Well done Fifth Estate. The Chinese have completely taken over. I watch the border crossing show sometimes and when they come back from “vacationing “ in China and pretend that they haven’t brought anything with them and when their bags are inspected they have tons of stuff and have way exceeded the limits and they barely get a verbal reprimand. Let me see a Canadian whose family has been here for 9 generations get away with this. They are dishonest, money laundering scam artists. Yet, Canada still welcomes them with open arms. When will the Canadian government wake up? Having them take over this country is an insult to hard working Canadians and other honest immigrants. When they commit a crime of any type they should be deported. They’re always bragging about how rich their country is, then why do they want to come here? We haven’t invaded their country! Not that any sane person would want to.

I wonder where all the feminists are when sharia police harass a young woman for her fashion choice? \nOh wait I know they're to busy trying to get Due Process abolished so that women can have men imprisoned without a trial.

This is a pretty misleading video.\nYes, our minimum wage went up to $14/h compared to the rest of Canada, however keep in mind it had to accommodate to the cost of living. You're lucky if you can even find a LEGAL small 1 bedroom basement for $800/month. Its not common. \nA car? Brampton has the highest insurance premium in all of Canada. \n\nDon't get me wrong. I LOVE Canada, I couldn't see myself living anywhere else because it is my home. \nHowever, when you compare it to india, in India you're only paying for electricity, gas, and food that you need to buy at the grocery store. \nBut if you really needed to budget and save money, food is LITERALLY growing in your backyard! All the veggies, fruits, etc. You just need to buy the grains and proteins! \n1.5 lakhs sounds great per month. But 1.5 lakhs is realistically not enough to live in Canada. \n\nDon't believe me? Google cost of living in Canada. Google how much a family of 4 would need to make to survive per month in Canada. Also, make sure to check out CANADIAN WEBSITES for this data. (.ca sites or try Global News or CTV news since they have this data)\n\nThe problem is everyone that comes to Canada always comes only to one area which is usually Toronto! However this makes the cost of living go up to accommodate this many people. Compared to Regina, or St. John's not many people immigrate there! It is a smaller city compared to Toronto but at least it's more affordable.\nDo you're research before coming here. Find out whats the best situation for YOUR FAMILY and what YOU can afford. \nCanada is a beautiful place, and yes, Brampton does have a lot of the Punjab culture, but don't be fooled. Be prepared when you come to Canada so you don't have such set backs once here. \n\nHope this helps!!

multiculturalism hasn't failed multiculturalism with Muslims has failed u mix Muslims with any religion or people you get issues u mix Muslims with other Muslims and u get a even bigger issue just look at the middle east they're not taking in any refugees not including turkey

Just stay in your own country and get rid of the crooks, gangs, and politician ruining your country.. You're taking jobs and social services that belong to a country's own poor.

By these comments, Canadians hate immigrants even more than American white supremacists. This man is scared for himself and his family. His case is just ignorance. He doesn’t know the proper ways to go about it. Him getting a lawyer and what not has showed he’s a bit smarter than many immigrants seeking asylum but most cases people don’t know the proper way to migrate out of their countries. They just know that there are better and safer opportunities elsewhere. As for everyone whining about why he doesn’t speak English, not EVERYONE CAN LEARN AT THE SAME PACE. There’s people that live in other countries for years and only know enough to get around and then theres people that just pick up on languages In less than a year. The language doesn’t matter. I’m sure he knows enough to communicate with people. I’m more surprised at the amount of people that law this and law that. Yes there are laws that should be followed but do people even consider morality? I hope none of you alls countries go to war or are over taken and you have to try to seek asylum in another country because I highly doubt you all would escape the ‘proper’ way. Most of you in the comments are sick and sad and will never truly understand the despair these people feel until you’re put in their position. Don’t bother replying to this comment because I won’t answer. I said what I said.

They get 50k and then can apply for social benefits like other Canadians even though they’re NOT Canadians? Their kids go to public schools, and probably get free lunch and other things, at the benefit of tax payers. Asian immigrants are a different breed. They work, and education is very important to them, do you can’t compare the two. A bunch of BS liberal propaganda.

Canada was berating Trump on his hardline enforcement of our immigration laws and now that they're getting a taste of it they don't want them either. Hypocrisy at it's finest.

Why doesn't the US do a flyover and drop leaflets to the migrants of how it's going to be at the border?. We all knew this invasion of migrants was a well orchestrated event with planned busing, meals, transportation, media event stops where everybody got off the buses for the media event and then boarded the buses again. Ever notice the babies, consider the 7000 people, a good number of them requiring disposable diapers all along the way. Notice the number of people walking in Flip-Flop shower shoes that are totally impractical for walking any distance. If these people were walking you'd be seeing them sitting when the caravan stopped. Don't feel sorry for these opportunist they're getting PAID because we all know they don't have a hive mind seeking discomfort, exhaustion, starvation, pissing on the roadside, putting their children through a stressful event. Caravan is said to be 14,000 people now. With about 4,000 getting paid. The former ICE director says 18 to 20% of illegals have criminal records. The democrats are trying to conquer by occupation, eventually they will have our nation so broke the system of welfare services will collapse under the weight of sheer numbers of illegals taking a free ride. Then our nation will be socialist like Ecuador.

The only way that a refugee can be welcome it's to be polite with the country you're, not a muslim, keep the country clean, and please find a job and help native citizens to get a job before a savage, this is the most neutral way i can be without being a conservative or a leftist liberal.

As someone who is currently dealing with immigration Canada my only advice to anyone wanting to come to Canada is don't... especially if you're planning on doing it illegally and definitely don't bring your kids here illegally.. I was brought here as a kid and now have to deal with things I never planned for ... The laws are extremely strict and the chances of getting approved are low

that last bit was heartbreaking. jeeze there are some ignorant bastards in this comment section. i get that ignorant people are trying to make complicated situations simplified in their minds but these are human beings. you have no idea what they're going through and you're a bunch of hypocrites when it comes to your own family's history of immigration

Canada is so evil. They should just let illegal people live in their country. They're mean! To be honest, I'm a hypocrite because one time this guy walked into my house illegally and tried to live in my home. i said get out. i should've let him stay with me though.

You're supposed to have an emotional response to this and reflexively demand that these individuals get to stay despite the fact that they broke the law to get in. However it's important to note that every time someone like this man selfishly breaks the law to cross the border another man with a family just like his, that is going through the process legally gets screwed over. This is what happens when people listen to the left's fabricated, emotionally potent, oversimplifications with regards to policy. The people you claim to care about and want to be charitable towards, get hurt. This is one of the fundamental reasons why politicians like Justin Trudeau are such human garbage. Our borders need to be tightened for the good over everyone involved, especially Canadians. To do otherwise will just hurt people in the long run.

So if they follow the rules and regulations they are welcomed in Canada? \nBut if they follow rules and regulations to get in to America we’re.... racist...?

This is what you get when you play Immigration Bingo. He kept holding out for bigger and bigger handouts until he lost it all. I get the impression there is more to the story than what we're hearing, perhaps a criminal record or perhaps he is ungrateful and entitled, which (rightly) turns people off these days when things are tough all over. Being white and living in North America doesn't guarantee us anything. Where do immigrants get this entitled attitude? Talking to lawyers? Gulping the PC Koolaid?

Ice is sending all illegals backs costing citizens to much when they don't work and demand things that really their not even suppose to get . They work the minimum if that and then stay on welfare while everyone else who works taxes go up bunch of free loaders . In fact we are cutting welfare and and benefits because of this we try to be nice but when we are token advantage of . Sorry are states are full of these freeloaders were also cutting letting people in because they don't do anything but demand money when their not even suppose to get in the first place then they hate us anyway and go around flying their damm flag around hollering Mexico . Mexico don't even want them they refuse to take them . They are just using them to get votes . We have enough people Canada can keep them . If he get caught here they will jail him. We are tired of the Victim act many people here have issues here to . United States has taken care of everyone around the whole world when war happens , trading but we get the short stick everytime . Beside when war break out which it will. Do you really think United States is the safest considering we're Babylon. Tell me something why are Hollywood people moving to different places ? It's only a matter of time .

Nobody is listening to Gary the Groper anymore.....we're just waiting for the next election to get rid of him.

Bad things happen to people who break the law. He knew the score and took that chance. They think they will come to the states or Canada thinking they will get paid with welfare and free medical. Why can't they stay in their own country and make it better. They want to live off white people like whites owe them. They're wrong. Send him and his family back to El Salvador. He wants to live in a white country that speaks English & French but don't teach his kids or himself English or French. How pathetic.

Canada was berating Trump on his hardline enforcement of our immigration laws and now that they're getting a taste of it they don't want them either. Hypocrisy at it's finest.

Canadians getting upset? We're furious with Trudeau. Legal immigrants are especially. They see the unfairness of this as they went through long waits, expense, and legal channels to immigrate, only to see illegals jumping the queue ahead of their family members who are held in limbo in legal immigration applications.. Justin Trudeau is going to get absolutely annhilated in the upcoming election the likes of which no other Prime Minister has ever ever suffered before.

So you're telling me if i sneak into Cucknada illegally and let myself get caught they'll set me up in a 4 star hotel with room service? Packing my duffel now :D.

If Trudumb gets re-elected in the coming year, the Canadians deserve what they get. Many Canadian people can't afford good food, clothing and utilities and Trudumb is suggesting laviously treating illegals to free Hotel Rooms, room service, saunas, hot tubs and don't forget the free cell phone! WTH is going on?

What does Justine care? It’s not his money. Excuse me, I have to get ready to attend the mandatory re-education day camp. Maple syrup and pronouns.

A Immigrants life is hard we barley protest why because we’re to busy working our asses off .. I always saw my parents working doubles just so I could get a better future ... citizens see our hard work and get threatened of how strong we are that’s the only explanation I can see from people who are anti immigration

Pack it up and GTFO.\nSo sick of these entitled people showing up and thinking that they're going to get all this free stuff.\nFix the problems in your own country before you come here and expect us to fix them for you.

This man had more liquid assets than many Americans. Now he’s chosen to be separated from his children to try to gain it back...let it go! You cannot ever get back the time you’re losing with your kids! The world is dangerous! Your family needs you!

I don't understand what's the point you're trying to make with this video. It seems like you're trying to blame Canada and Trudeau for the situation that he is in; You (VICE) place emphasis on his situation and his family, trying to drum up sympathy for him, but the way I see it is, he's to blame for it. He came here of his own volition and with a family by trying to get around the system. That's doesn't make him sympathetic, it makes him stupid and naive and impulsive. Frankly, it insulting and infuriating because there are people who wait YEARS and pay thousands of dollars who are actually in need of coming to Canada. And now, because of people like him is the reason why the system is backed up to point of instead of waiting for 60 days, you have to wait as much as 20 months before you hear back (which unfortunately, encourages more border-hopping and situations exactly like this)

so what exactly is the problem? there are laws in canada - no you can't just walk in a stay and get benefits. if there is misinformation in the community migrating north, then who is at fault? if anyone from any country, regardless of race, creed, religion, sexual orientation - anything - thinks they can just go to another country with no strings attached they're crazy. I get the feeling this is meant to look like a racist issue - it's not. if you're white as snow, speak english and carry a bible, the rules are the same - you come legally, and go through all the paperwork and checks that are required.

You know how they say when they murder people they get to have sex with virgin’s did you know if a woman kills them they go straight to hell because of their culture women and children are worth nothing they’re just property they have no rights

I am white...I have been followed...I own my own home and was not treated fairly when I bought it...I was once volunteering at a Christmas wrap stand when a black man went off on me for being white. This is such a non productive and crybaby approach to the presence of hate in the world...you're never going to get rid of it...This is just hate towards whites...

Come on if you’re Canadian then it’s not a surprise that Aboriginals get it the worst. We all heard a aboriginal joke or made one and we all seen an aboriginal that is a complete stereotype from said jokes on the bus. It’s a pity.

I mean it Islam is based on terrorism but shouldn't we be punishing the ones who are in the other country killing soldiers and the ones who are living in America trying to cause trouble I think we should leave the ones who just want to live a normal life alone the ones they receive you just want to live here have family and her business they're not a threat the ones will try to make bombs and do it secret C or threats do you want to get rid of the threat go after the bad ones and leave the good ones alone

Ducks hang with ducks, deer hang with other deer, honey bees only live with other honey bees.. I think you get the point. We're made to have bias.

No Country is forced by it's obligations to sacrifice itself upon the altar of alliance.\n-Bismarck\n\nTake heed Canada, If you're pushing 40 like me you will not be getting any healthcare when you're older. That will be all gone if this continues. The best healthcare investment will be a gun, and a bullet, for your own head. Almost a metaphor for what Canada is doing to itself right now.\n\nJustilyin Trudeau needs to be removed from power by any means, sooner than later.

LOL just because our prime minister puts out a dumb tweet doesn't mean you're going to get a free pass if you have a criminal record they won't let you stay in the country

You're not a refugee if you flee through multiple countries to get to specific country

Trudeu has done what Merkel did. Saying one thing for show, making people believe that they can go, then once the people get there, it's shown that thse words where just hot air. Merkel even backed everyone up in Hungary (see the Eastern Railway incident) and put the blame on the Eastern European countries for not being humane. ?\nCanada's darling dear did the same thing here and everyday people hoping for a new life get the sharp end of the deal. \nI don't see why this moma's boy is so idealised. He's just spouting popular rot, then backing out. A nation leader should take care what he/she says, otherwise you're just another style of Trump to me.

I'm the whitest dude ever and get followed ALL THE TIME in stores. Likewise, the fact that they actually came out with the Implicit Association Test made this show lose all validity. Multiple takes of the test can yield different results, and as you take the test, you actually get better at not making mistakes. It actually forces you to make mistakes on the black faces. Take one, you'll see. Likewise, statistics exist. Mark is in fact more likely to steal than Rory. We're confusing overt racism with unfortunate group statistics. Also, Muslim isn't a race, but it is an inherently political ideology... Why are you guys so dishonest?

If you're not from Syria good luck getting in! Trudeau is a liar!

It's very hard to have sympathy for someone who just shows up and expects to get to stay.\nIt shows that you're an entitled brat who think they're special. Honest people apply and wait in line for their turn.\nIf you can't be bothered to apply for citizenship or recidency before you come to a country, then that should be an automatic refusal and deportation.

So you're accepted into the USA under a protection program, when it starts looking like your program is ending, you jump ship and start trying to ignore your program that your in that states you have to go home...\n\nThe mere fact that you're escaping to Canada shows you don't care about you immigration program and agreement, so why would we want to accept you? You'll just take as much as you can from our resources and economy and then jump ship the first chance you get, when you think there's a better oppurtunity.

Only surface level questions.\nWhy don't you do your job and figure out what islam is about?\nBecause you know very well.\nBefore 9/11 academics knew very well what islam was about.\nAfter that the elites started a propaganda campaign to convince everyone islam is the opposite of what it really is.\nYou're traitors to freedom.\nMuslim women who don't cover up tend to get murdered by their own family.\nOf course they 'freely' choose life over death.

Do the jerks in the comment section not realize that they're pointing out how important it actually is to talk about this sort of thing? The anger and pushback this piece is getting is why discussions about subtler forms of racism need to be had.

Well Canadians you voted in that lefty liberal Prime Minister and hes a stooge of EU . \nIslam is a cult threocacy hell bent in establishing a caliphate ( muslim law and rule ) . \nWe're in serious trouble . Get ready for a fight

America is not all about war war war and guns just because we have a big military jeez! And not everyone here has a gun, there are some people that just don't like them for different reasons.\n If you come to a place like Texas yea just about everybody here has one I do, but there are still people even here that don't like um. You can't be an expert on another country by being there 100 something days. And I don't understand where everybody has this impression that all Americans are fat. Americans come in all shapes and sizes the same as everywhere els and other parts of the country are more health conscious than others. In every state you will find hundreds of gyms and plenty of muscled up fit Americans.\n As for the health care thing, I don't get it either but that was Obama momma and his stupid ideas, he was trying to destroy this country on purpose you know he's a muslim and we will never let one of those bastards sneak their way in office again. Now that Trump is in office he is trying to fix that or make it better some how. I have often wondered why can't we have a healthcare system like Canada's but America spends all of it's money on so many things in the world because of our position on the world stage we just can't work that out, thats what happens when you're the world super power.\n Most Americans have health insurance through their employer, a certain amount is taken out of our paycheck every month and if I get sick or have an emergency I pay a small co pay at the doctors office which is 35 dollars and emergency room co pay is 150 the insurance pays the rest.

Maybe try getting people to recognize you as a person instead of by your color, race, sex, sexual preference etc etc......try being recognized as a person first....you're my friend first and then the rest is about you.....if you cannot understand that then you're not getting it.

Muslims are not bad we're normal people like everyone else what the hell is the problem I love Islam because I am a Muslim comment if you agree and if you don't get the hell out of here bc like I said we're normal people like Americans and everyone else in the world we come to America because we want to be safe here

Yeah, we're not so awful... I'm American, living in Canada, and honestly, I'm here for my husband, who is Canadian. I absolutely ADORE him. The only thing that annoys me about Canada is the fact they seem to hate diabetics, anyone on a low-carb diet, or anyone who just doesn't want to eat a ton of sugar. In fact I can't get anything sugar-free in a store (simple things, like sugar free coffeemate, sugarfree cake mix) unless I pay, I'm not even lying here, TWENTY TIMES THE PRICE on Amazon, (I'm not paying $85.00 for a 10.2oz canister of coffee creamer... WTF?) That is 3.49USD in any walmart. These people have to be kidding me.

If we're not careful, we'll all get sucked down into the hell hole of a pious, Islamist paranoia where Sharia is the order of the day. I'm not making this up.
