I left Germany after 5 long years. Despite having a Blau Karte, a salary of €86,000 and eligibility for the EU long term residence permit, I just couldn't stand the retarded bureaucracy, extremely inefficient systems, long waiting times for everything, the refusal of many businesses and service providers to even adopt English as an option, the dull cities, crazy real estate prices and a lot more. People were generally nice, but it wasn't too difficult to come across the nasty ones, especially in the service sector. Service, even with high prices, absolutely sucks in Germany, like the complete opposite of Asia. \n\nI didn't even apply for the EU residence permit because I couldn't bother with German B1. I speak 6 languages, so learning isn't an issue for me. My heart was just never in Germany, and it never felt like home at all.\n\nIn Germany, there's a shortage of everything, except attitude.

My wife and I are highly skilled (both have post-graduate education), and my wife has German as a joint first language. We left for the following reasons: poor pay, high taxes, poor personal freedoms (an effective one-party state), crime and better opportunities elsewhere. The AFD is not one of the reasons why we left.

So how are you going to keep those workers with the political situation against immigration being what it and you know, the high cost of everything? Like we all know employers aren't about to pay those immigration workers high wages. Am sure one or two will be dragging large bags but the majority are going to be in the same boat as the people who left found themselves.

Why not make one country and call it AmCan largest country in the world

All this hate talk. Canada has a population about the size of California. We will never be overcrowded. Tokyo has 14 million people, so Toronto is a drop in the bucket, and yet Tokyo is a great city. The whiners say it is not racism, yet I am sure they would not bat an eye if it was all Americans moving up here or Europeans. The mass movement of people has been going on for eons, as people tend to move from bad areas to better ones.

No one asked you to remove Gaddafi’s regime! \nNow you have 1800km of open shoreline responsible of 70-80% of the smuggling operation, tribes control the whole country and they charge illegal immigrants 1000$ each to take them to the other side and usually it’s easy to cross the Mediterranean! \nEnjoy your cooking!

Many of my friends who studied Masters here in Germany are struggling to find a job and yet they say we need skilled workers. Where are the jobs.\nFor language issue why can't you work with companies and give conditional offer to employees that in 2-3 years you have to be fluent in German and give them an opportunity to learn the language and integrate.\nBut did we see this no and yet they say we want workers..Yes you will get people obviously the world is big but not the quality one and in some time your situation will become like of France and UK.\n\nAnd though I have finished my Master and working in a company for very less salary still i regret my decision to come here leaving my well paid job in my home country was the worst mistake. \nBut now i have to find a way out from here

A nation does not belong to the world. It is property of its own citizens. No one else. It exists for those citizens.

Germany dont have any facilities for Skilled People, after working for 3.5 years in a good position, Finally I'm moving out next month. \nGerman system is build for unskilled asylum seekers (both legal and illegal ones)

Canada is not\nFor all people Canada is for Canadians. To allow groups of people who do not hold our beliefs outnumber us then the country will no longer hold our beliefs and we will be the ones without a home. Instead of letting others join ours. It’s not racism to want to keep your homes way of life. The country’s most come from are not returning the same kindness.

Uncontrolled immigration is a problem everywhere in the western world. I live in the US, supposedly one of the best, and had to fight for a long time to get into my apartment. Ignoring legal immigrants, did you know that the US government creates programs where illegal immigrants get free housing?

Nice one Justin! Another win for the Liberals

The same in Germany - and no one has the will to stop it.

I have been living in Germany since 6 years and so far I have 1 German friend ?, probably I'll get a new one in the next six years

no one wants to live in the 3rd world

This is one of many things that make me want to leave Canada, for good!

If I may share some solutions that will benefit Canada and ALL PEOPLES that breathe and live in Canadian Air!\n\nA prosperous country is one that welcomes new peoples to their lands.\n\nForceful Policies that attribute numerical outcomes are cold, harsh, and disrespectful to those who are currently contributing to towards the success with their energy and loving open spirits.

Hey man. I think that the 2 leaders of opposing countries, religions, “teams” whatever, they should meet, promising everyone is safe, promising to each other n keeping their promise, and they should have dinner or lunch, maybe breakfast. But they should face to face, share a meal and talk. I promise u that things would change for the better. We all should do this. There would be way less war, eventually none. Then, we build, because if u give a man a fish, he has one meal, but if u teach a man to fish, he feeds his family for life. Time to do this

Hi, thanks for the information. please how can i contact you in person. would love to talk to you one on one. thanks i await your response

Need to Depot this all people to their origin countries and only one man can do this. And THE NAME IS TRUMP.

The owners are criminals. All they do is put in new carpet or paint the walls and then rent goes up ?? these condos and buildings need help. I hope all tenants get away with it dead serious. Making one bedrooms into two ????? is ridiculous!

its by design. the same people wanting to take in more immigrants are the ones preparing to make you live in government housing. You will own nothing and be happy remember?

I worked in the gold industry and nobody ever bought any precious metal as an investment. It is one of the most foolish things you can do with your money. Where do you safe keep it? It earns no interest. And everyone sells it at a loss.

One race, one language, one religion One World Order!?

3:47 India outnumbers all other immigrant nations COMBINED? Diversity is about actually having diversity, not having everyone from ONE country that is taking over Canada. duh. I just have to laugh, Canada is simply the dumbest first world nation by a HUGE margin. How can you be this stupid?!

I believe the government should take a more proactive approach to managing the number of people admitted into Canada, ensuring a balanced and equitable distribution. It's important to avoid scenarios where larger groups overshadow smaller ones, which could lead to future challenges. Additionally, we should aim to prevent issues similar to the riots currently happening in the UK.

Amusingly this video auto played right after the UK one, exact same problem.

the physic law: the opening of the valve between two connected containers, one with the clean water, another one with red colored water results in the pink water filling both containers at the same level.

The gaslighting is strong with this one... When a proper gvmnt comes to power, let's see how long The Guardian survives without its govmnt subsidies

Modern immigrants expect to both better as well as replicate the one they've left behind. Why would anyone coming from an impoverished life expect anything different?

Why not Traedu and Doug Ford hiring more judges to speed up . Tenancy board is one year behind. Bearocracy enjoying huge salaries. They don't care what is happening with real estate market and tenants are taking advantage

Sadly, there is no housing for the people born there, theres long wait lists for surgery and people are dying before being seen, theres a rise in crimes, theres kids being stabbed to death, theres anger every where, in every country for the same reasons.... its time for All our politicians who All need to be Protecting the people of the country and the country itself. ... its not the people coming to work, to have a family and assimilate into the local community and culture..... its the ones who want to cause trouble, who refuse to work and expect to be kept by the tax payers who legally live there... the workers are sick of being over taxed, over worked, while others spit in their eye whilst riding on their back ...

My dream is to move to india or iran said no one ever

This and most other Canadian crises have just one name on it: Justin Trudeau.

I wouldn't say that because Ethan Duggan, leader of Take Back Canada, managed to persuade 150 people (his estimate) to demonstrate against immigrants in Canada's largest city, that anti-immigrant sentiment is on the rise. He hasn't been able to get any attention in far-right media in Canada, beyond one interview and his second planned rally appears to have been cancelled.

The way to dilute your resistance to the WEF's One World government is to import socialists from around the world who will clamor for government handouts. Free money, food, and healthcare until capitalism collapses. Read books by Cloward & Piven. They published their plans.

I’m not Muslim but I can understand some of these reasons why you’d want to leave Canada…Canadas not merely diverse anymore it’s diluted, money & bills culturalism is the real identity…it’s hard then ever to acquire personal wealth in the socialist nation. Still one of the cleanest & safest though…isolated crimes yes, bigoted & discriminatory somewhat but the irony is it’s mostly from the new immigrants that bring it from their own war torn etc countries. I don’t thing anybody loves the cold.

i'm french Canadian, a went to USA 6 times... only to go to Walt Disney... i would never live there... but i love Disney ! i wish we had one in Canada, but we will never, because it's too cold here

Immigration by itself is not bad and one could argue that it may actually be required if there is no population growth. An idea is to slow down immigration and require immigrants to demonstrate they are assimilating in the population and culture and not trying to stop Pork from being served.

Hello family, who has an experience with Passage loan at APR 11.95% compounded? My sister intends applying for a one year program with George Brown College and is mandatorily taking a loan of 57000 CAD$ as an international student with 84 months tenor to clear. Pls share any experiences on the ease of paying loan as a student with one year PGWP in Ontario after graduation. Your suggestions would be highly appreciated. If there are more affordable pgwp eligible colleges in hospitality with high acceptance rate, let me know.\n\nThanks to Peter and all of you you.

Unfortunately the claim of racism is what immediately shuts down any real discussion of this issue.\n\nThe fact of the matter is housing prices are FAR too high. And while there are certainly main contributors, one cannot simply ignore the area of supply and demand. Too many people looking for too few locations to live. It doesn't get more basic than that.\n\nThe PROBLEM is our economic growth numbers are DEPENDANT on immigration, and if we just cut immigration the numbers will plummet and foreign investment will tank. We'd dug this hole for ourselves by voting in leaders that rely on immigration to prop up what is fundamentally a very weak economy.

One of the most un reliable newspapers in the world, very co rr u pt ed

Are there no laws in Canada?? As part of UK, one would expect Canada to have the same level of integrity and laws to protect the needy and helpless

This is very strange; getting a Canadian visa of any kind is one of the most difficult to get

Why would they be concerned, they are the actual ones behind this genocide following Pakistan Egypt jordon uae

One day Canada people 40%other60%

If one compares the illegal immigration numbers to UK and Canadian numbers with respect to land geography mass, we are lucky that there have been no riots. But it cannot be ruled out as the trend is not sustainable socially and culturally.

The issue is not with immigrants or immigration, rather a lack of social structures. Canada has one of the highest taxation, with the lowest return spending on social structures, as compared to their high ranking counter parts.

Vice is time to leave cushy europe,greece and turkey and go to Bangaladesh and do a fantastic documentary on persecution of Hindus in Bangladesh...\n\nY is only muslim and Islami problems your only bread and butter.... \nR u telling us this is one sided journalism.
