Canada's carbon footprint on a global scale is insignificant. Meaning even if we burned nothing starting tomorrow, It would not affect global warming much. All these clean future policies are just a political act.

Political promises are rarely able to be fulfilled

This is a worldwide phenomenon. Since the early 80's reactionary forces, the rich, the politically connected, became successful in fooling the middle class into voting themselves out of the middle class. It's too late now for the middle class to put progressives in power and expect real change. The reactionary forces are the real deep state that control the money and power. They are able to stop any action toward income equality that would build a new middle class by scaring and angering an easilty led electorate into voting against their own best interests. Yes, the future doesn't bode well for Canadians, Americans, French, Germans, Australians, Japanese, well you get the picture.

I think Indians are great but the government is lieing to them and they are also getting screwed we're all getting screwed here by politics

Politics aside, no country seems to be doing well… yes Biden and troudoieu (however you spell it) both suck, but even if we had different leaders, I think we’d be in a similar situation..

Good to know it's not just my country. We elected the same prime minister four times (or is the fifth now? idk, i don't count it at this point and don't follow politics) and the housing and food prices are as bad as in Canada. You can't even dream about buying a house without a loan, or without working for years in Austria or Germany. Regarding the food prices, I don't know the exact numbers, but I remember that when I was 18 (in 2018) one kilogram of bread was 0.77€. Now it's 2.32€. like wtf really.

Justin Trudeau is giving designated criminals of India political asylum making a safe haven for criminals all this for vote bank politics

So to be clear, what he said so politely is, no one in the Arab war wants them, they should stay where they are.

the consequences of electing a handsome PM with zero brain and political talent...

The GOVT WONT solve this problem because if they actually meet the 5M new houses target and the housing becomes more affordable, imagine what happens to the cost of the existing houses and the loans that go along with it! Many people have just bought houses at 3X the asking prices thinking they can sell it 5 yrs later and never actually to pay it off, all those people will be screwed and in banks will be screwed in return. This huge immigration was just to strengthen the vote bank and not really to improve the economy of the country. It's a very old political strategy and people still get fooled and vote for it. Liberal parties just openly encourage immigration to just get a good vote bank and stay in power. Best of Luck Canada!

The issue with Indian immigrants is that they have brought political disputes to Canada, including the involvement of the Indian government in the targeted killings of Canadian citizens of Indian origin. The Indian government is sending assassins under the guise of students. The Canadian government needs to stop the influx of Indian students and immigrants.

Dear Canadians. Stay in Canada and fix your country. Don’t bring your politics to the US and bid up our prices

The gouvernement politics is wrong run the ring

In a very nice polite way, we don't want them and it is not our problem.

28-year-old Female Sydneysider from Australia here. Apologise in advance for the long post and rambling.\n\n\nNot sure if it is just me, so please correct me if I am wrong. Just probably now too overly 'realistically too cynical'. So please take my input with a grain of salt. 

For context’ sake, for most of my adulthood I have always been poor & I am born with special health needs (E.g. disabilities).
\n\n\nSometimes on forums we are often contrasted to Canada, for some reason. Both Canada and Australia have remarkably similar problems with a different coat of paint. Sydney, for instance, has always been high up in the list of the cities with the highest cost of living in the world. Usually within the top 10-20. 

COVID-19 obviously made this issue clearer in some circumstances because we couldn't 'work' at all. Unless you were an essential service worker, to mentally block out personal and local difficulties.\n\n\nWe still have not recovered from that 2–3 years global shutdown. The only reason I was allowed to work for a period was because I work for the animal industry and aid in animal welfare. 

I still lost my job due to COVID-19 regardless and knew I would never get a decent job again. Merely just the last poor sod on the boat to be thrown off. 

Could not become a vet nurse despite working very hard. Just because no one wants to give me '2-years permanent paid experience’ to be taken seriously. 

At the same time, way too many employers will happily take 2+ years of veterinary students volunteering at their vet clinic. With the vague promise of a permanent job.

Which, of course, never happens, then say we are being too demanding or spoilt for politely asking for said job.\n\n\nHow are we supposed to pay off our student debt if any financial service expects us to have a per meant job to pay anything off??

 No, they do not want to train nor help you. They just want free labour, then kick you out once your time is up. All my jobs have been casual, and my animal industry has already become heavily casual based ages ago. Permanent job is like looking for a magical unicorn.\n\n\nSo, even if you and your relatives lived in the way outer suburbs of Sydney for decades, being typically considered roughly lower-middle socio-economic families. 

The younger adults and kids all know and have been aware for years, they have no future at all due to having an inflated cost of living. Sugar-coating it, saying it might go in a positive direction, sounds like a blatant lie. We all know it is a lie.\n\n\nNowadays, in contrast to the late nineties and early 2000s when I was just a tiny naive kid that didn't know any better. There seems to be a more jarring split between the income brackets of what the country assumes who is poor, middle class or rich today. 

\n\nBy today's standards, my family is no longer even considered close to the very lower end of the middle class if you were reaching hard. We are considered 'poor' just because my parents do not earn roughly $50,000 — $150,000 AUD a year on their own in 2023. When I worked, I usually earned $30,000-$35,000 AUD or less per year before COVID-19 happened.\n\n\n(Source — https://www.news.com.au/finance/money/wealth/middle-class-aussies-were-living-better-in-the-early-2000s-than-they-are-today/news-story/fe173db5bbe2b705a8d05df8c5cb14ee)\n\n\nLife is only comfortable living there if you're a selfish landlord, a nepo baby, new money or old money.\n\n\nI feel like most governments and other systems are only strictly being run by sociopathic narcissists that only want us to stay poor to remain in poor conditions to benefit off of. Wouldn’t want any kid to be born in a world where there are no safe guarantees for their future if their guardian unexpectedly passes away or can longer care for them. 

When something does not change within roughly 5–10 years, it is more than simply just valid for us to feel like we cannot fix what has been broken.

Canada is physically beautiful. but her political system. people suck. ?

polite way of saying NO ONE wants Palestinians

Nepotism in Politics is equivalent to Directorship. \nPolitical Dynasties ruins countries. Trudeau family is the same.\nI have noticed that Justin Trudeau is now bringing his son to Political rallies and when he has to make special announcements. This is a clear sign that his Son will follow in the footsteps of his family's Dynasty Politics.

Punjabis in foreign are very anti-India, yet they retain their OCI cards. Why do these Angrez- Sikhs have a say in Indian politics when they have become nationals of other countries like Canada, the UK, and the USA? I don't see Gujarati or other Indian communities that have settled abroad, become so anti-Indian. Only the Punjabi think it is only their issues that matter and need publicity. By the way, I have personally seen a lot of discrimination in their community, especially between Jatt and Dalit Sikhs. Maybe they should look within, before looking for a new state.

Canada was founded on European immigration and culture. This is no longer. Canada is now majority Asian/East Indian and Middle Eastern culture. Canada has lost its founding culture and values. Canada is now presumed dead to those of us who remember the REAL CANADA! Sooooooooooooo Sad! We gave it away to increase political votes and more tax dollars. Canada lost it's wonderful European heritage. I dearly miss CANADA.

Yeah, i blame devisive politics that spill over from the US, as well as foreign interference. It's pretty clear that people are pushing divides. Blaming JT for inflation caused by global markets and exacerbated by Trump and covid is just silly.

Indian Punjabi and Pakistani Punjabi....in short Punjabi likes to migrate overseas thay are all over the world & dominant in international affairs, politics and leadership ❤

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.

This is World wide not just in Canada or America ! Look out side and you will find this is in Every 1st world Country . Because of the monopolizing of everything . We the Consumers pay the price !! and think one Person is the Blame this is foolish Look at your self and ask am I taking the path of least resistance ? Electing the Liars because they say nice thing get you in bed and in the morning now your money is gone and you are left with the bill !! We are being manipulated by our own biases based on our political systems ( Nothing is Free ) !! The Tax payer has toy pay the bill one-way or the other But not the Monopoly's ? . We all have the power to take back the system . we just have to Elect the people that will fight for you and not the Corporations .

Classic case of 1% of Khalistanis are damaging 99%. \n\nI'd say, to all my Sikh brothers, to oppose the Khalistanis, else their crimes will be washed on you, and the 1% also want that, so that they can increase the differences, and more divide means more easy vote for them in Canada. \n\nWhenever there is a Khalistani protest, Organise a Pro-Sikh/India protest, This is the only way to deal with it, Khalistanis use our sikh brothers shoulders to fire their weapon. \n\nAlso, Today I came to know that in 1984 riot no one was punished..\nBut what can we do? Congress has painted themselves as the SAINT of Democracy, when their hands are blood soaked.\n Nellie massacre was also one case where No one was punished. \n\nWhat a tragedy in our independent history just for political mileage.

Stop importing khalistani terrorists, \nIts Trudeau who is using these terrorists for vote bank politics

Smart guy that's a nice way of saying we don't want them to come in our country he knows the problematic and they want nothing to do with them this is politically correct

I personally find Canadians are very polite and kind, but very arrogant at the same time. It makes it very hard to be friend with people here.

very polite and professional response to a leading question that implies his country is not doing enough.

I hate to say this, but we have reverted and it’s not just a dark place to live. It’s a Third World country and only the privileged to benefit from it. I can see a Civil War starting soon with the politics with the corruption over water and gas we sell it to all other nations, barely, leaving nothing for ourselves. We pay top dollar for our own resources or others pay pennies, what is happening this is the steps of the superpowers you’ll see it it’s been prophesied

The intro to the video kind of portrayals your biased doesn't it? You introduced the elections and who one and the state of Canada now indicating your biased that all of our problems are takings to political reasons. People are easily swayed with words sometimes opinions should to given lightly with all factors and not just the ones the help your opinion seem correct. You should include historical events that started the housing crisis in Canada. Even your graph only showed a spike of immigration intake but only AFTER covid but you sway the conversation to think the intake was so different when even your graph shows it stayed the same till covid. Number of those facts would have been more convincing to strengthen your opinion. Numbers are nice but not when it's placed in again, places that help make your opinion correct. In that case, only one side of the story and most facts are hidden this way. I enjoy the pictures though, nice editing. Lots of videos makes it more engaging and not lose people's interest

I moved from Hong Kong to Canada and I had to make this tough decision of political environment (increased CCP involvement) vs. higher cost of living in Vancouver, and after weighing up the options I chose the latter with Vancouver having the slight edge. The mountains and nature we have here are what keep motivating me.

No official has any right to behave in such a manner to customers no matter the reason. They are supposed to be courteous and polite at all times. The officer should be sacked. No excuses.

And you have also allowef extremists to take a root in your politics.

Political double talk. Basically, he's saying HELL NO we don't want terrorists ruining our country too. He an extremely wealthy Muslim who washes his hands of the whole situation.

When we think of Swedish women our brains picture blond blue eyed women in braids yodeling on a snowy mountain top Canadians well according to the politician jagmeet singh you aren't allowed to have a stereotypical identify as he mentioned in parliament when he and his wife were out strolling in a northern Ontario town when a local storefront owner asked politely where they were from and according to him he was deeply offended I'm from Canada was his retort wow we Canadians dare to ask a turban and sari wearing brown couple were they are from dah of course they're Canadians because apparently Canadians aren't allowed to have a distinct stereotype after giving away their country long ago so maybe asking people what country they have loyalty to as in whose side would they fight on if we ever went to war against their ancestral countries but why bother the answers are well known

Polite way of saying.... we don't want them!!.

So folks , let me make it simple for you, so you understand. We are all victim of the reach assholes who don’t want to see homes being made , so they can charge whatever and push 5 people in one bedroom to max their profit , then we are the victim of asshole politicians who only think about riches and more money in their pockets who don’t care to fool you to cast your vote , and then and the most importantly , we are the victim of a political social system who refused to change and a country that is absolutely lawless..No laws for renting , no Standards or Standard amount of money some reach asshole landlord can charge , and clueless Governess who think it’s a great idea to bring millions of immigrants each year , and to be honest we deserve this , for a shit hockey game people riot , but when no one can afford to eat or have a place to sleep , not a single soul walks into the streets to protest

..Black September when Bedouins forces loyal to king Hussein slaughtered 160’000 Palestinians--Jordania had annexed the 80% of Palestine and went to war against PLO and Syria..the killing of Palestinian refugees was seen as a brotherly misunderstanding by most ARAB STATES--20 MILLION MUSLIMS or ARABS KILLED BY MUSLIM or ARABS SINCE 1945--BROTHERLY MISUNDERSTANDINGS-? \n \n•\tIn the Middle East, 1.4 million Arabs experience true freedom. They live in Israel. They are citizens of the Jewish state and enjoy same legal and political rights as the rest. \n300 million Arabs do not experience true freedom. They live outside the tiny strip of Israel under a misogynistic yokes posing as sovereignty and independence. The contrast between the Arabs in Israel and counterparts outside the strip are becoming distinct.

Canadian politics boring? Lol go to Mexico & watch those Canadian MF companies fracking, mining/exploiting all the land, & displacing poor people to get all its resources. \n\nRight about L.A., it was super weird to walk there and seeing that blocks and blocks and blocks.

Soon you see Indian in politics, haha. Look at Britain. Democracy , Democracy.

This is why people hate politics, hate politicians, distrust the government, feel hopeless to ever own a home like one they probably grew up in that was 10 to 20x less expensive than prices they are facing. The home I am sitting in cost $120K when it was built in 1977, now it recently sold for $1.2 million, a 10X increase in price, up from $400k just 10 years ago. So now to own a normal middle class home in suburbia near Seattle, you have to make $250,000 per year in income, so the American Dream and American Middle Class are vanishing ideas.

Canada hid its inflation in the housing market for a decade. The economy appeared to be growing, and real wages appeared to be staying in line with the consumer price index, but it was smoke and mirrors. If you removed real estate, GDP was stagnant. Wages were actually falling behind and people getting poorer and poorer without realising it. That’s finally become unsustainable, and inflation is showing up everywhere. And the wages are still stuck. The country is sitting on hugely valuable resources it could develop had it not put so many self-created political barriers in the way, and having indoctrinated their population about it along the way. Separately, The healthcare system is getting worse, consistently ranking 2nd last in the OECD in terms of real results delivered. The biggest problem is that the country’s economy is built on immigration to drive growth, rather than productivity, efficiency, or innovation. The more people you bring in, the more housing you need, but they’re at the point that they can’t keep up and people can hardly afford housing anyways. It’s a recipe for disaster. I left Canada by coincidence, having met someone from another country and moved there. I’m glad I left.

These same people if they travel in international flights they are quite and polite…they are in, “sorry,thats fine,its ok,no problem” mode…but in domestic flights their ego takes a rocket and fly high…very unfortunate.

Brampton Ontario is business India. Surrey British Columbia is political India.

The government system is no longer suitable for the country and its people, worst the ruling class is following the neocolonial western politics.

So Canada is identical to USA now just colder and more polite.

Polite way of saying he doesn’t give a f about them haha they on their own in his eyes

Canada needs to put a cap by nationality otherwise Canada will be filled with spy for India and China. Don’t blame china and India for political interference.

Now look around the rest of the world. I imagine you'll see the same major event occurring. must be the PM. Hot potato politics. You think Populist Pete will sweep it all away?
