Coming to Canada as a TFW, then expecting to stay here is an oxymoron. OUT YOU GO ! and do not blame it on the government of Canada allegedly not building enough houses here ! CANADIANS OF TIRED OF BEING GAS-LIGHTED.

As a Canadian who was born here and the son of immigrants. I can say to you that the problem is with the Canadian government. It has lead to indians being taken advantage of by unsavoury people. And the situation is contributing to the housing crisis here in Canada although it's. not the only cause. The vast majority of Canadians do not blame the people coming here. We would take advantage of the opportunity to come here too if we were in the indian immigrants shoes as well. Keep in mind this is a country of immigrants. The vast majority of people came here or are descendent of people who came from somewhere else.

I blame it mainly on the international student boom in the past few years. These frauds join bogus courses in bogus colleges. The entitlement and bad behavior of a few makes everybody else look bad. They are also not vetting them properly. So we don't know how many criminals have slipped through as well. To add to this these students have become so entitled now that they choose to protest and demand permanent residency. I have never seen non-immigrants from any country protest to get permanent residency. The main blame for all this finally has to be on the liberal government. You messed up big time and are not doing enough to fix this.\n\nAlso, why are parents of immigrants who get sponsored and come here being given access to social benefits from day1? Look at the US, you can sponsor a parents green card but that parent does not get any social benefits at least for a few years after they land in the country.

Why are they letting in illegal immigrants then? The government should blame itself for letting this happen, absolutely unbelievable... it's like they create problems and then complain. Trudeau as an prime minister of Canada is a absolute disaster ?

We don’t know who or what are within our borders ! I blame our government for this! They need to be charged along with this pos

India is also infamous for its Scam Call Centres targeting Western people.\n\nAnd now they're doing this? \nThey're also protesting in Canada, blaming the Government, demanding PR while entered Canada with *student visa* LMAO ?

So why blaming and deporting international students? It was not their fault. Why still allow illegal refugees and throw out people who came through the right channel. Why is everyone forced to live and compete for resources (home, job, food, road, etc.) in few cities, and yet the rest of Canada is vacant and wild)? If you can survive winters in Toronto, Winnipeg, then cities, homes, and jobs can be created anywhere outside big cities. Fon't be fooled by the government they are not working for you. They are working against you

Don't blame the people... and blame your government policy. Government should brings those people who can help shape a better country instead of those refugees. The problem that I have seen is that - We accepted far more refugees than the genuine individuals. We chased investors/skills people away and we pay for those refugees with no background check and they lived on our finance system. Canada should look after their citizen first before dumping money into warfare(F35), Ukraine (a war can't never be won)...more dialogue instead of sanctions, lower the taxes so we all can live and pay affordable taxes. Better health care system where one don't have to put on a waiting list for a family doctor, waiting 8 mos or 3 years for a specialist. The system now is broken and will take years to be fixed.

I believe both our government and the int'l students are to be blamed for this mess, our government wanted to make money and students wanted to get PR BUT now both are paying the price, very unfortunate !!!!

imagine coming to a country paying high amount of college tution fees (as the international students pay higher amounts than local ones) as well rising costs of house prices,taxes only to be cheated with a illusion of dreams. I wouldnt blame the indians alone though i dont support the border crossing. the government who allowed even small institutions to exploit the students are to blame when they took their money and then blame evrything on them. you are forgetting these people came to Canada legally and the goverment and the locals have benefitted and now you blame them. why?

Can we tell something the people who came from India they paid a huge amount of money for studies , unfortunately so many students didn't got the pr , but here millions of refuges they came to this country from different nationalities didn't pay any single penny, but still they have so many grants from the government even came with pr as well, so please don't blame only Indians there are a lot of other migrants as well.

As FRENCH, I think it is more an issue with policies set by both governments!!! You know you bring students IN and why don’t you build houses and encourage construction???? In France, many students (mainly Africa, and French departments like Guadeloupe, Tahiti or Martinique) come to study there (for free and we are proud of it!!!) BUT - unlike Canada - we do NOT have the same issues as Canada (our healthcare is NOT under pressure and our housing prices haven’t really increased that much as compared to Canada for example!!!) to me, the students are NOT to blame!!! It is the fault of the deciders (at different level) who have FAILED to set the right policies!!!! The schools are also to blame as some (not all) are so obsessed with making profits out of the higher international fees, which by way, subsidize Canadian students!!! So in Canada (not in France or Germany), the money that allows schools to function come from international students who BRING LOTS OF MONEY for the Canadian economy!!!! in France, it is different as the universities are FREE and are fully subsidized by the French government… but yes;) you have to speak French fluently to attend them!!! \nSo dear Canadians, do not blame foreign students thanks to whom your universities thrive and remain existant!!! Without them (namely the Indians too), the Canadian universities will struggle to find money and funding! Remember, the system in France is TOTALLY different!!!!

Instead of addressing the main issues which were housing crisis, cost of living rise and shortage of jobs, I am not sure why these people are so derailed and blaming people who are legally here. If the government could not provide for housing and jobs why did they invite so many international students and immigrants. If CANADA is so tired of immigration why are still people with no skills at all are being accepted as refugees. Please ? don’t spread hate.

I am an Indian and its shameful. They should be deported. They have no right to stay in Canada nor demand anything. Make Canada great again! We’ve had enough of you people. I’m so Sick of these Punjabi people, I blame Trudeau and his government for this mess. They have destroyed Canada.

I have been living in Munich since 2021 and I've never experienced any unpoliteness from locals. I came here with 0 German and first year I spoke only English. I'm spending a lot of time and effort learning German. And it'd be great if the government supported learning it. But I'm not complaining, because it was my choice to move here. Nobody promised me that it'd be easy. Regarding friends, it's not so easy to find new friends as an adult even in my home country, so I'd not say that Germans are unfriendly. I can't blame Germans, they already have connections like friends and family, and many of them don't need new friends. But you can try your luck with other expats, many of them also want to find friends.

Yes he is right! lots of Indians are not friendly and do not greet the customers! They make you feel uncomfortable! but Blame the government is allow all this ! You can't blame them they came with Liberals allowed them to come! enough said! Harper Said Trudeau was not ready but everyone hated Harper in the east for wanting to stop the burkas! now enjoy your Indians! You got what you voted for!

The government of Canada is to blame. I don't have an issue with Indians. I have an issue with Islam.

Of you invite immigrants to fill a demographic hole that has been forming for 30 years you need to provide incentives to companies to build anywhere but Toronto. The government has neglected this and so now tens or hundreds (500) thousands of migrants have landed in and around Toronto because that is where the jobs are. Immigrants are NOT the problem, please don't blame them, they are just looking for a better life. Its the poor planning on the government's part that has failed.

There is a problem, but the solution isn't blaming immigrants for coming here. The lack of investments in public services and infrastructure for nearly 50 years now is the reason we're here. Neoliberal policies by both liberal and conservative governments is what got us here, not immigration. Canada actually has enough wealth. It's just not being spent on the right things because it's being hoarded by the wealthy and squeezed out of us by the billionaire class.

ha ha just blame the government for everything, how clever.

I'm Indo-Canadian, and I want you out to. It used to be quality immigrants from India. The US now is taking them all (top CEOs, entrepreneurs, researchers and scientists there are of Indian origin if they aren't Chinese). But in Canada we're opening the doors to the worst of India - Sikhs and Sikhism (fanatical bearded towel heads). You won't be happy here eating crap from food banks and living crammed in small flats. I blame Trudeau and his plan for more Sikhs and having them throughout the government agencies including police and defense, a severe terror risk to both nations.

There's enough blame to go around. Mass immigration to countries that simply aren't prepared to take in all of these people is the problem, and the policies of the current Canadian Government, for the record, I'm not Canadian so I'm basically just putting an idea out there, it's seems to be a recurring problem in other countries around the world, so this is going to continue until things change, not just in Canada, but around the world...Good Luck!

Trudeau’s dad gave place for these North Indians but these people are assuming they are born Canadians. Senseless students if Canada can’t allow to accept us then we as Indians have no rights to question the government. If this place is full then try to look for other countries but wherever u North Indian goes then u will surely spoil the name of India. Your poster clearly says as stolen land. Answer for that. Stop beating around the bushes. Like the horse eyes are closed and it runs straight, like that only you senseless people are just running without reading the laws. You are flooding into Canada without doing any research about how work permit works and for what skill sets will the Canadian government give or extend work permit. You people come in with all documents forged through the agency and u believe the agent and come here and then blame Canadian government.

Now Justin will blame indian government?

You have raised the number of students, their working status, and the employment authorization for students' spouses as a cause for the housing problems in Canada, particularly, it's negative impact on affordability. This is factually true, However, there are two sides to the housing affordability equation, which are the supply/offer on one side, and the demand on the other side . If we need or require the affordability equation to be balanced, we need to deal with both sides of the equation. Furthermore, and regardless of the issue of foreign students, and their spouses, the lack of offordability will not significantly improve, as the supply is the accumulation of many years of deficit, due to bureaucratic, regulatory reasons, and the lacking, or the deficiency in housing policy, at all government levels, and all related taxation, budgeting, financing, and general economic policy adopted , or omitted in dealing with inflation, interest rate manipulation by the Banque of Canada, inadequate competion issues, investment in main street, instead of the Wall of Bay Street, political sanctions, and tariffs, etc..This immigration issue needs to consider the demographic, and labor needs of Canada, while in the same time, or in tandem, prepare for the required housing supply, and other needs, and requirements in term of reviewing the rules and procedures, pertaining to integrating the professional immigrants in their professions instead of excluding them from professional organizations such the medical, and the ingeneering, professions and so on. Many of such professional resources are driving cabs in Toronto, Vancouver,and Montreal. So to blame the housing crises on the immigrants only, will not define completely the housing crisis, and may not help to solve it.

The blame goes to the Indian government which has not provided a clean, healthy, economiclly, socially and politically secure and over all properly developed country for their people. This has forced them to flee from the country and away from the squalor, corruption, siocially and economically under -developed circumstances.

Canadian government is responsible. Can’t really blame Indians for coming to Canada in mass numbers. Canada doesn’t have the housing or jobs for everyone.

Ya, blame your government.

Blame YOUR government...not the innocent 20 yr old so called immigrant trying to make a life for themselves....

I’m so Sick of these people, I blame Trudeau and his government for this mess. They have destroyed Canada

An excellent coverage. It’s amazing that these people come here to study and now holding Canada hostage for their long term objectives while studying was never their goal. Canadian government is to blame for this whole mess.

How is the government failing immigrants? Why move to another country if you don't have money to begin with? If your goal when moving to another country is receiving governement checks then you shouldn't be moving countries. They failed themselves by not adequately preparing themselves for such a big move in life. Moving countries costs a lot of money, doing so without proper funds is just foolhardy and they are to blame, not the government.

Why are all these Indian people all of the sudden starting showing up in Canada and US? What’s wrong with India? I thought they didn’t like Canadian and Americans? Blame the Indian government?

This is an honest video and I like that. I moved to Canada in 2010 and I moved back to Europe in 2021, so I am a Canadian immigrant and citizen now. I personally don't blame the Indians, I worked with people from India and I love a good tikka masala. Only Trudeau is to blame in Canada. But in India there are people who scam your Indian students, telling them they could go study in Canada and then become citizens and this is why now Indian students are protesting, because they realize they have been lied in India. So Canada is not to blame for this incident. Students must understand - they come to another country just to study, then go back home. And everybody must understand - when you move to another country, you must learn the new country culture. The Canadians must not adapt to the Indian culture, the Indians must adapt to the Canadian culture. I remember when we came to Canada they told us that if we do a crime, we would be deported back to our country. And now so many people do crimes and nothing happens. This is wrong. My point is - the main blame goes for the government, but some blame goes for the new Indian migrants too.

I think a lot of things get laid at the feet of government. Certainly not all the criticism is deserved, but this is.\nThey let things get out-of-hand and damned anyone as 'racist' who objected, or even commented, on their out-of-touch policies.\nI also blame the Canadian people for allowing ourselves to be intimidated by this pack of World Economic Forum idealogues.

Check out the bill spent and wasted by the government, don't blame the stranger, in stead of the government's failure. Every day, Canada is wasting precious taxes on many fancy but meanless programs. Looking at the health insurance system, looking at the railway service, have newcomers made it worse? In contrast, Canada needs more medical doctors, canada needs more reform and change. Being rational, Canadian society.

Deport all immigrants. Trudeau government is responsible. He is directly to blame for letting in too many immagrants.

Why are you blaming indians , if you want to find content pick something else, who is too blame Indian pple or your government, bcos it knows that Indians are no danger to your country and hard working , worry about yhe refugees that your govt brings from islamic countries, the keep reproduce like psg, blame ur govt for funding billions of tax payers money to ukraine , there are no jobs here, there are lots of things going wrong , and your just back of only one topic, too many Indians,

The governor of Canada is doing this as a result of backlash from citizens being over ran by migrants because the government strategy to secure the next election; in the worst economic situation ever. I blame the government who should have foreseen this exploit of migrants & undermining of tax payers during the post apocalyptic cvid build back.

I don’t blame the people that immigrated into Canada. I blame our government for bringing them in at unsustainable numbers. Modern slavery does not benefit anyone. \n\nWe need to end temporary foreign workers. \n\n\n\nWe need to end the scam diploma mill international students. \n\nWe meed immigration to fill skill gaps and actual job shortages. Bring people in as permanent residents and eventually citizens. \n\nI don’t want millions of second clsss people in Canada. It’s evil.

Most of these problems are global, so how much is really about the government? It's happening everywhere. It's also a very socialist to think the government is both responsible for the economy and has the power to fix it. The big global corporations are playing bait and switch to get you to blame anyone but them.

Is it really wise to shift the complete blame to indian immigrants, shouldn't government have a share of the blame too after all it's your own immigration policies you exactly know how many ppl you letting in and you happily except their money to keep your economy upfloat but when the things go south start blaming the Indians completely. Yes i admit there are too many Indian much more than the permissable number but why tf did u grant them visas and accepted their money in the first lay. A highschooler with avg maths score would tell u there would be give demographic shift after looking at the immigration data. I think it's a complete incompetency on the part of government, they should have been more strict and mindful about the immigration number.

Don't blame Canada. The only fault Canada made was to become too open to everyone and everyone took advantage. Blame your recruiters for giving false information. Canada looks different now, environment, behaviours, it is very sad. All citizens are losing their rights. What gives people the right to protest when they are not even citizens. You all expected too much and the moment something changes you protest. Have respect to the country that let you in and respect the citizens. ???\nAnd to the Government of Canada... please monitor your officials and all employees.

Too many Indians today bring scam businesses, organized crime, and try to impose their culture here. I blame the government for not screening immigrants properly. It gives a bad name to the honest people.
