Very good decision by Canada government ????

It’s been truly enriching to learn about your thoughts on Canada, your experiences, and the journey of your life—from childhood, youth, and up to the present day. You’re one of those inspiring people who generously share their experiences with others, and I’m grateful that you’re doing so. We’re all learning from one another through this exchange.\n\nPersonally, I love to travel and prefer learning through experience over reading books. Observing the world is my way of gaining knowledge. Your videos, journeys, and travel experiences have taught me so much. I extend my warmest wishes to you—life has no fixed destination; the journey itself is the most beautiful part, and it should always continue. With heartfelt good wishes, salaam!

STEM is already out of 2025-27 plan. There will be no tech draw. Though, its only general draws , nevertheless general draws are no consistent , check at canada.ca . The 2025 priority categories include: health care occupations, trade occupations, and French-language proficiency. Categories are established each year, informed by labour market information and projections as well as input received from partners, including provinces and territories, and stakeholders across the country. IT is already a saturated market in canada. Someone needs good experience both in foreign and Canadian market.

So here is how things will move on going from here, and this goes for people reading the comments. And full disclaimer I live in Victoria, BC so I can share my POV from the Canadian side:\n\nThere's toomuch of low skilled cheap labour coming in from Punjab and other countries like Nigeria, Philippines, etc. Its gotten sooo bad now that even Indians living in Canada are feeling like this is not what we came for.\n\nI can't even start with how bad the immigration has gotten, people can barely and I mean barely speak English and they are working for all possible low skilled jobs. Tim Hortons, Uber delivery, Uber Cabs, Petrol pumps I mean what is going on.\n\nRight now its getting to Canadians, and you need to understand that Canadians need these low skilled jobs for themselves too but employers are finding extremely cheap labour from other places to replace Canadians.\n\nSo if you ask me this move is good, it will surely hurt the skilled labour class too but its needed. Imagine have a million immigrants coming in with a country that has a population of 40 million.\n\nThe infrastructure comes to a stand still, housing is ruined, food inflation begins. \n\nHonestly thanks to Diploma mills, Asylum seekers and gangs from Punjab, its honestly gotten bad from the Indian perspective. Now add to this others coming in from Africa and South East Asia and you can see this country get worse honestly.\n\nThis isn't hate against anyone, its just facts.

I also came to Canada in 2006 as an immigrant with my 2 bags and started my new life with empty handed which almost all Indians had started on their time. Yes it’s very hard to adopt other cultures 100% for first generation. But have you think how this new immigrants have their own house and good jobs or business. Why their kids achieved higher education without any loan because their parents worked 7 days without looking around so called culture. They believe in work hard and focus on their family and kids and in extra time visit temple or Gurudwara just to keep live their believes. Do you know how many places where you find 3 times free hot food for everyone in Brampton at Gurudwara and Temple without looking at his originality. \nDon’t think the immigrants are coming here are poor in their country or helpless like refugees. Most of are millionaires in India but in Indian culture the stupid thoughts is to earn for next 7 generations so because of that greediness they work here 7 days and that’s why they are not homeless. As they have some values of their Indian culture they have not drug addictions.\nNot 100% Indian are good and loyal or honest. There are few which you can find in any culture or religion.\nSo in bottom line immigrants are here because of govt policies and invitations. They are not came as refugees. You can’t forced anyone where they have to stay and in how many percentage. Many people don’t live in GTA or ran away from GTA because they can’t afford house and can’t stand in competitive market. Government should skilled own citizen or make more powerful before invite highly skilled immigrants from other countries otherwise new immigrants will take jobs from original and that will be continued with us too.

This protest is a joke! They know what they signed up for before coming to Canada. So,  they should work within the rules and find a way to legally settle (if they can) or leave. \n\n\nHowever, Canadians deserve to know more about this mess which is an outcome of aggressive marketing by Private colleges and the government's greed to get quick cash into the Canadian economy. Here are some clarifications to note:\n\n\n1. In the last six years, 1.5 million international students brought a minimum of $67,500,000,000 direct cash into the Canadian economy. (Assuming a min $40-45000 per student for 2 year diploma, between to $100,000 - 150,000 for undergrad, and around $50,000 for Masters degrees). Usually, international students have to pay most of this money before applying for the study visa. \n\n\n2. These colleges employ Canadians for their day to day operations. From cleaning, maintainance, administration to teaching, each college operates with approx 20-30million budget. So, more students lead to more employment for Canadians who further pay taxes.\n\n\n3. All students start work straightaway, pay taxes, and do not qualify for social security. They do not qualify for any student loans by Canadian govt or banks. So, they generate revenue for Canada through their work and taxes. The thing that govt LOVES.\n\n\n4. These students become new consumers and their expenditure generate revenues for local businesses.\n\n\n5. Most Colleges would not survive without international students. Which is good in the sense that only quality colleges will survive and other hanky panky colleges would shut down. However, such closures will lead to job losses, bankruptcy when the colleges won't be able to afford their expenses.\n\n\nSo, considering these factors it will be an industry collapse. Govt needs to control immigration. They need to introduce intelligent policies. The steps that current govt is currently taking are politically motivated not rational.

Immigrants speaking about Immigrants. The last trailer thrash speaking crap about Sikh temple shows the Cultural value of the so called Canadians. It's how they are raised and that is one of the reason that most of the Indians live in Brampton. There are good people and there are people in all the world. If you think Canada is a Clean country and having good people only then look at the history and check out what your leaders used to do. So don't blame immigrants because the base of Canada is established on immigrants.

This guy is right for the most part. A gov't telling the world to come in and not integrate or learn English is a big part of the problem. Then there are Indians who exploit Indians overseas. The thing too is the bad people coming now get so much free stuff. The rest of the immigrants who built this country had no programs yet have to pay for the newcomers who are changing the country. So some things aren't the Indians fault. The rest of us who came and adapted now face discrimination from newcomers and our own people who say Canada has no culture. I come from a time when foreigners got along for the most part. Now so many groups that all hate each other. We came here to get away from the crappy people in our country but now they have followed us here and turn the good land bad.

Oh! finally he realized too much peoples coming to Canada is the problem..oh my goodness!

I have canadian PR but based in UK\n.Really confused as to whether I should move to Canada or not.Losing Canadian PR over UK passport seems to be a good idea ?

Stop all bilateral trade with Canada. \nTeach them a lesson and make them understand this is new world order. If Canada wants good relations, they must put an end to this hypocrisy!

If there are more indians in usa canada europe japan South east Asia \nThen its good india will have more influence and lobbying power \nYou can see how Jewish lobby makes USA do what israel wants \nIndians must go to foreign countries

Social medias from Canada it’s not critical thinking in this country. All you’re doing is scapegoating who’s did who a lot of people weren’t doing anything about it in political activism and writing letters to him he’s just keep on blaming heat, but no people to come to Canada from Indian Summer good and there’s a lot of slough too

India has so good college at 1/10 of the price . But the thing 90% of the student go to abroad work and earn money without any bad intentions. Canada open so many fake college to get more international student and change 4-5 time then local ... So it's both student and Canada fault...

This is an everyday reality: even the comments under this video prove that racism is being normalized. Being a non white immigrant in Canada for decades - I have not seen white Canadians so openly racist. Yes they were gaslighting minorities before but only in the last couple of years I faced racism so open and brutal . Let me tell you something grandma : when you end up in residential care because your kids put you there , it’s that Philippina nurse that will take care of you, your healthcare will be supported by the paychecks of those Indian people because your generation did not produce enough people to sustain your rapidly growing aging cohort. I am sorry that towards the end of your life you hold so much hatred in your heart - it can’t be good for your health or your final judgement day. Ironic, but your grandkids could merry one of us non-white people and your great grand kids could have an accent or brown skin colour. I am saddened by all what I am witnessing. But hopeful that humanity will prevail.

The way Canada is going I think is a good idea to just save as much money as you can and move out to better places bc Canada for sure looking like a shit hole

This guy, like his boss & longtime buddy, is soooo out of touch with reality. Born & raised with silver spoons in their mouths….what can you expect???\nThey did a good job destroying Canada.

Who thought electing a drama teacher to run Canada in 2015 with a majority was a good idea ???\nQualifications = Drama\n\nYou didn't answer the question Marc on how your government ##^#^# the country....?\n\n??? safer now ....\n\nNow they are bringing in gazans....\nI guess anti semitism will take a sharp drop along with terrorism ??\n\nPierre is destructive ....?????What a pile of ??????\n\n10 years of these woke ?s..with all the scandals and billions unaccounted for...iberals should be charged with treason

Acknowledging the problem is a good start. Let's get this program going immediately and make Canada?? great again.

As FRENCH, I think it is more an issue with policies set by both governments!!! You know you bring students IN and why don’t you build houses and encourage construction???? In France, many students (mainly Africa, and French departments like Guadeloupe, Tahiti or Martinique) come to study there (for free and we are proud of it!!!) BUT - unlike Canada - we do NOT have the same issues as Canada (our healthcare is NOT under pressure and our housing prices haven’t really increased that much as compared to Canada for example!!!) to me, the students are NOT to blame!!! It is the fault of the deciders (at different level) who have FAILED to set the right policies!!!! The schools are also to blame as some (not all) are so obsessed with making profits out of the higher international fees, which by way, subsidize Canadian students!!! So in Canada (not in France or Germany), the money that allows schools to function come from international students who BRING LOTS OF MONEY for the Canadian economy!!!! in France, it is different as the universities are FREE and are fully subsidized by the French government… but yes;) you have to speak French fluently to attend them!!! \nSo dear Canadians, do not blame foreign students thanks to whom your universities thrive and remain existant!!! Without them (namely the Indians too), the Canadian universities will struggle to find money and funding! Remember, the system in France is TOTALLY different!!!!\nAlso, reading from comments, I notice that many here have NEVER alert their own country!!! Stop blaming foreigners if YOU, YOURSELF DID NOT even get the BALLS to dare studying in places different than yours (like Germany, France, Sweden, Japan…)!!!! Blame and NO BALLS!!! “Grosse gueule mais Pas de couilles” as we say in France!!! Go to Europe if you dare, deal with another language, other cultural codes (we French are big complainers and are very very rude when behind wheels!!!! And we hate people who cannot speak French properly … like North Americans) and We will see how good some of you will do!!!

Why now ? Is the Liberal Government afraid the balance tilt in favour of the opposition party ? \nWhy to ban educated people, who share our culture and values, with good command of one of the official languages, to enter the country ? \n ....after importing by the millions those who are the opposite and are not interested in building Canada, but taking advantage of us and our generous system ?\nToo little too late trudy... even if you get the election by fraud again. You guys have already lost in the hearts and minds of Canadians ... for ever

All of us taxpayers working hard in Canada we have to pay for these some unnecessary migrations. Now is time to consider the good of the country and people that are already Canadian first

GOOD! Should be less. Canada, take care of your own

This is good news!! We are struggling with housing here in Vancouver as in many parts of Canada.

GOOD ITS ABOUT TIME THAT WE BLOCK OUR BORDER FROM ALL THOSE FAKE REFUGIES IN CANADA

If Modi is so good for India then why are so many Indians moving to Canada

Chase Indians and see what becomes of your empty country. I don't support crime but no one can put all the crimes on Indians. I am African not Indian. It's the duty of government to censor the Indians and enforce the values which Canada upholds. Unnecessary attacking foreigners doesn't look good on the indigenous people

. Canada relies on immigration for pretty much everything 1) colleges make money 2) landlords make money 3 ) government makes money from more taxes 4) banks make money from more mortgage applications 5) realtors make money . And they know majority of international students goal is to later. Buy a house Punjabi people own more real estate then most people in Canada combined. Canada government just uses the taxes the more people\nCome the more taxes people\nPay . Don’t forget Canada was not a white man land it belongs to the indigenous people . We are all immigrants from somewhere people get scared of what they don’t understand. Every community has their far share of bad apples. As I agree we do need to have a a tighter immigration system it’s not good when there are to many people\nComing from the same country . And the things the new comers do just make the community look bad People that came to Canada -30 years ago have gotten respect know all that went down the drain .?‍♀️

They are skilled migrants. Why do Canada take them in? Because they lack skilled white people to do their jobs. Also lack of population. Indians don’t do drugs and they work and earn money and contribute to the society. And for the matter of fact they don’t just come from India they are invited to Canada from India by Canadian government policies and by Canadian companies. Medical and IT professionals are given big offers to come and live in Canada. However that may not be the case for students. Students are in large numbers and they want to stay back. Too many students is a problem. Colleges just take in too many of them, because they pay the money. Bring some control over colleges and students intake. There are too many new colleges just for business and that’s not good.

Khalistani activities will lead to this and good in a way so that these fools dont go to canada.

Parents come to Canada to provide free babysitting and cooking services to grandchildren . If they feel lonely it’s because they are not here to make friends but to stay at home . I one case , a grandparent fell ill in Canada and was sent back to India because of inadequate health insurance to take care of himself there on his own while the grandmother was not allowed to go and continued to babysit . These grandparents often are subjected to huge indignities. Lot of comments on how India is so good and Canada so bad . That is so ridiculous. I do not see people immigrating from Canada to India . I do not understand the tale about not getting fresh vegetables . Just step into Loblaws , Zehr , Metro and see what a lie it is . I agree many ethnic stores stock stale vegetables kept in unhealthy conditions . If food doesn’t taste good it’s became no one in the household , neither the grandparents nor the parents , can cook. That is because in India much of cooking is done by servants .

Hello good day sister my name is Emmanuel I live in Germany I will like to chat with you private concerning this Canada

Awesome! Canada would be a good place to seek asylum if Trump wins. We all have the right to flee or fight fascism.

Canadians are too good to accept everyone... but once they come they want everything their way.. not adapting to Canadian way.. get the benefits from Canada and go back and forth. \n\nWhy Canadians don't go to church and build churches.. Canadians are so generous and good because they WERE Christians.\n\nWhy Indians don't stay in hindu and panjabi country?\n\nWhy muslims come to Canada USA and Europe instead of going to saudi arabia or Dubai or Bahrain or some other muslim country?\n\nWhy do chinese come to Canada instead of staying in china that is so developed?\n\nBecause these countries are full of corruption and dishonest.\n\nYou go to a store, McDonald's wherever..they are rude, not courteous.. washrooms are ruined... streets are dirty...

This kind of problem Canada never experienced.\nCanada expected good people and good contributions \nto economy.\nBut cattle invaded, and over crowded everywhere and \nresulting in Collapsing infrastructure.\nIt’s time to reduce immigrants and remove unwanted \nOver flowed immigrants , to maintain social fabric.

Good for India..These students took lot of money from India go abroad and struggle there...Is it necessry???..Be here and do good to your own country.India is much better....Worlds sitution is not good..Canada is filled with terrorists and terror sympatizers and china groups.. not good for Indians...Innocent smart Indian students, wake up and just dont go to Canada...

But the act of indians is also very much not good as to invite their ire and draw negative attention. \n\nThe guy in this video is a poor Canadian born and he is suffering un necessarily due to some indians immigrating to Canada for third rate education lessons and just to Stelle their at any cost.

If Indian journalists had done better jobs, some innocent people would be free without any problems now. \n\nDo you know if Canadian citizens learn something about sikh independentist? \n\nDo you know if Hardeep Singh Nijjar did something from Canada to India? Never forget media across the world have people to translate your news. \n\nCanada doesn't make enough effort to protect the population and accepts everything from strangers. It is not acceptable for a country to commit murders in another country. The Indian government is not rational on this point; only small policies without any vision. Reputation of India for only one citizen at this point, they could have 1,428,627,663 conflicts around the world, one for each citizen, good luck. \n\nI would boycott a lot of newcomers from India to avoid this kind of problem until having a real solution. Canadians can't inquire about newcomers from India. Canada is not a prison, we don't have to make effort to receive immigration. I think Canadians deserve a safe country. This is not refusal, but we don't need to import problem in this beautiful country.

No! These are supposed to be intelligent people. You do your homework before considering going to another country, especially as a student. My parents couldn't raise that kind of money to pay for me to study in another country, or even in my own country. Life isn't fair, but Canadians need priority to be housed in Canada. India has very good schools at affordable prices for Indians, and also very high prices for international students. I looked into studying in India and I couldn't afford it as an International student. India should re evaluate its priorities, before spending billions on space programs. India should also decide who it wants to be friends with. I am sure there are lots of good schools in Russia, who right now it prefers over the West.

The issue is the political handlers are all about their agenda and that's their bank accounts their pensions and how easily they can get to where they want to go.\nAnd who's going to get them there. The annoying thing is when I hear good people say they are not racist and don't want to stand up to those politicians who need to hear their voice. To you people I would like to say...do you know how racist India is? Do you know they have a CAST SYSTEM? Look it up because you most likely will not find another nationality employed in any Indian business in Brampton at least no person of colour. Do your due diligence and be better informed because there is racism there and they are bringing it here lots of untold stories out there. GOOD MORNING CANADA IT'S TIME TO WAKE UP.\n\nWHO IS STANDING GUARD FOR THEE?

Canada doesn't need ethnic enclaves we just need a good country. Wondering where it all went sideways? Simple: FOLLOW THE *MONEY* - Federal *tax-payer* money..

1:08 Separate home land for anyone in India means a direct attack on sovereignty of the largest democracy in the world. It’s not just a movement it’s same as what hamas is doing to Israel. Terrorism. They have done it in past will keep doing it. Canada is just asking for it at this point. Good luck Canadians.

Send Back The Jihadis , Indians are good For Canada , specially The Hindus .

Oh, Brampton’s over 80% non-white, and now it’s a 'mass immigration crisis,' is it? Interesting. I wonder how the Indigenous people felt when waves the Europeans came over and started making themselves at home. You know, back when mass immigration also happened, except the native population didn’t exactly get a warm welcome either—more like the opposite.\n\nI mean, isn’t it ironic? A country built on immigration now complaining about… immigration. It’s almost like history has a sense of humor. But hey, at least now we have the internet so everyone can share their thoughts on 'who belongs' in a land that wasn’t really theirs to begin with. Funny how that works, right?\n\nOh yes, Canadian culture and values—those timeless, ancient traditions that go all the way back to… the last couple of centuries? I mean, forgive me, but when exactly did Canada, a country that came into existence through colonization, suddenly develop this pure, distinct culture that’s now under 'threat'?\n\nLet’s talk about Canadian values—like diversity, inclusion, and… oh wait, that’s only good until people from different backgrounds actually show up. Then it’s suddenly a 'crisis.' Classic.\n\nAnd what exactly are we preserving here? Maple syrup and hockey? Because, newsflash, multiculturalism is Canadian culture now. It’s the same 'values' that were conveniently forgotten when Indigenous communities were being erased. But sure, let’s act like a few more immigrants are going to dismantle the grand, rich, centuries-old tapestry of... Tim Hortons and politeness.\n\nHonestly, if the presence of more people of color is that threatening to 'Canadian values,' maybe those values were never that strong to begin with.

Toxic people.. but I bet Justin Trudeau would keep this exchange also in his freedom of speech BS he keeps repeating. Seems Canada deserves to be led by a man like Justin Trudeau only. On their way to be another Pakistan (no use country supporting and exporting terror and burden on the world, all to keep usa happy). Well usa will move on to the next subservient nation who the usa would call ally. To Usa ally means servant. First Pakistan then Europe Now Canada... who knows who they will harm next. Better to keep distance from usa. Can't be trusted apart from the fact that they will dump you for their own good everytime.

Gets those Indians out of Canada now they are no good for Canada because of Trudeau we now have a huge unwanted India problem in Canada Trudeau is making Canada into India get out wake up Canada or we will be in lots of trouble in Canada

I can't why Canada would accuse the Indian government of this if they didn't have a very good reason to do so.

She is not wrong fully, I have met good sofesticated indians living in Canada and they say that people coming from mostly Punjab and Haryana have made a havoc in Canada. They are too loud, dirty and filthy. There is a big safety concers for Canadians and even Indian origin canadians in Canada. Even our people who have gone there to work legally say that they don't want any indian in Canada. I am living in Europe and I see the same thing. People from our country just don't have any civic sense, they are mostly very dirty and because of them, many people find it difficult to find a apartment. Before slamming that lady, we should think of ourselves and we should improve our nation first.

Really good video. But as a Canadian, I also want to mention foreign workers. Foreign workers have a lower minimum wage than Canadians. This makes it nearly impossible for young Canadians to find jobs, as companies which you would think would mostly hire teens (Fast food) just wait until a foreign worker steps up. Go to the US, you see a McDonald's with a bunch of teens in it, go to Canada, and that McDonald's has only foreign workers in it.
