Building manager in West end Vancouver here:\n2 bed 1 bath is going for 3700/month ? \nThis is disgusting and needs to end. I wouldn't even live here if I didn't get free rent for my job. The rich get richer

Money talks with Michael Campbell has covered the cost of govt red tape on new builds for several years. The cost runs more in the 25-30% range.

I want to ask : why cant housing regulations be changed and instead of 2 floor houses , 4 or 8 floor buildings are made , the fsr and proper parking shall ensure quality of life

why would any person with a brain move to Canada it seems like hell on earth. Everything extremely over priced its not that great its what America has been going through for years just on a larger scale. When you build your economy on socialism and government control what do you really expect. The smart people are going leave and watch this country be stuck with very few people the way it's going. The smart immigrants are leaving the people with enough money to get out are going to go anywhere outside that country. Canada is the definition of a nation that will collapse at some point.

Dear Arab World, to build peace you need peace making tools. Build one, be a global nuclear superpower, be independent. Don't you want that? By the way do you even realize that they say you are not united. Do you realize that they are mocking you? Do you realize that with all the luxuries you have, you are weak? Do you realize that?

There are tons And tons of humanitarian aid, but all help is stolen by Hamas and their supporters for building tunels below hospitals, schools ect....

Washing hands is easy. Arabs are busy to build Euorpe in KSA

The Liberal party has turned Canada into sh*thole. Canada was built on immigrants but the system has been completely overloaded and taken advantage of. Refugees are being housed in hotels wracking up hundreds of millions in costs. And the international student loophole has been completely abused. Before Canada would allow highly skilled / educated immigrants to esteemed universities. Now we let in double the students and most of them are in diploma mills which they get out of and end up taking up every unskilled labour position, pushing thousands of Canadians to the street and making it to where kids can’t even get summer jobs. And letting in this massive increase of immigrants has only made our housing situation even worse. We’re building half the homes than people we’re allowing in. The whole thing is a sh*t show

Friend lives in a small town. She was excited that there was a new Dairy Queen opening up. Figured she could get a part time job there. Nope, Indians bought the building, bought the apartments upstairs, and aren’t hiring anyone because they brought all of their own people. When is this crap going to stop? They are moving into condos now. Only a matter of time before they move their entire families into condo buildings and take the whole thing over. All rental listings on market place in greater Vancouver are Indians. Great country. What a shit hole.

They build their country by looting the oil money of muslim nations now saying muslims to go back so irony lol!

immigration laws need to change and be more selective on which countries they allow in ..they choose not to become citizen but remain pr instead..indulging in all the perks that our for fathers and mothers fough tand died for so their ancestor could continue building this nation

His face is familiar.... he was in a protest in front of a building where an idf's was going to give a speech???? Or is he a professional actor?

Those Canadians who destroyed their lives by taking drugs and bad things. Now they are homeless and giving reasons for migrants. Migrants always build your country and their financial situation as well.

When one India migrates overseas, he will bring his wife, children, parents, his wife's relatives and families, their friends, and the list goes on. They group together, find employment, go to schools, build Indian Hindu or Sikh Temples, own dairies, become healthcare workers, transport workers, and take up all the jobs you can find. These Indians convert your city into another Indian city. ?

Buy some acres of land, dig up the ground, place a 1000 shipping container homeless shelters beneath the land. Build a village of transitional homes upstairs on the land. Build the homes with 3d printing construction technology. Charge below market fair rent so it can help the homeless transition to getting their life together. Land is expensive people naturally would like to profit off it. This way you can still profit off the land and have a real solution to solving homelessness. It will take a 1000 people off the street inside of shelters and clean up the street. Repeat and rinse until no more homeless. There should be underground shelters and transitional homes all over the city. The government has power and resources to do these things. Or the people need to get together start a non profit organization, pool money and do it themselves.

When I passed my Post Graduation in 70' s from London University ( in Engineering) Canadian Embassy gave me Visa and One way ticket for free. While I was in Embassy waiting .. I saw some colorful journals and green in summer mounds of snow in winter. I had grown up Central Indian Climate. 5 years in England still kept me alienated environ cold weather and Culture. Most disturbing was visible Brown skin foreigners for ever.....at 2nd tier of Society ,..... after getting 4 month Valid visa I started probing fron friends who had earlier migrated to Canada. Living, impediment of long very cold winter, 1970's Canada was still racist and Parliament had strong bill waiting to stop colored immigrants and keep country white...Then in 1975 the Bill was voted down. For the reason that old white generation was aging and demanding Pension and Health Care. Welfare Chest was showing bottom and had to be replenished by tax money. Young tax payers were needed. India, China and Black Carribian were overflowing with young workers...so they had swollow Colored immigrants. Country was the largest but most commercia cities are at border of America, because north is brutal cold. Canada could not build population. 30m (10% of USA.) And Economically behind CA$= 0.80USD. Let the Visa expire...and went back to my old country to Start my Consultancy office. Lived in upper middle class tier and retiring with comfortable cushion to survive . Saw the whole world during past decades of active life... Including Canada US China . Don't regret living among brown people where my roots are. No body looks at me as colored foreigner. This is my personal history..Others have other priorities in life.

I have family in Toronto, and they've told me how difficult it was to evict some Indians who rented units in the buildings they own. They absolutely wrecked their units, turned them into pigsties.

There are thousands of Jesus Christ statues across India, but God forbid they build one Hanuman statue in Canada (which wasn't even Christian until a few centuries ago and has a track record of imposing their religion/culture on Indigenous People).

India is awful. If Canadians saw first hand what India is like, they would be absolutely horrified. The country of India is absolutely trashed very little infrastructure, crumbling buildings, garbage absolutely everywhere. No respect for natural resources \n\nWe are F’ed. And we have allowed it to happen. We built this country, beautiful, we made it what it is and now we can’t even afford to live there. Indians have taken over much of Ontario as if it is their own. Canadians built these communities. Canadians built this infrastructure. For what???!!! For people from other countries to take over as if it’s their own.

I live in the building above that bridge. For 5 years the drug addicts (not homeless) have lit fires 5-10 times per week usually in the summer. Have assaulted police and firefighters and used public parks as a dumping area for syringes and garbage. It makes me sick to see our emergency services squandered on these POS. As you can see the fire pit they have created directly besdie all of the flammable crap the police and firefighters have told us they are not able to remove the flammable items and mattresses - due to it being public property. When in reality this is all property they have stolen from our neighbourhood. It is sickening. Often my neighbours and I wake up having to call the fire department multiple times in the kiddie of tv night or AM and have to keep a constant eye on the Rosedale Valley Ravine to make sure these POS drug abusers don’t burn the entire wooded area down.

Imagine the government building living units for foreigners and not Canadians.

I have only one question. I came here to build a successful career and live peacefully, embracing the local Canadian community and culture. So, because I am ethnically Indian, will you label me as well, like those individuals in Brampton who refuse to adapt to this culture?

True and sad.\n\nThe other truth with Indians is that no matter how many of them get together or live in the same neighbourhood, they never demand special rights and privileges, block streets and sidewalks praying in public like hypocrites, they never hide their faces with burqas and masks, they are not violent, they never protest like the gazans that disrupt normal life, fill the streets with garbage, block traffic, hospitals and airports, never spray paint stores, businesses, government offices and Churches with graffiti, never vandalize residences, businesses and government buildings like the gazans. They are peaceful and mind their own business and gazans and m ohammuduns must learn a lesson from punjabis and Sikhs who came into Canada 150 years ago but never being wild and violent even in 2024 like thug gazans protesting not in gaza but in Canada

Those random matress are actually a code used by the domestic terrorist network..i got a ton of evidence. You could do a whole series on how ill explain how they do this..Countelpro tactics-organised stalking ops-GRIFTER GREED-non profits agencies that don't really exist they just taking grants and renting out their space..i got proof .ill walk you through a week of their game plans against us. Im called a undesirable..yet my last contact with police was 1999..I have been housed since 1999..they usd me for a smart city grid .ill explain..and when I EXPOSED it..they went after me with DEW WEAPONS..electromagnetic frequencies weapons ..while organised stalking ops follow me around the city's and my building uses tenants cleaners and staff to stalk my coming and going..plus 8 attempts to EVICT ME- 3 are illegal..like this one right now April 14-2024

And logistxx security you talked to in this video are in a building across from me and are huge part of the electronic harassment-work with the security in my building as they target me. So they created a system that the ppl we ask for help are the same ppl who's targeting us therfore no stories getting out about how they have cleaned out the homeless people you seen here-are all in Vancouver or elsewhere bc they were forced out as they tried doing this with me and I on my 3rd illegal eviction..

I wonder were all the aid has been going over the years? Im sure Hamas didnt use it to build massive tunnels and missle tubes. Nope. Isreal hasnt let any aid in at all. Its not like 100s of trucks a day isnt going in Gaza and for some reson those trucks dont want to be driven by anyone because Hamas is killing them. Nope, all Isreals fault.

#1 - It's so cold you have to wear 7 layers of clothing 10 months of the year\n#2 - Canadians are more racist than White American's and White Southafrican's put together!\n#3 - You only get 2 weeks paid holiday a year. Human trafficked Indian's in Dubai building skyscrapers in 50+ degree heat ... get a better deal than that!

Not too far from me is a shelter. Once a gigantic Toronto Hydro building now just a gigantic building that houses immigrants.The immigrants in this shelter all originating from Africa. I have yet to see, white, asian or brown exit this building. It houses both women and men. No families with kids..that ive noticed yet. They seem to be treated very well. Everyone looks happy, healthy and full. They enter and exit freely and usually have their best clothes on like they are about to go to church. Food is is delivered to them everyday. Fully cooked meals ready to be eaten.. and im sure brought in multiple times a day. Incredibly gross of Canada

Im an indian and in COMING SOON to canada. I will bring my whole extended family too! We will pack 12 of us into a one bedroom apartment and cook up a huge pot of CURRY every night that will stink up the whole building and you will never get the smell out of the walls. We will practice our indian traditions flagrantly and never even try to learn about canadian culture. Its over for you canadians.

Tearing down churches only to build temples ???

I've been to Mumbai India and it was a complete $hit hole! People pi$$ing and $hitting in the streets and alleys, the river too! Garbage everywhere and the stink was intense. The infrastructure was dilapidated except for the newer buildings, most live in run down old buildings with many in small rooms. They don't care much for cleanliness and hygiene, and that's how they live here. Import 3rd world and turn into world.

Im a legal, qualified migrant. I sweated my ass to be here. It was hard, really, it still is BTW. But this is crazy. You cant accept 1 million people and dont build them housing, schools, hospital. I feel the anger of that man.

Here is my opinion on this video.\n(First of all, I'm not Indian.)\n\n1. Who let them enter this country? Who approved their visas? What are the colleges, and universities issuing more and more study permits, and offer letters for one particular country? Who is taking the responsibility? \nNobody. \n\n2. Who let them build large temples, mosques and statues in this country? Who permitted to celebrate a mass rallying on public roads? Who is permitted to make a loud noise in a public place? \n\n3. Why are so-called Canadians (especially younger) not getting a higher education? Not willing to get a master's, or Ph.D.’s or even high school education. Why they are willing to get minimum-wage jobs? \n\n4. Why do these Canadians depend on social welfare system even if they can contribute their talent, and labour to this beautiful country? \n\n5. Why do we as a country face a lack of productivity issue rather than our south neighbour USA?\n\nI'm also an immigrant who came to this wonderful country (again I'm not Indian). But what I see, is nobody going to take responsibility for this social, economic and political issue. Liberals complain to conservatives, conservatives point to liberals and so on. But I would say both parties and Canadians let them play their games on this soil now they blame each other. \n\nOne last thing, I respect Canadian culture that’s why I'm in this country. If I can’t respect or adopt Canadian culture I won’t stay here and if I am in India I will respect their cultural values from my heart. If not I'm leaving.

When I moved to Toronto 20 years ago, it was more pleasant and people in general was polie and good manners.\nFor the last 10 years and especially the last 5 years, it’s worst and worst.\nDon’t expect someone say Hi to you in your building. Exception, if you have a pet.\nNo one will look behind in case there’s someone for the door.\nEveryone stuck with his community, don’t expect to have discussions with people if you’re not form the same community .\nTake the subway, you see people put their own bag in an empty seat. \nAnd people with feet on the seat.\nIt become a very selfish city, only for me, me, me.\nI travel in differents parts of the world and, Toronto is the most unfriendly city.\nExpensive for apartment, insurance, groceries, cost of living.\nHope it will change again but I have no hope and I prefer to be away as much as I can or move away\n\n.

They must go back!! Deport now and apply properly no more foreign students and build a actual boarder not just a line in the dirt

Don't forget Markham. Like 75% Asian and it looks like Chinatown in many parts, with Chinese letters on all the plaza buildings. North York is overwhelmingly black. Mississauga has areas that are well over 50% brown.

This is the price to be paid. Canada needs desperately imigration, otherwise it will disappear as a nation in 2 or 3 generations.\nBirth rates is too low. Nobody wants kids because life in freezing countries is too expensive due winter gears, hitting, cars, insulation in every building, store or house, gas, salt on streets,  shovelling, mandatory insurance for everything, health care is a joke, and so on. It is endeless. \nCanada is definitely an uninhabitable place. 92% of canadians live very close the US border due the miserable freezing endeless drepressing 9 months cold weather. Nobody wants go north. Freezing weather makes life unbearable and extremely expensive. If we had a free US-Canada border, Canada would  be empty..\n\n.

We’re do they get the money to build all these temples every were . bs

It’s the same in Calgary!!! The entire NE sector is entirely Indian!!! I help build new houses and everyone are being bought by Indian and Punjabi!!???????????

Nothing wrong with East Indian but that massive idol has to be torn down, they can have that in the buildings but this is canada. Agenda 2030 you’ll own nothing and be happy

Moncton is becoming like that. All they are building is apartments.

Feel bad for him but who told him to go and work in west . Not sure why people are spending 50-70 lakh if they are not sure about their future and still want to work as delivery boy . I mean they can build their own restaurant and hire delivery boy in just 30-40 lakh if he is from india.All the best

The building is fine. The topless statue is really disgusting.

Justin Trudeau and Sean Fraser letting in a million Indians to study at strip mall colleges is what caused our housing crisis. i thought we got rid of places like Devry and ITT Tech a long time ago, why are we being flooded with phony diploma mills now all of a sudden? importing millionaires from India and China has out-competed middle class Canadians for housing, you need overseas money or you have to be part of organised crime to own a home in southern ontario now. document fraud seems to be rife in the Indian community, but nobody ever seems to get deported, why is that? i don't think India or China would tolerate a bunch of newcomers breaking the rules in their country, why are we allowing it in Canada? Canada isn't building enough houses for all the people its letting in, our infrastructure is in desperate need of upgrades. we have no rapid transit outside of Toronto. The Liberals are just fleecing new immigrants and international students because they've tapped out the Canadian middle class. Canada needs to limit newcomers to 250,000 a year and put an end to the international student scam. Trudeau's WEF approved immigration policies absorb like olestra and the cost of living is killing Canadians and destroying the dreams of locals and newcomers alike. people have been misled about the type of life they are going to get in Canada and that is sad. the government is lying that everything is fine. cost of living and crime are out of control and the Liberals are the biggest thieves of them all.

Richmond, BC is worse. The apartment buildings are being torn down for mostly empty investment condos. Whites are a tiny minority. Ten years ago a family member tried to mail a parcel at a SDM Post Office but could not as no one spoke English OR French.

Century Initiative Canada says…. Growing our population to 100 million by 2100 would reduce the burden on government revenues to fund health care, old age security, and other services. It would also mean more skilled workers, innovation, and dynamism in the Canadian economy. 100 million by 2100 is not just a number. It’s a vision for the Canada we want to build for future generations. It’s coming whether we like it or not. \n\nIn 2041, if current trends continue, half of the Canadian population will be made up of immigrants and their Canadian-born children.\n\nIn 2041, 1 in 4 Canadians will be born in Asia or Africa.\n\nIn 2041, about 2 in 5 Canadians will be part of a racialized group.

Even in New Brunswick they're building temples near shediac, New Brunswick, buying up land and instituting their values! Disgusting!

This is like empty headed, manufactured evolution. In a couple of thousand years are all true Canadians going to be living in India and over time, build it up until true Indians want to move back? And all by the power of empty headed politicians.

EDIT: It's Ontario building code, but can include other stuff as well.\n\nEssentially, it’s 2 persons per sleeping area. Sleeping areas are bedrooms only, not living areas.\nThen 1 person per 9 square meters (Mississauga + Toronto).

Soon Multi generations, who build the country, will be loading up the wagons again to be forced Out of Our cities and towns to make way for an environmental disaster, as their countries are now and why mass migration is has come full force today.
