Sounded like he said he dont want them or want to help them...but u all moan whwn the west wouldn't take more of immigrants in and we are racist if we dont take them...yet he says no and its all goid cimments duble standards...isreal was there before palistine thats just facts

I wouldn't be surprised if that question was a plant. That's the new media push now that the humanitarian crisis is unbearable. Let's get our corporate media lackeys to start pushing the narrative Arab and Muslim countries should take them in. They are already pushing Congress to use our foreign aid to help ethnically cleanse Gaza.

There is NO other country I would ever choose to live in. Born and bred here in Canada. Things are broken everywhere. Still believe my country is a wonderful place to live a beautiful, mostly peaceful, non gun hungry population, life. No place is perfect. But we seem to have laws that respect ALL people that are legally here. There is ALWAYS room for improvement. No gonna lie. Again. I wouldn’t live anywhere else.

Palestine was never a country their was a British mandate but no Palestine state the jews however did the kingdom of Israel 1050BC their taking what theirs back Palestine was a name of a region if their wasnt the plo they wouldn't have occupied the west bank

Well, the Arabs had the choice of going along with the UN resolution for partition in 1947. But they wouldn't. So now they're grandchildren are paying the price.

By the same logic, why wouldn’t the US and the UK open their doors for the poor Israelis who can’t live in peace with Hamas underneath Gaza?

Born in Canada, I left Canada 10 years ago for SE Asia. Canadian Salary was good but after Tax and poor exchange rate, Purchasing power is no good, Work life balance feels like slavary. Weather is harsh. I wouldn't want my kids exposed to the school and social system. \n\nSocial justice and westeren guilt has gone wild.\n\nAlot of people seemed unhappy.\n\nMarriage laws made me SWARE to stay single / Marry abroad.\n\nThere are however plenty of good things about Canada too of course.\n\nI may return if we get a sensable goverment someday.

I'm a Canadian who has experienced the lumber yard culture and there is a reason that things are not going well in the housing market. Contactors love building for High end market but never for average or the lower market end. Maybe if there was some pro Bono work required there wouldn't be the problem there is today.

A small mishap. Thankfully the security didn't overreact. There are some security guards in Brazil or USA that wouldn't be so gentle.

If we quit screwing over other countries for corporations profits maybe this wouldn’t be as bad

Yes Canada, especially big cities Metro Vancouver or Toronto, is like a Mercedes or Porsche… who wouldn’t want one, but how many people can afford?

I have no respect for people who let their country fall apart and say there is nothing they can do, imagine if We said that when the British were ruling us and didn’t fight,one thing is for sure we wouldn’t have a border problem because we wouldn’t be America,but I can’t stand when people dont put in the work and just want the rewards

The “daughter caring show” done by father is commendable. Useless guy, Had he done this caring and taught the daughter manners, this incident wouldn’t have happened

Dafuq... ?This what you get for your sh1tty tolerance. Had y'all put them in their place in time, there wouldn't have been such an issue.

I lived downtown Toronto from 2002-2011. The footage you have is near my old neighbourhood -- Dundas and Sherbourne, Allen Gardens, etc. Those were sketchy areas back then, but at least the parks weren't full of tents. I definitely wouldn't live in Toronto now. Much better places elsewhere in the world. Am in Melbourne, Australia now and while housing is expensive, we don't have the open drug use and poverty everywhere like Toronto.

I wouldn't live in shithole Canada if someone paid me

This is kinda stupid now.. why wouldn’t they go through the same process like everyone else? This is madness! Those people are so hardworking but why won’t they use the same energy to work on entry the legal way? On a side Note, the Chinese immigrants are probably amongst these chaos and they are still bad mouthing the US.

If america didn't destroy their countries,they wouldn't be here at the border,the chickens are coming home to roost !

America has GONE down the tubes…….\nITS TOO LATE…..\nThe American flags in America are already being TORN DOWN !!\nIt’s happening across the country…..\nLook what’s going on and NOTHING IS BEING DONE\nITS A REAL SHAME folks\nOur country has been sold out. When people from other countries come here and tell you what to do is UNBELIEVABLE, (( ) true\nI wouldn’t be a young person in America today for anything !!!! They will experience a Nightmare ..

Very good list...informative and factual. Thumbs up from Vancouver! Immigrated in 2002...wouldn't do it again...on my way out asap.

Well you should know the LAW before you go , I wouldn’t stumble drunk up the road in a Muslim country , think the world owes them something

No shit....Only a liberal voter wouldn't understand this concept.

Jeez. Indians communicating (although I wouldn’t call all that yelling as communicating) in English on Indian soil (in this case air, cos they’re in the sky. Lol). That’s weird

Make it against the law to hire immigrants . They're not going to because we need them. If they didn't have no job to come to they wouldn't come. So go after the people who is hiring them. They're not going to do it.

This proves that we need Donald Trump so bad! I cannot believe what I am seeing! We need that man back in the White House. This wouldn't even be happening if he was still in the white house!

To go where? To the USA. You wouldn’t get me to leave CANADA. Where do you think all your benefits come from for crying out loud. Living in the US is a lost cost.

I'll spell this out very plainly so anyone can understand. The economy in Canada is completely crippled for 2 reasons. Lack of social housing built by the government for decades, and greedy REITS and multi property owners squeezing every penny out of Canadians they can AKA late stage capitalism. If there was social housing, a house wouldn't cost 700k on the national average, and there wouldn't be such a big market for the REITS and landlords to gobble up every house. There would be more to go around creating less of a tight grip like they have now.

I have relatives in the Colorado & Nevada. Driving down the highway we had a guy pull a gun out because we passed him. He, & we, had kids in the car & he's yelling his head off & waving his gun around. Yikes! I like visiting, but, wouldn't want to live there.

If things were affordable, I wouldn’t want to leave. But it seems like there’s no better option either

25 Years ago there were reports interviewing Doctors annd Professors driving cabs because they Had to Essentially Go Back to school Allll over again to meet Canadian Certification.\nLike some Equivalency Test, Just like a G.E.D. for crying out loud, wouldn't have worked better and Faster and gotten them into working at their chosen trade.\nThe Fact that This is Still a Problem that Hasn't been Addressed in 25 Years...tells me All Sides, regardless of Party have been Absolutely Negligent in this area.

Support ALL Canadians.. you guys just came here,, we've lived here out whole life and can't afford a home for our FAMILIES!! And we have been paying taxes for 30 years, my family for over 100 years... you are getting an extremely good education that you wouldn't get at home. Why do you deserve a home more than the rest of us??

Speaking as a Canadian Filipino, I find it interesting that more and people would rather move to the Philippines than move to the United States.???? Consider through American attitudes...who, although those that have no morals... wouldn't want to move to the United States.

I am African American woman in born and raised in United States. Decide go to moved Canada.I so glad I never stay in Canada all rascist going up there now and came back to United States. I was going moved on Toronto Canada this was 1984. I was I probably didn't notice rascist, but I had to leave Toronto, Canada cause funeral in USA. Afican taxi cab told me I wouldn't make it in Canada and this was in 1984. It very hard black person lived here. I very glad took his advice.

I wouldn't live there if you paid me to do so. Wayyyy to many liberals and their smug attitudes. Lets just keep importing the world and see if it gets better.

So after moving from USA to Canada and now living in Switzerland, my only regret is that, I should have moved to Switzerland first. If I start talking about the growth I have achieved here, I wouldn't finish. So a person like me will never agree with you over all the points raised except for the language barrier.

Nova Scotia has one of the highest crime rates in Canada and lacks in the schooling system in some aspects and has the highest cost of living among Canada but I wouldn't change anything about my home province

Why wouldn't you leave when taxes are so high?

I'm from Sydney, Australia and visited family in Toronto just before Covid and no offence but for a metro area of almost 7 million people it's incredibly boring. I was also genuinely shocked at how dirty it was. If I didn't have family there I honestly wouldn't go back.

I want to leave too, I suppose to have a MRI for my spine but I wouldn't have one till next year and that is one and half year away. The health care is seriously deteriorated all around not just Calgary.

Wow, I'm shocked?.\nI loved Canada, was born here, I try to fight for it, but I wouldn't even know what things to do anymore.\nEverything is so bad, I want to leave.

People blame trudeau.\nThis is a democracy.\nThe leader is a reflection of the people, its priorities and its values.\nIf you don't like what you see in parliament, time to look at yourself.\nIf canadians didn't like drugs, junk food and woke stupidity, they wouldn't have voted him in.\nIf trudeau ran for office in 1950, he would not have been close to winning.\nThe government was different then, but again, so were the majority of canadians

Where are they going? Are they returning to the country of origin or going to another destination country? Wouldn't that information help us to analyze the issue?

See ya wouldn't want to SEE YA!

Who cares, you can come to Canada or leave Canada , do what u want, yeah houses are crazy expensive and yeah are prime minister sucks, but I wouldn’t wanna live anywhere else , Ive lived in Victoria BC , Edmonton Alberta, and St. John’s Newfoundland, allways felt safe, being able to do what I want regardless of race , gender , religion, makes Canada one of best counties in the world , we’re not perfect, but I’d say other counties could learn a thing, we’re known for being nice, we’re not known for being cheap, if u want cheap, go to Thailand

Sadly some are also only here for the passport which concerned me as being an issue when dual citizenship came in 1988. I was concerned that there wouldn't be a reason back then as to why someone would adopt Canada as home when their native land was home to them

I don't blame anyone for leaving Canada; the issue is that corporations are bringing in more immigrants without building more homes, and the quality of life is deteriorating beyond repair.\n\nI wouldn't mind newcomers if the housing was stable and there were more jobs available, but that isn't the case. \n\nOur issues stem from large corporations sucking the blood of the poor and looking for cheap labor. If you can afford it, leave Canada.

See Ya ! Wouldn't wanna be ya !

Why wouldn’t they ? Better, more affordable places to make their futures.

Hmmm, maybe if they worked with universities and colleges to lower tuition fees (or make them free, like Ireland) we wouldn’t have this issue.

Maybe if employers treated their employees with a bit of respect than there wouldn't be a shortage. I've been working for 35 years and rarely have had a job with decent management.
