This is all fine and well, but people always tend to forget anyone other than first nations populations are allll immigrants lol

two reasons why no demographic problem: 1) AI and robotics.. in the next 20 years human labour will be drastically reduced and people will be working 2-3 day weeks or just paid national basic income to do nothing 2) massive advances are happening in anti age drugs.. experiments done on mice using same pathway that exists in humans shows that this intervention given at 55 will expand youth-span by 25% of a lifespan. We should be helping countries develop.. but not importing vast numbers.

That is true ?? Indian stole the your jobs it is very horrible and sad they not create job they steal jobs of their nation that is very bad

canada is a nation that kills its young for the population replacement agenda\nit used to just be the indians then it became the indians and the colonials - white kids being wiped out .\nndp government tax credits used to remove people from the unions \nunion dues going to the bc ndp \nis it like money laundering \n- twinning a stream of union dues from the members - for the bc ndp

there are 57 Muslim nations, Sad too see no one is helping poor Muslims

mass immigration from low wage more corrupt nations has ruined canada

You should leave fast. Canada ?? doesn't need cry babies who ONLY want the benefits without hardwork. Canada is a nation built be hardworkers under rain, sun, snow and brutal cold.

The Saudis have no concern for GAZA or any other nation. War raises oil prices and its used to feed the WAR machine. They make billions more every time there is a conflict.

This makes the difference between Canada and India, In India every one are respected.....we say our guests as our gods ( narayan)....but in Canada...!!! wooow \nEVEN AFTER TRYING A LOT CANADIANS CAN NOT BE LIKE INDIA ( it may be a Highly developed nation ) by in terms of ethical values , we are the no 1

We have too many Europeans here. We need to encourage more Africans to immigrate to Canada. Would add to the wonderful diversity of this nation. ??

( The nation with less than 4 crores of population talking about a nation with 140 crores + of population ) LOL\n\nBy the way if we Indians stop Migrating to Canada then I think Canada's job market is gonna collapse....

Its not just Canada but actually all the Western Nations are undergoing deep economic crisis. It won't matter where you go in the West it will be the same. The hegemony the West enjoyed for so long due to their exploitation, rape and pillage of other nations has finally come to an end. The standard of living they enjoyed for so long will be gone forever and the so called 3rd World nations or the Global Majority will finally be able to enjoy a higher standard of living as they gain sovereignty and join organisations such as BRICKS or BRI.

The Palestinians have been kicked out of all those Nations before for their terrorist ways but no one likes the truth so you won't hear that

Your votes are important people! Choose a responsible gov't. Not one so willing to throw money around to those who dont work for it and print more and allow things to fall apart right before their eyes. I'm sad for Canada, this once great nation is in a state I never thought I'd see. I too am ready to move elsewhere. Family is holding me here, for now.

Saskachewan has the Cote nation. My family name from Normandy france. The chief name is Gabriel Cote. By chance this is my mothers name. Lol! What a co insidence!

It's much simpler. They need workers but they don't like foreigners. Why? Because 1940s far right nationalism is still a popular feeling. Some of them have grandparents who were party members so it`s no wonder.

Typical politician refuse to answer the simple question ..why the Arab nations won't take in palestine refugees is because they are to radicalized for even them

As a struggling Canadian that my own gov hates and despises, I feel I'd be better off if I left the nation and returned to claim asylum under a false name.

As a First Nations member .Seeing Aboriginals homeless and letting others to come and drain are resources .I get upset that our government will help others ,but not our own .I pity the future generations

Two Nations theory is best .

We should more money to Israel and Ukraine.\nThose who talk Against it are anti-nationals.

Just DON’T move to the U.S.!!!\nThis nation is a F’ING MESS!!!

In Canada, there was no problem with immigrants till one nation citizines immigrated there in mass numbers and make life hard.

These nation enjoy from other countries trained and skilled labors they never spend a single penny on HR and training

I completely ageee this place was far more peaceful before 2018 now I can’t take transit I can’t enjoy Brampton I can’t enjoy Dundas square and even gyms have become too smelly to go to ?? and other nationalities don’t hire their own as much as Indians do it’s really become too much in Toronto Vancouver Ottawa n Calgary too now smh ? India is rising anyways so many start ups so many multi nationals there now 3rd largest economy soon

Quraish and Israel in Israel inside Quran is the same, where as on Israel we already understand about the Quraish they change Muslim World into Dynasty a leader of religion and leader of a nation descendant from grandfather to father son and grandson, you think by your sanity how come a religion leader and nation combined into a family root

I see all hindi and gujarat speaking people spoling the nation. And loet of turnbans

This country is being ruined. Stop voting liberal, in municipal, provincial and federal levels. Nor NDP. They ruin everything in their communism. The economy relies on a healthy nation.

But, but, Trudy took all our sporting rifles away and we can't buy and sell handguns that we used to use for target shooting. How can housing, medical services and the safety of our street be nothing but perfect? All jokes aside: I too have watched in anguish as these social engineers have destroyed our country. And, they are not done yet. You won't believe the horrible future they have imagined for us. Think N. Korea, Hunger Games, 1984. No one took the time to understand or listen to our voices of warning over the years. People promoted prohibition not realizing the license to violence it gave government and now, they are coming for your freedom and your nation is in ruins. All of you were warned.

But for some Chinese who have been brainwashed by Western media, they think Canada and the United States are simply paradise. If possible, they would even like to exchange nationality with you.?

Immigration is not always a problem.\nThe government simply needs to be much more selective of who is allowed in, and from which countries.\nImmigrants into Western nations need to come from other Western nations, not the 3rd world. Compatibility matters.\nOn top of that, the immigrants need to be selected based on what they offer the host nation, NOT the other way around.

I think most people would not mind immigrants in principle\nBut the issue is the amount and the legality of it\nYou now see anti-immigrantion everywhere because of the sheer number and all the illegal crossing of borders\nIf immigrants and asylum seekers are accepted at a number which the receiving nation is okay with and through an official process\nI think there would not be so much backlash over immigrants\nBut now the illegal immigrants just illegally entering the country and the number keeps getting higher and higher

Dirtiest nation and people ever, get out of Canada u all. I want the government to introduce a new rule stops coming these filthy people to Canada

The future is uncertain, no matter where you live. People often expect their country to provide stability and resist change, but these are difficult promises to keep. Just look at Ukraine.\n\nCanada, too, may be failing its citizens in some ways. It doesn't seem to inspire a deep sense of patriotism or love for the country. Many are distracted by the allure of greener pastures, lured by promises and travel ads. There's little gratitude for those who sacrificed their lives a century ago or those who built the safe, secure nation we have today. Instead, they are often labeled as colonizers, with their statues torn down.\n\nPerhaps the concept of a nation is fading. But if you drift away, you may find yourself replaced, and no one’s going to say, “How dare you!”\n\nPopulations are becoming fluid, and countries are no longer rigid containers. Moving to a new place might not be as meaningful if the concept of nations dissolves.\n\nA nation is more than just borders; it’s an accounting system. Consider this: How long do you need to work in a country to earn a pension? In the USA, it’s 40 years. If you haven’t put in the time, you might be leaving money on the table. As a retiree, I say thanks!\n\nBut will you ever collect that pension? I am. I spent two years in the USA and returned. My parents had health problems—remember them? They didn’t work 40 years in the USA either. And those Canadian dollars don’t stretch far in the States. Tricky, eh!\n\nSometimes, countries struggle to manage pensions. The country might be too big, its borders too porous, its economy too fragile, and its people too ready to abandon it. Yet, Canada’s natural resources, like Ontario’s 20% of the world’s fresh water, guarantee its revenue. That will be gold soon enough, and you can bet the USA, the global superpower, will want a piece of it.\n\nThe immigrants coming to Canada are smart.

Instead of whining about the country that has given you so much greely, how about getting off your but and do something to improve it:\nCook for the poor\nRaise funds for the disadvantaged\nSeek a role in local, provincial or national government.\nStop running around sounding like a spoiled brat.

Haha palestinians wants to leave but hamas and other arab nations won't let them leave...

This reporter obviously doesnt know palestinian history.\n\nArab nations did help palestinians. And many of these Arab nations are stil rebuilding from the havoc and chaos palestinians terrorists caused.

So USA and NATO causes chaos in other nations , encourages coupes etc and expects migrants to go to Arab countries because they are Arab ? ???

Germany is a weird country, which kinda defines the people too, hopefully I'm not offending anyone.\nGermans that decide to live abroad say the same thing for their nationals that live in Germany.\nThe fact that they don't talk much is psychological,they don't know how to relate to other people,like human robots,is a cultural issue

The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 (The McCarran-Walter Act)\nThe Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 upheld the national origins quota system established by the Immigration Act of 1924, reinforcing this controversial system of immigrant selection.\nAt the basis of the Act was the continuation and codification of the National Origins Quota System. It revised the 1924 system to allow for national quotas at a rate of one-sixth of one percent of each nationality’s population in the United States in 1920. As a result, 85 percent of the 154,277 visas available annually were allotted to individuals of northern and western European lineage. The Act continued the practice of not including countries in the Western Hemisphere in the quota system, though it did introduce new length of residency requirements to qualify for quota-free entry.

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.

I suggest only bringing in those from white Christian nations.

America under #TRUMP would love to have all you expats come here and become legal. once we deport all the illegal invaders, we will make America great again, and we will help you FIX CANADA so you can return your country to a wonderful country again too. let's get this done, patriots. we can't have our nations become communist.

Because of women vote Harris will win and this will get 1000xs worse. They vote on emotion and jealousy. My country is gone. We will become a socialist nation make no mistake about it. Hitler was right when he said “governments are great full for how STUPID mankind is”

I was very hurt when I went to a Walmart in Brampton, and could not communicate. Then our national anthem was sung in neither french or English. It was sung in Punjabi. It really hurt.

It's a dead nation and a dying country with a broken economy.

''The progressive woke left destroys everything they touch.''...Everything, in every nation.

Canada has become a zombie nation. So sad that such a land with such good people has fallen apart. Marxists rule.

Why import indoctrinated people with opposing racial and religious values who have little to no intention of integrating and adapting to our own national values and culture ?

Leaving may solve your problems but only for very short time, because whatever place you end up in, it may be no better, and good deal worse, since you won't be a citizen there. Remember too, that Europe and US are all afflicted with the same WOKE, antidemocratic malady destroying Canada. The only sure way to improve situation is by staying, standing up and fighting (legally, and non violently if possible) for what you believe. There must be more of people who feels like you.\nBut I have to say something bitter to you and all those thinking about leaving.\nCanada was a good place for you for years, like a good Mother. But now when the country is in deep troubles you won't even consider standing up and defending Her. Instead you'd rather pack up and leave. This shows to me, that you don’t feel like a Canadian. Deep in you heart, you still feel like an immigrant with no roots, no home and no stake in the fight. After all those years.\nDon't you see? This is exactly why WOKE monsters who grabbed power in Canada and other democratic countries so love immigrants and crank immigration up beyond reason and capacity. \nSo there is more people with mindset like yours. When things get hard, they either will run away from fight or cast their lot on the side of oppressors.\nOr not?\nOr maybe you'd rather see Canada becoming a good place as She was before, back in old days when She took you in, offered good future and safety to grow up? Fighting for Her now, when it is being ripped apart by evil, it’s a right thing to do. It's called giving back.\nReal citizens, belonging to the nation and the country understand it. But you don’t seem to grasp it. \nPerhaps it is a business person selfish mindset too, I don’t know. \nI know that thankfully most of people understands it. For most part unprivileged ones, those working and paying taxes and even those who were treated in worse way by country that should care for them, and parents of children whose future is now in great danger, they will not flee. They will fight for their countries, wherever they are at this moment.\nMe, I will fight for Ireland, as it is going to hell too.\nSo, God bless people of Canada. Fight for Her and your homes and your future, because enemy is at the gates and he is real and powerful one. He will not stop until he corrupts your beloved Canada into shade of it, something you will not even recognise, unless he is stopped. By you.
