The area she's talking about on the western part of Canada it's not as diverse as the eastern part like Ontario, I traveled there years ago it's almost like they moved there to get away from other races .

None ABSOLUTELY NON FROM MEXICO FOR THE LAST ALMOST 20 years NOW SINCE OBAMA AND BIDEN ACTUALLY CLOSED THE BORDER AND CREATED THIS FACILITATED ASYLUM PROCESS TO CENTRAL/ SOUTH AMERICA AND THE CARIBBEANERS. (MEXICO is NORTH AMERICA) this is for the ignorant. Learn EDUCATE YOURSELVES WITH FACTUAL TRUE USA ?? HISTORY NOT THE CHERRY PICKED WHITE AND BLACK BS. Before WHITES MILLIONS OF “MEXICANS” populated the USA ?? during and after MILLIONS MORE STILL ECIST NEVER LEFT OUR ANCIENT MOTHER LAND NO MATTER HOW MUCH USA TRAITOR FOREIGN IMPOSTER THIEVES ARE RUNNING THE USA GOVERNMENT

Let's just absolute insanity look at those people running with children on their shoulders it's almost disgusting display I've ever seen and are executive branch president is the one who started this mess his 1st day in office tragic and CRIMINAL

isnt this from almost a year ago?

It’s almost like ya get what ya vote for…

We need to control our boarders, the USA is economically unstable from almost 60 years of this. Its completely untenable. We are no longer a nation of immigrants, its time to take care of our own.

I know what you are talking about. I have been in Edmonton for almost 26 years. I am glad this sister brought this up. It's so bad here. I am moving out of this place this year and I will never come back.

It's almost like we were telling you dim mfs this since 2015

This multiculturalism nonsense is very very recent. I'm under 40 and when I was even in high-school, Canada was almost completely white.

I understand seeking asylum, but it burdens our economic system, health system, and safety. There is a legal way to enter. I moved to Texas 4 yrs ago. I've never seen such a burdened health care system and such low wages for jobs. This has to end. The whole immigration law needs to be revamped. It must be done legally. This is almost like an invasion of the US. Biden will not get my vote. When moving to their country, you need a sponsor, must learn the language, and prove you won't be a burden on their health care system, etc. This is simply not right.

??? If America wanted to stop this today they could without spending one cent! Tell Mexico that until they stop the influx of migrants at our border we will be imposing an 80% tax on ALL money wire transfer remittances to their country! And before you come at me, look at Mexicos biggest GDP! And it isn’t avocados! Remittances now surpass almost all other sources of the country’s foreign income, including tourism, oil exports and most manufacturing exports. That’s accounting the AP February 1 2023

When you say that Canada is more liberal than America, for who, though? They are not more liberal for blacks they are more liberal for the white race, period. Blacks are looked down on in almost every nation of the world. It is so wrong and so sad! It's a shame that what has gone on 400 years ago during slavery and the civil rights era has come back full circle. Hatred against us won't stop. And i'm sad for this generation of young black people who have to deal with it head-on and for the older generation who has to re-live this ugly monster all over again. Lord, please help us!?

Almost feel like being an American citizen has lost all value.

Almost like they're overrunning the capitol

Its almost like watching Elysium...

USA is the only country that doesn't have a huge military presence on their borders, as well almost no wall for protection. Pepper balls anyone.

For all you little snowflakes who are mad about these people supposedly being abused, keep in mind that in almost every other civilized country with secured borders, people trying to violently force their way across would be shot and killed or at the very least, imprisoned and deported. Unless your willing to let a migrant family live in your house with you, you should probably shut up and mind your business. Funny how these illegals have rights and deserve to be here only up until the point that you have to sacrifice something.

I wish Canada did more R&D. We have the talent and brains to be innovative, yet so many of us go work in the oil & natural gas sector because it pays handsomely.\nAlso to live in the most scenic provinces like BC and Ontario is crazy expensive. We moved from AB to BC in 2009 which my parents bought their house for $550,000 that's situated 40km East of Vancouver, and today their house is valued at 1.4 million... almost 3 times the original purchase price in just over a decade. Now an adult, my wife and I were forced to move back to Alberta and leave our families because we simply cannot afford to rent there nor ever have an honest shot at saving enough money to buy our own place. It is what it is and I'm sure it's a common theme that's not only exclusive to Canada, but man, it does sucks. I'm happy for any immigrants to move here and call Canada their home too, but many are loaded with money and purchase numerous properties just to then rent it out at an absurd rate because they can. It's fueling the problem worst and making it unfair for the born & raised Canadians.

It's almost like when you block people for 3 years who are in danger in their home country, they end up waiting and building

Crazy how brown people are fleeing other brown people to come to a (racist) county that’s capitalist. It’s almost like leftists really have no idea what they’re talking about.

Why are theses immigrants so desperately wanting to flee into the United States. Its almost like something or someone is after them.? Why. What is happening in Mexico to where they are so frighten they must flee to the United States as though it will be their safe haven. Something is very wrong and disturbing about that.

I cant believe cnn is showing this, they've ignored it completely and said it was fake news for almost 3yrs

It's almost as if we need a wall of some sort ?

Somebody should really tell these people they’re jumping onto a sinking ship ? The USA is on the verge of collapse ?\n\n Bad times don’t last forever and Good times don’t either. The USA’s good times are almost over. Might as well tough it out abroad.

For those who voted Democrat, this is what y'all did by voting for Biden. \nTrump had the right idea by building the wall. It was almost completed!\nThe moment he was in office he halted construction. \nNow this is the result. \nFJB.

If you don't say that we should bring everyone of those people in here and put them in a hotel and pay for thier food and shelter your a freaking racist. I swear I mean take the shirt off your back america I mean off the backs of the homeless vets. I mean what the hell did they ever do for this country. I mean these people are willing to jump through barbed wire to get free well everything what did anyone here do to deserve anything here. ? I mean they are going to pay so many taxes I'm sure it will probably balance the budget and America won't default and continue to fall into a recession. I mean what we need is hundreds if not hundreds of thousands of undocumented people here eating our taxpayers dollars. Cmon isn't that the American way. Work hard all your life to give it away to some illegal who came here. Nothing makes me more proud than watching the govt take all my shit and give it to people who are really worthy of it. Who come from countries where thier govt makes it almost impossible to live so I would happily give all my material possession away to help like 9 or 10 Mexicans. Granted my house burnt down last week but the shirt on my back it's all yours I don't even need it in most states and local convience stores below the state of Virginia. What we need in this country is voters too. I mean all the people who died of covid who's going to fill the voter polls if the democrats don't give these refugees a free life. I'm certainly not going to sit around and let the govt tell us that we need a wall to stop anyone from going anywhere. I mean walls. They are just going to hop and a boat and come right over. Granted you may have to go through customs but that's what I'm saying you need to be able to go and do what ever you want in any country at anytime. Who's to tell me where I can and can't roam on planet earth and what govt agencies will or will not provide me with care for my unborn child. We need a revolution and it start with walls. I'm going to start with my bedroom wall. And work my way up the ladder. I say no to all walls. Even the ones in swimming pools. I say if your a red blooded patriotic American you need to start planning a trip to the border to tear down that exist racist wall that is keeping those south Americans, Chinese, Russian, and Romanian refugees from coming here with ease. The cartel may not be happy with this but we need to make sure that every person from any country no matter what the situation can freely cross any border at any time. It only makes sense.

This hits close to home. I'm just about finished my engineering degree in Canada, where I was born and raised and my family has lived for 400 years. Outside of Alberta and Sask, nothing is affordable. And Sask is to barren to live in. I will almost certainly look South for work as this country continues to make itself completely unaffordable. As much as I hate to see it, I don't think i see Canada surviving in its current configuration for any longer than half a century.

It's almost like they are running for their lives or something. There are no opportunities for them, they have no future where they are from. The IMF and World banks allready have their countries on the hook for hundreds of billions. The corporations and factories that are in their countries use them as slaves and pay them crap.

Meanwhile I work 40 hours a week and still can't afford a home. I stay in my car and I get harassed by the cops almost every night.

Meanwhile it’s so hard and almost impossible to go through the legal immigration process for work and other stuffs

Wow it's almost like.... A big wall would have stopped this.

Why isn't the government working with the countries where the migrants are coming from? A treaty or an accord should be negotiated with Mexico (even though there's almost 1 million Americans residing in Mexico), Central America and northern South America and stop this mass migration to our border! This should have been done 10 years ago. The border towns will become, are, deportation zones, dysentery, human trafficking and dead immigrants, by the US, murders from infighting or consumption. Unfortunately, there must be some hidden agenda we're not privy to why the obvious deterrent isn't obvious! ?

It’s almost like there’s a legal way to gain citizenship or refugee status and then there’s the illegal way.

CNN reporting this is almost unbelievable. All democrats are shook because Trump was right all along. Now they watch in awe as America is burned to the ground

We can’t find housing cause a estimated 50,000 people A WEEK MAKE IT OVER THE SOUTHERN BORDER ! That’s the ones that actually get threw … take some basic math folks - \n\n50,000 a week x 52 weeks = 2.6 MILLION people a year coming across … okay so what ? \n\nPhoenix Arizona couple years ago was the 6th largest city In the USA WITH 1.65 million population … DO THE MATH… JUST SAY FOR A EXAMPLE THEY ALL STAY IN PHOENIX. PHOENIX WOULF WOULD TRIPLE ALMOST IN SIZE EVEDY YEAR … \n\nWe can’t afford housing now ! Why? There isn’t enough houses or apartments available so supply and demand. Demand skyrockets and so does price - what do you think happens when we triple our population in a year ? Rent WILL BE MORE THEN NEW YORK… and that doesn’t even touch the traffic as our roads and freeways weren’t built to sustain 4 million people, AND THE WORST OF ALL… our water … we’re all ready having to do severe cut backs cause we’re draining the Colorado river and lake mead and lake Powell … we would kill our natural resources within years …\n\nAnd sorry to say but that many immigrants that fast - in one year . Mexicans would be the dominant population no question by double … they don’t have insurance, speak English , there culture is drastically different … just look at what small amounts can do to certain areas … I know I don’t want my houses in my neighborhoods painted yellow, pink, and merrachi music blasting till 3 am from every neighbor - I say that cause it literally just happened to me as I had to sell my house cause several houses were bought up around me and swathes of them moved in and the entire neighborhood did a 180 real fast… and who do you think pays for every single one of them and there food cards , health insurance , there WIC baby money , there school, there housing .. YOU YOU YOU

This is because Biden allowed so many in, as Governor Abbott and Governor DeSantis have allowed or transferred many into the United States. When people like myself have done things legally and yet waiting for the system to have my fiance wait for almost two years while these people come in running like cattle. Where the hell is Harris and why is she so mum? Why the hell did Biden pick a lazy VP when there was so many great candidates, but the Afro Americans cried for a black VP, but this VP does nothing.

As a Canadian, let me tell you, most of these issues stem from our very poor choice in government ATM, for almost 10 years Justin Trudeau has been our prime minsiter & has done very little besides raising taxes too actually help low income Canadians, I'm on of them, i barely make $20k a year & i live with my parents, its tough & i don't think i'll ever own a house:(

Canadian business culture and government regulation encourages mediocrity and conformity, and boat rocking of any form is viewed as almost heretical.\nYou are expected shut up, do the same thing you did yesterday, and pay 4 different layers of taxes. Nothing more, nothing less.

You can see in almost every graph the exact moments when Trudeau started to mess everything up

Canada has excessive 80% foreign population growth, government supplied suicide and almost double debt to income.

In 2009 I questioned if I could ever own a home but I was still working hard at my career and had some hope if I met the right women to marry. Then along came Justin Trudeau. Within 2 years of his goverment that dream faded fast. Everything I saved and my individual salary still wasn't enough. Property taxes and carbon taxes make it absolutely impossible here in southern Ontario even far a small home not without trying. I always get out bid on the 316 homes I tried to purchase. I can't pay 30%-70% above market value on a single income. Turning in my pensions isn't even an option. I'm not gambling away my retirement with current crrupt Liberal goverment that continues to raise taxes. To give some an idea just how single parents are crushed on taxes. I pay 53% of my income on taxes and get almost nothing back when filing my taxes cause I work hard and excel in my career. I get punished for being a hard work and risking my life to do so. Living in Canada has gotten gradually worse and worse the last 8 years. The socialist way of life isn't good. Now the writing is on the wall that it's becoming a communist country. I'm now searching for employment opportunities south of the border to give my child the best chance to making her dreams a reality. Canada isn't giving me any other options. If everything works out in the US I will surrender my Canadian citizenship at the earliest availability. It breaks my heart but I just can't allow them to enslave me and my child as she becomes an adult. Slavery is the only way I can describe the last 8 years. Also to top it all off 6 if the last 8 year's basic goverment services have been extremely unstable making doing business with Canada very frustrating. Getting a passport during this time has been delay after delay. Finding a family doctor that is stable almost impossible. \n\nCanada's economy status looks good from a far but its really far from good. Our goverment is literally paying 10s of billions in tax dollars to draw auto makers here and to even keep them here. Just further proof the economic future is very unstable. Probably even more so then the housing market. \n\nOur PM isn't even hiding his goverments level of corruption anymore. He actually brags about it at home and on the world stage. \n\n\nI worry about my future more then planing for it. Hopelessness has definitely set in. Now I'm in damage control by no fault of my own to make sure no possible debt are passed on to my daughter in the next 25 years when I'm gone. Even that is looking to be unachievable in my particular situation. It's my worst nightmare to leave my kid with any owing debts.

Almost as if they're asylum seekers, not illegal immigrants. Come on CNN, this rhetoric is why the UK media is turning into a fascist shithole - why is one of the few credible US sources going down that slope too?

Didn’t even get into the stupid inter provincial fighting (vetoing pipelines, etc). The country has also suffered from a perpetual identity crisis and for too long prided its self on not being American while being an almost identical twin to its neighbour down south. \n\nThis unexceptional display of a weak identity and economic brain drain show why merging with the us is the answer long term. \n\n“It’ll never happen!” Mentality is a testament to the lack of creativity and big ideas needed to advance that’s cemented into people’s minds here. \n\nThe video highlighted that well.

Canada is far better than UK in almost every aspect.

ഹൊ നസ്രാണി പെണ്ണുങ്ങളുടെ വിഷമം പോലെ ഉണ്ടു.I.can feel. From Indias Kerala state all Christian house hold girls want to go abroad..\nThey almost desperate like this.

It seems that Canada is not a successful and prosperous country. It has become almost impossible to buy a house by working. it takes millions of immigrants but there are already millions of unemployed in the country, do they take so many immigrants to fill the empty lands, yes, but immigrants are not filling materials

Reg patents @ 6.12, USA filed almost 17X number of applications than Canada according to 2021 WIPO data. Also China filed 3X that of USA. Patents per person may not be a great parameter for measuring innovation. It's the nurturing of intelligent minds, innovation platform, and focussed Gov support that matter. Also, the invention aspects of individual patents matter more than mere numbers of incremental innovations.

Shameful act. Almost all governments allow to carry it on airplane, including US. Why not on campus? They have crazy laws!

Asalam alaekun warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu.Your humility is second to none.you answered almost all questions here.May Allah continue to strengthening you.I love you ma

the god awful real estate market has taken full effect on Canadians, it has displaced families, caused almost no one to have children, removed hope from younger generations and many many more challenges for business and residents. if some way it could be fixed then our country would prosper again, but its hard living here when household income is less than 100k on average yet the average home price in Ontario is 850k...
