As a fairly liberal Canadian, immigration is the only subject that makes me move to the center-right politically. We don't have the ressources to feed, house and care for 1.5 million new people every year, much less the Canadians already here. Justin Trudeau has been hurting the country with his open door migration policy because he's too scared to lose his brownie points from the far left. Any other politician is too scared to say anything negative and concrete on immigration because it's considered political suicide, but the tide is changing with Canadians. We don't want anymore would be asylum seekers or foreign students working and overstaying their visas because WE CAN'T EVEN TAKE CARE OF OURSELVES ANYMORE. Yes, our birth rates are too low and we need some immigration to help close the population decline gap that will eventually come, but it can't be a free for all. We can barely afford rent, groceries, healthcare, etc. now and I fear it will only get worse in the coming years. At this point, as an early 30 something year old, I will never own a home or even be able to move without dishing out 60-80% of my income for rent. None of this is viable long term, we're reaching the point of criticality

Send them baaaaaaaack, we don't want hear ur story. It's already hard for us...

Yeah, us Canadians need to CLOSE the effin floodgates and worry about who we already have here STRUGGLING!! Justin loves his immigrants

Already genie is out of the bottle.

Of course it's time we talked about this. It was time a few years ago at least. Can you imagine 2100 when we supposedly have have 60 millions more people, with the vast majority being low value people from India? It'll be an even worst version of India with real Canadians being a small minority somewhere in there. I bet it'll still be okay to be racist against white people then just like it already is today.

Actually native Canadians were already under siege, thanks to hundreds of years of European colonization.

Unemployment is going up, and rent, which is already high, is at an inflation rate of 8%. You'll be lucky if you can afford a basement apartment. People are fed up with all the immigration, but Trudeau - who does not have a snowball's chance in hell of winning another election - does not listen.

Correction - our government wants immigrants, the people are sick and tired of the mass immigration. It will end when Trudeau is kicked out. There are too many here already! It has strained our healthcare, our real estate market, we have East Indian students on study visas protesting and demanding to be let into the country. It is time for the Canadian government to benefit young Canadian families and let those that come here do so legally and with a job awaiting them. The insanity has to be over, if PP can't do the job, the Reform party will.

I WAS ALREADY PLANNING TO MOVE but I hope if I see you guys I can pay for your food or something bc you gots did a lot for my life

You should stay in Canadistan. It's already a muslim shithole.

Enough is enough, No More already to many in Canada. So it will be called Indaca ????

Good. Too many immigrants already

an issue with these talks in Canada that no one seems to want to address is the rampant racism that already exists in Canada. It's hard to separate the voices who are concerned about sustainability and those who just hate Indians for being Indian.

If u can afford to move ur already doing better than most Canadians

Just 1 month here in the US but already planning my retirement at my homeland. I miss my home so much.???

Turkey is already taking them in, and placing them in Kurdish lands to help them occupy it, like Israel is doing to the Palestianians. (:

Well the Saudis have already gladly killed thousands of Yemenis and destroyed Yemen in their proxy war against Iran, so what we do expect from them?

Because everything sucked out already ?

Many people are leaving Canada because they have already obtained Canadian citizenship. Hopefully, they won’t come back to collect free retirement money as a low-income family from our government after they retire!

beware the rise of Right extremists parties if these politicians can't solve these problems. In France you Le Pen already ??

Canada is part of India already!!!

No wonder it’s so quiet on this national day. Ppl are already so fed up about this county.

What about the people who are already here? It's terrible right now for everyone.

I already left thank God, I don’t wanna suffer that expensive economy and that long winter

The good ones moves and the rest will remain here and Canada would become ghetto and already became but future in not good.

Before the French Revolution, the French monarchy, under King Louis XVI, imposed numerous taxes that burdened the populace, exacerbating the suffering of the already hungry and impoverished citizens. These taxes included the **taille** (a direct land tax), the **gabelle** (a tax on salt), and the **corvée** (unpaid labor required of peasants). The financial strain from these taxes, along with widespread famine and economic hardship, fueled discontent and contributed to the revolutionary fervor that ultimately led to the overthrow of the monarchy.

Its high BECAUSE we are letting too many new people IN without enough housing to go around. Lets tale care of who is already here...citizens FIRST...and atop playung like we have no idea why its a problem. Kay? Do some actual journalism and investigate wand educate why the cost is high EVERYONE who comws hwre is strong in their CULTURE FAITH IDENTITY and demand a space for theirs. We are not strong in ours and its disappearing rather than people having to assimilate. When i travel to other countries, like Islamic law cpu triew for example, i assume thr cultural norms.. i dont demand i am accomodated and they wouldn't do it!!!

Harper broke the housing market when he adjusted the immigration rules in 2012.\nFrom 2012 onward the 50/50 split of economic/non economic migrants was over. From then onward, it would be 70% economic migrants. So already a direct contravention of equality unless disadvantaged(section 15 of the Charter).\n40% are thinking about moving due to high housing cost, well, when 20% more of them are now in the top 10% of monetary society... It follows that 40% would get priced out.\nI do not excuse the Liberals, they knew Harper said that those new 20% also had to have a 15-17 year old kid from 2012 to 2017, and they did nothing about the missing homes they'd continue needing.\nNo, Harper also did nothing about the new homes they'd need, he instead offered tax rebates for green energy retrofits, even further proving that Conservatives care only about those who already have money.

what is the point of letting in over a million people into canada every year when the people already living here are struggling for even the most basic necessities?

so you all haters think that when the canadians move out of canada , that suddenly , your rent prices just drop , no they stay they same , its only haters who are always broke and have no money from the first day .....\n\nAll i see here is bunch of haters who dont like immigrants and blame the immigrants for the high prices the same haters who say the immigrants steal there jobs while so called lazy canadians who refuse to do all low minimum wage jobs already in canada .

Well the best and honest way for everybody is the people who are already here give them PR,and put the strict rules for upcoming…and that gonna mention the day you get degree the police personally will take you from the graduation ceremony will send you back to your country…so now if you wanna come study well on good,if not then Canada won’t have any problem anymore …

Every country that pushes growth with mass immigration is doomed to fail. Ai will kill 1.6 billion jobs in the next 3 years its already hitting Banking Warehousing Administration and Retail Shopping. Mass immigration also lowers wages for the majority and raises rents and property prices killing peoples ambition and desire to work hard. Sweden is now a death zone France is on the verge of revolution and the UK is now an utter basket case. The wealthy are getting out of all the wests countries as mass immigration is a net loss with high crime rates and declining services. The countries that will be successful in this age of Ai will be those with small highly educated populations and none of those are in the west.

Get them out. Enough already!

Bro half of jordan is Palestinian at this point it might as well be called new Palestine cuz of how many people we already took in. These privileged white people forget that isnotreal and it's allies have also destabilized the entire region not just Palestine otherwise ofc there would be hands to lend help.

Clara am already doing cleaning job in Cairo Egypt please I need sponsor

US is already out numbered. If you don't intend to assimilate, don't come.

Forget Brampton they are already here in my beautiful city Calgary

As a 3rd generation Canadian it is so hard to have confidence in my nations future. The politicians don’t care, and the country is rotting from the inside out. We have no future here, majority of my university educated peers have already moved to the US for better pay and career advancement, and business owners like myself have moved or are planning to move away from Canada. It’s a shame to see our country fall but we need to look out for our own lives and are no longer patriotic for this nation

It already a liability you fools.

I wonder what the kings of the world will do when the children of GOD awaken or better have already awakened EA639

To support these immigrants, the government will be increasing taxes. They have already piled on huge debt causing the inflation to skyrocket. Healthcare has declined because the government has no money. The cost of bring in these people is causing Canadians already here to struggle in their lives. Why are they bringing in these immigrants?

Thks so much Naxa for this video I have a question where can someone seek asylum at the airport, where the immigration officers stamp your entry to Canada or after they must have already stamp the entry

It is israel idea to get rid of Palestinians by asking them to go to other arab countries. After that israel Zionists will greedily take the land. Worldwide already knows this trick. It doesn't work anymore.

Too many immigrants with no intention to assimilate and that overflood the current citizens can only lead to tensions or a scaling to violence. Like Quebec as already said about too many anglophone or no French speakers to the province as a Quebecer we have no future in Canada. Vive le Québec libre! Québec independence

At least Canadians are HONEST about immigration. Everything this minister said is true for every country. No country can produce all the manpower it needs from within its own country. Canada is openly begging immigrants to come. Europe needs immigrants and cannot admit it. Europe (Berlin Conference 1849) divided up Africa an colonized plenty of other nations and now they wonder why they are coming to a town near you!!!! YOu can wage wars all over the globe, instead of going into these countries and securing safe zones to keep all the potential immigrants on their own soil!!! The fact that they are already in a boat is already far too late.

They do not want the Palestinians. They already have to deal with the Houties.\n So what was first? The Bible or the Koran.

Justin Trudeau the most divisive Prime Minister in Canadian History. Trudeau's motto is to divide ,conquer and win. Trudeau cares for Trudeau and winning and no one else. He doesn't care for Canada and Canadians . Trudeau is treasonous, a liar, a hypocrite, unethical, incompetent, a narcissist, clueless. He needs to be voted out before he ruins Canada. The Federal Liberals are problem causers not problem solvers. Look at their track record. \n No consideration on the effect it would have on housing , the health care system , the education system which were already strained prior to his thoughtless immigration policy. This Federal Liberal Government continues to flounder.

Am I missing something here, Im not sure about open door anything, if you want a job you need to have work permit, if you are old and not eligible for working/holiday visa you need a visitor visa and look for an LMIA approved job ONLY, while already Canada, jobless, as a visitor, IF you get the offer its only then you can apply for work permit and after you got it then they hire you. is that how it usually goes? Or you have tens of thousands of dolars for a college you get study permit that enables you to work too. So, I dont see how is immigration to Canada easy and I have absolutely no clue how Indians and rest of the gang do it in such large numbers. Do they all just come on visitor visa and hope for the best? what about accommodation, money?

1. open up 10% of crown land to development 2. reduce immigration to 90s levels and focus on doctors and nurses 3. ban foreign investment into Canada's housing market 4. relax regulations and red tape around house building 5. force property corporations and individuals into selling off anything more then 10 houses. \n\nits not like there are not solutions to this mess its that Canadians are apathetic and passive so there is no pressure on politicians to enact measures like these that would fix things in 1 year not 30. either way I am out of here for the US already looking at places cause I have no faith that people here will wake up and demand change.
