I spent more than 10 year to get my paper with two master degree and high position in the tech company while paying ridicules amount of taxes. Why are these people feel entitled to get here illegally and how come our government is turning a blind eye. And they wonder why people will vote for trump.

Why did I have to wait for 4 years for my legal immigration process to come to Canada? And what do I pay around one hundred thousand dollars a year in taxes to this government when they do nothing to protect the Canadian borders?

My journey to permanent citizenship took 5 long hard years of hard work, impeccable record of residency with no issues with any law or law enforcement, slogged through employment at the company who sponsored (much lesser pay). Citizenship took another 5 years of impeccable record. \nPaid taxes since day 1 to Uncle Sam.\n\nOne more thing … People born here have no housing, food or they live in projects.\n\nNow these people walk over the border in Mass and will get free everything. TX is getting inundated with illegal immigrants by the hoards. Shame on Dems for letting this get worse like this.

Joe Biden and the Democrats once a reason this is happening who is going to pay for these people why taxes are high enough I can't afford to keep giving more and more taxes so I can feed and house f****** illegal immigrants better in my country illegally

I’m not trying to be disrespectful to anyone who comes to Canada but if you’re coming here legally, you should be arrested and charged but I also got a question. How are you going to take care of yourself food here is expensive rent is expensive utility bills expensive everything here is expensive, so how are you going to support yourself if you’re coming here with no money no resources it doesn’t make sense to me where the rest of us Canadians who live here are already struggling with high taxes. The high cost of living here is not any better than the USA so what are governments going to hand out free money to you every month give them a hotel to stay in give them free food is the taxpayer is it gonna end up paying for all of this? I’m just asking because I’m curious. .

The lady was crying,not because she can't get a benz or Gucci bag but she wants a better life. We should be allowing them in with 7 years no crime condition and to pay the processing fees instead of our taxes but after are American citizens. Don't worry more cone in means more hospitals schools stores so they won't steal our jobs.

Disgusting!! Globalization and brain drain at its finest. These people have no right to be demanding entry. The US and Canada need to start setting a better example, it’s blowing up in their faces and us tax paying citizens are paying the price!

Joe Biden is goin to ruin America and we will have to pay for all of these people to live thru taxes and funneling money thru handout government programs that they will never get off of.

Tax payers are tired of paying for people illegally entering the USA.

Report and deport . Get work visas do it correctly and you cannot have kids be born in u\nS soil. Why do we have to work to pay taxes so they can come and have free medical? My parents are immigrants but never took a penny or got any help help because my parents weren't from here. Upon my parents becoming us citizens they never asked or got any help and not that they couldn't use it cause we grew up poor but in my dad's words that's for poor people that need it.

We’re taxed to death in Canada, the US doesn’t pay so much tax. Lots of doctors come here and doing taxi jobs they have to redo it.

Because they know even if they cross illegally they will find jobs in the construction industry.. the companies of America hire them and then pay them low wages which works out for the companies because paying with cash or 1099 tax form they are not obligated to taxes, retirements, 401k, no insurance. A few years back a company was hired to remove tree limbs from power lines so they went to central America and brought back workers for the labor. It went live on the news and was asked why wasn't Americans offered the opportunity to get a job doing the work.. as soon as the news report came out it was just as quickly removed from the airways. How do you think the rich get richer cheap labor brings higher profits

Don’t let any of them in. My family had to come to America the right way. Not as illegal immigrants. They don’t have the right to come here and use up tax payer money, they are not tax paying citizens. They should all be sent back

YOU ARE NOT WELCOME. Hard working Americans are hungry and losing their homes. We are the tax prayers who are burdened with holding this country together and we are the ones being buried alive under inflation and lack of pay raises. We can not be daddy to the world. If the elites and uppity city types are so concerned about these people let them foot the bill and find these people legal work. They lower construction quality, pricing, and are destroying industries that the people at cnn couldn't care less about

Nothing but an invasion. Mexico used to stop them in the southern border w Guatemala but Biden’s Admin changed that, now Americans are seeing what they didn’t see b4. And there are a lot more coming… most of these people were relying on social services in their native countries, so guess where they going once they cross the border? We US Citizens will have to pay way more taxes to support them.

Canadian here, and this video is right on the money for some of the most frustrating things about Canada! \n\nOur proudest achievement is our healthcare system, but up until recently, the government has been choking it little by little. Making it so difficult for any Doctor/Nurse to even consider finding work here (and making it impossible to afford getting a medical degree) because you are literally doing it for the love of the game at this point. \n\nEven if you become a specialist in a specific field (which pays really well compared to most careers here) it is unlikely any hospital will hire you. Our hospitals are only interested in making profits by pushing painkillers on Canadians, rather than hiring medical professionals to help fix them. If you become a family Doctor, it is a bit better, because you can open your own practice. But kiss your social life goodbye if you do! The most annoying part of this problem is some people blame all this on the fact that we have healthcare and assume a private American system would be better. Where the real problem is we need more workers and funding into our healthcare to make it better. Not making lives harder for poorer Canadians!\n\nWeirdly enough our Tax system issue didn't stand out as a problem to me until I left Canada and see how taxes are marked elsewhere! It blew my mind that I didn't have to do math when I visited another country and the way we advertise wages is purposely deceptive! In Ontario, we succeeded in getting a $14 hour minimum wage (only in Ontario and maybe one other province). Which sounded amazing until you realize that's $14 without tax... To compare, I was incredibly lucky in Toronto where I found a place for 750 a month and was earning $16 an hour. Sounded like more than enough for the cost of living, but after taxes I was pretty much putting more than half my monthly income in rent. On top of that I had to pay for student loans and other bills. \n\nBottom line, if you are wanting to move to Canada for our beautifully scenic environments, free healthcare, and a stable job? \n\nMove to Finland.

Yes and if these people truly believed in God and Jesus they wouldn't run from their countries but actually stay on the ground and stand strong in their faith that God and Jesus are going to help them persevere through all this. As a fully disabled American citizen with a child that doesn't even get $1,000 a month and there's no available housing at all where I live no waiting list to go on people on SSI disability don't get any extra housing help we're not offered separate housing are put on separate lists and low-income Able Body people or the migrants jumping the Border but I was born and raised here paid taxes and worked until my body literally couldn't anymore but I don't hear anybody bitching and screaming and crying about the fact that my son and I would be on the streets if it hadn't been for one of my family members stepping up and giving his housing after a lifetime restraining order issued during my pregnancy on my son's biological do do with domestic abuse situation. I'm also US citizen that spent time in the Wards in Houston and projects and other cities and if you don't think that we don't have the same gun violence drug trafficking human trafficking gangs take it over cartels taking over neighborhoods and communities than you're freaking lying to yourself and everybody else. The same s*** that's taken over these countries is taking over the inner cities have been for decades and these are the same communities that most of these people will end up in. No it's not about not being good Christians part of being a good Christian is reminding people to stand their ground and have faith in Jesus and God and their own home territory and not to give it up to the crime people in the bad politicians. You can't say you believe in God and Jesus Christ and then he's got your back while you're running and that's the truth in the reality that nobody wants to hear the more people run from these countries the more the bad people are able to take over and then we get complaints here in the states about the cost attacks is rightfully so. For those people screaming and shouting that everybody should go out pick up in my grant and bring them home to their house and feed them and take them and I challenge you to do the same thing for homeless before you even do the migrant do homeless American citizens go out and really educate yourself because I'm totally tired of hearing from Americans that the only people that live on the streets are people with mental health problems that need mental health treatment or people that are stoned out and that's where they want to be you guys are so f****** wrong and this is coming from someone that met homeless people spent time around homeless people and understand we have a society that wants to paints a very different picture than what's truly going on because then it allows for hey it's not our problem they want to be there. I will say there's two I'm sure a lot of people are attracted to come into the United States I mean it's kind of turned into the Devil's Playground don't you think I mean look at how ostentatiously people live the projects on the backs of taxpayers selling dope holding down dead-end jobs to make it look like they're working all while going out and getting their hair did and their nails done and their eyelashes done and pimping out their cars and all that b******* and buying all this you know high-end tennis shoes and f****** clothing and Handbags and s*** and then we have the part of the United States that justified of themselves all the time or it's okay to have this huge palatial house or have multiple houses I'll we have United States veterans living on the streets or people that truly have disabilities that have been a waiting list for 2 and 3 years for housing. I remind people all the time and they hate hearing this s*** Jesus never had a house as a matter of fact Jesus basically live like a homeless person after he was an adult particularly and God made sure he was provided for. I mean did you all forget the night they came to take them away they were asleep in an Open Garden it wasn't like they popped up tents or glamper camper sites had some little Adobe type cabins they were sleeping in. As a matter of fact if you pay attention to most of the stories about Jesus and talking about him sleeping he does a lot of sleeping Outdoors. Remember God is a father that's how he's been represented and talked about in the Bible and Jesus was a man without a doubt no biological transgender question ability there. People need to remember that part of being a fair and loving. Is also teaching and discipline and these children following rules. I don't believe hearing God and Jesus telling all these people run from your countries and not have faith that I'm actually going to fix things for you and go run to somebody else actually go run to the United States where all those stuff is traveling through. I never understood the logic of that it's like rats run from the country where they're making the drugs to the country that supplying the globe with it and we're all of these bad people have thousands of people in planted everywhere with guns and hookups. I don't know why people don't understand that we have dirty lawn forcement in dirty politicians that are in bed with the dirty drug cartels that's as much as they are in the country. You don't think that there's not decisions made in the United States based on drugs and I'm not talking about how to put it into them but how to keep them flowing. I have Fred still in Florida and we were all making jokes about how quickly Sanibel Island all the way up to st. Pete got Mainland access so quickly after the last major hurricane that took everything down and we all know what it's from is because that portion of Florida is used to bring a lot of drugs in from South America, Central America. So for all of you that want to post your personal assumptions about homeless people because that's all it is unless you've actually been homeless or spent time around homeless you really have no clue what's going on in the homeless population except what you've been told by the same political talking head media bulshit that's been lying to everybody about a bunch of other stuff too. Don't you get it the politicians don't want people knowing that a lot of the people that are homeless on the street are people that are disabled and aren't disabled because they have mental health problems I know that's the narrative they've been trying to stuff down people's throats.

send them over to bidens and harris home, they invited them let them take care of them. Americans already pay enough taxes. we cant afford to support more people, biden and harris are rich, they have millions and billions.

Too many jobs unfulfilled as it is. I say let them work and FORCE them to pay taxes.

Maybe the immigrants can come pay taxes and Americans can live tax free in government paid homes

What I don't understand is how people from another country feel the us owes them entry and support. Why do we pay taxes? Why do we pay for our shelter our food our power our water but these people can just push their way into the US what about citizens that are homeless that are veterans that are elderly ? F Joe Biden Mayorkas needs to be fired

Shown how to illegally get in by the UN and Trudeau paying for them with our tax dollars!

I feel bad but I don't want that many people coming in. So my government can tax me to pay for all of them no thank you

Then they come over and the kids go to a well funded public school while paying very little tax. They then do not even take advantage of the oppurtunity and skip class, hang out in the bathroom vaping, and be racist to other non hispanic kids. How do i know? Because thats what happened at my school. They are extremely racist!!! They huddle up in their hispanic “bad boy” group and block the stalls and when i asked them to move and they said they fucking hate white people and called me a white bitch.

I am not paying income tax until Congress deports every last illegal alien in a mass hunt!

When you come into a country you are literally expecting money, housing and everything.\nIf they are allowed they should be made to build their own house and do community service until they find a job and pay taxes and let's see how many come then?

And my life turned upside down this Friday by illegal immigrants here in Louisiana. They ran a red light, smash my car, totaled it. While running from border patrol and customs. I counted eight people running out of the vehicle and not one gave two shits to check on me, even though I was injured. Seven of them got away the only one they caught was a 14 year old Honduran child that claimed amnesty. So vehicle which they stole, which had stolen license plate, and apparently was full of stolen tools all was seized. The owners will be lucky if they get anything back since it is being held as evidence. I was told by My Attorney chances are my insurance will not pay me in full for my vehicle. Also, I only have a few payments on my car left, and I’m forced to pay it even though now I have no vehicle to get to work, because all my equity is tied up in it, funny thing is I recognize this kid from one of the jobsites down the street. They literally beat me in a bid on. Mind you only buy $400 differences I’m having to pay taxes it’s a joke when you say these people take jobs and no one else wants thing is it’s not jobs no one else wants it’s jobs that have become jobs. No one wants because of the pay continues to fall prices continue to increase, everyone thinks he’s illegal immigrants make no money on these jobsites most of them have nicer vehicles and live in nicer places than the guys I know. The Democrats who are used to vote for because I thought they were for the workingman have completely switched. Their allegiance is to the large corporations that just want to drive down competition and raise their profit margins. They don’t care about America. They want a global economic system in which we have to compete with people that are willing to do the same work as us for a little less because they don’t have to pay what we have to pay and they go back to their countries and live like kings where our dollar buys a lot. They literally use their influence and corruption to take down Trump‘s administration because he was actually doing something about America’s problems. What a damn shame it’s time to change the system. If you’re not voting for a Bernie Sanders or Trump you might as well not voted off because you will get no change. Frankly, I think Bernie Sanders is a terrible choice, but it beats Joe Biden, because at least Bernie Sanders does care. Trump 4 more years!!!!

To think, in that crowd are unregistered violent people, sex offenders, gangsters, poor people who are incapable of following courteous laws and regulations, and foreigners who refuse to learn our ways, language, and customs to help give back to our communities. They come here, use housing and food aid at tax payers expense, work under-the-table jobs and don’t pay taxes, and they save up and send all of their earnings back to their country which adds to THEIR economy. Um, NO.\n\nThe sad part is, in that crowd are also good, creative, humble and kind people who seek a better future. Those should register and come in the RIGHT way. They NEED to register. \n\nSadly, you can’t tell the bad people from the good people. And that is a problem we can’t risk taking.

I'm gonna be honest, if your first point is that we pay too much in taxes, then I'm not going to watch the rest of the video. We pay taxes so that everybody can have a good life, regardless of their income. If you want to argue the exact percentage amount we should be paying, fine. But it's not different in any first world country EXCEPT the United States, and we can see how well that's going for them.

It is not fair for those people who enter here legally and work hard to pay all expenses coming here in Canada . It is not safe for Canadians to accept and accept people from other countries and when they come here it is for free!!! That is ridiculous. Canadians work hard and pay our taxes while other gain from the government

People don't understand that it's illegal! Also as a Canadian Tax Payer, why do I have to take the burden of paying for these freeloaders? Canada has their own homelessness and our citizens to deal with! Also it isn't fair to a person who is trying to come to Canada legally! I am not a fan of Pretty Boy Justin but this was the smartest decision he made!

Means we have to pay more taxes for them so they can come and put their country flag on the cars and in the garage or on the house while milking the system playing innocent

They are all coming to collect those freebies! Make sure to pay your taxes this April!

Why is our military not defending our southern border with force? Why are our tax dollars paying for weapons and personnel on a Ukrainian border when we need it here?

So now all our taxpayer money will be going to people who came illegally? It's already bad enough Trudeau gives all our money to other countries and everyone he brought over from Siria and Ukraine but our own citizens get nothing and pay taxes to feed and home these people. Yes it may be bad in their countries but why do we need to pay for them and suffer???

THIS IS UNFAIR TO BRING UKRAINIANS REFUGEES IN ONLY FEWS WEEKS WHEN IT TAKE MORE THAN 2 YEARS TO BRING CANADIANS CHILDREN BORN OUTSIDE OF CANADA OR CANADIANS FAMILIES REUNIFICATION APPLICATIONS OR PERMANENT RESIDENT FAMILIES REUNIFICATION APPLICATIONS IT TAKE 2 YEARS OR MORE THAN 2 YEARS TO BE COMPLETED ,THIS IS BIAS PURE DISCRIMINATION ,PREMIER FORD SAYS THAT HE WILL ACCEPT UNLIMITTED UKRAINIANS REFUGEES WHILE CANADIANS CITIZENS OR CANADIANS PERMANENT RESIDENTS CANNOT BRING THEIR CHILDREN BORN OUTSIDE OF CANADA ,CANADIANS OR PERMANENT RESIDENT WAKE UP AT 5:00 Am TO GO TO WORK EVERYDAY AND PAYS TAXES EACH YEAR

I left the US for good and went back to my country Taiwan. Too many illegals and Mondays. Too many shootings too. The pay looks good on paper but after tax it was horrible.

Welcome to Canada every single one of them we hope you like it here although it is very certainly going to be much colder then what you are probably used to. Regardless we are excited to welcome all of these new Canadians as long as they are willing to be Canadians and pay taxes and contribute to society through work doesn't matter where you're born you are welcome here

It's legal earn money from YouTube an international student please bro make a video how to manage it and YouTube income tax pay

Hands down, guess who’s ready to work non stop and pay into our taxes?\n\nI’m talking scrubbing toilets, wiping butts, picking fields etc.,,\n\nMet a lot of homeowners that grinded non stop since getting here in the states. Immigrants

Such a shitty border control, imagin this is your home and zombies wanting to invade, cause these people are not wanting to be in the us Because they love America they love that America give free money. I am from Iraq and was there from the beginning, it took my family 5 years of documents and interviews, with UNHCr, IOM, AND OTHER ENTITIES TO ENTRE THE US LEGALLY, WE PAY TAXES, AND WE PAY BACK TO THIS COUNTRY, BOTH MY BROTHER I WERE REGISTERED WITH THE SELECTIVE SERVICE from the age of (18-26) Because we WANT TO BE A positive member and a PART OF America, UNLIKE NOW WERE PEOPLE ARE STORMING OUR BORDER, AND THE NEWS STILL BLAME MEXICO ?Instead OF BLAMING THE ONES WHO REALLY KEPT OUR BORDER OPEN. \n\nTRUMP DID NOT WANT THAT TO HAPPEN BUT Brandon MESSED UP WITH HIS FAMILY AND NOW MESSING UP THE AMERICAN Families SO HE FEELS BETTER ( GET RICHER AND RICHER)

I can't believe we're taking in Asylum seekers from the US are you kidding me? This Country is a mess it's lowest but our Government just keeps sticking us with paying for anyone wanting into Canada. We shouldn't have any homeless vets & why does Canada think we can afford more people? Our small house we worked for & had 2 children in won't be able to keep it because the cost of living & taxes keep going up. Hours being cut & not enough money to put away. Building supplies doubled after the pandemic. I can't find the medical help I need. God help us as our Government isn't going too. No more people we should start a movement like the truckers that took over our City last year.

Make sure you pay your taxes\nIllegal immigrants need us

Democrats are that desperate for votes! \nI went to doctor last week and got a bill for 1,200.00\nThese immigrants come here and see a doctor for free? \nWhy should I pay taxes.

GOOD,and we should never feel sorry for these people.entering Canada illegally should give an automatic deportation.\nI am fed up paying too much taxes for nothing and watching my government give it away to these criminals, AND YES YOU ARE A CRIMINAL IF YOU ENTER A COUNTRY ILLEGALLY NO MATTER WHAT REASON!!!

This is the reason we of to pay so much taxes every year to mentain these people.

None of these people have paid a cent of taxes in Canada and yet will be given all the services tax paying Canadians get and more.

They should be picking up garbage and doing every menial task we have to offer oppose to living like they deserve better than actual citizens who have to pay taxes to support them.

cant even house & feed or support the canadians that were born and raiseds here in canada yet they can let thousands of immigrants into canada and house feed and supply them with our tax dollars. while we have citizens living on the streets seniors they cant pay for food or pay their bills ? its sickening

Make them the US problem. Canadians get all the benefits of US citizenship without paying taxes to Washington DC.
