I became homeless after spending over 2 months in the ICU of a Toronto hospital barely walking in was taken to a Toronto city shelter and for 5 years I've been in 5 different Toronto shelters in what seemed like a blink of a eye every shelter became 80% north African Muslim men ,they were given cash allowances to buy their own food $80 a day plus welfare cheques once a month boosted up with TTC allowance $157 clothing allowances and yes they were all given money to buy laptops and smart phones apparently so they can keep in touch with their families back in Africa, in the last shelter I stayed in there was only 6 white Canadian born homeless people living there and 94 north Africans whom we started to notice were being housed only to have the next one take up their cott space housed yes and when we started looking into how they were getting housed so fast when we were apparently on a 37,000 name waiting list for housing with our housing workers telling us it will take 10 years if we are lucky then we found out about the secret housing program that these fresh off the boat immigrants were getting market value apartments of their choice you pick the government pays one African we befriended ( he wasn't a believer in Islam shush or they'll kill him) got a 1 bedroom condo apartment over looking Toronto's Island airport $2,700 a month and the government payed for all his furnishings, so now we knew and we approached the on site housing workers asking why we weren't told about COHB at first they tried to deny it existed but researching we had all the information first these COHB forms were to be handed out to those with seniority length of stay so as to cut out on abuse being that they are worth over $250,000 after ten years of paying your rent as in free housing for life , then we discovered the staff were making false entries on our files claiming some of us lost our seniority for fighting claiming we were kicked out for 14 days others for smoking violations what they didn't think we knew was on admission to any shelter you sign a agreement that they are videoing you and keeping a file on you that also stated we are allowed to have up to date copies of our files then during the 2 weeks we were supposedly kicked out we asked for the videos from that period once they realized we had a advocate working for us who a l so supplies lawyers to us should we need so they got caught then management called us all up for a meeting and that's when we hit him with a bombshell yes the shelters are staffed with immigrants from the same African countries this Hoard is coming from and we have a sworn statement saying they are charging $10,000 for these guaranteed housing forms yes $10,000 that's what our none Muslim African shelter friend payed for his form and why he's now living free in easily close to a million dollar condo and believe me the cars parked there show it, ok so after we busted them guess what 6 whites who were all born in Canada and have lived a average of 3.5 years in a shelter all got housed in apartments of our choosing mind we did get ours fully furnished by the government like all these illegal Christian hating islamists get free housing free food free clothing free medical free dental free prescription drugs and a free huge monthly welfare cheque Rebel news please contact us we want every Canadian to know what's going on and how we Canadians are being left out, p.s just go to any money transfer business at the end of the month and you'll see line ups of these north Africans wiring money back to their wives and families even boxing up all the mountains of free clothing sending it to Africa same what they're doing with all the prescription drugs they are getting for free everything is about making money taking taking taking not putting anything back , now I sleep soundly no one stealing my belongings no more catching a different cold every week no more being called a filthy infidel which seems to be their favorite word COHB look that up and if your living paycheck to paycheck working 2 jobs just get to a shelter say one with 94 Africans who will all be housed shortly leaving you the most seniority easy peasy but remember to keep a eye on your file for false entries or borrow $10,000 to buy one

Those jobs were viable for years but Canadians didn't want them because their min wage and lousy hours and conditions. Theses people have a real work ethic and they want to succeed . The average age in Canada is fifty seven. Who's going to pay for the Canada Pension when weir to old to work? Hope ya don't think the rich is going to help you with no pensions and medical.

I agree with over percent with what the white women said at th e beginning.. The part that she actually does have to hear and accept is the truth..Her ancestors were and are colonizers, those are basic truths.. But the Government must turn the taps down on immigration right away, it is totally out of control.. Things are at the point where no one Zero more immigrants from India and Pakistan should be allowed to enter the country, for at least the next few years , until the government can get a true handle on things.. I really don't think the government officials have any idea of the pace at which Canada is rapidly changing.. It is mind boggling the rapid changes and that's from every single nook and cranny of this once beautiful country you will see new immigrants.. There are places i went to as a child with my folks, where you would never have seen nothing but white people, maybe a few native people, a couple of black and oriental folks and that was it.. Now there are car loads of east Indians running around some actually living in those communities.. I am not a racist person, but that's my own observation on the ground.. I think every single Canadian in this country would have the exact reaction..

I think this is what the Bible meant when they said you run to the stone the stone will say I can't help you I am in the same boat like you you run to the tree the tree will say I can't help you even I am in the same boat like you I think this is what the Bible meant no place to run because India overpopulated their own country they have no place to run so they will populate the entire world that's exactly what the Bible meant button parables me I'm just going to pray to die quickly because it's better in heaven it's corrupted on Earth what are we living for to put up with all this bullshit. Pull the Bible out people. And see that Jesus speaks of these same thing.

This is the scary truth. We Canadians are being purposefully victimized and our rights as citizens has been eroded since the last 5 years. Trudeau, and now Carney, is bringing in more immigrants than the country can handle. They are illegally driving transports causing more accidents on the roads ever. Our restaurants are primarily from India and Pakistan. Some Indian people are here on school visas or work permits and are wonderful people and speak perfect English. They are welcome. They are Christians and nice and courteous. But there seems to be a disconnect between immigrants who come here thinking bc they are moslem they are superior and do not need to follow Cdn laws language and culture. We don't want them praying in the streets on their rugs disrupting the city. We have churches and they have mosques. They will NOT takeover our country in spite of Carney. Carney and the Liberals needs to be kicked out of office. Deport the illegals and stop immigration NOW!

People need to stop saying we are losing our culture. This is a brainwashed technique into none action because we think there is still time. Once we accept that our way of life is gone, then it's time to get it back. Let's be honest as an immigrant. The biggest pushback I've ever got for the observation of truth is from white liberals. I've been called racist for defending whites.

Dear white people. We don't think you are racist on this matter. The fact of this matter is that Canadians are "too" nice and good-hearted. Hence, we are exploited.

Its about time but guess what; the rich don't care; its already over for the western world. If you think you can put so many different people together your delusional. The elites are insulated; the people are screwed.

it's mostly Toronto and the big cities you'd be pretty dumb to think we're going to give up everything to people who can't even speak english? just feels like overload when you open borders, but honestly these immigrants are ubering us around, getting our food and groceries for us. I wonder if they've realized they've been scammed into thinking they can create a life here in Canada off a 10-15$/hr job lol

Because they are not trying to fit in to our society and they are causing problems for the neighbors. They receive more than born Canadians and are given jobs here over Canadians. In my apartment building they don't like to be told to stop causing noise disturbances, in fact it even gets worse when they have been asked to stop. Some of the tenants " Newcomers " seem to think they can operate a business in the apartment which means they use excessive noise to build whatever they are building. Once they have been asked to stop by other tenants and given notices they then decide to retaliate by causing further noise which is deliberately to disturb the rest of us. They try to intimidate people that they know are born Canadians like some kind of gang members. We no longer feel safe in our own homes and neighborhoods. We are tired of them using the race card for every problem they have which is usually something they caused in the first place. In this particular building on Queen st. N. in Hamilton they cause trouble in multiple different apartments which they attend. Once they have been asked to stop causing noise in one apartment they just go to one of the others and then proceed to do the same thing there. Some of the newcomers have been given more than one apartment in the same building and therefore run back and forth between those apartments and slam the door of each one over and over all day long. The management has been informed hundreds of times for a number of years and yet they have not yet dealt with the issues. There is an ongoing record of so many incidents in this building which the management has not addressed beyond a blanket notice to all tenants regarding noise complaints. The manager says things like " It's a process " and yet there seems to be no results. Is management afraid to just simply evict the trouble makers ??

Sad part they are bringing in more young males. Contrary to what some people think you need females that are born female to have babies.

A reckoning is coming for the people who do not want to assimilate to our customs and norms Canadians tolerate a lot of abuse and just smile and look the other way hoping people will realize how they are acting eventually and change their behavior the people from the middle east your gonna start a civil war. I am Canadian my family been here for many generations don't think for one second this place is gonna turn into the middle east Canada was the first to invade and liberate the Netherlands from the nazis don't for a second think we won't act that way on our own soil to people who disrespect us at home during covid the government got lucky that we were peaceful what happens when you corner a wild animal people are gonna find out

Why do people think that forcing thier beliefs on people from CA county your not from is acceptable. This is Canada. Where som fu@king deodorant, and quit shitting on our beaches.

My friend had a crazy incident a year ago. When due to very strict rules, he lost his pgwp and became visitor status. He had to use hospital services and he called them and asked them why the bill was so high. He was given remarks on the phone by a lady that “Oh we citizens pay taxes and thats how healthcare is usually free”. I mean he was here from last 6 years and was called that like he did not pay taxes. Idk why being rude to person without knowing what thier status was before. I think people are really fed up with anyone who says they are either visior, on pgwp or TFW in general. Sorry to say but, no one should just burst on others and say oh I paid taxes or its free for citizens only.

Canadians have been labelled racists; Indians have refused to adopt the Canadian way of life. They are dirty, rude, blame deflectors in the workplace. I have been replaced by Indians in the workplace due to claims of "racism" just for calling out issues created and perpetuated by Indian colleagues. How many scam calls are we all getting now, how many jobs are we losing to them now, how many incentives are companies exploiting by hiring them just to drive profits now? I have a university degree and cannot get a job after such terrible experiences with these people in the workplace so I am going back to school in order to enter a type of industry they have not 'yet' taken over. Boomer thinking, their voting of Liberals and media brainwashing of "cultural diversity" has brought these issues to the boiling point. Enough is enough! Go back to India!

If I remember right canada first house crises was in the 19’s something and back then they started making more houses to resolved this problem………………..,… And I am thinking that getting immigrants from only 1 country might not be good, because of countries, society mentality…………. One Example ; a-lot people in the USA are strong guns advocate, if Canada only get people from the US and because the majority of Americans love their guns, they may advocate to have more guns freedom in Canada and teach their children guns loving mentality. So it is probably best to mix individual from various country to minimize this outcome. ………………. In any case immigration are very important for countries whom don’t make a lot of babies, to survive and stay strong in today’s world where weak countries are getting crushed by strong countries……………… what make countries strong is their population, where government take taxes to pay and buy defensive guns to defend a country without the need to go into dept and sell its soul to powerful countries. I did not go to any university and yet I was able to understand this …

As a Indian, most of the people in the comment section blame trudeau, Jagmeet, ndp and liberals for this. But i think the dumb Canadians are fully responsible for all of these. From 2015 to reelecting the same shit government that created all this chaos.

The problem: we still have technocrats that think more people are essential to "growth". That an expanded economically bottom of the ladder work forces will somehow "pay for our (indexed!) pension system". The liberal mindset still believes this bunkum. And the Liberals are still running our immigration system.

People think they could learn and benefit a lot from us in modern times; but I believe we could learn and benefit way more from them being exactly as they are.

No matter what you think of Trudeau: This speech was brilliantly delivered and full of compassion for both the people of Canada and of the US.

All leftwing pelple in the comments insulting Trump are enjoying freedom of speech that right wing people are fighting for while if they were in power they would silence half the country on social media. I think this speaks volumes. Not hard to see what would happen, just look at what happened under Biden and what happens in Europe. ? Yet it's somehow Trump the dictator.

From Germany:\nRespect for this speech by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.\nWe Germans know such master races who think they can enslave and subjugate a people.\nWe are still suffering from it more than 100 years after the Hitler putsch in Munich. At that time, the NSDAP wanted to overthrow the Bavarian government and then seize power; that was the first attempt, but the second one unfortunately succeeded.\nNow we see how this is repeating itself in America, how an orange-faced clown wants to rule the world and change it.\nThere were some powerful men at Hitler's side, but the really dangerous ones were the followers, the so-called little people who had no say and finally got power over other people (neighbors, friends).\nThese little traitors who spied on people were the worst of all.\nWatch out in America!

I think all the people on the Planet Earth(not russians) are on Canada's side!!!

The whole world is suffering because some ignorant arrogant people in the U.S.believe that for the price of a cheap stupid red hat they will belong to a cult that tells them what to think to fuel their discontent

Hi to all the people in Canada the British people are with you, Trump has pissed off its best ally and that's the British, he has upset our long term friends & ally which is Canada - that's the people and country we in England have massive respect & love for, I don't think Trump is doing a good job right now! ?

In the case of high treason, i.e. treason against the interests of the people of the country. Who came to power? A man who thinks not about the interests of the US people, but about the interests of a handful of billionaires, including political circles in Russia and China. The war against Ukraine is just the tip of the iceberg of the war of the ruling dictatorships of the Russian Federation and China against the poor strata of the people of their own countries, against Western civilization and the US and the EU as a part of it. This is clearly seen in the propaganda against human rights and freedoms in these countries, the destruction of trust between people. What to do in this case? Wait until the US as one of the foundations of modern civilization is destroyed by short-sighted supporters of anarchy, monarchies and psychopathic dictators who do not respect other people's borders and treaties? Doesn't Trump's actions contradict the basic principles of the US and Western civilization? The United States is a country of democracy, humanism, human rights and freedoms, a country that has become home to the world of many people who have improved the quality of life of billions of people all over the planet. Question: When will the current US President/poppet of dictatorships be impeached?

Trump is (clinically) a malignant narcissis. Hi personality needs to be fed by a constant flow of accolades from his chosen lackeys. He is so easily played by people whispering in his ear that he is being slighted (Zelensky and Trudeau, even if it is imaginary. It is ridiculous that America has allowed this to come about by their majority of incredibly ignorant voting populace. Starmer showed how to handle Trump. Grovelling and obsequious flattery. Noting else. We are dealing with a President of the USA who has a low IQ even lower EQ (think of a vindictive 10 year old). He has sly animal cunning for sure but that's it. We have 4 years of this moron, God knows what damage he can cause. The thing that motivates him ? Challenges, aspirational acts of benevolence ? Don't be silly tuckers and lovers, it's lovely money, as much as is endlessly possible. Is that the American dream? Is that what makes this English speaking nation tick. Looks very much like it.

We are not that people. .we beethen that people. We are good.we smart.we are educated people just you needed think

Stand ur ground, Canada.\nTrump thinks he can push people around, intimidate, Like a wannabe mob Boss, hes a manboy. He only wishes he was tough. remember He avoided war because of a hang nail. ?

You Go Trudeau. Well done. Donald is an idiot. Trump is clearly being manipulated by Putin and He's not smart enough to figure it out. I think Putin has something on Trump like a legal issue or something to do with money. Just a quick Question for the people who voted for Trump. Are you still happy with your decision voting for Trump? We have to push Trump out of the White House and in to a prison cell.

This is why THE WORLD respects Trudeau. Dumb ass Trump thinks he's genius for imposing tarrif's to their long standing economic partners, but he is ACTUALLY DOING MORE HARM THAN GOOD to the american people. Countries will tarrif back hurting both businesses and the american people he so wish to give a good life to. They are a bunch of clowns who are basically just giving us good television. Americans are not dumb. Trump will keep on twisting and twising the narrative to sell his side of the story, but it's clear as day that the only back Trump has ever got is Putin's. Sadly, America is becoming a lapdog of Russia under Trumps pretentious leadership.

Trump force you to be self sustainable and you think it harmes you ? Don't think like a retard . Trump force you're goverment to grow you're life style quality as a simple person , not to be stole by corporations , only people have to win from this.

As a non affiliated american i hate this is happening, economy is horrible enough that i didn't even think it could get worse but i guess it can. We can barely afford necessities with the minimum wage we get. This is just a game for the rich and the rest of the people are suffering due to the their greed.

Looking at this from FInland, I really appreciate Trudeau's strong stance on this. He's addressing Donald, but I think he's also speaking to the American people.\n\nA question came to mind - people talk about allies, but who does Trump see as an enemy? Has he been asked that? Something makes me think that in his head the actual enemy is people in his own country...

We dont want this either...Trump is a cunt with no refernce point to reality for the working people...he's gotta go! This trust fund fool does not represent the US people... he's horrific. Period. Apologies in advance to ALL COUNTRIES this horrific male (TRUMP) will inevitably insult. WE LOVE YOU BACK!! SO SORRY HE EXISTS...clearly he thinks he's looking for rating at all times...ugh

The people of Hawaii, I think, would love if Hawaii were a province of Canada. Why? Because Canada has the same values as Hawaii's people. Canada is full of people of good quality--people who believe in freedom, opportunity, good neighbors, and a peaceful life in a beautiful environment. Think about it Canada . . . send us a proposal.

You people of canada think this is just about canada and the well being it aint its about your politicians and ours and how fat there pockets get

As a Brit... I've been to Canada many times (the first time as a soldier in 1981) and of late in the likes of BC, I've fished there. Love, love, love Canada and the Canadians. I've been to America too, and I love it there also. And while I'm not always a good judge of people...I flatter myself I'm a VERY good judge of character. And oh man, have they ever got it wrong with this Trump fella. Now there's a bloke I would not like to find myself in a combat situation since he'd likely shoot me in the back and run the other way. I just find myself asking how on earth it has come to this. How can they possibly think that a person such as this is a fit bloke to lead their country. Hitler? Don't talk to me about Hitler America. Honestly, it would make you want to weep...

What makes Donald Trump think Canada would want any part of this shit storm current Trump‘s first term the Canadian immigration website crashed as people were trying to be out of here. Canada definitely has more sensible leadership why our country is led by a grifter who has turned a lot of sensible and educated Americans into zombies or should I say he’s like the big bully on the playground someone should’ve told Donald Trump that you get more flies with honey than vinegar

K, so you’re gonna stop the carbon tax now then, right?????? \nlol\nI didn’t think so. This guy is so full of it. He is the reason why we are suffering as a country. Not Donald Trump. Donald is just looking out for his own country. It’ll help them, it’ll hurt us because you’re gonna let it hurt us. We are already taxed in every humanly way possible. What’s next? I’m sure you’ll think of something to tax. \nThis man has ruined what’s left of Canada. Don’t fall for this rhetoric little speech people. \nOpen your minds and eyes!

Unfortunately, i think that trump (he does not deserve un upercase) dreams of becoming like putin. All that he is doing, everything in his language and actions screams dictator. I think that putin dreams of having the entire Europe to himself and that trump will actually want everything around the USA which includes ofc, Canada. That was their deal. I don't understand why americans are standing by just watching things unfold. It will not get better, this can only and will get worse. Sooner than they think they will find themselves trapped under these people, with no rights. It is really hard when you are already there to actually go back to democracy.

Don't worry Tariffs are paid for by Canada I really do not know if he is so stupid he believes that or he knows and does not care either way it is so dumb and hurtful to think otherwise. The last time tariffs like this were in place was the late 1800's and early 1900's. If anyone know this time it was the time of the oligarchs like Rockefellers Carnegies that road the backs of the everyday Americans making them the richest people in the world. Notice a theme here, I do!!

This guy, as well as every Liberal on earth are completely and utterly clueless and idiotic!! Trump isn't taking sides with Putin! Trump understands that BOTH Zelenskyy and Putin must sit down and agree to a peace agreement... THAT'S IT! Putin is ready.. but Zelenskyy doesn't want to even try.. for one simple reason.. MONEY! he knows that if the war ends, the gravy train called American money comes to an end... Billions of dollars is unaccounted for! Let's put our thinking caps on for just a moment.. where do you think that money disappeared to? Billions of dollars doesn't just vanish in thin air! So now that Trump is putting an end to Zelenskyy's gravy train and has called for the war to end, for people to stop dying and for peace to happen.. that makes him on Putin's side!?!? Good lord .. if this were Obama or even Biden getting this deal done in the same fashion, the media and these same liberals would be calling them heroes! They would be up for the Nobel Peace prize! And liberals wonder why they lost so terribly in November!!!

Why Us people Vote for . Donald ,,, He is not fit ..He need to go hospital..he has mental issues I think... But it s a big mistake of us voters I think ??

while trudea claims to care about the drug smuggling to americans who does trudeau think these tarriffs will affect the hardest\nthe drug addicted poor of course\nthey will suffer the most\nso trump and trudeau are combining efforts to cause more grevious harm to people with problems in this case drug problems\nits american cia that supplies these drugs to americans along with the dea and local police forces\nthe supplier of drugs can not also be expected to stop the flow of drugs to americans this is the real reason america is so devestated by illegal drugs\namerica is truly at war with america\nnow trump is in direct war against the american poor\nto increase their pain\nits a christian sadistic its sadism christian style\nthey call it tough love\nthats idiocracy\nits full blown sadism

I’m a dual citizen of the USA and the UK and have been so disgusted by Trump, he projects evil, he’s smarmy and egotistical. I just don’t understand how many of my American friends act like he’s right up there with God, I just can’t fathom their thinking. It’s all about taking ownership of anything he wants and he bullies until he gets what he wants. I’m sick of people saying Pres Zelenskyy needs to apology to Trump, Zelenskyy did nothing wrong, he was calm and polite. Vance and Trump immediately went in on the attack, both bullies! Then to moan about Zelenskyy offending the Oval Office by not wearing a suit. Have they looked at Musk lately? Don’t know what he’s wearing but it ain’t no suit. During war times leaders often wear combat clothes to show they are with their country and soldiers. I must say I wouldn’t be upset if anyone popped him off! He does need to go.

Any idiot who still thinks Donald Trump is doing a good job, then I have serious doubts about their critical thinking skills. Today I listened to Donald Trump lie and gaslight the American people, and the spineless Republicans in Congress cheered. What traitors they are to the American people.

I'm an American from Texas. I'm just so UPSET that TRUMP was voted in! How is that possible? It's hard to think that the American people are so ignorant! Buy into CHUMP TRUMPS BULL! He is an IMPOSTER, A FAKE!

I don’t think that Justin is in any position to be giving economic advice to other people. ? Canadians are taking out loans just to pay for basic needs.
