Thank you so much..... kindly help me see the link

A Sri Lankan who always gets misidentified as Indian reading the comments here. ? I moved here with the genuine purpose of studying for my LLM, after considering several countries. I was offered a scholarship from my university (a top ranking public university) I know several of my Indian colleagues who came to study & now work in universities & firms. I know educated people who came here from SL, India & other South Asian countries who came to study with the genuine purpose of studying & now pursuing PhDs here & elsewhere. I understand how concerned the whole immigration issue is for Canadians & new commers like us. I’ve always loved to study in Canada & now that I’m here just to see all these negative sides is truly heartbreaking. I was able to secure a decent apartment & decent job (both me & my husband)& so are my friends & colleagues. I love Canada & means no harm. I’d love to use my knowledge & serve developing countries like mine one day. I kindly request anyone reading my comment, please don’t judge. There’re people who came here to study & love to contribute their knowledge & skills to the world. Thank you.

Canada's KINDNESS AND GENEROSITY is being ABUSED. \n-8million imigrants (20% of population of 38 mil)\n-a million last year alone\n-4 million indians in Canada today\n-2 million chinese \n????????????

Bro it’s so many of them in Dallas right now it’s not even funny getting all kind of benefits we can’t get

4:45 She missed the biggest problem between building is expensive and they have to charge high. Canadian government allow this developer mafia to market and sell these condos to rich Asians who have tons of dirty money to profitable real estate casinos, make more profit with rentals- arbnb business, and even more profit by flipping home. This is big stab the back poor locals who can not compete with foreign investors and then are terrorized to unaffordable rents to these investors. It doesn't sound like a country, but some kind of mafia running this country

The guardian is working against the evolution of human kind why? I do not know but the whole situation is bizarre.

where is employment of any kind is the biggest question now

Whatever you think, be kind to immigrants so they don't go down a wrong path when they are here. They make a desparate sacrifice to be here and will not integrate if people are hostile.

In a nut shell, irresponsible goverment allowing way too many people when they knew full well the housing wasnt up to par ans after the fact making all kinds of false promises about affordable housing, the liberals have really f...ed this up!!!

Do you mind wearing your baseball cap properly? This really makes you look kind of stupid unfortunately. Thank-you

My area is scenic and attracts many new Canadians. People stop in the middle of the road, take pictures on private property, picnic on people's lawns and leave their garbage including baby diapers. It is a problem which can be fixed. New Cdns.should get some kind of orientation when they arrive so they know what is acceptable and what is not. We would all have a starting place to get to know each other.

We have alot of different races here, but other than in a job setting the people are very tribal and stick to their own kind.

Kind of odd for a UK publication to do an expose on Canada's anti-immigration sentiments while there are active anti-immigrant riots in multiple places at home.

This kind of thumbnail gives the impression that you're trying to direct societal discontent towards specific ethnic groups while immigrants to Canada come from all over the world. @theguardian

The west will talk about everything except the real issue causing all of what they are talking about: capitalism. you brought these immigrants not from kindness or care but because they are cheap labor to take advantage of and to save you crumbling economies.

Reality is USA don’t care much of the time about Canada it’s kind of hypocritical to ask more just with hydro Quebec that is our natural resources for electricity we send it to the states for way cheaper then we pay it here

For decades, the real estate developers have argued that there’s not enough supply of housing. There is not enough supply. But why and what kind of supply do we need? Recently the mayor of Burnaby pointed out that he grew up in a co-op. I also live in a co-op, the federal government stop building these in the 1980s. The mayors argument was that the number of co-ops kept prices down and provided affordable, and very excellent housing. There’s something to this. None of the solutions the government has offered have done anything but make real estate, developers and foreign investors, and also domestic investors richer.what is needed is a massive co-op building program that starts tomorrow. Something in the trillion dollar range. This will provide excellent housing for all kinds of levels of income. But it won’t make developers really rich, or real estate investors.

We aren’t anti immigrant. Canada has always been a friendly and peaceful country and we have always welcomed immigrants. It’s mass migration that we are opposed too because we don’t have the infrastructure or the money to take care of everybody. We have a housing crisis, a health care crisis and mass migration is making us poorer. We are also concerned about culture clashes which we are already starting to see. Canadians are kind and generous and we want up help others but we understand that if we destroy ourselves we won’t be able to help anyone ever again. \nDo NOT EVER label Canadians anti immigrant!! We are not anti immigrant but we are pro common sense.

Too bad the working poor that's spent their life contributing to the american system don't get this kind of support for themselves their just expected to subsidize it for foreigners.

Hello, appreciate the good works you’re doing. Please I have a question kind of in a twist. I’m about applying to canada but should I go the agent way or do it yourself? Which do you think is better? Thanks a lot!

Hi thanks so much for the information, pls am yet to find the link ma’am. Pls kindly help

I was born in Canada in the 80s. My parents are from India. So call me racist if it gets you off. My ass is browner than yours probably. \nMy parents, and my uncles and aunts who came here in the late 1970s had to work their asses off to prove they were worthy of even ENTERING Canada, let alone to live in the country. ALL of my older male relatives who came to Canada at that time had a PhD in a science related field or was a medical doctor. EVEN then, they had to go through years of re-training in Canadian schools in order to have a shot at PR. And they persevered and did it, and did well. \nNow, anyone and their dog is allowed in, and it's kind of an insult to all my relatives had to accomplish in order to build a life here. They had to earn doctorates and medical degrees TWICE (once in India and again in Canada).\nWell, that generation did well, and now we're the kids who are grateful and enjoying the sacrifice they put in. What will the kids of illiterate, minimum wage workers be like? Probably not so good.\nCanada's probably done. But does the average Canadian have any desire to do anything. Nope. They used to value hard work and ambition when I was growing up but Canadian culture has become lack of ambition, and entitlements just for existing. \nSo, at least I was raised with the idea of working to no end and sacrificing in order to accomplish something in life. Now, I have the resources to live where I like and do. Canada's just a place I visit now if I feel like it.\nThose of you who like to sit at Tim Horton's every weekend with your beer and weed every night complaining about how your employer should pay you more obesity privileges, enjoy being served by the migrants who WILL take over as you approach the counter in your government funded scooter. You all reaped what you sowed. Most Canadians WELCOMED socialism and their wish came true. Peace.

You're doing good job! Am interested with a job opportunity, kindly assist.

I traveled to US and I think they r the nicest people,, most of um ,,,but their is few who think they r doing some kind of community service on the name of harrasing innocent people by stalking everywhere ,,,that's what I personally seen happening with someone ,,,it was shocking ,,,but Americans know who they r or their shit they do and they do laugh ontheir creep they do ,,,but just 0.1 of their population,,,and yeah they r dented painted allover ????? but it was Hitlers tactic those people using to Harras minorities,,, but hard working and genuine American would be the nicest person you ever seen ,,,that's my 2 months observation what I Saw

I want to ask you guys a question ( I am Canadian born ), but have had a lot of contact with Americans and have spent some time down in the USA. My question is, Do you think Canadians are passive aggressive compared to Americans? Kind of wishy washy? I find in dealing with Americans is that they are straight to the point and tend to cut out the BS.

You can't blame Canadians for going ballistic when you have immigrants and their kind are pooping in their beaches and gas stations ❤

I wonder how many third world illegal aliens can be stuffed into New York City? It’s turning into some kind of human lab experiment! NYC is going to get disgusting, crime ridden, and quickly become its own third world in the next couple years. I’m glad I don’t live in NYC!

The dems are doing as much damage as they can before the election. Their hope is to brake America so they can rush in with all kinds of socialistic solutions. If this isn't true, why are the democrats letting it happen? Not one word about any of this from the white house.

I thought entering a country without some kind of a VISA is not possible \nI guess Canada is not a country anymore.

We need to drive the Democrats out of the White House.\nThe damn current government does nothing. The United States is not a trash can. It puts all kinds of garbage in it. Now it is uglier than the third world...

You don’t protect the boarders and allow this huge influx of immigrant into the USA, what do you expect and they think it’s open boarders for everyone. What kind of leaders do we have to think this wasn’t going to be out of control and workable. We already have enough illegal immigrants. Is the US government holding office trying to cause more chaos to this country?! Crazy that some ppl, think this is normal and support. Criminals find ways to get around the rules and if you’re smart, you change the law to close off those options. \n\nYesterday I was at this discount Ross store and 70% of those ppl. in the long line were illegal immigrants and had more money than I had to spend. How do I know bc most didn’t speak English.

How are they getting across the border? They give Americans all kinds of hassle crossing the border and yet these people are allowed in with no ID and no passport. The criminals have turned the city into a great big trash heap. What do they think they are going to find? They can’t even get a place to live. New Yorkers can’t even get a place to live! Crap ?!! They are taking better care of the immigrants than they do their own citizens. Interesting that they let them have everything on a platter and yet our ancestors coming through Ellis Island suffered unbelievable indignities!

Ok here is the new problem. IF Demorats win the election, all illegals will be made citizens. They have no skill set, cannot speak English, and cannot be vetted. So they will remain on welfare. Estimates are that over 30 million have entered our country. \n\nThere ie no sustainable way for the US to fund all the illegals and all the citizens currently on SNAP, Section 8, Medicaid, etc. So the demorata...will take benefits away from citizens to be able to fund the illegals.\n\nIt hasn't even begun to get ugly yet. November will decide whether we stay a free western culture or become the worst kind of third world country with our own citizens starving to death.

SANCTUARY CITIES SHOULD GET ZERO FEDERAL TAX MONEY UNLESS THEY SHARE INFORMATION ABOUT ILLEGAL ALIENS WHO ARE BREAKING ALL KINDS OF LAWS BY BEING HERE.\nTHIS IS CALLED\nAIDING AND ABETTING!!!\nWE ARE BEING INVADED FROM THE NOETH AND THE SOUTH. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! WE ARE\nFED UP WITH THIS\nCRAP!\n????

AMERICANS GOT TO SAVE AMERICA NOW!!!! Vote wisely please!!! Four more years of this and American born citizens will be the immigrants in our own country!! Trump 2024!!! Black woman from Ohio!! Crazy as hell !!!! Take ,Take , and Take some more!!! We barely have housing for Americans Now…IDC all kinds of new diseases are coming too!!! Suppose this is Trumps fault too!!! WAKE UP !!!!??❤️❤️❤️❤️

People that vote for this kind of virtue signaling policies should open up their own houses ?.

100% of them are from America to Canada, and then don't like it here and then they run back to the US ?????? \nCanada is a snow desert.... no people, no culture, no love, nothing here other than just bear and moose\nAlso the Canadian law will let you homeless or freeze todeath before they give you any kind of paper...

This is an unintended consequence of the Canadian federal government screwing up and not coordinating with the provincial governments. I think Mexico lobbied and got visa free travel to Canada. The feds decided to increase immigration but there was a lack of housing plus high inflation, kind of a screw up in my opinion.

Kind of weird, a few months ago, we where receiving migrants from USA at illegal passages point by the thousand everyday. So the tide as reversed? A Canadian citizen

Lol Harris's kind bet her family is in there

Unskilled US citizens will be hit the hardest. The overall unskilled labor market will keep getting oversaturated to a point where it will be extremely hard to sustain themselves. The benefits from the government will not be able to keep up with the overall inflation. Once the actual indigenous population, US Citizens, hit rock bottom you will see unrest and riots, this is unavoidable! Hitting rock bottom is the only way for people to get out of their comfort zone, until that time comes this will continue. There is a big different between kindness and being naive!!!

Cartela sending in Drug Muels. China sending hackers and communists. Ukraine sending in Spies. The rest of the world sending in all kind of violent criminals. Good bye NY

As a Canadian I can say I did not know about this and I'm so so sorry our dumb, terrible dictator is doing this to your country. As Canadians we used to be able to trust that our government would bring in families and refugees and Canadians could feel secure and confident that we were helping. Our country was committed to kindness and helpfulness. Now, they're doing this. They're importing young-middle aged men who take jobs from locals and they give them tens of thousands in cash handouts, they steal our housing and give it up to these people who only want to colonize us. These people do not want our help, they want our stuff and it's heartbreaking to see Canadians grow spiteful and resentful. We are not losing our kindness, it is being stolen from us.

What’s the big surprise…it’s also happening all over Europe. White Christians are now a MINORITY in London . It’s all part of some kind of plan . Most of the ‘ refugees’ that have flooded into Europe are young men of fighting age but the media ( BBC , CNN, NEW YORK TIMES etc etc ) will show pictures of crying children or mothers holding their children with tears in their eyes …but that is NOT the reality . The media on the LEFT is manipulating you . WAKE UP …..though I think it’s already too late . ( especially for Europe)

Canada got more than 3 times that number crossing our border into Canada from New York and your mayor foot the bill for that. Now I know you said no takes backsies but we don't won't them and would you kindly come and pick up the rest of them. Be a good neighbour and stop dumping your trash on our lawn?

as a NYer that lives in the suburbs, i say let them come so that NYers in the city will learn wtf they voted for, they have not suffered enough! only till they hit rock bottom do they realize they fked up for allowing these kinds of policies in the first place. good intentions of idealism doesn't solve reality problems and that's a lesson NY democrats need to learn by firsthand experience.\n\nFYI in case anyone thinking I can say what I say because none of this effects me, you are sadly mistaken. I too like many in the suburbs are effected either by prices or by crime albeit we aren't at ground zero like most of you democrats in the city so we don't feel the full effect but they're creeping into our areas too; don't be mad at what I'm saying, I'm only being real with you as opposed to your other democratic friends who bs you into voting along with their line of thinking.

Mexicans need a visa to enter Canada has since about march.\nAnd the pple from like venezuela, honduras, bla bla bla, also need a visa.\nNot from all countries in Africa or Europe though. So there's kind of an invasion happening right now.\nI know we have a smaller population compare to the U.S., but a LOT of the land is inhospitable for pple ( too cold in the wilderness ... ). So less space to pack them all up ...

The Globalist Oligarchy are enslaving the entire planet.\n Now consider what kind of lunatic it would take to be part of such a thing.\n These people are absolutely Godless meaning no accountability for their actions.\n They want elites with human chattel.\nForced labor,sex,organ donation, experimentation of All sorts,\n A place that makes dystopian existence the good ol days.

I live in Buffalo, NY on the Canadian border. For the last 50 years (my memory), we’ve never had an issue with illegal crossings. \n\nAlthough NYS is a “sanctuary state”, we are NOT a sanctuary city. Local police do work with ICE, as much as they’re allowed. There’s no free housing or benefits. Thats only NY City. \n\nThe border is in a rural area. The kind of place everyone has a shotgun of some sort. Walking up on someone in their back yard may not work out the way they think it will.
