Great I'm trying to move to Canada the long, legal, and right way, but these ppl gotta eff that all up! ?‍♂️

They going to learn a hard way, canada didn't worked out for me.

This is disgusting if you want to come to any country including Canada do it the right way legally!!! How long till we run out of money!! We have Canadians that can’t afford food and heat and rent. But we take in more and more. Take care of the citizens already here!!!!

The only way Mexicans can crossed over to Canada is because the US released them to our borders\n With friends like that,you don't need enemies. Nothing against Mexicans, hard working people.

What nutcase wants to flee from Canada to the US, and not the other way around?! Do they even KNOW how bad it is in the US in comparison to Canada?

They come to Canada because they know it will take years to process them, they get to live for free on the tax payers dime. Full medical and dental and housing as soon as they cross the border illegally. \nSadly, 10's of 1000's of immigrants that are trying to do it the legal way, have all been put to the back of the line due to the govt using all resources to process all the illegals.

wait they talk about how bad there home countries are but are in America now and are trying to cross Canada illegally? they are just wanting free stuff. I am Mexican and grew up in America but learned from my dad that said these people ruin traveling as a Mexican for every law abiding citizen because it makes people think he's illegal. he even got arrested by border patrol because someone called saying he was illegal but he was actually an American citizen who did everything the legal way.

39,171 unauthorized entries in 2022. Compared to the US number for 2022 of 2.76 million.\nThe atrocities that go on in these countries that are run by drug cartels and corrupted politicians should stop. No more should we accept mandates from crooked politicians who want to lock us down in our homes, shut down our business, and keep the children from learning in school. Being held hostage by the Biden administration and the Pfizer, and Johnson & Johnson drug cartels over the past 2 years is enough. \nTrudeau is a horrible person the way he lied about the truckers and slandered them calling them every name he could think of, seizing bank accounts, all because they opposed his political dictatorship over the people of Canada.

Canada way better than the US

The illegal crossings should be stopped ,They should not let illegal migrants Enter Wonderful Canada or Beautiful USA ,The only legal way that is valid visa given by the US Embassy should be used to enter these wonderful countries , Beautiful USA n Canada should control their borders ,God bless USA my favorite destination and also epic ,iconic Canada

Lmao CNN is covering actual news and current events. I mean, they dont care they illegally enter the US travel all the way up thru the US on tax payers dime to Canada... u r just giving Fox news the raings... we are in the end of days?

Well, Canada is WAY better than the United Sh**hole Of America.

Canada getting bend over in many ways

Immigrated to Canada many years ago as skill worker in the engineering field, and there were no opportunities in that country, Canada just needed laborers to fill out factories and people to do the jobs that the Canadian born did not want to do. I ended up working in my field in the USA, and salaries and opportunities are much better in this country. Americans are very practical, they just want someone with the right knowledge. When applying for jobs in Canada, employers were very obsessed with Canadian education and experience, but in my opinion, that was an intentional way to block immigrants. In the USA I was never asked for American education or experience, the interviews were very straightforward, very technical, they just wanted to verify technical knowledge. In conclusion, if looking for professional opportunities, the USA is much better than Canada, but legal immigration as a professional to the USA is extremely difficult.

How do these migrants kno where to cross in canada???? How do they kno about that entry way and where it is!!? Put up metal fences!! Wit concentrina wires!

I think some people are confused, I think that crossing is a legal crossing through authorities, he’s saying if you cross illegally through a different unregulated crossing then you will be arrested. Many people with legitimate cases will be allowed into Canada but it’s a lengthy process. \n\nHe’s also getting the lady’s bags because many who cross this checkpoint do have legitimate cases, if they’re already going to be citizens they should be treated that way unlike other countries who treat all migrants like illegals even while crossing legitimate checkpoints and separate kids from parents and leave them in unsanitary cells

I'm surprised taxes wasn't your first point as for most immigrants that's the most shocking thing about Canada is the insane amount of taxes we pay, as for the education thing I agree with our policy for example while I was studying Architecture a Syrian lady who came as a refugee had an engineering degree in syria in order for her to work in the field she needed a Canadian degree as she was knowledgeable she flew through the courses almost impeccably on the other hand there was an Indian civil engineer but he struggled in everything except the math, he confessed to another classmate that he bought his degree and was completely clueless, he failed out in the first year... in my mind its a good way to separate the professionals from the liars

Dang it , keep the hell put of canada . There are lots of ways to stop this-- among , employers charged, no medical of any type, renting,selling,housing illegals gets jail and fined , No schooling ,any employer found getting, aiding , goving jobs to illegals means jail time --- \nSuppose any of these measures will be used, after all, justin had c hinese p olice s s tations in our country without telling anyone --- this is the last straw with all these illegals.

Looks like Canada still needs to learn some lessons in this regard. Ask Italy, were complete swarms arrive at the coast dead or alive from the African continent. Helping people is ok, but it needs to happen in a structured way, so that you don’t destroy your own society. I’m from Belgium and just like any nation in Europe. Multiculturalism has been promoted since the 90’s. There is no way back, and there certainly is no room for racism because of that. However a society needs to be able keep it’s integrity intact. That needs to be decoupled from the emotional aspect.

I’m a Canadian live in USA !\nThere’s no way I would visit Canada is a S- - t hole!

In 2010 I had a one way ticket to Florida to visit some friends. At the airport they pulled me aside and said that if I didn’t come back to Canada within 14 days I’d never be allowed back into America again. I was traumatized and never went back. But here we are 13 years later and I can just walk wherever I want to go on this side of the world lol…but for real, this is sad. If you aren’t used to Canadian temperatures your in trouble. Hope everyone is okay. It is rough though, I was in a shelter for two months, but some families were there for almost a year because of the housing crisis. I’m not exactly sure how this will work. ?

The Canadian border police have to say that but they will let them in and care for them. I am a Canadian and I’ve had mixed feelings about it way back before I grew up. I’m 52 years old. These people are looking for better lives and there’s no reason that countries that have the resources can’t help them. I’m sorry I just feel like it’s our duty to take care of them. My family came from Europe in the war. If I was not let in here I mean my family I wouldn’t have this great life in Canada hope y’all can have compassion and we can all help each other.

Yooohooool canada is an open zoo, refugees illegal migrants, we will have more people workin in our groceries and fastfood chains, thats what canada wants, its probably way more expensive to provide free healthcare to them, if I was one of them geez i would go for it, meanwhile the rest of us taxpayers cant even afford roof over our heads, inflation and zero raise!

Enough is enough. Stop these illegal immigrants. Let them enter Canada the legal and the right way. I entered Canada and got my PR and citizenship the legal way. I expect them to do the same thing too!

What a joke this Country has become. Trudeau will let anyone in as long as they vote Liberal. \nWhy do we let this happen?\nWe should be looking after the people who come to Canada the right way.\nNow we pay immigrants to sit around and get houses while hard working migrants live sub standard.

good job canada show trump de way

Hard to comprehend the journey some of these people are on. Not only finding their way to the uS illegally but even making it to Canada illegally. Not to mention the countries before. Tens of Thousands of kilometers. The trauma they must have suffered to be this motivated I can't even imagine.

Once you get into Canada, free Welfare for life. Even if you get a job you still get access to all the services provided within for subsidization, etc. Government transit passes, subsidized housing, carbon tax funding, food bank access where if you have a family you get way better food than single folks (cakes etc.), lots of child support, credit to attend community centers (swimming pool, etc.), paid tuition and the list goes on.

Biggest difference USA has was more places to live every variety of climate you could ask for. It has way more opportunity because of the higher population. Way more jobs, way more national parks. They're extremely similar countries but I have to give it to the US is the variety of places to live. Canada may be bigger but most of it is a desolate wasteland. The only nice places to live in Canada are cities directly on the border. As far as how nice people are Canadians are just polite not always genuine. If an American is nice to you odds are they actually like you or they're someone you can't trust. But generally if a Canadian in nice to you they could hate your guts. An American seeing how Canadians act gives them a idolized view of who we are. If an American doesn't like you you'll know it and if they do like you you'll know it. This is the perspective of someone who grew up on a border town.

Is this a way to game the system where illegal immigrants in the US go to Canada for a while then come back to the US and suddenly get treated better?

F#&K CANADA, ITS A POS COUNTRY, WITH A EVIL SCUMBAG GOVERNMENT TRUDUM IS A RETARTED LIBERAL POS WHOS DESTROYING UR COUNTRY, SAY WHAT U WANT ABOUT AMERICA BUT WE HAVE IT WAY WAY BETTER THAN THE CANADIAN PEOPLE.....

Canada is such a wonderful country. If people knew the culture and the way citizens are versus America, they would be flocking the Canadian border.

I have mixed feelings about this. I feel like a total first letter of the alphabet-hole for not thinking of helping right away. When I lived in San Diego, it was a palpable daily reminder. Lots of people have cross-border lives. Family, work, home is on either side of the border. Now living up in Washington State, it's different. Here the border with Canada is all about preventing Canadians from stealing technology from us while allowing them to work for us. Some partners who come visit us often times get searched for technology. Like pen drives, samples, etc. It's a totally different story. Canada probably has less homeless than all of south America. It's an easy claim because literally, if you can't insulate your self in winter you go visit the great gardener Jesus and his weirdo multipersonality disorder. In south America, you just need to eat and not get eaten by things. So the result is that people survive way below the poverty line. Then, the big lie tells them that the US is better so they come over to eventually learn how the others found the three headed gardener the hard way. I feel like maybe if they got a tour of the country and learned how shitty it is to live here too, they might think twice about coming over. There are periods and ways when the US opens it's borders but it's looking like a real shit show right now. We don't have enough jobs and not enough houses to house everyone. At least in south America you can live in the family house and no one bats an eye. People help each other in poverty.

WHY don’t they go to another South American company, where they speak the same language? O that’s right, the USA and Canada have all kinds of Social programs. In NYC they are given hotel rooms, served three meals a day, even given laundry cards. O AND, they are given City jobs, uniforms included. KNOW of one other immigrant group that was treated this way?????

Canada sounds awesome for the immigrants now if they could all just find a way around the United States that would be perfect at least until America gets its head out of its ass and figures out how to regulate a border

What they don't tell you is like a year or two later a lot of these illegal immigrants ( refugees?) realize Canada is too cold and way too expensive..\nCost of living is going through the roof, Especially with food.\nIt so bad that many actually return to their country of origin!

This whole situation is untenable. It is devastating to the migrants that have to leave their homes and try to enter either the United States or Canada to apply for asylum. No amount of border protections or treaties or walls will solve the problem. And that problem is the political, economic, and social conditions in their countries of origin. In my opinion, Canada and the United States (more so the United States) need to step up to see if there’s any way to help politically and economically stabilize those so people would not need to leave their homes in search of a better life. Yes, it would cost money… But there would be definite dividends in the future as we would no longer have to invest as much money on our borders. I very much realize not only the complexity of the problems in Latin American countries, but also the complexity of what I am suggesting. But everything we have done so far has been useless, so we need to change our thinking.

I am confused.\nHow is that the U.S. is demanding Mexico DO something and stop immigrants from coming through Mexico's southern border..yet the U.S. looks the other way as immigrants stream through Canada's southern border??\nAnd I know this is a crazy question..\nWhy don't they close that road instead of having a wide open fence?

Why are the Mexicans leaving Canada for the US, when everyone else it seems is going the other way?

Please don't come to Canada, its way too cold here for you. Go to California or Texas instead.

Make it in legal way its unfair to the temporary worker, student, tourist who wait & pay at the immigration office just to get an approval when they arrive here in Canada they buy food, rent a house and work to sustained their daily cost of living!

Quebec (montreal): Medical care, any public services rude, irresponsive and bureaucracy sucks n complicated (example: people wait for uncertainty just to renew their driving license), THE CRUELEST THING IN QUEBEC INCLUDING MONTREAL IS MEDICAL SERVICES (my god reminds me of third world countries i have ever been in), they will just ignore you heartlessly even if you have RAMQ (quebec heath care coverage), u have to have family doctor n u have to sign up to get one IN UNCERTAIN TIME, some they get family doctor within 3 years, others 5,7 years so on so forth so uncertain, so if u dont have family doctor u wont get treated, and if u have family doctor u will hve to stick to where your family doctor works at only, and to get appointment at some clinic they will put you on wait for some days or even weeks if u get the availability slots for u, if u got emergency u will wait 8,10,12 or 14 hours in pain. I feel bad for montreal citizen i swear, they r so patient with all of this while the tax is one of highest in canada. \n\nNow for rental (apartment in general), the check is crazy long it takes around 2 weeks just to rent, if u r lucky u will get taken if u r not then the landlord will take others, the 1 year lease means 1 year, so far to my experience in alberta like for example, 1 year lease but minimum period u have to stay usually around 3-6 months n after that u can leave with notice to the landlord to vacate the unit. \n\nBut in montreal, u have to find other person to transfer the lease, n if u found the person like i told u earlier, the landlord will check the person n the approval/ disapproval is by the landlord. I had to stay for one year living like hell cause the neighbors freaking so loud n partying every week end night till dawn. Couldn’t even have good sleep for work, so I called 911 two times, the police couldn’t do anything, yet the landlord n the building management kept on saying that they gave warning etc to that tenant, but they didn’t take any further action toward that, n i know they dont care, they care only for money. When i started to file complaint to the TAL(quebec rental board, they r irresponsive, complicated procedures, n in the end they dont solve any problem, on their site said that renter or landlord has to retain lawyer, the hell they r there for then? \n\nThe apartment building is tiny, tight old, the wall is thin, u can hear everything from your neighbour upstair, downstair n on your side too.. \n\nMONTREAL IS ALSO SO DENSED AND TIGHT, the main road so tight with cars parked on both sides of the road to ways only one lane on each way, cos mostly apartment building they dont provide parking spot, so they have to park on the road side, i feel bad for the bus driver i swear, with snow mounting on both side of the road makes driving bus is just so stressful, almost every neighbourhood looks dirty, trashes, people littering every where. Im Not complaining but that’s what it is, im living in montreal currently for more than one year but im just gonna move out of here lol

why are you coming to Canada? there is no way you can afford to live here that would be any different from the USA

It's illegal to ask for asylum at a legal border crossing.\n\nThe only way to legally ask for asylum when crossing from the usa to canada, is to cross in this manner.\n\nAs per the safe 3rd country treaty.

bunch of fuckin idiots, why would you come to canada? At least in the states they enforce laws and let everyone defend themselves with guns. All we got here are homeless camps and frozen wastelands. Way to make this place even shittier. Personally I'd rather chill on a beach in mexico than deal with the homeless scumbags here. Even the whites here are either race traitors, bleeding hearts, or worthless drug addicts. This is not a good place to be.

No way Canada is better than the USA

It is due to the type of people Canada tries to lure, middle class, well educated who can pay at least $35,000 to migrate. \n\nThis type of person will get disapointed very quickly if they don't find exactly what they expect, in oposition of the type of migrant the US has been trying to drag, people who burnt their ships and have no way to go back.

Lived in Canada since age 1 . Left 1 year ago at 34 years old. I now live in Guatemala. Way better life but I miss Montreal a lot ...

I am Canadian. I don't know if Canadians are nicer than Americans. I have met many nice Americans. but I think Canada is way better if you are poor or middle-class just like every other developed country in the world. we work less, we get more paid holidays. in America, you work like a slave if you're poor .but the best country in the world if you are rich.

So why are these students spending so much money on an education which guarantees no future, I accept India is lacking in job creation but I can guarantee the amount of money you are paying just to complete your college years is more than what you could invest on private colleges in India and create your small scale buisness, like it's bullshit to live a miserable life in Canada, away from your family and not trying to put efforts in your own nation... I agree India is not Canada but it's way better if you are Indian
