Interviewing a man in the middle of the road asking about bad drivers…

To all those who voted liberal, a giant C.N. Tower sized middle finger to you.

$499.999 for an old war time home is a joke for middle family to buy....

Great start. 64% decrease in foreign students is a huge cut and definitely needed. Middle class tax cut is a step in the right direction and the $10 NSF fee is actually a huge underrated change. I’ll admit I’ve been in the situation where I forgot which day my bill is coming out and didn’t have my bank account prepared accordingly. Getting slapped with $50+ NSF fees just made it even worse. Nice to see a cap on that now as I felt like companies were abusing it.

Middle class saves $420 LOOOOOOOOOOL wow thanks Carney!

Tax cut for middle class that was voided by inflation. Have you seen the price of butter LOL. What a joke approx $44.00 per month. Nothing substantial. Virtual signalling

Long term consequences? We're in the middle of present consequences that have been raging for years now.

What is middle class these days. To live like the middle class did in the 90's you would need a household income of 200+. 400 dollars off 200 grand is nothing

Ya sorry, bye! We need to get back our Christian values and I’d like to go into a store, bank, restaurant and not be the white minority thank you very much! I’d like to understand the person on the other end of the phone once in awhile when I call for help! No more “pro Palestinian “ protests etc etc . Enough is enough. If I wanted to live in the Middle East…I’d go there!

Lol middle class tax. What about corporate and wealth tax?

Great, erase the middle class then give them tax breaks...

Theres a middle class?

What how is it a middle class tax cut. I just did my hire on forms and taxes federal and provincial both went up over 1200 each

Don't forget the payroll deduction increase that negates the "middle class" tax cut

Wow hide cuts for the middle class eh. I can afford one more week of food.

Wow $420 saved for the middle class that will help so much 🙄

$57000 is middle class 🤡😅🤣🤣🤣😀🤡🤡🤡

Hopefully the tax for middle class and lower income family will make grocery prices easier

In what world is 57,000 middle class 😂😂😂 100,000 is the new middle class and just barely

There is no middle class. Trudeau killed that.

$57k is middle class? Are you kidding me?

If the government is saying $57000 is middle to lower class , what the hell is $29000 disabled pay ??. It must be poverty living .

I’m a senior living on $25,000 a year. So if middle class is $55K …. How disgraceful to be a Canadian living in Poverty.

How about we remove one of those "0" on those numbers relating to imigration!!! Middle class tax cut for those making, $57,000 a year or less, middle class really, that's barely above the poverty line in most parts of Canada for a family! No wonder Canada's in trouble, the Liberals have no friggin idea what anything cost anymore what a sad state of affairs!!!!

57,000$/year is "middle class"? That's ridiculous.on top of that, Canada needs a serious social infrastructure boost to put a bandaid on the insane immigration numbers of the last 5 years as well.

I'm sorry, but if an individual is making <$57,000/yr they are NOT middle class; particularly with the current cost of living crisis in Canada. That income level is where middle class begins, so anything less than the $57k/yr is considered lower class. So, again, another indicator that the Canadian government doesn't actually care about the middle class and is fine seeing it dwindle further.

Should be zero immigrants from India and the middle east

57k you cannot afford a house, so middle class is normal now to not be able to afford a house?

Immigration SLASHED! omg what a joke.....55k.....middle class??? Wtf

Middle class is 80 - 100,000

There's no such thing as the middle class. That's destroyed. A little too late for the immigration problem. Election in spring or summer.

SLASHED!!! From 395,000 new wards of the state to 380,000, all paid for by "middle class" taxpayers, who increasingly aren't. Canada is cooked.

It’s sad to say but if ur makin $57000 a year in Canada u are now not close to middle class. $100000 a year is the new middle class, even then - no cottage at the lake for you!

Middle class 56k? Tell me your gaslighting the public they’re not poor to avoid a total government collapse without telling me

57k/year can’t even afford proper rented homes and food let alone being middle class. To be middle class in bc you have to earn at least 110k

When 55k middle class

0:56 $57000 CAD is NOT middle class. Get with the times, seriously! 😢

Discuting! There is family who were in Québec for 2-3 years and learn french, have a job and there children go to school and now are afraid to be deported! It is unfair because they were in a program who said that come to Canada and you will have citizenship if you adapt to our country. We change the rules in middle of the program!!! Those people left everything to come to our country! It's an honor for us that they choose to come here. We need people for specific jobs and send them back??? That is looking like Trump manner!!! We should be angry and ashame of the way liberal treat those people!!! We live in a really crual world! Where are our humanity and empathy??? There is a lot of good people who come here to have a good life and be good citizens. I met an young woman from Ukraine and I said to her: I love Ukraine! She jump in my arms and put her head in my shoulder!!! That is a moment I will never forget...

It would be really nice to see them round up in Surrey BC and Brampton Ontario these communities that are infested with drug dealing and extortion of their middle class families back home. But really FOR fast track Healthcare professionals/doctors into this country. Canada as a country also has to start having more children I do not know how they solve the problem but our population is aging and if we don't want to end up like Japan we have to do something about it. I see a lot of hate here in the comments (The racist and rednecks have permission to be openly racist)but this is a complex issue and don't forget Albert Einstein and Elon Musk were immigrants there is a lot of very talented people that we have to make sure we keep. How many jobs has Elon Musk created? he is not perfect I'm sure in the millions!!!! How much tax has he generated for the country?

I came to Canada legally as refugee in early 90's. At 16, speaking almost no English, I was enrolled in High School and got a job in McDonald's. But even then my clear understanding was that the job was temporary. My managers told me the same thing. I went to university and immediately switched up. It is infuriating to see that fast food jobs are careers for middle aged people, gaming the system and my kids won't have the opportunity to experience the very natural and normal experience of getting into the job market

any deportations higher than zero deportations that have been happening......they give $10,000,000 to a convicted middle eastern murderer Omar Khadr....reward murderers and invite criminals in to freeload off Canadian tax payers.....they pay $50,000 for Canadian citizenship and the owners of the immigration agencies are involved and all drive G-Wagons.....CRA go look there!!!!!

Middle fingers to the government.

EXPORT the IMPORTS from the countries of the middle eastern region's globally: like INDIA , a country that does not meet Canadian human rights and moralities and ethical first world country levels for innocent women and children, like CANDIAN RIGHTS for women and children. INDIA has the highest rapes rates and is the worst country in the world for HUMAN SACRIFICE of brutal rape victims , innocent women and children who are raped and then stoned to death over a thousand a year ...according to the UNITED NATIONS website: India is the worst country in 2024 A.D. for human sacrifices of innocent women rape victims, with well over 1400 reported human sacrifices by stoning. Our country needs to put women's rights into the immigrational policies regarding the standards of civilizations to immigrate from to replace our tax paying families Canadians at our childrens and grandchildren's future jobs, housing and educational seatings...at least replace our families future by immigrating from countries that still don't perform HUMAN SACRIFICES, there's hundreds of countries to immigrate from besides the ones involved in the yearly middle eastern genocide of innocent women and little girls who get murdered by the tens of thousands annually for reporting they have been raped , and then murdered by their closest male family members to to prove their obedience by committing the murders with ROCKS to appease their ancient gods wrath and hatred towards the woman for supposedly enticing the rape....stop condoning the genocide of these women and put our foot down to immigrating from countries like the ones that have the lowest women's and children rights on the planet. This is taking a savagely major step backwards in our advanced modern civilization of Canada, we do not stone innocent women and little girls or boys to death when they complain of being raped, we prosecute the sexual predator, then slap him on the wrist with probation of a hotel jail with room service and free heat and lights and hot showers and a new identity when released after a few months, so they can continue to rape and molest children for the rest of their lives, making hundreds of victims by the day they die...that's the cowardly Canadian way...this is why the country with the highest rape and child molestation rates globally and human sacrifices of these victims is moving here and our cowardly sellout government allows it, we are COWARDS that don't stand up for our women's rights, cowardly men that allow rapist to run around free raping our women and children until the day they die and filming their heinous crimes to sell on the internet, being Canadian is being a COWARD these days. CANADA had immigrational standards based on reflecting our societies ethical stances of common moralities with a stern respectable justice system that protected women's and childrens rights , in 1892 A.D. in NOVA SCOTA we executed men caught red-handed raping innocent women and children or put them in a profitable work prison until the day they DIED, we had a backbone and weren't spinless jelly fish.

They can fingerprint my middle finger.

I have an issue to pick with the framing of policy change as “changing the rule in the middle of the match” because “the match” has a clear time stamp for beginning and end. So when would it be appropriate for the government to make changes? A soccer game last for about 90 minutes, how long should an immigration pathway last?

Some have abused our good will. Liberals have made it better for corporations to hire immigrants as they only have to pay a portion and liberals forcing taxpayers to pay the rest for the cost up to 17-20$ an hr!!!! We have to bring like before people who contribute to society and can stand on two feet but we have too many munchers and now under liberals 14 years of power we have the rich who avoid taxes the poor who can’t afford taxes and the nee middle class who pays all the taxes to pay for the rest. Welcome to Canada under liberals alone.

Canadians im coming there too, i am a British Sikh man. But i have no intentions on living in Brampton or any other densely populated city with Indians and Muslims. Canada is going to soon get a large influx of British Indian's, because the Muslim's are taking over the government. I plan to get out before we are prevented from leaving. BC, middle of knowhere 😍

"they cant behave!" meanwhile the white dude here just walks around shirtless in the middle of the day. Oh wait that's your right, right? Imagine if an indian person did that.

This is happening at varying scales in many cities all over the US as well. Growing up in the 90s and 00s in suburban Minneapolis, we had a very small population of Indians. About ten years ago, they built a large all new subdivision near my hometown that is now 90% Indian. Target Corporate is to blame for the initial push, as they opened an office in India and then had many of them relocating to the Minneapolis office. A recent trip to Dallas, every Uber I took was an Indian or Middle eastern driver. California, especially the Bay Area has an enormous Indian community as well.

That's what india do they monopolize the country to be Indian also the employment they monopolize all the job from janitor to managerial position that's what ived seen and experience also in middle east. They monopololized if the Indian become manager on the job the try to kick your ass out of your job to replaced Indian national
