The unspoken assumption seems to be that racism is a white problem. Yet across the years I have listened to Black and Chinese people express opinions which, coming from a white person, would have meant a day in court charged with the willful promotion of hatred.\n\nFurthermore, the young woman who has difficulty with people asking where she is from might want to consider the possibility that the other party is genuinely interested in learning more about her as a person. I am a white British-Canadian and am not in the least little bit offended when people ask me about my origins.\n\nIndeed, listening to immigrants and new Canadians share their life experiences and outlooks on things has gone a long way in shaping my own opinions as to how Canada can be a better country than it is now.\n\nCase in point; I have heard immigrants and new Canadians from nations as diverse as Jamaica, Trinidad, Nigeria, Ukraine, and the Philippines compare childrens' education in Canada with children's education in their countries of origin. Guess which looks better. Hint, hint, it isn't Canada.\n\nFolks, we need to be listening.

.. How did Dr Theresa Tam vote on Jan 23 2020 at the WHO meeting to deciding if a World Health emergency should be declared? Did she vote for or against declaring an emergency? .. This is what the Canadian public needs to know.

Canadian employers will use you abuse you once you are not needed they will dispose you like a piece of garbage

Canadians need to pronounce words like: leg, roof, creek, etc correctly, and call their grandmother a proper designation, rather than 'meemaw'. ???

How many more times do we need to have that fool prove he dose not care about Canadians.

Just wait till the weather gets warmer and the pandemic gets worse. \nIt won't be dozens coming in everyday, it will be hundreds or more!\nTrueDoe is breaking international law all while endangering the safety of Canadian citizens.\nHe needs to be removed from his position.

Blockade this crossing, those in the area now need to stand against this viral invasion. Can you imagine if real Canadians blocked Roxham Road and were arrested for blocking those possibly carrying Coronav...What a jokw we are under this muppet Turdeau, sorry Mr. Poopwater...sir...Sir Poopwater..directumly translated.

JUSTINE NEEDS THE VOTE'S THAT'S WHY HE'S LETTING IN ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS PLUS TOO FINANCIALLY BREAK CANADA BY GIVING 20 YEAR GOLD CARD MEDICARE EVERYTHING IS PAID BY CANADIAN TAXPAYERS ### MAKE CANADA GREAT AGAIN GET RID OF JUSTINE TRUDEAU SHOULD BE HELD FOR TREASON AND HAS NO CLUE HOW TO RUN CANADA

Canada has a LUNATIC at the helm!!! Canadians DESPERATELY need a REAL LEADER now!!! Maxime Bernier is the Leader that we need to make Canada great again !!!! justin is the epitome of EVIL!!!!!!

Wonderful reporting! I am a Canadian in Greece and finally the Greek government has realised they need to close their borders from the invasion of ILLEGAL MIGRANTS. It is like a war zone on the border now. You can learn from the Greek experience. It is destroying the islands where there are still 60000 illegals camped out. With this new threat it is even more important! Canada needs to wake up!

The Canadian government has a Youtube Immigration Channel. I sub to it just to watch and see what kind of content they are putting on there. Today's video is about the borders being closed, I asked in the comment section about Roxham Road if it is open and are they scanning for viruses and vetting. Click on the link and see their answer... I use a VPN and set it to Los Angeles so they wouldn't know I was in Canada.\nhttps://youtu.be/qEOa4q_81A0 \nGood god, we are all in trouble, this fiasco needs to be shut down immediately.

I’m so sorry for all of you precious people of Canada! You’re our neighbors (the state of Tennessee USA here) and we see you’re having to put up with everything the Democrats want to do to us if they come into power this November. (The only way they could do that is voter fraud, which is exactly what happened in what we call the mid-term elections in November 2018, when some House of Representatives and Senate seats come open in the two-year cycle halfway thru the Presidential elections - that’s how they won the House back) \n\nThat poor displaced family, though. Bless them; officials need to get to the bottom of where they’ve been, where they actually have citizenship, and attend to them properly and GET CANADIANS HOME! President Trump needs to go up there and jerk a knot in Mr. Trudeau’s rear end. (That’s an old country Southern saying; don’t overthink it please!?? We finally have a President who may be a little bristly, but he loves America and Americans and he is working hard for us!)\n\nBut seriously, wish you much success and although I can’t monetarily, our greatest weapon is prayer and my armor is on (Ephesians 6)!!! Keean, you’ve stepped up to the plate because you love Canada and want to do what’s right by her! You’re doing a wonderful job - “absolutely fantastic” as my YouTube friend Mentour pilot would say. So we hope the situation gets resolved quickly, because this virus is taking its toll on everyone in more ways than one, and in ways we’ve not even seen yet and have no way to predict. Keep looking up though! And make sure you belong to Jesus Christ . Amen!

And with each one they will continue to further be a burden on Canada and our taxes will need to go up to pay for their welfare. Soon our CPP wont be there because of the new Canadians who come here illegally. Our government should be taking steps to close that border crossing point.

I loved this. I have always wanted to move to Canada and wondered about race relations. More importantly I think it is important to be honest about the struggles we all face everywhere. Nothing in this made me want to not visit Canada or think that ALL Canadians think a certain way...it was just information. Not all information is information you need to act on, but it is important for information to make you think.

I live in the United States, and I’ve always thought that Canadians were not as racist as Americans. Thank you for sharing this with your audience. It’s a conversation that we need to have regularly.

I find that the majority of the Muslim people who have been brought to Canada. Are very rude to Canadians, and seem to want to change Canada into their controlling and abusive ways. I think it's disgusting that they can come here, and try to change our system and take advantage of Canada's services. We need to stop these people from coming to Canada, as they've proven already, that they are not willing to conform to our Canadian way of life! If you don't like it, get out of Canada!!!

They should be talked to like this these people are trying to take over this country they don’t want to live in peace here because there all bringing there third world bs they are not trying to become Canadian at all they want Canada to become what they left there countries to begin with so how are they refugees an need help then if they want Canada to be the same as the war torn countries they come from

While racism is real, there are certain people from some religious dicatorships in Canada spying on the free people of this country and making people uncomfortable too. there are those who want to push their beliefs on all Canadians and there has to be a balance in terms of acceptance and inclusiveness. I find many times people also play the race or discrimination card to push their beliefs and ways of life on others while I have heard them for example swear at and judge Canadians for example who don't cover up their hair or wear mini skirts......that is also discrimination and judgement and is also 100% wrong, even though they may be doing it quietly or in their own language. There is sometimes (besides obvious cases of racism of course) that there are 2 sides to the story! People that come to Canada also need to respect its values of respect for all, not just ask for it for themselves. While a lot of wonderful people come here and have the utmost respect for Canada that is NOT the case with those pushing their beliefs and particularly religious views on the rest of Canadians making them feel like outsiders I have heard many stories about.

Sorry times up you need to go good job immigration canada she was more than aware not like it was a year over due years and she old enough to know it was illegal but yet she gets canadian money noway sorry do it the proper way like everyone else .whats good for the goose is good for the gander

Canada need read the history, the real Canadian is indianll.

LOL Am Canadian born and raised here LOL ?????? That don't make you Canadian true Canadians are Natives so there is no need to be racist towards anyone we are all human beings and we all deserve respect if you lady don't know the history that is your problem but the guy on Video is right we are all equal and we all pay taxes ??????

Hello, I just watched your video. Three years after you made it. I hope you are still with us and a very belated Welcome. Many people throughout the world seem to have so many stereotypes about Americans. Whether it is good or bad there typically is some truth in a stereotype. Overall it seems like you are enjoying yourself and no matter what there is no place like home. I would think no matter what your current situation is you still miss Canada as I would miss the United States if I were to move to Canada. \nA couple things you mentioned in the video were not correct and as with anything there may be a little truth in the matter but yet still incorrect.\nThose who do not have health insurance are not charged or taxed $150 monthly. There is a provision in the affordable care act (ACA) that penalizes certain individuals who make above a certain dollar amount. The amount is either $150 or $300 for the entire year. I concur any monetary penalty against anyone for not having health insurance is outrageous. I could be wrong but I believe this aspect of the ACA was never implemented under President Obama and it was indefinitely suspended or revoked by President Trump. I also feel like I need to address your thoughts about the United States all about war. I believe the American people are like most other people and want peace and civility. The government and major defense contractors have differing opinions at times. Of course there is plenty of people who are war hawks but they are in the minority. Most of us are absolutely sick of war. We currently have been at war for almost 19 years. That's six complete world war 2's in their entirety. \nI think you were being awfully generous when you said obesity is on par with the rest of the world!! Unfortunately there is far to many fat people here and the problem is only getting worse because the media says be happy and proud you are fat. Celebrating obesity is absolutely insane and it sends the wrong message to young people. If a close one is fat of course I love them but I also tell them privately that they are a walking heart attack. It's more than OK to accept someone the way they are but as a friend or family member you doing them a disservice by not mentioning their obesity. \nI'm sorry if you feel I'm being to harsh or critical. I think it is a wonderful thing to share the world's longest border with such a great nation as Canada. I have always thought Canada was like the United States fraternal brother or sister. We are very much alike with a few beautiful differences that distinguishes from one another. It doesn't appear that you upload videos hear anymore but I hope you get the opportunity to read this. Thank you for coming to the United States and I love all my canadian brothers and sisters. Take care.

They don't live in Canada, they don't scam from Canada, they merely need it as insurance for possible problems in China. They would never live of Canada's welfare, which cannot be said about the majority of Canadians. What is the problem other than envy?

I need an english test to apply for PR after coming from an english country and going to an english Canadian University successfully.\n\nBut some get in and can’t speak English. How did they get in. I’m stunt.

Having experience with Canadian travel by car and commercial truck as a Alaskan resi. I assure ALL that it is set up solely on Revenue trap! Canadians are awesome polite and respectable people, but the Government SUCKS!!! (Think British Queenie Worshiping Commie Prick Gov. NEEDS THEIR ASS KICKED) Past time to BOW-UP Ca-nooks, ya pussed out and gave up your GUNS. Are Ya Men or Mouse EHH! Illegal Immigrants Suck, Most countries wont put up with invasion pushed by commies. Except for political BS Democrat's!

Sorry for asking but I don't exactly get the point , I mean what was the benefit to the immigrants.. ? If they wanted Canadian Residency then why not stay in Canada and if they want to stay back home then why need Canadian Residency??? ?

Anti Muslim grows because of a) they come from non democratic nations into Canada that is supposed to be a democratic nations but democracy is taught from grassroots in order to succeed - Those who have grassroots responsibility for sucessful integration appear to be failing their jobs employment in the system - Muslims does not integrate assimilate apparently - All Mosques - in Edmonton refused receipt of the training manual workbooks - how Canada is Governed Eugene Fosey / Senator New Foundland - some Muslims report that they needed this material the day their plane landed in Canada - Canadians (reasonable to believed that Muslims were trained in OHS - Charter Rights upon entering Canada immediately). 5 Miracles of Dunkerk Crisis intervention Forest Fires .

This has become ridiculous in Canada and if we are not careful we are going to end under Sharia Law. Canadians need to become bold and nasty and start putting it in writing to MP.

...they don't respect Canadian laws, so go the F**k bak!!!! We need to house our homeless, own backyard...go the F**k bak!!! their safety my arse...really go back!!!!!!!! u made the choice to cover your f**king body wear yor skin does not breathe and how the f**k do u eat...go back if you don't like our laws

Cleverly this videos talks about "how much" and not "how many" refugees get Social Assistance, then uses Vietnamese legal immigrants (the hardest working people in Canada) as an example of how quickly they become self-supporting. The truth about refugees aftermath is that, the large majority of refugees in Canada coming originally from third world countries, live on Social Assistance for several years, some for life, knowing that the Canadian government will provide for them anything they need (Ironically there are very few statistics on this matter and no statistics at all since 2015, when the current government was elected).

if you deal with me, a canadian (albertan tbe) girl, i dunno i might just hug ya i need it rn

ALL SHOULD BE DEPORTED INCLUDING ALL THE ASYLUM SEEKERS FROM SAMALIA. THEY NEED TO HIRE CANADIAN CITIZENS TO TAKE THIS PPL OUT.\nHE HAS NOT BEEN SEND BACK TO CHINA AND REVOKE HIS CITEZENSHIP

*THIS IS WHY WE NEED TO ENSURE IMMIGRANTS HERE ARE COMING TO PRACTICE CANADIAN VALUES! YOU SIMPLY CANNOT HAVE A COUNTRY THAT HAS THEM ALL WITHIN POCKETS OF THE COUNTRY, ALL IT DOES IS DIVIDE PEOPLE!! IN CANADA WE PRACTICE CANADIAN CULTURE, HISTORY, THE RELIGION WE WERE FOUNDED ON, MORALS, LAWS... WHEN YOU BRING IN PEOPLE EN-MASS WHO HAVE TOTALLY DIFFERENT VALUES YOU GET POCKETS OF PEOPLE THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY WHO WANT/PRACTICE SOMETHING DIFFERENT. MULTICULTURALISM LIKE THAT CANNOT WORK!! NOW AS THE NUMBERS GROW - AND WE SEE THOSE EUROPEAN COUNTRIES WHO TRIED BEFORE US, LIKE THE UK, WE CAN SEE OUR FUTURE AND ITS NOT GOOD!!*

That white Canadian guy needs a slap he doesn't no the difference between the two beautiful religions the racist guy been brain washed by media its not true

Live it before you spout your mouth...Crap News CBC

Canadian need their own wwyd

Canadians: America needs to get it together ??‍♀️\n\nCanadians:

They need to understand no more, Canadians no more want them.

Wow, you're Canadian and get treated with this kind if respect and the government claims to vote for them because our Canadian lives are valued and they look put for our best interests? Has anyone really looked at all the Damn loop holes we have with *SO MUCH FREEDOM* its actually backwards! but they word it in such way and make it sound so confusing where we think they do have our best interest. REALLY ALL THESE RULES ARE ACTUALLY KEEPING US CONTROLLED. we do need the government on some matter to ensure we live by *GODS* rules not to originate their own rules to control us by. Canada is pretty darn good for this backwards talk, brainwash, diabolical plan. Look at the school or educational systems let lone bigger issues hidden in pages of pages by the hundreds of thousands rules we MUST LIVE BY. We all know its for their own personal benefit. We are only on this world for a short period of time we all want wealth ect. We all can have it. So many ways to fix the earth and how we coexist with eachother in peace and harmony. But TILL THE WORLDS POWER OF LOVE OVER COMES THE LOVE FOR POWER WE WILL THEN KNOW TRUE PEACE!!

I have worked my whole life, have children and live in a country that is unaffordable now.. :/ Can some country please take me and my family in and give me a free passport, healthcare, drivers license, job, social assistance/housing (welfare) and everything to set me up. Please, I beg you, Me and my 7 family members will all give you liberals free votes. Trust me, I need it more than the people who have paid taxes in your country for 4+ generations, fought wars and developed this country. PS IM CANADIAN!

I am actually shocked by people in the comment here. All talked like you knew a lot of things of immigration and citizenship. Loll but many don’t even know the first thing, the difference between permanent residence and citizenship. Immigration jail is referred to PR required living time in Canada. PR don’t have a Canadian passport and only citizens can have it. Once you are a Canadian citizen, you don’t need to live in Canada for a required time. China does not allow dual citizenship and that is why they try to scam the system to make up the living time in Canada.

Canada wants and needs people like that family who are here only to make a decent living and do not want to make trouble for us canadians...we are not racists but we don't like the muslims because they keep asking for special favors that are denied for us canadians and that is getting on the nerves of the population and Trudeau is the one responsible for this because he's the one who invited them over and now we are stuck with them because they are making trouble for us like they do all over the other countries who greeted them!!!But we intend to correct the situation by voting Trudeau and his liberals OUT and start cleaning up our country so it's livable again!

Islam is not a religion. It is a culture of death towards infidels this is any person not an islam. This is a death culture and we will pay the price for being such a peace loving society. Just look at what's happening in Europe now\n Canadians need to pay attention to the end results in Europe.

Trudeau is the one to blame ...Muslims will rule Canada in the near future..Canadians you need a leader like Trump to fix this problem....Trudeau is a baby ...I think He consumes too much Marijuana.....Shame Shame

YES .... THEY WONT LET REPORTER FILM OR TALK ABOUT IT IN CANADA IN TORONTO ANYWAY...BTW WRONG GUY TO ASK.!!! RADISON HOTEL @ VICTORIA PARK AND HWY 401 .... WHY $$$$$ THATS WHY !! WELFARE WHAT A JOKE .... JUSTIN TREDEAU IS A PAID PUPPET DESTROYING CANADA !! DO SOME DIGGING IF YOU WANT TO ONOW THE TRUTH ... HE IS ALSO UNDER INVESTIGATION for tampering with a criminal investigation committing fraud the Ethics Committee has already investigated him twice he also gave terrorists who's kills Americans and Canadians a cash settlement of over $1000000 this guy needs to be put in jail also doing a back door deal to sell Auto on transit snv he is a criminal

We need info how 2 move permanently 2 US since Canada is no longer livable.taxes and property prices is simply unbelievable. LiberAls collect taxes and spend it on ISIS & refugees families here. We hardly make 4k per month while my neighbor refugees from ISIS gets 12k per month from Canadian government that's 144k per year. I was blown away when i heard it. Advice to all skilled people just leave Canada it's not for us.

A Canadian Immigration judge will notice immediately two main things about this guy: 1- No English having lived 15 years in the US & 2 - No specialized skilled labor or higher education. If he ever gets asylum granted, it will be thanks to his kids who will eventually assimilate unlike he ever did and because Canada needs to grow its population that is among the lowest in the world at #43 with 11 per 1000. The countries on that list with lower birthrates than Canada are mostly small islands or tiny countries like Liechtenstein. Why? Because of the high cost of living and raising a child, #1 country is Japan.

citizenship ceremony? lol, how easy to get canadian passport. they don't even need to speak english for it.

I sure hope Canadians see what Trudeau is doing to their country. He needs to be voted out at the next election. Don't vote for the charming ones anymore.Go with common sense not emotion.
