There are now quite a few news stories in Canada of immigrants leaving the country - some back home and others to the USA and other places. Many just get a Canadian passport and then leave. There are public health care and pensions, so it can be an asset and also a convenient travel document to have. A lot of Canadian university graduates have a very hard time finding work in their fields and a lot of them look to the US for a better future. Both immigration and unemployment in Canada are much higher that in the US - so more people are chasing fewer jobs that often pay less and are taxed more than in the USA. Opportunities are generally a lot fewer in Canada than the US, and the business environment is not as favourable, and taxes significantly higher. You would be getting some of the entrepreneurs from Canada moving to the US for more favourable conditions as well to launch a business and also now a lot more rich investor types, so-called high net worth individuals wanting to relocate, because they just raised the capital gains tax in Canada. Capital gains is also triggered on inheritance in Canada with a deemed sale of property and assets, so rich people would prefer the American system and want to be residents there for tax purposes and have their assets grow in value in the US compared to Canada. There are very large numbers of foreign students and other categories of immigrants which may have as their goal going to the US after getting a temporary visa to Canada which is easy to get - maybe something like half a million to a million people in those categories depending on the year, plus around another half million regular immigrants and refugees now. The Trudeau administration has increased immigration to record numbers. It has been steadily going up over the years for several decades since 1990. Because of family re-unification it can have a snowball effect and could significantly exceed 1 million per year. A lot of the sending countries have much larger populations than Canada, so there are a lot more that can be potentially sent to Canada in the future. About 1/4 of the population of Canada has been added in the past few decades. Add to that visitors and temporary visas - that is a lot of people potentially moving to the US. Before the 1990s Canadians visiting the US were not required to have a passport and a drivers' license or birth certificate was adequate. Now a passport is required. It is impossible to effectively control the long Canada-US border, so there could be some unified policies in that area agreed on between Canada and the USA on immigration and refugees. Canada currently has a very open immigration policy with the government actively seeking out more immigration beyond its current processing capacity and trying to take rejected immigrants from other countries. The Canadian government, especially in recent years under Trudeau is immigration hungry. It might be the only country in the world doing that. What some news reports are now saying is that some immigrants are actually leaving, since they find it so difficult in Canada and some are worse off than they were in the countries they came from, which were considered to be less developed than Canada. \nWashington currently has more immigration controls and administrative competencies than Ottawa, so US pressure and influence is a faster way to get reforms into the system than waiting for local politicians to do anything, which is unlikely. Canada is seen by some as a backdoor into the US. Biden's immigration policies could be seen as very conservative in Canada compared to Trudeau's. It used to be in the news about how refugees were trying to get to Canada and walking across the border in Quebec and out west from the US earlier, but now there are more news stories of immigrants leaving Canada trying to go the other way, probably due to high costs and unemployment because the government took in more people than it could absorb into the economy. They have the idea that immigration drives GDP growth so that they can borrow and spend more, expand the civil service, etc. without making any cutbacks or efficiencies, supposedly without the Debt to GDP ratio getting worse, just by bringing in more people as if that would drive the economy. A lot depends on who you bring in as well. Are they going to go on welfare, are they going to increase crime, will they somehow contribute to society, are they a net tax benefit or cost in terms of government services, will they invest money, will they start a business and create jobs for others ? Those issues do not factor into government decision making in Canada for the most part. Ontario Premier Doug Ford did say there were too many foreign students. It is bad planning not to consider those factors since there are other costs that grow with those policies as well, and infrastructure has to be expanded. I think that the real immigration numbers to Canada are not transparent or made public, nor are the costs involved, if anyone even knows what they are. Nor is the impact on crime. You can guess from what the reports are in other countries. The Fraser Institute has made some estimates on the net costs of immigration to the government budget a few years ago, which were very high and which by now have increased - the cost equivalent of several new aircraft carriers each year. They are big numbers which are not publicized, but it amounts to the fact that immigration is subsidized by the taxpayers in Canada and it is not paying for our pensions as an ageing society as has been claimed. There is less money for education, health care and pensions per person, and those social benefits will probably have to be reduced over time. Social programs can only be delivered to the extent that the government has money. The bigger social system a county has, the more such immigration policies are going to cost. Trudeau has been expanding various social programs as well, so higher taxes and debt are likely with that approach. Then more productive people and companies will want to leave Canada and go to the US. Probably the government does not know what the actual numbers and costs are and doesn't actively keep track of that information beyond what is required. Probably nobody knows what the true immigration figures and their associated costs are in Canada, and hardly anyone has even studied those issues. If they can just walk across the US border and get papers so easily making an asylum claim, it is not surprising, since it would take them longer to get a regular visa and work permit if they did it legally. You could call that a loophole in the US immigration system which is being exploited. The US is better governed in general and has a better system in many ways, but I am not sure if it is the same on that. People have arrived on boats and have not been sent back. At least in the US you have more open information about those issues. In Canada it is hard to find out anything about it. Deportations from Canada are very few. \nOn other issues in Canada when voting in federal elections you have to show a government issued photo ID like a drivers' license or passport to vote and bring a card that was mailed out to eligible voters that gets updated addresses when a person files their taxes. I have never heard of mail-in ballots in Canada, but there are remote areas of the country in the far north who may have special system for voting. It is easier to get a Canadian citizenship than US and many more citizenships are handed out in Canada each year in proportion to the population than in the US. Canadian might be one of the easiest citizenships to get in the world. The official line now is that it is a country of immigrants. Based on current trends, will very little opposition to it in the parliament and most MPs supporting it, future immigration to Canada could increase to several million per year because of the rapid growth of population in the world, and the momentum already growing of immigration to Canada, so it may change significantly in the future. Historically around the world you can see many examples that country names, borders, flags and languages change over time with population changes, so it might not be called Canada anymore in 50-100 years. For example, Bulgaria used to be called Thrace which had been a powerful kingdom in antiquity and had a different language which is barely known about anymore. Over the past 2,000 years it has gone through a number of changes and had various regimes governing it, has been independent and also part of several different empires. Canada has only been a country for a short time in comparison and has been been going through significant changes. Trudeau has said that Canada is a post-national country. Canada is also going through a period of critical self-examination and deconstruction-revisionism. A lot of what had been viewed as positive from its history now is seen more critically, with re-naming and removing historical figures now seen as negative.\nDiscussing immigration policy critically is considered by many to be taboo in Canada, unless a person is saying good things about it in general. You can hear people say that the government isn't processing enough people, for example, but not often that there are too many or that it costs a lot of money. The trend of migration from Canada to the US would only increase much more in the future as it is going currently, and its role as a stepping stone to migration to the US could increase. The way this would be seen by many in Canada is that they are losing valuable people to the USA whom they consider assets, since a lot of officials have been trying to bring in more people into the country, but not everyone wants to stay in Canada nowadays because of a lack of jobs and opportunities. Canada is quite laissez-faire about migration, with Toronto being a sanctuary city as well.

Complaining will not solve this- in my opinion the communists/ democrats do not care. The plan is to overwhelm the systems to gain more control. The end. The country has evolved, the question is what is it going to settle into? A constitutional republic or something far closer or equal to communism? Or, a Balkanized nation with parts of the country and states no longer recognizing federal authority. It’ll be interesting for sure- I hope we all manage to find peace and harmony

Even if the US votes in Trump (which they should) they will need him in for 20+ years to MAGA. It would be possible if you have 20+ years of Republican government but the odds of that aren't good. Sadly like so many other parts of the world, we are burdened with too many weirdo' leftys'.

All going to vote for kamala as part of the deal.

Part of the Democratic agenda by design - thousands of illegal migrants who will be registered to vote and will vote Democrat.

Trudeau is part of the WEF and a pos. He wants to screw the US as much as possible.

Its a Democrat plot and Kathy Hochul part of it along with Kamala and biden come one come All NYC its state will be broke and broken good let the wealthy keep leaving NYS ah ha. See how the economy makes it but believe the AGs etc will be eliminated behind their crooked ways. Evil shall slay the wicked and be left desolate. AMEN

IF that Unqualified Political Hack Extraordinaire is Elected ( God Forbid ) you can look for this in virtually EVERY Town and Major City in America. And the Mind Boggling part; people will actually Vote for that Anti American Marxist. LOOK at the hideous Policies she would implement.

You forgot to mention that a large majority of MP’s are landlords or have investments in real estate rentals. The trend was visible since 2004. These rats are the ones creating the demand, they have stalled real estate development, they have brought in more immigrants to increase the demand. The liberals, Conservatives, NDP, they’re all corrupt, freedom trucks and older people think Pierre will save them, he will not. The worst part that even if this mess were to get somehow fixed, prices will not go down, because businesses know that Canadians will pay for more. These rats don’t care, once they have done their business here, they’ll move to Texas, Florida, or California, or some Caribbean country. They’ll keep working as a “international relations” or some sort of public relations relations position for a private company that will give them millions, to use their networks and influence to speed up projects in Canadian communities. They’ll reap the benefits of spending less in the united states, while still sucking Canadians dry through their rental real properties or whatever else they have an interest to spike up the cost of while they are in office.

Ummm is it me or am I missing something here? I thought you need a passport from America going to Canada ??‍♀️? I know these immigrants getting on a plane with NO PASSPORT , MAYBE ONLY 2% HAVE A PASSPORT BUT ITS DOUBTFUL LIKE WTF, THEY MIGHT HAVE A ID BUT THIS IS BEYOND CRAZY‼️‼️‼️?? AND THE WORST FKN PART OF THIS WHOLE THUNG IS SOME CROSSING COULD BE A TERRORIST ??????????UMM YEAH DID ANYONE EVEN THINK OF THIS??, ALSO THE BIGGEST PROBLEM IS US AS AMERICANS CANT GET TO THE POLITICIANS TO COMPLAIN AND YES THEY COULD CARE LESS‼️‼️??????AMERICA HAS GOTTEN SOOOOOOOOOOO BAD OVER THE LAST 4 YRS ITS A FKN DISGRACEI COULD GO ON AND ON AND ON BUT I WONT I DONT CARE ANYMORE WHAT HAPPENS IM LEAVING AMERICA ASAP , FUCK THIS COUNTRY ITS NIT GREAT LIKE MANY THINK WE HAVE MAJOR MAJOR PROBLEMS HERE PLUS ITS GETTING WORSE WITH ALL THE KILLINGS AND IF THAT WASNT BAD ENOUGH WE HAVE CORRUPTION HERE TOO DONT THINK FOR A SECOND WE DONT‼️????????\nIM SORRY BUT I NEVER FELT THIS WAY BEFORE BUT I CAN HONESTLY SAY NOW I HATE THIS COUNTRY HATE ITTTTTTT‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️?????\nTHIS COUNTRY IS NOW ONLY GOOD FOR IMMIGRANTS SAD BUT TRUE, IF THEY WORK GREAT, BUT WORKING IS NOT THE PROBLEM PROBLEM IS THEY ARE NOW TOP PRIORITY ???

But the crazy part is that all of them have to go back because of GESARA. They have no choice because in order to claim that money, they have to go back to the country they were born in and help rebuild that country. Sit back everyone. They won't last.

No, the Russian part, is the incredulous ridiculous.

it's part of the great replacement plan for the dem9nic N W O ! ?

Well as long as they know they will be sent to the poor parts of the city. Money for these type has all but run out. Hope they have brought their money with them. This is no longer the free for all it once was. Not a wise choice.

We need to split NYS into west and east NY because those of us upstate want no part of NYC or Albany.

Mr Trudeau: I am ashamed of you. You have ruined, changed many good things from Canada. All cultures are different. This is part of North America. You promised different things to Canadians & old immigrants, but didn’t do it. Everything is so expensive. This is European, white, Latin American country. Where is your head? Do not bring more people from India, Asia, Africa & other parts of the world If you don’t know their gods, their culture, background. How are you going to help the people that are in here??? Send all the people back, & help here. Don’t be like your father& family. Shame on you.

The border nobody ever talks about… never part of the political dialogue

So I did not know this. I’d be willing to bet that Canadians for the most part aren’t aware of it either. I can’t believe that a Mexican doesn’t need a visa but I do. I was freaking born there. Smh.

The sad part is, I know people who would abdicate their US citizenship for the option of getting that package deal instead of their current debt and life situation. A single person living off $1400/month is a lot of ramen and skittles!

Life long Texan here and I can’t say a part of me isn’t relishing in the fact that northern states are starting to experience what we have for decades.

The best place for migrants is without a doubt New York State and an even better part of New York state is NEW YORK CITY! If you can get to the city, you will find the most generous, welcoming and supportive people in the whole country.

Only talking, talking.... No real actions. Is it impossible to build up in the desert of Nevada or Arizona or in northern part of Alaska a large concentration camps for illegals? Male and female are separated and children separated. Feeding them bread, beans, water, very simple. And they will have a two, only two options. a) go back to their cursed country. b) stay in this camp forever, until death. Like in Australia.

Its all part of the Judeo-Marxist plan

When they can't find the gas station they are stealing cars and attempting to drive to NYC.It's become an every day occurance to find illegals walking thru your back yard or hiding in your out buildings .Living in the Northern part of the state of NY is fast becoming like the southern border .

Canada IS our early warning system.Make no mistake how valuable Canada is to our safety.Possibly now more than ever.This is part of an agreement between Canada, US & Mexico.Your about 4 years too late.

TO THE WORLD'S JOY AND DISMAY:\n\nREVELATION 16. ARMAGEDDON.\n\nThen I heard a loud voice from the temple telling the seven angels, ‘Go and pour out on the earth the seven bowls of the wrath of God.’\n\nSo the first angel went and poured his bowl on the earth, and a foul and painful sore came on those who had the mark of the beast and who worshipped its image.\n\nThe second angel poured his bowl into the sea, and it became like the blood of a corpse, and every living thing in the sea died.\n\nThe third angel poured his bowl into the rivers and the springs of water, and they became blood. And I heard the angel of the waters say,\n‘You are just, O Holy One, who are and were,\n for you have judged these things;\nbecause they shed the blood of saints and prophets,\n you have given them blood to drink.\nIt is what they deserve!’\nAnd I heard the altar respond,\n‘Yes, O Lord God, the Almighty,\n your judgments are true and just!’\n\nThe fourth angel poured his bowl on the sun, and it was allowed to scorch people with fire; they were scorched by the fierce heat, but they cursed the name of God, who had authority over these plagues, and they did not repent and give him glory.\n\nThe fifth angel poured his bowl on the throne of the beast, and its kingdom was plunged into darkness; people gnawed their tongues in agony, and cursed the God of heaven because of their pains and sores, and they did not repent of their deeds.\n\nThe sixth angel poured his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up in order to prepare the way for the kings from the east. And I saw three foul spirits like frogs coming from the mouth of the dragon, from the mouth of the beast, and from the mouth of the false prophet. These are demonic spirits, performing signs, who go abroad to the kings of the whole world, to assemble them for battle on the great day of God the Almighty. (‘See, I am coming like a thief! Blessed is the one who stays awake and is clothed, not going about naked and exposed to shame.’) And they assembled them at the place that in Hebrew is called Harmagedon.\n\nThe seventh angel poured his bowl into the air, and a loud voice came out of the temple, from the throne, saying, ‘It is done!’ And there came flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder, and a violent earthquake, such as had not occurred since people were upon the earth, so violent was that earthquake. (People now vanish!). The great city was split into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. God remembered great Babylon and gave her the wine-cup of the fury of his wrath. And every island fled away, and no mountains were to be found; and huge hailstones, each weighing about a hundred pounds, dropped from heaven on people, until they cursed God for the plague of the hail, so fearful was that plague.\n\nActivate for everybody who has not obeyed my commands already given, whether they have time remaining or not to comply. They should always obey God immediately. If I say jump, you don't say in a few, YOU JUMP RIGHT THEN AND THERE! \n\nSo as it is written, so let it be right this minute real, life, live, quick and right now! \n\n08/04/2024. 13:30. ET.

It's all part of the freaky Pike plan but you know what there's a problem he really did not understand the whole plan he could not have seen all the years and trust me when I tell you there will be a plot twist to ww3. Yeah see because there are absolutely more enlightened people today who are not in their big fat club

There are some inaccuracies in here. Since Feb 2024 Canada has required that Mexican nationals either have a temporary visa or are able to qualify for entry via the eTA program (usually business people and tourists). That doesn’t mean they can enter the USA legally.\n\nAn easy solution is to just legislate that foreigners who can’t prove that they entered the country legally (by stopping for an interview at an official border crossing) should be designated as here illegally and forever forfeit the opportunity to be here legally. So simple. \n\nOf course the constitution allows anyone to claim asylum without entering at an official border crossing. That’s a huge hole created by well meaning naive politicians. Time for a 28th Amendment I think. \n\nAs for Canada’s defense from Russian bombers….Canada could very well defend itself from those. Both the U.S. and Canada jointly patrol and guard the northern border as part of NORAD.

Y'all need to stop complaining and be grateful Fr y'all complaining about New York Listening to Others Opinion but NYC Is way Better than going to live in poor part of Africa Or Any other poor country stop acting like it's not 50 State's in U.S and get Right with God ?✝️ Amen.

This is all part of the great reset/replacement: \n\nGovernments look the other way while migrants pour into the US. \n\nThen US government grants the migrants citizenship and they vote for the left permanently installing leftist rule. \n\nThe country then goes bankrupt and must initiate new reforms that keep the elites rich and in power and the broke and hungry masses under control.

Keep allowing satin to control you it’s so crazy to me that everyone just thinks all this is a coincidence it’s all part of there plan reelect Trump so this falling country can continue to suffer I pray that God has mercy on us all because he’s coming back sooner then we think

The WEF and billionaire elites master plan is going as planned. The population replacement ratio is desired to be 2.1 or slightly above to maintain a static population count. The actual numbers in the West average about 1.6. Even China's is below and India's is level. The continent of Sub-Saharan Africa is well over the replacement. Governments, elites and big business NEED an expanding population to function .. THAT is why the borders are open everywhere. Part 2 of the plan is to allow the disintegration of society along many lines.. DEI, woke, BLM, left against the right etc. This division stops the population as a whole organising and turning against the puppet masters. As seen in NYC, retail chains and smaller businesses are leaving due to weak law enforcement and punishment, resulting in shop lifting becoming almost legal. After demonstrations and even food riots, the leaders will offer and open government outlets for food and basic necessities. Transport, Tv's, phones, furniture and even clothing will be government allocated. Allocated will also mean rented/leased. Remember folks.. .. YOU WILL OWN NOTHING AND BE GRATEFUL

Trudeau is a puppet for the WEF globalists....open borders is just part of the agenda

The carzy part is that real estate is at am all time high and the billionaires are still putting up luxury bulding that only the 1 percent can afford. \nBut then you NYC slowly becoming a dump with illegals that dont work, gang members, and are breaking into stores! Im so confused right now!

Context:\n\nAround a year or two ago driving back home with some friends after visiting Niagara Falls, we were pulled over because my car’s headlights were off. I didn’t stop immediately when they turned their police lights on because I didn’t think I did anything wrong but did eventually pull over after realizing they were indeed trying to pull me over. \n\nAfter I pulled over, two officers quickly got out and one of them rushed to my passenger side mirror and very aggressively yelled at me, “why didn’t you pull over” etc. I was very surprised by his reaction and quickly explained that I was a fairly new driver (about 6 months of driving experience at the time). He went away for a few seconds to cool off and later apologized for his behavior (very respectable).\n\nMain Focus:\n\nNow, the interesting part is while the officer was cooling off, the other officer wanted not just my ID but everyone else’s’ in my car as well. I still to this day do not think that is normal, however, I haven’t been pulled over enough to confirm that. Anyways, some of my friends didn’t have officials IDs on them but they did have their student ID. The police wanted that as well. They took a long time to what I assume, conduct a very thorough check on everyone’s ID, making sure nothing is suspicious and everyone is from America. The whole encounter had to be around 20 to 30 minutes long, it was very very long. \n\nTakeaway:\n\nFrom what I experienced that day, I strongly believe that people were at least crossing the northern border around 1 year ago and most likely even earlier. There are bus services that go straight to NYC from Buffalo which is right across the border from Canada to the US. However, I’m not sure if you need ID to use those services. \n\nFor those who read this comment, use this information however you will, I hope it helps even just a little in making some sort of change. \n\nHopefully, there won’t be an increase on how long it takes me to get past border patrol to Canada and back ?. I also hope that our taxes decrease because too much of it are being payed for services to aliens when some of our locals are still stuck in the streets.

I would be *VERY* interested in seeing Cash's voting history since he moved to NYC (once it was safe for him to do so). I'll bet dollars to doughnuts that he was part of the problem.

They’re not IMMIGRANTS nor are the ASYLUM SEEKERS. Thats part of your problem. But you are importing third world problems. I’m surprised the citizens aren’t taking it right back to the buses and taxi cab companies. No, no, no. Burn police stations and drive businesses out.

The worst part is that these blue-haired broken hearted liberals after ruining their own state are moving to red states where they feel safer and yet still voting blue! ?

When are Americans going to wake up and relaize WE ARE BEING INVADED?!!! Nothing to do with race. These ppl do not belong here. They are not here to make things better for anyone. Not even themselves. They are here to extort Americans and our system. All part of the democrats plan! Vote RED down ticket!!! TRUMP 2024!!! SAVE AMERICA!!!

Expedited northern delivery of us population replacement parts.

Trudeau sucks, but PP won't make it better. He literally is part of the housing crisis. Vote trudeau out yes, but please make sure we actually vote someone in who will actually make a difference. I'm not advocating for who that is, because I'm not really sure yet myself. But I know it's neither of these clowns (trudeau, pp)

Why is our gov. Doing this??? People the gov. Body is under secret terrorist control by holding their families secretly hostage by assassins. \nIt happened in Europe too according to my x-step mom in earlier 2000's. \nShe had once been part of an elite family of Europe. (She had mental health issues and they quietly divorced her). \nShe said they did it to facilitate the invasion of the Muslims for a take over of nations politically.

How are they getting into Canada from India!!!!! Canada's part of the invasion Biden is working with Canada to have our country totally invaded from all sides

What’s the big surprise…it’s also happening all over Europe. White Christians are now a MINORITY in London . It’s all part of some kind of plan . Most of the ‘ refugees’ that have flooded into Europe are young men of fighting age but the media ( BBC , CNN, NEW YORK TIMES etc etc ) will show pictures of crying children or mothers holding their children with tears in their eyes …but that is NOT the reality . The media on the LEFT is manipulating you . WAKE UP …..though I think it’s already too late . ( especially for Europe)

Trudeau has ruined us. Pretty sad that a part time drama teacher who had to resign because he was fooling around with a young student ugh! How does a person like that get in to be prime minister?

Vatican’s plan to accept displaced refugees. This is how they practiced destabilizing other countries and the EU first. All part of the forced Sunday rest global climate warming change agenda.

The funniest part is that the democratic leaders cant say no at this point. they have dug themselves a massive hole by radicalizing the population. They will be branded evil racist republicans if they try to stop it. Cant have New York spouting the same complaints that Texas has with immigrants. They will try to sweep it under the rug until trump is president and then blame him for doing nothing and then again with he tries to fix it.

I can't go to Canada as a tourist without a passport or back into the US. Canada does know. They are part of safe travel centers in other countries. They fly them into Canada, and they can enter the states. It's not just organized crime. ?❤️??
