Meanwhile they do everything and anything to make sure their relationship with the Jews is intact what have the saudis done to help the Palestinians???? Go ahead we’ll wait

I think he try to say very wise and good words but he should said it to another person. For example to some big black Muslim guy with a big beard. There is no sense speaking like that with a woman. She is not gonna get you. I’m sure a grown man will understand you and will give a thankful hug I can promise you that you should try it ??

Agreed! I grew in TO & have moved to AB since late 2000s. Now I cant recognized TO anymore & for sure, its not the TO nor Canada I grew up in. Infact, I'm planning a move to the far east as I no longer am able to live here, atleast not comfortable. Well done TO/Canada, now reap the whirlwind rewards of your politics

Its interesting because this same tactic has been used by others before when trying to push out native tribes and native groups.\nThey would slowly, but surely take over everything, and the people being used to do it don't understand when the native populace start to hate their peoples, whoever is managing india needs to be spoken to, why does their population keep increasing so much they fill other countries, yet their own home country is garbage filled and full of toxic fumes from pollution.\nThey have enough money to put towards space flights and such, yet not one dime to the dirty rivers and polluted cities or the criminal groups in their own country.

Oh no... immigrants are leaving! Gee that sure sucks... ???

Yes tgey will surely arrest Indians, all others are given hotels, money and healthcare

For sure he's fired

Oh sure, buy a house, and get sick, bankruptcy has invited you south. There are pros and cons everywhere. Toronto and Vancouver are the most expensive places to live.

I understand the comments about people saying the Palestinians shouldn’t back down by leaving their country but it would be good for them to have an option to be able to leave and come back if they desire. I’m sure some of them would like to not be there right now risking their lives and struggling everyday.

Uhhh, do those idiots actually think America is cheaper to live in? Yeah sure, maybe in the worst states.

Everybody is complaining. Unfortunately Canada is going down. Government fucked everything. They keep bringing immigrants at the same time they can’t afford to take care of them. No money, house or medical services. Of course the country will get fucked. I’m sure most of the refugees if they don’t have wars in their countries they won’t stay in Canada. Canadian government have to find solutions soon or later otherwise it can’t go like this.

Easy fix. CHOOSE where you spend money. Choose who you work for and supply support for. Choose Canadian business that have ties to Canada not another country, make sure the income from businesses and personal gains stay in Canada. Canadian $$$ needs to stay here, not support another Country. I know a gentleman that can't figure out why I laugh at him and don't support a thing he does. Immigrated here over 10 years ago, he talks about going HOME every winter to Africa. HMMMM so this tells me a few things about him and my Country. The first is he has a piece of paper that says he is Canadian but he actually is just a scammer, this should be his home or he just filled out some paperwork and took a camp job for 6 months a year just to take our money and go HOME (another Country), that is a scammer. The second issue is with CehNehDeh eh! no more dual citizenship fixes that problem. Commit to Canada become a hoser eh leave our $$$ here Colonist LOL

No ending the war is done very easily by Hamas surrendering. After their brutal attack on Israel on October 7th Israel has a right to a unconditional surrender by Hamas. The world has a right to make sure they don't attempt to do another October 7th attack on Israel ever again

The real test would be like: \n-This is Canada. Are you sure that you want to come? it`s very hard for immigrants.\n -Yes \n- Ok, Here`s your hotel reservation and your monthly allowance, you can start your uber job tomorrow.

It used to be easier to live here. Housing costs doubled in even the past 5 years. Everyone who has lived here for a long time who are not immigrants are facing similar barriers. The landscape here changed so radically that communities feel colder since everyone is forced to leave their community every time they have to move and everyone they know is now an hour away.\n\nCanada is still wonderful in many ways, but inner city life harder, colder and more expensive. \n\nThe amount international students are told they need is based on Canadian averages and not the inner city of Toronto and so many are met with shock and difficulty. \n\nAlthough, locals are not entirely sure why people came expecting things to be easier at the same time struggle was already happening. The policy makers come from rich classes and are very disconnected.

I went to high school in Brampton in the early 80's and there were no people from India anywhere... it was very much a white anglo town, and then I moved to Montreal for 25 years to work as a fashion designer. (I remember the shock of flying into Toronto on business and walking outside to get a taxi, there was an endless line of Indian guys wearing Turbans, waiting by their taxis...it was a very strange feeling, as I was not sure if I was in Canada or India.) About 10 years ago, I moved back to Ontario to live in Guelph with my sister and had heard the joke about Brampton becoming 'Bramladesh' by people at the dog park, and in the past 5 years, (since they built the massive temple in Guelph) the place has turned into a mini India, as EVERY house put up for sale is bought by a family from India, with 4 or 5 cars in a 2 car driveway, (strangely, as soon as they move into the house, they all rip out the asphalt driveway and replace it with white concrete??) they seem to be a tribal people and every house is filled to capacity, as the husband and wife are with their kids, the brother and his wife and their parents, all living together. (They are friendly people and they don't cause any trouble... my only issue is the intense stench of spices from their house that fill the air 24/7 to the point that you cannot sit in the back yard or open a window, without being punched in the face from the powerful odour of spices!

Who are they building houses for in Canada? Certainly not for Canadians...surely these poor struggling migrants cannot afford the homes, or can they?!

Who gives a sweet f**k what right wing commentators have to say? Canada is the best country in the world, period. We are wealthy, have amazing land mass, a high standard of living, with many many many races and ethnicities.... I just love this place. Sure, governments are often lazy and stupid. Hate JT if that gets you off, I don't care. (And if you do hate JT, be sure to remember what that slime Harper did to undermine Canadian democracy, in the way Trump attempts to, only Harper was more subtle.) I'll never leave Canada because I'm proud of it, imperfections and all. Go live in the dumpster fire that is the US; don't let the door hit your ass on the way out!

@everyone\n Well what do you Canadians do for living? Agriculture? Nope..because half of the time in a year your land is covered with ice..so how do you survive without food in winter? basically you guys sell your things and services to other countries and survive on that..being the second largest consumer in the world..we indians are adding values to your GDP from years..and the facilities you are shouting after the most, the free food, the free shelter, the free dentist provided by your country is earned by your country from other countries..but do we survive on your products and services? No we can produce it in our own country like China does..all greatest brains are here in india as 20% of the world’s living in india..if you guys continue to behave like this with indians we will surely do that movement..can’t we produce our own food in our country? Yes we can..our land is not covered with ice like yours and we also have good man power..so now you give a really good shake to your head and ask yourself why your country is keep allowing immigrants from different countries..why don’t they ban immigrants from other countries and survive on ice in winter..tell your country to ban indians..it will not take even a day that india will ban all of you and all your products in our country..and start producing on its own..can you produce things you are importing from others? No..but we can..can you survive without exporting? No ..but we can..the greatest Indian philosophy is “Live and let others live” This is the reason we dont want to snatch away other’s way of living and leave them to die in hunger..otherwise we have all the manpower of the world and all the resources in our own country to do our own things..so respect people who are serving your country from other countries and adding value to your GDP..like they are dependent on you for something, you are also dependent on them for other things..that’s the reason your country is not messing with them..you are earning from international students by selling education to them and still complaining about them..then why don’t you ban them and survive on ice..remember india can live without other countries but other countries can’t live without each other..your country is allowing immigrants for a reason and you better understand what is that….You are right because of our never ending resources we are not facing any recession like you are facing right now..you better compare your country’s economy growth graph with india’s economy growth graph then speak about weather the same train is carrying 5 million people in our country or 5 million people of our country are carrying the responsibility of your country’s economy growth..and also analyse how much money your country has borrowed from whom and when then will be able to return it..neither you have resources nor man power..that’s why you added immigrants in your population..they added value to your GDP..still speaking ill about them..horrible hypocrite people first they need you and then will try to use and throw..first you invite international students to your program then take fees from them and then tell them to leave the country..wow..the quality of living you are very proud of shows your weakness..no skills except sarcasm..no work other than drug addiction..

This is so interesting. I'm lucky enough to be a Singaporean and just a slightly above-average professional, I contemplated applying for Canadian PR as PR seemed achievable and I wanted a change of environment. But in 2018, I did a research trip to Vancouver and Toronto to scout out the place and talk to friends living there, and realised just from a few anecdotes that with the comparatively higher income taxes, lower salaries and higher housing prices (compared to subsidised public housing in SG, private housing in SG is still out of my reach) that I really was better off where I am. Not to mention the stagnating and less diverse economy, un-progressive tax system would penalise a single working female like me. I thought it would afford a better quality of life for young families due to the maternity leave policy - not sure if I was on the mark for that

I am Indian and the lady who was talking about adapting to the culture in the country you’re in, is absolutely right. \nBut then, Canada also needs immigrants and workers who can take up minimum wage jobs and most of them pay taxes. But yes, there are also antisocial elements that cause problems for everyone. Perhaps, to Canadianize the immigrants, the Govt can have cultural exposure and introduction classes. I wont make a drastic change but would definitely be a start. That being said, I am not sure how Homelessness and Drug Addiction is a related to immigration, I would consider it a mental health problem.

I love that we are transforming Canada into a space for fellow South Asians. As soon as we start expanding our population and slowly introduce our culture and way of life, it'll be a safe haven for people like us. So make sure to only vote for South Asian politicians who have South Asian's interests at heart, vote for politicians who will implement our culture and way of life so that we can freely live how we lived in India.

Hello! As you said you have been in South America. I am sure your mind have changed in comparison to YYZ. I'd like 2 know yr country and YYZ this year and I am already conviced that If i were u, i'd never change YYZ for another place. I recommend you never get back to South America again. I live in São Paulo City and I know what I am talking about. Rio de janeiro as well. Violence is everywhere. Corruption os everywhere. I have visited ourr neighbours couple of times: Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, and It is what you can imagine. My country Brazil, from N 2 S, E 2 W I know It Very well. So, dont say the negative.points from where you live. Here.whwre I live you Will see all types of negative.points you can imagine, like horror movies. \nHope you stay safe and well. \nOur greetings from São Paulo City, Brazil.

Little late to the conversation, but i only recently discovered this channel. I can agree with the majority of opinions in general, politics, guns, healthcare etc are all better here in Canada. Sure there may be safe pockets in the US but that’s not typically an issue in Canada. You don’t need to strategize where to live here based on that stuff, but may need to take into account the weather as it drastically varies within Canada. \nMoving to the US would typically be based on a job opportunity and likely wouldn’t provide much choice in location - go where the work is and unless it’s opening a small shop somewhere or working in a rural setting, you’re likely going to be in a bigger city where the majority of the violence is. Even so, with laws like ‘stand your ground’ you could get shit anywhere if you piss off the wring person. In Canada, you might yell at each & flip them off, then you just walk away without concern of being shot. You might get jerseyed though. ?

Canada = Racist, arrogant, violent, ignorant, self righteous, Stalinist, Socialist buffoons. NOT ALL, but the majority for sure.

Its easy to see what happens when other countries take refugees Saudi Arabia is not gonna admit Palestinians and probably others arab nations either . Unfortunately it hasn't worked for all other nations. Sweden for example. The way Israel is operating sure looks like a removal of Palestinians from their lands.

His family can eventually go to him, I'm sure. Ehat about the families he destroyed by driving so negligently? He is the one at fault. His feelings dont get any validity.

There is no deterrent value to deporting. Insufficient penalty for4 sure

All the indian trucks drivers students they should be in school but they drive like crazy High way 17 and 11 so dangerous because of Indian drivers and you see them on On ditch. They are speed with truck Gravel trucks in Toronto, Brampton I am sure we all noticed

As somebody who has been hit before, I have zero empathy for the one who caused the crash. In my case it was luckily just injuries to myself requiring physio and some rehab but others aren't as lucky. People need to be held accountable for mistakes they make. None of this slap on the wrist crap, if you're going to drive you need to understand what the machine you're piloting can do to both you and other people if you're being careless. The person who hit me has a higher insurance bill now, so I'm sure she'll never hit anybody again and the problem is 100% solved.

He sure wouldn't plan this and I'm sure the family's agree.Dear God for him and his family. Sorry for them deeply. 2:08

Can't believe this is still being discussed, get him out! Sure accidents happen, but as i see on the major highways here in Ontario, these immigrants driving transports are road safety hazards! Too many times have I seen close calls. When something happens as this guy caused, you're out!\n\nSad part is, he'll be back in a few years anyways by either marriage or student visa.

Does not matter which country he comes from, act like this should be highly punishable. Deportation is very light sort of punishment.\nI'm sure he will be back with different name or identity in few years, ready to take on same profession n be a threat again.\n\nRigorous punishment in Canada for him and also the lawyer fighting his case. Equally responsible. \n\nMoreover this country some laws are totally ridiculous and need change badly.

There’s so many ways he can fight this it’ll take years to remove him . I’m sure he has a brother or cousin that’s a lawyer and knows how to drag it out. Welcome to Canada or should it be Khalistan

Sure is a lot of liberals on here trying to make excuses for their failures. Good job idiots you've ruined Canada.

NOT all brown people are from INDIA, so never assume that everyone is indian.\nAlthough PUNJAB/INDIA has recently invaded Canada (students) for sure as well as high numbers of immigrants from india.\nAlot of MPs are Indian-origin and they do their best to bring more of their own people to Canada\n\nVery soon everywhere/everything will be staffed exclusively by indians. \nother people will be out of jobs

Not sure what deporting him is going to change, you can`t change what happen, you`ll never get peace of mind,

Sadly these comments are full of racism, condemnation, and hatred, with no consideration for the possibility that this could have been you, a family member, a friend, or a loved one driving that truck, but for the grace of God go I. Anyone of us could have been driving that transport and found ourselves in that exact situation, but I'm sure none of us consider ourselves to be evil, just human, imperfect, and succeptible to momentary lapses of judgement, that can result in horrific, life altering accidents(eg a child drowning in a pool, a child falling from a balcony, a car accident, accidently striking someone on a bicycle, accidently striking a pedestrian etc).

It seems appropriate to me that he returns to India. His wife and son can also return to India. They do have good hospitals there, not sure why that is a humanitarian need here. I think it would help them all build a life away from this chapter of their lives. Show a bit of grace, people, he pled guilty and was distressed about his role in the deaths. The stop sign was not visible. It was a terrible consequence.

I'm not being racist but many drivers from India are driving like crazy in Canada and totally ignoring their safety and the safety of others. When I was driving in Surrey, British Columbia, I saw several drivers who are totally ignoring traffic rules and when I saw their faces, I'm sure they are from India. Those Indians who grew up in Canada and learned their driving skills here are very different from those who learned their driving skills in Indian. That's a FACT!

Not sure what the big deal is. He killed a bunch of cdns. He is not a citizen nor a landed immigrant. Remove him. Not sure why there is controversy.

Simple, move to a muslim country! Im sure the Canadians are pleased that you all are leaving.

Not sure why the all congregate in one area

At this point, it's not immigration anymore, it's invasion. So many don't assimilate, they just strictly stick to their communities and their ghettos, and don't mix with the rest or learn about Canadian values. It's not racist or xenophobic to want to preserve the country as it's always been. I'm from Québec so I sure do know what it is to be called all sorts of names for wanting to preserve our culture and language.

I feel sorry for the translator. Hope nothing happens to him.? Also surely security would have a sheet with pictures of those who are attending the event!?# awkward

bro, what are you meaningfully contributing through this video? there are a lot of brown people. so what? what is your point? what is the problem? how does skin colour help anything or anyone? it is unreasonable when you blame someone with discipline and who is doing well in their life for your choices and misery. especially when you welcome those very people to boost your economy, which they are. find some meaningful work, bro. wow, your data quality is amazing. you sure must have received top-grade education to conduct such amazing interviews.

This hypocrite must surely spend his holidays in Muslim countries like Dubai, Morocco ?? or Tunisia ?? !

Government's must make sure that immigrants are distributed across the country !!

I was there, vancouver, around 2018 to before covid, I feel they might have gotton the welfare wrong. my salary after tax,heath insurance is 40% left to settle all my living expenses. and who benefits? eg. drug addicts wait for free drugs every morning, a women keep boring kids to get free welfare, this I heard- a refugee with 3 wives and 12 kids got at least a free house and van courtersy of the local govt, a newly minted immigrant citizen also gotten $1200 senior welfare. Just felt that normal working folks are getting a very short stick. Also not sure if the free university education is all that good, it uses a lot of tax money, but higher earnings go to labour jobs like a roofer could earn $150k vs a business admin graduate earing $60k avg .

I moved to Canada since 2007. Overall, I am happy with Canada. I think a lot of new immigrants has unrealistic expectations of coming to Canada. I started renting a room in a house sharing the bathroom and kitchen with other tenants. But look at the new immigrants today, they all start living in nice condos. Condo rental price back in 2008 is also expensive compared with the income level back then. Sure, today’s market is more expensive, but what is not? But looking at the stock market, you don’t expect to buy Amazon stock at 2008 price level, are you? If Toronto is too expensive, then move to more affordable locations, eg. PEI.
