Please stay away from Canada I moved here and I regret it every day. I'm a citizen through my parents and getting my certificate took YEARS which stopped me from being able to go to school or work which means years of my adult life wasted that could have been put to much better use for something that wasn't even my fault. I also lost good opportunities too because of it!!!! Not happy especially since I genuinely needed the money. I won't forgive Canada for that. Also everything here is really expensive and the selection is just not very good. Also work opportunities are not as good as in the US. Anyways I finally got my certificate and got my life started up again just over 2 years ago, but I still often think of returning to the US after just being here for 4.5 years. I now warn some of my US friends not to go to Canada just for the hype if they mention it. I also know of a friend who moved here and left after 1 year, they came to hate it here.

I like Firstpost because she usually says it like it is. But this time she’s way too biased and went straight to play victim. Doesn’t she know how in places like Australia and Canada thousands of Indian people on temporary visas have taken to the streets to protest that these countries want to “deport” them when their visas are expired and they decided to overstay their welcome? Also, Indians used to be pretty quiet and kept to themselves… At least where I live! But lately they’re more and more unruly, and act like they own the place. A good dose of self-awareness wouldn’t hurt her.

In indian 11/2 & 21'2 apartment 10-15 people up-down sleep, share with many, pee or poo use the toilet outside in the field or jungle, they drink cows' pee. In Canada people use the toilet inside and clean it each weekday, no food is thrown outside, and No clothing is dry or washed inside by hand. so indians can't destroy beautiful condos by doing all. The balcony can't filled with food or fill with bad stuff, balconies are for sitting and flowering. Before moving out apartment should be as clean as taken, The Indian left the apartment dirty, and damages with denied all. They're only busy making money not to clean any apartment, In this situation which landlord will accept them to get rent after suffering all the damages. Indians frequently move out without or not respecting the lease term. They never stayed long. Each year, 2-3 - 6 months they left doing all trouble with landlords. Which landlord will rent the frequent flippers with no good credit or references to the flippers?

The government of India should find ways to use the human resources locally. There has been a widespread anti-Indian sentiment in the West and in Australia. Behavior and cleanliness are a big issues when it comes to Indians. The government must treat all its citizens equally and make them to love the country and work for uplifting the nation. Hindutva is not good for the future of this wonderful nation. Let's wake up!

Now all big Indian Techies and other influential and powerful Indians in abroad should come forward to give voice for Indians living abroad particularly who all hold legal visas like students and other legal permits etc and if possible they should create a fund to help our Indian students in financial, legal and other distress - may be given as loan. Influential Indians in USA should have used USAID program to channeled some funds to Indian students - no one wants to take risk but want to be good in American's Book! All big shots of Indian origin throw a little money may help these helpless students or may create like sovereign fund to help Indians who needs help in abroad!

When I was delivering pizzas As poor as I was I always carried More than enough correct change In paper & in coins Even as poor as I was I always made sure That I had more than enough correct change While delivering pizzas & then! If my delivery was on time & I was courteous & friendly I'd maybe get a tip Sometimes a really good tip! & I myself almost stopped getting deliverys To my home Cause everytime lately I was told! To tip! Not asked! Told to! & after a few times of using my debit & being told to tap a tip It started rubbing me the wrong way! So after more than a few times Of that happening I now started letting my girlfriend answer the door As she very rarely tips Unless our food came At a very reasonable time & if the driver was courteous & friendly & also cause She is not shy about saying I'm not tipping you! I work hard for my money! You took way to long! Or! If our food came cold! Cause you're very late! So if the bag wasn't still warm She check what'sa inside that paper bag & if it was no longer warm No tip was given! So if you want to deliver hot food Make sure! That you come on time & you have more than enough change + having enough change Helps get you your tip Cause common sense rules! Duhhhhhhhhh! & that's my tip to you Always carry more than enough change Or Not! The decision is yours to make As I always made good tips While never asking for a tip + I was always on time Never taking 4 orders I'd take 3 or less & I always made sure To thank that person as well Who just tipped me Soooooo haaaa! Put that in your pipe & toke on it Haha

It's good they were treated like criminals.... spending money in crores to enter USA...it wud hv bn better if they wud hv used this money in India n started some good work.

Stick with XRP and BTC as much as you can guys. If everyone sells when it starts to fall, which at one point it will, the dream may be lost because of it being too volatile for companies to get behind. just remember where it's going and don't be put off by short term fluctuations and don't facilitate this dream into becoming a nightmare. The coinbase thing will undoubtedly be replaced by another incident but it will always correct to higher until it's mooned naturally. Don't give up on it and start day trading it, it will take too much time and concentration. Remember XRP is probably bitcoin part 2. It is quite unfortunate that the most popular word lately amongst crypto enthusiasts and traders alike is “hodl.” This concept of “holding on for dear life” in itself may not be a bad idea but why hold on to an investment instrument which could make you some money, or make you very miserable tomorrow? Making a good profit off crypto is easy if and only if you can find the right entry point and exit point in your day trading. Someone I discovered that has tremendously helped me with this is Mr. Ivan Patrice. He has a system which is so effective it amazes me. I have been using his signals and strategies and have turned out a very impressive profit over the last two months. I would suggest him for beginners and even more experienced traders who have a problem turning in a consistent profit. His ¥OU-TUB£- Ivanpatrice. Also on t£l€gram\n\n\n\n\n,.,.,.,.,.,.,.

Stay in India, create a startup with good idea and sell it to Canada OR US , you make way more money this way. India is having huge talent pool. Use it, help poor PHD holders by giving them some work, instead of spending 5 million rupees for useless degrees in foreign lands.

THIS ENERGY could be used for GOOD in their countries.... Can't DO THAT....... THANX JOE BIDEN & Ms. Harris.........Barrack.....DEMS....

Lets keep i real. The desire that most immigrants have is homeostasis which is the familiar. All humans do this. Individually indians are usually smart and decent people. But in groups ( and this doesnt just include indians) you get this group thinking that is prejudice against anyone who isnt one of their own. Im fairly certain its a good demonstration of what a different culture would experience in their own country. This is especially noticeable in markem with the Chinese population. \n\nLet me say this loud and clear. We didnt let you come here so you could start your own countries inside of our country. And beleive me, your gunna get rocked and put in your place if you guys keep coming here and being disrespectful. That goes for the any culture who is putting themselves first at the expense of other Canadians, and im not talking about white canadians im talking about all Canadians from anywhere. We re all equal and you will not be allowed to position your selves in a way that gives you immunity to these values. \n\nIm getting really tired of going into business like tim hortons and knowing what the nationality of the owner is by just looking around at the staff who work in fhe business. We let you have a seat at our table to break bread with us in a mutually benifital relationship. But what is pretty evident is that a lot of these people dont like us and if it was up to them we wouldnt exist. They fail to behave in a way that acknowledges the truth. That the family whos heritage is of this land, built this house that your living in. With our low corruption goverments , our clean drinking water, our free health care and education system, with our opportunities that make it possible through merit and hard work that it doesnt matter what family or where you were born. These are attractive features of canada that play a role in why people want to come here. And leave where they were. Its it logical to think that you have more to learn about us then we do of you? Not being on some selfish punk shit is canadas greatest strength. Its that same inclusives mentality that keep the government corruption very small which empowers the citizens to make them successful and able to contribute more back into this system. The very nature of hoarding resources for ones family, same culture, etc are the same oppressive situations many of these people left their countries to seek better opportunities. But once given those opportunities and a chance to decide for themselves, a lot of these people use their liberties to create exclusion and hostility toward out groups. The indians do this in a very overt in your face way, the chinese are more polite about it but both have this way of looking out for their own and not being concerned with anyone else. As far as im conerned you should all be split up and dispersered to live in different provinces and cites. I know this isnt realitic but it would save them from what a lot of them are gunna end up be exposed to which is experiences with native born Canadians who are going to very rudly show you what happens when you disrespectf someone in their own home. \n\nThe party is over. You people need to start being Canadian and care about Canadians like you care about your own culture or get the fuck out!

Drugs and illegal services were sold\n\nJan 21 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday pardoned Silk Road founder Ross Ulbricht, who was sentenced to life in prison for running an underground online marketplace where drug dealers and others conducted more than $200 million in illicit trade using bitcoin.\n\nThe Republican president made good on a campaign pledge to free Ulbricht, 40, who was arrested in 2013 and sentenced in 2015 in what became a landmark U.S. prosecution launched only a few years after the emergence of the popular cryptocurrency.\n\nIF DICTATOR TRUMP WAS SO IMTERESTED IN ENDING DRUG CONSUMPTION, WHY HE PARDONS THE BIGGEST DRUG DEALER IN THE USA HYPOCRITE!!!

Comment section is quite hilarious lol. Canadians are saying “No more USA product!” on Youtube (USA company). Most businesses use Microsoft (USA company). Majority of data is stored in Amazon (USA company). Smart devices use Nvidia chips (USA company). I’m not trying to favor USA but people gotta know that it’s really really hard not to use USA goods.. especial businesses

We love the good people of Canada and can’t wait to welcome them as the 51st State.\n\nThe tariffs are meant to crack down on Chinese exports moving through Canada and Mexico as middle men to avoid their own tariffs. Had both Canada and Mexico regulated the terms of our agreements better on “product origin” then none of us would be in this position. Furthermore, China smuggles drugs through both Canada and Mexico using resins that are chemically embedded with synthetic drugs. So, neither Canada nor Mexico should be climbing on any high horses when their exports are killing our people.

everything is so politicized now. for those how dont know ancient Greece was probably the first nation to use tariffs to protect their own products... to keep their own farms and pottery industry healthy and not rely so much on outside countries for staple goods Alexander Hamilton adopted this approach for America \nHamilton's goals for tariffs: \nRepay the country's foreign and domestic debt \nMeet the government's operating expenses \nPromote manufacturing in the United States \nFulfill the goals of his Report on Manufactures \nmind you there were NO INCOME TAXES... that's right.. absolutely NONE! the entire nation ran on funds from tarrifs!

I will stop buying American goods, including the Bourbon I always used to buy, until Trump (and those who voted for him) comes to his senses.

Canadians need a good shaking up. After the way the canadian government treated the truck drivers and what they are doing to their people with the carbon tax they need something to unite them and make them start using their common sense at the voting booth. Trump would have a different relationship with a conservative government that showed a willingness to work with him...

All 3 of them are nearsighted. Of course Trump is the worst and started it, no argument there. But all 3 are sort of using the same playbook. “Just buy national”, well, how can Canada do that as easily as the other 2? Good luck Canada.

The invoked reasons to impose tariffs on Canadian goods are BS. Trump needed a reason to use the emergency act. This is just a smoke screen in order to open up a new trade agreement ahead of schedule. If he keeps this up, the whole world will turn against him and the US.

Canadian should buy use their own goods and items

Trudeau is a wise intelligent well spoken man....he has a good heart....he is humble and will not allow insults ridicule threats accusations to create division....Trump respects Trudeau...Trump would gladly hire Trudeau...knowing he is an honest truthful trustworthy man...Trudeau word is good and bond....Trump and Trudeau can work well together....Wise men create peace fools create war.....do unto others as you want done to you....is the golden rule....it never fails....in difficult situations good people will outlast fools...Love endures all things....Love never fails....There are bad people trying to control Trump....they are using him as a scapegoat.....

Mr president elect kindly use your good office for consideration because lots of our fore fathers biblical all sojourn in foreign country but they leave as responsible humans beings wth the fear of almighty God . Sir appy wisdom in your judgement and action .

I hope Mexico shuts its borders to American truckers and goods also don’t give in to the orange bully who is mentally unstable standing together with china and Canada you don’t give in. Yes your countries will suffer but America will suffer the most because they will have to pay big time. And they are not use to being stood up to

It is hard to even believe the world has come to such a ridiculous, immoral place... I do not understand how people on the news can even discuss these things with a straight face..... Our president is wealthy.He is powerful.He does not have to do anything for anyone .. He is putting his tom energy, an effort and to our country out of the love of God add all of those that are intimidated for no reason by him misunderstand that God illuminates helm and others do not even understand why they hate him.... God does shine through people add. I can promise I have the same hate and people try to destroy me.And I am just a simple person... God is good and I am so happy and evidently, I shine way too bright, also, because my joy in the lord illuminates from me... When I go into a store to use the restroom, and the people working in there has the ability by just looking at me to call 911 and tell them I stole... Which the surveillance never lies..\nYou know something about me was so bothersome to those ladies they couldn't help themselves... But I did.However, receive massive legal problems for making up lies and wasting all fifteen cop cars of cops, they wasted it.... So people need to understand those that shine with God's glory are hated by those that don't serve God... People hate me when I am and giving to them. So it makes all the scents in the world why Trump goes through what he does.. the ones that our most amazing to me are those of the view.... They are so in awe of him.They cannot stop talking about him every day... And I do not even understand how ignorant they or because they are truly in awe of him, they can't manage themselves.... If people would just choose love and support our own president in our country, it would be amazing..\n. I'll bet the united states is the only country that has so much hate for our own people and president... why not just choose to wait and see what happens?Hoping for the best... That man tells us, uh, every time he speaks the most wonderful news we have ever heard... It is obvious by all of the people unable to handle themselves because of his amazing everything... Whoopi Goldberg is the most evil bully that lies like a dog. They let on tv

And I'm sure with some people coming across the border. There may be a sense of entitlement, but I would think for the majority, it's a sense of hope.\n I wish we could embrace every person. That is good coming across that border with open arms and tell them Hey, it's gonna be all right. It's gonna be okay for you and your family. But unfortunately we can't. It's a hard pill to swallow and it's a final thing to watch. People have to struggle that world is a very cruel place for some. And for others it could be very easy in a sense. I think sometimes we have to have empathy for other people. And if we don't have that we're never gonna grow as a human race. Color should never, ever be a barrier. Language should never be a barrier. The only barrier that we have is hatred and just evil people and good. That is, the barrier that we should be looking at if we ever want to grow into what God created us to be eyes need to be opened. These people aren't coming over here and take what we have. You're coming over here because they want something better for their lives. They have struggled most other lives. I'm sure they have seen death. Famine pestilence, things that we have never seen in this country. Our generation.\n S are spoiled when it comes to things like that. We have to open our eyes a little further broaden. Our horizons and take a look at the situation at hand and not be objective. Be like the men of old and what they were put on this Earth to do is solve problems. That's what men are good for solving problems. And that's what the men of this manner should solve the problems. Use your heads think we can find a solution.

He can be there, nobody’s having a doubt that he is a good pilot just the only thing is that he need to use the men bathroom with the new laws

Thank goodness for the Red Wave…so sick of them thinking that they’re entitled to use our tax dollars to pay for their medical expenses and house them. America first ??

CNN: \n\nThese are migrants. Not illegal immigrants. That’s how CNN will call it from now on.\n\nColombia and USA used to have great relationship with agricultural benefits.\n\nThe price of many goods like coffee will rise. \n\nWork force is now adversely affected.\n\nTrump misspelled Colombia into Columbia.\n\nThe inhumane treatment by the government will leave a bad impression on USA people and everyone around the world.

No one made the social net in Canada for us, we made it for each other. That's democracy. Having said, that, I use the healthcare system as little as possible while others are breaking its back with minor colds, especially since Covid. Fear of lack of healthcare was not the Canadian norm, but seems to have become that way resulting in people destroying a good thing and getting lazier about personal responsibility! So much talk about politics everywhere now and not much talk about responsibility for ourselves let alone our neighbours. Politicians are not gods!

Good someone finally stopping us from being used.

Not true, in Canada wait times are not longer than in america, but free and with more consideration served. Canadian doctors are so far superior with knowledge!!! Also american death care does not have good quality, I have just written why in another comment. I payed fortune and was misdiagnosed in contradictions. It is the biggest lie to say american death care can be called even bad. It is terrible. Used to brilliant Soviet Russian doctors, I saw the nightmare!

? lmao is there finally someone standing up to trump. Hahahaha. Trump is getting humbled by other countries. Because we America can't ?what a darn moron. Tariffs cost America alot more money on goods when those countries just bring up the price for Americans so they can pay those tarrifs. It's been proven already with Mexico.a civic built in Mexico use to cost Americans 20k now its up to 40k because of dumb ass donald bringing tariffs. Bro no one cares about your threats trump there just empty when those countries tell u go f yourself. What a darn idiot.this is what you voted for ?

Folks thank Obama for this . All this with Jennifer Aniston is a distraction. He is so gay . But , Jennifer is still guilty because she’s being paid to lie for him . I used to like her & feel bad the way Brad Pitt did her . She’s a greedy money hungry hussy . No good….

Very good? By that you mean we have the absolute worst trade deals. Our Representatives has let the whole planet walk all over us when it comes to trade deals or anything that involves other countries and money from the United States or any country using the United States to make money for themselves. That's all ending now in America will actually start making money instead of our debt Clock going in reverse faster than an F1 car

LOL, ? at this point give a good reason why CNN should exist! This issue got resolved within 40 minutes and Colombian President went back to agree to take the illegals using their own transportation.

Not only did they cave, the Columbian president is sending his presidential plane to use. God it feels good to win.

No, politics in Canada is not good. Just that comment referencing Republicans is an example in and of itself.\nHealthcare is good, used to be better, and is getting worse.\nCrime is rampant in Ont. \nHomelessness is high and rising with job losses, inflation, drugs. Foodbank lineups have more than doubled.\nThere are lots of police and they are armed.\nThey ate so busy with rising crime that they don't pursue other illegal crimes \nWhere is a lot of wonderful about Canafa, but it has gotten worse.\nWe are enjoying the end of the thread of beautiful Canada. But for future generations, Canadians seem to not care.

Oooops .... Trump didn't think about this ? Trump is hurting the good people of America who use cocaine ?

5:39 good go back to Honduras. You are not American you want to use what the white man created to just shit on them. Good riddance

Trump is such an idiot!!! Coffee and other items prices will shoot through the roof ?. He is a sick man that is abnormal. I hope colombia joins the BRICS organization on trading. So trump can then jack up the tariffs to 100% as he is doing to the BRICS partners. That organization will have their own trade and currency! The dollar value is due to drop drastically due to the universal currency that they will rather use. Cuba was the latest to jump on board. Now 56 % of the population will get their traded goods through this organization. I predict Canada to be the next one to jump on board. Trumps mental disorder is isolating America, and has lost the American influence. He treats this situation as it were his business. We all know how many bankruptcies he has had! And no one around him has the balls to tell him that he is wrong! Because he hand picked them to do his malicious works. USA is failing the customer will pay the price on all these tariffs. He still hasn't brought down the prices of eggs yet, what a liar! Hold on to your seats and I hope that we can survive at least until the midterm elections so that he can be impeached! The guy is not all there!!!

Columbia just announced he will send his own plane to pick up his citizens. That is good let them use their fuel.?

I know most of y'all's hate for Trump will not make you see the good thing in what he's done. You just going to keep talking about Colombian coffee costing more, even though Trump's strategy actually worked and the Colombian President used his plane to welcome his people

As a Brit I know many decent integrated Indians here. But none of them are recent arrivals. Older immigrants were respectful and wanted to be British and adopt British ways. But newer immigrants act as if we owe them something while acting in disrespectful dirty disgusting ways. For example in India I have to use Indian toilets as Indians do. I don’t pretend I don’t understand how to use them, I don’t need instructions on the door and I don’t break the toilet by standing on it, shytting up the walls and all over the floor and leave it there like that’s normal. I’ve worked in offices where this was routine when Indian contractors were brought in. Integrated Indian men seem to take great pride in dressing smartly and smelling good. But it’s really common for Indians to smell REALLY BAD. Poor personal hygiene plus excessive amounts of Indian food (you’re abroad ffs try some different food!) creates a truly vile odour. Some Indian men also think it acceptable to stare at and harass British girls (although to be fair they do not have as bad a reputation as their neighbours) they are also rude and racist to white people especially women. Some Indians in 2025 still seem to think they’re living under the Raj and Britain is ‘oppressing’ them. They’re not and we’re not. The empire brought benefits to India and left peacefully over 70 YEARS ago. We don’t owe you ANYTHING. This victim mentality means India will NEVER be a proper first world country. You can flood the world with sheer numbers but you will never be respected or improve the world in any way, you will only ever leech off the invention of others. I do not mean to disrespect the many decent Indian people I’m just telling the truth. As a culture your presence outside of India is negative because of the way so many Indians act, trying to create India wherever they go. And they have the cheek to say this is ok because they got colonised. WELL SO DID WE! That is the truth.

My lord ….why people don’t understand about rules . Did everyone are forgetting about 911 !?!?? Do the right thing for better future nature. But !?The problem this society social media, make people jealous about life things, materials things, make people do bad things . For that !? We are destroying the world ? . I remember when the dollar was less than 2 reais, Brazilian currency . The time was the President George W. Bush family . I never forget the tragedy on the 911 . I remember The US , send Military to find the responsible the 911 , lots money was involved to support the soldiers .Lots country the time was not involved in the 911 . But did get the chance pays all the bills too “ because the money was going down quickly , gave one good opportunity to payback he United States money ?. Then thought The Americans never get back after, 911 !? Americans are amazing people, because they’re responsible pay for their own taxes , to support the country . Resume :::::::1= pays the bills to the United States of America, so the people from another country don’t live , to come to America ??. 2= make the money universal : if don’t “ the war will getting worse . The president the United States of America , Trump deserves respect ?? if you don’t . Bad times come true , to kip the American save . So much things to do with this planet ?, but people’s always want burn ? petroleum, for not being productive enough to care about the environment planet ?. We must use more Electric ⚡️ cars , to have better chance future rainy . ?

ask them to vote for good politicians like Trump in their own country, not corrupt politicians. Don't use the excuse that your country is bad for you as you vote for stupid public servants. Am I right Biden or Kamala loka? vote for a good politician that will serve your country not their own pocket...or pardoning family member, right Biden?

THERE IS NO REASON for Indians to Claim REFUGEE Status in CANADA. They are ONLY Economical Refugees, SEEKING A Better LIFE in Canada!! Without any good Cause. Mis using EVERY POSSIBLE AVAILABLE venues, that Includes Working under the Table (Get Paid CASH). Pumping all UN PAID TAX earnings Back to India to their immediate families (of Course). CAR THEFTS are ALARMINGLY High due to Indian Young student offenders!! The LIST GOES ON....\nDO WE NEED THIS SHIT from Indian STUDENTS????

They spreading everywhere like corona virus , sorry but they don’t have good reputation mostly in Europe , they live exactly the way they used to live back in their home country without accepting countries low and culture..

Ya good, Indians need to learn to use deodorant before going to other countries, otherwise you make us all look bad. Indians please use deodorant please!!

I pray for them and My heart hurts for them but immigration needs to be applied for properly and legally and I thank Good we have a President and Vice President and proper Government officals in office again??I pray for every soul who wants to come into country but they must abide by law and do it properly! My life was threatened by an illegal I was working with and when I report nothing was done?We need law and order in our country again and the attacks coming from the criminals and terrorists The Biden admin let in are immenant???Pray they do not blow whole country up as there is 60 thousand pounds of missing fertalizer .That's what was used in Oklahoma City. I believe we must pray hard for the safety of our country?May God Bless and keep our United States of America safe from the terrorists allowed in by Biden Administration????I pray constantly for safety of our Beautiful Country

There is an Anglo-Saxon conspiracy to destroy India. Anglo-Saxons are thieves. They stole 45 trillion dollars from India in the past. If Indians were smart, they would ask their government to demand reparations from Britain ?, but Indians are not smart. Indians are only good af worshipping gods that do not exist ? If these gods had been useful to our forefathers in the past, the British thieves wouldn't have stolen 45 trillion dollars from India ? It's about time a new eastern bloc was established by Russia, India, and China. We want no truck with Anglo-Saxon thieves. The unscrupulous Anglo-Saxon thieves help corrupt Indian politicians steal India's money. According to Wikipedia, 11 trillion dollars has been stolen from India. That's why many Indians live in slums and under bridges ???? Indian journalists should have the guts to tell the truth about political corruption in India. ?
