. \n⦁\tNo more mass social media videos posted by foreigners advertising Canadian PR & visas & permits & schools & jobs etc., like they're selling shirts. Never posted in English (with no input from Canadians including Canadian colleges/universities). \n⦁\tNo more IELTS spouses in Canada. Anchor babies. \n⦁\tNo more Canadian housing being scooped up en-mass as investment vehicles by, and for, foreign nationals. With 'slumlords' charging way too much for rent. \n⦁\tNo more foreign protestors on Canadian streets demanding permanent residency, when they don't qualify for PR (which was never guaranteed). \n⦁\tNo more foreigners asking for Canadian asylum THAT THEY DON'T QUALIFY FOR. \n⦁\tNo more visas being used to illegally cross into the USA from Canada. \n⦁\tNo more social hierarchies popping up at Canadian workplaces that divides people into groups based on their ancestry, perceived purity or worthiness, and birth. \n⦁\tNo more tech support scams, phishing, and identity theft scams linked to foreign countries. \n⦁\tNo more major auto theft cartels shipping stolen car parts to lower Asia and northern Africa. And no more foreigners speed racing on Canadian streets causing injury and sometimes death. \n⦁\tNo more Canadian charity services being recklessly advertised on social media by foreign nationals (and not in English or French). \n⦁\tNo more dealing with those who won't blend to a country’s way of living, including rules and conduct norms. Unfortunately now, Canadians are dealing with far too many people from a very low-trust society. \n \nSupport the country you live in … or live in the country you support.

They trying to blame mexico for the migrant when biden and the new york lady were calling the migrants to come and the they did they panic ,and they blame on mexico why not blame on Biden en kammala and the lady from new york . Instead treating he should fi d they way to fix the problem with canada and mexico borders.

Talking head opinions...\n\nFacts:\nMexico was the United States’ top goods trading partner in 2023 with total two-way goods trade at $807 billion, surpassing China. In comparison, U.S. goods trade with Canada totaled $782 billion, while trade with China totaled $576 billion. U.S. exports supported an estimated 1.1 million jobs in 2019.\n\nMexico vehicle manufacturing impact: approximately 3.7 million vehicles with 79% of production exported to the United States and 109,000 car manufacturing employees in Mexico. Automotive and auto parts manufacturing in Mexico is clustered around Saltillo, Coahuila; the state of Puebla, the state Guanajuato; the state of Aguascalientes; and the state of San Luis Potosí.\n\nOver 5 years the exports of Mexico to United States have increased at an annualized rate of 5.49%, from $323B in 2017 to $421B in 2022. Mostly cars, delivery trucks and computers.\n\nOver 5 years the exports of United States to Mexico have increased at an annualized rate of 5.31%, from $227B in 2017 to $294B in 2022. Mostly refined petro, gas, and car parts.\n\nThere is room to negotiate.

Don't come to the US - we can't get jobs either. I have 7 years' tech experience and I can't get a job anymore. There must be some sort of solution for Canada, some way to disentangle the monopolies.

Could you please tell Donald Trump to stop his crap because we have a problem in Canada with drugs , guns, and illegals entering Canada, not the other way around . The USA is the problem for Canada ?? not the other way around .

Far more drugs, weapons and people are smuggled into Canada from the US than the other way around. I hope Canada stops being such a reliable neighbor. They send help after every hurricane, blizzard or forest fire at no cost to the US. I hope Canada stops helping.

Make Canada a British Colony again! The Canadians have clearly lost their way.

Wait for me Canada, I'm on my way ? From Brazil ??

Canada has made it way too easy to claim asylum status

Welcome to Canada...We are barely able to survive. We'll all now go to bed with half stomach filled. It's an excellent way to lose weight - a blessing in disguise!!

Funny how u & the white people u talk to can’t talk honestly about their self distructive behavior choices. The people u spoke to were all drug addicts & from the looks of them they have been in the drug culture for a good 20 yrs, they made those choices way before those Indians went to Brampton. The only one that had a home was the French lady, also a foreigner, but she looks white enough, u didn’t have a problem with her. Here is the real problem your ignorance is showing first of all Indians were a British colony so they all speak English. Their culture values education so many of them already come to Canada with a high level of education and they are getting degrees in order to work in Canada. They believe in working & don’t expect the government to provide them with housing and all their needs like the white people sitting around in tents. Another difference is that family and kinship is valued so Indians work together to build themselves up. They may have to live in crowded housing but they r working to save to be able to buy their own homes. The problem with White people is they don’t have family unity, they view having children and inconvenience. They don’t realize that those children will become their safety net as they get older. Family helps each other out, those Indians would do anything to keep a family member from living in the streets. This would put their family in shame in their community. Canadians have something to learn from the Indians. By the way their religion disapproves of alcohol & drugs so they don’t have that problem. The working Indians r paying more taxes and supporting those drug addicts, if the Indians were not there Brampton would be a dying city. Greeting from the US.

I'm glad that some of the Rude Indians are going to be Sent back to their country. Canada was a Country that immigrants and Refugees came to get a start for a better life.Not this culture. All of the millions that came over here illegally need to leave.My parents are immigrants so I was happy that some people of my background be living and learning a New way of life.But I'm not glad anymore.

PR status is their real goal. Colleges are a door way to enter Canada. They all know this very well.

Not enough people are being sent back. Also, I don’t feel sorry for them because when my parents came to Canada, they went through the proper channels and filled out all the paperwork they needed to. As soon as they got here they found jobs which was in abundance at the time. So trying fake anything just to come here is unfair to the others who do it the legal way.

Canada has 5 million of these to deal with . They are known as “international students” (the same way they call pedophiles MAPS)

Only 7000 to be deported? Almost 3 million illegal Indians flocked into Canada just in 2023 way to go Liberals! The only solution to the Indian invasion to Canada is to make sure neither the Liberals nor their puppet the NDP get any seats in the coming elections. The Liberals are just ploughing the Canadians to be re-elected then bring another 10 million illegal Indians in 2025 not to mention the 10 Million illegal Indians Trump is going to dump to Canada. In 2025 there will be 35 million Indians in Canada both legal and illegal versus 20 million non- Indian Canadians wow this is Indian-zation not immigration. I guess all churches and other worship places will be demolished in favor of temples and no more beef will be served nor PEPESI or Coke to be consumed only cow pee is available if you are thirsty more over there will be a huge shortage of diapers for new born babies as they will all be covering some Indian heads.

Only 7000. Canada needs to adopt Trump’s way of thinking. Canada has too many people paying the price for the overpopulation problem.

stop having so many children leave canada tired of them just way toooo many of them

First of all Canada and America are European colonization countries. Because of their sense of superiority they managed to genocide and wipe out the culture of the indigenous natives of that place and replace it with their own. To say Indians from India is taking away their culture is so strange....the recent media attacks about Indians experiencing racism in Canada and all Indians being unlawful in Canada has been orchestrated by Tredue and the racist Canadian government against India and Indians because of geopolitics. The west has always used media to make the whole world look down on India and many places that fought back against white supremacy. Everyone needs to correct themselves, not only Indians as the way the flaws of Indians has been exaggerated beyond words to condone their prejudice and spoilt rotten entitled behaviour.

Why would anyone in the right state of mind would want to go to Canada . US is way better option.

Pretty happy with this news. Local people should learn the hard way that immigrants are not the reason for their issues. It's their government. \nContinue hating the immigrants and no one will choose Canada. Don't worry; immigrants leaving are more prosperous than you think and have more options. They aren't making 16$ an hour like the majority of the people in the comments section.\n\nInterestingly, some third or fourth-generation immigrants think it's only their country. People who came in the last decade don't deserve to be in Canada. The country only belongs to native people. Everyone else is an immigrant. There are a bunch of hypocrites and racists in the comment sections.

I never wanted to come and now after coming? Just want to escape, this country not for me . No jobs , negative environment against immigrants and now this report they are worried now people are leaving. \nOne way Justin is closing the taps but somewhere else immigrants are leaking away from Canada ??

I love Americans. Although that's a general statement and just like Canada, there are jerks there just like here, for the most part I get along great with them. There are pros and cons to living in Canada and the U.S., For the most part, I believe Canada is the superior country. We have a superior healthcare system, superior banking system, superior snacks, and superior safety. However, Trudeau is killing that. He's destroyed our country to the point that one more term, and it may well be expedient to move to the USA. He's destroying our economy, our values, our culture. We have the resources to top the USA in every way, but we've never had leadership to make that happen. The U.S. has a superior economy, retail, and military. Although some may argue that the USA has superior freedoms, I'm not sure I agree with that. I know I don't feel freer when I travel there. I will definitely travel to the U.S. again. I have lots of friends there who I love and would love to see. However, it will take more Trudeau for me to want to move there. Since it looks like he's on the way out, I better just stay put at least for now.

Trudew just step down get out of the way of Canadas common sense future

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

JT destroyed Canada is so many ways and how can Canadians vote for him is unbelievable

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.

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!

‼️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.

I could Understand a Precious thing like you getting so tired of whatever I always say Canada is a Clean & Civil Country with very small Exceptions. Even today Canada is a little more Cleaner then the US but you're not wrong 2020 screwed the World in a bad way, hopefully they could Restore faith, proceeding to Clean up the Environment!

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

I have no issue with an immigrant keeping their traditions. However, some immigrants seem to feel that once here that Canada owes them every single thing that they want. Immigrants forget that they chose to come here. Instead it feels like now instead of becoming part of our society, many come here and want to change our way of life to suit them. It's not right.

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

They are coming student visas and most don't go to college and visit visa after they jump to USA for green card and work permits so what the point we coming legal way to usa and Canada

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.

its strange to believe that native Canadians took 30 years to visualise and realise that Student visa and work permit visa is just an silly excuse to enter Canada for not going back ever.\nJust like many parts of Britain are lost to Islamists immigrants\nSame way Canada is now ruled by Khalistanis

Canada stopped being attractive to Western and Central Europeans about 15 years ago. Since about 2008, we've only been getting people from the developing world - China, India, Pakistan, the Philippines, Vietnam, Indonesia, African states, Arab states, etc. And so today, Canada looks the way it does. And now it's not attractive to ANYONE. Even the Chinese and Indians have realized it's not worth coming over. A whole country destroyed over two generations. Well done, Harper and Trudeau. Well done! Papa Schwab is very proud.

The United States government must assist the Canadian government in blocking unlawful border crossings between the two countries and deport migrants from the United States.\n\nIt works both ways, both Canada and the United States must protect each others borders from unwanted migrants for the sake of national security.

Good luck Canada all of Venezuela heading that way now that trump is in office

Dont let anyone in thats abusing canada . they should pay their own way period .

Indians panicking. They are being shunned In so many countries for their bad ways. Canada can find more affluent and less troublesome students from elsewhere. Students visas are NOT for staying permanently or for working indefinitely.

Half of Punjab migrating to Canada is not good for country's well being!!! Studies r mostly scams! U ppl go there for nice car and nice house and freebies!!! Then ruin authentic Canada culture with blemished unruly punjabi culture and ppl originally from Canada can't voice protests because of woke trolls! Just admit study in canada is a front to immigrate there! Those crappy courses don't warrant travelling all the way to that country leaving home!!!!! Pathetic
