The system is BROKEN. Tenants like this one are abusing the backlogs, landlords like this one want pitty when they are clearly MAKING INCOME on these rentals but are NOT paying taxes on those earnings yet, everyone else has to pay taxes on what little they earn. PLUS, there are landlords such as mine that has decided to take away my basement after renting the WHOLE house so he can build another unit so he can make more money but all he's offered is to keep my rent at the same price, no increase. I have to put up with losing space, parking, dealing with deathly noise for who knows how long just so he can make more money????? He should have made a clear contract around this plan he had to add another unit when he rented it to me. Sadly, landlords have become very greedy, I don't know where they get so much money to buy multiple homes but most families in Canada today can't afford the outrageous downpayments being asked to own a home!!!! I don't necessarily feel sorry for landlords. NOW pay taxes on your income from these homes and you have more of a right to complain I say.

Sorry to say but Canada is a joke!

I am Canadian and I'm sorry to say but they would have to drill into my brain remove any sense I have in there just even consider moving to the states

Im sorry at some point you have to say enough is enough

No sympathy for these cockroaches. Haven’t met one Canadian citizens in 2024 including the pervious Indian who immigrated here under the correct way and actually have useful skills & knowledge and actually blended with society . ABSOLUTELY HATE THESE NEW INDIANS WHO IMMIGRATED HERE. I feel sorry for you new Indian who are here no matter what you will always be hated. \nYou all literally brought racism to your selves. \nYou left to give yourself a better life , yet you bring your garbage ways to these countries - example : shitting on beaches with people there , dancing like a group of gorilla in the downtown toronto in a BUSY area where family shops and go with their children, crossing the subway tracks to reach the other side while trains are coming ! \nSTEALING FOOD FROM THE FOOD BANKS FOR THE HOMELESS! stealing liquor from the LCBO , stealing every car in toronto , most unhygienic people ever( no deodorant, always smelling they haven’t shower for days) ESPECIALLY THE WOMAN!… need I say more ? \nYou all brought racism towards your self good luck :)

Mexico didnt help at all on biden's presidency. Omg! They just started now or else we wont have more than 15 million in here. Here we go again CNN . Both illegals and economy are both #1. The USA citizens dont want to pay taxes any more on them no more federal, and state tax. No more illegals taking our jobs. No more freebies, no more free medical, no more free welfare, no more free programs. Were not paying for them for corporate greed. The democrats are always saying china. China, china, sorry no one wants to depend on china no more. We want our own made in USA. Instead of made in china.

Sorry to say, Canada Visa screening is equivalent to Somalia Visa screening. Why is it that such a Visa department cannot distinguish between fake and original admission letters? How come these agencies are operating from Canada.

Bravo that man says what 60-70% europeans think bit dont have the courage to say it and the number grows every day!!!! Sorry for my english

Your Nigerian accent is too thick making it difficult to believe anything you say sorry

It is 100% the Trudeau Government to Blame. As a born and raised, WHITE Canadian, I NEVER had an issue with Indian immigrants, of all the immigrants to Canada, they were the most respectful, and the most willing to “assimilate” to our culture. The recent influx of immigrants/migrants from India, are the most disrespectful, disgusting and violent people I have ever seen. Shitting where they want, throwing garbage everywhere, not learning English, disrespecting our wildlife, by trying to kill and eat everything, and the latest, hearing a march In Brampton where new immigrants/migrants saying “Get out British speakers, We are the real Canadians, go back to Europe”. My patience and hospitality has limits. Trudeau let this influx happen, assimilation is not possible on this massive scale. I feel sorry for those seeking a better life in Canada, but native borns are being left behind and are angry, so this is what you get. Sorry….just being honest

Many people came to the US illegally. They got themselves sorted and now they hate immigrants. I'm an American they say. As they should. Though many can't even speak the queen's English properly like flotus-elect but their status is legal. Some of them will get the boot even with their legal status. Having voted for Trump won't save them. Sorry. One tar brush and a bucket of tar.

Donal Trump is My Guy?????? It kind of feels like Stockholm syndrome... because he has racist opinions. But majority of this world, including all minority Races have levels of Racism ???? I'm A beautiful Lesbian and I still support Trump cause the Primary Focus should be, Who can Re-stimulate the United States....... I'm sorry to say, now is not time for female President when so many foreign countries are Misogynists and WAR looming over Our heads

Sorry to say this but I don't think she's so bright ?

Im canadian. I know it's a stereotype but people are just so nice in Canada. People do say sorry a lot, thank you, please. Lots of people hold doors for you, strangers love to small talk and are very friendly. It's pretty common that if someone drops their wallet, someone will return it to the owner. This is why I love Canada so much.

I am sorry to say. This is not India problem. This is a Punjab problem. I have a few rentals and these peoples from Punjab and North India ( delhi, haryana, UP) especially young ones don't follow any rules, they think they can do whatever they want and aren't afraid of laws.

Sorry to say I think u guys should stop saying this much about Montreal AOE because it may cause the Canadian them to tighten security at this Airport of Entry.

Like I explained, to those who say this will sour the us and canada's relationship. Americans don't care because even though Canada is less than 50% white, in they minds its still a majority white nation. That's why you don't see the BUILD A WALL etc, like you see with mexico, because even though the majority of immigrants crossing into the us from Mexico, might have been Mexican in the early 2000's, now that's not the case, 300k Colombians in one years, 175k indians, 75k turks, 150k, from Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Afghanistan, 500k from Russia and Ukraine since the war began, 200k from ecuador, 75k Chinese per year etc etc. And they scream, build a wall, and make mexico pay for it. Because mexico is less than 20% white. At this point with all the immigrants canada gives citizenship too, mexico is probably more white than canada at this point or will be in the near future. But y'all don't see as that, like i said y'all still think canada is a majority white nation when it's not, and mexico is a amarindiean majority nation when with all the immigrants canada has now, sorry, new Canadians mexico is probably just as white or even more so than canada. And for those that think I'm exaggerating, read the comments or the lack thereof, and the ones that do comments completely overlook the fact that they can use and are using canada to reach the us, and completely want to change the conversation to the ones crossing from Mexico, why? Are there or are there not using canada to cross into the us, and the thing is this people pick which country to use, as we choose which restaurant to eat at!!!!!!! Well, I like.... I would prefer..... today the majority choose mexico. Tomorrow as you just saw will be canada, will y'all also scream build a wall???

BUT ARAB WORLD DOING NOTHING. SORRY TO SAY?

Why people said this guy is brilliant or something else any one can say or use sweet words but the main point is action so I don’t think his word is not real when we came to fact because Saudi is the biggest enemy of Palestine than Israel period sorry to say that this is sad but it’s fact

Sorry to say looks like you lost your country.

Sorry to say they don't have a right to stay, like the use to be International Students when they done they have to leave. Specially all these newcomer ruin the City making mess all over....

When Canadians say “sorry” it’s not an apology and doesn’t mean taking blame. It means something closer to “it’s unfortunate…” or “I regret that…”. It’s just a politeness to diffuse any bad feelings — by sharing or acknowledging the sadness of the situation.So please don’t say Canadians apologize a lot. The word “sorry” has a much more nuanced meaning here. It’s actually remarkably difficult to know when a Canadian is apologizing, even for Canadians.

Sorry to hear you’re leaving Canada….I haven’t been watching your vids lately but will catch up. As someone born and raised in Toronto, I love being in Canada. I’m proud to be Canadian. Unfortunately, I am sad to say that we have been going so downhill ever since Trudeau and his gang of idiots came in AND the pandemic. It’s not really easy to maintain your finances here anymore, so many people are struggling in this country. You can’t really afford anything today, it’s so sad. I’m unhappy with what has been happening to our country and the state we’re in. As you said, problems have arisen and continue to plague this country, from crime, cost of living, homeless crisis and quality of life.\n\nIf other of my fellow Canadians are leaving this “great” country, that’s their choice. But I am staying here and going to deal with its problems. I love this country with all my heart, and I don’t think I would move anywhere to a different country. Yes anyone that moves out of here is your choice but….there’s no other great country in the world than here. I’m staying here and I think that’s a good thing. I will be here for the forseeable future and I love it here. I agree with your points and I wish you the best.

And most indians sorry to say they smell”VERYBAD”?

Ppl that are defending foreign workers are probably in on it and related to em sorry but we are over populated didnt come here to live here forever and take over low wage jobs all the companys are in on it just cos there getting paid to hire them thats why its hard to even find work not just low wage jobs but the trades industry aswell damn rights should be cut in half id say only 25 percent foreign and 75 percent actual candians workers couldnt even get my old job back cos of the ridiculous line for the jobfair at the time go to usa or mexico or germany why all just trying to get into canada and wine about it when your visas are done your English is hard to hear properly whats the difference tryna learn english go study another countrys language to have placement in other countrys having kids is not guarantee to be canadian just cos they born here just over 2 or 3 months just try sneak your way in for living here ?

Sorry to break it to you. But whatever information your country is saying about how to permanently stay in Canada is LYING TO YOU. Rather than protesting, you all should have read the fine print from the official CANADIAN government.\n\nYou are here on just an INTERNATIONAL TEMPORARY STUDENT VISA. Temporary does NOT mean permanent. Once that expires THAT IS IT. You go back to your home country and apply what you studied in Canada over there!\n\nThen you wait in line like everyone else to properly apply for permanent residence. And here’s another thing: if you gotten approved for PERMANENT RESIDENCE, good for you. But with that status, YOU CANNOT VOTE IN CANADA!\n\nStop ruining it for others that are trying to permanently come here the RIGHT WAY. You’re NOT GOING TO GET AN EXTENSION ON EXPIRED FOOD GOING BAD. AND YOUR TEMPORARY STAY IS NOT GOING TO EXTEND. You are guests in Canada according to your status. And you’re being extremely rude with your protests that’s not gonna get you anywhere. How would you feel if a guest at your house is being rude?

I like that you asked very common sense questions on which they were struggling to give a proper answer. They cannot just randomly put up signs without proving that you are being disciminated against or facing racism or hatred. You should be ready to prove it and if you cant, then sorry to say, but shame on the protestors to create false narratives.

Fix your countries as were full up.\nReason people move in large numbers is due to tyrannical giivernment and poor economy , bad giivernment needs to go one way or the other.\nturdeau has never spoken a true word since the day he was born.\nAll I can say is sorry, this is the way of the Wef Commies causing division around the world, but not for turdeau as you can take him with you.

I AGREE Indians who are going there are very poor from villages who sold their land with corrupt agents in Punjab or the rich middle class who never lifted a glass in their house with so many servants ,here they have clean their own toilets ,cook and wash they are never taught to say sorry or thank you. IT IS THE ATTITUDE NO DISCIPLINE see how they honk horn even the traffic light is red in India they cannot stand in a line making Q the cars do not adhere to lane. driving

Honestly the truth, am from the UK, and I am an Asian British citizen, been few times in Toronto Canada for a family visit. I have noticed some Indians in Canada are boastful and have no manners behaviour, sorry to say, But I am proud to say the indians here in UK are nice, polite, good manners and smart, same our recent prime minister Rishi Sunak, , I don't why its different in the Indians therein Canada? ??

Don't let International Students work... They got a student visa by showing they can sustain themselves while studying... So why need to work... If they need to work let them apply for a work permit while on a student visa for an annual fee but not more than 20hrs per week!!!\n\nCanada you are weak!!!.Sorry to say, but you made this problem for yourself... Not others ?

Most of Germans are really good people and friendly nothing against them but Germany itself is not immigrant friendly racism is pretty much on the rise ,low wages , little or no opportunities, my wife handles international clients and she says German client s are the worst in behavior they sound rude and entitled. If I'm a skilled person and want to move to Germany first and foremost you need to learn most difficult language in world and master it nothings wrong there but why would I when I could just go with English and move to other English speaking countries which offers more opportunities or atleast learn french that would be even more beneficial. Germany was known for it's low cost education system and other benefits it provide for students but sadly enough jobs are not there. If you want to attract international talent first atleast create an atmosphere for them but really sorry to say these but Germany feels hostile towards immigrants. Big MNCs are seeing all these and saying why are we here if we cannot hire international talent and slowly they are walking out of there and moving on to other countries ? and now you got serious issue here and people have only themselves to blame ?. Go taken out anti immigrant marches and go with conservative approach nothing new for Germany in the end German economy always ends up in toilet.

Yes, it's out of control now. I am not against internet student but they should know their limitations. Giving them working permit is a privilege already. How about us Canadian who pay their taxes. Spouses of international student shouldn't be given a working visa. Now we are having a hard time to find a job. Even me it's more than a year now that I can't find a job. I even applied in Tom Hortons but no luck at all. How are we going to survived? No more EI. I've been here in Canada for 32 yrs. We have to eat and pay our bills too. This is not fair. Govt. Underestimate the international student that they have accepted here in Canada. Liberal sorry to say big bullshit!!!!

I feel the pain, I agree they have spent so much money to come here, but if they have lied in their documents with fake schools or falsifying documents (if that's the reason of deportation) they truly don't deserve be here. Sorry to say so plain but laws are laws, I respected and respect Canadian laws. That goes for anyone not just indians

Some in UK sorry to say I find them very rude when they wait for bus they don't bother to queue they will jump in front you also so loud. I have been living in UK for last 50 years to me it doesn't look like UK anymore

I DON'T WANT TO BOTHER YOU, ACCORDING TO ALL PEOPLE MIGRANTS NOT ONLY INDIAN NATIONAL,,GOOD LIFE ON HIS OR HER HIS COUNTRY, WHY WANT TO WORK OR STUDENT HERE ON CANADA ,WHAT IS THE REASON. SO MANY AFTER ALL APPLYING ALL WELFARE AND WORK UNDER THE TABLE ,SORRY TO SAY THAT BUT TRUE

Sorry but foreigners don't get a say in Canadian policy.

I honestly think in the future, this place will be the capital of India ?? \n\nEverywhere u go is Indian its to much. im sorry thats the truth, and when they go, work anywhere they're starting take the job to themselves they wont even hiring any Canadian just Indian so what all say anywere Indian they go its like a cacruchs

Sorry to say this but it is really happening Canada looks like India now and the Caucasian people are becoming a minority !!! You can see it when you looks at any downtown in Canada !!! Some can not even talks in either English or French !!!

Sorry to say this, but a good many are Not in Canada to study and have created great resentment by hogging all the jobs where Canadian citizens are out of work. This sudden influx was ill planned by Canadian government. Backlash is brewing.

???…Sorry to say, but reap what you sow. America is about to f*ck around with Kamala and find out.

Sorry to say , how foreigners can stage a protest like this? As an Indian, I don't see anything wrong on Canada's part. Canada has every right to fix their immigration rules.

I'm sorry, but being persecuted somewhere else in the world shouldn't qualify you for Canadian citizenship. To be a Canadian citizen you should be a good fit with the rest of Canada (and existing Canadians should get to decide how that works). Also, it needn't be said, but how do we know this man is even telling the truth? Any guy can say that he craves intimate physical contact with other guys. It's just words.

I'm sorry to say but what is happening in Canada is socialism. As someone who lives in Brazil, I can tell you that the policies they are putting in place in first world countries, are pretty much the same as in third world countries. In other words, they are turning first world countries into third world countries. It's socialism plain and simple

I know indians that I consider good friends... However I have seen soo many disgusting 3rd world behavior from other indians that I've never seen before. Sorry to say it but many from your culture are just trash

Sorry to say this .But I was admire you before??\n But now it's your only motto to promote ongoing governence???

Sorry to say this, but free healthcare sounds like a joke.

Sorry for you. Canada is a lovely country. I am a Swede and its a disaster here to and many other European countries sorry to say. The whole world has difficult times now.

I’m a Korean American who has lived here my entire life since birth. I have lived in many other places and the thing about immigrants is they ALWAYS share the same traits wherever they go. \nI live in an affluent area and whenever the immigrants from poor countries come in they all do the same things…throw trash and litter everywhere, the attitude of “I made it just like you therefore I deserved to be treated like a king”..telling them to turn down the music at 2am and not understanding why so instead you are met with argumentative resistance instead of them just saying “hey we’re sorry won’t happen again, we don’t want to be that guy in this neighborhood. Our apologies” but nope. They continue to do it night after night and the audacity to even get angry. The crowding of all of their families in disrepspectful ways such as cutting in line while everyone else is patiently waiting, if there is free samples of food, they will group up and annihilate whatever they are offering not even caring about anyone else but their own. Leaving a very bad image for us East Asians when people from the red flag dragon nation come in droves. Being extremely loud in public while talking about petty nonsensical things most times but they yell and laugh not caring whoever else is around. Even if the room is quiet they have zero situational awareness, never putting things back when they grab them from stores or gym etc. they expect someone to pickup and do this for them. The entitlement ?….if something is on sale they don’t understand to take just one or two, they have to take the entire box so no one else can get it. \nI his list never ends and they don’t understand why people don’t want them living in their countries. It’s not just Germany it’s everywhere. \nHow do you expect people to like you when you make it difficult to do so.

After reading a few of these comments, the main take aways are, there are a lot of immigrants, things cost more, healthcare is a mess and inflation.\nI am sorry that things are hard, the costs of everything are up everywhere in the world so good luck in gentrifying other nations and making your problems their problems.\nIt pains me to no ends that after things get tough in Canada many are ready to jump ship for better softer areas where they will trash the place with their incomes creating inequality there as well and then blaming the mess that they will create on the indigenous people that they will abandon for better pastures.\n\nAs a Canadian of native ancestry I never had it anywhere as good as many of the people here complaining about their middle class woes.\n\nMaybe if you fought for a change, like more housing to bring down the prices and fought corporate greedflation and gouging, realizing that much of this problem, the attack on the healthcare services, much of it being done by the conservative governments, then perhaps you would not be so annoyed with Trudeau.\n\nHe is not helping the housing problem by not building the 2 million new homes that he said he would but NIMBY people are making this difficult. They want the charm of a nice middle class feel to their neighborhoods but when it comes to housing, they don't want to build affordable near them and then they complain with their rents are too expensive or the costs of things too high. \n\nI can't say I feel much pity or empathy with most of the people complaining about their lots in life because as far as I can tell, many natives would love to have your problems but the best that many of them can do is to live in their own lands, homeless, even on their own reserves because there is just not enough housing. Yet when the prices of housing was going up, many homeowners loved it, even though it meant that the poor, the actual poor and not you lot, were stacked like firewood into smaller and smaller rooms with no AC so it was hot in the summer and freezing in the winter and the slum lords are having a hey day. \nThe actual first nations people are homeless and being killed daily and are arrested for being poor daily but you lot think you have it bad. \n\nSorry, when non first nations people say that they will leave Canada because its not how they remember it when they were kids and its worse now so they will jump ship to gentrify other nations, I just shake my head and hold open the door as you leave the nation and wonder at your arrogance and egoism.
