I feel like a slave in a country I’ve lived in for 44 years. So disappointed. 2025 can’t come soon enough.

I am all for immigrations, but why do Indians and Chinese make up for like 85% of immigration (according to what I saw). \nAs a Japanese international, I feel Canada needs to mix it up.

Canada feels like its becoming like Great Britain, an absoulte nightmare to live and have any hope! I thought about coming to beautiful Canada as had fond memories back in 2004 but it seems like most things after 2008 crash most countries are becoming a nightmare to have a decent lifestyle! Im looking at Australia for a country that offers a decent wage and lifestyle! Only problem is on the other side of the Planet from my connections! Don't move to the UK as its becoming an absoulte nightmare to live and have a basic lifestyle especially in London!

I was born and raised in Ontario, and I HATE this country’s government, the ungodly taxes, and the shitty healthcare, Canada had been trashed and has no future. Feels like I’m living in a third world country. I am leaving and I’m never coming back to this godless dystopian wasteland.

When I walk into the local Walmart I feel more like a stranger abroad because I don't understand what people are saying because they are all immigrants and refugees.\nI'm no racist, but having the government impose this on the population is such a disrespect. The health management situation was never fixed and we pour in multitudes of refugees to clog it even better. A few years ago clinics changed their way of getting an appointment because waiting rooms were overfilled with refugees! It's now so hard to get an appointment it stresses me out to no end! The silver lining in this is that I have not much more time to live. You can have the country. It's not mine. Things weren't like this in my youth!

Come to Surrey, BC and you will feel so alienated. 90% here are of South Indian decent. You feel like you're not in Canada but in India. You go to shops and they're all there.

This is why people hate politics, hate politicians, distrust the government, feel hopeless to ever own a home like one they probably grew up in that was 10 to 20x less expensive than prices they are facing. The home I am sitting in cost $120K when it was built in 1977, now it recently sold for $1.2 million, a 10X increase in price, up from $400k just 10 years ago. So now to own a normal middle class home in suburbia near Seattle, you have to make $250,000 per year in income, so the American Dream and American Middle Class are vanishing ideas.

Gimme a break, man!!! Never heard so much complaining in all my life. Canada needs immigrants because people born here are not having kids or don't want kids. I thought only liberals were the bleeding hearts. Seems like there are a lot of conservatives that also feel sorry for themselves.

Could you do the same type of video but in the Bathurst and Eglinton neighborhood and tell us if you feel like you're in Canada there.

Every coffee shop, gas station, doctors office, dental clinic, banks, all you see is Indians! that's it. Its worst in Calgary! I honestly dont feel that I am living in Canada, I feel like I am living in India. and they keep pouring more and more and more of them; 70% of immigration Quota is Indians, there are 1.4 billion of them so its not like its gonna stop at any time soon!

Bias right off, that is not reporting - its an opinion. White Colonists feel like they are being Colonized by Brown Indians, who were colonized in India by White Colonist. Now White Colonist MUST know how we red Indians still feel.

The hate that some people have. They believe that putting people down builds them up. I do feel sorry for you. If putting people down is your motive, then I am not with your. Fid something positive. You don't like one side over the other. Build up the other. Be a man. There have been too many sheep that just hate. Learning can be a good tool to get over hate. Understanding is another.

You keep describing it as an “infamous” ethnic enclave, kind of like when Oppenheimer says “Lewis Strauss was once a lowly shoe salesman”. It’s just an ethnic enclave. It’s not really that different from Scarborough, it just hasn’t been amalgamated with Toronto yet.\n\nI’m not pro-immigration, I think we need to sort out this cost-of-living issue by any means necessary (including limiting immigration if need-be). But you could walk through my city and interview people who would tell you that its dangerous, drug-ridden, gone downhill etc. and we’re still fairly white. I feel like a lot of what you’re seeing has as much to do with urbanization as immigration.

I’m an Aussie. I went to Canada on a 2 year working holiday visa. I arrived in Vancouver. Didn’t feel like I was in Canada. Felt like I was living in Hong Kong. Moved to Calgary. Felt like I was living in Delhi.Within 1 year moved back to Melbourne. Or should I say “Mumbai”.\nNo matter where you go in the western world, curry munchers and chopsticks everywhere.

What a great answer! I love Saudis. I feel like I partied with this guy in Denver once

I feel like I'm living in india. I hate it.

This is so true. I gave up on ever owning property in Canada and ended up buying in France. I miss my home country, but I didn’t feel like I had a choice.

I wish I could up and leave sometimes but I love Canada cause I was born here. I miss the old Canada feeling. Now it’s really depressing. It feels like I’m sinkijg

I feel you, it feels like the government dont want you to win even businesses and rental investments. I am moving my businesses and sponsoring myself to texas in the next 5 years. It seems like 20% of my Canadian friends are moving to he U.S

I don't understand why people feel that delivery drivers should carry change...like get the exact change if you're paying cash. They're outsourced employees, they dont carry a cash float. What's so difficult about paying with a card on the app? The guy literally just wanted to pick a stupid fight like a 2 year old.

Exactly how most feel but can't say it. Other countries that aren't Muslim don't need to cater to them. They can't be activists in their precious Muslim countries, only in civilized countries they get to act stupid. They like freedom

I feel like the Canadian government is protecting the rich, the poor just getting poorer

Obviously only knows what he cares to know, I admire him. He speaks with passion and is open about how they feel. He ain't lying that they don't like you and they don't want you there. He is clearly oblivious to the fact that his own leaders have done this to them on purpose, so the people stop looking at the tyrannical bs they pull, like sending weaponry and $$$ to isreal ( for decades, for decades, just like america has ). His country helped to set up the fake state of israel.

Will he just tired what happened too his country that all equal rights free too speak in his country i say like protesters doing the same enough videos too prove that it time just see how it feels remember who started it just deal with it especially it was wanted come on now

He should feel relatable to the Palestinians because Ukrainians and Palestinians are both being oppressed? Sad that most Ukrainians are like this

WELL who can Blame that His had enough Fed like all of Us watching our Streets division division in London every weekend shouting yelling cursing . I don’t blame him giving them of how we feel and fed up with themselves being victims when they know we know too much brainwashed die as martyr . And pinned up on people’s and West community!!!

I feel like our muslim brethren would have a better life in thier muslim homelands with Sharia Law. Please God bring the muslims together and send them where they can flourish in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, South Sudan, Syria, and Yemen.

Too many Indians here. Doesn't even feel like Canada.

i am in a college in a small town in Ontario and in my class we have 54 students and only 4 not including me are local students and the rest basically 90% are indian and the rest nepali from Philippines and some African countries and i moved here from usa with my family in 2015 and even up till 2019 canada was livable and now its not its impossible my plan is when i graduate i will move back to usa or some cheap country like Mexico Thailand and work remotely i am not against immigration but the path this country is going in accepting crazy amounts of student visa is wild also i feel some what bad for some of these students they get sold on a lie being canada is affordable they can find job easily and live comfortable but at the same time these students should do their research and its nothing but a infinite money maker for collages but at the same time they are kind of forced to do so to make money cause here in Ontario ford cut budgets for collages

Of course, Brampton feels and looks like a Canadian city. Statistics don't mean anything. Just walk by any street in Brampton and it is as Canadian as Calgary or Ottawa.

OMG that guy is absolutely disgusting you don't treat people like that I feel sorry for the delivery man. I would never deliver there ever again

Im feeling bad that the guy recording sounds like kermit ?

Feel sorry for the delivery driver \nYou are very lucky \nI am delivery guy aswell \nIf someone treat me like that \nNo metter what my finger prints will be on his face ?

People forget we have red blood under our skins .. doesnt matter what i am ŵhere i am came from . Being polite and shy isnt weakness for us is just how we are raised . We know how one can feel when one is being going thru same situation and we dont like it for us so why would i want it for other people .. always cooperate and be pation and reasonable. Be the one who initiated the good conversation and the good deed .❤

omg i felt that . i feel like a stranger in my own country and I am a born Canadian!

Indians are also fed up with Indians also same in Cambridge and Kitchener… sometimes i feel like I’m in India.

I feel sorry for my Punjabi brothers, they have a strong sense of community, some of them are bringing bad name to their own society, but this is next level , they leave their country, come, work hard, buy up overpriced real estate from white people, Ukrainians and previous waves of immigrants paying their over priced rents for housing, commercial, serving these people in government, only to make them stupid to make these comments only because they feel they don't have any franchise in their own country. I'm really sorry for all the people who don't look like white people and white people and previous waves of immigrants. Our lives are very very difficult right now.

I genuinely feel bad for this Delivery guy, so much so watching this simply made my blood boil. He did not deserve to be spoken to like that, too many assholes on this planet these days I'm afraid.

Brampton feels like a shanty town nasty dirty cheap uneducated stink city

well I have to say that this video is yet another white man complaining how the country is when they sat and watched it happen over the past 20 years. BOO Hoo you're the minority now sucks don't it. Not being able to get hired white people homeless living in the streets and entire areas are being taken over by immigrants. WHAT TO HELL HAVE WHITE PEOPLE BEEN DOING FOR 20 YEARS!! No mass protests, no private members bills, no community organizations to stem the tide of immigration. It seems what you're saying is if it isn't white, it isn't right and now finally enough white people are feeling what it was like for every brown or black person and other non white groups (still shit on) for the past 50 plus years. Remember there isn't an issue until it affects white people is the way it's been in Canada my whole life. I lived and grew up in small town Canada during the 80s and 90s and I can tell you white people weren't very friendly, and they certainly didn't hire people that were nonwhite for any of the good paying jobs, the data exists if you care to look. I think instead of promoting division and board line hate why don't work with these communities and find out why they only hire their own. Maybe pay back for the decades of being shit on by white Canada would probably be a reason you may hear; I know I do and have because I've asked owners of the companies. They are fed up with driving cabs and doing shit work so instead of crying about it they created communities or took over communities and made it so they don't have to reply on or hope that whites will help.... THEY HELPED THEMSELVES. and if you as a white person sat around and watched and let it happen since this didn't happen overnight well you are right where you belong, something to consider. Drop the race baiting and work and open communication with people and work toward a common goal. Maybe had that happened 20 or 30 years ago, Canada may not look like it does today. \nRemember immigration was initially intended to bring in workers for a set amount of time and then they were sent back. Canada wasn't producing enough people to replace or increase the needed work force required for the country's growth. \n\nYoung man if you ever want to talk and help figure out how white and brown people can come together and fix a racist system that goes both ways, I have just a few ideas that might actually make Canada not only how it used to be for whites but a Canada that benefits everyone. So please stop with the race baiting and promote and find ways that everyone can exist....unless you are racist and don't want anything but to have white people be the majority again, and if that is the case then your part of the problem and not the solution. \n\nBTW I am native French and Spanish and English now that is a war going on inside me lmao.

Try that here. Central US. \nTop 20 Population City. \nTop 20 income town. \n30 minutes out Of the City. \nI have not seen a native in 3 years. \nI don't speak the dialect. \n Feels like I have been transplanted to a foreign land.

white people feel like this, imagine how first nations felt when their way of life was decimated by white peoples

I meeeaaan imagine how the indigenous people have been feeling, like strangers in their own land

Yeah go to Markham Ontario it's all Chinese now It really bothers me how these people overtake communities and make you feel like a foreigner in your own country.

Feels like 150 years ago when the Caucasian took over the aboriginal Indians time

Winnipeg is the same! Feeling like this is India. Enough of this bullshit immigration!

Must be punished how shit guy it was really feel bad is really western people behave other people's like this really if you have money that's don't gave you the right to harrassing people's so disgusting

Must be punished how shit guy it was really feel bad is really western people behave other people's like this really

Poor man .. I feel for him?? How can someone speak like this to anyone ?

Don't forget to visit Markham. You will feel like you are in China or Sri Lanka. Thank those who voted Turdo for two terms in succession.
