Canada gives out student visas like candy, especially to Punjabi Indians. Canada is not the country it once was and so they go south.

why is it no one paid attention or gafk when the US illegals were going INTO canada FROM THE US? Plenty of vids of the RCMpigs carrying their luggage across, taxis dumping them off on the border with Ont/Que/MB.\nNo one got ruffled from the usa for near a decade now that its been going on.\nIts porous BOTH WAYS, just sayin.

Hold the phone! I live in Washington state, and I cannot go to Canada nor to Mexico without a passport. And you’re telling me these illegals are flying to Canada because there’s no requirement for them to have a visa?

There are now quite a few news stories in Canada of immigrants leaving the country - some back home and others to the USA and other places. Many just get a Canadian passport and then leave. There are public health care and pensions, so it can be an asset and also a convenient travel document to have. A lot of Canadian university graduates have a very hard time finding work in their fields and a lot of them look to the US for a better future. Both immigration and unemployment in Canada are much higher that in the US - so more people are chasing fewer jobs that often pay less and are taxed more than in the USA. Opportunities are generally a lot fewer in Canada than the US, and the business environment is not as favourable, and taxes significantly higher. You would be getting some of the entrepreneurs from Canada moving to the US for more favourable conditions as well to launch a business and also now a lot more rich investor types, so-called high net worth individuals wanting to relocate, because they just raised the capital gains tax in Canada. Capital gains is also triggered on inheritance in Canada with a deemed sale of property and assets, so rich people would prefer the American system and want to be residents there for tax purposes and have their assets grow in value in the US compared to Canada. There are very large numbers of foreign students and other categories of immigrants which may have as their goal going to the US after getting a temporary visa to Canada which is easy to get - maybe something like half a million to a million people in those categories depending on the year, plus around another half million regular immigrants and refugees now. The Trudeau administration has increased immigration to record numbers. It has been steadily going up over the years for several decades since 1990. Because of family re-unification it can have a snowball effect and could significantly exceed 1 million per year. A lot of the sending countries have much larger populations than Canada, so there are a lot more that can be potentially sent to Canada in the future. About 1/4 of the population of Canada has been added in the past few decades. Add to that visitors and temporary visas - that is a lot of people potentially moving to the US. Before the 1990s Canadians visiting the US were not required to have a passport and a drivers' license or birth certificate was adequate. Now a passport is required. It is impossible to effectively control the long Canada-US border, so there could be some unified policies in that area agreed on between Canada and the USA on immigration and refugees. Canada currently has a very open immigration policy with the government actively seeking out more immigration beyond its current processing capacity and trying to take rejected immigrants from other countries. The Canadian government, especially in recent years under Trudeau is immigration hungry. It might be the only country in the world doing that. What some news reports are now saying is that some immigrants are actually leaving, since they find it so difficult in Canada and some are worse off than they were in the countries they came from, which were considered to be less developed than Canada. \nWashington currently has more immigration controls and administrative competencies than Ottawa, so US pressure and influence is a faster way to get reforms into the system than waiting for local politicians to do anything, which is unlikely. Canada is seen by some as a backdoor into the US. Biden's immigration policies could be seen as very conservative in Canada compared to Trudeau's. It used to be in the news about how refugees were trying to get to Canada and walking across the border in Quebec and out west from the US earlier, but now there are more news stories of immigrants leaving Canada trying to go the other way, probably due to high costs and unemployment because the government took in more people than it could absorb into the economy. They have the idea that immigration drives GDP growth so that they can borrow and spend more, expand the civil service, etc. without making any cutbacks or efficiencies, supposedly without the Debt to GDP ratio getting worse, just by bringing in more people as if that would drive the economy. A lot depends on who you bring in as well. Are they going to go on welfare, are they going to increase crime, will they somehow contribute to society, are they a net tax benefit or cost in terms of government services, will they invest money, will they start a business and create jobs for others ? Those issues do not factor into government decision making in Canada for the most part. Ontario Premier Doug Ford did say there were too many foreign students. It is bad planning not to consider those factors since there are other costs that grow with those policies as well, and infrastructure has to be expanded. I think that the real immigration numbers to Canada are not transparent or made public, nor are the costs involved, if anyone even knows what they are. Nor is the impact on crime. You can guess from what the reports are in other countries. The Fraser Institute has made some estimates on the net costs of immigration to the government budget a few years ago, which were very high and which by now have increased - the cost equivalent of several new aircraft carriers each year. They are big numbers which are not publicized, but it amounts to the fact that immigration is subsidized by the taxpayers in Canada and it is not paying for our pensions as an ageing society as has been claimed. There is less money for education, health care and pensions per person, and those social benefits will probably have to be reduced over time. Social programs can only be delivered to the extent that the government has money. The bigger social system a county has, the more such immigration policies are going to cost. Trudeau has been expanding various social programs as well, so higher taxes and debt are likely with that approach. Then more productive people and companies will want to leave Canada and go to the US. Probably the government does not know what the actual numbers and costs are and doesn't actively keep track of that information beyond what is required. Probably nobody knows what the true immigration figures and their associated costs are in Canada, and hardly anyone has even studied those issues. If they can just walk across the US border and get papers so easily making an asylum claim, it is not surprising, since it would take them longer to get a regular visa and work permit if they did it legally. You could call that a loophole in the US immigration system which is being exploited. The US is better governed in general and has a better system in many ways, but I am not sure if it is the same on that. People have arrived on boats and have not been sent back. At least in the US you have more open information about those issues. In Canada it is hard to find out anything about it. Deportations from Canada are very few. \nOn other issues in Canada when voting in federal elections you have to show a government issued photo ID like a drivers' license or passport to vote and bring a card that was mailed out to eligible voters that gets updated addresses when a person files their taxes. I have never heard of mail-in ballots in Canada, but there are remote areas of the country in the far north who may have special system for voting. It is easier to get a Canadian citizenship than US and many more citizenships are handed out in Canada each year in proportion to the population than in the US. Canadian might be one of the easiest citizenships to get in the world. The official line now is that it is a country of immigrants. Based on current trends, will very little opposition to it in the parliament and most MPs supporting it, future immigration to Canada could increase to several million per year because of the rapid growth of population in the world, and the momentum already growing of immigration to Canada, so it may change significantly in the future. Historically around the world you can see many examples that country names, borders, flags and languages change over time with population changes, so it might not be called Canada anymore in 50-100 years. For example, Bulgaria used to be called Thrace which had been a powerful kingdom in antiquity and had a different language which is barely known about anymore. Over the past 2,000 years it has gone through a number of changes and had various regimes governing it, has been independent and also part of several different empires. Canada has only been a country for a short time in comparison and has been been going through significant changes. Trudeau has said that Canada is a post-national country. Canada is also going through a period of critical self-examination and deconstruction-revisionism. A lot of what had been viewed as positive from its history now is seen more critically, with re-naming and removing historical figures now seen as negative.\nDiscussing immigration policy critically is considered by many to be taboo in Canada, unless a person is saying good things about it in general. You can hear people say that the government isn't processing enough people, for example, but not often that there are too many or that it costs a lot of money. The trend of migration from Canada to the US would only increase much more in the future as it is going currently, and its role as a stepping stone to migration to the US could increase. The way this would be seen by many in Canada is that they are losing valuable people to the USA whom they consider assets, since a lot of officials have been trying to bring in more people into the country, but not everyone wants to stay in Canada nowadays because of a lack of jobs and opportunities. Canada is quite laissez-faire about migration, with Toronto being a sanctuary city as well.

Good we dont want them either...a drain on society, thats about it... hey lets go to Canada or the us for free stuff and make a mess of everywhere they go... some a re ok but thats bit...honestly...

Why would they keep immigrants there in NY city instead of sending them to Alaska so they do something productive there? The USA should learn a bit more from Canada. I lived there and their immigration system was great because you could get a workplace from the industries that needed workers that couldn't find Canadian workers. Usually you could get a job that is heavy since most Canadians wouldn't like to work building houses or as welders or anything that is heavy-duty. And those job offers used to be located in the north provinces like prince Edward Island or newfoundland, etc etc... and become a permanent resident there in about a year or two. While in Ontario or BC you could get a PR in 5 to 10 years after graduating from college. Immigrants would go to Northern provinces for sure unless they have a big, huge, insulting budget to spend by living in the main cities like Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver or Calgary or Winnipeg.

I know all about the immigration crisis at the US/Mexico border but I had no idea they were coming in through Canada. What the hell is going on !? Now Canada has an immigration crisis !? I think I want to move to a different planet? this is getting out of hand. What the hell is wrong with our leaders. It’s like they want an invasion or something?

So what I need to do is identify as an ILLEGAL, go to Canada easily cross the border into New York and get a free vacation. Never mind I look completely European, as long as I say I'm Mexican that's ok, right?

Canada is full! Please go elsewhere.

Welcome to New York! Way to go kamalamaladingdong! The border Czar is still at it, she's protecting all of us citizens of America isn't she? What a good job she's doing about controlling the border crisis, no problem at the border now she just ships them close to Canada and then down to New York. How you legal people of New York are putting up with this is beyond me, kiss your state goodbye with her in charge! Remember for change vote TRUMP!!!!

me who wanted to go to canada to study even if they increase the price for schools i start asking myself if it still worth it?

Canada has had over 100,000 illegals from US since 2017 come in via Roxham Road. Maybe some of those are going back to the US.

Canada just told 70 000 students to leave canada plus a bunch more. Some will sneak into the us instead of going home

The Northern border has been an Issue for a while, it is how NY got flooded by Indians and Pakistanis to being with, they would get into Canada then go on a tourism trip to the US and never return. This has been an issue for at least 15 years.

Can't send them BACK to Canada?\nThe fuq we can't.\nThat where they came from that's where we send them back.\nIf Canada don't want them they should have required passports and not allow them in Canada in the first place.\nAmericans need to stop letting other countries shit all over us and tell us we can't send them back.\nWhat is Canada going to do if we send them back, wag a finger at us?

B.S. Canada has very strict laws about coming into their country. These people wouldn’t be just going into Canada and then coming into America. Oh no, no no Canada doesn’t even let Americans with a ticket. That’s right a driving ticket into Canada.

Mr Trudeau: I am ashamed of you. You have ruined, changed many good things from Canada. All cultures are different. This is part of North America. You promised different things to Canadians & old immigrants, but didn’t do it. Everything is so expensive. This is European, white, Latin American country. Where is your head? Do not bring more people from India, Asia, Africa & other parts of the world If you don’t know their gods, their culture, background. How are you going to help the people that are in here??? Send all the people back, & help here. Don’t be like your father& family. Shame on you.

I moved here 2018 . Canada has been great to me .I was able to go to college and graduate. Thanks to the student loan.\n\nIt's true, job has declined and things are getting harder since COVID-19 and Trudeau is doing very badly. Next election l will vote Conservative.\n\n\nTalking about religion, l am glad you are leaving. I am ex-Muslim and l believe more Muslims mean less freedom. I challenge you to do a video like this with your wife in Afghanistan.

When is this going to stop? You vote for Kamala, maybe next month another 25,000 can cross from Canada. Got a DUI you can't get in to the country how all these illegals doing it?

Actually, Mexicans DO need a visa to go to Canada

As a Canadian that lives close to the border.. ( BC ,Peace Arch crossing ) Those people that got kicked out of Canada must go back to where they came... NOT escape to the USA, I am sorry our criminal federal Gov. is helping to flood our best friend with more criminals. You have my permission to use whatever means necessary to stop the agenda. We are working on it from our side.

So my felony have to be 5 years old to go to Canada but these illegals can fly there for fun. That’s crazy.

As a Canadian - the immigration tom-foolery that is happening is just as bad up here. Our Prime Minister is a handsome idiot, he was a drama teacher before he became Prime Minister (I know, make that one make sense). He has no idea what he's doing, he's being used as a puppet for more experienced extortionists-erm-politicians. With the help of his party members and a coalition with another party, in less than ten years he has taken Canada from a great place to visit and live to basically what's happening in NY. Crime in our cities has gone up dramatically. Theft is on the rise. Homelessness and drug use is through the roof. Immigration is out of control. And our government also prioritizes immigrants and asylum seekers before born and raised Canadian citizens. As a Canadian who is tired of the nonsense that's been happening in the world this past decade, I wish our government would put on their big boy pants and do something about this uncontrolled immigration. Things are bad here too. Our government seems to keep changing policies and laws to further accomodate the insanity that is happening, I promise, not every Canadian wants these changes to happen. We are just as sick and tired of all this nonsense as our American cousins. I wouldn't be surprised if both countries at some point united in objective and worked together to fix this problem - but that's not gonna happen anytime soon as long as these dummies are in power. But believe me, the regular people of Canada see what you're going through because it's also happening in our own back yard. From this Canadian, I wish you all strength and courage in the coming days, we're all going to need it. God bless, and stay safe everyone <3

This is misleading. Many of the illegals in Canada walking In to Quebec from USA. Now they are going back. Also.. you can't come to Canada without a visa from Mexico.. facts

Tell treadeu to change his Visa program back to the way it was!!! Make sure anyone coming to Canada has a Visa, or stop any money going to Canada and tell them we won't defend them in case of a war!!!

Actually Mexicans need visas to go to Canada again. As of February 2024.

Well a least there going to states not canada yet but is coming to us too

I experienced seeing some migrants going from that Plattsburgh gas station on that bus line this year. I didn't think about it cause there's such a large int'l population in Montreal. But looking back, it was a little weird seeing foreigners waiting for a bus in a smaller city across the border. ? And Canada's visa/permit offices are a joke. Visitors and migrants get their asap but people waiting for a work permit have to wait at least 6 months or a year, even for US citizens

People go to Canada in order to get into the united states.. sounds more like they're trying to work and not get raped by taxes

Im going to Canada and come back in. Mexico is too far to travel.

Cash, you and NYC should hope that 300,000 ~ no, 3,000,000 million ILLEGALS come to NYC from Canada. Perhaps those numbers would make the politicians stop ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION.\nThough I really doubt it. Let's all VOTE 2024 Kamala to keep this going !! Destroy the USA ~!!!

??they all realize that Canada is crappy and no money to be made here...so they go to America!!!!we are already over populated in canada.really a shit hole now.Never had a great abundance of cities and opportunities but now it's completely oversaturated with only fast food jobs remain.

Why are they keep going to Canada and not other states. The only thing I agree with Trump on is the border crisis. Because this is getting scary because of some of the immigrants who come to cause trouble.

We wanted to go to Canada/America for a better future for our kids. We are experienced engineers so our skills could benefit the country. However, it looks like America and Canada are becoming the same as South Africa, so might as well stay here where we can afford our small house.

Now Canada can unload their countries immagration problems on us. This is not going to end untill we end it. You know the answer....Trump 24. A president that does what he says from day one. Boarder closed and not to open atleast for 4 years to illegal immigrations while we deport the over 13 million that are here illegally. Think about it. Democrat is Marxist. No more slaps in the face to American citizens.

I've got some even more bad news for you Cash. Our government up here in Canada, has been importing military age couples posing as interior decorators, from China, to the tune of 200,000 a year. This has been going on since 2017 or so. Good natured Canadians believe that these are just people seeking better opportunities for themselves but, since when has any communist country simply allowed thousands of young couples to just leave, because they wanted to? I believe that these immigrants are being sent so that China can pre-position their military units, for the coming battle with the U.S. They have already amassed about a million soldiers up here, waiting for their marching orders. Call me paranoid if you like but, we saw something similar to this in West Germany during the Cold War. Thousands of STASI agents were successfully sluiced in, in a similar way. Remember the population of China is 2 billion or so!

I’m in Canada for 2 years now and I’m returning back home . \n\nI will not tell anyone not to come, diaspora can transform your mindset for good. I dint struggle getting a job. I did a customer service job and an admin assistant job. \n\nHowever, this system is a dangerous. It’s a system whose work is to put you in debt, through the famous credit score. If you put yourself in this system, kurudi home itakuwa ngumu. You are also just one paycheck away from being homeless. \n\nCost of living is overly high. You work for bills. Some people get subsidized housing, but those housing are not the best places you would want to live. Mostly in poor neighborhoods and neglected. \n\nI came here and took myself back to school. One of the programs I did was an eye opener Leaderahip program. It gave me a glimpse of who I am and what potential I carry. And boom, I realized this is not my place. My life is not just about working and paying bills, it’s more. And this more can only grow home. Otherwise I will keep working with slow growth in employment, and come back home when I can’t live my full potential \n\n\nIf you have to, leave, come to Canada. Exposure is worthwhile. Make sure you take a technical course, avoid debts. Go back home and grow with your country. \n\nKenya is our Canaan.

The root cause of WHAT IS GOING ON HERE is simple. Both Canada + the USA are currently run by GLOBALIST TOTALITARIAN ORWELLIAN PIGS , calling themselves Progressive Democrats and Canada’s Liberal and NDP coalition. Both our Countries are being destroyed by the HARD LEFT MARXIST ideology. Of course Australia and THE Western World is plagued by the same Social and Political unrest. Short answer is KICK OUT THE COMMUNISTS.

Forever?? Listen Jordan, I am Canadian from Toronto. You tell this story as if trump is not going to win!! give your head a shake. Rude awakening come November. The same thing will happen here once Pierre Pollievre becomes Prime Mininster. unfortunately we have to wait a year because NDP is corrupt and the NDP leader just wants his pension. Fagmeat not even born in Canada. What a weak country we've become!!!

Singing :OH CANADA UR BORDER IS VERY POUROS OH CANADA BEEN GOING ON FOR OVER HUNDRED YEA4S OH CANADA QUEBEC ALMOST SECEDED PARLE VOUS FRANCAIS SPEAKING OF THE FRENCH.. FRENCH OLYMPICS SUCK ..\n.OHHH CANADA

We need to put them back on a bus and send them to canada!! And the government needs to Canada if they let them cross without us id we will hold them responsible and accountable for those people!!! Because this is what they are doing to help the democrat/liberal party that Canada government supports get the votes to keep a liberal in office so they can keep getting support for the crazy bs thats going on in Canada over the last 4 years....

Don't worry , as soon as this military draft gets going in high gear , many people will be trying to run to Canada and Mexico

Numbnutz, they are NOT entering FROM Canada, they are GOING BACK. You guys dont give 2 effs when they come over from over there but oh, God forbid when they go back, it becomes entering illegally from KKKanadia. Look at all the money your feds are giving them (how about that $20k USD EBT card) they are just following the money, that is all they came for. Numbnutz

Wrong, Mexicans need a visa to enter Canada. Thousands of migrants entered Canada from the USA the same way, now some are going back.

??? that's hilarious. Coming from someone in Texas. \nI'm in favor. Go to Canada and new York City

The problem with this rant is that the flow of immigrants was going the other way for years and Canada asked nicely many time for NY to do something about the immigrants coming from there and crossing into Canada! Those requests fell on deaf ears! So Canada changed it's laws slightly and now all the immigrants that get stuck in Canada during the cold season are now flocking back to the warm United States of North America and Oceana. Serves you right! We Canadians have been far too patient with your bad behavior for too long. You reap what you sew.

We (Canada) need to get serious about border security. We're used to migrants coming FROM the US TO Canada, but now it's going the other way.

It goes both ways. Illegals were for the longest time coming from NY into Canada through Roxam Road. \nIt's nice to see it going the other way now.

Canada is become one of the worst countries and their dealing with one of the worst presidency the kamla and Biden presidency who have made these laws in conjunction to bring in as many illegals as they can just like they flew them in this will be another time they try to steal the election and with a legal votes I think you're going to find Americans are about to go to Civil War because they're tired of this they're tired of their country being stolen by people who work for us it's time for us to make changes we may have to throw everyone out of our government and start again folks because our government is so corrupt and so hated everywhere

Let's not talk about double the amount going back up into Canada from US. With all the freebies and lax immigration they get here it's more profitable for them.
