Don’t mess with Allah once he is mad the whole universe is mad.

- Lack of affordable housing\n- High grocery inflation due to corporate price gouging\n- Healthcare system near collapse\n- Lowest worker productivity in G7 from lack of investment in robotics and infrastructure\n- Living standard on continuous decline\n- Economy in recession despite record immigration\n- Credibility of Canadian university degrees destroyed by diploma mills\n- Accepting more immigrants than the US despite having 10 times less population with no plan to provide housing, job or infrastructure.\n\nTo say we're heading in the wrong direction is an understatement. We're falling off a cliff and it's a long way down. It will take decades to recover from this mess even if we start making massive changes today.

I had 2 men on go to Toronto try and steal my bag ,off duty officer from uk said he saw it I moved so fast he didn’t get my bag and police officer tried to grab him white guy and black guy 29’s working together ,sit in handicap section safer ,I’m born in Toronto ,it’s the worst mess ever ,nothing like home ,Canadians born in Canada are just staying home ,look at union station dec 31 ,we were all scared \nWho are all these. Men ?\nWhat have we done crime is high I’m 70 getting picked in on a transit train at 2 om ,well I carry tasers now ,crime is out of control ,I know ,no where have I been more attacked since 10 yrs old ,all by immigrants strangely enough but union shows how many. Non men we had there mean men crowding and fighting ,well enough is enough ,we can’t even afford a place to live now. Because 65 per cent investors own all our housing ,you can have it ,I’m leaving

Immigration needs to slow down.. Born and raised and it's. A mess now. Ontario is like India now.\n\nCost of living in Canada I 1985 to 95 it was cheaper than the US, UK etc\n\nShortage of housing is due to to multi family families in one house that have 6 working adults to pay a higher mortgage vs a 2 parent two child family (ownership for them no longer exists in Canada sadly)

I e considered so many times to leave to another country. I really dislike winter. I can’t stand any cold below 50* degrees. Living paycheck to paycheck is no joke especially when I don’t get pay on bc of payroll mess up. Having high level\nof stress and food is GMO. I believe living in a tropical climate is better where I can grow my own food and be outdoor enjoying nature. Unfortunately we don’t have job or the financial freedom to make such moves. Good luck ❤

Amen!!! Stop the occupation. It's messed up how the Jews, who were killed by the millions during the Holocaust are now the one's who do the same to the Palestinians. We all know they want the Palestinians out of Gaza so they can build beach homes. It's absolutely disgusting.

Completely fair that the cold isn’t for everyone. If you don’t like winter activities, there’s literally no point living here. For me, I could not live without skiing , skating, ice fishing and just messing around sledding, snowball fights etc. and other fun winter activities and festivals. There’s something about coming in after a cold winter day, sitting by the fireplace and drinking hot chocolate (not to say Canada’s always cold as summers are extremely hot). In terms of your other points, very debatable, as the grass isn’t necessarily greener on the other side and every country have their problems, but to each their own. Best of luck with everything :)

Let them in who cares America is already messed up let them in they work harder than the average American doing the jobs they don't want it happens in the UK in Italy and Spain it's a invasion sad

Your once great country is sold out sabotaged .\nThrump knew axactly what he was doing in preventing this mess...

If Americans want this immigration issue to STOP, tell Washington to STOP messing in other countries internal affairs. This is the result of US foreign policy.

Thank you Biden.. this is your disgusting amazing mess you brought to this nation. This is not a interruption but a dangerous entry without disregard. These people have no right to just come in without being checked. But the media will never show this because all democrats and some Republicans rhinos are part of this sick mess.

I am here 10 years. One thing that was really shocking to me was how many people were sheeple right when the pandemic happened. LOVE to listen to what they are told to do! People refused to socialize and try to reach out. Young people. Well guess what? That was the beginning of bad news. I also have been surprised at the amount of people who assume all Americans are like Trump and have messed up attitudes towards Americans. I am looking forward to a better Canada. A place where maybe people can start coming up with friendlier ways of living life.

Your comments on the real estate mess may be incorrect. Critics believe that over investment by corporations trying to build rental portfolios is responsible, especially since at current prices immigrants are being priced out of the market and so are not responsible for these prices increases. Additionally prices and material inflation has slowed new home construction and new building construction is historically at an all time low relative to demand.

There leving because we had to much immigration along with the liberals that created this mess, cost, traffic, low wages ect.. all a part

In otherwords, we're not having any of them in our country. Just like Jordan kicked out the PLO into Lebanon, where they messed up that country, they aren't going anywhere because nobody wants them.

They mess up their own country and now they mess up The UK \nEnoch Powell,Nick Griffin and Nigel Farage was right all along but The Tories Labour and Liberal Parties have no backbone only intetested in their own power and money game

I live in NYC, and have been to Canada at least four times, but the last time I was there was quite some time ago. I always had a good thought about Canada, because it seems like some of the problems we have in this city, Canada also has in some way. Right now the city is a complete mess; at post pandemic and with a bit of a recession and a noticeable increase in groceries to basic things like cat food and tissues. That's not the biggest problem, it really is the legislation or lack of for people who not care for themselves. Those homeless people are almost not helpable and I don't feel threatened by them, but other people definitely do. The way the government has handled these undocumented migrants is a complete disaster and couldn't have come at a worse time. We have a serious housing crisis as well, and people can end up paying for high rent, for not the best places, but they want to live in a certain location. The migrants are coming in at about 60k in the last two weeks. You see mothers with little kids or babies selling candy all over the trains and it's becoming too much. Many see it as a form of child abuse or exploitation and we do not respect it at all. I think they feel we are weak and will just pay double for something we don't need. At one station today I must have be approached 3 times and interrupted 2 times while using my phone. It's just too much and we already have a lot of immigrants here, so I'm not sure where these people believe they will find any meaningful employment and the cold is coming. I wasn't born here, but came legally as an infant. I think the border situation is a disaster and it's obvious to a lot of people that the government lets things happen that will definitely effect citizens in the next couple of decades. The city is crowded enough and I do not know where this is all going, people do not want undocumented migrants house a few hundred feet from a childrens school. I just don't understand how they let this happen....I guess this is how Biden does things and all the groups that cheered buses pulling in when it first started are dwindling down....they just want them passed on to someone elses responsibility, but wouldn't want them as neighborhors necessarily. It's a lot of hypocrisy here. Canada seems better in some places, and the same in others.

What’s wrong with them. Stay in your own country. Y’all are messing up ours more than it already is

I'm heading back to Brazil soon, I can't afford a house here, everyone is a f@gg0t, cities are a mess, and it goes on.

Thank the politicians for this fkin mess!Worst is still to come...

Canadians are frustrated with how inept our leaders are and it looks like there are no capable people to run this country. We are fed up with how we desperately need educated ppl to fill positions particularly in the health care arena and yet immigrants with those talents are sidelined. It is a miserable mess.

Dont mess with the Saudis. I think Middle Eastern politics is a comprehensive game of chess that has been going on for centuries. The western world cannot comprehend the game because it missed the first 100 moves. All they can see now is who is left and not what moves got the ME there. The chaos is not as chaotic if you live it daily and they have been.

dude, look at your hair, you're a mess.

As long as they never mess with others or hell fires will happen. No excuses.

Please Don't mess with Isreal,just saying!

I am an Indian and this is insane. I keep seeing people from different parts of the world talking $hit about the US, muzlims hating Americans. If that's the case, then why are you people dying to go there???‍♀️?‍♀️?‍♀️\n\nDear Americans, you have every right to protect your borders. Better secure them, so that another 9/11 shouldn't occur. We Indians are suffering from illegal migration from Bangladesh & Myanmar,and these migrants are responsible for all r@pes and harassment incidents all over our country. They dont love our countries. They just want to make us the same mess they were in their homeland.???

If you want an amazing history podcast about the entirety of the Palestinian/Israeli conflict from the 1800’s to 2016, I absolutely recommend “Fear And Loathing In Jerusalem”. It’s a very thorough history and is about as non partisan as you can get on this issue. I really leaned a lot and it helped open my eyes to the entirety of this mess.

Why should the Arab world lift the weight when the mess was started by the west! Clean up your own mess

Y going to Europe countries n making mess

Palestine is looking more and more the the moons surface. They should’ve never messed with Israel. There’s consequences to be paid.

UK has brought this on to itself by creating all the mess in Middle East with Jordan and Iran.Iranians have been dealing with this for the past 45 years. \nIranian Jew

Arab world do remember the last time when Jordan allowed Palestinians into their country, they tried to overthrow the King of Jordan…..they just don’t want this mess to come to their countries and hypocritical enough to say such big words.???

Why is it the Arab problem to serve the un and their gigantic mistake? Clean your own mess

Cop out! They still are funneling money for them to attack Israel. Back in September there was no blockade no aid needed no issues until they messed with Israel.

you need to also tell them to stop messing with Israel until then

Just another way of saying we don't want them because they mess up every country they have gone to and we don't want them to mess up ours.

All these Torontonians commented when it's them who caused this mess by voting Trudeau

That question is messed up in so many ways..

So, tell them stop messing with the Jew people then.\nIt is not Israel attacking them.\nIsrael is defending them self from extermination.

All western financial systems are due a heavy crash they can not keep up with such vast amounts of people coming in and as in Europe the vast mass of illegals who can not work sucking up the benefits system raises taxes and demand for housing is shooting prices up. \nThe western governments went into money printing mode that creates inflation raising prices on every day goods and foods this can not be sustained for much longer before it all comes crashing down, This also affects places in schools and medical wait times with more people flooding in to the point in the UK where i live you can be waiting up to 5 hours for an ambulance and 3-6 months for an operation.\n25 years ago you could get a 2 bedroom house here for around 25k now you are looking around 150k-250k the kids born here have no chance of owning a home and most end up staying with parents up to their 30s-40s, Even private landlords are under threat from government buyouts that end up housing migrants and not our citizens its a real mess that has no signs of slowing.

I have had an Invitation Letter from my Elder bro since October and until now, I just can't succeed to create an account or submit my Application....becuz of this messed up IRCC Portal. Why do I keep getting the IRCC portal and not the GCKey???? I clicked your link and no matter which other link I clicked, it keeps taking me to IRCC Portals

What a mess !!!

Housing is very cheap for those that bought and/or rented and stayed 15+ years ago. Rent controls keep rents cheap (for them) and people in place as they do not want to move and take a higher rent and/or higher mortgage payment. This hides the problem until you find yourself evicted , break up or some event forces you into the housing market and then you get clapped.\n\nThis is an issue around the world in most developed countries. This is because the rich have optimized the system. Basically if you compare the world economy to a game of Monopoly. Being a young person is like joining the game with your $200 of start money and going against the winning player that owns all the properties and basically won but has not yet driven everyone to bankrupt or a rage quit! \n\nRich people are finding the way to underdeveloped countries to take safe haven from the mess they caused, only to start the cycle all over again driving up land prices in placed like Mexico. We have an issue when the Canadian, Australian etc dream is to buy property, get renters and move to central / south America.

Good, everyone else is sick of you guys flooding everywhere here and making a mess in Canada. ?

Don't mess with the chosen people of God of Israel,isac and Jacob,when you keep denying Israel,wait and see the wrath of God. Remember that.

Basically he said - they have the right to die, because we don't want them... Palestinian refugees who has been taken by Egypt and other arab nation in the past made a mess in those countries.They could take refugees till the war is over to save lives, like Poland,Moldova and other countries did to save lives of Ukrainians ! Arab world can save lives, but they don't care.......

Just sad that they can walk right over and we all are paying for it. This president has turnedbeveytjing into a mess. Do u think its right for the workers to have no help and to have to go through this?

As a Canadian , I see most people trying to survive on a day to day bases these day's. \nWe can blame Black Face Justin Castro Trudeau & the Liberal Communist Party for this mess. One can add the NDP the ( New Dumb Party ) as well.\nWe have dumb stupid people in these party's. \nThey have made Canada in to a 3rd World Country.

Canada is a mess. All they build is luxury condos that most can't afford. Food is sky high, and greedy politicians don't seem to care as long as they keep growing their own bank accounts. The corruption is starting to really show.

if you destroyed a land.. it is your responsibility to rebuild the land.. it is your responsibility to take care of the refugees. not others to spend money and cleanup your mess after that massive destruction and you get away with it. erm.. faulty thought process.
