Due to Trudeau's policies the standard of living for a LOT of people has rocketed downwards...his gas tax has made food and gas unaffordable, his mass printing of Canadian currency plus his massive deficits from year to year have cause rampant inflation, we have a massive housing shortage due to his policies coupled with the lack of proper infrastructure in this country (Canada is the ONLY G7 nation with high speed rail, plus we have no plans to build that)...as a result rents in cities like Toronto and Vancouver are ridiculously unaffordable...there is a massive crime wave happening in the country because of Trudeau's policies to release criminals from jails, coupled with his policies to use taxpayer funds to provide drugs (like cocaine, and meth) to users...stay away from Toronto, it has been ruined by the policies of the government run by Justin Trudeau and backed by Jagmeet Singh. :(

Could we bus these people to New York and Chicago? It might be fun to see how horrendous of a crisis we can create. It would be interesting to know where all the drugs these people are using is coming from. Even more interesting is how police, with all the technology we now have, still can't bust the drug dealers. Unbelievable! I mean, I don't believe police are doing anything to target the drug dealing. They allow it.

Its not only benifit India but also Canda because they are all connected to criminal activities and many illigal drug smuggling. The drugs will totally rune the young genaration of Canda. So my Canadian friends be safe ❤❤❤ love from India.

They are not Venezuelans that's what the drug cartel tell them to say so they can get in its all a lie

He was a drugs and arms smuggler + was running an organized crime network. What do you expect?

Canada is only for Khalistanis. Welcome to Khalistan. In Canada even Terrorists are not safe. Canada is the epicenter of drugs and terrorists. Canada is hell on earth thanks to Dust Bin Truedue the garage PM of Canada.

Thanks to ISI for doing these encounters cuz canadian khalistani terorrists started doing things on their own ..they were no longer under cintrol of ISI cuz they earned so much fir drugs and women trafficking.. trying to blame india ? NIA has its own power to counter u .. god bless canada from khalistan terorrists.. for gods sakes how many Canadians died by these terorrists on broad day light and even candian police never charged anything against them .. its our canadian blood which being targeted..

So a known gangster, thug, drug and gun runner turns up dead. What a surprise. Ever occur to you that criminals have enemies?

US is far better for individuals who wants to grow and work on themselves. I lived in US for 2 years and I got the best education learned a lot and met one of the most ambitious people. I always was motivated to do more. US boosted my education and career. Unfortunately I couldn’t stay there due to immigration issues. I moved to Canada and I am here for almost 5 years now and I am still struggling just to make ends meet. Every day I am looking for ways to get out of here back to US or elsewhere. Legalization of drugs, prohibitably expensive housing, poor access to health care, lack of availability of well paying jobs, massive intake of immigrants, overtaxation and fewer businesses opportunities. Canada was great place to live back in 1990s and early 2000s. Everything is going downhill after 2018. Immediately they need to fix immigration, taxation, healthcare, housing, drugs, and support small businesses.Else, Canada will continue to be the place of broken dreams.

Why this all homeless people like sleepy..It's may be drug

Sikhs,Punjabis are very hardworking..In India much was done to exploit the youth by making them drug addicts and drunkards..parents cannot control..so they send them to any country..to do.any job ..but be out of our house..as.the patrents get harassed due to daily fights.. please Punjabis send your children to Gurudwara..attend and arrange satsangs..in every galli of Punjab..atrange langar for all hungry all over ..teach GURUBAANI..SHABADS..involve youth in seva at Gurudwara...open drug deaddiction centres in every galli...do not depend on Govt...you must contribute whatever possible and save.Punjab...Your neighbouring country pummping drug misguiding youth..do not forget Punjabi ladies breast cut off during partition by these people who are your beighbour..do not believe them

Delhi is also capital of lndia like other capitals of other countries.But Delhi is quite different from other countries capitals .East or west lndia is best . Despite all these people are desperately want to go abroad , only for earning money,but money without reall happiness but adapted to the situation under compulsion and the next generation start to love the atmosphere of loneliness, selfishness, and some addicted to drugs , crime. Nothing can be compared with lndia except cleanliness, discipline,and population

My bid is on ISI a la Karima Baloch OR internecine conflict around drug smuggling.

Bhai, this is the usual problem with all western countries. They can not handle their inflation and welfare system is a burden that the politicians can not get rid off. Just like our reservation system in India which we can still tackle to some extent. But their welfare system includes students, disabled, elderlies, unemployed, rehabilitation of drugs, refugees intake every year. Besides, Chinese buyers are inflating the housing market everywhere in the world.\nAll my friends only want to invest in India and nowhere else lol. \nAnother thing I observed is that when people bring their parents overseas I do not see them happy. When I pass by them they stop for a second as if they are trying to talk to me. They have freedom in India to go to their friends and family but over here they just go for a walk around the mall, struggle to buy anything from supermarket and kids can't give them enough time.

Narotics were found in Canadian Plane in new delhi during G20 summit.. India should release photographs of Mr. Trudeau and his son enjoying joints while on a summit tour to another country where drugs are banned

?i I can relate very much feeling unsafe on TTC as i travel from Barrie to To. a few times each week ...almost each time someone is misbehaving / scary enough move away from ....they really need uniformed security patrolling ...& i also avoid using it at night so much homeless/ drugged up people around Union Station its awful

I’ve never been to Toronto, but I’m fairly familiar with Vancouver and surroundings. Any place with expensive housing has homeless issues whether in Canada, or the US. \nI think a lot of crime is related to drugs and that is everywhere as well.

Trudeau and Jagmeet are doing a very poor job of providing shelter to their organized crime friends. Khalistani drug peddlers, human traffickers, gun runners and terrorists have expressed disappointment with their godfathers in Ottawa.

India is Cleaning Terrorists in Canada then what's Canada doing Oh! Taking legalized drugs

Over population, greed, vulnerability to drug addictions, etc all feed this growing problem.

Drugs makes people's poor.\nGambling another reason ???

Looks like highest points in the Canadian immigration score are for Drug trade human trafficking money laundering etc...\n\nFollowed by mundane stuff like medical legal or engineering degrees

I don’t understand why canada is destroying their country \n\nIndia punjab is mess ..\n\nAtleast 20+ gangs operates in Punjab each gang has 500+ sharp shooters ….\n\nThey do extortion , kidnapping, killings , drugs etc\n\nWhen indian police trying to crackdown or eliminate these gangsters. They hide in india :..\n\nOr leave India … mostly boses of these gangs are not situated in India because of death threat from each other gangs\n\nCanada is stupid.. or using these criminals against India..,\n\nOtherwise there is no point

These Khalistanis are are hard core criminals and drug peddlers with connections to Pakistani terror modules.\nThey are a danger to any society.

No mention of the drug problem I the city.barely touched on the govts terrible immigration policy.

Why is Canada so desperate to give residency to criminals and terrorists from around the world? Doesn't Canada see what that strategy did to Pakistan?\nits not like criminals, gangsters and drug dealers will give up their profession when they move to Canada.

Left Canada so happy. Toronto is a crises and Vancouver is drug happy.

What the general public doesn't know is how these gangsters/terrorists survive and are able to flourish and prosper while in Canada.\nThey are drug dealers they have sources all across T.O and B.C from East to West and that is how they can afford to live in nice neighbourhoods, drive fancy foreign vehicles, dress in expensive designer wear, eat at the best restaurants, women, jewelry, the high life of luxury while all of you have to get up early and work 9 to 5 for next to nothing just to scrape by meanwhile these guys Indians and Asians mostly are the ones who make upwards of $2000 a day tax free ?? WELCOME TO THE NEW CANADA ??

Drug gangs and mafia is making Canada a mess.

Lawrence Bishnoi gang has already claimed responsibility. It’s insane to consider the number of gangs operating in Canada involved in terrorism, drug n human trafficking n organised crime! Seems like a Joke when these Canadian Leaders rant about Rule of law! Is there any?? ???

The main question is why all the drug mafias,murderers and gangsters of Punjab getting asylum/citizenship in Canada???\n\nAns:- Ask that terror sympathiser Jagmeet singh

Canada is safe haven for terroris,drug related crime,and kidnaping,blastfemy also

Thesw khalistani extremists with the help of Trudeau and ISI Pakistan have turned Punjabis into Drug addicts ?

They are basically Gangster and Drug Mafias who fleed India.\nThey shadow themselves behind this made up Khalistan issue and easily get Political asylum in Canada. The killings are nothing but the result of a Gang War.\n\nJagmeet Singh indirectly benefits from this Drug Cartel and harbors these gangsters in Canada.

Drug peddling is done through these students by khalistani terrorists

I'm sure drugs don't help the problem much ether........

'50% of the population was born elsewhere', and only 10% of them were actually invited. Thats 5% total legal immigrant Canadians and 45% illegal immigrants we want to get rid of and we're stuck wasting a lot of money trying to figure out who to keep, and who to send back. They stole from the rest of us to ship their relatives and foreign slaves in. Now we've got a rent and slavery problem in this country. We can't help the people who really needed help because all the wealthy foreign criminals are practicing a blockade of crimes, none of us can get past, exploiting any support we try to come up with. Blame the immigrants.\n\nThey moved our population to the streets, where many of them took to drugs to cope with their lack of existence. Our wealthy like any other corrupt wealthy blamed the victims and left us to die. Helped foreigners instead of locals. Which is why we have a sea of people coming looking for support they'll never get. We helped 100 when we were able, and they sent 2 million and we can't help anyone now. Never should have helped ANYONE. So now nobody is wanting to help anyone. They don't want the problem to get worse. The wealthy criminals only stole, never supported and our people are sick of being extorted, and stolen from don't want to participate anymore either.

@AlinaMcleod This was a pretty good video, I think it is not a fair video about the city. Toronto is a safe place to live and like anywhere else on earth crime happens. I have travelled around the World and usually in Urban areas. I was in Toronto recently (Sept 2023), like most big cities in the World it suffers from the standard problems. I watched the video and the cuts of Toronto are really nice.\n\n Homelessness in general is a terrible thing, but what city doesn't have homeless?? What major city is affordable? Rent in New York is about $5000 USD for 1 bedroom and we are not talking about something luxurious, in a great neighbourhood. \n\nBig Cities come big problems. We all have to make more of an effort to help change things, not just in politics but at the person-to-person level. People are suffering around the World with homelessness, crime, drug use, mental health and etc. Most of us just focus on what we can have and totally forget about the other humans that we share this planet with.

I recently visited Toronto on a business trip for the first time living in Montreal. I loved Toronto it is a great potential city. However, I saw drug addicts on the streets, homeless people at every corner I walked in, it is very expensive and on top of that I was harassed by a group of homeless drug addicts in one of its streets. I am lucky I had friends that told me where to go and not to go later. But as a new visiter you want to explore the city and enjoy your time and see what the city can offer you. I totally agree with what you said. It would only get worse as more and more flux into the city without any managing criteria regarding housing, jobs and life in general.

Couldn't agree with you more! After spending almost 20 years working in Asia/Pacific, I returned to Toronto in 2021, thinking that I would settle back. I was shocked at how much the city had changed for the worst (although I had been visiting every year). Drugs on the street, young people struggling with mental health issues and city that doesn't spend enough in social services to help the marginalized in society. I left in 6 months. Now live in Istanbul, a vibrant city steeped in history and culture that predates Christ.

They rush the border because the drug runners need to get there dope across to kill more Americans living here.

Trudeau legalizes drugs, and brings more immigrants than houses present in Canada. \nIn 2015, i asked a woman why she is viting for Trudeau, she said because he legalization of drugs. I wonder what shell say now

In 2021 Toronto had 9000 homeless, now days is much more. Drug facilities are everywhere even beside Ryerson University! The quality of life has gone down.\nToronto is a city without a soul, people are colder than the temperature during winter.\nImmigrants that have high education don’t receive help to integrate, I know professionals that have left the country because they are not allowed to work in their careers without the Canadian experience in a MC Donald’s \nCanada is for the refugees, who want to be taken care by the government.

This narrative is interesting. I had a brother who enlisted in the army at 16, was out by 18, met some California friends, began playing psychedelic music and doing various drugs. He must have sensed something wrong. But he fell in as a disciple of Paramahansa Yogananda. Didn't really fix anything for him. Your therapy seems better. And he absolutely couldn't wrench himself from California. Never got that. It would have destroyed me. But in 1975 I had an epiphany. And the clarity kept me from so much wrong with America. So use your clarity to seek a balanced existence.

Sad to see a developed country having homelessness.\nDid Justin Castro sold it to CCP?\nWhat about the drugs they give in shelter to these homeless Canadians (if they ask, social worker gives them cocaine, fentanyl etc) and its allowed by the bankrupt government.\nWake up Canadians your government is not working for you, they are working for their pockets.

I've always thought Toronoto was a Sh****le. You forgot to mention how everything is woke with LGBT (alphabet soup), homelessness is a big issue and one thing that hasn't let up is the crime and drugs. In T-dot, you'll either find the friendliest of the friendly or the worst impolite scum and it seem divided 50/50

I am born and rasied in Toronto and I would have to say what is happening now in this city is do to the covid fallout. Toronto has always had higher rent then most Canadian cities but I think with the loss of jobs and and the rise in cost of living all over Canada due to covid I would say that Toronto is going through some hard times like everywhere eles in Canda. Unfortunately because it is the bigest city alot of people have moved here in the hope of a better life. I have noticed a rise in drug use but have not noticed a rise in violent crime. They do say that the TTC is got worse...Hard to say as I take the TTC every day across the city and have not noticed any diferance other then more and more people are useing it again. During covid the subway was empty and now all these people that have never used it before are having to learn how it all works and subway edict. I think media is making the subway seem worse then it is. To me it has not changed. I do agree the real problem is dealing with homeless that was more hiden but now is out in the open. Funding from all levels of goverment needs to help all big canadain cites more. I think Toronto will come back again to what it was pre-covid. Hopfully soon!!

This is similar to the changes in cities like San Francisco or my home capital Denver, Colorado. I moved away from Denver a year ago because of the violence, the homelessness, the drug usage, and the car backings they were occurring. I think safety and violence are of concern in all of the major cities facing housing crises and rising costs. ?

I am a resident of Toronto for the past 11 years now. I moved here from Calgary because back then I had a better opportunity. I was an aspiring pastry chef. I landed in pretty stable and well paid job. I've already noticed the changes in city a few years before the pandemic. The drug addiction and mental health problem were already quite evident as injection sites were popping up around the cities including public parks. Then the pademic happened, it exposes the cracks in our society, some people are becoming selfish and intolerant. I lost my job due to the pandemic, it was very traumatic, I developed severe anxiety/depression. Luckily, i had some savings when it all happened. Fastforward, I've been working in the last 2 years now but I can no longer find the same job and pay I used to have. Most companies are now more ruthless. They let go employees any minute as soon as they felt the business is slow. There's no more job security. The only reason why I am surviving is because I am living in the same apartment since i moved here. However, my new neighbours who just moved in are paying twice as much. I've been attempting to leave the city but that would mean that i would be paying at least twice of my current rent and there aren't much opportunities elesewhere. I honestly felt trapped in my current situation but I am still grateful that I am still better off than many people who are already living on the edge. Sadly, the situation is only getting worst according to many analysts. I think the country is at a breaking point in many aspects.

Why is the border closed to people ESCAPING COMMUNISM, but OPDN to DRUG CARTELS?!
