I live right on the Canadian border to Michigan near Detroit and talking to an agent who goes to my gym, he says they are catching more coming across the Detroit river than ever before. The city I grew up in 1970-80 was 98% white and now 40% is hispanic and growing. Soon very few whites will even border Detroit in the burbs. White males are not getting good blue collar jobs because they’re going to more DEI applicants. Cities that were vibrant with large shopping centers and baseball fields are gone and empty. Kids don’t play outside anymore and the downtown districts are gone.

We have a lot of ignorant people in our country. People that wanted to focus on harassing LGBT, ect. not due to morality but because they're easy targets, while actually real issues were going on. This is what they get. God is obviously pissed. But we know their next move, as the country is torn apart, they'll blame LGBT that were just minding their own business. GOOD LUCK! Y'ALL GOT WHAT YOU WANTED!! \n ??

People go to Canada in order to get into the united states.. sounds more like they're trying to work and not get raped by taxes

This is going to get so bad, we are in a recession and the tax base is going to drop off a cliff. There won’t be money for any of this. They’re going to be riots in the street.

We will put fences up on the northern border. Also, and we will have protection from border guards with a new President. We're spending money on border protection and we will be deporting people in mass. They?\nShould leave now because ice is going to send them home with a one way ticket.And they will be on a criminal list so they can't enter the country again

Is New York the new Sweden? We have the same issues with immigrants pouring in from all over the world. We're changing policies now but it's going to take a lot of time to get shit back in order. Don't do the same mistakes we did or New York will become New Yorkistan

Don't know why these people are coming in but they might as well turn around go back home because they're going home in November one way or another

OMG I don’t know why it didn’t occur to me the flood over the unnoticed northern border not even being counted now I understand Michigan and Wisconsin infiltration going unnoticed and we’re still sticking with the 10 million

So those migrants are getting 20K cards for food and rent are you guys mad yet, they're taking our tax money and giving it to them for free, every month. Keep voting for democrats if you want to see those SSS going straight to their pockets, Good luck in retirement. have a nice day.

they’re getting food stamps, and cash benefits every month. I pay for that against my will. They are transferring my wealth to foreigners who have no stake in my tax dollars I want my tax dollars to go to infastructure and existing programs.

I don't know why they call these Invaders migrants migrants are people that go back at the end of the season after picking fruit. These people are illegal aliens from another place in space Maybe outer space for all I know they could be from Mars cuz they're all illegal aliens

So a legal resident that's on Social security, most of the time supporting a family, has to live and pay rent on less than $1000 a month but an illegal family gets rent bills food clothes and $1400? Sounds legit, this is the stupidest shit I've ever seen. What is going to happen to our country? We're gonna end up like the countries they're fleeing. This is ridiculous wake up! VOTE Get these yahoos out of office that are destroying our lives and our childrens futures!!!! Im so scared for our childrens futures.

And GUESS WHAT? THEY'RE ALL GOING TO VOTE FOR OBAMA / HARRIS!! It will be amazing 95% will be cheating OBAMA.

Fun fact! You can say you're going to Alaska from Washington State. And then don't! They come up from the Darien gap. Up through Cali to Washington, say you're going to Alaska and then get into Canada that way. Take the #1 hwy across Canada to Ontario and then to New York. It's not hard to see this happening.

Respect bro you're on your game knowing the ins and outs of new york you're on top of everything happening there ? i still use gps to go to the stores down the street and I've lived in my city since birth ???‍♂️

What fuck is this!this is some stupid shit if these people are here illegally they should to ins detention and if they're here legally they should do the operations with social services department to show these people what they got in their accounts and set a waiver stateing that they must pay it back from their interest account also i think they need to setup homeless tents outside of the city and conduct social services operations at site and it is strange why is all these people are coming here from Mexico and other countries it looks like something illegal is going on the governor needs to talk too the government in the country where they are coming from i see they're coming here on buses ? and i know the government is not paying for these people too come here in all i think these should be divertrd to other states is they can brought here nuy the buses! That eleveate this problem!

We (Canada) need to get serious about border security. We're used to migrants coming FROM the US TO Canada, but now it's going the other way.

Hmm I feel so bad for everyone involved in this. I don't really want cartels going over the US border but I really don't mind all the people fleeing from countries that are even worse then the US. So many of them have such horror stories from their native countries. And if they're willing to work here I don't think there should be really a problem. I just really wish they wouldn't all congregate in the big cities and would move more to a lot of the rural places that are losing people. The housing is getting so expensive in the big cities I'm not sure how they can afford even stay there.

I left the New York area about 5 years ago I went out west what are they going to do up there they're going to get on welfare and food stamps and then the Democrats who won the votes regardless of the crime goes up or anything doesn't matter there are no jobs out there for so-called working class people other than construction and they gave all those jobs to Mexican people basically in the last 20 years what are betrayal American people as long as they pay the corporate people and the government people that's all that matters to them

Stop ALL HANDOUTS. No benefits for immigrants. ZERO SOCIAL SECURITY. ZERO TAX DEDUCTIONS. ZERO NIMBY POLICIES!!! ZERO HEALTHCARE!\nUntil average workers can afford food and shelter you get NOTHING!\nBoomers and Genx graped and pillaged America's treasury to NOTHING, AND THEY'RE STILL GOING!!!

The replacement theory, they're not trying to replace the White voter. These illegal aliens are going to be voting in November whether they know it or not.

Canada is become one of the worst countries and their dealing with one of the worst presidency the kamla and Biden presidency who have made these laws in conjunction to bring in as many illegals as they can just like they flew them in this will be another time they try to steal the election and with a legal votes I think you're going to find Americans are about to go to Civil War because they're tired of this they're tired of their country being stolen by people who work for us it's time for us to make changes we may have to throw everyone out of our government and start again folks because our government is so corrupt and so hated everywhere

Absolutely incorrect. Mexican nationals need visas to go into Canada. It doesn’t matter what country you’re from. If you fly to another country, you need a visa or a passport.

If you think this is bad, it’s only gonna get worse closer to we get to the election. The Biden administration does not do anything at all to curve this. Many American seniors are suffering from this. I personally have talked to them. They’re coming over right now to New York to get the benefits. I don’t know if you’ve seen the video on YouTube about the woman that has a receipt of a $13,000 food stamp snap benefit per month. Even if she’s feeding a whole family for that many American seniors are getting less than $500 somewhere around 300. I understand. KAMALA HARRIS DOES NOT CARE THAT YOU HAVE TO GO IN YOUR POCKET TO SUPPORT THESE PEOPLE . THEY ARE COMING OVER FOR BENEFITS AND IT’S JUST A MATTER OF TIME, A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE ONE OF THESE MIGRANTS COMING OVER HERE. DOES SOMETHING BAD THAT WE’RE ALL GOING TO KNOW ABOUT.. IF YOU VOTE FOR KAMALA HARRIS, IT’S ONLY GOING TO GET WORSE

As a Canadian, I'm happy they're going back to New York. Get them out of Canada.

But if you're American and you sneak in another country or outstay visa. You go to jail and they take all your money

Pathetic protests, need to be stopped. They can’t hear you they are to far away. Go protest in muslim countries please. Oh no, you’re not allowed because they don’t want you there.

Go back to Venezuela they're bringing all these people here and we don't have enough space in the rent is going too high. They need to bring them for other reasons and they need to check their background specially coming from

Congrats Canada! I said years ago that if your immigrants have no desire to assimilate then you're just going to turn into the UK. Good luck

I think where the west gets it wrong each time it's the fact that they aren't pressing for assimilation into the country you're coming into no way in hell it should work like that in every western country when you come to a county as an immigrant the first thing that should be on your mind is how I can integrate myself better into the culture i want to be part of it you're not interested in that why are you coming go improve your own country and enjoy your own culture like you wanted these kind of actions should be a reason to for deportation

Isn’t there anywhere else these people can go in the world except for Canada? We’re just Canada.

When the man says they’re replacing his building with parking lots, and you take it upon yourself to interpret that as “high rise buildings”— perhaps as in, for foreigners— this is bad journalism. \n\nDon’t say things off the cuff that add to your narrative if you’re not going to bother to research them because it sends the message that your just tainting your message to fit what you personally are angry about. The term fascist gets misused a lot, but this is actually a very fascist thing to do. \n\nI’m all for a strong Canada, but don’t be the fool that thinks swinging it all the way the other way is the better option.

Yes I understand his point but at the end of the day they’re still not taking any in and they should you can always return them and you can still push for them to have their lands but I don’t think they have to stay the sacrificed to do that. If they’re helping them and truly fighting for their land you should be able to remove people for safety reasons leave the fighters behind when it’s safe you can return the people and they probably should make systems in the neighbourhood areas and yeah other countries in Europe and whatever yes we all should help out each other like that I think for sure . Also if people want to leave in peace and harmony , When they return because yeah you should take in the vulnerable people while they’re in wall countries neighbour called country should do that and yeah you should return them properly after and create systems for that , then work on having peace , can’t keep both fighting and throwing rockets so equally needs to be responsibility and obviously people are always going to fight and always have war so I do think yeah we should start creating humanitarian systems where we do take people in and then just yeah fight for their land do the right thing try to get peace when it’s over return the people I just create better systems like that because obviously we think it’s going to be over and then years later people are at war and all these innocent people have to suffer and it isn’t fair and they shouldn’t have to all the sacrifices to fight for their land anyway that’s what I think I think we should be trying to avoid more death you know let the fighters fight that’s bad enough that soldiers have to die and be sacrificed but protect the people as best as we can if people want to volunteer and they want to fight okay but I think you should try to protect the people

We're seeing all of this because Trump couldn't keep his f'en mouth shut, and let the bipartisan border deal go through. That's the one you need to blame the orange moron!

They're so entitled. We need to turn them around by whatever means necessary. Go home

They're trying to get across the border now because they realize when Trump comes into office they're really going to be stopped

How did you get into this country if you’re undocumented? Go home and do the paperwork like normal people and wait! We have enough ppl here that shouldn’t be here. It used to be that ppl had sponsors to immigrants - where did that program go? At least sponsors provided the necessities for 2 yrs!

In 2 years they're all going to be living better than us Canadians in Canada.

We want the Palestinian people to have their land but those that are contacting me want to evacuate to safety perhaps go to other countries that will embrace them, I live in Oakland CA USA my neighbors are Yemen people who I shop at their store, we are good friends, but I embrace my Muslim brothers and sisters, they're not sleeper cells or terrorists, just people that are trying to live just like me ?⚜️???

But isn’t it also true that in the hospitals Hamas has weaponry set up so they can hurt his real people and isn’t it also they’re underneath the schools this is a shame what’s going on here on everybody’s part but at the same time if you’re going to have people who are attacking other countriesthis is what the end result comes out to be stand with Israel

Were losing our own identity and culture. We have immigrants coming here treating our country like garbage. Protesting non-Canadian values and disrupting our life’s. Even going so far as to defecate on our beaches or trashing our parks. It’s depressing. What do we do at this point? I’m getting emotional just typing this stupid YouTube comment. I’m not proud to be Canadian anymore. I dont hate these people but I feel the tension rising. We’re not welcoming anymore.

I used to go to a small college in steeles west. We were only a few students in there maybe 20 to 40+ with 2 programs combined. Very chill, everyone knows one another and had fun hanging in the lounge area/ cafeteria. But man, when the indian students arrived, we lost that comfort and place in that building. It transformed within days to their own environment, whats worst is they keep having celebrations and parties when we were having classes and exams. That experience really had me change my perception on the new indian immigrants, theres just zero respect on their surrounding as long as they have the party. Im an immigrant myself, but bringing your culture with you in a foreign country and expect everyone to adhere to it is just...yeesh. im just glad im done with that school. We're the second last batch to ever stayed there before the college finished their Toronto building for the new students.

They came here knowing they had to go home. So go home! They're tent city everywhere. They knew they had to go back!

They're all homies and they all need to go.

Perfect, now we're on the same page... go home

A little bit skewed but the video makes some good points. I move from Canada to the US in 2016. The US is wild and there are many downsides, such as lack of healthcare and unaffordable higher education to name only the two most glaring ones out of many, but it is economically more vibrant. Regarding rent prices in large cities, if I were to live in Canada again, I'd definitely steer away from Vancouver or Toronto. Montreal has very affordable apartment prices comparatively if you're willing to put up with learning French for instance. Food prices have gone up but so have they in the US since COVID, whether you're living north or south of the border, it's not much better... In the end it's all about weighing pros and cons. What are you willing to sacrifice / let go of, and what is something you can't live without?

Your comparison of Canada to the US is seriously misplaced. Canada is the second largest country in the world, next to Russia. Our population of 40 million ppl is low which is great. Canada is a very diverse country. CANADA is more than Toronto or Montreal. There are many beautiful cities in western Canada, Saskatoon is an example with a population of close to 400K and yes, it’s a city, not a small town. Personally I’d never live in Toronto, and as a life long resident of Canada, born and raised here, who has travelled the entire country. And visited several states as a former professional softball player. Travelled many countries as well as the Caribbean. I would also move to the West Indies, primarily the island of St. Vincent and the Grenadines or maybe New Zealand. If I moved from the west within Canada, I’d move to the Eastern seaboard, Nova Scotia is really nice. Both of you, your eyes are wide shut about Canada lol. You’re missing the boat with your country comparison. Come to the west, outside of Vancouver. Give it a go. You just must like it!!! Thx for the reaction tho.

Mexicans want to go there. I myself want to. But they ask for visa now. We're dying down here.

This is why I would never go to one of these white countries. They're too jealous of us to be civil with us.

Don't care if you're Indian, just learn English and USE DEODOURANT. When I go to Dominos and I smell BO more so than the pizza, that's a problem.
