Lived and worked in Canada from 2002-2007, in Toronto from 2004-2007 as an immigrant. I have Canadian citizenship, passport... Returned from Canada to my country of birth in late 2007. Those 5 years in Canada were the worst 5 years of my life, even then, when I was there in Canada - it wasn't as bad as today - today it is much worse (there is now a homeless camp five hundred meters from the block where I lived, it wasn't there then). Here, where I am now, I do not have a permanent job and a stable income, however, I live much better, much easier, with less effort, and most importantly, much healthier and peacefully than in Canada. I never even thought about going back there. Despite the false propaganda (because the Canadian state makes a lot of money from immigration - in order to legally immigrate to Canada, I had to spend 2000-3000 for administrative costs and show $10,000 in cash when entering Canada, plus a $1200 plane ticket) that Canada is one of the best places to live, my experience is that it is one of the worst places to live (and I have lived in both Germany and Cyprus and in my native country which has been devastated by Western sanctions and NATO bombing. Never in the 16 years since I left Canada have I thinking of going back there. I'm sorry, my experience was extremely negative.

The immigration problem is only part of the problem. The liberals are the problem Justin Trudeau needs to be removed from office These immigrants are taking all of the Canadian citizens money.these politicians need to be held accountable. Everyone of them is guilty of treason for not taking care of the Canadian citizens first.

in pakistan about 70 to 80 % of people mostly families who were lucky to get canada immigration since 1990s till date have taken it with open arms just to obtain the citizenship of canada and then move elsewhere around the globe! . a large number of people move to USA or Europe or mostly hottest gold mine Dubai! people have least interest in Canada for sure but the gigantic power of Canadian passport is nothing less than of ALADIN GENIE LAMP!!

School has been a back door for over 40 years. I’ve talked to immigrants that love Trudeau, they say they will vote for him when they get their Canadian citizenship because they owe it to him.

Simple answer for mass immigration: future votes for liberals. They don't care about Canadians or the quality of life. The crime is through the roof, it has become a third world country.

Nailed it just dispicable with immigrants. Born and raised in BC we get called 'white privilege'. This will never get better Trudeau and his minions don't give a shit about Canadians.

With a US election this year, prepare for that shit to go down and why are all these immigrants security guards they’re literally going to start conscripting people for war and erasing old stock Canadian history

It’s very sad and sick. What’s happening to people in Canada? It shouldn’t be happening they have to clean it up. I understand people fall in their lives but they gotta realize they need to not give up on life. That’s what happens now. With all the migrants they’re bringing in majority of them Are OK but they gotta bring in people that wanna work learn a trade and work for the lives. This should stop immigration for now. Our system can’t take any more of the stuff in the software for the Canadians that worked hard all their lives to deal with all this and stuff for themselves.

Have Canadians literally forgotten the videos of our pm welcoming new immigrants into Canada - supplying them with winter coats? Welcoming the parents and innocent children? Meanwhile...He knew that he would be expecting all of those immigrants to receive the MED. Truly sinister.

The only ones a feel sad for that are homeless is my fellow Canadians ! For no fault of their own this Trudeau administration has brought on this sadness and no disrespect to the immigrants that have recently arrived they were used by Trudeau his selfishness was to hopefully used them for votes. I’m hopeful it will all backfire on this pathetic leader! And they all go back home they will be better off!!

Trudeau is done forget my vote , bringing immigrants into Canada without regard of the high cost of living is careless and taken space from Canadian citizens for housing, job etc is madness

Why do we keep saying international students? Helping to mask the very clear disproportionate Indian cohort that has walked into this country for immigration purposes (not sure who decided it should essentially be all Indians, but I don't think it was the Canadian people). Let's stop being shy.\nAlso, a word of warning against Indians...once they get into low level management positions, guess who they hire at the exclusion of everyone else? That's right, other Indians.\n\nGood points on the 'labour shortage' and the connection between this mass immigration and GDP!

JT has knowledge of preschool. He and his government do not understand economy. They push existing Canadian to hell. Canadian needs to get their live via jobs and living. Mentioned jobs do not have shortage of resource. International student and mass immigration got those jobs since they accept any low pay jobs. As mentioned by speaker :young / elderly Canadian are out of jobs because of them. Canadian have to turn to welfare and add spending to Canadian government. Young Canadian also lost their chance to good future. \n\nImmigration also have false certification to get jobs. Once they got those jobs. they continue to make up stories and get up corporate ladder. They only hire their own culture. They force Canadian out of jobs and they producing unqualified product. Corporation uses stories to hide all of these and they blame that failure is caused by spending,.... Canada is coming apart. People did not notice Canadian companies and culture are being DESTROY by immigration. It is a MUCH BETTER PROBLEM.

Look who the people are that steal cars and ship them to Africa. The incompetent Liberal/NDP gov't should never have let in immigrants this last five years. Canadians should come first. We shouldn't continue to print money and go into debt.

I couldn’t care less about what new immigrants think. Canadian born people are struggling to get by.

the immigration levels we are experiencing are like a smiling no test to low income Canadians.

This is exactly why immigration is a scam run by the Canadian government. This has been happening since 2013 and has increased tremendously since pandemic

Excellent reporting ? ?. It's time for Canadians to push back on these policies. Contact your local MP, and comment on every post you see regarding immigration and voice your opinion.

Mass immigration for sure destroying Canada, so is the outdated, poor school system, health care, dummy politicians and leaders. I sometimes wonder if Canadians really has modern skills left to survive in this 21st century to call themselves as developed country.

BC changed their labour laws to where an employer only has to give 2 hours of paid work in a day and they call that a job. Saskatchewan changed their labour laws to where an employer only has to give 3 hours of paid work in a day and they also call that a job. If employers would get the same kick backs and perks for hiring Canadians then there wouldn't be a need for hiring temporary foreign workers and the illegal immigrants and providing them with housing that Canadians, especially veterans, don't get. Plus the federal government allows China to buy Canadian businesses and all they have to hire is 1 Canadian and after that they can bring in all the Chinese workers they want. That is what needs to be stopped andCanadians would hopefully get a full time liveable wage job and not become homeless.

HORRIBLY!! I'm still trying to figure out their BS numbers for this LASTEST quarter? It MUST be the IMMIGRANTS!! What Canadian has money right now? All I see is *parked* cars at home....EVERY night!

Labour shortage? Why have I barely been working for 6 months then and I’ve worked in new home construction for 20 years, they’re now giving our union work to illegal immigrants while Canadians sit at home

I as a natural born Canadian I want 0 immigration as they refuse to blend and are discriminators refusing to associate with Canadians unless they want their citizenship. They abuse of our system to which they have not contributed. They want special rules. They are the cause of unreal real estate prices and steal our jobs which afre subsidized by our money. Thanks FEDS.

Labour shortage? ? we have enough homeless people without jobs already. Canadians do not want to be exploited with cheap labour thats the problem. Pay canadians according to our economy and there will not be so many homeless people and more of these jobs will be filled. The government makes it an excuse to keep bombarding canada with more migrants as to keep the employers from having to pay more and keep labour as low as possible. Of course a new immigrant is going to do whatever job they can get, because they do not know the Canadian economy. You see houses with 15 people in a 3 bedroom apartment, 25 people in a house. I always wondered why certain houses had 6+ cars and I kept seeing multiple faces.

Most international students who come to Canada are more educated than most average Canadians. So don’t say they’re low skilled immigrants. Canada just doesn’t have enough technical jobs for them. They’re forced to work for such minimum wage jobs.

To me it's just an excuse to replacing true Canadian. By mass immigration will lead to social unreat. What we really need skill and talents immigrants not low level skilled immigrants where local can fill it up.

I am permanent resident and I tell you they would rather hired immigrant that don’t speak up when they get mistreat than a Canadian who knew their right. I been immigrant to Canada for 15 years and it seems like things getting worst as time go by. Government need to put immigration on hold for 10 years to fix the country.

West has no idea about third-world countries. Please check out another Canadian Jayant Bhandari & understand what's going on before it's too late or may be it is too late. Many skilled immigrants will leave Canada for better life elsewhere if it stays on current path & all welfare free loaders will be left behind.

kind of funny seeing immigrants finally seeing how canadians been experiencing life!

I can't help thinking that it is part of a bigger plan since the Liberals are part of the WEF and they are totally not even caring about something that is so blatant. Maybe with the assisted death agenda and Canadians not able to have children it is a way of bringing in immigrants from third world and war refugee countries.

When u start entering uneducated and non specialized people even though they don’t know the language to communicate they come here knowing that Canadian gov will them money to live and accommodate what we call uncontrollable immigration what is the result a chaos

Someone has to say it. I will. F**K Immigration!!!! The needs of the Canadian people should be first and foremost, ANYTHING else is secondary. Agree or disagree???

Immigration was fine up until the Liberals decided to become globalists. Before that all immigrants were united under the Canadian flag. The Canadian experience, being Canadian, and honoring the Canadian tradition were all real things. Then the Liberals came along and pushed Canada into becoming a multicultural state where everyone became a hyphenated Canadian. Fast forward to today and the hundreds of cultures in Canada are all in Silos, caring more about their original homeland over their adopted home. They've even brought their ancient disputes with them. It's a sad state of affairs. Ultimately designed to divide people, kill the Canadian identity and keep Liberals in power indefinitely.

Does the data also apply to the northern territories or provinces which are very cold? Why dont we talk about the indigenous community whose culture and ecnomomy was destroyed by canadians and there resources snatched away, atleast the majority of immigrants come here, work and pay taxes.

I'm a 1.5 gen Canadian from Toronto, immigrated here with my parents when I was 5, I'm 24 now and making over 100k annually but I cannot afford to buy a home here. Accepted a job offer in Pennsylvania because I can actually afford to buy a home there, settle down and actually have a life - goodbye Canada.

We dont need immigration to increase population we need to cut cost of living and alow Canadians to be able to afford children of our own .we should cut immigration completely. The Canadian government is selling out Canadians to line there pockets fact.

I think that the way for less immigration Is that Canadians have more babe's. That's the only way because If not the population pyramid with turn and the less young population will have to work for the majority of old population like the crisis that South Korea and Japan are now. Thank you.

Immigrants are a attack on Canadian culture .

WHY DON’T YOU MAKE JOBS MORE ATTRACTIVE WITH BETTER WAGES FOR CANADIANS?\nWHAT THE GOVERNMENT IS DOING IS HELPING CORPORATIONS FILL JOBS THAT NO CANADIAN WILL TAKE AS THE WAGES ARE SO LOW TO PAY FOR THE CURRENT COST OF LIVING.\n\nBLOOD SUCKING MONEY HUNGRY CORPORATIONS ARE THE ONES BENEFITING FROM THIS MASS IMMIGRATION.

I welcome, as a born Canadian, immigration. My opion is that you stay. Permanently. Dont come to Canada, work then leave. If you don't want to live here, don't come.

Liberals say they are bringing skilled labour yet those lines are as long a 4-9 buses, Skilled workers don’t come in lines of 300 people like that. Those are cheap workers exported from india into our canadian borders, I respect skilled hard working immigrants not these cheap mcdonald’s cashiers or lame losers. They are taking those jobs from are kids. This is a serious issue but trudeau continues to ignore all this because it is better to stay quite and talk about supporting T***ns youth.

It's funny to see that you don't know anything about CANADA's job market. Go out and learn what CANADA is before making these videos.\nFirst you should know that Canadian Companies don't hire anyone for a high skilled job. Even if you are an amazing engineer with 20yrs of experience. They want even skilled people to get canadian experience by working entry level jobs.\nAnd you are crying about how immigrants are applying for entry level jobs. First you should ask your companies and government why it is wasting the talent of people they brought by asking them to do entry level jobs.

Totally agree with multiculturalism being a serious issue for native Canadians. Why?? Because immigrants are not respecting the values of Canadian forefathers. Immigrants are also bringing their conflicts to Canadian soil, as oppose to dropping their issues as soon as they enter Canada. Canadian food banks and social services are IMO services new immigrants should not be able to access for at least one year in Canada!

Canadian immigration system is a damn scam lol

Canadian immigration policy and law need immediately attention

Massive immigration is being done on purpose. \nTo destabilize Canadian society, in preparation for a dictator.. \nI'm telling you this fact, a dictator is coming. \nSlowly, life in Canada is becoming a hell of a hole .\nFighting between races different classes of people. \nMost of today's Canadian culture will become meanless.\nWeak families unity or if any families at all. \nThis massive immigration is in preparation for a dictator to rule Canada.

Coz canada is not a country of innovators and entrepreneurs. More than 70% of canadians work in a service industry. So, what do you expect. I am an immigrant for close to 20 yrs. and still repent that why I chose canada. It fucking sucks

Real victims are these immigrants themselves. Canadian govt , Colleges and Agents sell them a dream to scam them out of their savings. These people grew up in developing countries saw Canada as a first world country hence they flocked.

As an IMMIGRANT from INDIA myself, I totally agree with this video ?\n\nThis stupidity of mass immigration by the government causes hardships for the CANADIANS as well as for the IMMIGRANTS too..!!
