We’re one of the only countries where people feel bold enough to try this shit. Makes you wonder what they’re being told back home. “The Americans are so soft, you can practically just walk in and get benefits”

Oh wow I thought this was some kind of music festival or sports game cuz I saw a Raiders jacket lmaooooo they acting way too wild. Why they repping for one MY TEAM two an American team like you ain’t even American. Why other countries do that wear each others clothing. It’s weird. We don’t play over there never have never will. I notice people will use Raiders especially as a gimmick and I don’t like that. I have that shit tatted on me and named my daughter Oakland and my other daughter middle name California so I’m true to this. The real deal. ANYHOW they arguing yelling with them and digging into the barbed wire they’re going to get hurt. It’s bloody. Who’s going to stitch them up??

We had a President that was against this, that wanted a wall. Now, we’re giving free housing, food, phones, healthcare, paid job training and even higher education, and the list goes on! I’m not sharing my opinion on social; however, I am stating a fact. I’m not going to comment on what I think would happen if just one or two families left this group and went down the road a few miles and found another way in. I’m not saying that’s right, but say it’s what happened… they’d get the above. I also see many comments here saying these people should fight for their country and try to make it right… well, I don’t see Americans standing up to our government and doing what is right. Look at what is happening to our own country right now! We are about to have no religious freedoms, and no democracy anymore, all because we aren’t using our own voice. One world government and one world religion. That’s what we’re headed for. Oh, and a cashless society, all while we are being monitored the entire time. I hope this is what you want. Personally, I won’t be here. Maranatha! ?️???

Our founding fathers would be so ashamed. America has gone to sh&@.\n\nWhere’s are leaders when this is occurring president Joe Biden is the worse. This has been going on for far to long. \n\n\nThey come over here steal all of Americans jobs, all of the government funded resources, they have more children then any other race in America to get government assistance. Every business you call you have to press one for English.

Now Americans are like stay out but trump was trying to keep them out and everyone called him racist for it… no one calling racist toward the Democratic Party for saying not to come in.. how the sides turn

to one degree or another any ppl that die from this is the fault of american politicians that knew this was going to happen and intentionally did nothing or virtually nothing to protect their image/ political career

We need to step it up. Unmanned drones, land mines. American border security should be synonymous to fot knox. To my knowledge not many people have died trying to get in there illegally, because no one is stupid enough to try

If you don't say that we should bring everyone of those people in here and put them in a hotel and pay for thier food and shelter your a freaking racist. I swear I mean take the shirt off your back america I mean off the backs of the homeless vets. I mean what the hell did they ever do for this country. I mean these people are willing to jump through barbed wire to get free well everything what did anyone here do to deserve anything here. ? I mean they are going to pay so many taxes I'm sure it will probably balance the budget and America won't default and continue to fall into a recession. I mean what we need is hundreds if not hundreds of thousands of undocumented people here eating our taxpayers dollars. Cmon isn't that the American way. Work hard all your life to give it away to some illegal who came here. Nothing makes me more proud than watching the govt take all my shit and give it to people who are really worthy of it. Who come from countries where thier govt makes it almost impossible to live so I would happily give all my material possession away to help like 9 or 10 Mexicans. Granted my house burnt down last week but the shirt on my back it's all yours I don't even need it in most states and local convience stores below the state of Virginia. What we need in this country is voters too. I mean all the people who died of covid who's going to fill the voter polls if the democrats don't give these refugees a free life. I'm certainly not going to sit around and let the govt tell us that we need a wall to stop anyone from going anywhere. I mean walls. They are just going to hop and a boat and come right over. Granted you may have to go through customs but that's what I'm saying you need to be able to go and do what ever you want in any country at anytime. Who's to tell me where I can and can't roam on planet earth and what govt agencies will or will not provide me with care for my unborn child. We need a revolution and it start with walls. I'm going to start with my bedroom wall. And work my way up the ladder. I say no to all walls. Even the ones in swimming pools. I say if your a red blooded patriotic American you need to start planning a trip to the border to tear down that exist racist wall that is keeping those south Americans, Chinese, Russian, and Romanian refugees from coming here with ease. The cartel may not be happy with this but we need to make sure that every person from any country no matter what the situation can freely cross any border at any time. It only makes sense.

The last few mass shootings have all been immigrants .. They got here being promised they would not have to work and the us taxpayers will cover their bills.\n\nWell after they are bussed to a state , not of their choosing and dumped they realize it was all a lie . \nNot only is no one helping them but they can't find work or housing bc there is a huge shortage here ..\n\nSo they find themselves much worse off in America then they had it in their own country . When the immigrant finally realized all of this and snaps he takes it out on innocent people ... \n\nIt's not surprising .. They flee trying to get to America bc their told everything will be given to them . They get here and find it's a total lie and hit rock bottom . They would rather kill many, many American citizens as a way to push back and be happy to do it because at least in jail they will have a roof over their head and three meals a day.

This is gods earth, not white, Hispanic or black. It revolves around money and that’s why people are mad. ALL THE AMERICAN PEOPLE NEED TO GO TO FLORIDA AND STOP BEGGING IN THE STREET. Exactly no one wants those jobs. ??‍♂️

It’s just heartbreaking no on wins. I by the grace of God or just the luck of the drawl am so blessed to be here. Everyone should be thankful for being her and show compassion God says these are your brothers and your sisters. I will always blame are government because they have all used for 20 years as fear. They should all of them be locked in a room until they come up with a common sense speedy way to process them legally. No break no one goes home or leaves the senate the get a bill and stop blaming every the other party. Once again you elected officials should be fired and replaced. Just like every American answers to a boss. We are your boss and citizens to make there vote count we elected you in and we have the power to vote you lazy ass attention seeking money grabbing crocks out. Please everyone make your heard. We must have term limits for all!

I still believe the United States in Canada should become one country cleansed of the sins of both and form the North American republic.. a country that will be even more powerful then ever before.

As a native and citizen of America I do agree our government is all over the place. One minute they’re talking about human rights and the next appointing democracy around the world. We do have our issue’s as a nation. For example, poverty, racism, and other human rights violations that have occurred. I say all that to say this, I love my country, it’s people, the many cultures, and importantly our military. Foreigners talk so much smack about Americans, but when s*** hit the fan who they call and run to? USA… We may be separated and divided in some instances, however, we are the S*** and WILL F*** up SOME S***!!!❤ Ijs

It was all planned by The UN and The WEF. NOTHING organic about it. I heard about a UN leaked report planning on 100 million migrants into the US. All part if a one govt Canada, US, Mexico unified North American zone.

So sad ppl just want to live in peace, one day Americans will be in their shoes.

Very structured thoughts about the situation and local problems, living in ?? and then in Europe, now residing in Toronto, we definitely decided to move back to Europe, all you said so much resonate with our thoughts. It is really sad a lot of Canadians and Americans will never realize how different life can be, how better you can be treated, how beautiful other cities are, and so on. Thanks for the video, it is deep.\nBarcelona - one love ❤️

As a Mexican American remember these are not Mexicans lol they're from Venezuela they're not one of us ?

Omg americans do not work garder than cansdians ???? this is the dumbest shit I have ever seen - go work with a canadian company as opposed to a US one. Also polite - did you see the truckers?

The dollar is shit and it's annoying.. Especially to send money back home to D.R. .one American dollar is 54 pesos...1 canadian is 39 atm..its trash man. If it wasn't for my son and wife.. Id be making my plans to move to Jersey or naples. .uhg

The US-Canada wage gap hits hard. Americans are becoming meaningfully wealthier than us on a per capita basis, all while their housing prices are significantly lower. We're not that far away from the average American making 50% more than the average Canadian. We're getting poorer and it's like no one is talking about it.

American companies also invest in wealth extraction from older Canadians with these horrid & putrid multi-story rental units in formerly single-family home neighborhoods. Each one of these 15 floor buildings stick out like a tumor among the houses and are just there to suck Canadian pensions into American pockets.

Every Country thanks to Biden now thinks they can just show up at our border and be welcome right in illegally while the ones that apply legally get tossed aside and Homeless Americans disregarded so that illegals get their housing covered. It’s a disgrace and embarrassment to our Country.

Turn every one of them around and send them back to their government so they can take care if them\nThis is unreal and unwanted. Why do these people think they're entitled. That Americans owe them sonething: WE OWE YOU NOTHING!\n\nWHY don't YOU demand from your government what you demand of US???\n\nSEND EVERYONE OF THEM BACK HOME, you DONT push yourselves off on us. This border is CLOSED

One of the things that I don't get is why Canadian businesses hardly made any effort to explore other markets other than the Canadian & US market. Canada is located in the middle between Asia & Europe and they also are located pretty close to Latin American countries. Yet very few Canadian companies are willing to expand beyond the US market. I feel like Canadian companies are too complacent and like the video said risk averse. Having said that, I don't think being risk averse is such a bad thing. At least the local banks can withstand crises better compared to a high risk business environment like the US. There are always pros and cons in every environment to me.

As a citizen, I am very tired, and seeing those central Americans, South Americans, Haitians, Cubans, Europeans, Asians, and Middle Easterns come to Mexico to USA. There is no way to get in the US/Canada because you need to have legitimate valid papers. Especially to Central Americans and Venezuelans, they need to follow the laws. My parents came to the USA more than 50 years ago, and with proper documents. And for people who believe and blame Mexicans for taking their jobs. Don't! I know some do not have the legal papers, BUT blame the ones who don't follow the laws!!!!

I get where you're coming from, no one is more patriotic than myself but bro this is the land of hope. My grandfather who raised me is an immigrant who left a life of no hope and growth to come here. He was deported 12 times but each time fought to come back. Now he is a father of 4 grandfather of 7 American citizens. He is the pride of our family for how much of an outstanding person he is. But all this would not have come to fruition if it wasn't for the opportunities that this country provided. I understand our country is struggling but it's not struggling to a point where we have to turn our backs on these people and pretend like we can't help them when help isn't even what they want. They just want somewhere safe to raise their children.

they get over here and take all our jobs and be more racist then the white man and we built the world . love AMERICAN CUZ MEXICANS WILL ACT LIKE THEY BETTER THEN WE AS 2 AND THEY THINK THERE ONLY ONE

It's too many people coming into the United States. Highly overcrowded. The US needs to start taking care of their own citizens first. There's homeless Americans right here that are citizens, there are hungry people right here in the US that are American citizens. They need to start helping their own first. These Americans should not be without anything. And then United States is quick to help other states before they help they own. It's really a shame. And half the people that come here from other countries don't even like Americans. There shouldn't be not one homeless American citizen in America. The country has billions and billions of dollars and they should be able to house their own citizens.

Did y’all seriously just ask “why are we seeing this right now?” Really y’all are going to ask that as if this hasn’t been going on the entire time Biden has been in office. What a joke. This has been going on the whole time y’all just ignored it and wanted to act like there isn’t a major unprecedented border crisis going on right now and pretend we don’t have millions pouring into our country from all over the world and we don’t even know who’s coming over but we know cartel and terrorists are definitely taking advantage of this we’ve caught many think about all the ones we didn’t catch. I’m actually shocked to see that y’all are reporting anything about the border crisis. Now if we could just get y’all to actually report just how bad it really is it’s so much worse than what you see in this video. The only time y’all showed footage from towns near the border was when the Biden administration had them clear the whole area of migrants and cleaned the streets so y’all could tell Americans that the crisis republicans say is happening at the border isn’t at all like what they are saying it is which is such a joke. My family has a ranch near the border and it’s been in my family since before Texas was Texas and what is happening today on our border is something we’ve never in all of history seen before and it’s never been more dangerous than it is now.

I'm first a mom,wife,grandmother and a lover of the human race.\nWe Americans have got to get some kind of immigration reform asap. The Democrat's control everything why didn't they get some kind of bill on the table. Other countries have immigration laws, I do agree we need to first take care of the ones who's been here for 20 years and 10 years the one's with good working efforts and no criminal record pay there taxes every year and get no help from the GOVERNMENT like foodstamps,wic,public housing and free medical insurance. This should be the standard for all Americans. Maybe we should close our borders for everyone for the next ten years until we take care of the ones that are here now. Other countries please take care of your own citizens do better and maybe some day the tables will change around. We Americans will be trying to come to you're country. Americans we can do this if we put the right people in the WHITE HOUSE. PS CONGRESS SHOULD HAVE TERM LIMITS IN THE WHITE HOUSE. WE CAN'T KEEP BEATING THE SAME DEAD HORSE.

We need to.stop. birthright citizenship! That is a big draw for young women to.come here and give birth to an American citizen. Citizenship should only be given to babies who have one biological parent!

Reality. Really. Maga right. Let's see unemployment numbers down nation wide since Trump took office. Foreclosures another all time low. Employment is up. Programs that Trump and his republican mates took away to help now not only back in firm place but helping Americans who weren't wealthy and paying for it are now successfully employed, own their homes and contribute fairly with appropriate taxes. People can't find housing??? Programs are out there for those who had foreclosure on them because of Trump's unyielding to constantly tax those not making six digits. Also our country lost over one million innocent men,women, children and infants because Trump REFUSED to acknowledge COVID. Care to speculate how many of them were republicans thinking how could I of believed him??? One father stated after burying his wife who died from it said this. We believed him then my wife of fifty years contracted it and died quickly and our kids who like us who believed him were told had this been taken seriously in the beginning it would of never become this severe. They became democrats.

It's unconscionable that we've invited people to come to Canada without actually following through on the promise we made to them in the first place. Was it all just sloganeering designed to appeal to liberal progressive NIMBYers? Was there ever any intent on actually doing something for these poor people beyond a sound bite or photo op? \n\nThe solution to migration because of war, terror, famine and so on is not by opening up the borders and allowing everyone in, the solution to mass migrations (over 100 million worldwide) is to tackle the conditions that make such migrations necessary. Almost without exception, each one of these migrant/refugee situations are the result of political problems that have to be tackled in those countries where the conditions exist. There are over 100 million people fleeing conditions that make life unbearable, even if we wanted to, how are we to take them all into North America? How does anyone propose we do that, and even if we could manage it somehow, another 100 million would show up on our doorstep next year...or next week...it's simply not possible or reasonable to expect us to be overwhelmed by wave after wave of the poor unfortunate. The solutions to war and famine abroad can't be found here and we need to make it plain that people who live in such conditions must first rise up to help themselves. We can and should help, politically, through foreign aid and individual donations (North Americans are among the most generous donators after all), and even militarily where feasible or possible. The UN and other coalitions of nations, must each take up the burdens before people smugglers take it up for them. We have our own problems to deal with here and I'm not willing to vote for promises made that were never meant to be kept.

The ones trying to get in will get all the housing and jobs and be taken care of better then actual Americans

They just keep disrespecting USA and our wonderful president and VP is encouraging it by doing nothing. How about if all these young males want to enter our country and join one of our armed services for four years and then get their citizenship when they are done with their four years? Learn a skill and become an American. It’s a win-win

I would I wouldn’t move to either one of those places they’re just not worth it not to me I’m an American born and raised in the USA America isn’t all that either but it’s a land of milk and honey and that’s why a lot of people want to come and I’m trying to get in America gives you a lot of free things that other countries will never ever give you so people better pray and see where God wants you first

Well what happened was like three hundred plus years ago there was an invasion into this country from European Invaders and the natives who are indigenous to this land tried to fight vigorously to keep this land but unfortunately with modern technology being on the foreign Invaders side they wanted this land America and after the British claim victory they took this land over plundered it and now the Mexicans and Native Americans want their land back. If you repeat a lie over a long period of time that lie will become one's reality!

The homeless are drugged out burn outs you wouldn’t give them a damn dollar if they asked you for one ? these people will work the lowest jobs with the worst pay that so many homeless Americans would never accept, the homeless would rather beg for money cause they’re too busy shooting up drugs ?yall act like y’all give a damn about homeless yall just don’t like immigrants and use homeless as a reason to not let them in, when was last time you gave a homeless a dollar? And when was last time you PAID a landscaper to fix your lawn? How much does a dollar cost? ?

Where’s the US Military? Now is the time to use them to get control of this situation on our homeland!!!! I don’t care myself I’m so tired of our country being overrun and taken advantage of by illegal foreigners just bullying their way into this country!!!! You wouldn’t do this crap in Russia or China get this sh** in order US Government!!!!! Send these people back home!!!! Anyone caught trafficking is facing harsher punishment!!!! Don’t care if child was born here to illegal parents to me you’re still illegal!!! GET THE HELL OUT!!! Most of you when you get here you don’t accept the American way of life anyway, so stay in your own countries!!! This one is falling apart at the seams as it is!!!

So sad , millions and millions of people are suffering. And no one cares. And then we as Americans let idiots lead us and run our country like Biden and trump and all the other corrupt treasonous politicians. It’s time the free people of the world take a stand and take back what is ours.

The American government, butts their noses in other countries affairs, such as Ukraine, Iraq, Germany etc throughout the past 100 anõs I think that’s how you spell years in Spanish lol. Yet we do not step in and figure out why our South American countries have it so bad that they fight tooth and nail to come to North America for a better life. In conclusion, how about we go to the south American countries stop all the horrible things that are going on in those South American countries so that way they can have a better life where they are. Maybe then they won’t want to come here illegally in droves no matter what the cost. Because no one is doing anything for them. Forget about Ukraine, let’s band together and help our brown brothers and sisters south of the border.

The u s of a despises Americans. \nYou are being deleted one move at a time.

It's sad it's easier to escape your own country to a better one with shitty borders. Us Americans aren't able to appreciate how good we actually have it. Else the borders would be better controlled.

NO MORE IMMIGRANTS WE NEED OUR GOVERNMENT TO SEND EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM ON THE FIRST THING FLYING OR BOATING OUT OF THIS COUNTRY WE ARE OVER IT ‼️ IF THEY WANT A BETTER LIFE THEN THEY NEED TO MAKE THEIR OWN COUNTRY BETTER DON’T COME HERE AND RUIN OUR COUNTRY THE WAY THEY DID THERE’S WE AS THE AMERICAN PEOPLE NEED TO STAND UP AGAINST THIS OR IT WILL NOT STOP‼️ THEY ARE NOT WANTED HERE‼️ THE PRESIDENT NEEDS TO MAKE IT LOUD AND CLEAR TO THEM‼️ BUT HE WON’T BECAUSE HE’S THE ONE WHO CAUSED THIS CHAOS IN THE FIRST PLACE ‼️

Yall sound stupid asl saying thry should do that in their own country. Venezuela is fucked up because of US intervention. And the same could be said of Americans, we have been losing all our rights at record rates but no one in the US is uniting to fix it. Stop being judgmental clowns because you were lucky enough to be born within US border. Straight fucking idiots but what can u expect from Americans truly ignorant people

It is crazy to me. YouTubers on this platform have enough sense. \n\nAfter a few documentaries on colonialism, the erasure of indigenous , American corporate interference and the history of white supremacy on the land. You would be able to somewhat gather why people are coming to “America”. \n\nWhy is it that Ukraine ?? got amnesty FOR BUYING NUCLEAR WEAPONS, attempted migration THROUGH MEXICO ASWELL. Yet, no one was complaining about them. Indigenous people come over and they are criminalized and vilified with this surge of sheer surprise. \n\nVery spectacular.

The one that went to go to another country they need to do it to write way.. I'm American my wife is fun to Philippines. We filled out all the paperwork and my wife Took the citizen test and she passed. That's the way you should post to do it. Not this walk a Cross . We need fences in the United States to stop all that. Not just because of the Ones have trying to cheat and get here also the terrace..

I am Haitian American. Trust me, if Haiti was one of the best countries in the world. I would be very angry if a government just open its borders to let every unauthorized person in. I believe in law and order. So I don't look at white Americans as racists or anti immigrants if they stand against this. What's happening is very bad.

we can’t even find a home to buy that actually fits our family and our needs for less than 300k right now. and we make damn good money. and it’s still feelin hopeless and impossible. what the fuck. also idk how bad it is where they’re coming from but here is NOT the shining star it once was. this is one of the worst times in my lifetime to want to move to america and live the american dream. in my opinion. it’s aaaallll out of sorts right now. i wouldn’t even know where to start and it would take me days to list off the reasons.

This is what you get when you have a president that’s for sale to the highest bidder. They report that the Mexican cartels control the border. That no one crosses the border without paying the cartels. Does anyone believe that the Biden Crime Family knowing how much the cartels are making allows the border to stay open for free? The democrats and every single person that voted and supports them are responsible for every crime committed against the illegals . If the people can’t pay the women and children are forced into a life of prostitution. How horrible is it that over half of Americans are allowing this to happen? Shame on democrat supporters. Y’all better hope there isn’t a everafter and a god judging us for our sins. Supporting a administration that has a partnership with Mexican cartels makes you just as guilty
