Canada and the US share the longest border in the world. It's not just illegal immigration coming from Canada but the US as well. Both countries need to co operate to stop this. Also, illegal immigrants can not claim refugee status if they are escaping from a developed country. The Americans should educate themselves on Roxham road and how this a major entry point between both countries

What happened to your channel? Last year 34,000 foreign nationals entered Canada FROM the USA,plus thousands of guns and tons of drugs.These are facts,along with just 0.0002% of opiates entering the USA ,your own Doctors ,China and Mexico dwarf anything coming from here...oh and ps,Trump had nothing do with border enforcement last year ,which I am sure you know.Keep the right wing fear mongering and talking points going

they can’t just take a bus from canada to the US without going through US border control. Same at airports, US border control has check points in Canadian airports.

When TRUDEAU goes along with his entire incompetent woke Liberal party, guaranteed these number will drop dramatically on both sides, just like they have now Biden is out.\nCONTEXT: Canada population: 41 million --- US population: 340 million\n\nStatistics source: Canada-Gov irregular migrants webpage, (rounded) data represents ONLY illegal migrants that crossed FROM USA TO CANADA last two years (that they KNOW OF):\n2023 = 162,000\n2024 = 130,000\nTRUDEAU encouraged this by allowing them ALL to stay that POS\n\nStatistics straight from USCBP-GOV-STATS-nationwide-encounters web page (rounded) stats of ONLY illegal migrants that crossed FROM CANADA TO USA last two years (that they KNOW OF):\n2023 = 189,000\n2024 = 198,000\nBIDEN encouraged this by allowing them ALL to stay that POS\n\nNow look my fellow Americans, WE ARE NOT VICTIMS of CANADA. You KNOW we're not. STOP PLAYING VICTIM, it's grossly unmanly. We cannot hold Canada solely responsible for those ENTERING the USA illegally FROM Canada, without also taking likewise responsibility for STOPPING folks from illegally ENTERING CANADA from USA side. WE MUST BOTH STOP AND DEPORT THEM ALL. We'll BOTH be far more successful if we coordinate and cooperate towards the same mutual goal: TO DEFEND OUR OWN DAMN BORDERS AND STOP POINTING FINGERS LIKE WHINY LITTLE BABIES. WE ARE ALL UNDER ATTACK BY THE SAME ENEMIES. LET'S ACT LIKE IT.

The illegals have to enter Canada first at some point and in some way and it's obvious that Canada has dropped the ball on it's own border and immigration controls and is just pointing the way to the US border . This is a big reason why relations with Justin Trudeau and Trump have gone sour . Why is the New York Mayor and the Governor not being arrested ? Going to need a wall around New York .

That could be anywhere from 330 to 2700 miles to NYC, depending on the point of entry from Canada.\nHard to absorb the fact that immigrants still are trying to get into the US, it's as if they're following orders.

Canada is beyond a joke at this point. Complete clown show. I have zero faith they will do anything, considering they've welcomed hordes of migrants with open arms themselves.

Canada RCMP and Border Security Agents successfully stopped 83 million kg of cocaine being shipped through the USA from Mexico drug cartels for sale on the city streets in Canada. Estimated street value is $84 million dollars (Canadian). With the addition of military drones, drug sniffing dogs, X-ray scanners of all vehicles crossing the border check points between the USA and Canada, plus the addition of the Fentanyl Czar to Canada's Opioid Crisis Prevention, drugs are being stopped at the Canadian check points. Now, military drones and police are stopping the trafficking of humans into Canada from foreign countries.

Guess this proves Trumps point! Get off the couch Canada.

Just saying. All the crossings points in canada like roxham roads and all were one way in..all of undesirable being shipped up north from the south..16000..lets say you sent about 3 millions in those buses being drove in vermont/maine..so pretty fair as far as deal goes..we can send you those 3 millions if you want..our country been shh since we had the nafta agreements.

Plenty of migrants cross in the other direction, from the US into Canada. At one point, when Texas first started shipping migrants to New York City, New York City started bussing migrants up to the Canadian border. Google Roxam Road.

At this point I'd have to say the Canada military are dropping them off to Cross

By the way, it's interesting that you're all getting your knickers in a twist over irregular migrants, most of whom wind up working and supporting you at some point (or their children do), when (apparently) you seem to believe you have the same problems with fentanyl coming from the true north. I think that drug thing might be more pressing if it's crime and chaos you're worried about...(you get less then 0.2% of your fentanyl from us, by the way and fewer then 2% of migrants to the US come from Canada. On the other hand, an estimated 70% of illegal migrants to Canada come from the US, right up there with the fentanyl, actually. Oh and we keep having to deal with all the illegal guns from you, too.

The shoots holes in the leftist talking points that it's unnecessary to enforce the Canadian border. Leftists always ridicule every common sense idea Trump has. \n\nThat's another reason to add Canada as a state. We'd have full of the border and could tighten the VISA laws of people flying into Canada.

You know how you fix the problem. Anybody harboring in any way or helping in any way should be put in jail for a minimum of 3 months instead of putting the criminal in jail or the illegal, you send them back to Canada. Or Mexico or wherever they came from and the person that tried to help them has to pay by sitting in jail for 3 months or longer. A second offense, 5 years, a third offense life. They'll stop helping at that point

Aaand they get the money to do this , from the help of the United Nations to do this .. We need to focus on this ... Most would never be able to make it , let alone a flight on an airplane, if they weren't given the mone at certain points... Be it the Darien Gap route, or through Canada.. This is planned and facilitated by the UN ..

My father was an American, I would never move to the USA . I used to enjoy to visit. However I find today that it is too dangerous. Love coming home to Canada I always makes me want to kiss the ground \n There is just a different level of decency there.\nThe quality of education is so much higher for your children. \nI have many friends who've moved to the states, and at this point they're looking forward to coming back to Canada.

As a Distinguished engineer in the US If I moved to Canada I’ll be a taxi driver and yet a point to Canada wtf? Why wasting talent is a good thing…Its seems Canada is advertised as 5 star 3 star hotel lol

Both the US and Canada are illegitimate countries under the illegal occupation of the whites of European breeds who bred like rats after illegally occupying the US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand and used the wealth looted from India and elsewhere to establish themselves in those new lands after decimating the natives.\nThey maintained racial segregation until the 1970s and supported apartheid in South Africa until the 1990s and non-whites continued to be racially abused and get killed until today.\nHope the Mexicans and the natives will be able to drive them out and restore civilization and revive the past glory of the Olmecs, Mayas, Teotihuacans, Toltecs, and Aztecs. The US also has nukes pointed at India from Diego Garcia and refuses to return the Chagos Archipalego to Mauritius.

Another reason which i would like to point out here is just sheer chaos in name of diversity, beleifs ,un civic behaviour etc.that sorry to say my fellow indians bring. Classic example being Canada, how many unnecessary propogandas and chaos is their because of indians for instance khalistani movement. Why would any country would like to live with that

One important point you missed is no proper heathcare in canada. India is far, far ahead in healthcare. Healthcare is very important for many people. Especially if someone wants their parents to stay in canada.

Very conservative video, coming right in time for the election. Immigrants are always an easy target, as this video shows well. At this point - Feb 2025- a lot of condos have been built in Toronto and guess what, nobody is buying!! The economy dipped with the pandemic as it happened in many other countries! When I immigrated to Canada - and I had nothing then, it was impossible to even think of buying a house, under a Conservative government. About 10 years later I was able to purchase my first home and am doing well, thank you. So are the builders in this beautiful province, close friends with the premier. I wonder if this video is independently produced - I doubt it! There are plenty of people happily living in Canada!

Compare how many mass shootings you had in the U.S. compared to Canada. Also, we are allowed to own weapons if you want (particularly for hunting). But we do not make a big deal about, nor are we paranoid to the point we need to openly carry one Up here, it is mostly police and Brinks guards that open carry because it is part of the job.

The post-war world order is now over. It's time for Canada to drop out of NATO and NORAD (what is the point of a defensive strategic alliance with the only country in the world that is openly threatening you with annexation?) and expel all American military and government personnel in the country. Canada, Mexico, Europe, Australia, Japan, South Korea etc need to form a new strategic and economic bloc oriented toward the goal of breaking America, just as we did with the Soviets when they were the largest threat to global peace and prosperity. Sadly, it is more likely that we will allow the Americans to divide and conquer us... literally!

Canada will give concessions at some point. Like regular war, in a trade war everyone is hurt. But Canada will go into a recession unless it appeases America. And America can do this because Canada has the better deal currently.

One guy screwing up the world economy another looser keeping a war( Putin) going ? trump has no respect for Trudeau ( neither have most Canadians). But yes lets where all if this is going . At this point it’s more a hype about what trump announces . We can only react to it when it happens . For sure is that canada put to many eggs in one basket . For us the transport is short across the border but Europe would definitely benefit from our resources. The challenge is that trump is only in for 4 years , after his departure prices will stay up ,as history has proven .

The fact is that .2% of the fentanyl coming in to the United States comes from Canada. .2%. point two percent. And this warrants tariffs??

Could Western Europe, Canada, Australia, Japan, Taiwan all get together and have a talk with Uncle Sam? I think we need an intervention at this point. Help!

Game on. Time to bankrupt Mexico. It is a failed narco state. Canada? Nice people, but their woke leaders have neglected their responsibilities to the point over half of Canadians want to join the United States. I think the Canadian political class has lost control of their country, and like the US Democratic Party, they are out of touch with the common sense citizen who just wants to work, take care of their families and live in peace with their neighbors.

Hmm, well canada can stop the illegal immigration coming through into the US. Trump will drop the tariffs. So simple. But they ignore the main point

My daughter is 5 months pregnant and lives in Canada, she hasn't even seen a damn Dr , and she can't because she can't get insurance , I have to send her money weekly for food, because she can't get foodstamps.\nI'm worried sick because she lost her 1st child by a miscarry and it was horrific, if she had had prenatal care maybe she wouldn't had lost the baby , \nMy point , I'm scraping money together toget her home so she can get medical care, and those women get it handed to them for free, as soon as they storm our border.\nYea, I'm pissed

These immigrants arrived legally and were granted legal status. In Canada, individuals must live in the country for five years before they can apply for citizenship. So, why should they be deported? I could understand if they had entered illegally and bypassed the proper legal process, but that is not the case here. Why would Canada adopt policies similar to those of Trump in the U.S.?\n\n-------\n@derekpam7149\nMy point is straightforward: these individuals followed the legal process to enter Canada and were granted legal status. They have adhered to the rules, and deporting them after they’ve done everything correctly seems unjust. Comparing this to Trump-era policies in the U.S. does not align with the values Canada upholds regarding fairness and due process. I’m asking why Canada would take such an approach when these people have complied with the law. Could you clarify what part of this seems complex to you? Perhaps you need to revisit your studies and review elementary education, as this is taught in schools. Canada is a 'land of immigrants.' It's part of history, long before you were born.\n\nI have no issues with deporting individuals who entered Canada illegally. However, these rules should not apply to people who migrated to Canada legally, are working as doctors, nurses, engineers, and so on, and are simply waiting for their citizenship. Your message is clearly irrelevant and discriminatory.

Definitely fair stop it day one not raisist but rather a reset. These folks need to realize the fast lane is closed now you will have to do it like everyone else is waiting years and longer. Mexicans force the jobs to be cheap being the rates down way down not just in America but in Canada making the Americans and Canadians homeless job less the last 10 years was a big blow to so many people but no one is talking about it. Deport reset restructure point blank.

She always tries to sound like there is an agenda against India. Check timestamp 3:07. There is no agenda, let me explain why.\nThe rejection rate is a better measure than rejection numbers or visa fees. And I'm pretty sure that India has a lower rejection rate compared to many other countries. It is the sheer volume of applications that contribute to this. Even 1% rejection on 100k Indian visas is a 1000 rejected visas. While a less populous country may have 10% rejection out of 1000 visas which is 100 rejections. So, in % terms, India fare well despite having higher rejections.\nFiring shots at Kosovo, Cuba and B Faso is a cheap shot and unnecessary to push the point of passport rank. All countries have a right to determine who they allow into their country with lower restrictions. And they are under no obligation to open the gates to anyone. It is also common knowledge that the newer cohorts of Indian immigrants to the West are a bad representation of Indian society (best example - Canada). Hence the rising anti Indian Immigration stance. Immigration is a privilege and not a right. I hope that the Indian community understands that the visa rejections are a lesson and not an insult, and that they learn from this and become better ambassadors when they go overseas.

You seemed to have conveniently missed a few more main points. We, Indians, put ourselves down.\n\nThey are;\n1) Out of 100 Indiands traveled abroad either for tourism or business, only 50 returns home, and the rest try to find jobs to live there.\n\n2) Many Indians forge documents or produce fake documents to get visas.\n\n3) Where the Indians go, they bring pan and pan parag items and spit sll over the place, especially the North Indians. South Indians are much better.\n\n4) We, Indians, can go any lower to get a job abroad at low pay. So, we put our own grades down.\n\nThere are numerous examples I know of. Let me cite a few below.\n\n1) In one of the Western countries, a few years ago, a real Punjabi brother and sister who staged fake a marriage, got a marriage certificate, and other documents only to migrate there. The government eventually found put and deported them.\n\n2) Canada deported a few hundred Gujarati students when the US border security found them not speaking in English. On investigation, it was found that they all came with fake IELTS certificate.\n\nThere are many incidents we get to witness the day after the day. So, we can't blame other countries. It's us who made us very cheap in the international market. Because of those Indians, the entire innocent, honest, and talented Indians community is affected.

Thanks for the detailed video. \nI have 2 questions;\n1. Should your spouse who is in Canada do this application or you are the one to apply from where you are? \n\n2. At what point does your spouse in Canada put an invitation letter?\n\n3. And do you apply separately for a child you are visiting with.

I came to Canada from India as an international student, worked hard to pay my tuition, and earned permanent residency through the express entry points system. It wasn’t easy—I had to balance studies, work, and adapting to a new country.\n\nI understand concerns about immigration, and yes, some take advantage of the system. Part of the issue lies in the aggressive marketing of the “Canadian dream” by certain colleges and recruiters in India, exploiting vulnerable people and leading to misuse of Canada’s policies.\n\nI also recognize frustrations with those who protest after failing to meet the points or hire only friends instead of deserving candidates, even if they’re from my country. But that doesn’t mean we’re all the same. Just as Hitler and Anne Frank were both Germans, nationality doesn’t define character.\n\nIndia is incredibly diverse, and judging an entire group based on the actions of a few is deeply unfair. Experiencing racism simply because of where I’m from is heartbreaking. I hope we can move past stereotypes and see people for who they truly are.

I live in Canada and work as a journeyman electrician earning $100k/year. That salary means nothing with such high taxes and high inflation. Like, what’s the point of working full time? \n\nMost of my friends have already left Canada and gone to the States where housing is cheaper, incomes are higher, taxes are lower, and job/business opportunities are plentiful.

I never see Indians or asian people begging for money , they are not homeless or self induced drug addicts , most of the immigrants pull their own weight , quit whining about how they dont belong here ,they didnt come here and kill the natives pillage and plunder the resourses, we learned absolutely nothing ( Europeans) coming from Europe , kill the natives and steal the land , oh so charming ,your proud of that ? On a positive note we in Canada didnt enslave the black people,we do welcome people who have no where to live had there homes bombed blown up family and friends killed . You get the point . I lot of immigrants open up there own buisnesses maybe some are jealous of their prosperity?

The problem is not international students themselves; the problem lies with students who cheat the system to become international students.\n\nSecondly, no international students are promised permanent residency (PR). There is a pathway to PR, and the government should ensure it is followed. However, if a student's study or work permit expires, they must leave as they declared when applying for the permit. Canada understands that individuals from developing nations may not want to return home, and that is understandable. But the proper process must be followed.\n\nI agree that the Canadian government has made mistakes. However, international students also took advantage of the system, which I can understand. The government should never have allowed international students to obtain work permits so easily. They should have been required to complete their studies, secure a job offer, and only then apply for a work permit. This would be the point at which their PR process could begin.\n\nWhat the government did instead was detrimental to Canadians. By allowing international students to get work permits immediately, bring their spouses, and provide work permits to them as well, they created challenges. Students should focus on studying first, graduating, and then finding a job—just as it used to be.\n\nThe government should create regulations requiring all publicly funded colleges and universities to cap the fees charged to international students. These institutions should only be allowed to charge a maximum of 15% to 25% above the fees for local students. Charging exorbitant amounts was essentially a form of robbery, exploiting international students with the false hope of permanent residency (PR), which is never guaranteed.

Toooooooo many Indians !!! And not the good ones ! Bring back the strict point system. All the old school ones are great people, these new ones have no respect for Canada and treat our country like its lawless India.

Where are the destination countries that those Canada immigrants moved to? You did not tell the whole story. The audience may think that those people are leaving Canada to US. \n\n1. Among five eyes countries, Canada is the easiest country for people to migrate to. For example Australia skill migrant program does not accept the flight attendant as the required talent. There is very slim chance that the flight attendant can get the PR through the skill migrant program in Australia. Canada is now getting into the trouble similar to the sub-prime crisis in US 15 years ago: too many people who are not the qualified immigrants arrived to Canada in past 2 years. They are leaving because the minimal hourly wages cannot support their living in the big cities like Toronto and Vancouver. \n2. High income tax ? In UK the top tax bucket is well over 40%. In Australia you need to pay 45% income tax plus 2% medical Levy surcharge\n3. High cost of living? I think the cost of living in London of UK and Sydney of Australia are also exceptionally high. The cost of living affordability depends on the income of the migrants. Low income working class will feel the cost of living and housing pressure. But this applies to all countries, including SF of US, Toronto of Canada, Sydney of Australia, London of UK\n4. Rise in crime: I do not understand this logic as the migrants left Canada to US - the city of LA, New York, Seattle and Chicago are far worse than in Canada \n5. Limited Career opportunities: the only country that has better career opportunities is US. What are the main reasons for those who are not migrating to US?\n\nIn summary, all the above points are not the main reasons. The main reason is the liberal government. Canada had taken a large number of wrong low end migrants in wrong time. When the economic downturn turn comes these are the most vulnerable group of people that should leave Canada.\n\nMany Canadian found that they resolved some of the problems by relocating from city to city ie moved from Vancouver to Calgary. Cheaper house price and cost of living, lower crime rate,etc

Can the Czar point to Canada on a map ?

Why would you want to extend your work permit? You are a student and you should be going back to India after you finish your study and before your visa expires unless you get visa sponsorship. India is a democratic country with freedom. It's not like Ukraine. What's the point of staying in Canada??

I remember a few years ago, Canadians were celebrating their 150th anniversary of the founding of the country... my work colleagues were very happy, proud... and me... well, I just told them that my capital ( Québec) had just celebrated its 400th anniversary of founding... It was a moment of total cognitive dissonance, the absolute incomprehension in their faces... ''how, why, well let's see it's impossible''... I kindly told them reminded that my state existed long before Canada, that he had never signed their constitution and that one day we would be gone. Obviously everything in English, because if I speak English, they well... they know how to say ''hello''. Canadians are good people, polite, kind, values ​​similar to the values ​​of Québécois, but they have a vision of their history and their role in this history that is so partial, romanticized that it becomes sad, especially since they draw from it an unbearable feeling of superiority. And by digging a little, we hit the limits of politeness, kindness and companionship because if Canadians like the telling of their history, they clearly do not like being reminded that Quebec was founded 250 years before the Canada and that Québécois have not joined in joy and good humor in the great Canadian adventure and that even if we are Westerners like them, we do not share their guilt in terms of the treatment of natives and other Asian immigrants nor again their strange attachment to the British crown. As Mr. Tremblay points out so well, Québécois and Canadians are much more like neighbors in a hotel than a family and even if on the surface there are several similarities, in reality, we are total strangers.

Canada never assured PR for anyone, at any point of time.\nOnly the eligible will get PR, and the rest will have to go back to their respective countries. \n\nIt is a positive news that about 1 million temporary workers/students will be given PR in the next 3 to 4 years.\n\nI remember a student, who came to Canada ?? in 2007, studied/ worked for 5 years, and went back to India, as she didn't not get PR.\n\nOnly those occupations which are in demand will attract PR. \n\nThere is nothing new in this. I can't understand, why there is so much confusion over this issue.

The Indian students need to go after Turdeau not destroy Canada to make their point the only person that needs destroying is Turdeau HE HAS LIED TO EVERYONE

These Indians need to face the fact that Canada doesn't want them, neither do our American neighbors. There is no point in running to the U.S. as they will capture and deport \nthese people. Deportation is coming, whether done by Canada or the U.S., the west does not want them. Do these people not have pride? Go home.

I do think it's worth pointing out that the cheap labour reduces incentives for companies to invest in increasing productivity. I think the high real estate costs might be a problem too - too much of Canada's available capital is going towards expanding housing supply and not enough on better technology - software, equipment, etc. I think part of the stagnant productivity has been due to lack of investment in technology, rather than laziness of workers. It's also worth pointing out that a lot of the workforce has been in government, which has been spending more and more money while not having much to show for it, so productivity in the government is another issue too. Bureaucracy and red tape can also be detrimental to productivity in both governments and the private sector. Maybe Canada needs more competitiveness (ex with telecommunications). Lack of training could be an other obstacle to productivity, or for example... not speaking English properly. Sometimes when I get customer service with an Indian, I have to make him repeat 5 times because of his extremely thick accent. He might not be lazy and trying his best, but still not very productive. \n\nWith slavery in the US, the South has been rather inefficient with their labour because slaves were relatively cheap (still had to feed and house them). With the end of slavery, came a big increase in worker productivity.\nhttps://www.nber.org/system/files/working_papers/w31758/w31758.pdf
