People should avoid Toronto airports

Toronto cast but people still Dey enter. Abeg make we pray for mercy and Grace and carry all your documents

Also for context the entire population of canada fits in California. But its mostly bunched up in vancouver, Toronto and Quebec. All.of alberta, saskatchewan and manitoba would only fill half of ontario. All of alberta fits in Toronto with some room to spare.

THERE ARE 1.3 MILLION PAKI’S IN BRAMPTON AND MISSISSAUGA ITS A DISGRACE . CANADA IS NOW A THIRD WORLD COUNTRY. TORONTO USED TO BE THE BEST CITY TO LIVE IN ALL OF NORTH AMERICA BACK IN 1980 . NOW ITS DROPED TO #48 THANK YOU TO BOTH TRUDEAU’S ??????

Toronto. Where do you think all these people come from? Your towns? Yep. Because you have no supports for them so they come where supports are. Or where they thought there would be. We didn’t create this problem but we as a city are the ones trying to cope with it. And re immigration it is needed or in 20-30 years there pension coffers will be empty.

Woah and I thought the American housing crisis was bad, but Canada just takes the cake to a whole other level!\nI mean sure there are the expensive states, like California, but not even their prices pale in comparison to the absolute monster of renting or buying a home in Vancouver or in Toronto.

I'm an immigrant. Came here in the early 90s as a 3 year old. And i remember seeing people of all backgrounds in school. Eastern Europeans, Asians, and etc. But now they all seem to be Indian. Why do we keep importing Indians? Toronto now is comprised mostly of Indians and Asians. We have no homes, infrastructure is falling apart, and hospital wait times are at an all time high. International students all Indians. All the cars getting stolen are by Indians. The gold heist at Pearson all Indian.

Toronto was my home town...I am now 73 but have lived in Norwich, England for decades. My relatives have moved out of Toronto to the Muskokas; but they always tell me how expensive the city now is. My cousin was in real estate so he knows whereof he speaks! Another cousin has moved to New Brunswick. I cannot go back any more because I always see more societal decline and it depresses me thoroughly. The Toronto of the Centennial year 1967 I will always remember fondly: a paradise! Problems seemed to be something other cities experienced. And the Leafs won the Stanley Cup!

claiming no one wants to live in Canada, you'd never know it with its open door immigration policy. I grew up outside of Toronto in the 70's. Now it looks like a Muppet Movie.

Doesnt seem to be Toronto . Thanks to Trudeau 20$ cant buy you a dinner that too take out home delivery in entire GTA

Landed in Toronto Pearson the other day and I thought I was in India ?

You got sth wrong... I would like to live in Canada! One of my fellow school mates migrated to Toronto a few years back, she left a good job and a nice flat here in Germany. What's all this negativity about?

Mostly the people in Toronto voted FJT

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.

Toronto was awesome in the 90s now the city is turning into a crime scene like the states. The prime minister has to go and take Drake with you.

I remember when all of Toronto was complaining about all the homeless living in the parks and that was before the refugees so what happened back then because the homeless doesn’t like the homeless shelters is because they don’t want to be told what to do and what time to come and what time to go to bedand a lot of the refugees that apply for the refugee system. Try to hurry up and get off the system and get a job and start working, but these Canadian homeless have been homeless for a long time begging for a long time.

I like it that Brampton is Toronto’s Surrey BC

When I visited Toronto to see a Blue Jays game we stayed for a week in downtown. It was shocking to see so many homeless people with large set ups in the open. Prices for things were crazy high. It was very sad to see

As someone who is studying social work , the amount of policy hoops we have to jump through to be able to help people in need does not help the issue. There are steps and solutions to work on resolving the issue but it's not ministries main concentrations. I mean if you look at Olivia Chow the Mayor of Toronto would rather pay 12.7 million to change a name of a street than address the homeless issue.

I used Toronto Pearson last month and it was smooth. I think people just need to be genuine and get their docs handy. Docs like return flight ticket, hotel reservations, bank statements, etc should be printed. And of course don’t leave any implicating messages on your phone and be confident. Remember that Canada don’t do interviews before the grant or deny visas. You have to do the interview at the point of entry and if you can’t satisfy them with your answers, you’ll be denied entry

First time I voted him, and then I noticed something really off after he won. At the time Toronto became a city with lots of ignorance, brain-washing people who believed he did great. When I tried to express my concern, I got blackmailed and warned and even attracted by certain group of people on the street. Nobody came to help. I was so depressed and left. \n\nI didn't even vote second and third time because I don't see any common sense from all candidates. They all brand themselves great and have been using the same way. \n\nKarma is getting to these ignorance and brain-washed people with higher prices of everything and poorer living condition. They need to stop blaming the outcome.

@2and20 Great video, very well balanced. Have you read Sam Cooper's book on money laundering? It's shocking and one of the main reasons Van and Toronto have such high prices on real estate.

Do what Florida does, no Chinese nationals can buy property in Florida.\n\nLet's be honest that's the root of the problem in Toronto and Vancouver.

Will be in Vancouver this Friday from SO CAL. In general, your city just like any major cities in USA are having the same issues pretty much. It is worst here in Los Angeles, San Francisco I think. \n\nWe were in Toronto for a short time and enjoyed visiting cities outside Toronto as well. \n\nI did not see much homeless or safety concern at all there in Toronto unless. I agree our (corrupted) politicians and corporate control of our governments are major issues.

Really enjoyed your video and appreciate your effort to present information in a balanced manner and to emphasize that it is after all, relative to where you came from. \n\nYou have chosen to live in the largest city in Canada which is also a main business centre. This choice emphasizes large urban centre problems and large urban centre behavioural norms. I anticipate you chose Toronto because of the greater career opportunities available to you and your husband and perhaps you enjoy large urban environments. But most of Canada is not comprised of large urban environments, quite the contrary. \n\nI grew up in the Vancouver area. As a young University graduate I was forced to move about 100 kms away to secure career oriented employment. I moved to a small rural town surrounded by farms. I soon learned to adapt my aggressive city driving to a more relaxed pace and found people surprisingly friendly compared to the urban people I was accustomed to in the city. People smiled and said hello as you passed them on a sidewalk, that did not happen in the city. So in summary, for people who enjoy small town living their experience in Canada would likely be more positive and far less expensive. For an urban dweller, I would not recommend remote areas as some services and entertainment options are just not available. But for those who love the outdoors, there are many beautiful choices in Canada.

Canada has been virtually destroyed by Justin's government.\nYou want to see a real shit hole of a city come to Toronto.\nFull of homeless mental cases drug users in the open filth yiu name it people begging on every corner.\nToronto is the shit hole of Canada and Vancouver the same.\n\nYou can drive 3 or 4 hours away from toronto amd if you don't drive to cities like London or Hamilton or st catherines you can still find nice parts of Ontario but not in any city anymore only In the sticks.\nSo if you don't need a city to make a living you can avoid the shit hole Canada has become.\nI'm embarrassed to be a Canadian

Growing up in Toronto during the mid 70-80-90's and as a child we used to have to take the Subway, to a Street car then a bus alone from Dufferin & Bloor area alone as a 10 &+ yrs old. Without worry , immigrants were primarily Asia's & Jamaicans which were peaceful, respectful. The Indians etc immigration has Increased crime rates, Toronto used to be amazing. But when is enough..... ENOUGH! I'm personally leaving my once beloved country. Immigrants aren't assimilating to OUR ways, yet if going to theirs, we would HAVE TO! Many Canadians are extremely angry as to how our once beautiful country, has Ben DESTROYED

I recorded a video of like 200+ Indians in line for a dishwasher job in Toronto and the level of cognitive dissonance from the average voter in Canada is insane, and I'm not even conservative. The solution was to push the mass immigration button instead of providing young people with an incentive to pursue trades.

There are very few cities that are better than they were 20 years ago. I'm not suggesting there are none I'm saying very few. Basically Toronto in the year 2000 wasn't as nice as it was in 1980 for that matter.

It's bad everywhere, but worse in Canada. Decreased productivity cuts across everything. And Toronto's move to allow multi-plex homes to be built anywhere is a huge step in the right direction. Now for tiny homes...

I grew up in Toronto in the 1980's but have lived in Central Europe since the 90's. Toronto was probably the best place on earth to live at that time. It was big enough, extremely safe and clean, culturally cohesive and yet very cosmopolitan...What the hell happened?

I agree with you 100 percent. I live in Markham; I used to live in Toronto.\n\nIf you can't afford the cost of living in Toronto, stay away.\n\nIf you worry about your personal safety, stay away. The rise in home invasions is very worrying. The rise in subway crime is very worrying.

AS A MUSLIM - Lemmie’ just say, I was justtttt talking to my WHITE BOSS today (I’m a truck driver, here in Toronto ??) about how much I GENUINELY enjoy racism from Texans and Alabamans. LOLLLLL - this guy is KILLLLINGGGG MEEEE. I’m dead !!!!! AhahahahaaaaaA !!!! I’m actually dead! LOL ! Cuz it reminded me of YouTuber, brother Zeeshan’s impersonation of racist English people, from “Smile2Jannah.” This got confrontational. If I was there and he actually laid a finger on these Muslim sisters of mine, in front of me, he’d probably be on the ground, flat. But at the same time, so entertaining to watch his racism. \n\nSince he didn’t touch them, I, as a Muslim would definitely wanna start off by giving this man a hug and doing my best not to let go

Horrible robot voice. Hunting is not a JOB in Nova Scotia. Good bloody grief. And housing prices in Halifax are very high indeed. As a Canadian, understand that you are listening to a great deal of BULL SHIT in this video. And Quebec is in no way ‘European’. It is French-Canadian. Duh. Toronto is completely unaffordable for any average-wage worker. Double that for Vancouver.

Alberta presently is THE best Province 2024 Who did this assessment ? Seasonal work? We are a major oil producer in the world, have awesome Federal and Provincial Parks - Tourist destination Farming is very productive In this vid, Edmonton is under rated and Toronto is over rated IMO \nBC has the best climate and life style

im a huge advocate of diversity but this is just too much ... I live in Toronto and i lost two jobs to massive Indian immigration and probably counting, because they r desperate n willing to work themselves to the bone for pennies ... u cant compete with that\n\nas i got phased out, every single one of my co workers became indian, as i roam the streets, all i see r indians riding around on ebikes doing delivery, even in china town a lot of the general populace appears to be indian\n\nim unable to find a decent job because everything is flooded with applications\n\nvery important to note that however hard it is to accept, we cannot blame the actual immigrants ... the government/authorities r letting them in, they need to have much stricter control\n\nnever in my wildest dreams have i ever needed to even consider leaving canada, but at this rate this is what it is coming down to ... i dont want to live in a third world country in the west tyvm

Why so much hate. This is just a part of suburb of toronto. Is it making you scared???. Canada is still majority white. It has more chinese and blacks than indians there. Don't be hypocrite.

Toronto is screwed beyond hope. \nBorn there in 55 got out for BC in 81\nThe Writing was on the wall then.\nCanada is the next Rhodesia

Why do the white people staying there look low class and lower educated? I think the successful and ambitious whites moved to the states or to bigger cities like Toronto and Vancouver. In a way, the Indians are helping Brampton

Is this Canada or the New India. I was completely shocked when I came to Toronto Canada last Nov. 2023 from United States. I did not encounter any other nationality other than Indians from Asia. Restaurant, malls, markets, hotels, even all tourist destinations etc. IRCC is not doing a good job in picking immigrants into Canada.

Born and raised in toronto, I live in Las Vegas. I am able to achieve the American dream in two years with an average salary( single income) , protect myself and my family with 2nd amendment right. 30yr fixed mortgage rate at 3.0% on a brand new house what Canadians would consider a big home at 2400 sq foot home. Foods cheaper , fuel cheaper, Nike is cheaper lol and most importantly No snow. \n\nIf I carried the same amount of salary to Mississauga I would completely have the total opposite. I repeat, I would LITERALLY have the total opposite. God bless America, god save Canada

is your million dollar Toronto house a million dollar asset to lenders

I couldn’t afford to continue living in my own country, so I simply left and moved to the French Riviera, where I have a sea view apartment for the same price as a soiled mattress inside a Toronto crackhouse. Good riddance Canada!

Question: How do you think working class immigrants afford multi-million dollar homes in places like Vancouver, Toronto, etc? Canadians are so ignorant about our over-generous “pension” system which is actually a welfare system b/c it requires no contributions or true commitment to residency nor a work history. Nor does it force immigrants to report their foreign assets or income unlike actual Canadians whose income and assets are closely monitored by the govt. These families sponsor their extended family members including elderly parents and grandparents while collect “pensions” from the feds and the province. Each elder collects approx $2,000/month from the feds while continuing to live in their home country. Think about it. A couple with 4 sponsored parents receives approx $8,000 per month which is paid out of general tax revenues collected from working Canadians who can’t afford rent let alone a down payment or mortgage. Canadian taxpayers buy million dollar homes for immigrants while they themselves can barely afford food.

I have family in Toronto, and they've told me how difficult it was to evict some Indians who rented units in the buildings they own. They absolutely wrecked their units, turned them into pigsties.

Metro Toronto Too expensive now....

The Toronto accent is already insufferable enough as it is, but hearing it in such a confrontational manner with loads of slurs mixed into it really brings a whole different level of discomfort to my ears and mind

Mane thinks hes a proper toronto mans like hush your mouth and go on with you food.. tf

I spent a day in Toronto. When visited the tallest tower, I noticed that I was the only one who was not Indian.

I don't like indian people, but i showed my respect and that toronto fool should be in jail
