Just so sad that first, they get used as Cash Cows and do not get blamed. Guys, Stop coming to Canada after spending 25-30 Lakhs. Most of those who come here before come as refugees or In boats. They aren't worth your Money. If I can go back to time I would have never come back

This was great, I think many refugees go back when the circumstances in their home countries get better, wars end etc. especially when they're already older and the weather?\nI'm from Europe, immigrants here don't go back but visit their home countries on a regular basis and rather stay within their communities

Ugh this is so sad. I was in my mid 20s when I left Canada for the US because the housing situation there was out of control. The park they showed at the 2:44 mark was where I used to live back in 2021 and I remember it was filled with kids playing and people walking their dogs. Now it's a tent encampment for the homeless. Very sad to see the living condition deteriorate there and hoping they can turn it around.

Although Quebecois like this should be speaking to immigration. \n\nIt's like finding the source of the real problem not what is at face value.\n\nSo one solution now is more strict French rules.\n\nBut part of the economy has reliance on immigrants. So look at the bigger picture.\n\nBut for the immigrants who stir up problems like my parents and take part in social problems or possible murder conspiracies. Well don't be surprised when those yet dead come back with a vengeance.

SOUND LIKE YOU 'RE SAYING THERE ARE NO RICH FOLKS LIVING IN CANADA. LADIES COST OF LIVING IS HIGH EVERYWHERE ONE DECIDES TO LIVE. THEN GO BACK TO AFRICA LADIES. WHY THEN WOULD YOU MOVE FROM YOUR OWN COUNTRY TO CANADA, YOU MOVED FROM YOUR CULTURE AND COUNTRY, WHY ARE YOU KNOCKING CANADA, SO GO BACK TO YOUR COUNTRY. YOU'RE EVEN COMPLAINING ABOUT WEATHER GOD GIVES, PLEASE LADIES, YOU BOTH SOUND SO IMATURE. LORD HAVE MERCY, THEN LEAVE.

Not only are they entering illegally, many that are in the U.S. illegally or legal are just looking at there phones and not even attempting to assimilate and learn English. I have noticed that almost every foreign speaking person is just looking at their phones and listening to media in their own language. If I was seeing some watching English media or at least trying to learn the language it would at least be a step in the right direction, but they ignore everything in English! Social media has a stranglehold on American culture!! There are several Spanish speaking groups being brought in to work in retail and grocery stores and it's just the same thing, they don't know hardly a word of English. If they come here even legally, they should be learning English, we shouldn't have to learn Spanish in our own country or whatever language they are speaking!!!!!Speak English or go back to your own countries, your culture is not our culture! Learn our laws, our history and our ways or stay out of our country!!!

Because you are not coming back old fashion way using anything just get a visa good job officer

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.

My own doctor as well as her husband who is also a doctor both moved back to South Africa, Canada was a huge disappointment to them

I feel like moving as a lifelong Canadian. I love people and love culture. I don't like extremists. \n\nMy problem is simply I don't our government is ethical nor caring to it's citizens, and as far as immigrants go, I am absolutely all for it with a reasonable rate without displacement or a negative sum on people that have built families here already. You can't just say we want to help and not give one thought about implications whatsoever. \n\nWhere I live you can't add thousands of people without thinking about making roards wider or more busses.\n\nWe don't look like idiots, we are. Let's welcome a host of new beautiful people into out country and not have a single plan in place besides pay for their housing (not necessarily bad), pay for their transportation (not necessarily bad), and allow a rent bubble to put our welcoming citizens with Trades to live in tents.\n\nHow about this as a sane alternative, the billions of dollars in road tax from gas prices which hasn't improved the roads, and the billions from legalized gambling...how about we audit our government and take a hard and difficult look as to where all this tax money goes, and more importantly the detailed justification? \n\nSame thing, same day. Canada has to be corrupt as the day is long OR our greatness was built on an history of lies. Take your pick.\n\nLet's hire as a people a 3rd party professional firm with oversight and give them 5 billion dollars, the amount we paid for helicopters and opted out for and still paid by backing out.\n\nThat thought alone should be brilliant enough to enlighten us all.

Canada is awesome, of course it's not perfect, but it's a fabulous place to live (if you can find affordable housing)! Our healthcare is phenomenal and maybe even too good. Medicine is intervening where it shouldn't and probably extending lives that shouldn't be extended. We have an aging population because our birth rate is low. But people need to take responsibility for their health. Most of the inflammatory diseases we all suffer from are preventable and our clinics are congested with people with very minor ailments who likely wouldn't be there if they were paying out of pocket for the visit. Gay marriage is legal, we eliminated the penny, we finally banned single use plastics, we don't throw money at space exploration or on our military, one year maternity leave, the Canadian Pension, the old age pension- so many government programs, everyone has access to free healthcare and it took a little too long, but we have MAID, we'll help you die if you're sick so you don't need to suffer. And where I live, we legislated out daylight saving time back in the 70's cuz it's stupid.

I spent a couple yrs downtown Toronto when I was in my older teen years and that was before the open drug issue and even back then it was bad u had to watch out for being robbed or r@p*d it was so bad back then I ended up going back home and choose jail over the streets. Got my shit over and done with and since then life has been good changed my life 360 and have a loving family 2 sons and now I’m up living in Algonquin (beautiful area)

The Palestinians got pushed before many times. Then they couldn’t come back.

You are right. I like my country, India. I had to move here only because I am gay. I wish laws change in India and I come back. I had a good career and great job and this tradeoff hurts me.

Maybe they should leave and go back to were they come from and leave the country to those who used to live there?

Biden promised them something. He's giving them free resources they don't have to pay back, etc. I wish I knew the real reason he is doing this. I pray he is voted out in November and God can undo the evil he has done.

Those fucking Muslim can not impose Shariah law in this country this is a Christian country dont like it go back to middle East

Okay so ever sonce the rent caps were REMOVED by the provincial government back in 2018, yhe amount of homelessness has gone through the roof, that and the fact that in Ontario the Provinical government has froze social assistance and disability service rates. It is a cop out to say its the refugees! You guys have it all wrong. But hey you could be here from the IDU to help bolster Pierre Polivier. Our fucking borders are NOT open. That is ridiculous. Doug Ford has fucked everyone over in Ontario. They are more interested in helping gain power with their IDU member party buddies.

All you people who came and used up all the good things Canada offered you and you have no back bone to vote and fight for Canada good please go Canada needs strong people not Jam Tartes.PLEASE LEAVE and strong Canadians with back bone will fight

Palestinians are refugees in their own land. Give it back to them and let them live in peace. Arabs should unite and stop Israel. It can he done by MBS. But he's too lazy to help his own.

are you all naive ignorants or liars. Why don`t you admit that all of this has been conceived and orchestrated - all over the world. Except in Russia - because they had experienced a big junk of the whole misery already in the 90 ìes. But now they are doing much better, thanks to a decent (non -woke christchian ?) elite (maybe, I hope so) ?. Btw: almost a 100 years ago, part of my german ancestors fled from the communist (80% jewish) terror in Ukraine to overseas Saskatchewan, merely to save their skin. Nowadays it might be better for the rest of them to fllee back to Putins Russia. ? P.S: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_NOWkkyQmA

Why don't the Europeans take the Europeans back rather then giving them more Arab land

Why these countries in the Middle East for instance, Jordan and Egypt don’t want to help the Palestinians let them in until they can go back to Palestine when the war is over, but they don’t want that they won’t allow them in their country. I wonder why. he didn’t answer the question he went around it. These people are very slick.

If Egypt let the refugees in, then Israel will never let the refugees back into Gaza. Gaza will not exist anymore and will become Israel.

Once they exit Gaza, Israhell would never allow them back.

Wow, guys don't hove up on your country as yet, never know what can happen .? everyone was like, nope, not going back there

Well said, why must the Palestinians leave their land, never to be able to return to their land by Israel. It has been happening over, and over again. They leave their land and not allowed to ever go back. When they return their land is occupied by settlers.

Many immigrant think that Canada will welcome them with a house and a good job. I have met many immigrants that they are back to their countries because they can not adapt or They do not want adapt to the Canadian way of life (which by the way it is not that difficult.) I am doing well because I get up everyday not waiting to get hand me downs or charity. I work hard. I also know many immigrants that have made Canada their new home and they are really happy. Definitely, Canada is not for everybody.

Deport all of them back

india should stop producing kids. in india there is NO space. No space to walk even .. it is super crowded. when the population would go down, we would be able to make space for xpats to come back

I wasn't born in Canada, but raised in small city of Fredericton since 10 and moved to Toronto for jobs and school in 2014. I don't even recognize my country anymore, it is such a big shame. At least, I had experienced a simple Canadian dream life back in New Brunswick.

We as TRUE CANADIANS need to seriously fight back. If we don't fight back now, eventually it will be to late to fight at all. \n#freecanada

They don't want but they have to, to come back later in position power, even jesus left judea to go in egypte when he was persecutated

It might seem cruel not to take in refugees but they know if they do they will never be aloud back and what they have fought for for decades will all be for nothing.

Getting ill causing a month long stay in the ICU left me homeless as living paycheck to paycheck causes once the cheques stop , I was placed in a Toronto homeless shelter 3 years ago and I can tell you that African refugees enter a shelter and no more than 3 weeks later are housed usually 5 at a time all Getting a fully paid market value 1 bedroom apartment average price $2,600 monthly that with a monthly welfare cheque and free food dental medical prescriptions clothing WIN WIN WIN the Canadian born homeless shelter residents get put on a 38,000 name waiting list for Ontario's drug infested housing ghettos the Africans are being housed under a kept secret program called COHB secret from us Canadian homeless that is and I've witnessed this now at 5 different shelters I've been in, having befriended one of the African migrants who is a little unstable drinking alcohol and smoking pot so he hasn't been housed but he has shown me the paper work that has been housing his fellow illegal immigrants and I say illegal because they all came as visitors only to claim asylum as soon as they land he also told me they all borrow the money for their plane tickets from a gang who once they land and start instantly getting welfare have to send half the proceeds back to this gang in Africa for the next two years , in this shelter donated clothing comes in everyday and two African shelter residents fold and sort the clothing taking all the name brand clothes what they didn't hand out to the other Africans they walk to the post office and ship it back to Africa I'm not making this shit up after we complained to staff which also happen to be made up from the Africans themselves yes they've hired wolves to watch over the other wolves so they now aren't walking out the front door everyday with garbage bags full of clothes at least not in front of our eyes DON'T CALL ME RACIST I know that's the go to word when this insanity is made public , what do you think is the first thing these Africans do when they walk into their free apartment? Make phone calls back to the friends they left in Africa saying Get on the next plane to Canada free apartment free food free clothing free medication free dental and free money every month Canadians need not apply

Why don’t you take legal action against Natanyahu for breaking international laws than the Palestinians will have their land and homes back.

Needed is a General Canadian Census of everybody, immigrants and homeless tent and vehicle dwellers so that a current population count is obtained. Next, build density apartments to house everybody, not luxury condos or apartments that are overpriced. Bring back the rent cap to Canada under control of the Federal Housing Minister.

The problem is we have a drama teacher running the country and his fiscal plan is the economy ‘will take care of it self’ that’s his quote not mine and Canadians keep voting him him. Reap your rewards you simpilron canucks. Largest spending country per capital of any country in the world on covid. And the cool aid drinkers of Canada and opposition leaders praised him for it don’t worry about paying anything backs it’s ok we’re learning from our citizens OMG

Go back to your countries and make them better. Enough contributing to wellbeing of target countries!

Send back all low and no skilled immigrants from the last 10 years. End international students.\nAnd a freeze on immigration for 5 years. CANADA ?? FIRST!

To go where ? Back to their fourth world country?.. ye rights !

THOSE INDIAN EXPECTATION TOO HIGH THAT WHY THEY CONTINUE TO COMPLAIN....THE INDIAN WANT TAKE OVER EVERYWHERE THEM LIVE...AND NO COUNTRY WILL ALLOWED THAT.....THE INDIAN MUST GO BACK TO INDIA AND STOP DOWN GRADE CANADA....NICE PLACE....

If you have live here for 20 years, you can afford to go back to your birth country. The gov here wants house prices to go up.

there should NOT be a single homeless Vet....not a single one... Canada is just a rat trap to enslave you, abuse you, and spit you out. that's why people come here, work hard, then they do what?? they LEAVE BACK HOME!!!. shitty thing is Canada is our home... us Canadians wish we were immigrants too

As a South Asian living in the Uk ?? I've heard of the Desis in Canada ?? as having a bad reputation due to the smell in a place called Brampton. For FFS, learn English and integrate with the local culture. If you dont, then go back to India. It's embarrassing that South Asian to hear shit like that from other communities, not just whites..?‍♂️

But Prince Yahudi Salman is Helping Israel to fighting back the Yemeni

Couple of years back there was only few places DT with a tent here and there, now we have Trudeau cities every other block.

If people think they can just stop immigration or send anyone back, they are delusional. We need to better vet applications, cut down on asylum seekers, reverse international students back to 20 hours/week work, no one walks in from US and claim asylum. When someone comes to study, the focus should be studying and not working full time. Stop sending billions to other countries and start investing it on our housing, infrastructure and services. Give tax benefits to small businesses and startups. Strict gang and crime laws. Finally, stop giving free drugs to addicts and have better rehab and resettlement facilities. Above all, people have to stop thinking the dumb idea that anyone is being replaced or anything.

Justin Tr has single handedly destroyed this beautiful country, for his personal selfish agenda. I came to this wonderful country from India 50 years ago. I have seen many Prime ministers come and go. But I have never seen anyone like this man. He just want votes, never thinks about this lovely Canada. With mass immigration from India he is making sure that he gets enough votes with the help of his right hand man Jagmeet . Still Canadians are foolish enough vote for these two Canadian Value destroyers. These students bring no values to Canada. They just want to continue living here with the culture back home. They do not want to integrate with the Canadian culture and values. Trudeau his cronies, and his deputy have systematically destroyed the Canadian values and the Canadian economy. He is eyeing only his personal gains. I hope the Canadians will wake up and boot out this incompetent clown and his gang!

We have the right to fight back
