You mean new India?

Most Canadians are tolerant to immigration. However, we are fed up with the large number of immigrants the Federal government keeps bringing in. We have a massive housing shortage and they still increase immigration despite the shortage. The Federal Liberals believe housing speculators are the problem, so they put in a vacant home tax to prevent it, but how do you enforce this?\nThe real solution is to roll back immigration to 250,000 new Canadians a year until the housing shortage is somewhat taken care of.

Been living in canada for over 12 years, the influx of new immigrants coming into canada these past 2 years were absurd. It wasnt like this when i first got here. Trudeau must go

Hey most of them will be driving Brand new expensive Vehicles in a couple of weeks! Just wait and see!????

Uncle Mr. RightWhite is back, offering lessons for those who might need a bit of enlightenment. Certainly, the immigration system can be problematic, largely because our government, composed of less-than-astute individuals, fails to put forth a comprehensive roadmap when planning to increase the number of immigrants (consider housing, healthcare, infrastructure, etc.). This is why Uncle Mr. RightWhite always says: don't be lazy and vote wisely. Use your brains so you don't end up whining on social media.\nTo our new immigrants: Of course, you're welcome to come to Canada, legally, as most do. But it's crucial to learn about the local culture, language, and customs. And please, do take the time to learn about First Nation culture—it’s vital for every newcomer and even those of us who have been here for generations.\nAs for the increasing numbers of nonwhites in Brampton—well, yes, that’s happening. But did anyone forcibly remove you from Brampton? You chose to live among those who share your background, and they did the same. So, what's the fuss about?\nSo, you're saying that a 69.8% majority is under threat? Really, give your brain a good shake. If that's a concern, have more children to increase your numbers—no one's stopping you. Now, if you’re worried about Brampton being full of South Asians, and you feel they don't like you or don't assimilate, well, let's have a laugh. Did we assimilate with our vibrant, beautiful First Nation communities? language? culture?Imagine how they felt when Europeans took everything from them. Stop putting your failures on others. Individuals who are high achievers dive into competition and put in the hard work. Conversely, those who are indolent merely whine on social media. education - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Canada

The government wants us to populate more of the rural areas of canadian and let new immigrants enjoy the life of the city.

So immigrants that came earlier are complaining about new immigrants ?\nTje problem is corrupt governments, always has been and always eill be.

The gov has received so much money from new immigrants, but failed to spend it properly . The PM just know how to show off himself and spent our tax money on ridiculous area.

let em keep coming new yorkers will wake up soon...!!!

What are all these immigrants expected to work at? Where are the new steel mills and coal mines and auto plants employing hundreds of thousands of people? Oh wait there arent any. There isnt a new industrial revolution around the corner, if anything AI could mean there might be less jobs then ever. It is a shitshow on so many levels

Toronto is not the city I once knew - we are failing to protect and set up new infrastructure and people are suffering

Its not racism or discrimination, i myself immigrant can vouch for the trouble new immigrants face who have been sold a false dream and they struggle from the beginning and they have no jobs. This also creates abuse by the companies as they can now get employees for cheap due to lack of jobs.

Poor Poor people of new York.

With more than 400 millions Canadian dollars mismanaged and put into companies having ties to government officials, you cannot complain about the lack of fund to build infrastructures for new residential/commercial areas. It is like shoving a huge pile of money into your own pocket and whine that you don't have money

FUCK NEW JERK CITY

Time to start exploring beyond Toronto and our big cities. Too many Canadians and new Canadians can't seem to look past Toronto. Those that can't pay the price, others make the big moves. I'd say quit complaining.

3 solutions to the immigration problem: \n\n1. Curb or lessen immigration \n2. Build more infrastructure (e.g ghettos, projects or new apartments) for new immigrants\n3. Build more cities or expand existing ones

If Canadians think new govt will solve the problem. They are dead wrong. This is the vicious cycle they can not get out. Their own structure can not support pensions and salaries. They need to bring in new immigrants otherwise the system cycle will collapse. As far as housing is concern. Does Canada have shortage of land ? Its due to policies that new housing is not coming up thus driving prices through the roof. No govt will gonna change that because corporate interests are involved and not house owners wanted their prices to go down. Which happened to be biggest voting block. Thus ordinary young Canadians are feeling the music and they see new students as the enemy. In fact it is the students who go through horrible exploitation ordinary Canadians cannot imagine. Canadians economy is an artificial economy based AND ITS BUBBLE WILL GO POP IF IT STOPS IMMIGRATION. Harsh reality and see if Mr Poilievre gonna change that ??. They are all the same bunch of liars like Trudeau. Don't forget Trudeau was charming prince ones. They all change with Realities.

Good luck New York.

Hi...i'm new here and i've succesfully submit my CV but i was wondering if i could increase my chances by applyimg twice that is as a registered nurse and a caregiver as i'm a registered nurse.

A Sri Lankan who always gets misidentified as Indian reading the comments here. ? I moved here with the genuine purpose of studying for my LLM, after considering several countries. I was offered a scholarship from my university (a top ranking public university) I know several of my Indian colleagues who came to study & now work in universities & firms. I know educated people who came here from SL, India & other South Asian countries who came to study with the genuine purpose of studying & now pursuing PhDs here & elsewhere. I understand how concerned the whole immigration issue is for Canadians & new commers like us. I’ve always loved to study in Canada & now that I’m here just to see all these negative sides is truly heartbreaking. I was able to secure a decent apartment & decent job (both me & my husband)& so are my friends & colleagues. I love Canada & means no harm. I’d love to use my knowledge & serve developing countries like mine one day. I kindly request anyone reading my comment, please don’t judge. There’re people who came here to study & love to contribute their knowledge & skills to the world. Thank you.

Lets tonnes of new people into the country and didn't think about where they're going to live.....There is no housing....Rent has skyrocketed! The price of homes has skyrocketed!

It is wrong to say that the integration model does not work\nIt's just that no model can be effective enough to absorb such quantities of new individuals (especially when some hate the West and its values...)

How do you like being a sanctuary now New York? Just wait till this bubble explodes ?

I escaped Commie-da 17 years ago and moved to Asia. I saw this coming a MILE AWAY.... now is just a joke. If you're wife isn't getting groped on the bus by ...then ur avoiding shit on the streets. I stay in the house when I go an visit. Have no urge to even go to downtown Toronto or anywhere else. Also, $25 for a CHICKEN.. a bloody CHICKEN.. I pay $3 in Indonesia, and you can buy a beautiful new house here in a guarded private estate for $200k and live like a KING on 40k a year. You can rent a house with a pool here for $6k a YEAR in same private estate.. I dont even lock my door or close my garage when I leave., like it USED T OBE in Canada 25 years ago..... Get out before they close the borders again for the next psyop.

The government told people that there is a housing shortage AND let in a record number of new people. How are people supposed to react? Imagine if there was a famine and the leader said “hey, let’s go share our food with somebody else”. You can’t reasonably expect people not to react this way given the narrative that the government itself is putting forth.

You cannot build indefinitely, so to blame only new housing builds is wrong. The truth is: immigration should always be controlled and limited and people vetted for anti-western values.

Well New York you ask for it, you got it. I just hate it for the ones who didn’t ask for it.

We were locked down because our hospitals were full and almost 4 million people have moved here since then...alot of new fast food joints no new hospitals

Over 437,000 new permanent residents, along with over 604,000 temporary workers in 2023! Plus 1 million international students! That’s 2 million new people who settled in Canada in 2023! Only 240,267 new housing units were built in entire Canada in 2023! That is the problem!

It’s easy to understand. !??? Western countries going to another country’s to take their natural resources. In exchange for their some population to arrive like refugees. We need blam on government individuals not on purely people who left everything and come to start new Beginning

The government of Canada is the ultimate racist, tricking people from poor countries into believing that they'll get things that they simply won't if they get into Canada by any means necessary. And then they are stuck here as the new indentured servants.

It's not just about lack of resources; it's about making sure that new immigrants are willing to accept Canadian values. That means tolerance and respect

It's a false statement saying there's not enough housing, considering the fact that there is more unoccupied housing in Toronto then unhoused people living in the street. Why? Because of predatorial housing capitalists corporations flipping condos left and right with only their profits in mind. \n\nIt's always been this over and over, nothing new on the horizon. Our bourgeois government creates a crisis, the far-right uses the immigrants as a scapegoat and then guilible working class victims of this crisis looking for a solution fall for their racist rhetoric.\n\nWe do not lack housing, we lack AFFORDABLE housing!\n\nImmigrants are NOT your enemies, the rich capitalists who created this crisis are!

Canada was a country that use to accept new comers. But the times have changed now

Canada new zealand australia are all immigrant decendent

New York, I'm leaving today. I want no part of it in old New York. ?

Businesses in Canada save money by hiring new immigrants, so Canadians can't get jobs.\n Thanks Justin

Justin Trudeau is destroying Canada and he won't leave until next election. Even ten years ago, housing wasn't out of reach for many Canadians. Now it is very difficult and I feel terrible for young Canadians and new immigrants.

Please is this old site or new site ?

Man, I really feel bad for New York. Don’t be fooled, this is the work of the current administration and Border Czar Kamala. Canadian authority is very aware of the situation and are willingly enabling the situation.

These people are not migrants, they are opportunists. Here in Canada we watch daily on news people escaping from US crossing the border. I guess in New York migrants can get prepaid card for some time and then authorities cut them off and migrants come back to Canada for canadian money, it's a revolving door

My area is scenic and attracts many new Canadians. People stop in the middle of the road, take pictures on private property, picnic on people's lawns and leave their garbage including baby diapers. It is a problem which can be fixed. New Cdns.should get some kind of orientation when they arrive so they know what is acceptable and what is not. We would all have a starting place to get to know each other.

Cause Canadians are struggling while new people from far away get the red carpet

Canada's system is at fault too. Too much regulations and taxes to create new residential zones, buildings and houses. You could easily approve pre-manufactured standard houses (3d printed houses, container houses, etc) that could be mounted in a few days and create whole new neighborhoods in a few months. That technology is already here for decades. That would bring the housing prices down. But of course, landlords and realters would hate that.

Finally a report that calls it the way it is. Canada is broken, all the services our tax dollars support are redirected to the new Canadians. There are no services available to me, after paying taxes for more then 40 years. Housing, rentals are outrageously priced, what once cost $800 a month a few years ago, is now $1,500 for the exact same unit. \n\nThe Canadians that built this country with their tax contributions are being shut out of all the services and we can't afford to live in our own country. Even immigrants don't want to live here anymore. Canada is broken!\n\nthere are a lot of reports that show immigrants using foodbanks like a grocery store. Food banks are not grocery stores, they are there to help people who are not able to buy food. Foreign students are expected to be able to support themselves while in Canada as foreign students. They lie about having the money to get in, then when they get here they complain, take our housing, our jobs (Ukrainians can work in Canada as soon as their plane lands, after receiving $3,000 in cash from the government of Canada).\n\nCanadians are treated as second class citizens, priority is given to new Canadians. There are absolutely no services available to me, no doctor, no affordable housing, double the price for food, no medical, nothing....

Canadians are expected to suffer quietly with unaffordable housing and wages, while new immigrants are given all sorts of opportunities and financial assistance that we as Canadians aren’t given! A government is expected to care about its own citizens 1st, not last and it’s not wrong to expect that from our government! Shame on Trudeau and his failures and shame on him for attacking Canadians who are suffering from MASS MIGRATION!

NEW WAVE OF IMMIGRANTS ARE LOOKING TO EXPLOIT THE LIBERAL SOCIAL PROGRAMS AND SOFT ON CRIME LAWS IN THE WEST

Is it true the gov is giving wage subsidies to employers who hire newcomers and new grads? It's a very tough job market out there now.

Hey guy just so you know is a new norm things nowadays if you dont like your country just simply pack and walk across any others country borders. Just like your house
