Uncle Mr. RightWhite is back, offering lessons for those who might need a bit of enlightenment. Certainly, the immigration system can be problematic, largely because our government, composed of less-than-astute individuals, fails to put forth a comprehensive roadmap when planning to increase the number of immigrants (consider housing, healthcare, infrastructure, etc.). This is why Uncle Mr. RightWhite always says: don't be lazy and vote wisely. Use your brains so you don't end up whining on social media.\nTo our new immigrants: Of course, you're welcome to come to Canada, legally, as most do. But it's crucial to learn about the local culture, language, and customs. And please, do take the time to learn about First Nation culture—it’s vital for every newcomer and even those of us who have been here for generations.\nAs for the increasing numbers of nonwhites in Brampton—well, yes, that’s happening. But did anyone forcibly remove you from Brampton? You chose to live among those who share your background, and they did the same. So, what's the fuss about?\nSo, you're saying that a 69.8% majority is under threat? Really, give your brain a good shake. If that's a concern, have more children to increase your numbers—no one's stopping you. Now, if you’re worried about Brampton being full of South Asians, and you feel they don't like you or don't assimilate, well, let's have a laugh. Did we assimilate with our vibrant, beautiful First Nation communities? language? culture?Imagine how they felt when Europeans took everything from them. Stop putting your failures on others. Individuals who are high achievers dive into competition and put in the hard work. Conversely, those who are indolent merely whine on social media. education - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Canada

Am interested to work in Canada

They’ve destroyed Canada like they’re destroying the UK. Absolutely tragic and absolutely INTENTIONAL

I was pro-immigration too when Canada was bringing in 300,000 per year. Then they added over a million, like of course that's not going to work.

I thought of moving to Canada too, but it felt really impractical. Canada is expensive, even to locals. This is what you get when you prioritize corporations over people, making the rich richer, and poor poorer. High rise condominiums bought by tax-evaders, and money launderers from all over the world, instead of livable communities. Happens almost everywhere in the world. I think everyone needs to live simpler, live in the province, or work from home, the cities are really getting unlivable nowadays, full of greedy corporations constantly fed by their cousins in the ranks.

I agree with this feeling shared all over. No, for now Canada don’t need a lot of people. The country need to fix this housing problem and fix its immigration policy. It’s insane to see people paying for 900$ for shared bedroom, this is crazy. Fix it first then later you’ll scale up the immigration process again.

Social media has exposed how North America - Canada and US have declined due to their welcoming inclinations.

For people who complain about Canada and wanna move back think twice, thrice and n more number of times.\nLife is expensive here and it's cheap nowhere. Taxes are high but the benefits are worth it. In my country, I gave up 30% of my salary purely for my children's school and bus fare, which is torally free of cost here.\n\nI was well versed with my local language and had a specialist dentist degree but still no job, whereas here even a mere DDS (undergraduate dentist) with poor English mints money.\n\nWhen i was jobless this country bore with me 70% of my family's total expenditure thru benefits and schooled plus comfortably yet freely transported my child which none of our home countries ever did (even Govt schools in my country charge a minimal fee and pupils' standard is deplorable).\nSo, yes, Canada is not a bed of roses to start with, but we never came from a bed of roses ?\n\nAnd one final note to people praising the US - ATLEAST I CAN VISIT A SHOPPING MALL IN CANADA AT PEACE THAT I WONT BE SHOT AT ?

But the real question is, who gives a F**K about Canada? For real though.

Well Canada is obviously different from England I think. The land you currently call Canada was originally owned by the native people. If you are not happy with it, why don't you move forward or out, to somewhere better ? ???

Since february 2024 Canada requires visa for Mexico (49%) and also have toughened its visa requirements.

Big up Canada eh ?

Canada is driven by an ideology that overrides logic and reason.

Trudeau signed Canada up for the UN Compact for Safe, Orderly & Regular Migration in 2018 because he is a globalist lackey.

As a Pakistani I fully support love respect and support Canada and its beautiful people from Pakistan ?. Best regards from Pakistan ?.

These people are not migrants, they are opportunists. Here in Canada we watch daily on news people escaping from US crossing the border. I guess in New York migrants can get prepaid card for some time and then authorities cut them off and migrants come back to Canada for canadian money, it's a revolving door

Chinese Mainlanders are buying up properties as investment in Canada with corrupted money from runaway business profit and not pay their own employees in China. Canadian government ignores the influx of international illegal funds from destroy the housing sector due to greed.

I am an immigrant, I have nothing against immigrants. This is gross mismanagement from the liberal government. Why would you let Soo many people come in soo fast in such a short time. \n\nTruth is government doesnt care. It's all about how much money is coming into Canada.

Most people support limited legal immigration. The wide open borders policies in Canada and the US are total failures for everyone.

Kind of odd for a UK publication to do an expose on Canada's anti-immigration sentiments while there are active anti-immigrant riots in multiple places at home.

More smuggling drugs in Canada

I am of immigrant descent (European/asian). My wife is also of immigrant descent. Both of our families had professional degrees in their country of origin and were vetted by immigration Canada before being allowed to immigrate here. Both families also had to demonstrate sufficient funds and sponsorship to create a life here. That level of vetting potential immigrants does seem to apply anymore, and loopholes seem to be used more frequently to bypass the vetting in order to get a footing here (ex. Temporary foreign worker, temporary foreign student programs). \n\nIf Canada had an issue with infrastructure, housing, health care, education prior to 2023, then addition of greater than 1.3 million immigrants within a 1 year period can only exacerbate those issues. Just look how our per capita GDP is now.

Please visit Brampton...?? this is not Canada any more

Canada is done! Destroyed by the NDP/Liberal government. What a shame that these fellows have destroyed the once best immigration system of the world.

Canada is huge send the immigrants some where else in Canada

guess what immigrant still move to canada ?

I can't help but think that the phrase 'a country of immigrants' is just a sneaky way of saying 'a country of colonialism'. I dont know that much accountability or reconciliation has happened in Canada over the last 300 years. It began with governments and corporations doing whatever they wanted and could do to make money and extract resources off of this land (regardless of whom it affected), and continues to be just that. The increase of immigrants is largely, as far as I know, being used to a) bring in more revenue and economic stimulus (which is more and more ending up in the hands of a few very wealthy families) and b) fuel the labour force of large corporations that would rather soak the profits up themselves, hire low-wage PR or temporary foreign worker labour, than pay Canadian residents properly to work those jobs. I love immigrants, have many 1st gen immigrants friends, and think they do bring a lot to Canada. We all do, as we were all immigrants at some point. At the same time, the immigration system is very complicit in looking at immigration as a resource in aiding those rich families/ corporations in colonialism, and you could argue that this overreliance is abuse of the immigration system. Certainly, we have seen this with colleges. This feels especially true over the last several years with huge jumps in immigration numbers with growing inequality for long term residents. So the result is a very quickly changing world that is not helping many Canadians feel more secure about their future, which is a recipe for unrest. Am I wrong? Genuinely I am looking to have an open discussion here!

ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION IS ILLEGAL. LIBERALISM & LIBERAL NDP CORRUPTION IS KILLING CANADA.

Indians don’t respect Canada it’s crazy y come here????????

Why? Because immigration is unchecked and unbalanced. If you want a prosperous multicultural society everyone has to be on board with that and it has to be fair for everyone. In the West that balance is not there. If you think for one moment you could go to an Asian or Arabic country and have a 'Canada Town' or a 'Little Britain' you are delusional.\n\nYears ago, my father who was an army officer went to Oman to help train their soldiers. On arrival he was given a list 5 A4 pages long of things he COULD NOT DO in that country. He didn't complain and abided by that. One Westerner broke one of the rules accidentally and literally had to leave the country taking nothing with him. Why is ok to enforce culture one way, but not the other? That's your problem. There's an agenda here.

I am working as a Quality Control Engineer for 5years. I want to go to Canada with PR. But i am confused that what should i apply for, study visa- Quality Control Engineering, work visa- Quality Control field or PR?

Canada for Canadians!??????

USA should just absorb canada. i know alot of canadian citizens (not polititians) would be open to it

As long as NYC is welcoming migrants, Canada is just a good Samaritan?

It is so ridiculous that they say on the video that Mexican citizens have a better chance to get across the border from Canada when the US pushed Canada to ask Mexican citizens for a Visa and Canada obeyed right immediately. All those peopele are coming from other countries.

Canada has a Marxist, Post-National, Sanctuary-loving, China-Mexico-Cuban embracing PM. He will never close the border.

What we need is a great big fence all the way across Canada— you know- it’s a small border- maybe about 500 miles or so? Ya right…..

Your claim that entering Canada is much easier, is totally false.\n\nAlong with your claim that Mexicans do not require visas

Illegals can fly into Canada, but as a US citizen I can't go to Canada without papers?

I am Canadian I can tell you our government is aware but they don't care and Canada also is full of A Holes and very woke. Canada is a dictatorship its not as great as it once was just like the US

This courtesy of Prime Minister Trudeau’s failed open boarder mass immigration policy in Canada.

Hey are you sure Lithuanian guy ( EU citizen with no Visa requirement) travel in woods from Canada to USA? You check your facts please!

Cash, don't go there!! Our Canada/U.S. border is highlighted as the longest, undefended,(but just test that, I dare ya), border in the world. It is something to be proud of!! People living across the border from family during COVID could sit in parks along the border and visit!! Again about 40,000 people crossed from the U.S. side into Canada on foot, illegally during 2022. We don't want to mess with our relationship, man, don't go there!!

What ?! Roxham road is operating in reverse?!\nSo NY is getting 10% of the migrants it gave to Canada.

Justin Trudeau is a communist. The cartels are paying him off to let people come into the country so they can get across the border. Canada is not gonna help secure our border. It’s a double edge sword we can’t stop protecting their airspace because in the same time protects our airspace, we’re not gonna let Russia invade because that would put Russia on our doorstep at any other country in the world invade us and not even help there communist

BLAME CANADA! Southpark called it!

Don't let all the unskilled and fake document Punjabis slip into the US. They are already ruining the Canada for every other immigrant ethnicities and locals as well, what was once a melting pot for people of all places to live in peace together is now a husk of it's former self, too many cases of fake ielts scores or fake visas being issued

Good.\nThey can all leave Canada.\nWhy would they want to be here?

I've lived in Canada for around 8 yrs, still don't get it, how come a country with 2nd largest land in the world has a housing crisis?? When I just arrived in the country, the cost to own a house was around $400k, now it is about $750k to maybe $900k. I am soooooo regret I didn't get one when it's relatively affordable.
