!!! No more illegal immigrants and refugees. !!! Go back to your country, stand up against your government. For your families and country, not us or Mexico. You are not welcome to my country, go back. !!! ?

The exact same thing is happening to the UK. Tens of thousands of illegal immigrants (economic migrants) from Africa, the Middle-East, and eastern Europe are crossing the English Channel in small boats to illegally claim asylum in the UK. 200,000 criminals masquerading as refugees have crossed the English Channel so far, only for our worthless government to accommodate them in four star hotels at taxpayers expense instead of detaining and deporting them back to their country of birth.

He is NOT a refugee so Asylum is not acceptable. Nor is he an Immigrant. He is an illegal economic migrant - please use the right terminology. He left a safe country for Canada and he should be returned to the USA or his home country. No sympathy.

When did half the world become so entitled that they think they can go wherever they want illegally?? IT IS ILLEGAL, they should be put in detention centres or jail with no freedom like the criminals they are! Stop making it ok, stop giving them the free crap they come here expecting! Jail or deportation, 95% of these people are NOT refugee’s they are illegal economic migrants who come expecting everything and we give it to them! They will never stop because they are entitled people who have no problem committing crime to get what they want, to go where they want. One boarder crossing road closing is too little too late, they’ll find another way because they have no morals. It won’t be long before Canadians are the minority in our own country. It’s madness and needs to stop. If you can’t come in legally, stay away! Illegal migrants are NOT WELCOME HERE!!!

illegally immigration is end - period !!!!! 1 refugee = soon 200 family members...no more no more;\nfor Tax payers in Canada Trudeau has food bank and euthanasia; for Liberals election slaves houses, money, lazy social life...

I am an American living in Québec. The woke media would have you believe these are refugees. These are illegal migrants, many of whom are facing expulsion from the US. Thank God this was just closed. We in the West need to immediately extract ourselves from any and all international conventions on refugees. These are economic migrants. Real refugees couldn’t afford the trip to illegally cross the border and are in some refugee camp overseas. Millions of taxpayer dollars in Canada are wasted on these faux refugees. Deport them now!

FINALLY!!! NOW DEPORT ALL OF THEM WHO CROSSED ILLEGALLY \nCOME IN LAWFULLY ! \nTHE CANADIAN PEOPLE WELCOME LEGAL & LAWFUL REFUGEES ONLY.

I hope those refugees and illegal entries won’t bring burden and chaos to Canadian government

Liberals: ms-13 crossing Southern border is refugees that need our help\n\nAlso liberals: Americans leaving communist new York for Canada are illegal border crossers\n\n??

So Canadian Police cross and you will be arrested. Okay let me take your bags… the F.\n Canada has the 2nd highest homeless rate of the G7 nations. We have the 2nr highest housing bubble. We cannot help our veterns who served and actually contributed to our way of life but we will find money and homes for illegal immigrants and refugees.

They are not refugees, they are criminals illegally crossing the border.

Why illegal migrants are categorised as refugees, asylum seekers? \nCanada points based immigration system whereby ppl pay a lot n wait for so many years to go to Canada feel cheated by Canadian govt. \nVery soon they end up like Belgium or Southern France. #fked

The USA are a secured country, anyone trying to flee it through that illegal passage should not be considered as refugees, but as immigrants who are trying to get in illegaly. This is unrespectful to all those who are applying to come to Canada but are refused (for other reasons than serious ones). I know that no human being is illegal and everyone deserve protection, security and happiness, but come on, what danger are they fleeing from the USA?

There NOT illegal for godsake there refugees from war torn countries

Hey CNN \n It is not illegal to be a refugee.\n There is nothing illegal about crossing that border.\n The term you’re looking for is “undocumented”\n If you need someone to fact check your shitty journalism you should put out an add

Ironic how nobody bats an eye when illegal European refugees flood and infest other countries yet their hypocrisy can be seen which it's about POC.

*drugs?*\n\nas long as canada & the u.s.a continue to consume illegal drugs from south america, there will be influx of refugees

This policy encourages people (regularpeople, criminal) ?all around the world try to enter illegally to canada as a refugee, becuase to enter to Canada as a immigrant, you need to spend a lot of money, wait for 3 1/2 to 4 years (if you get 70 points, you will pass otherwise you are rejected), then you need to have money to come here to settle down and find a job (then you need Canadian experinece)...... abd so on. But as a refugee, all expenses is paid, you do not need to pay for rent, and so on... WHICH ONE DO YOU CHOOSE TO ENTER TO CANADA!!!!????

Yooohooool canada is an open zoo, refugees illegal migrants, we will have more people workin in our groceries and fastfood chains, thats what canada wants, its probably way more expensive to provide free healthcare to them, if I was one of them geez i would go for it, meanwhile the rest of us taxpayers cant even afford roof over our heads, inflation and zero raise!

Close the border, we do not want them in Canada. Inflation has gone through the roof we xan afford houses but these refugees get houses and money from my damn taxes to illegally enter here. Enough is enough

The people crossing into Canada illegally aren't refugee's. They stopped being refugee's when they came into the USA because they were then safe. They are picking and choosing with Canada. Ship them all back across the border to their own countries. They want to come to the USA then they can do it legally like the millions of others that have come before them.

Largely economic, not refugees fleeing persecution. You do not get to country shop, and these who enter illegally just stay while their cases overwhelm the review process.

What they don't tell you is like a year or two later a lot of these illegal immigrants ( refugees?) realize Canada is too cold and way too expensive..\nCost of living is going through the roof, Especially with food.\nIt so bad that many actually return to their country of origin!

*Did your white ancestors arrive legally?*\n\n*Trick question, there was no such thing until recently when some white people got overzealous with the stolen land. And Mexicans (who are also North Americans) and South Americans have always traveled throughout these lands. White people have NOT.*\n\n*Not saying white people can’t stay per se, just don’t be heartless mindless hypocrites with the STOLEN land. ESPECIALLY if you STILL treat Native Americans and other Indigenous Peoples like ethnic Mexicans as invaders and so-called “illegal aliens” (as ridiculous and offencive as that term is in the first place) when they’ve always been here and your ancestors came either through invasion or being refugees themselves not that long ago!*\n\n*Remember whose land you are on.*

Raising immigration thresholds to this level in such a short period of time is more of a calamity than good news! For example, all these illegal immigrants, known as asylum seekers, who cross the Canadian border daily via Roxham Road in Quebec - Ottawa forecasts that they will be 50,000 for the year 2022 - are taken care of by the State, and as long as their refugee status is not established, which can take three to four years. Thus, in the meantime, they do not work since without a work permit. And who should take care of it in the meantime? The Trudeau government is irresponsible!

i just wanna say something, those fake refugee and illegal economic immigrant, you guy can leave that country if you dont like their culture without sharia, there got bunch of country with sharia law in the earth

Ha if you had $15.000 for a lawyer then you didnt need refugee status. You already had money that would have lasted a long time in Mexico or El salvadore. Same goes for any illegal who spent THOUSANDS to the cartels to help them cross illegally into any country for that matter.

2000 to 3000 refugees are walking across illegally into Canada and our government ‘welcomes’ them. 😂🤣 We are fools. We can’t even house our homeless or veterans, yet we give out everything to others. What a sad country.

I think if you were a doctor or a nurse in your old country and you immigrate to Canada you should be able to continue on in your medical field here in Canada without going through all the BS of exams. This is why we have a shortness of doctor's and nurses here in Canada because the frigging Government won't do anything about it. Except bring more and more refugees in to Canada and illegal migrants using up Canada's healthcare system that the Canadian taxpayers in Canada are force to pay for even though they have family members who are in dire need of medical attention, but the line up and wait time to see a specialist takes a lot of time. If a immigrant is coming to Canada and he or she is a doctor or a nurse and English is not their first language, well then put that immigrant person in an ESL class to learn English or a French learning class if that person is moving to Montreal or anywhere else in Quebec.

Any parent who teaches their children to do illegal actions doesn’t deserve to be a parent. The government did not separate your family YOU DID. Quit your whining and go go back where you came from. You lived in the US for 15 year now seeking refugee or asylum status in Canada.. What kind of parent are you? Lots of Latinos here in Canada lately. Immigration should do a round up in Walmart.

There is a clear difference between an economic refugee who enters illegally and being a immigrant going through their legal system to provide valuable skill sets to their society.

He’s not a refugee of course that’s going to get denied ... he’s a dude that crossed the border illegally and now trying to work the system in Canada ??‍♂️...

I didn't hear anything about what he was seaking refuge from. Was it economic ? Refugee status is not for economic reasons. And what Canadian is on an unemployment line that would be able to feed his family with the job he took, illegally ?

Does the word 'refugee' not have any meaning to anybody anymore? Pffft. It's like this in Europe. Let's be honest, most are economic migrants not refugees and I find it deeply insulting to see such powerful words abused and entirely watered down in meaning. It's like the gross abuse of words like 'phobic', 'fascist' and 'racist' etc. The more you fling them around as pejoratives that enforce or heighten some emotional angle in your rhetoric, as a dopey shorthand smear word, the greater the REAL damage. If you genuinely care about words and their meanings. There's nothing wrong with immigration whatsoever, the problem is illegal immigration and people who play the system. It angers everybody, especially other legit immigrants, interestingly enough. I laugh at these soft-headed, sheltered types believing all the sob stories they're fed, the images they first see and take entirely to heart. When you live 'in it' you can spot a load of old bollocks a mile away.

Anyone who's visited China can see that Canada is huge and empty. Illegal immigration paranoia is not what we need right now, as climate change is going to lead to a billion refugees. The west needs to make plans for absorbing many many more people than we have in the past.

If someone wants to come illegally live work and so on then I can see a problem. Why can't people just go the legal route? Also this guy came with his family from America which is NOT a country of refugee status or seen as an endangering atmosphere. He and his family were accepted in the USA so automatically he loses his refugee status when trying to cross into Canada. We have rules for a reason. I just love how people ignore this simple fact

Genuine asylum seekers normally would accept refuge at the first safe country they arrive,\neconomic refugees only looking for the rich countries of their choice to cross into illegally.

ALL other provinces NEED to ENFORCE a complete BAN on any Illegal REFUGEES Trudeau is allowing to break The Law. So If Trudeau keeps Roxham road open then KEEP ALL the fake REFUGEES QUARANTINED in Quebec and Ontario ONLY! While allowing people who think Trudeau is a goof a chance to get out of the Illegal Refugee zone. All those who didn’t vote for the clown Trudeau or NDP are welcome in the west. All provinces Must fight back!!! This clown is killing us!

So what this propaganda video is saying is refugees and immigrants get the same as Canadian citizens. Enough said. Its bad enough shelling out my money for Canadian citizens but I have to do it for illegals and immigrants as well. I don't remember voting on such crap. The Canadian government are a bunch of crooks. You work for us. We pay you. Be accountable to us your employers and do your jobs.

To keep citizens a priority over the influx of immigrants and refugees Denmark had cut welfare benefits to illegal immigrants and refugees and many began leaving to more profitable countries (in benefits). Why has our country not put something like that in place? It definitely would sort out those who came for the 'freebies'.  ~ Denmark's ‘integration benefit'  measure was a significantly lower benefit level being offered to people who have resided in Denmark for less than seven of the past eight years. Foreigners will also receive a financial incentive to learn the language. These were 'integration benefits'. Citizens who have lived outside of the EU (or country?) for seven of the past eight years were also subjected to the new rules. The purpose, to make Denmark a less attractive destination while making it more attractive to work and contribute to Danish society.  It reduced the flow in to a more manageable number.

For thousands of years we had boarders languages and cultures... now socialist lunatics opened borders , allowed illegal immigrants just to show up and expect tolerance . The illegals are not tolerant to our boarders ... I have a right to rent to whom I want a rent too... I will not rent my house to Somalian refugee . Yes I will rent to a couple like me . Nothing wrong with that

Refugee claim denied because it is a fraudulent claim! Wasted your money? How about you enter through the correct ports of entry, using the correct legal avenues? Your time and money spent, would have been much less and you would have been granted citizenship. But, nope. Illegally enter one country. Circumvent laws. When that doesn't work. Do the same thing in another country. They cry foul. Got it.

Okay I'm sorry but what country welcomes illegal immigrants with open arms ( besides Sweden even though they are cutting down on immigrants refugees). Then why do all these illegal immigrants refugees always thinking there is a promise? No one promised you anything!

I remember when my family immigrated here over 15+ years ago and my brother was only 1 years old. 2 weeks after coming here he slipped on the floor and cut open his forehead on the hinges of our door and he was bleeding everywhere (he later had to get 6 stitches to fix it), my father was out working and we didn't know how to contact the police or hospital because we didn't have a home phone yet. We used our neighbors and the ambulance came and I strictly remember that because we didn't have our health cards yet they wouldn't start work even though my father said he will pay when he gets there. I remember my mother and I feeling helpless while my 1 year old brother was bleeding out (the hospital staff tried to stop the bleeding with cotton ball and bandage) and I distinctly remember that they did not start helping my brother even WHILE my father was paying but only started work after the bill was completed. Even though my family felt helpless at that time and we felt it was unfair, we never blamed Canada because it was their policy and they have every right to follow protocols. So it makes me angry to see people who walked into our country illegally getting far better treatment than my family ever got even though it might not be anything as life threatening as ours was. It makes me angry that our hard earned tax dollars are used to help people who have no motivation to help the country that gave them asylum during war.. It's actually the opposite as a lot of these families call their free housing "disgusting" and compare it to "living like a slave". I'm angry because little girls at my brothers own school are getting shoved and assaulted by refugee boys as young as 6-7 and are let off with a simple "don't do that again" and a meeting with the parents. This is not the Canada my family came to love and call home so I can't imagine the hardships of Canadians who are living here for 3, 4, 5+ generations 😔😔

Considering many needy Canadians do not qualify for social assistance and have no access to interest free loans to get back on their feet if they are, say, homeless or in financial trouble, this just stinks. While the video tries to downplay elements, the bottom line is that illegal refugees are a massive drain on social support services that many needy Canadians are not getting who also need it. This is an utter joke.

wake up folks and get this maggot prime minister trudeau OUT! If he has his way... refugees will have the right to vote....buying votes is illegal!!

I am a legal American citizen and I do not get any free health care! I have paid into social security since I was 16. I have earned my social security over the past 45 years. I also have to pay my own legal fees and my taxes paid for my child to go to public school. I do not know of any other country that gives refugees or illegal aliens ANY money or services!

Let’s build a wall, and ask Trump to pay for that, it looks like all the illegals and refugees are coming from US...

3:37 a refugee is someone that can convince an adjudicator that they will be persecuted or in immediate danger if they return - this guy appears to be a total economic refugee.\n\nLook at this case - 15 years in the USA - over 15 years outside his home country\nNo evidence of his risk to return to his country.\nNo visible ability to speak English, none at all. Or his family. How is that helping his case? \nUnder the table money - if oil patch workers cannot work in Alberta how can legally he frame houses? \nSkips hearing to hide his family - automatic deportation order. \nRefugee is a Federal matter, so how can skipping across a Province delay his hearing? \nUnaware of even basic laws and rules - his expectations were false and he is an illegal trying to claim refugee status. \n\nReally not sorry for this particular case, he has no idea of the rules and regs and expects things will bend and go his way. His lawyers took his money and it appears he had no idea of the minimum requirements to stay.
