Because of statistics and common sense.

Because common sense

Makes zero sense that this can happen with no consequence

Why? Common sense

If europe and uk were saying this then i would have supported it but non native Canadian are telling this which doesn't make sense? ?\nCanada and us for everyone

When the rules don't make sense what's the point of following them I'm sorry

Don't trust anyone arguing for immigration without addressing common sense concerns about it

In Montréal, before the 2000s, it was easy to move whenever we wanted and rents were affordable. We had a deep sense of belonging in our city districts and crime was low. Now everything has gone. Population has been replaced with foreigners of incompatible cultures. We never thought things like that could happened before the 2000s. No one asked for that. Thanks trudeau!!!!

I don't understand why common sense people in, America don't understand that we don't have the housing for, Americans, much less, millions of immigrants as well as other resources all people will need.

seems like living in ONTARIO makes no sense

Canada just needs to be more picky on what immigrants we bring in. Can't bring in the ones that will struggle to live here and be more taxing to the system. This is common sense to all countries.

6:57 huh? He made no sense.

How do migrants go through the US and got to Canada and go back to the US, it makes no sense

I get that there is a huge problem in Canada with immigration but this interviewer asks too many leading yes/no questions. Can't really get a clear sense of what the interviewees actually feel and have experienced as opposed to what the interviewer wants to hear.

Doesn't make sense ? ?

This is how mafiaa form, when people need services for common sense things that govt wont handle

So many people come and commit crimes, ignore our laws and live off the government. We needed certain skilled people and I could care less what country they come from as that immigration is crucial to our economy and population. Right now there isn't enough housing for our own citizens. It's irresponsible. If families want to sponsor an immigrant family that's awesome. The rest of us want our tax money actually going to our citizens. That's not racist, that's common sense.

Screw Landlords, say it with me investment property is a risky portfolio and shouldn't be used for retirement at least in an active income sense. Good on tenants putting the screws to a class of people that shouldn't exist.

They can sense something is coming

Why because we are bringing in to many people. We need to take care of the people we have here already. Common sense people. But our media will say it's racism.

Rising in UK and some other EU countries as well. I know this is not going to end well and it’s just common sense. The resource is limited. More people coming in meaning less “cake” for everybody.

If theres BEEN no payments, then yeah it makes sense to evict. But if theyre expecting 41k monthly that would be ridiculous. Dont get how she stacked that many months without paying rent and didn't get kicked out alot sooner. Police could remove her

Canadians are not against immigration they are against miss-management by the corrupt Liberal/NDP government. This video is misleading in its investigation. Neither clearly shows what the cause is and ignores the illegal immigration that was encouraged by the Liberal government in the first place and doesn't propose a common sense solution to it.

Pretty much any human with common sense can understand why

Private banks, Monopoly, politicians who put foreign interests first and no government oversight caused all of our problems, and immigration just made it worse.. why are people blaming immigrants who were lied to about Canada for cheap labour and not our useless politicians? Someone please make it make sense

I can't stress the importance of thorough tenant vetting in the rental process enough.....for the average landlord (not as sophisticated) can greatly reduce the risk of these situations by having someone competent, thorough, experienced, and with (hard to define) Spidey -like senses help in the process.

The absolute lack of basic common sense is the main reason for the demise of western civilization. How is it so hard to find basic common sense among the leaders of countries that have the best universities in the world.

& as usual media has no comment on the lack of common sense in government policy bc they do the governments bidding

Disingenuous journalism.\n\nAnti-immigration is a binary term, and you’re using it to characterize anyone who is critical of a terribly implemented set of immigration policies that are resulting in bad outcomes for both the new immigrants and current citizens.\n\nSure, the issue isn’t with immigration… the lack of infrastructure and services and housing is the problem. This doesn’t mean reduction of immigration numbers isn’t a part of the solution. It’s common sense that if I only have enough food and space for 8 people then I’m not inviting 20 to my party…. The issue isn’t with get-togethers the solution is to only invite 8 until I can accommodate 20. \n\nSo stop being dense about this.

This would only make sense to me if we weren't sitting on stolen land and if the West didn't mess up other parts of the world for our benefit. People are suffering and escaping situations precipitated by our governments, and we don't acknowledge our luck in being born into our circumstances. Canada, Australia, and the US can't whine while sitting on stolen land and an extensive history of colonialism. This intolerance wouldn't be as hypocritical and selfish coming from citizens of most other countries.

I'll admit I could be more educated on this but also why is running to America the solution. Watch our news. They use this for political gain. Year after year this happens and it's always that they changed a law somewhere. I don't know. I'm not trying to sound ignorant but unless they pretend to turn them a way but actually let everyone in, it just doesn't make sense to me to run through an American boarder. It sucks and obviously this is their better choice when they didn't have a choice maybe but still. If what we get to see and hear about what happens to them once they're here is true how much better is the choice to come here lately. I don't know but I couldn't imagine and I don't pretend to understand their hardship. I can only hope they find a place somewhere in this world. Boarders only exist on maps when it's life or death.

common sense

We used to have a common sense approach by bringing in immigrants based on how many we could handle bringing into the housing market and healthcare, as well as getting high skilled workers. That approach is now gone because we are bringing in over a million immigrants under marc miller.

Everyone here talking sense, look out, the government is watching ? YOU are the enemy

Communist News Network. It makes a little more sense now, huh?

because why do only the white countries need to take in immigrants with no limits. why? it just doesnt make sense like idc you are fleeing some prosecution in your country

Too many immigrants. The left tries to silence common sense people from speaking out by labeling anyone who rightfully wants immigration numbers to drop to sustainable levels as racist etc. This narrative must stop. Common sense and the well being of actual Canadians must once again prevail! Tax dollars to get Canadians off the streets not to house thousands of immigrants in hotels.

too many coming in at once do not have the chance to assimilate into our culture. too many at once creates a shadow country where pple stay with the familiar and of course want to replicate what they are familiar with. this isnt rocket science its common sense. being against current immigration practices doesnt mean anti immigrant. in a way everyone is being set up here.

I like Diana, she makes a lot of sense, Ethan is further stoking xenophobia in already narrow minded Canadian population.

You guys voted for the current government. Accept the consequences. Otherwise, cast your vote wisely in the next election. Voted your choice and cry on result is just pathetic. Learn from Asia, practice moderation and not political correction. Is just common sense.

Students are students, they need to return back after education. Why a sense being created that they can stay here forever. And then there are ghost schools. Immigration needs to be reigned in at the same time.

You could thank justin trudeau for his policies\nJustin must go\n❤ Pierre for prime minister❤ We need common sense?

Make no mistake. Canada is not the US or Georgia Meloni's Italy. The sense that the immigration of the last half century has been overwhelmingly positive for the country is widespread outside of a few predictable nativist Anglo enclaves. The key problem is the disconnect between the demands of employers and the labour market situation on one hand, and housing on the other. The national and provincial governments abandoned any involvement in housing beyond zoning issues in the 1970s. The provision of affordable housing can never be done by private developers alone with our subsidies or coordination with the state. There are simply too many problems of market failure. Instead what they can provide is more and more higher-end housing. The national government has never connected the various aspects of immigration so that now Canada's largest cities simply cannot cope with the number of incoming migrants.

This makes Zero sense. How are immigrants to blame ?. White nationalism masked as Xenophobia

They want america to be like the same country they run away from Makes sense doesn't it??

Somebody's out to ruin America and whether it's China Russia or the Democrats somebody's winning this makes no sense

So that's why Canada revoked all online ETA visas for Mexican passports. Now that makes sense!

Issues of toronto are not new. I was in toronto for few months in 2010 and I felt, it doesn't make sense to be here. This is why people prefer USA.

I got laid off 5 weeks ago ( no renewal of contract).. after 7 years working for that NFP.. I applied for snap and unemployment… while applying for jobs( social worker field)… first, they ask for so many documents… including my bank account….( again I was laid off .. not fired nor left my job, nor finding reasons not to work all those years ), department of labor had a mandated zoom meeting to discuss what I needed to do 4 weeks after I was laid off( like i don’t know)… I ve been working for years and paying taxes… a lot of them in NYC, I was also told that I have to show what I am doing to search for work and eventually should take a job( even if the salary is low..ridiculous)… I was also informed that I may get a call from investigator from DOL..they may call individuals receiving unemployment benefits($441 a week after taxes?)… to verified that I was searching and applying for jobs( even though I enter my activities related to work weekly on their website…..)….. meanwhile… people with 0 legal documentation are entering the US and living here, free snap, free housing, free health insurance!!!! Lala land!!!! Can’t wait for this non sense to stop!!! Every corner of NY , you see families begging for money. Food…I feel bad as a human being, but refuse to help or I ll be joining them too… welfare system needs to change too! The politics NEED to change!!!All the best !

Exact same issue in Australia. High immigration levels despite the ongoing housing crisis and cost of living crisis. Local people are living in cars and tents, but the government wants to bring in millions more foreign immigrants. It doesn't make sense and it's not racist to say so.
