I can fully relate and agree with everything you said and more not said. I never thought I would hate being Canadian or my home country but Justin pushed me past the line. And I even premoted that elitest spolied ahole in the first elections. Now I want him well it starts with D. \n\nI live between Winnipeg my home town and Montreal over the last 20 years. And I like and hate both cities at times but realize neither are lovable. \n\nMontreal is grey 80% of the timeand the people are so rude and hurtful. I hate the french just absolutly hate them. Not becasue of the langauge, but how they are so gross in every standard of life. They speak a way that is offensive and rude. They hate all outsiders and want to live in a closed embreed society.\n\nI couldn't imagine how nice this city could be if they would drop the bs discrimination of the nonsense language laws. It is systimatic discrimination. \n\nWinnipeg is green and sunny in summer but winter is very very harsh as Canadian all know. Winnipeg has friendly people, but also some very violant people to the point I get into fights and or breakup fights and had to open carry a knife, and do wing chun. It is just harsh all around. \n\nThen I look into Toronto, and well that is even more expensive then anywhere else. \n\nAs I say I agree with all your points and maybe Portigal or Spain are intersting. Maybe after this was in Ukraine I will go there to make money, and move to a nice affordable place where I can keep working and enjoy the changes it offers me.

Seems fine to me. People need to look in the mirror and their spending habits. People focus on WANTS and forget about NEEDS, and many spend beyond their means... which should include what if situations. Those of us who spend with that in mind still have fun but when things hit the fan, we're not impacted as much. You don't have to be rich to make wise financial decisions, including where you live. But it's easier for some to point the finger at government, companies, certain segments of the population, etc. versus looking in the mirror first.

So grateful to see all the comments. I'm moving to Canada soon and the comments from locals helped me understand the ground reality.\nI have questions about small business/ start ups, can any of you fine people help me with these? \n1. What are the major challenges of starting a small business/startups? \n2. Is expensive mobile data a major hindrance to the growth of apps which provide services? \n3. Red flags/negatives of starting a small business. Taxes, govt procedures, ease of doing business, etc.\n4. Is funding for a good app based business idea available easily? \n5. If I have an app based idea and the backend/IT operations run out of India what could be the issues I could face legally or taxwise? \n\nWill really appreciate guidance as I'm new to Canada and really looking for real business advice. Thanks much.

Some people keep talking about the good old days and looking in past with rosy glasses. Stop living in the past and feeling like a victim. If you feel like everything is broken and it’s all going down hill then start doing something about. \n\nWorst thing you can do is talk about a problem and not go and fix it.

I can't believe you came up with this comparison when Americans are in general much poorer than Canadians. And American cities are collapsing with people looking daily Stores and complaining about business overworking them for a mere survival pay.

Look out white people, a lot of people that ain't white are coming???????

I think it depends on what you really want from a country. If you exclude costs of living, Canada today looks like a nice place for retirement where people just want to live life quietly and do simple happy things in life. This makes it not as focus on development in my opinion. The cost of everything is going up because if I was a rich person, I would go to Canada too to live life. Not as stressful and the nature there is just amazing. BC weather is really nice.

Just look what this stupid administration has cos. Where r we going to put all these people?

If you wanna be successful, you most take responsibility for your emotions, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You must look outward if you wanna be successful in life.

The War on Drugs has been and continues to be the main cause of all this turmoil. Overflowing prisons, vulnerable people fleeing their countries for safety from a problem that America and it's constant craving for illicit drugs has created. And you want to blame them? Take a good look in the mirror America and you'll see the problem staring back at you!

Looks just like when white people first came here. Imagine stealing land from someone and then telling them they can't come back. Yahuah is going to have a FIELD DAY JUDGING THIS THIS OL' GODLESS COUNTRY!!! America is going to fall like none other because of the bloodshed, blasphemy, crimes against humanity, hypocrisy, and wrongdoings against Yahuah's people!

Countries in courage this so they can get employment in the US and send cash back to their families back home. That helps their economy and their government doesn't have to spend as much money to help their own people. So Americans are helping to take care of their citizens for them. That's why those countries in courage people to come and not try and stop them. Just look at all the check cashing businesses on every corner in some cities

Canada's government is a bunch of rich people who's only concern is to make themselves richer. Then lie about what they did so they can get voted back in so they can steal more from taxpayers. Then the next government is forced to cut everything from education, to medicine, look like huge Aholes, so then we vote the idiots back in again that keep stealing from us. Not allot of time for improvement with all that going on.

Shows that they have no real heart to flee they own country like that. It’s pathetic and we don’t need any more punks in America the alphabet people already got us looking weak!

In Canada everyone is greedy. Just go and rent commercial land for business then you will know how expensive is the rent. I am not talking about ghosts cities where only old people are living. To open a business you need thriving population which is in big cities. Just look in the morning after 5 a.m. all the major highways are full of vehicles going towards Toronto. Because all the big businesses are there as well as their head office.

I want to now go to Venezuela to see what is going on because people look terrified, and if it wasn’t for language barriers, we would be able to talk to them clearly and find out what’s going on with them look at their behavior ?no one willingly leaves their home and I feel that someone knows what’s happening there

Those are the people that makes immigration and immigrants look bad , first of all they want to move illegally and secondly they don’t want to speak English, I know for sure that this is done on purpose to take jobs away from blacks people ???️

These people are coming over looking for work while people here throw their lives away and ask for change on the street smh

Wow look at all those Indigenous people fighting back for their land. Taking it back from the real illegal immigrants.

All of them are strong young people that could have stay in their countries and work to change its political situation. or develop their nations. The hey are all looking for the easy way out of life. However, life is not easy in America without legal status. They should return to their country of origin, and change its situation

You just can’t push yourself into Mexico or any other country that these people are coming from. You will find your self in their prisons in a heart beat and those prisons are terrible places. There a right way to enter the USA and these people are trampling on our laws and customs by doing this. America has been very kind to them and look what happening. They seem to have no regard for our laws.

Why haven't we done anything yet on the right side has gone as far as burning down buildings and constantly charging a former president not giving up we just run to the comment section. This right here is in fucking invasion it does not matter who or what is trying to illegally get through our border it's just that part right there illegally get through our border that is invading Invasion why are we not at War right this second I am so freaking sorry I'm so sorry probably thousands of wonderful people in that group but we need to stop them that is an invasion I know it sounds horrible but just look up invasion you look up logs illegal and how it would wreck our country that would damage us that's what you do at War you try to damage the other country

Their country is messed up for a reason, and they are looking to bring all their problems here. Stay out of America, we already got enough problems with our own people.

and everybody hates the US but look at the amount of people rushing to get into the US. i wonder why ? ? you wont see that in china and the complete opposite when it comes to russia where people are rushing to get out of russia.?

That's looks Awful people's! But I got trained early, so I'm ready & if u get to me , u had better be ready too !

Being an Indian this neighborhood looks like some creepy lanes to me without a single life I will die of loneliness if I ever have to live in such countries. May such high class lifestyle is not for me I m very happy in India where you can see people everywhere ?

Don't want people here who think nothing of breaking the law. This is an illegal act.\nFix your country, stop looking for freebies.

Sorry stay in your country and fix it.\nI see people with decent clothes that look well fed.\nI've seen children in African countries that are emaciated.

PEOPLE... LIKE YOU AND ME... JUST LOOKING FOR A BETTER WAY OF LIVING!!! *SHAME... SHAME... SHAME!!! ?

Please, please, please don’t let them through. It’s not about race and racism. It’s about our country facing the saturation of homelessness, because of the saturation of drugs, lack of self respect, and respect for human life, plus insatiable greed. WE THE PEOPLE do not want their problems too.\n\nWe have to work on our country and its people first before we look elsewhere and before we can help others, we must help ourselves.

You might not like how things look, but letting people have a better life is the right thing to do. Just make it happen.

No we can tell you what happened with member that basketball that they nicely they did it was their marketing guy then the next thing they know they got hit over the floods hurricanes and earthquakes and stuff. Yeah see when you go around marking identity a god guess what you brought that on yourself period you getting high but statue of God looking over your whole country and then you sit up there and mark them send it you gonna start wishing it doesn't and this what God took his words very seriously period now wipe it to all those people they start pushing up now everybody want to start coming through. I have no issues with Venezuela. But at some point you have to be able to rise up and guess whatever tyranny your government is doing. But due to the United States and Venezuela have a history. And we have caused some some other time damages that's done in Venezuela. If you need to assist not take over where the people is more comfortable notice I said the people not the government cuz we shouldn't be taking over the government what happened to people people the people themselves can re-establish the government how they wanted to be what best fit them

Poor people they are desperate to leave their own countries. Poor children. I don’t look at this as aMeRIca gOt OUr oWn pRoBlems … These people are DYING to come here. Please Lord help us find a way to help them

Politics, they're being harassed into the U.S. by crime so it looks like they're flooding border of their own accord. Poor people God bless them. Last first, first ladt

When TRUMP was in office he was saying that WE NEEDED TO STOP TAKING PEOPLE IN, AND STOP HIRING PEOPLE THAT DIDN'T HAVE A GREEN CARD, BECAUSE WHEN THEY COME THE FIRST THING THEY DO IS GET ON WELFARE AND HOUSING, THEN ON SOCIAL SECURITY, BUT PEOPLE WASN'T LISTENING. NOW LOOK. TRUMP WAS FINING COUNTRY THAT SEND UNDOCUMENTED PEOPLE HERE AND FINING COMPANIES FOR HIRING THEM. TRUMP MADE A LOT OF SENSE BEHIND THE SCENES.

Most of this people and their leader claim America ?? is the devil America is a problem the world has, so why are you running to the devils house and why are you people trying to go live with the devil I’m confused can somebody explain onto most of this country is hold your leaders accountable and stop supporting the leader, finger-pointing to the United States and other European country has the problem nobody’s saying that all the countries are perfect or they haven’t done anything wrong, but if you continue to look outside and not hold each other accountable but then you try to run and go be with the same people you claim you claim are your problem

Look my parents are imigrants they pay taxes i say gun emm down entry by force is an act of war i love my people but none of these idiot even try to come in legaly they just complain that it takes to long

Who tells all this people to go to the Estates, it looks like human trafficking

UK having same problems but the illegals get housing,money benefits they have more rights than the British people look at all government housing in uk huge percentage of them are immigrants can't speak English abuse nhs send money out of UK so more can illegally enter country its a disgusting it cost 6 million pounds a day to house and care for these people and we don't even know who the hell they are what there back ground is, they are criminals by law it's in the name used for them ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS

This is pure lawlessness entering.\nYou might as well open the doors & cages of every zoo and let all the animals run freely throughout your city because this is no different. Do these people look like they're coming to follow any laws of any country? Then literally breaking the laws upon entering this way and they're coming with nothing to offer only their hands out to receive whatever they think that they're entitled to. What country do you know what allows is? And have the ability to take care of all of these damn people before they even take care of their own who are living in the streets? America will not be able to recover from the stupidity this current Administration

People knew what Biden supported and still voted for those policies. \nVoting has massive consequences. \nAll you gotta do is look in the mirror and you’ll see who is at fault.

All these immigrants dying to be proud patriotic Americans while ironically you got everyday Americans;\n\nhating to be here in the greatest country in the world but would rather be China or Canada\n\nsupporting TikTok communist company \n\nburning our flags\n\nBurning our cities down in the name of summerly love \n\ndenouncing their citizenships \n\ngiving away their rights to arms, freedom of speech and right to assembly \n\nDon’t want to work but crying for handouts \n\nArguing about what is a woman \n\n\nThese people looking to build families, work and start a life here supporting the American dream

I love my people but damn this is just wrong. America is a great place to be but please for the love of God stop this it’s so wrong and makes us look even worse. There are good people that want to come but with due process. There are already people here that need help first before we can help anyone else.

There are around 30 million undocumented immigrants in USA . There are 20 Million undocumented immigrants in India. Guess what, the illigal migrants to US and canada are at least polite people looking for better life. The illigals in Indja just want the demographic change

A man came to my job looking for work. Unfortunately we where not hiring. I asked him politely are you legal to work here because I know some people that are hiring. He says yes the government already gave me a medical card, cell phone and some $$. I've been here my entire life. I've had to work for everything I have ... Doesn't seem fair.

Look closer people…..

I mean this is sad and I feel for them, however most people in this case would blame Americans or American govt. we have a lot of our own problems as well. These people are going through something but why? But why are they even going through it in the first place. Foreign govts are fked and corrupt but you are still subject to laws of OUR govt no one likes it when people just run into your house without being invited regardless of the situation. This is not a good look for foreigners trying to come through at all even though their situation might be bad doesn’t automatically mean it’s our duty to take care of it

How are they all militant without any weapons in hand trying to cross the boarder ?Funny enough the people who stormed the capital in January weren’t Militant and they were ready to lynch people and carried all types of weapons. These people are desperately looking for better lives . The shouldn’t need to go in illegally but if there was transparent policy where they can go through proper process without being criminalized legally applying for asylum and locked in concentration camps waiting for verdict without right if speech or to get a lawyer a lot of people wouldn’t need to cross illegally. Not even speaking of the necropoltics in immigration laws and how the system plays on peoples emotions with these moral panics and media narratives. It’s really sad . They are better off going to Canada or Europe honestly . They might not be militants over there

Look at all those people that are government is going to give your money to and that’s the money you worked each hour for that they taxes you on at what point did the government contact you and ask if they. Oils take your money and give it away. We can’t just walk into a bank money without going to jail just sayin theft is theft.

There just looking for a better life completely understandable wouldn't you fight for your life for a better future and if they try to do it the right way they have to wait 3 plus years that's the real underlying issue not the people looking for a better resolution than there in ....
