Can you just imagine what it's like? Can you imagine being with your children, your spouse, and having to make these difficult and terrifying decisions? Can you imagine being at the receiving end of such hatred, hostility and resentment? The vile rhetoric that dehumanizes and demonizes them- can you imagine enduring all of this? All while attempting to save your family, to wish to be treated as human, to be treated fairly, to receive safety...\nbut to, instead, be persecuted, detained, separated, traumatized...\nIt's horrifying. This isn't who we are. We are better than this. We can treat people as human, with kindness and compassion, not fear and aggression. We can treat each other with love and understanding.

Just imagine we heard this immigrant's sad story regarding just wanting a better life for his family. Some people will feel some compassion and say screw you Trudeau or Trump, let them all in, they just want to work, they are not criminals, screw laws, we are all immigrants here blah, blah blah. Let's not forget there are thousands and thousands maybe millions that has the same sad story and the same dream. If Canada don't build a wall, it will end up like America and have all sorts of immigration issues.

Muslims don’t know the word assimilate.. they live in their own little world of killing infidels.. can you imagines thinking of the same thing

Uff.......muslims....; Imagine a thousand muslim women roaming around wearing burkhas.....!!! In 10 yrs u dnt know how ur neighbour looks like????

shes a big mouth hag .imagine if she has children how embarrassing

As someone who is more liberal minded, I don't agree with illegal immigration (I'm also pretty fiscally conservative). I'm open to the idea of healthcare for all, I'm open to legalized pot (even though I hate pot), I don't agree with most wars, and I don't give a rats ass who someone marries or who makes your cake. But all those things are for CITIZENS. That CITIZENS should have. Not someone who comes here just because they think everything is free, don't need to learn English and probably not pay taxes. This is supporting something illegal. I wish democrats could stick up for this country, rather than certain demographics. I believe we would never lose again if they could do that. This is the reason healthcare for all cannot be talked about right now. We have people thinking they can come here and do nothing with how things are now. Imagine if healthcare was free.

Canada only wants people who are educated and who qualify for good jobs. \n\nBut it is ridiculous to be here 15 years and not speak English. I can not imagine moving to Paris and saying..no..I'm never learning French and I expect you to have everything in English for me.

Imagine the bill that taxpayers will be getting......thanks Turdeau. Canadian children go to school hungry , but, I'm glad the illegal immigrants have room service and cable t.v.

*STOP PUTTING THIS GUY ON TO SPEAK FOR US, HE IS AN ABSOLUTE JOKE AND LIBERAL SHILL!!!* \n\nHE HAS TO STOP STOP SAYING WE HAVE A LOT OF ROOM UP HERE, HAS THIS IDIOT EVER LOOKED AT A MAP?!! LOOK WHERE WE LIVE - *A THIN LINE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE COUNTRY* WHERE 35 MILLION CANADIANS ARE HAVING TROUBLE KEEPING UP WITH HOUSING LET ALONE *AFFORDABLE HOUSING*\n\nIF THESE PPL WANT TO LIVE IN TENTS IN THE NORTH, FLY AT IT, BUT THE REASON TRUDEAUS FIRST LIE QHEN HE TOOK OFFICE, KNOWN AS THE *REFUGEE RUSH* WHERE HE USED LIES AND PROPAGANDA TO CONVINCE US TO RESCUE 35.000 SYRIANS FROM HORRIFIC REFUGEE CAMPS.... THAT LATER TURNED OUT TO BE AN *ABSOLUTE LIE* . THESE PEOPLE HAD ALREADY BEEN RESETTLED IN SAFE COUNTRIES FOR YEARS AND HAD JOBS, KIDS IN SCHOOL, AMONG THEIR OWN LANGUAGE AND RELIGION. \nThat was the 1st lie of 3 YEARS OF LIES, EMBARRASSMENT AND DESTRUCTION OF THIS COUNTRY BY A RADICAL ELITIST LEFTIST ISLAMIST APOLOGIST COMMUNISM PUSHING DICTATOR. IMAGINE FORCING ISIS INTO COMMUNITIES WHILE QITH THE OTHER HAND THROWING TAX DOLLARS TO PAY YHR MILITARY TO RISK THEIR LIVES AND FIGHT THEM IN OTHER COUNTRIES - WHO EXACTLY IS THE ENEMY? CANADIANS? AMERICA? \n\nNOW WE LEARN FROM LEAKED BORDER SERVICES DOCUMENTS THAT HES BARELY VETTED ANY!!! AFTER TELLING US THE STRICT VETTING IS WHY WE DONT HAVE TO WORRY??!!!\n\nWHY IS HE STACKING THEM UP AND SUPPORTING THEM IN MY COUNTRY?? \n\nTHIA IS JUST THE BEGINNING OF THE DAMAGE THIS DICTATORSHIP IS DOING . \n*AMERICANS , DONT BELIEVE FOR ONE SECOND BELIEVE CANADIANS ARE BEHIND HIM, LIKE YOUR DEMOCRAT PARTY, MAINSTEAM MEDIA AND CLINTON SYCOPHANTS ... ITS ALL LIES*

Trudeau can't be reelected simply for his personal safety. Canadians have been desperately looking forward to 2019 that could not coming earlier. If Canadians missed 2019, just imagine the hopeless and devastated people can do whatever to overthrow. ..

You ever had a Freind who asked to stay with you for a couple weeks? A month goes by, all the sudden things change. Imagine just anybody demanding your couch, I don’t understand why this is even a story. Stay home, and make your country better!!

This was so nice just imagine if more people understood the racism that black people go thru

Just imagine the damage to the dormitories and the bugs, cockroaches, bedbugs, things we are going to have to pay to fix

Our prime minister is not a deliberately bad or evil person, he is just totally out of touch with reality. He was raised in a sheltered and pampered lifestyle that normal working class people can't imagine. He is the worst person to represent us that I can imagine. No experience, no education relating to his job, no empathy for the common people, no humility, and totally controlled by the unelected Gerald Butts

Imagine one jehadi is playing victim card every where

Could you imagine working with this woman? Yea, racism doesn't exist according to some white people.

So hes been in the US for 15 years and still cant speak English? Could you imagine living and working in a foreign country for a decade and a half and not know enough of the language to have an interview? Then he goes and finds out canada has even more restrictive immigration policies than the US. All while being a shining example of asylum abuse.

Not saying this to be a leftist or a conservative but just try to imagine your born in a country like Salvador every day seeing gangs killing people kids elderly ... you have a wife kids ... wouldn't you do anything literally anything to do just so your kid can have a better future and yes even considering going to another country where you have no family and know no body not even their language .... please comment I want to see what people would do

Imagine that Fake Trudeau hate illegal immigrant, lol WHAT A HYPOCRITE condemning the US immigration law for not taking illegals. Trudeau fake as his eyebrows

Just imagine if all the time, effort, pain and suffering was put by ALL these immigrants to fix their own countries. Most will wind up getting deported anyway...all for not.

Last summer I was followed around a PetSmart by staff for the entire 10 minutes I was in there before I was so uncomfortable that I left. I work in retail. I know what they were doing. I'm a white woman. I can't imagine what it must be like to have this happen almost regularly. At my store, I try my best to treat everyone the same, regardless of what they look like. Unless you are rude to me. Then I'll give it right back to you.

@15:00 I can just imagine hodgetwins saying YEAAHHHH she know damn well she want that bbc action

I've been hearing a lot about El Salvadore lately and this super high murder rate they got there. Of course anyone could be caught in a crossfire but are they really just picking random dudes up off the street to murder? I imagine the stats are MUCH lower when you control for things like gang involvement and other criminal behavior.

I don't get it? He spent 15k on a lawyer to gain asylum in canada, why wouldn't he spend that money on becoming a us citizen? Everyone I met that went through the process to be a US citizen said that's about what it costs? I imagine it's easier here specially having kids and an already established life even if you were here illegally to begin with?

Imagine the potential to society if everyone was allowed to achieve their potential and not stopped by racism and discrimination. It would enrich the lives of all of us and make the world a better place.

i love canada so deeply, couldnt imagine living anywhere else!

This is bad, Africa is so fucked up, our leaders have failed us. Can imagine the risk people take just to get out of this continent. This is bad, this is really bad.

that's creepy .... i can't even imagine how arab people deal with this shit everyday that's terrible... do not ban them arrest them

Being covered is a great privilege and shows how Islam honors women more? ROLF! Just goes to show that there is more than one way to look at a situation. BUT. Imagine that she were to one day decide to go out to a beach in Iran wearing a g-string bikini. It would be a death wish on her part! How can people listen to this nonsense and take it seriously?

Australia has the universal health care thing here too (medicare) honestly the best thing, I can't imagine living in America and not having access to public free health care, it's something we really take for granted here but it saves lives.

could you imagine if white people did or said \n this sht!

If Muslims are feeling fear, just imagine how fearful us non Muslims from all religions are feeling... I will let you know Shit Scared !!

Imagine a world without Islam

imagine the tan lines

Can we agree that we are all human being we should all respect each other either we are black,white or yellow and from either religions?first,  In islam,in The quran there is writted that we should respect christianity, jews.. Or we Will face muhammad(pboh) on The day of judgjment Also we shouldnt make differance between A Man black or white judging by The fact The creation of god. ive saw alot of comment here of threating islam of every kind of names and some muslim calling them morons: you should show sbar to UR feloows, its discusting sriously because of terrorist who could be SEEn as A christian jew hindu or muslim but we Forget The fact that terrorism HAS NO RELIGION, show me one Book where theyve righted to kill ppl??? People have distroyed the name of jihad that means to go ontO A war if and only somewone attacks you,only for auto defense. See im A muslim, I have tons of multicultural friends theyve said alot of things in front of me about islam but i have explained them about MY true religion And theyve agrreed one of them converted and she wore the niqab. Niqab,hijab,burka arent A signification of autority of mans far from there islam supports women and respect them more THAn U can imagine, in the quran No men have right to Touch a women, he should respect her, women should keep their beauty only for their husbands and the mans should lower their gaze!!islam forces no one to do something because once youve read the quran and have the faith the commendmens writted arent A big deall. Everything in the quran is logical and just but the new generation ruined it all. Let me tell you brother and sisters if U see someone that is rich wont U think that their Family is rich too? Its The same thing for islam ppl saw ppl saying that they where muslim and killing ppl beating women and raping poor kids while it is Strictly banned in islam. So I blame muslim who doesnt act well to show example and too all others human who juge without knowing. And just one thing there is alot of ppl that pass themselve as muslim just by putting on A beard and by saying Allah hu akbar .Why cant we live all together why is there that much racism why cant we LOVE and do peace like islam shows and all other religion because their is one god and we all know it next it for U to judge but dont judge without knowing because they could be A girl who look mean but is kind vice versa. On that salam oualeykoum, bye and have A good day and rest of Life . \nMay Allah guide us all. May god guide us all.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Imagine that. People are tired of sharing their country with people liberal's imported for votes.

These Muslims left Islamic Pakistan because they hated to live under Sharia, and migrated to non Islamic Canada for better life. Canada gave them asylum, food, medical care, citizenship, right to speak, and they're still ungrateful to their host country and bow to tyrant Mecca (Saudi Arabia), where they can't even imagine to breath like equal citizens. Shame on Muslims & Islam. My utmost respect and regards to Canada.

Imagine I said the following and 1.7 billion people followed it:\n Theft is punishable by amputation of the right hand (above).\n• Criticizing or denying any part of the Quran is punishable by death.\n• Criticizing or denying Muhammad is a prophet is punishable by death.\n• Criticizing or denying Allah, the moon god of Islam is punishable by death.\n• A Muslim who becomes a non-Muslim is punishable by death.\n• A non-Muslim who leads a Muslim away from Islam is punishable by death.\n• A non-Muslim man who marries a Muslim woman is punishable by death.\n• A man can marry an infant girl and consummate the marriage when she is 9 years old.\n• Girls' clitoris should be cut (per Muhammad's words in Book 41, Kitab Al-Adab, Hadith 5251).\n• A woman can have 1 husband, but a man can have up to 4 wives; Muhammad can have more.\n• A man can unilaterally divorce his wife but a woman needs her husband's consent to divorce.\n• A man can beat his wife for insubordination.\n• Testimonies of four male witnesses are required to prove rape against a woman.\n• A woman who has been raped cannot testify in court against her rapist(s).\n• A woman's testimony in court, allowed only in property cases, carries half the weight of a man's.\n• A female heir inherits half of what a male heir inherits.\n• A woman cannot drive a car, as it leads to fitnah (upheaval).\n• A woman cannot speak alone to a man who is not her husband or relative.\n• Meat to be eaten must come from animals that have been sacrificed to Allah - i.e., be Halal.\n• Muslims should engage in Taqiyya and lie to non-Muslims to advance Islam.\n\nThat's what Muslims believe in.

How Muslims treat Muslims of a slightly different faith is evidence enough of what they truly represent. help for Syrian refuges is not coming from the middle east.\nshove you excuses pc people.\ncould you imagine Canada saying no to Britain in the last 2 world wars cause your religion is slightly different.\nCountries in the middle east who have the same language and culture as Syria but a different form of Muslim will not allow 1 refuge in, the Religion of Peace at work.

Why are the police not arresting these vigilante groups and the courts judging them harshly. I could only imagine the reaction of the police if white English vigilante groups patrolled the streets! Double standards and another example of the minority being treated differently than the majority!

Bahahaha. Could you imagine these pricks trying this crap in Ireland, they would end up shitting out their own teeth. 

LoL imagine England ruled by that Is-fucking-lam religion, thats a scary thought though

Lucky for them they're doing it in England. Can we imagine if Christians openly do that in Saudi, they'd be beheaded by Friday.

these so called 'muslims patrol' should respect other people in London, imagine if someone doing a thing like this in their country???? what??? real England citizens aren't allowed in their streets but these 'patrol bitches' can go anywhere in London??? isnt it 'haram' for these patrol by just getting out of their own streets and seeing others with short skirts, drinking alcohol and all??? what a douche patrol...

Good luck England... Soon all of you are gonna be muslim. Can you imagine doing same things in muslim countries? They will stone you to the death, but in here, in UK they can do wathever they want...

And they wonder why there's so much hatred towards them. Imagine us going to Pakistan and telling them how to run their country, just wouldn't happen. Why don't they go back to their homeland if they're not happy with the rules here, simple!

3- Missionary is forbidden & harshly replied to, in lands, Islam rule & conquered, and many of these lands are genuinely not Islamic\nThey could get killed, persecuted, prosecuted, and anything you can imagine. In Egypt, personal estates get demolished, suspected of hosting Christian prayers!, Imagine that, Copts (The Genuine Egyptians), many times find no churches to pray in, and turn to pray in their homes, then they get prosecuted of the proclaimed violation of turning a residence to church!.
