Why don't they just go to countries like Russia and Ukraine and Israel they are needed there

I’m an immigrant, I’m proud of my heritage and where I came from but I assimilated. This is Canada not India, Iraq, Pakistan, Ukraine or whatever other country you came from. If you don’t want to assimilate, go back to the country you came from.

Biden would never let this happen at our borders. Sorry I meant Ukraines borders.

It is horrible that we are seeing an increase in homelessness, drugs, and declone of heslthcare system. The rich don’t pay their fair share in taxes just loop hole tax invasion with charities. People go in debt for an education. People on single parent Disabikity or Welfsre incomes besides minimum wage are closer to the poverty line since the Inflationery hike’s incline to decline. Doctors and teachers don’t make enough to keep up with inflstion. There are family doctor shortsges. We have a heslthcare crisis but not like the Ststes, we have long wsiting hours for nurses and doctors, rent is too high and enpensive, petro might go back to $2 per litre like 2022 following the initiation of the Russo-Ukrainian war, housing is $20000 more expensive in Canada than the USA, immigrsnts and permanent residences are leaving, we almost had a housing bubble like 2007(USA), we spend too much in taxes, our social net isn’t working, we have low production compared to to the USA, we have a population pocket, we have increase rent cities, we have an incompetent PM, we have carbon taxes that cost more on utilities and petro with rebates thst only gives us Pennies or jnickled to the kids these days, and we have over spending in foreign conflicts like Ukraine when fuck Ukraine and Israel/Palestone they can fight their own shitty battles than having Fold War II.

Add supporting Israel and supporting Ukraine to the list, we can't afford it either. Canada can't afford to support Israel or Ukraine.

Trudeau is a perfect PM-\n China interference -he thinks it's ok!\nCarbon tax-more money in his pockets-\nThe We charity scandal-everything black out\nImmigrations - overload\nCrimes-catch and release in one day\nDrugs-Weeds stores are more then Tim Hortons-20,000 Canadians are dying of overdose\nArrive scam-60 million dollars don't know where the money goes from the 2 clowns\nHousing-triple the price-renting from 700/month-now 1500$\nInviting a Nazi into the house of common-he did not know\nStand behind democracy-yet he runs the country like China\nSupporting Ukraine-yet he claim the Russians will win the war!\nA perfect PM for our country everyone!

Pierre should not be afraid to talk about the war in Ukraine. The majority of Canadians don't care about it. Ask Trudeau to be accountable for every dollar he sent to Ukraine: He doesn't have a clue about how our tax dollar are spent in Ukraine. More Trudeau's corruption!

Why every countries issue is Canada's problem? For eg: Trudeau keeps saying no one cares about what's happening in Ukraine. Why Ukraine is Canada's problem? Why our tax money goes to Ukraine? Let Ukraine takes care of its own problem. Stupid Trudeau has no right to play with our tax money on foreign issues period. This Trudeau guy is a pure psycho. Canada is falling apart and becoming worse than 3rd world counties and yet this Trudeau worries about Ukraine and imposing bull shit taxes on Canadians like carbon tax what environmental change has he done with carbon taxes? Every country in the world doesn't have carbon tax so what this Trudeau trying to do with climate change when the rest of the world don't give a damn? Trudeau is not just a psycho but a brainless and corrupted piece of s***. He must go home immediately or go live in Ukraine.

Trudeau should be deported, either to Eastern Ukraine or Gaza.

The level hypocrisy ? how many Palestinians were rejected when trying to cross into Egypt? Europeans help Ukraine but still open up there borders to received women and children!

Indian nationals either dying for Russia in Ukraine or lining up in Mexico trying to enter the US.

I want to help you but I don’t have money and I live in Ukraine

All the money that went to Ukraine, could have helped this situation. Plus if all politicians are millionaires! How would they know what poor folks are going through! Canada if fake! Just a lot of talk and no action.

Your husband is so supportive and love the connection between you two. You guys talking about the cold reminds me of my uni days in Ukraine. I had a first degree frost bite and cried at the delivery service while picking up my package. But i got used to the cold weather and stopped wearing thermal wear underneath my pants. You both will get used to it as well. All the best to you both lovely couples

I may receive a lot of criticism for my opinion, but I feel compelled to share my experience as a resident and worker in this country. I immigrated to Canada from Ukraine in 2022 and have since been living and working in Winnipeg. This country has offered me numerous opportunities, even though I do not hold high-ranking positions. My wife and I are able to save a bit of money for unforeseen expenses. Just when I started to feel settled and thought that things were going quite well, I encountered numerous videos claiming the opposite, particularly highlighting the scarcity of affordable housing. \n \nDespite the prevalence of such content, my personal experience differs. I pay $725 for housing with a salary of $2.3K, which I find to be a reasonable balance. Some might say I was fortunate, but affordable housing ranging from $800 to $1000 is readily available in Winnipeg, and this is just one city's example; there are many other cities across Canada. \nFrom my perspective, the issue of housing affordability is overstated and not solely attributable to the country's policies. Such scenarios can occur in any nation if half the population desires to reside within 4% of its land area (namely, Toronto and its vicinity), leading inevitably to soaring prices – that's simply economics. \n \nIt's not my place to dictate how Canadians should live, but it appears to me that the crux of the problem lies in the uneven distribution of the population. As the second-largest country globally, Canada can comfortably accommodate 40 million people or even significantly more. However, this necessitates a collective understanding that concentrating the population in a single city may not be the most prudent approach.

They do and so let Ukraine be example that there must be changes made repeating history an indication. The end of all wars apon us through decisions infinite choices to be made but in doing so peace made with knowing cooperation is bright by conceding. It is humble rather than self servent

What a wonderful thing! Your leaders are spending bn dollars on ukraine war. Instead of improving the living conditions of its citizens, Justin delivering tall talk.

Ukraine

Liberal Government and Justin is responsible for this mess and economical disaster. We need this money to support living here in Canada than Ukraine or any other country. We don’t. Red more carbon tax.

No one is focused on Ukraine ?? people are focused only in Gaza ??, this is not fair.\n what is the difference between Russia ?? and Israel ??.

But I keep hearing 1000s of migrants leaving Canada regularly. is it not the war in Ukraine and the poor people getting over taxed rent prices gasoline prices cost of living ? Why not just vote NDP . Time for people to start investing ETF , Amazon might be the only way to survive other than that go live in cheaper countries. Europe is finished USA is finished. I still think Canada has a chance.

It’s every where! Thanks Ukraine for not seeking peace..World downfall!

are you all naive ignorants or liars. Why don`t you admit that all of this has been conceived and orchestrated - all over the world. Except in Russia - because they had experienced a big junk of the whole misery already in the 90 ìes. But now they are doing much better, thanks to a decent (non -woke christchian ?) elite (maybe, I hope so) ?. Btw: almost a 100 years ago, part of my german ancestors fled from the communist (80% jewish) terror in Ukraine to overseas Saskatchewan, merely to save their skin. Nowadays it might be better for the rest of them to fllee back to Putins Russia. ? P.S: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_NOWkkyQmA

It would be nice if the Liberals stopped sending billions to the UKraine and instead helped New Canadians and struggling Canadians.

This is Dictator Trudeau's sunny ways. Dictator Trudeau gave us poverty and homelessness but he gave billions of our tax dollars to Ukraine

All these is cause of the government and tradeau. All those money he \nIs giving to ukraine and other countries, he can give to the Canadians\nand not the people that are coming to Canada (immigrants). \nPierre is gonna hopefully stop all of this.

If Trudeau spent 1/10th of the $ he sent to Ukraine all homeless in Canada would be solved

If russia attack ukrain should ukrain defend themselves or should europian countrues take them and let russia win?

Pains me so deeply. I work at a Hotel. Without going into detail, we house so many refugees from Sudan, Nigeria, Ukraine etc. completely for free. They are all lovely people for the most part don't mistake my meaning, but I seldom hear of such programs addressing widespread actual Canadian citzen homeless housing, nor have any of the refugees at my Hotel been Canadian citizens born and raised who were granted asylum. \n\nThe other day I had to kick out a homeless gentleman from my hotel who was sleeping in the heated stair-wells. My manager instructed me to contact the non-emergency police number and get them to escort him out and/or possibly trespass him. He was compliant, not rude and understanding and wasn't causing any property damage or bothering anyone, nor consuming drugs or anything of the sort. It pained my heart and it reminded me of the risks I may face in the future considering how fucked the housing is.\n\n100%, and I mean 100%, of the new employees we've hired in the Hotel are Indian students here on student-visas, or refugees (many Ukrainians and one African lady). And 0% of the people being housed at my Hotel are Canadian born citizens. Disgusting mess of a country with all thanks owing to J.T.

Bringing in immigrants will cause our dollar to be destroyed, having to take care of all of them as well as sending billions to Ukraine or any other unnecessary war to inflate the dollar. FINANCIAL STRESS!!!

They literally flooded Local 183 labor union with fighting age male ukranian refugee's and let them in for 1$, ive paid nearly 800$ TWICE to get into the union since i phased out once as a kid. If there's some crazy war why are all these 27-35 year old soldiers coming across the world from the Ukraine to work CANADIAN construction jobs.

Ok?so, we are so full of debt that we are screwed but we have taken in over a million immigrants & send millions to Ukraine, etc…I don’t don’t get it

It’s sad to say and thanks to the political climate and the culture these ideologically captured schools and universities perpetuate, you will be branded a xenophobe or racist if you raise concern about the flood of immigrants coming in this country that suck the social services. \nTrudeau knew what was going to happen when he open the borders for them and he won’t ever acknowledge the havoc caused as a result. He’ll continue to trumpet climate change and Ukraine and praise his party for their “investments” into any particular problem that give a penny and take a pound. Fuck Trudeau and the liberal party. They pray on the peoples good will and desire to tackle social issues and to help others merely for votes to stay in power while simultaneously destroying the systems that are used to do so all in so they can be on ctv and pat themselves on the back and say “look how much we’re doing for Canadians” a SICK and SINISTER display of ignorant vanity.

You pay income tax up to 55% and 15% tax on all goods you buy. And if you buy a 15 years old car, they will make you pay 15% tax on the value of red book. And pay property tax, and tax on gas.... And all that billions are going to Ukraine and Isra+hell. All this and the government don't have enough money and want more!!? All this and the health system is sh*t!! All this and the government wants to indoctrinate your kids!! To my experience, this kind of system has no mercy on citizens, and too strict on taking your money and life, no chance for the wicked if you become unproductive you become a waste. So, with all this taxation, you think you'll have great savings for retirement? With all this, it is worth risking your health in those kinds of hospitals? It worth spending you life and savings on kids that will grow by government values that moral-less ??? Hell no.

Fix the government & stop showing the world that Canada is safe heaven for rest of the world. I have seen Ukraine refugees taking money from Canadian gov later leaving back once the money is finished. I have seen people coming to Canada with Gov 40-50K once that is finished they leave. Safe supply is a joke while government is legalizing heroine. Addicted person will not blame the the drugs. They will always find someone else to blame. Fix housing. Stops Blaming students and migrants for your own issues. Drugs are free for addicts and then blaming for skilled people trying to make it here. They are trying make better life and contribute + they have to pay taxes for this nonsense. What they get is racisms. While US people are straight to your face and tell you everything on your face. But Canadian people pretend to be open. But they stab you in the back.

The faster we Ukrainians win russia the faster everything will come back to normal in the world. People keep forgetting that everything is connected. Now a lot of Ukrainians come to Canada due to very easy visa, and the majority of us don't like Canada at all but we really don't have any other choice. So keep donating to Ukraine, honestly. :)

Slava Ukraine \nCanada strong and free?

??REAL TRUTH THE ??GOVT USES TAX$ FUND FOR CENSORSHIP #FORCE_FEDS_BBC_FAKES_NEWS TO LIE ?ABOUT THE TRUTH & SEND TO SUPPORT THE NAZIS IN UKRAINE TO BOMB INNOCENTS PEOPLE

Poilievre has said on camera that he wants more immigration that what Trudeau currently has in place. He also wants more money to Ukraine than Trudeau. Our government is corrupt, entirely. I don't think any amount of voting is going to fix our country.

Stop sending the Ukraine. Money. The immigration game is a lie. We do not have housing or medical care.

Good info....instead of funding Ukraine etc. with billions the Govt. should first look in their own backyard .... IMO....

Why Arab can help Ukraine .there cannot help Palestine

the supports of hamas the supports of socialism the supports of Ukraine russia the supports of BLM the supports of defound police

Best example that the arab world doesn't care about the dead children. We have different sensitivity to the subject and arabs know that. The more civilians die the weaker western support is. They encourage this suffering. When Russia attacked Ukraine, Poland opened the borders for the women and the children. It doesn't mena that Poland supported the invasion. It's the humane thing to do...something this gentleman will never understand because a life of an unknown woman means nothing to him

Forget housing , we stand with ukraine !

Immigrants are moving, and Canada will be land of refugees. Syrians, Palestinian, Afghani and Ukraine…

Yeah it's not just immigrants it's also born here Canadians. We are tired of the state of country, our lack of freedom and democracy, our failing healthcare and healthcare facilities, laughable education system, lack of infrastructure for new comers and Canadians alike. No party in Canada, neither Liberal, Conservative, NDP and Green, no one really represents Canadians and really listens to the public. We learned there is NO future here for us or our family. We're done with a country that I pay taxes too, believed in, it's not my fault that I have to leave, it's CANADA and decades of bad policies, investing in wars instead of our home and people. Trudeau spent more time demonizing anti-vaxxers and truckers and funding Ukraine rather then helping starving Palestinians and Congolese people, families struggling here locally to feed their family, kids are who aren't getting a proper education, elderly unable to pay for their medicine or food. We are all suffering because no one in our govt wants to actually help our country get back on track. So our govt is essentially pushing us OUT. We don't want to leave, we have no choice.

Why not Europe taking Ukrainians and giving Ukrain to Russia

Stop wasting money on Ukraine and take care of our country. This is ridiculous. Our president is lost for real.

The Canadian government, including its departments and agencies responsible for immigration and citizenship, appears to lack empathy for individuals who immigrate to Canada in pursuit of their dreams and a better life. It is incomprehensible that the immigration department takes more than two to three years to process applications for permanent residency or citizenship. Instead of addressing the delays, they offer excuses such as the impact of Covid-19 or conflicts like the one in Ukraine. Meanwhile, applicants endure significant mental stress and hardship during this prolonged waiting period, unable to secure suitable employment or pursue education. Government officials seem indifferent to these struggles, leaving individuals feeling helpless and frustrated. The situation feels dire, with no avenue for recourse or resolution.
