Let me guess the mistake he made was not paying taxes

Why are they living in China but pretending to live in Canada? It seems like it is helpful to Canada if anything. They are paying for empty homes and spending money on all of these immigration fees. \n\nI don't see how this is problematic for Canada. It seems like they are trying to scam China somehow. Are they evading taxes in China?

These Chinese did whatever that were in disposal to fraudulently enter here and abuse the system while real Canadian immigrants stay here and build this country and pay half of their income in the form of HST and income tax to grow this country, Canada. They don`t even bother to pay tax or learn basic English and still Canada accepts them.

why do we let them in when they don't even know how to speak english? SERIOUSLY.... they don't pay taxes and they use our benefits.

These financial INCENTIVES are PULL FACTORS that draw them here. No wonder they are pouring over the borders looking for handouts. Who pays for legal aid, translating fees, public schooling, job training, food stamps, house subsidizing and uninsured hospital stays? Tax payers who’ve been paying in for years. So yeah.. that’s why they’re concerned...

I watched the whole thing and I still don't understand why some Chinese want to be Canadian citizens if they don't want to live here? Like what's the point? Do they want to influence political systems with votes? Do they want a convenient vacation place? Is it for tax reasons? Do they want an escape route in case China goes south politically? Why pay a ton of money for a citizenship if you're not in that country at all?

I am a legal American citizen and I do not get any free health care! I have paid into social security since I was 16. I have earned my social security over the past 45 years. I also have to pay my own legal fees and my taxes paid for my child to go to public school. I do not know of any other country that gives refugees or illegal aliens ANY money or services!

Trudeau is part of the UN Agenda by signing the migration pact he has given the UN total control of our borders. The UN will have the right to decide how many refugees will enter Canada the plan is to let in as much as millions within the next 10 years. Our culture, history everything we worked will be destroyed. Canada in a very short time wil not be recognizable. To pay for this massive migrant welfare scam the carbon tax scam will force us to pay more taxes which will do nothing for the envirmont. Trudeau has sold us out we have to vote him out to save our country from total disaster.

Indians are the only people who pay taxes from day one....without depending on assistance.

Why do refugees have access to social benefits at all? Do like Gulf countries, you can get work permit and work, but never citizenship, AND NEVER ACCESS TO SOCIAL BENEFITS, which are reserved to citizens only. They don't have income and don't pay taxes. Did the gouvernment ask tax payers whether they want to pay for the living of refugees in this country?? How the hell can someone justify this? Or should we say the lefty extremist gouvernment hijacks tax payers for their superior feelings?

How did he get $15,000 if he can't legally work everytime I see that border patrol show if they want to work without a permit they don't get admission it would also indicate he is taking peoples jobs who actually pay taxes the church should be liable as well for harboring a criminal the bunch of false prophets.

Tax payers are paying for illegals to live it up in hotels, how nice you treat your law breakers, am sure the tax payers are happy with that when they go working 40+hrs a week as illegals lounge by the hotel pool ordering food up.

Lies! When a citizen sponsors a refugee, govt or private sponsors-- health care free you said it. Canadian don't fall for these lies, yeah after 1 year they go underground and work under the table. What is provincial social assistance? Kids go to public school if they have an address. So see Canada, refugees get free education for their kids, and who pays those taxes, that's right Canada also, they get free medical. That video was pooh!

All of us hard working Canadians should stop paying taxes right away its not fair that we all work and they stay home laughing at Canadians pe make a stand dont pay your 2018 taxes pass the word

wow 15,000.00 in cash I'm sure no tax paid on that money. All in America that do the right thing pay their taxes.

Omg!!! Will they get room service too? Four Seasons? Here I am working 50 hours a week, went to college, pay taxes and my own healthcare from my employer then busting my ass and can barely make rent. Can I get a free hotel too? Where did we go wrong here.

Wow what a beautiful commercial once again trying to project the refugees at the expense of the Canadian tax payer ... how much to make this CBC ? What ever just add it to the crushing debt we will pay for years to come thanks Liberals!!

He still can't speak English! How long in the US. Now working for pay less than citizens, and paying no taxes.

trudeau is a lovely prime minister we have to be tolerant of the migrants they are nice people and the tax payer should pay for them to stay in hotels and they should be put in 5 star hotels to show our acceptance, and the prime minister said before they are more Canadian then ones born here as they choose to be here,  he is the best prime minister the country ever had I hope he stays on forever

you need a certain amount of money to live on for 2 years plus job prospect plus no criminal record a good edjucation to come here legally so Canadians that pay super high taxes do not need to worry about taking care of people that think they can just come here and exspect its people.to support them and there families .You cant get welfare for 2 years either.We need to keep Canada a.smart and wealthy country .Yes we can help some in very bad situations but we are.only as strong as our weakest people . We need the best to be the best.To many people.think they can just come here because they feel like.it and they think they will have a easy life.\nWe.dont want any blood suckers only.good hard woking people.If that isnt you dont come because you wont be welcomed .If you are a good person then welcome to Canada and help us build this country and leave the bs that you left where you came from becauae we dont want it here..\nthanku

If that caravan reaches US soil...I have no doubt they will go straight towards Canada ?‍♂️ then they will try to change our culture history and the housing market will suffer. Please protect our own citizens before others!!! Don’t get me wrong, I have a co-worker who came here in Canada legally and paid so much money to work here legally. No problem with that as he is contributing to our society and pays taxes. However this caravan marching towards US and most likely continue north will 100% drain our resources! First we need to provide shelter, food, clothing and expenses to live day by day. Let’s take on our own citizens’ homelessness issues (tent cities) first before welcoming those who just decides to invade other countries just because their country can’t provide...

why not just make your stay here legal? stop hiding, pay taxes, gain rights, live in a house and get a job. if youve been hiding in a church for 15 years. youre not doing your family any favors. just do what it takes to become legal. i know its harder said then done these days but its gotta be better then hiding in a church basement for 15 years. plus you need rights, you need to be able to call the police when theres an emergency with out fear of deportation. come on! one time i hit an illegal with my car. destroyed the back end. i felt so bad! i have great insurance and wanted to take care of their car, and make sure they got checked out at a hospital but they refused cause they didnt want to get in trouble. their car never got fixed.... even though I wanted to fix it! i mean come on people supporting illegal imagrants are puting them in danger. they need to be given a path to legal citizenship and stopped from entering with out doing so.

how much taxes do they pay? I was in California and they don't have to get a license but they drive cars with no plates on them. In taxachusetts i know a guy who got in an accident with a truck that was driven by an illegal...he did not have a license and they let him go...the company that owned the truck paid. They get more benefits than us and they pay no taxes. I was unemployed once and had no health care. every place I applied refused me health care so at the end of the year I had to pay a penalty for each month I didn't have health care. What penalty do they pay? I am discriminated against for being a poor white american citizen. This country is a joke and I wish I was never born here.

How do I get some of this tax money, I worked since age 10, at manual labor jobs paying taxes, now crippled and no assistance, No AISH nor CPPD.

As someone who is more liberal minded, I don't agree with illegal immigration (I'm also pretty fiscally conservative). I'm open to the idea of healthcare for all, I'm open to legalized pot (even though I hate pot), I don't agree with most wars, and I don't give a rats ass who someone marries or who makes your cake. But all those things are for CITIZENS. That CITIZENS should have. Not someone who comes here just because they think everything is free, don't need to learn English and probably not pay taxes. This is supporting something illegal. I wish democrats could stick up for this country, rather than certain demographics. I believe we would never lose again if they could do that. This is the reason healthcare for all cannot be talked about right now. We have people thinking they can come here and do nothing with how things are now. Imagine if healthcare was free.

tell everybody in Canada working work a little harder for your prime minister he's going to need more tax money to pay for the World vacation on your labor good luck with that Canada you are real good people

So if he has been told that he is being deported, so he moves his family to Vancouver to hide them. This brings his case to the bottom of the line. He stayed in Edmonton & continues to work there underground not paying any taxes, while his family takes advantage of Canadian benefits hospitals, schools & welfare. What a joke round them up & get them out of here as quick as you can. We don't need the cheats.

We are putting refugees in hotels and motels temporarily because we have run out of public housing and shelters....unlike the States we take care of those who needs help....I don't mind paying higher taxes if it means we have a better education system, health care for all, less crime etc and most of all a most just society....

This guy is an absolute moron. He spent $215K of taxpayer money on a vacation. He gave away $20 million of our tax money to the Clinton foundation. This government is also wasting tens of millions of dollars each year supporting the operation of abortion clinics in Africa. Aren't we also paying for the hotel rooms in which refugees are staying? This guy loves to WASTE or GIVE AWAY taxpayer money. He is the master question dodger and BSer. HE NEEDS TO GO.

*STOP PUTTING THIS GUY ON TO SPEAK FOR US, HE IS AN ABSOLUTE JOKE AND LIBERAL SHILL!!!* \n\nHE HAS TO STOP STOP SAYING WE HAVE A LOT OF ROOM UP HERE, HAS THIS IDIOT EVER LOOKED AT A MAP?!! LOOK WHERE WE LIVE - *A THIN LINE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE COUNTRY* WHERE 35 MILLION CANADIANS ARE HAVING TROUBLE KEEPING UP WITH HOUSING LET ALONE *AFFORDABLE HOUSING*\n\nIF THESE PPL WANT TO LIVE IN TENTS IN THE NORTH, FLY AT IT, BUT THE REASON TRUDEAUS FIRST LIE QHEN HE TOOK OFFICE, KNOWN AS THE *REFUGEE RUSH* WHERE HE USED LIES AND PROPAGANDA TO CONVINCE US TO RESCUE 35.000 SYRIANS FROM HORRIFIC REFUGEE CAMPS.... THAT LATER TURNED OUT TO BE AN *ABSOLUTE LIE* . THESE PEOPLE HAD ALREADY BEEN RESETTLED IN SAFE COUNTRIES FOR YEARS AND HAD JOBS, KIDS IN SCHOOL, AMONG THEIR OWN LANGUAGE AND RELIGION. \nThat was the 1st lie of 3 YEARS OF LIES, EMBARRASSMENT AND DESTRUCTION OF THIS COUNTRY BY A RADICAL ELITIST LEFTIST ISLAMIST APOLOGIST COMMUNISM PUSHING DICTATOR. IMAGINE FORCING ISIS INTO COMMUNITIES WHILE QITH THE OTHER HAND THROWING TAX DOLLARS TO PAY YHR MILITARY TO RISK THEIR LIVES AND FIGHT THEM IN OTHER COUNTRIES - WHO EXACTLY IS THE ENEMY? CANADIANS? AMERICA? \n\nNOW WE LEARN FROM LEAKED BORDER SERVICES DOCUMENTS THAT HES BARELY VETTED ANY!!! AFTER TELLING US THE STRICT VETTING IS WHY WE DONT HAVE TO WORRY??!!!\n\nWHY IS HE STACKING THEM UP AND SUPPORTING THEM IN MY COUNTRY?? \n\nTHIA IS JUST THE BEGINNING OF THE DAMAGE THIS DICTATORSHIP IS DOING . \n*AMERICANS , DONT BELIEVE FOR ONE SECOND BELIEVE CANADIANS ARE BEHIND HIM, LIKE YOUR DEMOCRAT PARTY, MAINSTEAM MEDIA AND CLINTON SYCOPHANTS ... ITS ALL LIES*

It's very easy to say I proud on my India and I love my India but the reality of life in India very terrible and very bad.\nNow the situation is like rich people getting more rich and poor people going more worst poor\nAnd in future India have nothing but increasing prices of Dollar currency & euro & pound \nmassive corruptions...cases &\nWe pay tax but we don't know where our tax money goes still we have dirty roads and no proper women safety & i shame to say this capital of India Delhi city is the rape capital city of India.\nIncreasing price of petrol desil & gas....Hindu & Muslims fightings.\nThat's why millions of people specially from north India and all over India want to go other country like Canada & never wanna come back & cool weather for Indians not a big deal if you ware three to four layers for four months that sets

Absolute BS! CBC propaganda bought and paid for…you guessed it, our taxes! Please contact your PC MP and encourage them to completely defund the CBC and shut the entire CBC down. Also ask them to include in their bill ZERO compensation, ZERO EI! We the people need to show these partisan leftist A-HOLES they’re going to pay BJ’ing lefty Trudeau!

It's a lie that refugees give back more than they take. Stats for 2011 show that immigrants take, on average, about $6K a year more than they pay in tax. The government mantra that immigrants pay Canadians social security checks after they have been here a while is bogus propaganda. Canadians may want to take people in knowing they will be a burden to taxpayers and that's one thing, we do have big hearts, but the truth should be told to the taxpayers who end up paying for it. Don't you think?

Why does he consider himself a refugee ? How is he working if he has no status ?? Can we see his tax return ??? This man is crying but he is working illegally and likely not paying taxes. Most immigrants come here following the right process.

AS A CANADIAN I WILL NOT BE PAYING TAXES ANYMORE UNTILL TAX MONEYS ARE USED BETTER

Hey, you dont like it, you know where the border is........ personally I'm sick and tired of being exhausted working to pay taxes which once upon a time went to my welfare and medical care, now our hospitals are weighed down by people like him and his mooching family mooches all of them. I want them out. They can apply legally. Trudeau may have you all thinking your welcome. No your not. People who have applied legally, been vetted and have something to offer are being kept waiting while the moochers are walking over the border. GET OUT. Soon we'll have an election and I guarantee the one who wins will be the one who stops this abuse of our system and our tax dollars........... and thats not Trudeau

At least we're not separating children from their parents when they arrive. Don't forget, many of these asylum seekers can become tax paying citizens!

A Disgusting Act of Parliament, against the "TAX PAYING CITIZENS of THIS COUNTRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As an immigrant, legal one, I feel sorry for your family and you but you have to come to the USA LEGALLY. I want you to pay taxes like I do and fees that the government asked me to pay back. You don't get a free pass because you have kids nor crying. Respect USA Law.

Haha. I see a lot of ignorance in this comment section. We treat immigrants and asylum seekers with a little more respect than the United States. It's not perfect but I rather these people have a place to stay while they are processed then locked in cages. I rather get more tax payers in the long run. Most immigrants and refugees pay more tax and work harder then Canadian born citizens.

After a 2200$ gross weekly pay cheque. About 1000 of that goes to federal taxes. Canada is fkd up!! Sooo over taxed for shit like this. Can’t wait to vote this clown out!!

we have 70 seniors who died this month from neglect being left in apartments on their own with no AC during the heat wave but people who just illegally cross borders deserve better than our seniors who have spent their lives paying taxes and helped grow our country. Cant have these people at risk of dying in their country but its totally fine to sacrifice our own canadian citizens though\n\ntrudeau is an a**hole

Trudeau's economic plan does not include plans for new factories and creating jobs and trade, instead it includes spending tax money and further raising taxes to pay for immigration. He is incompetent.

People who believe his BS should open ur door and invite the refugees to live at ur house and use ur money! \nAll the tax we pay benefits the people who don’t pay themselves. Goes to people do nothing, all they will be doing is sitting their fat ass in hotel paid by us! Room service included! People who support Trudeau will make Canada go broke! Keep it up! Support him! U will start to need pay ur own medical bills and school. Because all the “free” Benefits will go to refugees! Good thing they keep coming to spend our tax dollars or we might actually see something improve for Canadians.

*sikh people pay taxes guys*

Every Canadian should stop paying their taxes until this little fucker is gone. He is a complete moron.

The tax payers of our Country will be paying off the decisions of this Buttmunch for decades. Unfortunately that won't offend much of his voter base as they pay little to no tax to begin with. Trudeau was a mistake from day one.

I am so glad I have worked and paid taxes for 35 years to pay for these newcomers to be fed clothed and sheltered at the taxpayer's expense. Not to mention getting free healthcare services without ever contributing anything worthwhile to my country or paying a cent in taxes. Canada is going to end up like Europe...the garbage dumpster of the world.

Oh my God please bless the good people of Canada... Wake up you tax-paying can make Canadian citizens... Or don't

I think Trudeau has hit on something that surely will work in California. Gov. Brown should transfer the illegals from the deportation centers, unite them with their children and house them in the numerous hotels in Beverly Hills and Malibu. This would be a tremendous savings to the tax paying citizen. I am certain the coast-to-coast jet set limousine chauffeured celebrity liberals will jump at the opportunity to pick-up the tab. Plus, it will place the illegals who they champion over US citizens closer to them. Think of the diversity!!!
