Higher status to be in a potato sack what a joke.

Woman has higher status in muslim religion...this is the joke of the century!!!! Lol

Pests like him are using our law against us. Out in 2 years? AYKDM? Talking about low cost of committing crimes in this country! A joke to someone like him.

As a Canadian living in Asia. Our biggest crisis is that we are universally identified as being weak. There is little deterrent for criminals to try something brazen. We need strong and fast law enforcement and unflinching penalties. A 7 year sentence with 2 years until release is a worldwide joke, and partial cause this activity occurs openly in Canada.

our country is an international joke. we let this happen, let them launder billions a year in casinos, and use our own banks to make our housing markets unaffordable. I don't even blame the Chinese, they are playing the game handed to them on a silver platter by our corrupt politicians and naïve voters

Lol, this scammer only get a few years and $900,000 fine. What a joke. He made over millions. I’d strip his citizenship and deport back to where he is from. Shame on immigration as well, letting these crooks in the first place.

Our government is a joke.

50000!! a year, people with one child get 1000 a month, and do they get Child tax? I just dont understand how Canada/ America can just keep bringing allowing so many people can keep coming?? Or wont we just be a place just like the places they are trying to leave?? Also a payment to set up your house??? LOL. I knew a single Mom who left an abusive relationship.. ( born in Canada) and you know what the government in BC gave her to help her set up her house?!! A used bed!!!Thats all,, oh and a crisis grant for $40! If she needed more than the 1000$ pre month! This is a complete joke! We need to look after Canadians first, or we wont have healthcare and become a 3rd world country too!!

Dude made up to 10 million, probably more. He only had to pay 900,000 as a penalty and only did 2 years in jail. Well worth it in my opinion. Canadian justice system is a joke. Ironic thing is the fact that Muslims are illegally flooding across the border now and elaborate scams such as this aren't even needed.

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.

Canada’s legal system is a big JOKE!

So he made 10 million dollars by bilking people but in the end only paid a 950 000 dollar fine and was supposed to spend 7 years in jail, but after 2 years was released? The Canadian justice system is a joke. No wonder these people run such rings, in the end they only get a slap on the wrist....disgusting.

2 years is a joke and anybody can do that and still be a millionaire after.

Criminals get away with a joke of a sentence and away time. No surprise so much fraud comes though this country. No balls by any authority including government. Complete joke.

The matter of the fact is that Canada is become a joke in the worldwide world. If you see all the scandals of of people scamming in all different ways [birth citizenships, mules bringing aliens, criminals fleeing via their consulate etc & etc] This guy got 2 years but he has 10 millions maybe hidden in the Bahamas, so was it worth it??

Waiting for jokes about Wangs and Wengs

I've been hearing about immigration fraud in Canada for decades. It's very common knowledge around the world that Canada has the easiest path to fraudulent citizenship anywhere in the western world. Makes me sick when I hear people talk about it like it's a joke. But that's exactly what it is.

For those who don’t know what’s going on in Canada, let me fill you in. Canada has a way bigger problem the the US does at the southern boarder. There are 100’s of thousands flowing into Canada every year. True Canadians are definitely the minority. Jobs for your kids and grand kids will few and far between, not to mention the victims who will suffer from crimes from gangs fronted by illiagals , and Canada’s immagration laws are a joke. Come one come all to Canada. Anybody can get in one way or an other.

What a joke of a system !! This documentary is actually an inspiration for many to get into white collar crime and be a fraudster !!

It took long enough for them to figure out what many of us have known for years Thanks again 5th Estate for airing this story. Gee, I wonder if immigration did their job they would find other than Chinese used this scam. What a joke our immigration is!

7 years is not enough,is this a joke?stripped these people of there citizenship and deport them. Then ban for life in Canada.

Well that just makes me mad. He should have all his money seized to show Canada is serious on this type of fraud. He basically only lost 9% of what we know defrauded the system. He still gets to live in Canada and only did two years in jail - what a joke. Now we got traitors like Hussein and Trudeau who want more immigrants while this show just said they don’t have enough resources to process all the fraud. Absolute garbage!

Canada is a running joke under troudeau.

The punishments for immigration fraud are pathetic. Sunny Wang should've served the full sentence. This is a bloody joke.

It’s not only ghost immigrants. There are ghost employment too. A lot of people, mainly those rich international students who do not want to go back to China after graduation or failed to graduate but would remain in Canada without permanent residents status. They would pay some corrupted companies to hire them (what a joke), pretending that they have a full-time job in order to apply for permanent residency in Canada. All paycheque, T4, And whatsoever are genuinely fake... ?

Canada is a joke, our entire system was built with loads of loop holes in almost everything. and when someone is caught the courts just give the person a slap on the wrist. Just look at the migrant truck driver who killed 16 ppl in Saskatchewan! He killed so many and he is blaming Canada and only getting barely 3 yrs sentence and on good behavior much less than that.

Canadian law is a joke

Canada,with our softness and above reality political correctness is it's own worst enemy.! \nIn China it's a way of life corruptions,,Chinese business men makes every months dinner reunions to discuss and celebrate how they've scammed western countries companies,this is not a joke..\nOur gentleness is not in tune with how the rest of the peoples of this planet are behaving.!\nI aint no racist,but i do have a little critical thinking,lately Canada is not acting in it's best future interest allowing anyone's to cross our border and being welcoming to peoples with invaders mentality and beliefs... \nWe even tolerate the Ontario islamic party that vow the destruction of our culture and our way of life...\nGo read their agenda,,any Canadian in for sharia.???\nIt's time to wake up before it's to late like in Europe.!

Maybe Canada immigration should hire more people who can get the job done, obviously there is a lot of work to be done. Why just go after the big fish, go after all of those who commit fraud. The Chinese know it’s a joke to deal with Canada immigration.

Muslims gives women higher status or what?? Was that a joke !

UK police are a fuckin joke for even allowing these zones to pop up. They're off chasing people for not having a tv license while rape/stabbing/acid attack crimes continue to skyrocket. All the while they turn a blind eye and block anyone on twitter that brings it up with hard data to back it. All in the name of being tolerant to an ideology that wants them fucking dead.

Stupid sell outs\nInsulting your mother india saying you'd never go back\nAll we do is moan about india about the infrastructure, about the government. But we do nothing just escape abroad not our problem we say\n30 years ago india was on par with China. Bad governance and all our people going abroad has led to us being stuck in 1980 whilst china powered ahead and rules the world in most sectors \nThese idiot singh in Canada are the ones who say they'll never go to india but demand khalistan dopey cunts had a sikh pm for years what did he do for them\nAs for Canada what a joke country forever in Americas shadow. Gaylord pm and puts a indian in charge of defence. Not that their military has ever done anything\nJust to get the sikh votes \nNo asian should hold such a position in any other country look at our London mayor only there due to the left wing ideals of the labour party. Not their on merit nor is our home sec\n\nPay your taxes work hard for your own country\nIndia is the best\nModi is the best

Lol,that’s a nice joke thier is no one in Brampton EXCEPT Indians I was living there BUT I AM REALLY HAPPY I LEFT!

Vice am i suppose to feel bad for this guy?? Breaking laws and fleeing hearings in order to delay the process?? His kids crying is his own fault because he makes bad decisions and expects handouts just because he asks for it. 15 years in the United States and you dont speak any english?? Liberal media is a damn joke

this is a joke

What a joke City news..read the Koran and Hadiths , then go to a muslim majority country and just try living the Canadian lifestyle there. No really ...try it, we will courteously attend your funeral for trying. ISLAM is a dominate then subjugate ideology that uses taqiyya(lies to the non believer)to further the cause of Islam. Muslim women are put in the forefront and will lie non stop to gain favor. CityNews, this report was a heresy at best.

how much taxes do they pay? I was in California and they don't have to get a license but they drive cars with no plates on them. In taxachusetts i know a guy who got in an accident with a truck that was driven by an illegal...he did not have a license and they let him go...the company that owned the truck paid. They get more benefits than us and they pay no taxes. I was unemployed once and had no health care. every place I applied refused me health care so at the end of the year I had to pay a penalty for each month I didn't have health care. What penalty do they pay? I am discriminated against for being a poor white american citizen. This country is a joke and I wish I was never born here.

Fuk islam if you want islam so bad why not go bak to middle east oh wait you been fuking it up since we americans came there before what a joke

So if he has been told that he is being deported, so he moves his family to Vancouver to hide them. This brings his case to the bottom of the line. He stayed in Edmonton & continues to work there underground not paying any taxes, while his family takes advantage of Canadian benefits hospitals, schools & welfare. What a joke round them up & get them out of here as quick as you can. We don't need the cheats.

Canada is a joke, they went in the same train as Sweeden, I BET the working class is loving their taxes are going to the terrorists and human traficking business, so they can live luxuous lifes while canadians work their ass out xD

*STOP PUTTING THIS GUY ON TO SPEAK FOR US, HE IS AN ABSOLUTE JOKE AND LIBERAL SHILL!!!* \n\nHE HAS TO STOP STOP SAYING WE HAVE A LOT OF ROOM UP HERE, HAS THIS IDIOT EVER LOOKED AT A MAP?!! LOOK WHERE WE LIVE - *A THIN LINE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE COUNTRY* WHERE 35 MILLION CANADIANS ARE HAVING TROUBLE KEEPING UP WITH HOUSING LET ALONE *AFFORDABLE HOUSING*\n\nIF THESE PPL WANT TO LIVE IN TENTS IN THE NORTH, FLY AT IT, BUT THE REASON TRUDEAUS FIRST LIE QHEN HE TOOK OFFICE, KNOWN AS THE *REFUGEE RUSH* WHERE HE USED LIES AND PROPAGANDA TO CONVINCE US TO RESCUE 35.000 SYRIANS FROM HORRIFIC REFUGEE CAMPS.... THAT LATER TURNED OUT TO BE AN *ABSOLUTE LIE* . THESE PEOPLE HAD ALREADY BEEN RESETTLED IN SAFE COUNTRIES FOR YEARS AND HAD JOBS, KIDS IN SCHOOL, AMONG THEIR OWN LANGUAGE AND RELIGION. \nThat was the 1st lie of 3 YEARS OF LIES, EMBARRASSMENT AND DESTRUCTION OF THIS COUNTRY BY A RADICAL ELITIST LEFTIST ISLAMIST APOLOGIST COMMUNISM PUSHING DICTATOR. IMAGINE FORCING ISIS INTO COMMUNITIES WHILE QITH THE OTHER HAND THROWING TAX DOLLARS TO PAY YHR MILITARY TO RISK THEIR LIVES AND FIGHT THEM IN OTHER COUNTRIES - WHO EXACTLY IS THE ENEMY? CANADIANS? AMERICA? \n\nNOW WE LEARN FROM LEAKED BORDER SERVICES DOCUMENTS THAT HES BARELY VETTED ANY!!! AFTER TELLING US THE STRICT VETTING IS WHY WE DONT HAVE TO WORRY??!!!\n\nWHY IS HE STACKING THEM UP AND SUPPORTING THEM IN MY COUNTRY?? \n\nTHIA IS JUST THE BEGINNING OF THE DAMAGE THIS DICTATORSHIP IS DOING . \n*AMERICANS , DONT BELIEVE FOR ONE SECOND BELIEVE CANADIANS ARE BEHIND HIM, LIKE YOUR DEMOCRAT PARTY, MAINSTEAM MEDIA AND CLINTON SYCOPHANTS ... ITS ALL LIES*

I hate the PM we have. Thanks to him we are a joke of the world. We Canadians do not stand with him. He is alone.

As a Canadian i do hope the best for everyone but the fact that our government is just allowing anyone who dam well feels like it to cross into our country is just sick and most of the people are destroying motels racking up bills and its Canadian tax payers that must flip the bill none of us should be happy about that i so hate Justin Trudeau for turning Canada into a joke he should be fixing this country and stop helping the rest of the world he has no god dam right doing all that he did.

I am not even joking. I would love to run for pm because i feel 1000% more qualified than this guy. I just want to replace him. His dad came into power, dollar was even with the states. When he left it was 70 cents. This is his son people. This is our old pm's son mr dressup trying to make the canadian dollar worth even less imo.

trump is a real smart precise man who does what leader should do. Care for people who elected. this ridiculous justin cares about being one big joke no one cares about
