That’s what we all want to end war ‘ Let the Palestine people stay on there land ‘ Every Country should be able to live in peace Without being threatened by Nuclear power

I totally agree with him. Palestinians don't want to leave their lands. Because it is their land, period! What Israel is doing is inhuman. They are phasing out Palestinians systematically from their land. Western and US Media are not covering the real reason why Palestinians are fighting back.

Oh Khalistan! Our home and Native Land!

Wonderful response! What is it that people do not understand? No one wants to be forced from their homes and land. Colonialism, money, and power dominates our world.

KARMA BITES BACK \n\nYou had the “Indian Problem” now the “new Indians” are the “karma payback” for all that you did to the original inhabitants of Canada. \n\nHistorically, the racial segregation of Indigenous peoples in Canada has been enforced by the Indian Act, reserve system, residential schools, and Indian hospitals, among other programs. These policies interfered with the social, economic, cultural and political systems of Indigenous peoples, while also paving the way for European settlement across the country. The segregation of Indigenous peoples in Canada must be understood within the history of contact, doctrines of discovery and conquest, and ongoing settler colonization.\nEuropean Settlement and the “Indian Problem”\n\nHistorically, Indigenous peoples were considered a threat to European settlement and expansion. During the creation of the Numbered Treaties (1871–1921), for example, the federal government made agreements with various First Nations as a means of developing their territories for industrial development and White settlement. While many Indigenous signatories were reluctant to sign the treaties, they eventually did so because of a lack of food (due to the declining bison on the plains) and the vast spread of infectious diseases, among other reasons.\n\nWith settler colonization came the framing of the “Indian Problem” — the prevailing belief that Indigenous peoples needed to be assimilated into Euro-Canadian culture because their traditional ways were considered “uncivilized” and “immoral.” The term “Indian Problem” is attributed to Duncan Campbell Scott of Indian Affairs. In 1918 he said,\n\n“I want to get rid of the Indian problem. I do not think as a matter of fact, that the country ought to continuously protect a class of people who are able to stand alone… Our objective is to continue until there is not a single Indian in Canada that has not been absorbed into the body politic and there is no Indian question, and no Indian Department...”\n\nWhere are the “original Indians of Canada”? \n\nThey were killed and decimated by the Euro-Canadian colonisers. \n\nThese immigrants are your karma. For what you did to “original Indians”. They are now reborn. This is karma. \n\nThey will not treat you as your ancestors treated the indigenous people of this vast land. These Indians are kind. They are also culturally endowed. They are resolute, dynamic , hardworking and fair. \n\nThe Indians may not be “fair” in complexion but would be “fair” to the poor of their adopted country. \n\nCanada ❤ Indians. \n\nKarma always bites back.

send these muslims to pucky land

Bull's eye, Harrison! Somehow international students and workers get the idea that as soon as their foot touches the 'magic dirt' that is Canadian soil, they assume all the rights and privileges of full Canadian citizens. Wrong! They are guests. Wish they'd behave like guests instead of petulant spoiled brats (which most of them are) who are merely using education as a foot in the door to permanent residency in the 'land of free stuff'!

Why america didnt take the jews as refugees after WW2 holocaust?????????? Why British didn't take them in, instead Palestinians were the one helped the Jews by giving them land and shelter!!!!!!!!!! History never can be erased!!!! We knew!!!!??????

ADVICES to some students: Do not come to Canada!! Why come here??? It is free to study in France and Germany anyway so why waste your money in Canada or Australia!!! Save your money and invest it in your homeland to start a business or buy a land or build a house!!! Don’t do like some North Americans who spend thousands in student loans and spend 15 years to repay them!!! Canada is NIT a as attractive as it was anymore anyway due to lack of job opportunities, crappy healthcare, crappy transportation (compared to France where I come from), and impossible rents!!! Just save your money and may be start learning German and/or French so that you got alternatives!!!!

Need your advice before submitting my son’s PR application form. \n \nBelow is the confused question. \n“Did you complete at least 50% of the study or training program's courses through in-person learning?” \n \nMy son landed in Toronto on Sept, 2021 to pursue a 2 years post graduate course and he completed his course in April, 2023. Due to covid, 1st & 2nd semesters were online and for the 3rd semester, college has given the option to the students to attend the college either in-person or online. My son moved to Alberta in the 2nd semester (March, 2022) due to the job and never came back to Toronto after that. \n \nInformation from Immigration: All clients should provide an accurate response. If you completed any part of your study or training program during the period of March 2020-August 2022, your response will not effect your Comprehensive Ranking System score. “In-person learning” means you physically attended the classes or other forms of instruction. \n \nPlease advise the answer for this question

Canada such a beautiful country with small population is being in...vaded by the most overpopulated asian countries... fix your own lands

Soon the great wilderness of Canada will become the land of Taj Mahals and dirt with cows drowning in the rivers.

Yht ppl should be reminded constantly that they themselves are on a piece of stolen land.

Why should the Palestinians leave their own land never ❤

Some of the stats cited here are straight up wrong or... creatively employed, and there's a lot of contradictory information and the typical conservative 'the sky is falling' sensationalism and misattribution. That said, the bas supposition isn't wrong. The bubble we've been sitting on for 20 or so years has completely burst. As someone born and raised in the Toronto area, it's impossible for me to afford to own a house or apartment here on a teacher's salary. Even rent pushes me to the limit unless I want to live in a... less than nice area. I'm living hand to mouth and enjoying the benefits of living in a 'developed' country less. Here's why:\n\n1. Wages aren't really even close to keeping up with the cost of living. The first tick upwards a bit. The second just keeps rising on the back of housing, food, amenities, and inflation: the four horsemen.\n\n2. Our grocery cabal ruthlessly raise prices whenever we look away, and their lobbyists are all ensconced within the leadership of our three major parties, particularly the Conservatives (so if anyone thinks that electing them will help, they're in for a nasty surprise).\n\n3. We're experiencing 'labour shrinkflation': increasing duties are downloaded onto workers and more is expected: more productivity, more availability (almost 24/7 in some jobs), and higher qualifications. Meanwhile, real wages are decreasing relative to living cost, more positions are 'contract', which is basically a way for employers to not have to give you benefits, and job security is tenuous for a lot of people.\n\n4. Houses are being bought by investors and not owners. Foreign entities are money laundering. The wealthy upper crust of high population countries are moving here and buying property because Canada is (still) more safe and stable and less repressive than their home countries in most cases. \n\n5. There's a cycle beginning: as people are squeezed and forced to spend more on 'needs', they spend less on eating out, entertainment, and other 'wants'. These are significant drivers of the service economy and they're being hit hard. So, what can they do? They can let go of workers or lower product costs to remain profitable, but they their quality declines and, in a market where people are pinching every penny and looking for quality for their dollar, they're less likely to go back. They can raise their prices, of course, but then they price people out completely and their profits still tank. I went to a decent steakhouse for my dad's 60th last week. I can't remember the last time that I went to one before that. \n\n6. Our politicians and news cycles focus on the most niche and irrelevant stuff because it'll stoke anger and get tongues wagging. This carbon thing is almost a non-issue, but our conservative leader is harping on about it like it's singlehandedly the death of the Canadian economy when it's a drop in the bucket. Trudeau focuses on 'equity' measures, hoping for a bit of cheap good press, while his efforts are, for the most part, just window dressing and the issues, while meaningful, are often not of paramount importance or even applicable to the vast majority of the people who elected him. Meanwhile, the middle class is pretty much evaporating as he speaks. The NDP keep talking about this in a pretty real way, for what it's worth, but Jagmeet Singh is giving off an increasing vibe of just being another fat cat politician beneath his rhetoric these days. Also, third-party trolls and screeching conservatives try to bury him on social media whenever he speaks... a lot more than other leaders as well, oddly. I wonder why? Oh yeah, the Greens exist and there's Quebec and the conspiracy theory party.\n\n\nUltimately, what we're experiencing is the revenge of the feudal system. Instead of paying rents to your lord and doing labour on the land for him whenever commanded to, you pay rent to your landlord now and go to work even when you're sick or when work hours are over because you have no union protection or are working 'on contract'. Unless we want to live in the armpit of nowhere, 95% of us are going to be wage slaves living hand-to-mouth, not owning our own property, and working to please our corporate overlords if current trends continue unchecked. While some of Canada's problems are unique, I fear that most aren't. As for me, I'm headed to the 'armpit of nowhere' where I can at least have a ghost of a chance of affording life.

We're living in a FAKE democracy. The OWNERS own this land and the politicians we vote for. We're only here until they push us out of their land. \nIndians are cheaper, so the owners will replace white people with them.

I am a legal landed immigrant. 18 years and counting. Been through hell to get re-certified back into my field….health care. I say NO. They came here on the idea to study and get back to their home countries. They need to get out. Yes….if they have skills to contribute to Canada and qualify….. then great. Otherwise BE GONE.

The word is out come here as an international student then get your Class A license begin working as a truck driver and apply for landed immigrant. I have had more than one close call with transports on the highway and am never surprised when I see who is driving.

First of all this is wrong and misleading, i respect and like this country as any other Canadian. Second this is country of immigrants ,if there were no immigrants you would only see the local Aboriginal Peoples. No white none other race the reality you immigrated actually colonized ki**** local community destroyed there houses and believe ,not that long check online check Canadian records just 2-300 years only not that long you captured the land probably ensl**** everyone. This the reality at least the immigrant today follow all rules made by government, respect people, we all are educated people we immigrated here to have better live and it's really ignorant that a person can just call you you don't belong here even we am equal tax payer if not more, payes triple amount of college fees than local people, work tirelessly follow the rules and then if something injust happens we are not able to express ourselves, what kind of humanity is this. Look into your hearts, if the Citizens do something wrong not follow the rules they are fine they still live here, if an immigrant do something wrong he is deported instantly. Do be ignorant don't judge a book by it's cover. Do discriminate.

PIA airline was banned because their crew would abandon their jobs when they landed in Canada

Dude!! Just listen to yourself, You have turned racist because of Trudeau and others who voted for him 2 times in a row, these people aren't responsible for it. Canada called them in for the funds they bring in which pushed the canadian economy, to study in the Bullshit programs which even Canadians wouldn't go for. Cause they do not have any options, the Canadian economy needed a cash boost to push the prices and you knew it excatly! you knew what would happen when half a million people would enter the country each year still you did it for your selfish motives, and now you’re blaming them and robbing them of their funds and Work permits. They come into the country with around $50k worth of tuition fee which an average Canadian doesn't even earn a year. They have bought their way in unlike the whites who robbed the natives of their land. Its you whos the real thief not them! Have the courage to see the real picture!!

That is not their land and to be frank you also have some land that belongs to Jewish people like Mecca and Medina. you better take your family’s from Israel ?? ❤❤

They came pretending to be students. Get the hell off our land

IMAGINE HOW THE NATIVES FEEL....YALL BEEN SQUATTED ON THEIR LAND FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS....

Decreasing productive farm land and increasing immigration sounds very off.

Farmland has been destroyed because generational farming has been in decline in PEI... If there is no one to farm the land, might as well sell it. Snidely Whiplash and his blatantly racist rhetoric misses the point. House them on the farms and let them work the land.... That would be very Canadian, no?

We have???? running Canada and flip flop every time the wind changes, It is time we get rid of these???? and get competent people with common sense to run the nation if not Canada will cease to exist and the USA will be pleased to take the land and our resources.....or Russia only to cross the Bering Sea

If Canada needs to stick to the rules of the land ok We are being tested,, if Canada caves the flood gates will be open!

THOUGHT EXPERIMENT: If 100K Canadian students went to India for university and demanded the same rights these Indian students are wanting, what would the Modi government's actions be? Methinks fire hoses and tear gas would be the answer. Non citizens visiting in any country have no ***RIGHT** to be in the country they are a guest in. They have alternatives, like going home and enriching their own native lands.

Palestinian land, Where is Palestine ?

Sorry Gaza is not their land. This guy doesn’t know history

PALESTINE haa right to return their land. Isreal is am apartheid state

It’s NOT THEIR LAND

As a matter of fact, nobody wants to leacv their land. Thats why they all come to Europe and USA..... Think it thru b4 you make statements.

Irony is when you realise that the immigrants themselves are complaining about mass immigration! Imagine what would happen if native American tribes complain about white people colonizing their land!!!

This is crazy.. Who cares . Just stop spending our money and giving land away ...

how hard to build a Fucking house . canada have so much land . third world countries build home so fast and very cheap 3 rooms a kitchen garage bathroom or 2 for 100 thousand $ including pluming and everything . whats the problem exactly .

I’ll be honest, as a Canadian I don’t mind sharing the land with new people. What I dislike is having to bend to stranger culture in my own land.\nWe are in Canada, if you’re willing to join then you should adapt to us. But quite frankly the real issue is the government and their ridiculous choices making it economically unliveable.

There is no country anymore. I knew trudeau name was bad news when the flakes voted him in 2015, but never imagined I will be looking to emigrate to another country because my country will vanish in front of my eyes and I will feel as a stranger in my own land. What the liberal government has done is criminal.

He is indigenous to that land, and as an indigenous person we should show respect.

you could feel the pain of First Nations of Canada when lost their land and their homes its time for the white minority to feel the pain ???

Their land? Gaza belongs to Egypt

What a hypocrite , it's not Palestinians land

It is not their land Israel gave them in 2005 the territory which belongs to Israeli fo for such Wentley and knowledgeable nation diplomats your in information vitality ?????❤️?

It is not their land, Israel gave them in 2005 the territory which belongs to Israel! For such a wealthy and knowledgeable diplomat your information lacks validity??❤️???❤️?

What a mess this video is. And did you cherry-pick the obviously mentally ill white folks for their perspectives? I would feel safer with the Indian youth you interviewed lol. They are the ones who will bust their asses to get to better places, have the better jobs and contribute to the society, not the entitled folks who seem to be under the influence at 11am in the morning. I am not Indian or living in Brampton, but this video is very annoying. “It feels more Indian than Canadian?” What exactly is Canadian? It’s a mix of immigrants. This country has a history of a few hundreds years and it’s all immigration. It was a brown land, then the Europeans came and it became whiter and now it’s becoming more brown again. Anyone gets to try living here as much as you or your ancestors did. At least these folks are not coming to ravage villages and burn kids in residential schools.

Everyone is well aware that what Israel is trying to do is make living in Palestine for Palestinians a miserable, awful existence so that they will leave as refugees and the Israelis can declare all land theirs and end the moral question of their own states existence at the expense of the Palestinians. If “the Arab world” starts taking refugees, Israel and evil wins. \n\nIf Hamas has made Israel such a dangerous and place to live, as we keep being told by the Israelis, why don’t the Israelis leave as refugees?

Everyone in this comment section is assuming their ancestors found new land in North America which was “uninhabited”. What hypocrisy. They probably thought the same when their ancestors arrived, so they shouldn’t even be complaining.

If only the country had open land and natural resources available...

Right.. Palestinians has the right to their land.. They are colonised
