there's a lot wrong here...but someone who comes running behind the president could be a threat and his security detail reacted well to isolate that person and possibly establish his identity first....the Secret Service would have tackled that person to the ground asap,now hypocritical arrogant Americans are making disdainful comments about President Xi,typical of these brainwashed tools

Just as someone who has been here for 10 yrs... It is not true that all colleges are bad. I was in Algonquin College Ottawa, It was a massive college. Just make sure you pick the program rather than what the agents suggest, do you research. My husband was in Seneca College which was definitely not as awesome as mine, but it was still really good. Do not disregard colleges for unis only.

Who on the website told these immigrants that it was ok to come through. Someone is playing a dangerous game. I would not put it past that a Republican Trump supporter caused this ! Whomever did this is a scumbag.

Why are they always wanting the Palestinian people to be taken by someone other country ? ?

Great video.skilled people should migrate to Australia but never canada..let me add 3 more reasons : canada is a non happy people, due to complex life, it's very hard to meet a Canadian happy. 2. Many sectors in business are dominated by people from a certain country and they will not anyone work in that field. For example, security guard, and warehouse jobs are only for India. Firefighting jobs are only for someone who's father or brother is a Firefighter. School manager is only Canadian of Europe origin...3. Canada is age eating place, meaning you come to canada young, but ur life will run so fast , that you get old and crippled very fast+not happy.

Many people who have commented with negative sentiments are not really aware how it's elsewhere especially in poor countries. If someone is looking a basic life, definitely you can manage a job , basic amenities and lot of safety. If someone is looking good quality life with decent savings , that's possible provided if he or she take additional degree and start working in intermediate roles regardless of the business. Having certain specific religious background could help since this society gives lot of importance to your religious background, whether you believe it or not. I am not saying society is intolerant but admin is highly biased. Income tax is there in almost all OECDs, if you are still not liking it , well, you know who to elect next time .

Good bye\nPlease do not return\nYou guys choosing authoritarian countries vs Democratic countries\nPlease do not come back. We do not need someone who does not like Canada

In Canada, when someone can't find an affordable place to rent, they apply for medically assisted death. Better to die in a nice warm hospital bed than over some radiator vent on the street. Temperatures get very cold in Canada. Death on the street in Canada, if you are homeless, could be very slow and painful!

Someone got fired that day

The Palestinians want their land back and many are resolved to fight for it. This causes Israel to act like a jailor to control them. They would like to rid themselves of the problem and have someone else be responsible. No Arab countries want to take on that responsibility.

Someone will take your place tomorrow

This is the must STUPID THINGS I EVER HEAR \n\nSHAME ON YOU LONDON FOR ALLOWING THIS HAPPEN TO YOUR OWN PEOPLE \nI DON’T DRINK MYSELF BUT I WOULD NEVER JUGE SOMEONE WHO DRINK

I think this is bullshit keeping a knife like this in a foreign country which doesn’t understand your religion is wrong. Moreover if you want to keep a knife that can be kept under the shirt but he choose to kept it over the shirt just to show that I think it is more of a brag Then religious beliefs. Religious beliefs can be followed in your own country or at the religious places don’t threaten someone’s country like this and make a issue out of small things. If you are wrong, you are wrong. The policeman was just doing their duty for a policeman who dont have no idea what your religion for them. A knife on the top of the shirt would be a threatening thing so stop spreading hate.

Can someone please tell me wher 300k ppl go who are from a different country and have…like where did they all run to and go…ain’t no way in hell all these ppl in Texas sleeping on the streets…wher the fuck did they go bro

I for one do not agree at all with the indoctrination going on in schools pushing this LGBTQ agenda on kids I think its absurd! But to have someone convert to a different religion or they can not marry you is in my opinion another form of indoctrination and its definitely not tolerant of others beliefs. The thing about Canada is we truly dont mind others practicing what they believe, but ofcourse when it comes to kids and the LGTBQ thing I strongly disagree about this being in schools. But other then that we support different religions and cultures. I homeschool so there are ways around these kinds of things here in Canada and I do think the cost of living will go back down eventually and those that left will regret it.

Never heard someone acting like their doing something ethical by refusing to help refugees. \n\nI wonder what that reporter was expecting, Saudia Arabia is bombing Yemen into dust(actively aiming at civilians) and you expect them to help Palestinians

The Israelis have a right to live on their land, in peace….. Palestinians claim it’s theirs…..they obviously can’t share it, soooooo someone has to go.

Ironic that someone asks this loon something and he uses 'rights' as justification.

Someone is telling them to come. They reach the border with these expectations. I feel bad for them but consider everyone else who is going by the rules.

Lived here since 1966. It’s not “ Toronto the Good”. I’m lucky I got into the market in the 70s. I wouldn’t recommend moving here for all the reasons you say. Taxes are high, rents are high, crime and homelessness are high. Not a place I’d recommend for someone starting out to move here. I’ll stay here because I live in a lovely neighbourhood and know all my neighbours. It’s home.

In my country we dont have agency for canada visa we apply ourself if someone came here genine

dramebaz daughter and dramebaz father ... probably both were getting ready to fight with someone on flight ..

MashaAllah good for you that you have means to do that \nMay Allah subhanaotalaa bless your decision with HIS rahma ameen \nJust pray dua of istikhara where ever you go and Allah will bring peace and ease to your family InshaAllah \n\n\nFOR OTHERS WHO CANT MIGRATE \n\nDon’t feel bad bc it’s will of Allah and you might be the reason for someone to accept Islam or may be someone from ur generation ahead might be able to bring a big impact in west, islamically \n\nI went through this phase too where I prayed and prayed that I could move somewhere else when my kids were babies \nBut then I told myself that not accepting Allahs will by heart is not good and I didn’t had means to move \n15 yrs later\nAlhumdulillah kids go 5 times to Masjid living in mississauga paying high rent but I’m satisfied Alhumdulillah and v hopeful that InshaAllah Allah will use us for HIS deen here

I have visited the United States many, many MANY, MANY times over the years. I've loved every single visit. The people are warm and lovely....some of your scenery and historic things were more than a joy to behold Would I ever want to move there ? Not even for a second. In fact, sadly, my husband won't even go back for a visit anymore. This is sad to me, but I understand where he is coming from. \nWas sad to say good-bye to our dearest friends who moved to the US, because the job pay and promotion was impossible to say no to. They lasted 2 months and settled for less pay and no promotion to come back home. They found it so weird, that all the new friends they made, thought they were freaks because they didn't own guns. The final straw was when they learned these people were packing when they came to summer barbeques. That was the final straw, and they high-tailed it home. \nIn recent times, a country run by someone I see as a loose cannon, psychopath...makes it a most emphatic NO.

You don't waltz into someone's home and try to make it yours, instead be humble, courteous and show gratitude for the accommodation. Canada has been my home for the past 23 years. I will consider myself as a successful immigrant, my son born in Canada is at leading engineering university. My wife fulfilled with her career. Hard work and commitment to live and let live will take you far. Your personal belief and ideology should stay in your basement. I Respect your decision, good for yours and Canada's future.

I'm happy if someone with a Free Palestine hat is leaving Canada.

Someone tell JT how annoying the sound of his voice is

There are 1.44 million college and university students in Canada. About 550,000 of those are foreign that’s over 1/3. These students are paying 3 to 4 times the tuition of a Canadian. If 1/3 are foreign then universities are scamming both Canadians and the foreign students. There should be no more than 10-15% foreign undergraduate students. Canadian students are being rejected into university programs with an average of 95%. If someone gets 95 there should be no problem getting into a Canadian school. The system is broken for the tax payer who funds these universities.

Someone ask Trudeau what he thought of the chant coming from the fans at UFC 297 in Toronto this past weekend. Golden.

Labour shortage? someone in the family has been looking for a new job for 7 months!

Can someone point to an example where immigration has had a positive impact on Canada?

No it's not it's only making it worse send them back and fix our country now Trudeau or we will vote in someone who will

Whoever is not happy in Canada, you can simply leave to make space for someone else plain simple.

When the government fails in its responsibility, they seek someone to blame. International students are paying tuition fees 10 times higher than home students, yet the blame is unfairly shifted onto them for causing the housing crisis. Students are merely being used as an excuse by a failing government. Schools and government officials need to take responsibility instead of misleading the public.

Whoevers getting parts of those billions of dollars better be spending it like water so it feeds into the other working canadians and canadian businesses. my two cents.\nand someone remind me..who owns these homes are being built? Are they government ones? Are the schools planning to build more 'residences' -mandate it per school population? And....anything to stop international investors? Though i think the cost of internationals is way too high - it should INCLUDE housing and food at that point.

Duh, but then again you've voted Liberal so expect to get screwed over and shoved aside for someone else. You voted for it.

Yes. My university can only handle 1/3 the students. Every is broken. They are broke and cant afford anything more. If I want an actual education rather than staring at the back of someones head in a dimly lit room will have to leave.

The testing and background checks for these international students need to be more thorough. \nWhen I was in university (publicly funded) four years ago doing a group project there was a guy that couldn’t write a whole sentence with proper grammar. So he didn’t do anything and we had to reflect that on the peer evaluation. Then he begged the professor to not write him up because his family had to sell lands back home to bring him here.\nThere is no way that someone could get into a Canadian university passing all the interviews and examinations without being able to speak and write with proper grammar. So he had to have cheated during the process. They are affecting the experiences of other students by not participating in group projects, and talking loudly during lectures.

Bruh you can literally kill someone with a pair of scissor, so what should they arrest them to. \nIt's not about the weapon, its about how you use it.\nSikhs aren't gonna use for bad stuff for sure.

As someone who’s British Born Cypriot and identifies as Greek like 99.9% of British Born Cypriots, I’ve never liked the idea of getting drunk or even going to pubs or clubs. However, while I’m straightedge, I feel that it’s morally wrong for Muslims to impose sharia law on non Muslims.

International students ARE NOT driving up home prices or rent...that's a supply/demand issue (plus the lack of control government has on landlords and how much they can charge for a specific unit) and it's also a foreign buyer issue (yes Chinese foreign buyers, who buy homes in Canada but never move-in and use it as the home as a savings account). Not the international students problem, when the government of Canada DEMANDS THESE STUDENTS NOT WORK FOR MORE THAN 20 HOURS A WEEK and then watches them struggle to pay for rent (and therefore have to live 2 or 3 to a room)...yeah, don't blame the students. BLAME THE GOVERNMENT for bringing these students here, handicapping them by limiting their work hours (minimum wage at that) and then turning around and blaming them for why homes are ridiculously expensive and rent is unaffordable. Yeah, don't blame the government for it's inability to build homes...don't blame the government, instead, blame the minimum wage international student...it's going to be interesting if this actually brings DOWN rent prices and home costs. Which it won't, at which point, the government is going to be pointing fingers at someone else. Like they always do. LOL.

Finally someone is talking bout this. Something needs to be done. Close the doors to Canada until we can take care of Canadians who were born here.

What I would like to know myself as a Canadian resident for 60 years where is the financing coming from the students coming in from their perspective countries or is it Canadian financing. The next question please would be would these students actually contribute to Canada's society and not be like the last 20 years of nurses being trained and doctors also guilty of this of leaving the country and laughing at the Canadian taxpayer by not even paying back the student loan which is not forgivable by any means I would really appreciate someone to educate me on this it's just an unknown I feel almost ripped off.

Total BS, Has he spoken to every Palestinian person stuck in War zone & straving. How does he know what they want? Palestinians begging for aide asking them for help. Let them choose not someone who is not living in their hell.

Yes, as much as most people don't want to admit it, we don't have the housing or resources to take in so many. And not just students but our immigration levels are off the charts in all areas.\n\nI have no issue with someone wanting to come here hoping for a better life, but thats not a legal right that we have n obligation for. Same as you wouldn't open your door and invite anyone in the city to come on in.\n\nWe have to think about this from a practical level because our unrestricted immigration is causing a crisis in many areas, housing, health care and so on.

How to tell someone to STFU without saying STFU ?

What use is some of the studies if they study a subject and there aren't the jobs for it. Ever use Complex numbers? Ever use differenial equations? Have you used Fourier transforms in real life? After two years outside the area you studied and worked in Canadian Tires, you are pretty useless. There is always someone behind you.

There some landlords taking advantage of these students turning houses into rental and putting 12 ppl per house. Literally I know someone paying $400 per rent for one bedroom that she shares with two other people that are also paying $400. How is this legal?

If home prices drop because there is more homes being built that gives everyone an advantage. I don't even know what percentage of people own 100% of their home but I don't think it's that many, and that's going to drop significantly as well. I know there's tons of studies done yearly on the effects of stability on children and mental health, good grades, good health. All these things generally improve with safety and stability and it's consistent. If you are someone who can actually afford to buy your own house, you could just buy a cheaper house and invest the rest in something else. It's actually better to have diversity than to sit there hoping no one builds houses so you can maintain some high value property. And this likely will lead to a collapse as well. It's unavoidable in the long term

Let someone come to your house and tell you to move out, then come back and tell us your decision, Madam propagandist!
