Canada is a great place to live if you are a wealthy foreigner looking to park your money of unknown or questionable origin. Or possibly a retiree who scarcely ventures outdoors. For hardworking working- and middle-class people under the age of 50, regardless of where you live, where you were born, or what you do, your future is worrisome. About 80% of you don't want to know your future, if you haven't already figured it out. New leadership may help, but the problems go deeper than that.

Born and raised Canadian and lived 22 years of my life in Canada. Left Canada in 2005 and till this date, zero regrets. I went for an academic internship in 2004 during my Bachelor's in Electrical Engineering to University of Texas Austin. A professor offered me a position in his research lab for master's, so it was more like studying in US free of cost and earning monthly stipend for doing research. \nI never considered this as permanent move but quality of research I did in US, the opportunities and salary I received I could never imagine that in Canada. I am still in touch with my university friends in Canada work at low wages on obsolete tech stuff, with no innovation at work. Many of them want to move to the US, but for 10+ years they worked on outdated stuff, so they cannot compete with the talent pool in US. Even in 2004, I remember healthcare being bad and I keep hearing stories about how worse it has become. In US, I am covered by a good health insurance, I had surgeries for myself and my kids, and we never had any issues. Honestly, I can no longer trust Canadian healthcare with insane wait times for my kids safety.

Gimme a break, man!!! Never heard so much complaining in all my life. Canada needs immigrants because people born here are not having kids or don't want kids. I thought only liberals were the bleeding hearts. Seems like there are a lot of conservatives that also feel sorry for themselves.

Even Canadian born Indians are annoyed theres too many Indian immigrants entering Canada. Most are useless students who apply to B-rated colleges like Algoma or Conestoga (who makes millions off of them), and then dont get good paying jobs afterwards. Because they studied useless programs. These Indian students use college as a loophole to gain fast PR in Canada. Majority of them are scammers. Some become nurses and truckers because thats where the demand is. Then they sponser their entire families from India. This contibutes to over population growth, where the demand is high, and housing supply is low. Families will also pool their money together to buy houses. Problem: The Government Allows it.

I am born and raised in canada and I can tell you first hand that the liberals and the woke mafia have destroyed our country in the last 8 years our country will never recover THANKS LIBERALS FOR DRSTROYING ALL HOPE IN CANADA

Yep. When my son was born, he had to stay in the NICU for a few months.\nThe nurses corresponding with some American nurses were telling me that if I were there, my bill would be in the hundreds of thousands.\nThe stay of my ex, the birth, my sons stay, the nurses time, equipment and things like diapers ect. It’s insane that people start their lives like that.\nHere in Canada, I paid nothing. 0.

I'm a born and raised Canadian and I left Canada 14 years ago never looking back!

I live in Timmins and live next door to immigrants from India. There has been a large influx of Indian immigrants here. Our experience has been very positive overall. The newcomers are definitely more conservative and capitalist than those born in Timmins.

I left Canada in 1985. My grandparents were Canadian born, but I could see the trend in the 80’s when the first waves of Chinese were welcome to move to Canada with money, buy real estate, business interests, and provide tax dollars for a Government that was addicted to spending and would never satisfy their Liberal agenda, with the tax revenue alone from hard working, productive Canadians. I have never regretted my move, and have watched Canada sell citizenship and resident status to anyone with the cash. You reap what you sow. Canada has become a country of mutts, while a relatively small and declining population of native born Canadians pay high taxes, deal with crime and the raging drug crisis, fuelled by foreign immigrants who will never really put Canada first. Why should they? The Government has set an example of National prostitution, that begins with open borders and ends in despair.

People say to leave the country but I was born and raised here and have no money or experience to go anywhere else…people immigrate to Canada with hopes, but where could I possibly immigrate to that won’t end up like Canada? More than that, how am I supposed to get a good job in an entirely different country?

says something about global capitalism. Born in London and the global make up is chaning. get over it!

I was born here and I would leave if I could.

I wish I could up and leave sometimes but I love Canada cause I was born here. I miss the old Canada feeling. Now it’s really depressing. It feels like I’m sinkijg

Suggesting that a people who are just living where they were born should just become refugees is a really disgusting take.

Great job, Bro Noxa!\n\nThe reality about self-confidence, which is crucial, is that 90% of fabricated stories eventually expose a lack of genuine self-confidence. Over time, the truth tends to surface. Consider someone who has studied a subject for five years and still experiences stage fright when sharing their true experiences. It makes me wonder what might happen to someone who is making things up. Unless they're a natural-born con artist or an evil genius. ?

He born with out father this Gaye ????

He displayed his pedigree, I'm sure he was born and brought up in a rough neighborhood !!!

Sucks born here in 95 was so much nicer when we all said ey before being mass immigrated to

That is my local town centre ? and my daughter and I are hijabs too. It won’t change us lol this happens every time something happens in Palest*ne, since 2005 when my daughter was born.

I'm a true Canadian born and raised I'm sorry to say this if we don't have Indian in Canada then sorry Canada will die slowly..there very intelligent understanding and they give all like us true Canadian...please stay thanks

10:58 Totally agree, I am an Indian born naturalized citizen. I chose to move here, so onus is on me to acclimatize and respect the culture and tradition of the country where I moved. Respecting traditions of a country of my choosing doesn’t mean that I am loosing touch with my own traditions. When we go to meet someone, we don’t expect them to meet all our whims and fancies, but we kind of respect their way of living and adapt. Unfortunately most of us want all of the privileges but none of the responsibilities. We definitely deserve all the riches that we are getting cz we have put in all the hard work, but at the same time, we should not be exclusive when it comes to providing opportunities to other races or cultures. It should not be that as an Indian i will rent out exclusively to Indians or will give jobs exclusively to Indian students. This should be fair. We should also be open to other races and cultures. If someone didn’t open their minds and gave us opportunity, we would not have been here. We should do the same.

Imagine 2050. Most people who are 65+ today will be deceased. Most of their children have 1 or no children. 100,000 per year dead from drugs (that's at least 2,600,000). Now add the number of Canadian born who are permanently leaving. What will be left. Most importantly, according to the NDP//Liberals, my statements are all racist. There is no problem. I'm 68, born in Vancouver. My wife and I are leaving next year (by the way, she's a well-educated Filipina who can't wait to leave).

I'm Indian but not born in India for 3 generations and even in my country, the Indian/Paki immigrants are just coming in droves. There's a distinct culture difference. It's like 10 or 15 years ago, the Indian government opened the gates and said OK, you can go now... And off they all went to every part of the world ??\nFrom a financial perspective, it's definitely not good for the economy, cos they milk the system, don't pay taxes and send money out of the country back to India.\nIndian people though are not generally dangerous though or drug dealers, definitely not like some of the black countries like Nigeria where many will go to a new country specifically to do crime. Somalian people on their other hand are family oriented and get involved in business, not crime.\nHowever, uncontrolled immigration places a huge strain on the system.\nIn this video though, why are the white people involved in drugs. That isn't really related to immigrants, is it..

I've gotta laugh at some of these posts. No matter what. The majority of population in Canada is white. Just cause the % of minorities have increased, white people as a group still hold a large majority. I'm a born Canadian too.

What if they were Canadian born Indians? Would that be ok? \n“Too many Indians”? \nMaybe you should discuss why Indians are a problem. \nSo is it that there are too many people? Or just “too many Indians” like you say?

If you're born in a first world country and you choose not to make anything of yourself, it's not immigrants' fault. Immigrants both in US and Canada always work very hard, they tend to focus a lot on getting a good education so they can get good jobs. They are the ones paying the high taxes dont forget.

I’m 68-years-old and was born in Canada. I worked hard all my life. Now I can’t get a doctor. I’m told the problem is baby boomer doctors are retiring so not enough doctors. BS,the problem is the population is much greater than the resources needed to support it. Why are we bringing so many people into this country when resources such as heath care have been depleted?

Born and raised in toronto, I live in Las Vegas. I am able to achieve the American dream in two years with an average salary( single income) , protect myself and my family with 2nd amendment right. 30yr fixed mortgage rate at 3.0% on a brand new house what Canadians would consider a big home at 2400 sq foot home. Foods cheaper , fuel cheaper, Nike is cheaper lol and most importantly No snow. \n\nIf I carried the same amount of salary to Mississauga I would completely have the total opposite. I repeat, I would LITERALLY have the total opposite. God bless America, god save Canada

My friend lives in White Rock BC......On a recent visit I felt like I was in my old town of Fremint, California.....The majority of people weren't born in North America but from the same area of the globe. We went to eat @ his favorite restaurant and it had changed to Indian cusine. I don't know about Canada but, in the USA they game the government assistance systems and use the funds to import more of their relatives. I don't understand why the USA allows a foreigner even after they become a citizen to bring in their elderly parents and collect Social Security funds when they NEVER worked a day of their lives in the USA or contributed to the system. Its EVIL & CORRUPT!

Diversity does not mean bringing a million people from one nation. Canadian born teens couldn't get simple jobs because all work places are completely taken over and they wont hire others anymore. This country is turning for the worst

The homelessness and drug use and programs like MAID are being pushed onto the Canadian born by the feds. \nThe increase is immigration is also because of the WEF agendas.\nIt's to cause a division within the population so that whites are not majority and the non whites are not majority. That makes it easy to control the overall population.\nThe solution is that everything get together and make immigration levels become very low until we know if we need immigration.\nIt's the same agenda being pushed by the global elitists to control populations.

I’m a Mississauga Croatian born in Canada.

This is a good video. You really painted a true picture of Canada?. I was born here, and you have gave valid reasons.

omg i felt that . i feel like a stranger in my own country and I am a born Canadian!

As someone that lives an hour outside of Toronto it honestly disgusts me and angers me to see how many immigrants and “new Canadians” are living a better and more prosperous life then the actual people who work their asses off and contribute to society. Keep them out, kick them out and give back to your people the Canadians who deserve it and work for it not someone who got flown over on a plane or shipped over on a boat . The people who were born here deserve the help first. I’ve said what I said and I don’t not care if you agree or disagree so don’t waste my time with stupid comments thanks

Born and raised in Brampton, was wild growing up and seeing it turn into India. That said, where ever I move to this slowly happens there too.

Quarter ounce guy born in 1995 who mom is a cousty crack smoker wait punk those Indian are going run this game

This customer born to multiple partners of his mom \nProbably \nThis fellow mother stree dog... Could fuck everyone in the street

Half of Canada wasn't even born in Canada. Canada isn't what it use to be anymore.

You mentioned something that I (dual citizen, born in Canada, but lived in Europe for most of my life) have noticed, too. You see a lot of white Canadians who are in bad shape whereas most of the immigrants seem to be doing quite well. I don't know what exactly to make of this, but it struck me, too. In Europe or the USA I've never had that impression.

Canadian-born people who are drug addicts in Brampton are not because of the Indians living in Brampton, but rather because of their own choices. Indians didn't force them to get addicted to drugs and it seems that you are implying that.\n\nYou can also make a similar video about Markham which is the 1st place on your list. \n\nI also oppose immigration at these levels and wish that people would assimilate into the Canadian culture like in the US. \n\nWhite Canadians are also immigrants from Europe just 3-4 generations ago. Indigenous Canadians are mostly living in reservations in the north where there are no jobs and their economic situation is not great either.

many canadian born indians outside of brampton HATE everything to do with brampton

Not the Canada I was born and raised in 47 years ago that's all I can say.

I live in Kitchener, ON and have noticed quite an influx of East Idioms here as well. I think it is one thing to have open arms to people from other countries BUT we should take care of the born and raised Canadians that now have to compete with these people for housing, not to mention employment to a certain extent.

That's Brampton alright. Born and raised in B-town

These so-called immigrants are paying for our retirement and keeping the colleges & universities afloat...did you know these International \nstudents pay fee 4 times of what canadian borns pay.

Many native-born Canadians saw this coming a long time ago. Population is a numbers game and if the women do not reproduce say goodbye to your population. It's as simple as that the natives have no one to blame but themselves falling for the BS propaganda that got the women out of the house. Sorry ladies men cannot have children so you can't blame them.

The mayor of Edmonton is Indian and now the roads dont get clean up in winter ( Only the heavy traffic ones ) ... Summer comes and the grass is full of weed around the city .. What are they doing with tax payers money .. I was not born in Canada but i have seen exactly what is happening in this city

flat earth believers fucking caves born lol
