They are immigrant,they are not citizens of your country

I don’t know where you got your information but Russia is not what you said. I know that there is Russophobia. They have strict immigration laws which is good. They are not as rascist as most so called western world countries. I love Russia ?? ??❤

Since 2014 the Greek government have been paying these illegal immigrants out of their own pocket, taxpayers money, for example an illegal immigrant gets €700 max on benefits while the Greek only gets €400… people are fed up of these leaches

immigration is fine, illegal immigration is the problem

How can you force a flood of immigrants upon a nation and expect a net gain for that country economically? How does the open door accommodating host culture (Canada) expect to survive meaningfully without irrevocable demographic & cultural change?

Statistics show that half of the new immigrants in the photo op at the end will have voluntarily left Canada within the next 5 -10 years. Many to the US, and most of the rest back to their home countries, as they will find that Canada is not a place to come to to get ahead. Canada is over-hyped for sure. I know, I came to Canada and then left after 10 years to the US, where opportunities are far, far better. Save yourselves a decade of wasted time and come to the US straight away.

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?

Mass, Uncontrolled Immigration...\nForced MultiCulturalism...\nExtreme Diversity...\nThis is crazy! Yes, We must be deadly crazy!!!

Don’t let the me silence us! It’s not fair we have to cater to the immigrants while Canadian born citizens are being left by the wayside. Continue standing up!!!

Its not anti immigration they will turn canada into their birth country, make it ulgy and non Canada

This is not a loophole. even if you come on a boat with no visa no passport, you will still be given asylum. You are just inciting general hatred towards immigrants in Canada just because you are dumb enough to not know the difference between asylum and immigration. Just do better.

Anti-immigration has not just risen, like the seasons it fluctuates up and down but the graph line has always been increases. Our questions have not been answered and indeed have been repressed under the guise of racism, that old label thrown at those who dare to talk out loud.

If being far right against uncontrolled immigration so be it notice this dont happen in poland canada uk have got weak leaders it needs to stop

Its simply unsustainable. Most countries cannot even help their own people, so why are they letting more illegal immigrants in the country. The governments are doing this so they can have more control, raise taxes, and gain more power. They need to focus on a strategy for teaching our citizens and legal immigrants how to thrive

I thought the whole population of Canada was immigrants.

Assimilation is the ONLY way immigration works. Otherwise we we get carbon copies of the problems that made people leave their homeland in the first place.?

Because the immigrants took advantage of the host country's generosity and started imposing their own belief systems on the natives?

Nuts to immigration. Close the doors.

How is bringing in tens of thousands of Uber drivers and people with no skills supposed to make Canada prosperous ?? The hard-working taxpayers are supporting these immigrants and we are being drained!

Immigrants aren’t the problem, Canada is a country of immigrants from day 1, it’s the immigration system we have that is broken.

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 aging population theory requires immigrants to maintain gdp. The problem is a huge lack of government assistance with housing, healthcare, social services, ect. This seems to be increasing homelessness globally to the point laws are being passed to combat homelessness now. Crazy times when the solution of increasing government aid and assistance is rejected year after year

A better title would have been why we have massive immigration.. Even though we have housing and health care problems ?

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.

Did you see the video of the police cowering in the mall from immigrants?

Erosion of National Identity\nBy 2036, immigrants are projected to make up about\n30% of the Canadian population. By 2050, roughly half\nthe country’s population will be non-white. In some\nareas, these projections have already been reached or\nsurpassed. In Brampton, Ontario, 65% of the population\nis South Asian. Richmond, British Columbia, became\nmajority Chinese in 2016. In Quebec, the French lan-\nguage is in serious decline because of large scale immi-\ngration.\nIf immigration targets remain unchanged, there will\nbe a dramatic change in the country’s ethnic, cultural,\nand linguistic composition. Many citizens, both native-\nborn and immigrants, will be uncomfortable with a\nchange at this rate and scale to the country they know and\nlove. To make matters worse, the successive federal gov-\nernments, which have overseen Canada’s policy of large-\nscale immigration, have never consulted Canadians on\nwhether they actually want this kind of change. -Druthers

I have been in the US on first as student and then on h1b for past 10 years, paid atleast $800k in direct taxes, my 2 kids are born here, but still process to Greencard/Citizenship is a distant dream!! Legal Immigration in this country is Broken!?

the problem is not the immigration itself, it is the kind of immigrants a country is letting in!

Canadians complaint about immigration, but they should know the cycle always go back and now they “suffer” as the natives suffered when their families came to “conquer” the new country. Nothing is for free

All this immigration law in recent years so disgusting it should be stop right now and get rid of those illegal immigrant The prime Minister he is a joke

Stupidity. Look at Britain. France. Sweden. Canada needs to carefully vet all immigration. And those that are Islamist should be near the bottom of the list. Islam and a free liberal democratic way of life are like oil and water. If that triggers you do some research. Study the Quoran and the Hadiths. Look at Islamic history. And ask yourself how many Islamic countries are free democracies. Zero. Why?

The government wants us to be poor. The poorer we are the more reliant we are on these elites. That's why the government gaslights us about immigration.

? false, it’s anti illegal immigration, not anti immigration

Immigration with India needs a FULL STOP.

Im from Germany and what most people dont know/realize is that for instance Putin not only causes masses of immigrants due to his hostile wars but also advocates false advertisements about german immigration laws/benefits and lures these immigrants to Germany via the Belarus route in order to destabilize the west.

It is on the rise because current immigration has been weaponized against the local population + NGOs behind the scene are bringing the worst people to our shores, undocumented and with a goal to replace us all.

There are bad leaders sending their immigrants to destabilize our Countries it depends on how to have transparency in the asylum seeking

In coming times countries will refrain from accepting immigrants for many reasons . Only people from very very special fields like health care will be accepted.

Immigrants are coming from failed countries. It is not Canada's responsibility to save failed countries.

Probably the same as the UK, the liberal elite who aren't affected by high immigration want to maintain their publicly funded lives

Because the illegal immigrants - NOT THE LEGAL IMMIGRANTS - are not protecting or respecting our children, our women, our eople, our culture, or our lives.

put everything back to 2015 levels. no back doors to immigration, no workers for business except agriculture.

Canada is all immigrants country. Now that they are in don't allow other poor souls to come in.

Yesterday, the CNE Job Fair was 5,000+ people pack... The funny thing is, these people are Black South Asian... So yes, that's too overwhelming to the immigration law...

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.

Go asian go America continent because that continent is for immigrants first Europeans migrated there now its asian time

Immigration from countries ravaged by climate change was predicted 20 years ago. It was known that this would happen. It is happening to all countries in the northern hemisphere. Its reality. Humans will just have to adjust and not resort to cruelty.

Legal immigration is great but slowly and the cream of the crop who want to become citizens will BUILD a Better society But Leftist Democrats want immigration for power not the people so they want millions to rush the border

Ridiculous, 2nd biggest country in the fkin world and it has population problems. Is it the immigrants' fault? Or something else behind this? I'm an immigrant from Vietnam. Am I part of the problem? I've worked my ass off in this country, paid insane amounts of taxes. Do I not deserve a place? I came here alone, not with a village. But some people are doing that and causing major damage. And I get bunched up with them and have to suffer the problems I did not cause.

This only applies to Arab immigrants :) and maybe Indians but Ukrainians are fine that's what the west thinks just racism
