Why don't your government stop issuing visa to Indians

all these issues can be solved at the border. no english, send them back. \nenrolling in private schools need more scrutiny. \nno arranged boarding and paid tuition for full term? send them back. \n\nisnt this what the Canadian embassy is supposed to do?! \nlazy officials.

Great video, non political. It’s hard to believe that neither of the large parties in Canada have a plan to mitigate these issues. They’re focused on maintaining their political donations that they barely make contributions. Even with a plan, there is no guarantee that within a 4 year term any politician will be able to impact change with the red tape that every previous government official has added. Decreasing taxes will create an uproar in the government employee. building a department to fight monopolies will require much more tax dollars and time that we don’t have. By the time these changes take place the population will naturally become high income individuals, with low income individuals migrating out of Canada.

I've experienced life in Montreal and really enjoyed it, but living in the USA has its own unique advantages and challenges. While there are both positive and negative aspects to living here, overall, I find it quite comparable to other places I've known. One of the standout features of the USA is the affordability of housing combined with higher incomes, which makes financial planning more manageable. Additionally, I've found that making friends here seems easier, perhaps due to the country's diverse population. When I first moved here, before getting married, I effortlessly connected with many Americans who were welcoming and open.\n\nHowever, I do have concerns, particularly regarding safety issues like crime and school shootings, which is why I've opted for private schooling for my five-year-old daughter. This is an added expense, yet manageable given the higher income levels here, which still allow for a comfortable lifestyle in a sizeable home outside the city center. Many significant companies offer opportunities, especially in New Jersey where I live, and particularly for those with higher education in STEM fields.\n\nIn my experience, opportunities in Canada or Europe can seem more limited in comparison. Despite this, I envision retiring in Europe, drawn by its unique appeal and lifestyle.

The biggest change is mass immigration from third world. There is the big issue most won't point out.

Then why they give citizenship and visas...just crying doesnt help. Stop issuing visas no one will come to Canada..talk to your government

People, especially American citizens who are giving lectures citing law of the country and police doing their duty should stop being hypocrites. Your government can't help being loud-mouthed nose-pokers- meddling into affairs of internal security of our Nation and calling us intolerant whenever we take strong action against troublemongers in our own country who attempt to break laws and create discord in society. Every country has its own way of dealing with law and order issues. Don't call the kettle black when you yourself are a singed pot

Canadian Embassy Issued Visa to Applicants and the same Canada is Denying Applicants from Entry into their Country Pls What best can we describe this Situation after paying huge sums of Money for the processing \nThe government of Canada should make a Press Statement that they have stopped allowing People into Canada for a Period so that the Public will stop Applying to travel to Canada. It is natural that Bee produces Honey and Sugar Attracts Flies.

Hello ma. Please we (I and my spouse) need your help with step by step Pr process to Canada so we don’t have issues. ??

I know some people may disagree with the Pro-Palestinian issue but you do not have to be this way with them. Just terrible.

Absolutely shameful video completely lacking nuance and in some cases full of blatant misinformation. 7% of Canadians move to the US? Seriously? Your highlighted text clearly says 0.7%. Cost of living in Canada is higher than the US? Have you...actually ever been to the US? Or, looked at statistics like the CPI? Living in the US is in no way cheaper.\n\nWe have genuine issues here and they need to be talked about, with a nuanced lense. This video and your production company are clearly intent on enabling polarization for views rather than being actually informative. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

We all like to blame liberals for this, and rightly so. However, most of the issues described in this video didnt start with liberals and will not end with the conservatives. Both parties have been robbing canada. Mr. PeePee isnt any better than Mr.Turd

Stop bringing in immigrants then and then watch your economy crumble. Canada has no problem bringing in immigrants who work hard, do all the long haul trucking and work all the jobs etc people born in Canada don’t want to do. Blaming immigrants for problems is as old white supremacy and racism in this country. The story of Building this country off of the back of new immigrants is as old as the railroad that built this country all done by Asian labour.\n\nPeople born in Canada also don’t want to have kids. Our birth rate is much lower than the US and other western countries. A high birth is the lifeblood of an economy and the future of a country. \n\nWhite people who are homeless and drug addicted is somehow the fault of immigrants? What a stretch. Brampton always has had white trash going back to the 1980s. I find it funny when the trashiest white people interviewed are calling immigrants a problem LOL. As if they were adding anything to the country other than drinking molson Canadians and smoking cigarettes all day in their garage like King of the Hill and spending their welfare check on drugs and beer.\n\nThe real problem with immigration is that the housing targets haven’t kept up. I feel bad for people who are living on the street and hopeless. This isn’t only a Brampton problem this is a problem across the country. If there’s anything this video highlights it’s the low housing issue and the targets set by the government. \n\nThis country will always need immigrants to support it. The key is to make sure we have the infrastructure in place to support everyone and that’s not the fault of people aka immigrants who come to this country and are told life is good here. It’s a problem of city planners and politicians who aren’t doing their job properly.

Lady, the saudis are literally at war with the houthis who are on the same side as Iran, hezbollah, Hamas. Also the saudis won’t go against the us on this issue especially when Saudi Arabia’s economy is reliant so heavily on the United States…. So after the long answer id ask her wtf is she talking about

This country? No, our government for some reason wants an insane number of people. Not the kind of people we need either, we need doctors so badly, not 1 million more students with no real skills. Also “birth rate” is an issue cause no one can afford to have a family. Importing a bunch of people isn’t going to fix the main issue. I just became a Lithuanian citizen and plan on leaving. I hate this country

well, there was the wave of immigrants that came to Canada from Europe, and pushed out the indigenous, and established the christian way of living, including christian churches all over the country. So, we are now seeing another wave of immigration. I think we need to put this in context of history. This is simply natural evolution and time to figure out a way to work together, get along etc.... Don't blame all issues on immigration, this is a narrow myopic view.

Stop the foolishness. I had my phone check at Toronto Airport in 2006 when I flew in from NYC due to my response to questions from immigration officers. I was a resident of US and my friend in Canada was undocumented, so i was hesitant to provide information about my visit. I had similar thinking then yelling at the officer as a Nigerian, but after 20years in US, I understand reason for it. If your intention for coming into the country is good, you will have no issues responding to immigration questions. You are granted student visa or visitor visa but your true intention is to stay in the country. Guilty mind always fear the truth

It blows my mind that we don't have the infrastructure or resources to support people who were born here, yet we will open the doors with many perks for immigrants to come here. I think we need a decade time out so we can sort out our issues before we invite more people to add to it.

May be it is not well illustrated in the video but it is hard to understand what the problem is. It appears that the fear of change is an issue. But change is inevitable. Canada is a multicultural society and that is protected by the constitution. So nothing can be more Canadian than bringing one's own culture here while adhering and abiding by the Canadian value system. I welcome the creator of the video to engage in productive discussion to know more about what are his concerns and try and identify the root cause. The video seems very Hinduphobic so may be it is about time Canadians become more aware and welcoming for other faiths.

I do not like the prime minister but I do not think he is entirely the problem. I mean right after his first term, COVID hit. It's trudeaus lack of experience and ignorance of the gravity of current issues. He definitely does not know what to do and that doesn't mean that the conservatives will know what to do.

He's saying, the Saudi's don't want to spend a cent on the Palestinians. It's their issue to deal with. If they die, they die.

Too much immigration to boost GDP figures. And all those people needs a place to live! They are not building homes as fast as they are importing new people! Same issue in Australia, but seems worse in Canada..

Honestly, its one of the best places on earth to live. Has issues for sure but anyone acting like its some dystopia has no idea what many places around the world are like.

Born and raised Canadian and lived 22 years of my life in Canada. Left Canada in 2005 and till this date, zero regrets. I went for an academic internship in 2004 during my Bachelor's in Electrical Engineering to University of Texas Austin. A professor offered me a position in his research lab for master's, so it was more like studying in US free of cost and earning monthly stipend for doing research. \nI never considered this as permanent move but quality of research I did in US, the opportunities and salary I received I could never imagine that in Canada. I am still in touch with my university friends in Canada work at low wages on obsolete tech stuff, with no innovation at work. Many of them want to move to the US, but for 10+ years they worked on outdated stuff, so they cannot compete with the talent pool in US. Even in 2004, I remember healthcare being bad and I keep hearing stories about how worse it has become. In US, I am covered by a good health insurance, I had surgeries for myself and my kids, and we never had any issues. Honestly, I can no longer trust Canadian healthcare with insane wait times for my kids safety.

Why do immigrants expect it to be an easy life and a job right away in their field? My mom was a doctor and dad an engineer. They weren’t delusional and knew they had to start again. If that’s an issue, don’t come here

I feel the most important issue for discussion can be boiled down to one question: Are pro-environmental regulation beneficial to the people? Personally, I believe the regulations have gone too far because the current mindset of protecting the environment from growth and development is now showing to come at a cost to the people.

It seems to me that a much better solution to the population growth issue is to give Canadians tax breaks for having lots of children, rather than importing people who won't integrate and who can't speak English. This approach would give the country time to build the infrastructure necessary to house everyone.

You keep describing it as an “infamous” ethnic enclave, kind of like when Oppenheimer says “Lewis Strauss was once a lowly shoe salesman”. It’s just an ethnic enclave. It’s not really that different from Scarborough, it just hasn’t been amalgamated with Toronto yet.\n\nI’m not pro-immigration, I think we need to sort out this cost-of-living issue by any means necessary (including limiting immigration if need-be). But you could walk through my city and interview people who would tell you that its dangerous, drug-ridden, gone downhill etc. and we’re still fairly white. I feel like a lot of what you’re seeing has as much to do with urbanization as immigration.

Here in Portugal we are having the same issue. House's price just went out of the roof and our income is very low. There are more and more homeless here than before. We are reaching to a no turning point everywhere. Earth is getting crowded ?

LOL everyone is missing the main issue problem is not that u r bringing Indians problem is Canada has set a very low bar for qualifications and ppl coming here (most not all) dont even get admissions in medium rated colleges or Uni's back home in India

These are Trudeau's and his buddy's friends in Brampton. Canada didn't punish the killers of the Air India flight 182 which was bombed by the Sikh separatists. RCMP and CSIS both did not act, Pierre Trudeau did not deport the offenders of terrorism carried out in India. Now Canada will have to make way for Khalistan in either Brampton or Surrey in BC. Goodluck to all of us !! Do the authorities even know that these people come with fake education certificates and discrimination certificates? When Canada puts down India through various issues, you are all going to get this rot.Canada does not want to co operate with India in cracking down on these people, instead they are putting false allegations against India. Diplomacy is at minus zero in this government. I am an Indian origin Canadian and we follow news in India. Orher Canadians should too and see the changes happening in India. Not being a G7 nation India's GDP has risen above Canada, France and UK. The politicians here have Punjabi hangers on around them. Either Indian Punjabis or Pakistani Punjabis. There is a great deal of favouritism by them. Canada must remove the chaffe and recognize the good qualified people.

*population growth* Nice avoiding the real issue. Lame. Next video, block channel.

Would be interesting to see how much of this consolidation is an issue of the state's making. You mentioned how regulations make starting a bank super difficult and therefore there's none, would be interesting to see the stuff required to make bread for instance.

home ownership is out of control in Canada because of Chinese moneys in real estate. I understand this is targeting Justin but the real issue is the Chinese investment pushing up prices to unreasonable levels. This is happening in other countries like Greece. New millionaires are picking up real estate in record numbers and thousands of new millionaires are being created in countries like India and China. Many of this could be money laundering like Russians and Chinese do in London and Dubai. What Canada needs to do is make it more expensive for overseas investors to buy homes, crackdown on criminal investments, increase the stock of homes, and reduce construction costs. Trudough does not have the balls to do any of this, as liberals generally lack discipline to be financially prudent.

As someone who is studying social work , the amount of policy hoops we have to jump through to be able to help people in need does not help the issue. There are steps and solutions to work on resolving the issue but it's not ministries main concentrations. I mean if you look at Olivia Chow the Mayor of Toronto would rather pay 12.7 million to change a name of a street than address the homeless issue.

Woww!!! this video captures the issues in Canada perfectly. Impeccably accurate.

The underlining issue wealth inequality. The middles class is being attacked and they don’t even know it.\n\nIf there’s no legislation or bill to stop rich from buying middle class asset it is going to get worse. The rich is always going to have money. \n\nAnswer is to nationalise the housing market. That way you can build homes and sell it or rent for a affordable price.\n\nImmigration is a scape goat. The issue is tax the rich and wealthy elite.

The problems in Canada are the same as those in other countries! It is a world wide issue.

That student was a weird example just taking one class, most provincial rent increases are capped, the housing crisis has been going on much longer than the Trudeau government, the government has made changes to reduce money laundering but they only contribute about 10% to the housing price inflation. Your legitimate points are hampered by sensationalist examples. I like that your covering these issues but you need be responsible in how you portray things. Unless you’re just a tory schill, in which case carry on.

He is just focusing on immigration to get higher and higher, but without worrying about what it causes. \nStop saying immigration is they key to all of issues in Canada. That’s too easy. Canada becomes a buffer country just a secondary country to go to. Economic and social immigration is great and awesome for the country but it must be used correctly !

The Biden administration could stop this issue. it's a self-inflicted, enormous immigration failure by only Biden.

Will be in Vancouver this Friday from SO CAL. In general, your city just like any major cities in USA are having the same issues pretty much. It is worst here in Los Angeles, San Francisco I think. \n\nWe were in Toronto for a short time and enjoyed visiting cities outside Toronto as well. \n\nI did not see much homeless or safety concern at all there in Toronto unless. I agree our (corrupted) politicians and corporate control of our governments are major issues.

The issue with such channels is that all they do is create unrest amongst people. If they actually provided solutions that a common can implement instead of blaming it all in the government then it would be so much better. All such pages do is spread propaganda. I'm not saying it's not the government's fault, I'm just saying there's many other factors that led to this and not just the government.

Most people are too ignorant on the actual facts to even be speaking about the issue

Ahan another guy with painful micturation issues ?

28 weeks later, still protestors forcing their issues on another country 1000s off miles away. Want a cesfire to get hamas to stop there activity. ..

Tell your Arabic counterparts to live together and unite with Israel and cooperate with Israel ?? Israel is a shared land between the Jewis and Arabs. We discussed the issue many times.??

Don't you think this is a bit sensationalist to say no one wants to live here, considering millions are immigrating each year (way too many of course, but clearly many people want to live here)? The housing shortage started decades ago with the defunding of CMHC, which you didn't even mention. I guess it's convenient to have one (contemporary) scapegoat as opposed to realizing that all of these are systemic and GLOBAL issues that have been brewing for some time. Political parties are simply corporate pawns, and this is the same the world over.
