There are just so many misinformation and misrepresentation from this video. \n\nFor example, for how long has the person you are interviewing reside in Canada to be able to come to those conclusion? Is the person working full time? He said he is a research student so how does he know what it is to work and not enjoy your money when he is just a research student who is not earning salary? \n\nEveryone will just come to Canada and be talking down on the country. Why not go to US, UK or Australia and go find out if people are faring better there.\n\nSalary will be better in Nigeria where you are not paying taxes on most things. Having 3 cars and driver means nothing in developed countries. \nWe all have hands to drive ourselves around. \n\nWhat majority of these people that give negative comments about Canada is experiencing is called Culture Shock. Period!

DEMOCRATS!!! DIDN'T MAYORKAS AND Y'ALL SAY THERE WASN'T A PROBLEM AT THE BORDER? EVERYTHING TRUMP SAID IS TRUE, EVEN THOUGH YOU PEOPLE CALLED HIM RACIST FOR IT. NOW EVEN BLACK PEOPLE IN NYC PROTESTING IMMIGRANTS AND THE SAME POLITICIANS DECLARING THEIR STATES SANCTUARY CITIES ARE CRYING ABOUT IT. HYPOCRITES

Life in Nigeria is only decent for those living affluently in Lekki, Victoria Island, Ikoyi, certain areas of Ikeja and Abuja. Outside of that, life for everyday Nigerians is crap. Water & electricity (NEPA) are highly unreliable & intermittent, so fuel-powered generators are a necessity for living everyday life per household or per apartment in apartment complexes. The banking & government systems are notoriously sluggish, taking weeks and months to process simple paperwork such as drivers licenses, passports, certificates, banking transaction reversals, you name it. Bribery is a daily occurrence EVERYWHERE. Police (if you can call them that, mostly untrained thugs) detain & extort motorists and/or people innocently going about their daily lives, just for the money. Many many many people disappear mysteriously without ever being seen again by family or friends. Lots of inter-racial discrimination and animosity between the three major tribes that make up Nigeria… Yoruba, Igbo & Hausa-Fulani. The federal & state governments are horribly corrupt, bordering on dictatorship. Elections are undemocratic, to say the least, with thugs threatening voters at voting booths. I could go on?\n\nThis is why many Nigerians with any amount of wealth live in diaspora, whether that be the UK, Canada, the USA, Europe, or wherever. And, yeah, be prepared for everything being structured & organized in these countries, especially in North America. The cost of living is definitely higher to pay for a higher quality of living. That’s the difference between a developed country vs a country, such as Nigeria, that’s developing or considered ‘third-world’. Unfortunately, here in Canada we cannot account for the last 8 years under our current administration, which has gone rogue & is out of control, causing high inflation, interest rates and housing and cost of living to soar. This is not normal conditions even to those of us natural-born here. So, we feel for immigrants who have arrived in good faith in the last few years. I’m sure their country of origin is looking better than what is being experienced here in Canada currently.

Tired of hearing this nonsense from people who live abroad. \nThe system is working that’s why you work for every dollar, but man wanted to get to work, loiter about and call that “enjoying his work”.

The dumbest people on this planet is so called black people, A people that doesn't know who they are, What they are and their status on this planet, They leave their natural habitat where everyone else is going to extract the wealth of those lands, They are running to a places offering themselves to be slaves where they don't belong, Have no business being there among those that hates them with great passion, Go back to your natural habitat where you are the indigenous peoples and put your thoughts together and make use of the resources at your disposal.

In Africa they hardly work sit in chairs unconcerned even when patients are calling for attention unlike Canada you will work. Those people that work in Africa puts 10% of work in their daily shifts whilst the 90% is relaxing and flexing around this is the reason why most of these professionals find it hard to cope in Canada. Ghana my Country is not an exception.

In my town in Ontario, in 10 years I went from seeing basically only white people, to now sometimes i am a minority in public because of how many Indian and Philipino people that have moved here. Im glad they moved here and chose my town to call home to better their famlies lives. Good people

Dont worry people M.A.I.D. will be available in Canada for everyone soon!\nYou won't have to pay any more taxes ?. \nThat's what we call living the dream!

White supremacism is a political ideology that is seen globally. Where ever so-called white people have been, it has been like a stain that its adherents, white supremacists, refuse to clean but hide under a rug. And make no mistake, one does not have to be white to be a white supremacist.

Seems like an issue that the border czar to handle. Get her down there to straighten it out. Hahahahahahaha. Because you see America is a country and mexico is also a country. And when one country has people that want to goto another country then they try to goto the other country. So then you have people try to get to that other country. And then the country that is a country will have more people in that country. And the other country will have less people in that country. \n\nSomething tells me the people that voted for kamal toe. Will read that and say. “Oh my god, that’s soooo true”. But if you’re someone that voted for kamal toe and crackhead Sr. Then all the illegals should have a bed in your home. You voted for it. So they are all your problems now. California, New York, D.C., and all the other left wing nut ran states should be forced to take responsibility for the illegals coming over by the thousands. But the minute they get to kamal toes state she calls it unethical and racist and dehumanizing to ship illegals there. But it’s okay to freely let them over just so long as they stay out of her city. But whatever. No surprise that the left is full of hypocrisy and lies. Can’t even figure out who left their cocaine in the White House. Even with all the cameras, security guards, checkpoints, and metal detectors. Maybe it’s not “ can’t” but more they “don’t want to” figure it out. \n\nOn a side note. If you get pulled over and have 3 people in the car with you and the cop finds cocaine, and nobody fesses up to it. They all can be charged. Soooooooooo. Just figured I’d share that small piece of information.

People complain about call centre scams which is fair. But what about these college scams that Canadian and US govt of white people carries out to target vulnerable people.

Dude, Vancouver is the Bel Air California of Canada. You never use Vancouver as an example. That's like someone referencing Bel Air in comparison to the entire United States. That's where all the rich and upper-class people live, whom aren't the majority. But ya, Canada sucks. I live in the worse part of Canada. We call it, Quebec. lol Trust me bro, Quebec is the most isolated part of Canada. Canada is going to end up like Venezuela. It's actually heading there faster than I predicted it would.

I’m an American with an above average paying job and I can’t find a place to call home, why are we still letting people come in like this?

call out the national guards these people's are trying to bum rush there way here.

And what will all these people do when they get here, no job, housing,don't speak English so they'll be at the mercy of so called scam artist

Are you honestly surprised, the do gooders said this would never happen , well it has and it’s coming near all of you very soon , the genie is out the bottle .\nWhen told what was going to happen you called people out as racists, now watch what is going to happen …..\nYou all sat on your arses and let this happen now reap the seeds you sow , as for the do gooders enjoy…….

I'm not saying all but most of these people also terrorize American people and American children. The lot of them once they've reached success here in America, start bragging about how cheaper it was in there country to live and all the so call good memories and start throwing dirt on American nationality. I've had a friend member get beating by a gange of them because one of there sisters liked him. They will give you a smile to your face or a sad face for one to feel them but when you turn your back there's a totally different expression. Don't be a victim to there fake ways or you will be doomed to there will.

I just called my grandmother in El Paso to talk to her about this and she hadn't even seen it on the local news SMH she said there are so many people that have come in and there is no room they are sleeping on the streets? I call her all the time from SC to remind her to be safe with all of this going on.

And Venezuela has the biggest oil field on the planet bigger than Saudi Arabia and there government has no clue how to take its people its people out of third world living conditions? Greedy corrupt so called politicians is why. invest in your country in your people through trade, technology and infrastructure. There stuck on STUPID how dumb can you really be? Being greedy and corrupt thats how.....

Texas needs to call the national guard to keep these people out to Texas. Abbott needs to call the National Guard & the President bc this is ridiculous.

First of all, Trump did have immigration policy, so right there you’re lying he had the wall because the people coming and trafficking children and don’t forget about the cartels that are killing people with drugs … as far as let’s just call it the gays because that’s what it is we have no problem with that. The problem is when they’re trying to brainwash innocent children. All of this shit comes down to is messing with children and we’re not gonna allow it. Open borders, child trafficking, sex trafficking. Killing innocent babies at nine months old is wrong. Killing innocent babies after having a kid is wrong. If you guys actually agree with something like that, then I will say you guys have no soul . You can have gay friends and you can have a gay community just don’t mess with my children. Don’t mess with anybody’s children it’s wrong and you know it. Most people that are coming into our country are criminals and they’re tearing it up it’s very sad What is going on here you people \n are so brainwashed so badly that you don’t even know what .

TRAVELLED THERE BUT MOVING THERE ? NEVER ! Oh by the way, stop calling your country AMERICA. The Americas are continents of which there are 2: NORTH America and South America. Your country has no name per say ,,,'The United States', Yeah we all can see how ''united'' you guys are nowadays. Actually only a few of the New England states are inhabited by more sensible people, a majority being descendanta of Acadians and French Canadians.- I rest my case !

Are they the same people that call Canada a white colonial dictatorship. They should be happy to return to India because Canada is soooo racist

Trust a negotiation at your own risk. The city was to be called akon city and u invest your money into that? ?????. All these negros stealing from other black people, deleting other black people. Cynthia g is right. Nothing good can come out of these trifling ass b*tch ass bandits

? Those poor people. This country is evil. This State is evil. I'm surrounded by sadists who call themselves Christians.

A Weapon is a Weapon no matter what for any Cult that it might be or any other beliefs that it might be but the RULES are RULES that are set for anyone & everyone whatsoever no matter what..all & everyone has to abide & follow Every Nation’s, Every Controlled land’s, & even Everyone's homes have their own rules. Customs Rituals Traditions may be definitely\nfollowed but accordingly Especially Weapons & Arms whatever those who carry them want to call it as but they pose severe threat to the other people in civic society & publicly demonstrating & there's no space for explanations keeping on..God knows the truth or whatever the divine entity that one believes in knows what's what. Things happened & hence anything can happen & one cannot know.

Yes, of course, although Canadian views can be true sometimes. Yet, we cannot defend our own Country as you can. That alone makes us ' nice'. We have to be.\nDo you see realness vs manipulation here, even for/against ourselves?\n Not to mention a new thing I've learned through an American. Homeownership & land rights. We have something called mineral rights. Ownership of land under homes is unknown sometimes I am sure. No wonder the government can just get rid of people (paying something of course) off their land.\nIf we considered North America as a whole, America would be the male of the 2 countries. Kinda weird but a vague thought. \nWith all the immigration I am beginning to feel like a stranger in my own country. Dealing with it but, they are not the only ones feeling stress. \n\nIt's hard for anyone to move though when family is important to you.\nBlessings

They literally treat immigrants better than us. It’s horrifying being a Canadian citizen and watching someone come over from Pakistan or wherever the fuck and getting handed 35 000 dollars and a house while people born and raised here struggle to find housing period. Call me racist say whatever but our country is bass ackwards and cares more about bringing outsiders in than helping it’s literal native population.

Coming aboard on professional job and having those top notch skill set is not everyone cup of tea. Watching these so called Desi.. one thing is for sure they will never comprehend professional skill set. These are the people who have navrangilala ke sapne.. which take a big blow when they get hit will real life pressure. Not to mention handling pressure is a privilege. Chalo hava aane do, Aur ye churan kisi Aur ko becho!!!

This Canadian lived in Orange County CA for 10 years. I took my the 12 year old with me. I had been offered my dream job and was paid enough to have a good standard of living. However, I lived in an immigrant community to save money as I found many of the high schools were horrid compared to Canada. I had not realized the school to school inequality to be so extreme and my kid changed to independent study at home. So with a Canadian elememtary education, they graduated high school a year only while skipping no courses..\n\nMy kid had medical issues and even with good HMO insurance, we could never get a decent diagnosis until it had gotten so bad that their digestive system was so wrecked. I finally sent them back to Canada for the surgery that we could not get in the USA. It seemed the insurance companies kept getting in the way. And in one case a doctor went all religious on us. After 6 years of almost continuous pain they finally got relief for a decade until the prior damage came back to haunt them However, after a year of university ib Canada my kid went to a private university in the eastern USA. They have decided to remain in the USA and now in their mid 30s, they make really good money anf have top line medical insurance which pays for the ongoing care they need because of the damage caused by delays when a teenager. \n\nI found life in the suburbs of Orange County nice but the OC is not a good place to meet people. When after 10 years there, in 2010 I returned to Vancouver to care for my elderly mother. I had been living alone for 6 years by then and was offered the first job in Vancouver anything close to me dream job there. and I returned to Canada at age 59. I had been approved for a green card in 2008 but there was a 6 year wait for it to come through. But I noticed the racism in the USA start breaking out all over the place when Obama got elected. And it has gotten worse and worse every year. Especially with 45 enabling it so much. \n\nMy circle of friends in Southern California are mainly good people and not at all like what we call MAGA-hats now. Except one who thinks 45 was the greatest. Politically, the USA is on the path that Germany was on in 1933 and I fear for the US Democracy if the Orange One gets in again. Even my kid and their spouse have bug out plans to head to Canada just in case. This is why my kid, while having a green card has never taken US citizenship. Besides, being a Canadian has not affected things the two times they got security clearances \n\nWhile most Americans are good people, it seems that about 25% have gone just plain loco and care nothing about democracy. And appear to prefer the USA to be a totalitarian theocracy \n\nI was there long enough, paying the maximum FICA taxes for 10 years to get a small pension from Social Security and I have Medicare Part A. I can afford to buy parts B and D but I see no reason. I have even better coverage in Canada for way less cost. The USA has a nice warm climate in many places and I just loved that. But otherwise y'all have too many people who want to turn the place into an intolerant police state and to return the country to 1950s levels of intolerance, So in my retirement, I will stay here in Canada. Even though I could go and move in with my kid in the USA and get onto US Medicare.

canada is a shit hole (born and raised here) yesterday there was a job fair at a grocery store and the line of people applying was over a km - for the lowest level position possible. rent in a town no one in the world has ever heard of is more than N.Y.C or Tokyo. we have thousands of homeless immigrants sleeping outside in camps in toronto as they have no where to go and everywhere you go in this country someone is dying from the opioid epidemic, crime has gone up 50% in many cities. no one will ever buy a house and the people born here cant/wont have kids because its to expensive. the Canadian population is dying out bc out government is trash and instead of helping us they bring in more immigrants who will take the shit housing with 14 adults in 1 room and wont call the labour board when they are exploited. that is why Canada accepts so many immigrants bc they are exploitable - very easy to see when you live here its disgusting.

that's why some people call Cattle Class bitter truth

the system is very fair. you get what you sow. You don't understand what Rohan is getting. Rohan is temporary in US. Developed country people are called expat. Sanjay wants to stay with full rights. Then wait. On top of that, one country cant dominate. So proportion matters.

If someone is disturbing you in the flight don't tell the person but push the button and call the air hostess - let them handle it than deal with uncultured people like these

13:06 when I was a kid I sometimes watched a show called “million dollars homes” or something. They were huge with indoor pools, massive kitchens, game rooms, etc. Just pure luxury. \n\nA couple months ago a house down my street was sold for well over a million dollars. We are far from living like those people in that show.

The number of disgusting rootless parasites in this comment section who talk about my home like it is a stepping stone for them to exploit is abhorrent. Usurpingly these classist, unempathetic creatures call the same two hierarchal cultures their origin. I may be slightly victimized by their taking advantage of my territory, but the true and worst victims are the people who will be left behind to rot in China and India, which will not rise, and will see all the surplus value their lords extract, be walked out into other polities. The poorest poor are always the worst victims of globalist behaviors. As miserable as I am, being shit on by such sub humans, I must feel greater empathy to those most robbed.

Some things to factor in - 1). American immigrants become citizens. This isn't true for almost any of these other countries. 2). American immigrants are disproportionately low skill. This is true in plenty of these countries. 3). American immigrants disproportionately come from the same cultural sphere, which makes their size more intimidating. 4). A second generation immigrant is not considered an immigrant. These countries just began allowing mass immigration. Americans have been allowing mass immigration all of our history. Including second generation immigrants, you have an immigrant population closer to 35% of the US population, true or false? And more than half of them have the right to vote, to fundamentally alter our nation. \nThere's also no way Americans believe that more than half of the country are immigrants. Almost all immigrants in the US live in a few specific regions. Most Americans see very few immigrants throughout the year. Perhaps, it was offset by the number of Americans surveyed who do live in those specific regions. Surveys tend to prioritize diversity and weigh the opinions of particular groups differently. If they tended to call urban area codes more often, and weighed the votes in proportion to size of the population that each group makes up, then the people saying 50% in say New York or Washington state, which represent many different groups will offset the people saying 5% in Kansas, which are all getting grouped into the older, Whiter cohorts. Most Americans under 18 are non-White. \nOnly 15% of Americans under 18 should be non-White, if America were an ethnically stable nation. Thus, 38% of Americans are recent (post 1970s) immigrants.

THESE COMMENTS MAKE ME NAUSEATED..!!!!! THEIR IS NO HUM ANITY IN SO MANY PEOPLE PLEASE DO NOT CALL YOURSELVES CHRISTIANS...!!!! ?

Why ur podcast are so negative only that Pakistani family interview was good otherwise it’s like ur promoting the negative image of Canada. Plz invite chit chat with shilpa she’s so positive . Call her or anyone who is motivating for people to learn to adjust rather than complaining. U should have interviewed ur father he’s so positive.

I’m Canadian, have lived in 4 countries,now back and retired in Canada.\nI used to visit Palm Springs, NYC, Boston; but stopped in 2015.\nI will never ,ever!, go back, not even just over the Border for a day out.\nI don’t even book flights that involve a change in the US when flying to Europe , even to save some money.\nI think the population of the US in general is becoming more and more brainwashed into warped thinking.\nMy theory is that it’s from keeping decent healthcare and education from the masses…..brains are becoming less and less developed, therefore ripe for ideas instigated by proven morons such as Trump, MTG and the awful Lauren Boebert, to name but a few.\nHarsh, but the US is now a failed place.\nIt used to be a great place…I’m sad now, as the ordinary nice people who don’t subscribe to the ever increasing nonsense there are being subsumed by the worst of humanity if you can call it that.\nWe lived there as children for a bit, but came back to Canada when my Dad got a job here.\nMy brother and I always thank our now long gone parents that we were not brought up as Americans.\n\nIt’s not God Bless America any more, but God Save America.?\n\nWell…you did ask….so there you go.

people following a religion in todays time have to think why and when and for what reason particular dress or other so called religious things were carried. We should not be a blind believer

Stop allowing any idiots in plane please.. undeserving people.. this is what is called class..

We all saw the bloody history of Christianity, and why did we say that Christianity calls for terrorism?? Especially the Catholics, and we saw how you used to kill witches and burn people inside churches contrary to your faith, and we did not also say that the Bible, for example, invites you to do so, even though the Bible did and commanded extermination.

Is Toronto the only city in Canada. Toronto is full beyond capacity. I have been waiting for a call for RGI for more than 13 years and never recieved even one call for a place. So many people are coming to Toronto fleeing whatever they are fleeing, getting housing, and help while i and my children continue to pay for it and live like we are in a third world country because we have to decide if we pay the rent or eat healthy. Dollarama is my frigging grocery store, all the while my taxes pay for people who never payed taxes here. Our country is so ridiculously broken.

I would go and live in some of your dry warm climates in the winter. I did live in Colorado for four months and 87 and 88. It was a little town called steamboat Springs. The people were incredibly friendly. They were very kind. if I had the ability to come and go as I wished and not be bound to it, I would live on and off in the United States. There are whack job weirdos everywhere. We’ve got them here.

She is right, people don't want to change. Also find it strange that Indians who call themselves spiritual and peaceful don't want to live peacefully, shanti nahi pasand!

Go and live in India where Sikhism was born out of vaishnav religion followers family. They made this Sikhism religion to protect their Santan dharma (Hindu) vaishnav relatives and community family members. Pakistan killed tortured all their people many times and almost finished their population in Pakistan and these so called Khalistanis from Canada Australia and US are taking money from Pakistan to destabilise India . Punjabi sikh community support their mother land India then these few Pakistan fed and western Khalistani traitors destabilising India . \nGuru Govind Singh ji loved India and all Sikhism born out of sanatan dharma ( the ancient civilisation religion was given name by middle east people as Hindu). \nToday fed by Pakistani ISI money these people are trying to kill their family members in santan dharma .

So called rich people, don’t hv a civic sense.. shown their actual class in public…

One phenomenon that's come up is how mean spirited people show up at retail stores, demand to speak to the managers, try to get the employees in trouble or fired. It's like they get entertainment or gratification from being cruel to people. It's as if people of little wealth are considered to be less than nothing. During COVID, there were cases of people coughing purposefully on immuno-compromised people, trying to give them COVID and kill them. There are some people like that in Canada, but to a far lesser extent. There are also reported cases in the U.S of people calling their cops on their black neighbor telling them that he's an intruder in his own house, trying to get him swatted.

Imagine blocking out the world so people can’t move freely where they want, and this world is for us all, god will punish these mfs everyone who is a king and a leader will burn in hell, everyone who call themselves god will burn, all the evil will burn and go with the devil himself, these are gods words.
