Canada needs to tax capital gains on housing at 90%, and use that tax revenue to fund innovation & job creation.

If Canada uses it's wisdom to choose a leader with an aptitude for economics, and behaves with the collectivistic humility we are known for, perhaps we will weather this storm and come out stronger on the other side. When making decisions from fear or anger, Canadians become individualistic and do our entire nation a major disservice by destroying any chance of using this crisis to propel our way out of the pit we are currently in. We need to avoid pointing fingers because for decades cowardly and self-serving decision-making have led us here. Never forget that the new immigrant delivering your food isn't your enemy - the con artist/felon trying to steal our resources and autonomy is.

High real estate prices have fueled hidden corruption by all levels of government. Until you try to build something you just can't imagine the fees and cost of regulation compliance. Since values keep rising there are more hands out demanding more by all levels of government. Another (sort of) related issue that has been ignored until recently has been Trudeau's reparations to First Nations. He has manipulated the courts and civil service to acquiesce to whatever is demanded. The province of BC just ceded sovereignty to an Island chain (Haida Gwaii) to an indigenous group that is against virtually any economic development. Northern Canada, as vast as is, is essentially blocked from new resource development. Every investment, including housing development, needs approval from, usually in the form of a payment to, an Indian Band. The level of corruption here is at South America levels.\n\nI think the unsaid part about excessive immigration levels the last few years was that was used to mask what the government was doing.

Tnk u seyi. Pls to be precise wot particular IELTS do I need, cos am seeing so many things confusing me. I took IELTS UKVI. Is it different ?? Can I use it??

Recent military retiree here. I've had to endure quite some time of my military service walking on eggshells because one of these snowflakes might get offended. I'm here to say sorry, but I need Soldiers focused on engaging and destroying the enemy. Not worried about using correct pronouns. Trans has no place in the military. Live however you want in your own home. Stop trying to make everyone around you engage in your fantasy. Catering to Service Members with a known mental illness does not increase our lethality as a fighting force. It is directly detrimental to that.

They need to impound these buses and never give them back use them for evidence hold onto them for about two or three years. Make sure whoever is behind us goes out of business permanently.

Roxam rd is a way the immigrants use to cross to New York from Quebec Canada. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau had the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) protect that crossing and had journalists arrested for reporting on it. Canada has always backed the U.S. but a tyrannical government is collapsing our country just like the UK and Australia. WE NEED YOUR HELP. Stop trying to punish Canadians and HELP US get rid of this insane progressive liberal government that is choking the life out of Canadians. If not… Canada will become ChinIndia by the end of 2025 and will be fully controlled by tyrannical communism , and globalists.

This is an invasion. How do they get on the planes in the first place? Obviously technology is working against national security and these individuals are learning about how to bypass the border patrol using cell phones and apps. We need to stop it and gain control.

Don’t they have tear gas or mace available? Seems to me that could also be used here. Even water canons. Stop pussyfooting around. We need to make them think twice or three times before pulling a stunt like this! If we keep trying minimum force that is not enough deterrence!

WAKE UP AND MAN-UP AMERICA! \nProtest don't just happen; they are planned, funded, and organized. These few protests are organized by the NEO-MARXIST COMMUNISTS (including 78 democrats, who are members of the Communist party of the US). \n \nThese communist democrats are an absolute threat to our constitution and nation, their agenda is to dismantle our republic, and constitution and replace it with a socialist system! History has shown that socialism does NOT work. Where there is socialism there is CENSORSHIP, corruption, poverty, totalitarianism, and torture. \n \nThe communist democrats, in their arrogance think they know what is better for the people. We, the real WORKING-CLASS American’s have not been on the streets, we are too busy putting bread on the table. However, our patience is wearing thin with the Marxist democrats, their lies, and their woke agenda! \n \nWhat the democrats have been doing with tax payers’ money is more sinister than “waste, fraud, and abuse.” THE Neo-Marxist (COMMUNIST) DEMOCRATS were using this extensive bureaucracy (aka “independent agencies”) to backdoor our constitution by implementing certain laws through certain agencies, and moving black funds through these entities to fund Marxist programs. \n \nThese agencies either need to be shut down or brought under the executive function. The communist democrats are pissed because their deliberate dismantling of our constitution was discovered, and now is being reversed. They are traitors (Bernie Sanders. AOC, Ilhan Omar, and others) who should be jailed, now. \n \nAnyone who does not believe in the constitution of the USA; leave our country and leave now! When we the people hit the streets, it will be in the tens of thousands. And we will roll over the neo-Marxist wokers like a tsunami. Socialism will never happen in the USA; socialism will never replace our constitution. WE LOVE TRUMP! He is a PATRIOT! \nMAN-UP America.

Well being at Joe Biden want it all these immigrants and illegals here they need to start taking him to his Delaware house let them hang out with him he's got plenty of money to feed them off let him do it American people are sick of this crap it's done and over with in every politician is involved with this needs their bank account stripped down phone in prison and use their money to send all these idiots back where they came from

Sane New Yorkers must, I say must, unite, rise up and take the strongest stand against their politicians and dim-whit voters! If they're in agreement with this insanity & rebellion then cut this state off from all federal funding and let New Yorkers pay for these illegals all by themselves. I don't want my tax dollars paying for any illegals. Especially when there are so many Americans living on the streets and/or not even getting by with this failed & fraudulent economy the Democrat Party has given us. Democrat voters aren't being kind and compassionate by wanting them here. They are enabling these people and by doing so, preventing them from growing up and raising their consciousness into a higher state of mind. By wanting to protect criminals, pedophiles, rapists, murderers, thieves, violence and rebellion from being deported, they're displaying for America they're psychology/consciousness of a death wish. This is a psychology of death and failure!!! The Democrat politicians and voters didn't vote for President Trump's agenda but the vast majority of We the People most certainly did. Chuck Shumer, Maxine Waters, all Democrat politicians and Democrat voters, YES, WE DID AND WE WON THE BATTLE!!! \n\nThese illegals are not weak and needing help. They're now uniting, protesting and waving their country's flag against their deportation, which they absolutely have no rights in America to do so. They have no rights here!!! That takes gall, audacity showing their rebellion against American voters and an unreality in their third world psychology to believe they do. We have been forced to deal with this abusive, violent third world psychology for far too long. They have a strong willpower so return to their country, unite there, raise their flags there and rebel against their corrupt government! They don't belong here as they don't have America's vibration. They just continue demanding and taking America by violent force. They are using and abusing tax payers' money and their goal of turning America into their violent third world hellishness must stop now! When they want to become part of America, get in line and make application in our legal immigration program. These illegals do not rate higher than those who are coming here legally!!!

We, as citizens, need to boycot the transportation services being used by these illegal interlopers.

There are BILLIONS of ppl who in Africa, South America and Islam multiplied one thousand times in 100 yrs. They will not stop rapidly recklessly multiplying and of course, high numbers of kids per adult, esp abandoned mothers, creates poverty. Even if they make it to adulthood on hand outs stolen from your tax dollars they cannot possibly keep up with infrastructure, housing, sanitation, education, roads etc for an exploding population. You cannot possibly keep up with their needs. Then they blame us for causing their poverty when ctually it's their own fault and these smears are propaganda to justify invading us, robbing us of our jobs, driving housing prices sky high and stealing our ID's, posing as us, and getting jobs they use to deny us survival in govt, banks, medical, housing, HR etc. YES THEY ARE> It's very obvious. They get a stolen passport then change the name, photo, reissue it and voila. They have their own corrupt people in position to do it on the back end. It's already been exposed in the UK for many years. It's a global program, carefully coordinated. And people in the inside are helping them led by foreign men in dresses. YES THEY ARE. The pope wants this. The Vatican has sworn to destroy democracy for as long as it's existed. That's a fact. There's zero liberty, votes, free speech in the Bible. ZERO. Read it again. Jesus rules with an iron rod over a global slave world in the end of the Bible after all the groomers promises. Seditious treason is a very serious crime. Acting to disassemble law and order in our world is TREASON. IDGAF if you think you are doing it for your god. Go to a country that wants a king who vows to slave you...not our democracy.

i dont understand why they dont just offer aid to families and people who actually need it and allow them to come into the country safely as opposed to forcing them to make dangerous journeys using gangs and risk allowing criminals or gang members to get in. By stopping immigrants completely it just shows how unsympathetic and selfish America is becoming.

CBC in Canada makes $1.8billion per yr paid for by Canadian Gov, using taxpayer money, and $500k in ad revenue, and now the Gov is going to give CBC another $1billion in taxpayer $ per yr. WHAT network needs $2.5 BILLION in taxpayer $ per yr, purely to promote Government propaganda!?\nWelcome to the lies of Canadian Gov and the loss of free speech in Canada

Do you have any idea the amount of inflation? That the illegal immigration is costing the American people in insurance hospital bills.\nThey are not helping the economy. People will lose their jobs to be replaced by illegal immigrants. Who are willing to do the same job for a lot? Cheaper. And never pay taxes on their earnings because they don't have to do their taxes when they're working for when they're working a** Illegals, they just need a pin number, but they never use the pin number to do the taxes and send all the money back to their country.That hurts the economy

Just going back to how it USED to be. I think thats a fine goal. Scams and Criminals advance all the time so keeping up with it all is hard. I think what we got now I best. Just need more fear mongering to get illegals to understand this is not the right way to come to North America.

Canada border patrol overseers need to do a better job in securing that part of the border on that side. They can stop those buses and check those planes for them coming into the US. They could do it and they could do better job in doing that they don’t want to do it. It’s not a difficult thing to do use their brain a little bit that they probably have that doesn’t make sense. They’re still coming in from Canada. They’re just not affected if they were then they wouldn’t be coming in or sneaking in by buses.

As a Canadian, I care more about who is getting into Canada than who is getting into the US. I want to know from my government how are these people getting into Canada in the first place?? Canada needs to fix how people are getting into our country first. Then this will naturally help keep these folks from using the land border to gain access to the US.

Still needs to be codified, because these criminal politicians will rip it up in 4 years and use the crisis again to GET RICH ???

I used to think Pres. Trump was being too hard on Canada then I got a look at the tariffs they impose on our goods. Some as high as 250%. I think Trump just wants a level playing field and a lot of help from Canada on the border. I think Poilievre feels the need to talk tough in response but I think he really wants the same things as Trump. I hope Poilievre becomes PM because he's conservative and I think he'll work well with Trump as they're both conservative nationalists.

We need to use our money for our healthcare system. Not for illegal immigrants!

Canadian liberal government uses Blackhawks to help the illegal into our country, they dont stop or turn anyone back! we need TRUMP to build a wall! for Canadians because our government is filled with socialists

Please stay away from Canada I moved here and I regret it every day. I'm a citizen through my parents and getting my certificate took YEARS which stopped me from being able to go to school or work which means years of my adult life wasted that could have been put to much better use for something that wasn't even my fault. I also lost good opportunities too because of it!!!! Not happy especially since I genuinely needed the money. I won't forgive Canada for that. Also everything here is really expensive and the selection is just not very good. Also work opportunities are not as good as in the US. Anyways I finally got my certificate and got my life started up again just over 2 years ago, but I still often think of returning to the US after just being here for 4.5 years. I now warn some of my US friends not to go to Canada just for the hype if they mention it. I also know of a friend who moved here and left after 1 year, they came to hate it here.

The cartels are telling these people to do all this on the border don’t be fooled! We need to stand strong, many of these people are terrorize why are we not using more military to stop them. We don’t look very capable of protecting our own border!

When I go to the hospital in Canada I don't have to wait if people think that then they're wrong and then I get treated and don't pay a thing so I hope Americans understand that they pay thousands of dollars for healthcare that most Canadians can walk in and get for free,, yes it comes off our taxes but everybody in the country taste those taxes even if they don't use Healthcare so it helps people that are really in need

I am a professional teacher, can I use work permit to travel to canada? Pls I need more explanation

Whether legal or illegal they were all able to come here due to the BLOOD, SWEAT & TEARS of Foundational Black Americans, the civil rights movement and act of 1965.\n They came from all over the world, adopted White Supremacy and treated Foundational Black Americans horrible.\n Now President Trump is going to use the 14th amendment Which was intended for slaves. He is going to use this to remove citizenship from all Anchor Babies so that they can return to the proper JURISDICTION of their parents native country. \n\n And it's funny because all of a sudden all of these videos are popping up from the African community, the Asian community and the Latino community now recognizing how they benefit from the Civil Rights Act of 1965 And now how they need to unite with FBA's???

Noone is to blame but Indian, i mean we need to look at ourselves first before criticizing other countries right to protect their culture, socity and jobs. if we are so great and talented then why we dont use our greatness and talent in our country to make it even greater

If you need to use force arm force us it

I'm born canadian indian we dont want people using our system go back to india we only need smart educated people not these people ?

Now all big Indian Techies and other influential and powerful Indians in abroad should come forward to give voice for Indians living abroad particularly who all hold legal visas like students and other legal permits etc and if possible they should create a fund to help our Indian students in financial, legal and other distress - may be given as loan. Influential Indians in USA should have used USAID program to channeled some funds to Indian students - no one wants to take risk but want to be good in American's Book! All big shots of Indian origin throw a little money may help these helpless students or may create like sovereign fund to help Indians who needs help in abroad!

Got damn this is very wrong treating them like criminals and all you see is they doing this only to Dark Skin people's of Colors got damn get off the Blacks and Browns and Mexicans and Native Indian people's thie what the White System do and they have nothing but Whites from different countries and nobody removing them this is mess up what the White System keep doing over and over on people's of Colors that don't look like them but use them for their work and anything else just to keep them Rich and the President of USA and his wife are not from here from America but nobody removing them and that Elon Musk telling Trump to do all this to the Blacks and Browns and Mexicans and Native Indian and Jamaican and African people's and he from South Africa and over here running America with Trump he is very racist against all Blacks and Browns and Mexicans and Native Indian people's and Jamaican and African people's and Trump no that put keep him because he a Billionaire and Trump only deal with people's who Rich and that's the truth he used those people's just for their needs and stay Rich and have power over others that do not look like the White System

India should not get into direct confrontation or discussions for such petty matters specially with Americans, UK, Germany, France, China, Japan, Russia, Oman, Saudi Arabia. People suggesting and raising such issues for illegal people are actually selfish , our quality of life (environment, safety, food, shelter, employment, education, basic needs) is average and not below average as portrayed in movies, tv and social media. Why should the government use tax payers money to bring illegal and greedy people and why we should show any sympathy. First be a practical and economic and security power house then go high on moral & ethical grounds.

Co sir here is crux i need help inform modi je = crux = you nailed ?it honorable sir \nonce your elected Honorable Pierre Marcel Poilievre= the ( elections canada2025???) priminister of Canada , we will our best try by best to acess of canada ??? India ??? consumer market of 1,454 million( 2025 ) \ni give u my word\nRoad map = travel through the Pacific Ocean, likely using the Panama Canal to reach the Indian Ocean, & your in india consumer market of 1,454 million people, which is roughly 1,454,000,000 individuals. \n\nits that easy ??????

We need to protect our country using armed guards, we’ve reached that point.

I love this as an Indian. Modi was getting too close to Trump and forgetting about our core foreign policy principles of strategic autonomy and multi-alignment. This is a much-needed wakeup call.\n\nNow I can tell you about at least one county that will be restricting market access further and investigating American tech companies after the one owned by Mr Sam Altman. Guess who's not purchasing the F35 or Strykers anymore that Trump was pushing on call with Modi. I can also tell what the world's second largest car market bigger than the US will think of Fords and Harleys and cooperation on China. Guess who's going to align with the rest of the BRICS on dedollarization.\n\nChoices have consequences. When the US wasn't here for the past four decades, we engaged with Russia to counterbalance China. If the US wishes to squander away the hard-fought goodwill it has built over the decades, it's upto them. We were aligned with the soviets before this, we can continue on that path.\n\nWe don't have to use Fords and IPhones you know, even if Modi opens up a little bit of market access for them. \n\nThey are within their rights to deport people violating the law, but if they're going to shackle them, our treasury is going to send more American dollars home. Dedollarization now.

As someone who works in law enforcement, I can say that from all types of restraints, those are used for longer transports because are more comfortable then the rest. When a person is in custody, per policy they need to be in restraints. Nothing wrong here.

Indian parliament is in session so opposition made this an issue. Deporting is common, but this time military plane was used. Expect more such drama in time to come. still US need to be sensitive to local feelings.

Wanted add here many foreign banks are coming in india and finding brilliant student thru camus hiring from this state only and using our bread and butter (our indian studant youth) for there work.\nInsted of they use, our indian government needs to find out and give opportunity for india success.

I have no problem with illegal immigrants being sent back—law is law. But what about the highly trained doctors, engineers, and CEOs who got their IIT/AIIMS education using Indian taxpayers' money, only to flee abroad for better salaries? If they want to stay in the USA, fine—that's their choice. But they shouldn't be allowed back in India when it suits them, nor should their relatives be allowed to demand their presence when needed. Instead, the Indian government should video-call them regularly, showing them all the new facilities and opportunities being created here, even planning a new city just for their return! Let’s see if they really care about India or just enjoy foreign comforts while pretending to miss home...

As an international lawyer, I worked for Lloyd’s of London for 17 years. You may not cross a land border, sea or air space without the permission of the nation concerned. Expelling 10 million people to bring them home means crossing one of these borders. If you do this by bus with a capacity of 100 passengers , you will need 100,000 vehicles . By plane with a capacity of 300 passengers, you will need to have a fleet of more than 30,000 aircraft. Understand that it is absolutely impossible for this to happen by violating the borders of a sovereign nation ...which would not, of course, return any of the vehicles used . People who promise, for electoral and populist purposes tell stories , lie to people who would do well to use a calculator ( and their brains ). Finally, I can’t believe that the crews of these tens of thousands of buses , planes , boats will be volunteers , who , if they manage to pass , won’t see their families again for some time .

They are rushing because they have no respect for our laws and our way of life.. If things are so bad where they are from, they need to get control of their own countries with the same amount of energy they are using on our border..

I used to go there when i was like 17 or something at the time all you needed was a Birth certificate and a drivers license now its a passport. I always enjoyed myself when i was there the people was so nice and what shocked me the most was interracial relationship. I plan to move there Fuck the USA it never has done for me and my people and probably never will.

If their illegal; don’t need a search warrant! These do gooders need to shut the hell out! Their probably using these immigrants to clean their homes!

That’s an invasion. Cut off funding to those free Visa cards. No free food no free medical. Or use the force needed to stop them.

Lets keep i real. The desire that most immigrants have is homeostasis which is the familiar. All humans do this. Individually indians are usually smart and decent people. But in groups ( and this doesnt just include indians) you get this group thinking that is prejudice against anyone who isnt one of their own. Im fairly certain its a good demonstration of what a different culture would experience in their own country. This is especially noticeable in markem with the Chinese population. \n\nLet me say this loud and clear. We didnt let you come here so you could start your own countries inside of our country. And beleive me, your gunna get rocked and put in your place if you guys keep coming here and being disrespectful. That goes for the any culture who is putting themselves first at the expense of other Canadians, and im not talking about white canadians im talking about all Canadians from anywhere. We re all equal and you will not be allowed to position your selves in a way that gives you immunity to these values. \n\nIm getting really tired of going into business like tim hortons and knowing what the nationality of the owner is by just looking around at the staff who work in fhe business. We let you have a seat at our table to break bread with us in a mutually benifital relationship. But what is pretty evident is that a lot of these people dont like us and if it was up to them we wouldnt exist. They fail to behave in a way that acknowledges the truth. That the family whos heritage is of this land, built this house that your living in. With our low corruption goverments , our clean drinking water, our free health care and education system, with our opportunities that make it possible through merit and hard work that it doesnt matter what family or where you were born. These are attractive features of canada that play a role in why people want to come here. And leave where they were. Its it logical to think that you have more to learn about us then we do of you? Not being on some selfish punk shit is canadas greatest strength. Its that same inclusives mentality that keep the government corruption very small which empowers the citizens to make them successful and able to contribute more back into this system. The very nature of hoarding resources for ones family, same culture, etc are the same oppressive situations many of these people left their countries to seek better opportunities. But once given those opportunities and a chance to decide for themselves, a lot of these people use their liberties to create exclusion and hostility toward out groups. The indians do this in a very overt in your face way, the chinese are more polite about it but both have this way of looking out for their own and not being concerned with anyone else. As far as im conerned you should all be split up and dispersered to live in different provinces and cites. I know this isnt realitic but it would save them from what a lot of them are gunna end up be exposed to which is experiences with native born Canadians who are going to very rudly show you what happens when you disrespectf someone in their own home. \n\nThe party is over. You people need to start being Canadian and care about Canadians like you care about your own culture or get the fuck out!
