Here in Canada is this image of peaceful country who back in 19th century help African Americans to escape from slavery but do not mention that much that Canada also had more then 1000 African slaves by 18th century. Canada is consider as muticulture nation but still African Canadians do not have same equal justice as with white people.

There is a black channel telling black men to visit Canada to date but he forgot to mention the racism

Im mexican and Im sick of immigrants. Our country doesn't have the resources to take them in, and a lot of them just cause harm to our people, robbing and even hurting them, like the guy that hit a kid with a brick in the head ? not to mention, they are ungreteful af, they complain that they get beans to eat. I totally get why americans don't want them there

She seemed like she crazy to me. Also I never heard one mention of police. Most of the time when there's that much disenfranchisement you going to hear the police get mention.

Thank you, Sister. Fellow Canadian born national here from Ontario. I am MOST AWARE of what it's like in Calgary, Edmonton. You forgot to mention Quebec and the East Coast provinces. \nWe all know the Province of Alberta is Klan and White Nationalist country !!

They need to learn the local language. That goes for immigrants in Brazil too. This also goes for foreigners in countries like Colômbia and Ecuador. Nothing against foreigners, but many will work for cheap wages, thus keeping real wages down. And Westerners living in the countries I mentioned drive up the cost of living because home sellers take advantage of their ignorance.

As a Venezuelan who migrated and still travels in the proper ways I can surely say many there want true help. Venezuela is insane compared to what you people even live whit, best work you can get there will make you up to 90-120 bucks a month, no food in supermarkets, some insanely expensive which will make you choose between buy bread or tuna and rice for a whole month ( imagine not being able to eat your favorite meats or prefered food FOR MONTHS, EVEN SOME YEARS) , if you are a professional or educated of course the opportunity grows up but not in a socialist country. as we know you can be a socialist in a capitalist system but not the opposite and this is a fact. Those people are genuinely scared with no home back in their country as for many houses and private properties have been removed with force, some of you sure will be wondering how or why not to follow the main curse to migrate? I had to spend 3 days sleeping on a huge queue with many other people also sleeping in the streets to get our passport(that's was the easy part, 4 years to get the date to finally get that fucker passport.), something so simply done in other countries which such ease, not to mention the whole cost for a passport (I knew people who paid aroundn 700usd to get it asap). \n\nPlease don't pitty these people nor hate on any inmigrants, some families there really wish for a future, and again as someone who had the opportunity to do my papers. We do not wish this upon no body. The pain in the hunger, the fact the money from your country is so little valued that even video game money has way more worth.\n\nIt's a very scary place which we are trying to genuinely scape from.\n\nHopefully for my brothers and sisters from the states try to understand, hopefully these people at some point will need to understand that doing things out of fear will not get them far. Again a very very scary situation.

Future Democrat Voters. Not to mention the increase in crime, welfare, poverty, drugs, the impact on schools and hospitals.

Thank Biden’s and democrats’ policies. Not to mention the millions the cartels are making through the coyotes run human smuggling.

Looks like a cattle stampede. They'll get free housing and medical care. Not to mention free SNAP benefits. Come one come all. No questions asked.

It’s an invasion. Not to mention that these entitled people spit on help from Mexico. \n\nThey aren’t escaping, they chant that they want steak and 5 star hotels in the US. If only they knew how hard it is here.

2:14 spot on, it is the consumers, but you didn't mention foreign Chinese millionaires who come in and buy up property and leave them empty

CANADA IS THE LEAST RACIST COUNTRY ON EARTH, NOT EVEN WORTH MENTIONING

Hi \nUnder the section for children where parents need to include all sons and daughters so I am applying for them so do I need to mention mine name also under this section?

did this dude really mention gov stimulus as a negative point for the Canadian economy without mentioning anything else that happened in 2008? some big stuff happened at that point...kinda wild to jump to immigration as the boogeyman right after.... unironically making the same argument that the weird racist dude on the bus would make. Economists are wild lmao

Homelessness is a courtesy of deranged and stupid dem-rat politicians trying to normalize filth and poverty as much as they can, not to mention providing free drugs to street bums as part of their genius experimental programs

Stupid Politicians. They should implement dual interest rates: pump mortgage interest rates to at least 7%, and have corporate interest rates set to 2-3%. And, set property tax to at least 50% for those whose accumulated real estate is valued over 1M~1.5M. I don't expect the Canadian government would implement such a policy any time soon, the only way out for Canadians is to migrate to the U.S.; Canada soon will become a hallowed country (similar to Hong Kong) - has nothing but real estate - look at the # of jobs related to real estates - totally insane - not mentioning most of these workers only accept cash to avoid taxes. If you are young and not stupid, you should move to the U.S. - period.

The politics of Canada are no longer 'tolerant and liberal'. We are losing our freedoms daily (refer Bill C-11). We are becoming stifled by censorship. We have a spiralling housing crisis. Known murderers are being freed after a few days on bail, leading to a far less safe social environment than we traditionally had. Our skyrocketing inflation and insanely high taxes are crushing our quality of life. The entire situation is deteriorating week to week since there is an active agenda to destroy our economy and society. I should also mention that our health care system is in a state of collapse.

How could you make this video and not mention Immigration?! Canada is the global assimilation factory, boasting over 1m new residents this year, they don't need GDP, people bring other countries wealth there.

I'm Canadian, born and raised. I feel disenfranchised and disconnected from my country. With the economic issues mentioned, I also feel like Canada doesn't have a culture or a proper identity. I don't know what being Canadian is, but it feels like it's just watered-down American culture.\n\nI've been slaving away the past few years in hopes of getting out of this place. It could be a huge mistake, and I know it is a huge risk, but I feel like I don't have much here anymore.

Narrator kept mentioning how things were better 10-15 years ago. I wonder what, but rather who caused this to change.

All the pointers you have mentioned make sense and are total facts. I came as a student and experienced most of the things you shared. Very well articulated.

One of the mentions in this article states Canada's oil and natural gas production is declining? The fact is Canada is selling more oil than it ever has. Takeaway capacity (pipelines) is increasing in Canada allowing for more oil production and will be increasing again by 2024 as additional takeaway capacity construction is completed. As far as Canadian oil sands oil being expensive to produce, the reality is the operators in the oil sands have reduced costs of production dramatically. The advantage of the oil sands is that Canadian oil producers do not have to spend heavily on exploration as they know where the oil is. Also, you will never have an ecological disaster like the Deepwater Horizon with Canada's oil sands. New oil discoveries off the coast of Nfld.& Lab. will be developed. Canada is a major oil exporter & Canada's oil reserves are the 4th largest oil reserves in the world. In Natural gas, Canada ranks as having the 18th largest world reserves. As far as natural gas there is the coastal link pipeline under construction and LNG facilities under construction on the west coast of Canada. These are over $40 billion projects the largest $ projects in the history of Canada.\n Much of Canada's wealth is in the ground. As the world demand increases for rare earth metals, copper, aluminium, steel, nickel, etc Canada is well-positioned to supply world markets. Canadian mining companies operate worldwide and the Canadian miners are both very experienced and good operators. \n You failed to acknowledge that Canada is a major agricultural producer country. In fact, Canada is a bread basket country that exports a lot of agricultural products, meat, and a large fishery industry.\n The article also fails to acknowledge Canada has a very well-developed social safety net system that is superior to many countries.

Blacks are also predomently less educated but you are not mentioning this. WHY>? This is your answer. Education = higher pay. Asian people are generally more educated than whites and they generally make more money than whites, why are you not mentioning this? Banks hirer accoring to qualifications, sorry.

For some reason no mentions the residential building code and it’s complexity that adds huge labour to the cost. A lumber package that costs $60,000 eventually becomes $300,000 in finishing product (flooring kitchen bathroom) and the labour. Then a $10,000 blueprint (starting) new home building permit etc.

The last time my landlord came to collect rent, I invited him to come up to my apartment to show him I was taking good care of the place (and to hopefully discourage him from renovicting me at some point in the future). He said he didn't have time, as he had to go collect rent from 11 or 12 of his other properties around the city. He also mentioned that he had never seen the inside of my apartment before (despite the fact that he owns it). He has only been in the country for a few years, but apparently he already owned a lot of land here before immigrating. He's a very nice guy, but I can't help but feel that there's something seriously wrong with this picture. We can't base our entire national economy on selling our land and resources to rich foreigners while we produce nothing of actual value.

The difference is the quality of life in Canada is ranked by multiple organizations as significantly better than in the US. Better Education, Public Healthcare, and a strong economy mean less stress. Health Insurance in the US is hugely expensive. Incomes may be higher in the US, but so are things like the Health insurance, prescriptions etc. Canada has fewer bankruptcies if someone gets sick, and better social benefits for things like maternity leave... We don't have the huge population, but we also don't have many of the huge problems, like large racial conflicts, high crime rates, gun violence and economic discrepancies... And let's not even mention the vast political polarization in the US fed by disinformation and a free-for all social network where 'truth' long ago became not important, whereas winning is everything. Even if a former president needs to organize an attack on Congress... Overall Canada is a more desirable place to live.

You forgot to mention that British Columbia has the highest poverty rate at 13.3%. Another reason why it's only at #4.

I know people want to get here but this is crazy,they don't know how hard life is here,from hunger to gun violence death,not to mention jobs and some where to live. They need to rebel on their home governments

This is a lovely piece. A lot learned… only that you awarded Canada close to 3 points under the benefits section. you highlighted 3 distinct points and the Uk got 2 of the 3. Accessibility to jobs easily is quite crucial and as mentioned you can give the UK that. Also the wait time from Nigeria is usually a long, vague wait. Nice piece again

What a mediocre effort, you said nothing that hasn't been said by Zeihan and other's, not to mention, you provided no suggestions for solutions, just an opportunity for the resident idiots to cry Trudeau, when in fact the last decade has been one of the most tumultuous Canada has seen for years.

Not to mention that real estate agents really do not earn their commission for the work they do

Notice how as a CNN reporter she never blames the Biden Administration or even mentions Joe Biden or Kamala Harris

Heyy sir, this video is much more informative and I'd like to thank you from bottom my heart for comprehensive guidance. I've one query regarding I've received letters for submission of original passport for my parents so, do my parents' visa approved ? Because they didn't mentioned that visa has been approved or not. They just mentioned that decision has been made. I'd truly appreciate your suggestion.

Bakwas ap 10$ bhe sath Mai mention kare logo ko Sahi bawaqoof banatey ho ??

Thanks for the comprehensive video! Can you please let me know if invitation letter needs to be notarized? And the affidavit you mentioned for the duration of stay was stamped in India? Or we can just provide a signed declaration? Thanks in advance!

Why why we seen this right now really at no point are you going to mention Biden and his clown ass administration

Exactly, not to mention we can’t get shit for ourselves because they over here. This is y we becoming homeless. Cause they taking over our housing and jobs . & then they come over here trashing our neighborhoods bringing rats & roaches. Throwing garbage all over the streets. & BLK people get blamed for everything they do. We can’t get help from the government cause our hard earn tax money to all these immigrants. I’m tired of it its time for them to go back to their toxic country. They nothing but trouble. We can’t go to they country & be safe.

Mdc charge 10$ and you are not mention in this video???

Man, I really do love everyone who is currently in office for our government at the moment. I just love letting any & everyone into our country, not to mention the cost of groceries & gas is amazing too! I absolutely love paying almost $7.00 just for a gallon of milk. It also just makes me think about such better times that were...... I don't know, like three fucking years ago! When the average American could afford to buy groceries & gas, and any other essential as needed. \n\nNow we will find housing for all of the people illegally entering our country, while we have more than enough Veterans sleeping on the street, & not to mention that 22 Veterans a day kill them selves on average. But MS-13 gang member and Mexican Cartel members deserve a nice place to live, hopefully they don't cut off anyone's head during their stay! ?\n\nBut, anyways....This current regime deserves nothing but praise! Thank you, Democrats, seriously thank the Fuck out of you people!!!?

12:31 just wandering what to do as my father lived in Russia for more than 9mnths back in 2012….do i need to mention year of residence after 2012 or his birth year…soo confused??

Notice that there are no news stories about how these immigrants are effecting our infrastructure? No real mention about housing, the medical system, the school system, even being able to handle utilities, water, electric, food in the groceries, etc…\nThe goal is to break down all these systems in our country, to overload with such a large number of people flooding in! Just like too many people trying to get in a life boat!

I agree with some of your views on Canadian immigration. You mentioned a PR timeline of up to 1 year. That’s what it says in the application process but in reality isn’t always the case. It usually takes much longer esp. if your case file is unique or complex. In order to manage people’s expectations. There’ve been cases where applicants in the express entry process had been in it for over 3 year before receiving their confirmation of permanent residency. It can be a roller coaster journey that you need to be prepared for mentally.

Having said the apartment is being monitored by CCTV but not true really the superintendent not only broke into my rented apartment at 164 Madison Avenue TNT and stole my stuff but also hit the floor at unit 205 repeatedly in midnites also (the landlord said without having he moved to another unit or else where) through my repeated complaints too to such low education bad and shameful attitudes ugliness types and nasty type the landlord also just ignored my complaints not to mention the policies also ignored these low worst class of such life assaults fierce impacts in Toronto! The broke in matters and life assult impacts were also ignored by unreasonable disgusting excuses or their own lies excuses must be so ridiculous even though I did not miss any rental payment though! Worthless of such in particular where I rented my living premises EVER! \n\nNo wonder the criminals rate is serious in Toronto the polices cannot avoid their mistakes too !

You forget mention which country is cheaper cuz the uk is getting super expensive

Every single reason you mentioned about why you left Vancouver (Canada) is valid. My husband and I left Vancouver a couple of years ago and have been living in Spain since then. It's been an eye opener. The Covid situation was especially bad and I hate to see how politicians have divided Canada. Under Trudeau, Canada has become a tyrannical state. I am not sure if there will be any hope for change since most Canadians watch CBC and have been brainwashed to believe he has done great for the country.

Since Venezuela is mentioned here, LIFT SANCTIONS on Venezuela and you'll never see a Venezuelan crowding the border ever again. They'll be crowding your luxury resorts instead.

You know, maybe the catalyst was the 39 people killed in the fire, not to mention the crowded, dangerous conditions many face at the border. \nBut, yeah, blame Venezuelans, viewers won't know the difference.....

My heart seriously breaks for these people, you can actually see the grief and pain on some of their faces, trying to escape their situation in their homeland, but damn there's a major shortage of housing already, not to mention it puts a huge financial burden on the US to provide them with food, shelter, medical care, as well as for safety reasons. There's a reason there's processes in place for immigration, or at least there was. It's not okay to let anybody and everybody in the US, why did Biden allow this?

This is ridiculous. I consider myself an independant cuz I agree with certain things on both sides but on immigration I lean republican\n\nThis country is the only country ppl do this in. Y do everyone wanna come to the USA. We gotta do something and I actually agreed with putting up a wall or some sort of stable barrier. Either come here legally or stay where you're at. I'm from the Caribbean and had to wait 7years for my greencard after filing and came here legally and these ppl just wanna rush our borders illegally. And I get your country is inhumane and sucks but we can't take in everyone who lives in a country that sucks\n\nWe have a huge homeless problem in this country and this will only add to it, not to mention these ppl can't work here and will probably go on welfare which puts more strain on the system and the taxpayers. We need to take care of our own b4 taking care of others. Why dont these ppl go rush canadas borders or go to mexico or somewhere else. This angers me
