You meant to say CRIMINAL illegal immigrants, eh?

Ah yes... *The American Dream is meant for other countries*\n\nThis guy is a Joke.

Oops I meant columbia

This is what the Dems don't understand about tariffs -- they are a negotiating tool, Trump is using tariffs as a leverage. They're not meant to be permanent. They don't even have to go into effect at all. Just the threat of tariffs is often enough. Colombia can't survive without the US as a major trading partner. Tariffs would kill them. So, they quickly changed their tune. Which is why the Colombian President 'Gustavo Petro' has already folded to Trump and has reversed his decision to allow 2 military transport planes to land there after being threaten with tariffs, serious sanctions etc. Like him or not, Trump understands how to negotiate.

If you get deported as an illegal immigrant, you should be able to take your children with you. What about us who came here legally and we paid to get our citizenship and went through so much processing to get here legally while others can just cross the borders illegally and get citizenship somehow. They were not screened if they have criminal records and they didn't go through a health inspection like we did. The law is law and it should always be implemented, no exceptions. I have met someone who was not a U.S. citizen but she gave birth on an airplane above the U.S. territory and her son became an automatic U.S. Citizen. I thought that was weird. The children should maintain the same citizenship as their parents so they will not be separated. Birthright citizenship has divided and dislocated families. This law meant that the U.S. government will take the baby away from the parents because they have no citizenship and put their children in the Foster Care Home Systems? That doesn't even make sense to separate a family, this law is a home wrecker. It needs to be abolished ASAP.

All those clips showing children are from years ago and are meant to mislead you.

If white people are so evil and racist, why do you insist on coming to live in our homes?\nindian immigration has destroyed this country, it will never be fixed. These ‘people’ behave like utter animals, destroying nature, poisoning the water, using beaches as bathrooms. They are extremely nepotistic and will only hire other indians and family, it’s next to impossible for young native born Canadians to get even basic level entry jobs if the person hiring is indian. \nindians have abused the goodwill of our citizens and our social assistance programs. For the first time in nearly a hundred years our local food banks had to shutter and turn people away because INDIANS were using it as a free grocery store when they had FULL TIME JOBS and brand new bmws, then they post videos on social media saying ‘how to get free food in canada’, while some poor emaciated bastard gets turned away. What makes it worse, a lot of these Indians, especially in the prairies, already have their groceries subsidized by federal government, and they STILL abuse the food bank. It’s not just food bank either, they all apply for welfare and immediately get assistance even though it takes months to get as a natural born citizen, and that’s even if you get it. I was shocked to find out the federal government was paying indians to move out of Ontario and BC into Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba because the coastal cities infrastructure was about to implode in certain areas. So they they told these people to move inland, and if they do and stay there for 18-24 months, they get $3300 dollars a month every month for that duration. My disability cheque, that I paid into for 40 years of hard work, comes out to 950 dollars a month. This is absurd. These people get literally everything handed to them, and STILL abuse the programs meant for those who are struggling. I have never in my life met such an arrogant and utterly dishonest and disgusting group of peoples in my life. This isn’t just one or two bad apples, this is happening in every city around here. They also get first dibs on any and all medical treatment and specialists. Many local residents who have already been on waiting lists for years to get treatment are getting bumped in order to accommodate the new invaders. It’s basically impossible to find a doctors or dentists office accepting new patients. ER rooms are full constantly of these people coming just for runny noses and coughs, clogging up the already strained healthcare system. The prairies hospitals (at least where I live) were barely holding together before this nonsense. Yet somehow, this is all just white people being racist huh? \nWell I’ll tell you what, I’m not white, my people were on this land long before anyone else can claim to be, and while I’ll admit there’s often still a lot of animosity between natives and whites, youd be quite surprised to see how many of us are in agreement towards the current behaviour of these people.

«  Sometime it means, you have to book ticket home «  that is exactly what the government meant from that

What will Canada do, you ask? For starters, it can clear the truckload of foreign workers taking sub-par wages at job sites for my son's 3rd-year electrician apprenticeship - a job he hasn't found any work in for about 4 months now in the GTA. Yes, these workers and the companies that employ them have been illegally using the system meant for workers that cannot be found locally to hire for lower wages than Canadians. Some of them are fully qualified electricians willing to work for $22/hour - just $4.80 above minimum wage - you cannot survive on that in the GTA. So, not only do these workers steal jobs, they drive down wages. The companies need to be fined for misuse of this code.

Its because of how most of the indians who visit to western countries (in fact even thailand) behaves. Stealing hotel toiletries, towels arrogant. I heard one tourist yelling at a restaurant in lake district UK as he is a <<caste name>> and won't bow down. Poor intern student english guy didn't get what he meant. Reputation is very bad for most of the countries to be honest.

I meant to write a comment but then I read all the comments and realized they all have said it more eloquently then I can . I think she has her answer

I think that your response below was meant for someone else - I never left a comment on this topic.

?️ Oga AREOLA in POLO and FACE CAP, please choose ur WORDS carefully next time, don't say you need some VIOLENCE in CANADA, though we we knw wat u meant but d CANADIANS and it's SECURITY AGENCIES will interpret u WRONGLY and perceive you as trying to INSTIGATE VIOLENCE in d SOCIETY they're WORKING HARD everyday to keep PEACEFULL??‍♀️

Food banks are taking on many students from India. This is wrong and not what it was meant for.

When he said it’s time for change, we didn’t realize he meant hyper-immigration, hyper-inflation, and woke agendas imposed on our children

I dont think this is what was meant by, ‘the meek shall inherit the earth.’\n…\nUnless the meek are also really, really dumb. Then, I guess it is.

It was never meant for them. It was meant for Black Americans, not illegal immigrants who found a loop hole to get their anchor babies citizenship.

concerning times. thanks , some things were never meant as funny.

They shouldn't have allowed subhumans to enter Canada, we POC are not meant to dwell among Humans, that is the core issue here.

Of course, they should each be afforded urgent self-determination about their location- always- as they have not been for a very long time. .... but this is a good message to hear to balance out the rest. They should both be allowed to leave & allowed to safely stay. .. I don't know whether this gentleman meant this as an excuse or not, but ...

The misinterpretation of laws are in direct conflict with early emigration laws in America particularly ‘The Emigration’ Act of 1866 and also naturalization act of 1790 if people keep going back in time using past laws to justify this the more it confuses things. All I know is the intent of the laws need to be accurately interpreted so that it’s clear who they were meant for when they were written because from the way I read and interpret them there is nothing that directly allows for the offspring of illegal and undocumented parents to be granted automatic citizenship. Especially since this is happening while our country actually has immigration laws and a process for them to follow. Some where where in our ‘politics’ this has gotten all screwed up and definitely needs to be fixed.

The only reason birthright citizenship was enacted was to deal with the issue of newly freed black slaves after the civil war, because technically they were not citizens before the civil war. It was an attempt to create a legal mechanism for these freed slaves to be made into US citizens, it was never meant to be used to be used as a loophole circumvent our immigration laws.

Student Visa never meant PR all 5 million Indians that are getting deported in 2025 should sue immigration lawyers in India who tricked them

The storm is coming said the Q’anon cult…but they meant Stormy as in Stormy Daniel’s

At first I thought you meant '' feathers'' but no you're talking about '' dots''. I mean there is a difference between '' call center Indians'' and '' casino Indians''. If don't understand what I am saying you are not an American.

Twisting realities here.Borders are meant to be respected, if a nation is not capable of controlling its own population because of corruption and drug dealers being in control, there is no way we can reason with them until they show they are capable of implementing their own laws

I think what she meant to say was Mexico has helped the Biden administration with a record numbers of illegal aliens into the USA

Yeah this reminds me of how my family and the people i know fucked me out of my entire life but had the best intentions and meant well so its okay

These people across the United States border with a fair. Do you actually think they're going to fear Justin Trudeau's and The RCMP baggage boys? It's all scripted folks and these people were meant to end up in Canada

To confused Europeans out there, understand our two party system in a nutshell gave voters “a choice”, as in THE choice: Deport all or none of them\n\n[The following paragraph is relevant to the theme of black and white politics, it is not meant to be a backhand jab at Europe]\n\nIt’s like with NATO: Continue the same 1946esc policy of bankrolling [mind you nothing to Marshal Plan era scale anymore] it or leave altogether\nNo option to just half military budget

How exactly do you expect me to fit in? I've spoken English and lived here since the age of 2. I celebrate Halloween and Christmas but not Pride Month, and I don’t eat Canadian food regularly. If fitting in means doing all those things, then I have questions. I thought living here meant I could eat whatever I want and celebrate the festivals I like, such as Eid or Diwali, without anyone interfering. As long as I’m not causing trouble—which I never do—why should anyone dictate how I live?\n\nBeing '100% Canadian' is impossible for me because I prefer staying true to myself. This has been my country for a long time, so telling me to 'go back' makes no sense.\n\nAlso, let’s not forget how Canada’s history involves forcing European traditions onto Indigenous people. In the end, aren’t we all dealing with the same issues? For example, I’m not coming here telling anyone to convert to my culture, eat my food, or join my festivals. I respect others’ choices, and I expect the same respect in return.\n\nAnd by the way, if anyone feels 'forced' by certain communities, like Khalistanis, maybe that’s something to take up with your government—they brought those people here, not us. those are the the one in no fly list that your gov decided to take in and give them citizenship and causing trouble and being violent

Canada is meant for hunters only. I give it 50 year tops, and it will be deserted. It should go back to the natives.\n\nOnce America falls, Canada is done. Then Mexico will be the Eldorado.\n\nThe mighty BRICS is going to crumble the West, including the Canadian wasteland . \n\nSorry, nothing goes on forever.

Canada is often perceived as a land of opportunity and comfort, but my personal experience told a different story. After living there for over a decade, I made the difficult decision to leave for several reasons, each of which compounded my struggles and ultimately led me to seek a better quality of life elsewhere.\n\nThe Incident That Sparked the Change\nIn 2017, I was attacked in Toronto, leaving me with a broken nose. It was a traumatic experience, but the frustration didn't end there. When I reached out to my doctor to fix the injury, I was placed on a waitlist. For years, I followed up, hoping for progress, but by 2023, I still hadn’t received a call for the surgery. Each time, I was told the same thing: a shortage of doctors meant they couldn’t help. This highlighted a stark reality of the Canadian healthcare system—while it is publicly funded, it is often overwhelmed, leaving people waiting for years for essential treatments.\n\nThe Harsh Reality of Living Costs\nLiving in Canada became increasingly unsustainable for my family and me. Despite working hard and earning less than $100,000 annually, the cost of living pushed us into a debt of over $70,000. The financial strain was immense, forcing us to sell our home just to clear the loan. Even with this sacrifice, our lifestyle remained stagnant. We hadn’t taken a vacation in ten years because there was simply no room in the budget. Owning a home or enjoying basic luxuries felt like an unattainable dream, and I realized that continuing in this cycle was not a viable option.\n\nChallenging Weather Conditions\nCanada’s harsh weather was another factor that wore us down over time. The long, freezing winters and short, unpredictable summers made it difficult to enjoy outdoor life or maintain a consistent routine. The mental toll of enduring such extreme weather year after year contributed to the decision to seek a more temperate and enjoyable environment.\n\nA Need for Change\nAfter ten years of struggle, it became clear that the current conditions in Canada were not conducive to a fulfilling life. The combination of healthcare delays, skyrocketing living costs, financial stress, and unforgiving weather made me question the sacrifices I was making. Life is short, and the realization that there are other places in the world with better systems and opportunities prompted me to take action.\n\nWhile Canada has its merits, it’s important for people to reassess their priorities and make decisions that align with their well-being. For me, leaving was a step toward reclaiming my life and creating a future where I could thrive, rather than just survive.

Project 2025 will deport her even if she has US citizenship ?? she has no idea what Steven Miller meant America' is for Americans only ? white nationalist ? ay que pendjeda she was used for her vote ? now she will be deported and now her family will laugh at her in old mexico

Cant wait. They should have never been allowed in to collect benefits not meant for their use

This is one dumb Mexican ... Trump don't give two shits about her legal or otherwise. His America includes only those that looks like him....period! She said take out country back...boo boo that slogan wasn't meant for YOU...

Pretty soon folks might discover they are the dog that caught the car… WTF! Oh, that is what it meant …. I don’t like this at all

Illegal is what you meant

That Cuban woman describes a lot of minorities believe it or not. And it explains very well how even some slaves would cut deals with a plantation owner to snitch on plans to runaway etc. not because it meant they’d be free but simply cuz they’d maybe get to work in the house and not the field. \n\nA lot of people are very selfishly driven. And a lot of minorities have this crab in a barrel mentality, they will fight for scraps at the feet of white men who only want power for white, RICH men. Even poor whites think they’re gonna get in good with Trump, but Trump is a billionaire aligned with other billionaires like Musk and Murdoch and guess what, they have nothing in common with any common folk, black, white, Asian or Latino. Yet here we all are fighting like crabs in a barrel. Real dumb.

When she started with 'we need to take our country' back, I began to think she meant Mexican-Americans need to take back their country that was originally part of Mexico but was taken from them by the United States. eg Texas and other border states. Isn't that what the immigration north is all about? Taking back country? Of course the people who should really have the right to take back their country are the Indian Nations. They would be justified in deporting any families whose ancestors were illegal immigrants and did not get the equivalent of a green card from the original owners. I find it fascinating that descendants of illegal immigrants are so antagonistic to more recent illegal immigrants. 'We were illegal first! So we have the right to stop you illegals now!' ?

Remember 20 years ago, businesses and wealthy, looked the other way because immigrants meant cheap labor without benefits, yet they still paid into social security and other taxes.

When you said it was goin down 20% I thought that meant 20% of immigrants would be going back.

They meant “I pledge allegiance to Dear Leader Donald Trump”

What he actually meant;\n\n“We let terrorists in and now we’re going to lose the election so we’re panicking. Please vote for us again.”

Lady, when Stephen Miller was taiking about de-naturalizing citizens, who do you think he meant?

A lot of people in the comments section are calling this guy weak for not doing anything, but what was he meant to do?\nLose his job & possibly go to jail by crashing out over a guy who doesn’t have enough money in his bank account to pay credit for his food deliveries?\nCome on man, clearly there are some issues that just need to be left alone, he has too many things to lose over the disrespect.

We have a system meant to process immigrants from all countries, Europe Africa or asia and immigrants must go through that system or go home. End of discussion.

Is everyone aware that income tax is not meant to be given away to people from other countries?
