Most of the really negative comments come from lefties, especially female or gay ones. Not surprising, as Canada is more tolerant of such things. Too much so, if you ask me. We could do with more morals in Canada, as we've become very hedonistic and selfish under Trudeau's eoke socialism. I'm not a fan of American gun culture or the extreme political polarization. However, I do admire the fact that free speech seems valued more highly in the US. Also, Canada is over-regulated and over-taxed. Unfortunately, there's a large class of freeloaders in Canada as a result.

Really unfortunate timing that Justin decided to read his ugly narcissistic larp for the last 8 years, my family has felt the effects and it will take millions of people making responsible sacrifices for the next decade to unfuck this country.

My mom and brother are in Canada. I'm trying to move her to Texas with me. I make great money in Real Estate and IT. She doesn't want to leave Toronto, even though she can't afford it. I travel back and forth to drop money for her. All though she doesn't ask me, I know it helps. We're all from Jamaica and unfortunately I was separated from her for 30 years. I'm glad, I'm in a position to take care of her. If I can only convince her to leave Canada for good. My little brother wants to come to America with me.

The problem with Canada is we export billions every day, month and year take your pock. We export billions to foreign countries like never before and unfortunately live paycheck to paycheck on a monthly basis. We need to mandate a manufacturing move of made in Canada and Canadian only manufacturing.

He can keep his religion at home , bringing knives to school are not allowed , not even allowed in india ??, these khalistani kids are brain washed unfortunately

Some people have commented about Indian accent, here are the facts. \n\nSo only Indian accent bothers you. Unfortunately, we Indians are the world leaders. For the following reasons with our uncomfortable accent\n1. In the USA, we are less than 1%, and guess what? 6% of the yearly tax of the US is paid by Indians. Look at the statistics. It's all there. \n2. In the US and Canada, most of the hotels, gas stations, and liquor stores are owned by Indians. \n3. CEOs of the tech giants are Indian. \n4. Even UK Prime Minister is Indian. \n5. The winners of spelling bee competitions are Indian kids. \n6. Median family income among Indian Americans between the ages of 25 and 55 was $133,130 in 2019, well above the white median income of $86,400.\nWe don't care about people who could be judgemental. Yes, the accent is not important for anyone who wants to grow. No heartfeelings. I said this just to clear the vision of some people.

British Islamic Republic.... Unfortunately UK has nuclear weapons... Maybe it's time for NATO to conduct a pre emptive strike in London...

Unfortunately I agree with the Republicans. We can’t have uncontrolled borders. You cannot do this in any country. We obviously need legal immigration. We have quotas on the number we can let in each year because that’s how much the system can accommodate. When we go above those numbers… it F’s up everything.

Unfortunately there's only 1 option.

Canada can't do better because we are a colony of the US and we are never going to do better than the master. If the US keeps on declining, we are only going to decline farter. Unfortunately, we are stuck with the neighbor we have and we are not strong enough to force the necessary changes we need.

Unfortunate but the whole world is under chaos with high prices and low income.

First, I want to thank you for making this video. The health of a country, or the health of an individual which are clearly linked, is dependent on our ability to see ourselves and each other, and make necessary changes to improve in the areas that we lack personally, and as communities in our beautiful country of Canada and other countries as well. Well, it’s a work in progress. I appreciate how you’ve inspired us to speak about things that aren’t necessarily spoken about. At least not where I live and have lived in Canada. Thank you so much for that opportunity. It doesn’t matter about my opinion. What matters is sharing our own thoughts, feelings, and experiences because they aren’t debatable. \n\nWe are in violation of Multiple Human Rights violations against Inuit , Indigenous and Métis people by the United Nations. Most have no water to drink—not even boiled water and bottled water is available sometimes when it’s brought to reservations . Children don’t have the same access to books. So many thousands of bodies of children taken to residential schools from their parents arms and community for over 160 years yet the deep wounds aren’t given compassion by most people anymore and systemic abuse actively impacts them and therefore all of Us . We are all one whether we see people as other’ or not. We’re humans. \n They’re not seen in media unless it’s a bad story yet we’re only now teaching one mandatory class by non indigenous people. Solution: elders teach their grandchildren languages that weren’t erased by genocide and environmental /spiritual cultural practices and lifestyles before they’re gone by paying first people elders and streaming it into all Canadian classrooms so the children can see a future where they’re valued and all Canadian kids can get a full education and learn accurate history. Making canoes, baskets, sacred ceremonies, food growing (that they taught to pilgrims so they’d survive here), etc. No, I’m not indigenous. I’m an immigrant like all but the first people. They’ve an amazing culture that’s been all but lost . When we don’t see ourselves represented in any media, any careers, and start our lives in extended poverty based on our race, and all that was taken still today, it’s no wonder the teen suicide rate for indigenous youth is more than double / triple all non - indigenous youth. The numbers are growing. \nI live in Care due to my physical disabilities . An international nursing student worked for me providing personal care like showers, meal prep etc and over that year, she said she wouldn’t have moved here specifically because of a few things I’ve mentioned. She told me Canada was sold to people in her country of origin as a ‘multicultural’ safe haven without extreme racism still prevalent today and within our history. \n\nI’m ashamed of Canadian government promises for over 100 years that aren’t fulfilled. All children deserve healthy drinking Water and an education. Period. Especially, the ambassadors of this amazing land that they see as themselves without separation. That’s accurate. We will have nothing to stand upon if we don’t protect the earth. It will go on without us. \n\nI see many things in the comments I’ve seen or experienced, unfortunately. This is a beautiful country for so many reasons. It’s important that from such abundance we listen to your video, look at ourselves honestly and i feel, be the change we want to see in the world like Gandhi said.\n\nMuch love and healing from an All inclusive advocate. All life matters.

As a white Canadian male I freely admit that many Canadians are racists. Not only that, we are polite but we aren’t very friendly. I try to be nondiscriminatory in my ways. Unfortunately my grumpy disposition usually gets me into trouble.

Generally all countries hate American blacks because they know they're killers. Americans unfortunately have been cuckled and have to just take it or they'll lose their jobs. \nSoon Americans will be sick and tired of being cuckled in their own country.

Yea Mexico needs to do something. Unfortunately the cartels run the show down there. They have more equipment and weapons than the Mexican army. We need a wall. This mass of people coming in is crazy. This is how they get away with human trafficking. Boarders are not just for those inside. They’re there to protect everyone and help weed out the bad people. I also don’t understand why the left doesn’t consider that. They don’t believe bad people and human trafficking exist and this is how they’re getting away with it

If you are black and want to live your Best life in Canada go to Montréal. it is a majority of french speakers but you will meet People from all around the globe. Caucasians Latinos asians blacks from the carribean africa Europe Canada usa. better if you learn french and this is the problem of most americans they can only speak american unfortunately but if you are willing to live freely you have to make that intellectual effort. Bonne chance ?

Unfortunately I'm not the least bit surprised

It's unfortunate, I can say I have faced heavy racism as an African nurse in EU( not to mention the country) it starts with systemic, macroagression etc. Sure I'm removing myself from the situation completely. Sister be strong, I feel you

My heart goes out to you honey. Black people are under siege all over the world. Canadians are some of the nicest people I have ever met, but there are plenty of those white supremacists among them. Unfortunately it is no different in AmeriKKKa. Please stay strong sister....don't let those people break your heart or dampen your spirit.

You can have ours, free. Most horrific country we're unfortunately still stuck affiliating with, as our family's righrs and all assets being stolen by the locals and tgeir monopolies. Corruption at every level!

So you base the whole white population of Canada as racists on the opinion, dubious at best, of yet another Black woman suffering from severe victimhood syndrome. Before you yet again insult Whites, prove to us ... why her brother was fired, and had the N word insinuated, Mommy sues and wins for what ? and she herself was mistreated in a Health Centre, very unfortunate family or just people hoping to find offence at every turn. Prove what's said or shut up, because none of this is remotely true AND YOU KNOW IT !! Being a bigot is pathetic, and you're becoming farcical in your desperation to prove that 1. Blacks are always wronged, discriminated against and abused. 2. Whites are all evil racists and white supremisists. The real truth is Africans suffer due to uncontrolled corruption across every Black Nation, there's unbelievable inefficiency at every level of Society, and violence against one another is endemic, also considering that the continent has been occupied for over 70,000 years longer than Europe (Which was covered in ice) you haven't achieved a whole lot, what little you have achieved is moreover thanks to white inventiveness, Science (Malaria vaccine in 2022), exploration, Engineering and education. If you can't be grateful for all the great general achievements of whites in Africa, at least stop stealing our Heroes, Fictional favourites and Royals to copy on screen and elsewhere. Not the most imaginative people judging by you, it may be flattering to some, but sad in reality. Lets be honest, nobody is dying or drowning to get to Africa or the Caribbean, young Africans go to extreme lengths to reach Europe, the USA and yes Canada ... grow up !

I've lived in Winnipeg, Manitoba for 4 years...Never again!!!! I have to admit I gladly went back to Germany were racism is unfortunately still a daily thing. But Canada? Never ever, again!!!!!

Unfortunately, we need to work on us , we have a lot of work to do and can help anyone else until we help ourselves

I love Mexico but unfortunately right now things are horrible here in the U.S we are in survival mode too.

The UK is pretty much like Canada, now. There is only room for the 5% who are rich (the capitalists & rentiers) and the 35% of people on Benefits (the 35% of population who live off welfare paid for by the State using the hard-working tax payer's money). The honest, hard-working middle-class (about 50 to 60% of society) are absolutely screwed and doomed, because all they can now do is keep working their guts out till they drop dead, and never hope to have a decent life. The culture of state-funded Welfare has now gotten so bad that I now live in a street where some 30% of the people who live off Welfare have been given State funded houses, and those houses which are bigger and better than mine (all paid for using my tax money). And I have slogged my entire life (I am 65 now) to pay off a large mortgage on a house that eventually has lower value than the houses that people on Welfare are given on the same Street! Worse still, now that I am approaching the stage where I might need to go into a Care Home, my house (which I worked for my entire life to attain) will have to be sold off to pay for my Care Home costs. While my neighbours who never worked a single day in their life (and whose life was subsidized using my tax money) will again get free state-funded Care Home facility too! It utterly beggars belief. \n\nWhen state-funded Welfare gets to a point that doing an honest day's work actually penalizes you, because all you are doing is funding the lifestyles of the other half of society who wish to sponge off State Welfare (due to the high taxes the Government is forced to impose on the working middle-class to support the 35% on State benefits), then that society can never prosper, firstly because it removes the motivation to work hard, and secondly because some day the Government will run out of money to continuing funding the lavish lifestyles of people on State Welfare. And that is very much now the state of affairs in countries like Canada, the UK, and much of EU. It is an unsustainable model. \n\nBy contrast, in countries like the US, China, India, etc. there is a much greater correlation between hard work and reward. Choosing to not go to work and sponging off Governmental welfare is simply not an option. And that is precisely why countries like these will continue to prosper in the coming years - because they have some form of Meritocracy. Unfortunately, I think countries like the UK, Canada, and most western EU countries are looking at a downward spiral, and there are no easy solutions, because their Welfare model has already created these huge segments of society which depend on it and will not allow it to be demolished - but the day is fast approaching where they will all soon run out of money to continue funding it (most of these countries are already facing huge Debt-GDP ratios, and there is no conceivable way of them coming out of it).

There are homeless and unemployed Americans. Some of which are Veterans. Unfortunately, we can not collect all the people from third world countries. We just can not do it. The expense would be too great.??

Unfortunately the United States needs to bring freedom to Venezuela and a bunch of other countries. If they had armed citizens they wouldn’t be leaving.

It's kind of unfortunate but I really do believe we need a private group of citizens to go out and start hunting these illegal immigrants in the desert leaving swathes of bodies strewn across the land. These people are only coming like this because they are being told that they will be safe and that the Americans will be too afraid to fight back. It's an invasion and we know what to do with Invaders we stack them

Get the military there no force them to stop. We have to treat them as hostile unfortunately because it’s them coming here and destroying everything or trying our hardest to stop them from coming. If they did this to any other country like Russia or Iran or china or even Mongolia, they would probably execute or arrest you on sight.

I can't fukkin believe CNN is showing or admitting that this is the situation. Maybe all the lying and loss of viewers is finally catching up to them ? \nThey'll still lie about Trump though, they have no morals or ethics so that's not gonna change unfortunately

Unfortunately we can thank Biden for this! When most of us can't even find affordable housing I wonder where all of these people are actually going to sleep? People are out in their cars their campers their vans and some are on bicycles sleeping under the stars. So I wish the migrants good luck most Americans are not happy about the situation we will see what kind of reception they get.

I just wanna say a big thank you to Uncle Joe Burden. Since I office my 400 cousins have managed to get into the USA and have all got a nice blue T shirt, a cell phone and some 100 dollar bills. Some of em got free transport to wherever they like to go. So nice of uncle Joe. About 13 of my cousins have even got jobs already in government institutions. What a blessing. Thank you Joe Burden. Unfortunately tho this country will be toast in less that 10 years. Oh well, we better enjoy it while we can right. Anyway my Uncle Joe says it's all his grand idea, but I know he doesn't even know which ice cream he's eating today. It's really my other Uncle Barack who's the brains behind this wonderful turn of events. But we not allowed to talk about that.

It would be fine, if they became Americans, but unfortunately, they remain faithful to their old culture, the one so shitty they had to leave it.

Unfortunately things like this are happening and in Europe ?

Unfortunately, sad to report the USA have a corrupt government in Place this is why this is happening

I came to the states when I was little unfortunately I had to start working I was 15 I worked in a restaurant so i could support my sick mother in my country then I learned English and moved into a different job I never had the opportunity to go to the school since Noone would supported me !! I fall in love with some US girls we have 2 kids she worked sometimes I never pushed her to do so ! I tried to fix papers but the lawyers took my money and never did nothing about it ! I got into a traffic incident I got a ticked and fine once I payed off I get caught and sent back to a place I should call home !! I don't know nobody here don't know the place anymore !! dangerous people crazy !! my kids abandoned in the states now probably their mother asking for help to the government? who knows the last thing I heard is she was selling what it used to be our properties! I don't have contact with my kids anymore ! is horrible then we have this people just going there and getting asylum??? not fare!

Doesn't this say alot about Mexico, all of Central America, and South America as a whole? Must be horrible to live in these places if everyone wants to flee no matter the risks or costs.\n\n\nAlso the southern part of US (Majority Republican dominated) does not take kindly to immigrants, very unfortunate for immigrants as it does not favor them much.

This unfortunately has the potential to start a chain reaction that collapses the country. A country without a strong protected border will eventually fail.

Honey…. That’s everywhere. Unfortunately being a black man in St. Louis I totally understand. Racism is at an all time high here. Being originally from Michigan I was shocked.

And that’s why the second amendment is so important-most of these people can’t fight their tyrannical governments. Unfortunately you to pay the price for that second amendment but you decide? Cartels wouldn’t be so bad ass when they invade small towns if everyone had a 9 mm at the house. It would go down but with a fight

Racism is a nasty disease among ignorant white supremacists and it is absolutely impossible to eradicate this miserable disease. Unfortunately it will never go away, we have to live with it as we have done so far and only mother nature knows the outcome.

I'm at my local news this morning on my local news, they said the government reported that illegal immigration was down by 50%. Mainstream news media is garbage but unfortunately that's what most people watch.

South America needs fixing. Unfortunately, over many decades the USA's foreign policies have supported corrupt dictators/governments friendly to the US. And the useless 'war on drugs' has just made things worse.

Unfortunately this people maybe he has problems about family or something

As long as most of us have jobs, we would not think racism exists? Unfortunately it's when our personal material comfort is affected that most of highlight issue of racism, it's something we should be aware of irrespective of our personal material comfort, explains why some people get a shock amongst these people anywhere in the world

Unfortunately it's all in God's plan. It's the END of this country and of the world.

I heard Calgary is pretty bad as well. Its unfortunate to hear that Edmonton is like that, since they seem against Trudeau. smh

Unfortunately, Trudeau will never get it

Unfortunately they have a bad life but they need to go thru the proper channels.

even if you cross the border, you're just gonna be sent back unfortunately unless you go through the legal process. they always have a way of finding out.
