Trudeau doesn't care as long as taxpayers are footing the bill.

It’s not racism. Canada is a nation of immigrants. Immigrants are always welcome. The problem is that there is a housing crisis in Canada. Increasing numbers of of Canadians are becoming homeless and ending up in homeless shelters or in tents encampments. There is a belief by many that our government is allowing in ever growing numbers of immigrants while at the same time marginalizing long term Canadians. In addition to a lack of affordable housing, there are not enough jobs. My son, a university student, had trouble finding a summer job. Temporary foreign workers were taking jobs that Canadians would normally do. No wonder there is a def of resentment against immigrants. The Canadian government is at fault for mismanaging both our economy and the imm system.

Why taking so long? This is awful

Smh only In Canada private landlords have no say ..\nIf this was a big company business they would have got excited long time

Rules are rules. Tenant still has the right to a LTB hearing no matter how long the wait time

Long live Canada ??????

why has it taken so long to realise this. whos are the real culprits

People should understand that \nGovernment is not the main actor, only the right hand \nof greedy capitalists \nAs long as they keep demanding access to cheap labor / labor below minimum wage, \nillegal immigration problem will continue \n \nAnd those greedy capitalists are very slick indeed... \nBecause their number is small, so they could move in silent for years

I live in rural Atlantic Canada. There is lots and lots of land not being used. People driving long distances from their huge single family home to get to town or the city. If no Canadians are moving to the country side to start homesteads, then why not immigrants. I don't see the point of someone moving to a local small town to work in a Tim Hortons or not if there is no job available and buy franken foods from huge corporations. Instead if some immigrants want a homesteading life (some probably would), give people grants to make apartments in their huge single family farmhouses left from the days when people had ten kids, and subdivide their land so the new people can farm it. The local people can get rent money and payment for the subdivision and still have a large plot of land left over). Grow the local farmers markets! Grow the small towns to what they were 100 years ago! Make it so people only had to drive to the city when they wanted to, not for work. There is so so much empty land out here used for massive lawns.

Why are we seeing this right now?! You will see it again as long as Democrats continue to run this country.

Political Islam cannot win a war by conventional means. They have resorted to the guerrilla tactics you see here. They are a patient cult that will wait as long as it takes and do whatever they need to do in order to achieve their version of victory - the Islamification of all nations and enforcement of shariah law.

Christians and Muslims culture and beliefs is like oil and water one has the freedom to say and do whatever you want as long as you don't hurt others physically or trump their right, the other is kind of the opposite.

Your government simply hands over citizenship to illegal immigrants for a vote bank. Maybe you should start by choosing someone wise, while you are still in majority, which under current circumstances isn’t gonna be for long?‍↕️??

There’s a process. The tenant will eventually get evicted. It sucks for the owner that it takes so long to get an eviction order but that’s the system. Don’t like it? Then vote for change

After Covid - in Pak & Ind - Canada was the most desired destination. I made some analysis about Canada before deciding to apply for immigration and reached to the conclusion that Canada is falling soon (not as a country but for the immigrants so don't get hyper on me :)) So just be wherever you are because the world is going crazy. And no place on earth is gonna be peaceful for long!

UK and Europe is facing what India has faced so long. They lectured about human rights on Kashmir. Now experience Kashmir in your own countries.

Having baby’s that will contribute to Canada is a long slow process. Immigration is and should be a way to fine tune the amount of people contributing in real time to better stabilize the economy. Too many immigration loopholes ,scams and boarder jumping with liberal ideology turning a blind eye and incompetent governmental oversight is making life for Canadians worse.

I personally don't believe foreign citizens should own real estate when we have a housing problem. Renting shouldn't be a life long dream but ownership of a home is.

Man I love reading the comments in this video! We also face a similar challenge in other countries that housing is a crisis and governments keep bringing in all sorts of immigrants, from refugees to highly skilled people (like myself). I have switched 5 cities and the story either gets more worse or less worse. Half a year searching for a decent apartment? Some search for years! It's a full time job. The government gets back to my request after many months! Foreigners offices are packed with applications and citizenship is taking years long now. Getting a doctor appointment (psychological issues) within a year is hard, unless you pay from pocket or are in grave danger. We are being squeezed in here and they started new loose immigration policies to be more attractive to foreigners. Address the quality of life at the same time!

Hypocrites. There grandparents also came from Europe not long ago.

Start having loads of kids and raise them to stay home as long as possible and take a page from the chinese in that they have to send red envelope of cash to thier parents as a percentage of thier income.

In Alberta , the sherriff would have been long , long ago.

They have hope for Canada only because they haven't been here long enough to see the total decline in quality of life

Got out of renting long time ago. Landlords are getting the shaft.

Dont forget canada is basically closed for business. \n Not too long ago a bunch of large corporations left. \n All of our taxes hinder the population and our business. Add in yet more tax ie the carbon tax its no wonder.\n Im surprised theres not more bankrupt farmers also.

For the people supporting the tenant the landlords should stop long term renting altogether. Either Airbnb or sell. There will be reduced rental supply and you can count on government to solve the housing problem.

I am in BC and it took 3 to 4 months to see the Residential Tenancy Branch to hear my case before an Arbitrator and I won. Hopefully the laws in Ontario are better. In B.C. the Residential Tenancy Branch cannot enforce monetary orders. This means the Tenant doesn't have to pay despite an order for payment from the Residential Tenancy Branch. You then have to go to small claims court which is another long process.

When the reality is there's more than enough to go around - enough resources for citizens, legal residents and additional immigrant influx - new faces are welcomed by all. \n\nWhen the _perception_ is that there's enough to go around but the reality doesn't reflect this, mostly conservative and certain liberal types start raising question, doubts and concerns. \n\nWhen the reality is that resources and infrastructure are strained, along with unrestrained ever rising COL, everyone regardless of political alignment starts raising questions doubts and concerns regarding the feasibility of such policies. \n\nIt isn't necessarily against those immigrating as long as they're earnest but rather, having to do with budgets and budget cut allocations seemingly favoring others when the priority is usually one's own initially. \n\nTl;dr : It's money. No other way to slice it when examined analytically. The economy, national debt, budget and budget cut allocations.

Yea but there are fools out there who will vote for 4 more years for Bidens Border CZAR,just out of blind long Time LOYAL DEMOCRATIC BASE VOTERS !!!!

I dont know man im from Quebec and every winter I wonder why am I living in a place where I would die if I stay outside too long

As long as people stayed in their countries everything was ok but as soon as you have to share,\nit becomes problematic for the white man ?

You called Russia and UKRAIN an INVASION and we have funded that ever since so what do you call THIS and how long do we have to fund this

It's not about the Canadian's incompetence to compete, it's only about the government's inability to address public issues such as housing, job opportunities, etc. As long as no issues with those things, foreigners and immigrants wouldn't be the spacegoat for the public's problem. Not only in Canada but also in many countries in Europe & US.

Canada has long been oversold. My parents emigrated to Toronto in the mid-50s but returned to the UK in 1970. Back in Britain, they were quickly able to enjoy a much higher standard of living than they could in Canada.

As long as NYC is able to support all the immigrants, let them allow them in!

Without a LOT of immigration the truth is that western countries like Canada and most European countries would simply collapse in a few decades for the problem of demographic decrease... My european country of 10 million habitants is being literally 'invaded' by a huge influx of immigrants as we speak and to be honest there is no other way to make the country viable in the long term. We the western people stopped having kids decades ago and now there's no turning back...

Indians complaining about Canada is the funniest thing I seen in a long time.

May be wrong ? I do live in USA and enter with a green card …and an immigrant … been in small business for long time… but this year I been grab and run quite a few times … and unfortunately they were Venezuelan immigrants…Not me lot of us … May be system needs a thorough check up …

May God bless all Immigrants and live long with prosperity and Dollars

just issue millions of permits to live on the shield in a large trailer. Lots of jobs to be had in emptying grey and black water, trash and recycling, and refilling the potable water tanks. Snow removal, lawn care, h-vac... I could keep going. Then there's the need for a feature industry that actually produces value. Tunnelling all that rock would be a very long term investment, but I like it. We can cut trees. Have nuclear power plants...

It's not just housing. People can't find jobs. The CNE job fair had tickets for crying out loud. People can't find doctors. Long lines in ERs. It's not just anti immigration either. When looking for jobs, sometimes, you find yourself in rooms where you're the only one speaking English or French.

Went to a marine park in burnaby this August long weekend to meet some people and drove around for over an hour in five different overcrowded parking lots before giving up to sit in an air conditioned restaurant and met my friends and family at one of their houses\nOver immigration is one thing but extreme economic inequality is another issue that has to be addressed now no matter who is in power\nWe need a national economic dividend now fix the isolating segregating capital system we now have

the answer is quite simple , the goverment has put a lot of debt on the books in the last years , so they need people to pay for it , high taxes make sure you people work long hours to pay for the apartment , its the king of scheme i call the postmodern enslavement , having civil right makes little sense if you dont have money to move around , Gaynada has become the trap , trap for suckers ..

Thanks to immigrants Canada has survived this long. Immigrants bring in much needed dollars and skills that locals don’t have. Further, immigrants are the hard working people unlike the ‘locals’ who rather than work two jobs to make ends meet, sit back and complain how bad things are. \nIf you haven’t guessed, I’m an immigrant too and have been in Canada for the past 24 years. I have contributed to the coffers and have not taken any money out from it for the past 24 years!

This has been going on for a long time. As a resident of upstate New York we are well aware of how insecure our northern border is. It's just not publicized like the southern border. You gotta love mainstream media, they downplay the crimes of the Biden/Harris administration.

Once in a wedding we had a cake for 35 people , we were 20 in the wedding some didn’t get a cake….John Smith had taken 25 pieces for himself , I said to John that’s not fair he should “give” a piece to everyone who hasn’t got any, so he took just 3 pieces and gave them to Juan who had already one , so Juan went to Rosa and convinced her the problem was Peter because he had a piece and he should cut it in two because there was not enough for everyone. So Pete and Rosa started fighting….Pete said is not my fault you don’t have any! you should be faster! and Rosa reply it is not my fault I walked the distance when I got there it was nothing left. From then on Juan repeat the same over and over and John kept giving Juan the 3 pieces. \nSo I said; ok enough!! is not that John should give one to everyone that has none! John shouldn’t got taken 25 pieces in the first place but it was so long ago that everyone thought I was crazy! Including Rosa….

As long as they stay in NYC the liberal hellhole.

Canadian here, \n\nAs long as they're leaving Canada, I don't care where they go!

I am for immigration as long as it well managed. I am also in favor of math, don't bring in immigrants if we do not have housing for the people already here. Liberal immigration policies and municipalities not allowing higher density housing has created this problem.

I hope winter 2024-2025 will break records of snowfall and cold falling down to -40°! A very long winter!
