Thanks for your insightful video! I immigrated to Canada in 1988 and worked there till 2018. Left the country in 2020, because I couldn't live on my $1900/mo pension. The long cold winters also influenced my decision to emigrate from Canada.

The maths topic. It's great to see white in maths. It's taken a long time for whites to take the reign. 1000's of years of yellow (Chinese) and brown (Indian) Not to take away brown Muslims that held the reign during 600 AD. Such a small equivalent population of whites and the mathematical Champions of the UK, Russia and America have brought it back!!

WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH AUSTRALIA. Bunch of goblins trying use another countries issues to BOLSTER Australias RACIST BS. My understanding is, AUSSIES got a problem with STAGNATION. you all live in a bubble with bunch of lazy WOGs collecting life long BENEFITS> Living on the DOLL for life as they say in UK.. Racists..

Justice Trudeau is a growth man but he spoiled by his father and his father’s friends so many years. Only learned political methods for so long years. \nCanadians need a leader who care people in deep, have abundant knowledge, make decisions in wisdom.

Blaming immigrants is a bit odd and clearly not addressing the real issues of the housing crisis which is insufficient supply and financial investment (essentially you can make the most money out of any investment in it with incentives governments have had in place for years - a classic bubble). For health care, clearly a lack of sufficient funds for an aging society and with worse and worse lifestyles (food, exercise) for our increased longevity. If we don't want immigrants we should consider increasing wages for certain work with clear shortages such as long term care for the elderly - which for reasons stated before, will have a demand that grows exponentially.

This country is a joke. As a Canadian living abroad. Other countries take care of their own long before a foreigner. Canada needs to have more pride with the people who built this country which is Canadians who have paid their dues and their parents. If you're a refugee we shouldn't deny you a plate of food but if my neighbor doesn't have it I'll serve him long before you, these are my people - the ones who has supported me in periods of unemployment, childhood - you can pay your dues too or don't come here. Look to your neighboring countries who share the same creed and where you can integrate better as you come here for our services. I wish Canada was less Socialist to attract only people who can pull their own weight. Socialism never works.

It wasn’t that long ago (months) that he was boasting about expanding the immigration numbers now he’s suggesting that it’s too much. Duh.

Canadians need to understand that Trudeau does not work for them. He is a WEF puppetician. This is where he takes his orders on things like immigration, spending, crime prevention, carbon taxes, and immigration. This is why he doubles down on unpopular programs like climate, and immigration in spite of the fact that they are creatubg serious hardships for Canadians. This explains the warning from the RCMP about coming social unrest. Ignore the prople long enough and out come the pitchforks. \n Just as Obama is the president or the US, Klaus Schwab is the defacto PM of Canada. 29% of Canadians haven't figured this out yet. These are candidates for MAID

He'll keep destroying Canada as long as he can.

The economic situation will improve one day,once this narcissistic woke sham artist is out of office. \n\nBut what about the social discord and animosity between Canadians who have been here decades and those that came post 2015?\n\nMy family came from India in 1965 and... back then you had to intigrate or else you couldnt make it here.\n\nMy granparents had to acclimate and learn the culture,although they already knew English.\n\nBut the people who came under Trudeau have no desire or inclination to do so and it is causing social ills.\n\nThose of us who came long ago are appalled at how low the standards to get here have actually fallen.\n\nElection Now!

He doesn't even know how many have come into this country or how many we've process for deportation that have simply disappears and CBSA can't find (35k) or how many criminals and terrorists. He is a complete idiot that we've indulged for far too long.

While the US and the EU debated whether or not 0.3% of the total population per year was more than could be supported over the long term, that idiot Trudeau has been holding at 1.1% of the total population per year. Now we are 4.5million family residences in arrears in a country that only has about 14.5million residences. So the idiot, Trudeau thinks if he tosses a little stimulus money around, which he borrowed and which taxpayers now have to pay interest on, that every 3 households in Canada will be able to kick in enough money to build an extra house, while also paying their mortgage. Do you understand how stupid Trudeau is?

I suspect things will go from bad to worse as Justin seems desperate to remain in power and will use whatever means he can to try and win another election. He still has 564 days to do more damage before we can kick him to the curb (hopefully the NDP will pay for propping him up!) and start the long recovery process.

I am from europe, lived half my life in canada came as teenager. want out desperately anywhere sounds good as long as I get some employment and health care.

Great commentary, Mr. Lilley! What’s next in the long shame-list of Turdeau incompetence????

When will Pierre Pollievre acknowledge this obvious serious issue? \n\nIts obtuse, but he's silent. You know who was calling it out long ago? Maxime Bernier. \nCalled names for saying the obvious. Now that we are all suffering its finally newsworthy?

Everyone knows justin trudeau hates his own citizens n wants to fully destroy canada ?? this is why he is all for these ILLEGALS waltzing in with there condums full of fentinol to sell off to our legal canadian youths ? trudeau needs to STEP DOWN NOW!!!!! PIERRE POILIEVRE 2024❤❤?notice = these illegals are handed checks$ ,cell phones our legal long waiting listed goverment housing ? but legal canadian citizens are made to wait on a waiting list for minimum 10 yrs !!!! But the illegals play a game with our sustem they no it well!!!! They cry wolf n the trudeau goverment n mayor arrange for these illegals to be handed housing NO WAIT LIST FOR THESE ILLEGAL CONS !!!!! Most released from there countries prisons for horrendous crimes n most throw there id away before waltzing in our canada ?? ?

Nothing new here. Lilley said it as plain and as simple as it can be said. TURDeau is responsible for all the problems he and the policies his band of incompetent ministers have put forward over the past 8 years. You name a problem in this country and you can be that the criminaLIBERALunatics were 100% responsible for creating it and now they are scrambling to make bigger problems attempting to solve the original problem. It's long past time Canada eradicate the scurge of Liberalism in this country and relegate them to unofficial party status in the next election. I truly hope that not a single existing minister gets relected in the next election, including JustINFLATION TURDeau, Christia NOTA-Freeland, Steven GuilBOOOP!!, Anita AnandMORETAXES, Melanie onaJOyrideLY, Francois-Philippedout drinkingChampagneallday, Sean shouldbe-ERASERed, Dominic LeBlancSTAREofanidiot, Johathan WilkinsonSWORDinEveryCanadian'sBelly, Jenna Sudds-inherbrain, Marck MillerTIME, Diane LeBOOTonyourthroatlikeHItLLIER and the many more equally deserving of mention.\nOUT OUT OUT all of them, and hopefully we never need to hear their names uttered again.\nBring on the CARBON TAX ELECTION/REFERENDUM so we can begin the process of repairing all the damage caused by this totally inept and incompetent band of morons.\nLONG LIVE FREEDOM DAMMIT!!!!!!

People are actually starting to question immigration? Wow that took long enough to wake up.

Mass immigration while we have a housing shortage and many other shortages makes no sense . We need a long-term plan about where we want to go as a country .

Trudeau will now do the maximum damage to this country that he can. He knows he is done in the next election, so he will delay that as long as possible, and destroy what he can, while skimming as much cash as possible. Prison for Trudeau and his Cabinet.

Trying playing a drinking game where you have to skol everytime Humza says 'white' and see how long you last. ?

you mean *Southern Ontario and the answer is Foreigners. long and complicated but down to Native Genocide and Wage Slavery.\n\nyea you nailed it.. the Mansion Casino is how they funnel money in to buy land up. among other ways

I'm gonna make this real simple; Canada's open door policy to accept all the world's problems is turning Canada into a third world country. We manage our resources piss poorly by giving far too much away while depending on over-inflated price gouging foreign resources. In the eyes of our own government Canadians are no longer people, just life-long tax payers, and the middle class is now almost non-existent.

It's the Liberal party that wants immigrants and especially from certain areas in the world. Liberals are gambling on importing cheap labour and compromised votes. Demographics already hit critical mass in major cities. Immigration is necessary as long as it's properly planned, balanced demographics and not politicized.

If the palestinian wont release the hostages? how long till they claim they are occupier of gaza?

If you are a skilled and talented immigrant, do not come to Canada! Your foreign credentials will be severely downgraded and you will be stuck working a menial job. As well, there is a shortage of housing, long waits for health care and everything is very, very expensive from food to fuel and many other things. Its probably the easiest (Western) country to immigrate to but not worth it in the end.

It is a government inspired crisis this time. The Treasury have to sell Bonds to cover the trade imbalance and the government spending imbalance. In order to sell them they have to raise interest rates and the old long-term, low risk, low interest, AAA investments (including Treasury Bonds), held by the banks (often due to government regulatory policy), become next to worthless. The next milestone is the 15th when the government issue a new batch of Bonds. I have approximately 350k stagnant in my portfolio that needs growth. What is the best way to take advantage of this downturn?

there has been and still is a long list of people with actual SKILLS and PROFESSIONS that have been waiting years to come to Canada why did the GOVT not fast track those people that have been waiting YEARS to come to Canada .....instead of opening the flood gates to economic migrants .

My ancestors got here a long time ago and I grew up believing that Canada is not only a place where so many could be happy and safe, but that people like me were better for it. I’m sorry to see you go — especially as I’m completely sympathetic to your last reason. Free Palestine. And I hope you come back.

Canada and the West, in general, need to look to Singapore for a system that works\n\n- Focus on Budget Surpluses- to provide long term political and monetary stability (aka not spending more than they take in)\n- Mandatory High Savings rate (due to CPF, a mandatory savings program that operates like Social Security but doesnt put the cost burden on the next generation)\n- Focus Low Taxes - to attract businesses and incentivize growth\n- A focus on Home Ownership (to make sure citizen have a stake in the country- this leads to more stability)\n- Strong Rule of Law

2:11 is a reflection of when Justin became Prime Minister and how long he has been in office

I personally believe that American interests put people like you into making videos like this...we fought long and hard for healthcare and the Americans fight long and hard to take it away. Take your opinions and move them to the Untied States where only fools buy this stuff. Your a shame to Canadians.

Canada Has ALWAYS Been A Jerkoff Country. All We're Really Seeing Here Is How Stupid People Are And How Long It Takes People To Wake Up.

The same thing happened to CA, the state is getting overwhelmed with migrants and people From other states who know the social benefits available and exploit the loopholes…. Unfortunately is going to cost the state in the long run

Immigration is viewed as a solution to a slowing economy and all of the problems it brings are ignored as long as the economy is stable and interest rates are low. But it is such a flawed ideology that only serves to diminish national identity, disrupt harmony and create social issues.

What a great video. For my personal experience the current recession and how it has affected the job market and the interest rates (inflation) is the root cause of all this. I also came as student BEFORE COVID and it was also hard to study and work to keep up with your basic expenses BUT at least there were jobs. Now the problem is the lack of jobs. Criminality is very relative and as you mentioned depends of your own expectation and environment prior arriving to Canada. The homeless and drug adicts problem is really concerning, specially here in Vancouver where I live. What I do is avoiding the downtown as much as I can. I would not mind to live in a smaller city or town as long as the salaries are good enough however the problem is that the living cost there are as high as here in the cities.

I and my wife had a quarel about this particular issue. I am currently in Nigeria and doing well cos I am a Software Engineer and I do remote jobs that pays very well. I have my own house, cars and my daughter goes to one of the best school in town. \n\nBut for some reason she wants us to relocate. She's been hammering on this particular topic for a long time now, and tbh I am very okay with where I am, I live like a king here why should I travel to another land and start licking someone's ass? \n\nI told her if she's persistent on this issue I will send her and my daughter to go then I can go visit time to time. But I am not about to leave my country just cos other people are doing so. My reality is different.

I ruled out Canada for relocation long ago!

Canada is a mess but it's still ( don't know for how long though ) better than the most of world in many ways.

The gov't is ruining our country. They've ignored the fact that it takes a long time to grow the education system, healthcare system, housing & yes cultural absorption. It just takes time to do this properly and the gov't is just gone crazy ignoring these issues.\n\nYou just can't invite millions of people from different cultures and think our culture will survive. I don't know why the gov't thinks this doesn't exist.

Look I have NOTHING against Immigrants. But housing has been long ignored by all parties and now we can't even support our own population let alone new immigrants with somewhere to live. It's INSANE. Housing prices are absurd. We are doing immigrants wrong by telling them this is a great place to live. That's just false advertising. My city is super multicultural and I love that about it, but more and more I meet uber drivers that used to be professionals in their country. They're struggling here and it hurts to see that. They deserve better. We ALL deserve better. Something needs to change, and considering how much Galen Weston makes and the fact that the rich keep getting richer, I think we have the means to solve this problem. The CRA has done next to nothing to close tax loopholes. It's gross.

Why does she do so long dramatic pauses while she speaks? ?

Civilization of the West is falling apart?.Long life to king of kings Reza Shah the second

PLEASE don’t come to Canada, it’s really not worth it. There is a long list of reasons; search any YouTube video and you’ll know why. I’m an immigrant myself who came here 8 years back but just cannot sustain myself anymore and will be leaving Canada this year.

The federal policies have gone a long way towards destroying this once great country

Only the very ignorant will consider coming to Canada at their own expenses. You will be nickel and dime on everything (tax), even on life essentials, your savings will be diminished, and most of your lifespan will be spent on traffic, in long cold winter like weather (at least 6-7 months of the year), while learning that most Canadian are suffering from depression and bearing high level of household debt just to survive. healthcare? don't even think about it!

You go to an expensive city and the cost of living will be higher. If your goal is to send money home, living in a very expensive city to pinch pennies isn't the strategy. Consider Edmonton or a small city that can meet your needs and long term goals. Think of the long term goal and do the math before immigrating to Canada.

I live in Nova Scotia and most of our population is practically now Indian population it was never like that say 8 years ago,im fine with anyone from any country living here for sure but it must not be bad for them because they have moved here in droves,practically every business is filled with indians all working in them and including where i work,ill tell ya there dedicated workers and work hard and i get it they need the hours to get there Canadian citizenship?So is there a long time perk of being indian and moving to Canada,Nova Scotia perhaps that i dont know about?Because us Canadians that have lived here all there lives are definitely not getting any perks or barebones living for godsake.

I think everyone is missing the point here. I Don’t support Israel’s retaliation, but I wondered why the Arab world has not taken in a single refugee. Poland didn’t condone Russia’s attack by taking in hundreds of thousands Ukrainian refugees. If Egypt, jordan, Quatar, to name the immediate Arab Neighbors would rally together to get the women and children out of harms way, surely the outcome would be better for these poor people. \n\nSadly this is not the case and it appears as though this conflict will never find a solution, as long as both parties are not able to set aside their millennia aged quarrel, acknowledge each other’s deep roots and belonging to the same land, and accept that they both come from the exact same bloodline. The exact same seed of a man named Abraham. Both parties need not to like or even tolerate each other, but they both need to respect each other’s right to co exist within that space. I’ve heard some disgusting vitriol from both sides, honestly. Both sides have and are behaving like animals. Infact animals are more civil, as their disputes are settled in a more humane manner, without the casualties within their communities. Yet, despite being created in God’s image with the ability of sophisticated communication, both sides are unable to get past their own hurt pride, at least for the sake of the innocent lives that have and continue to be lost on BOTH sides, to finally squash this matter once and for all.\n\nGrowing up I had a cousin . We both were the only Sons of our respective immediate families’, born to identical twin sisters, 3 months apart. From\nA young age everything was competition between us. Who ran faster, jumped higher, threw further. Every thing we did, and we spent a lot of time around each other, was constantly turned into a “who does it better”. This resulted in us usually throwing down as one of us, feeling like we may be on the losing end of any given task, would just get frustrated, and start soccer punching the other. And my cousin and I from the time were off the diary to the day we both matured, would THROW down. We would literally just start throwing punches at each other, it was honestly impressive how we both would manage to land equal amount of hits to look like literal bloody hell, and guess what, even those fights became competition as even our dads would throw money with the others pitching for their favourite. Fortunately, our moms, the only adults in the our community, looking back, people would just pick a side and watch as go at each other, than pull us off each other, would come stomping out of the house grab each one of us by our ears, gives us a good smack in the back our heads and sit us down, look each one of us straight in the eye, and say something like, “cut it out, you two are family, more brothers than cousins” they would demand that we both go hug it out, have a bath, if we managed to do that peacefully then we were allowed to partake in dessert that evening or allowed to stay up a little later watching tv, or whatever . My point with this overtly personal analogy is that both the Palestinian and the Israeli sides should be dragged off each there by their figurative ears pulled, sat down, scolded and reminded of their ancestrial ties to each other and to the very same land. \n\nBe honest with yourselves, some how amongst all this hate, vitriol, unnecessary death of innocent lives, are you, and those you rally with be truly ok with your opposing side coexisting harmoniously beside each other? If the answer to this question is no, the other side can not have any claim to this land and needs to be removed to god knows where, if not off the earth all together then it’s your people, not mine, that are doomed. We’ll still be chilling in North America, horrified at the unfolding events but chilling nonetheless. Although it somehow claims to not be doing so, the actions of Israel demonstrate a gruelling callousness towards Palestinian life or right to life, and the staunch calls of the constant pro Palestine protests, calling for the eradication of Israel, none absent of a deep, hate and disgust towards the Jewish people. Both are in need of serious internal reform. Honestly as a complete outsider, SHAME ON BOTH OF YOU. I don’t care who started it, or who said or did what, at this point it is imperil that this end immediately. And as an outsider, I think it’s is important that pressure be applied to both sides to put their weapons down. I don’t recall the last time anyone even mention the Israeli hostages, putting any pressure on Hamas to do the one thing that would definitely appease the Israelis. In the same breathe, Israel needs to be further pressured to stop being so trigger happy and lay off of it. \n\nI can only hope, I guess. In the meantime i should really refrain from ranting on YouTube.
