If someone is disturbing you in the flight don't tell the person but push the button and call the air hostess - let them handle it than deal with uncultured people like these

As a first gen Chinese American, and to be fair to the US, please remember (1) US has a border with Mexico, which means illegal immigration is so much bigger than legal ones that it sucks up much of the government immigration resources. (2l when the US population is as small as Canada's today, US was not only letting in people from all over the world but also giving them free land (google the homestead acts).

This is something that could really help my industry if that 65,000 was raised. Everybody knows aviation is a tight industry, and with a massive labor shortage. The flight school I attend is half immigrants, mostly Japanese and Korean with a moderate minority of Europeans and Africans. The Asian students are for the most part wanting to stay in the US, despite not coming from poor nations. The opportunity for a pilot here is leagues above anywhere else bar Europe, but most will likely not even be able to maintain a work visa, let alone a green card. This also means (as pointed out) that leaving the country is hard, and they would only be allowed to fly domestic flights within the country (no flying to Canada). The issues that these highly qualified pilots could solve by being allowed to work in the US airline industry are inconceivable.\n\nIt took my mum (I was born British-American) took 9 years to become a US citizen, I was there for her first swearing in, and the UK is America’s closest ally. Imagine how difficult it is for immigrants not of such nationality.

Okay let me stop the video at 1:34 where he says the US only has 14% you do realize thats 46 million when 14%x330mil while canda population is only 36 million. So that means we have more sitting immigrants in this country then canada whole population. I was taught to watch graphs and precentages for biases and i see why.

Let's not ignore all the illegal immigrants.

Proud to be Canadian. Yeah our wages aren’t as high but we don’t arm every yahoo on the street to murder us, we don’t let you die if you can’t afford health insurance, and we’re more polite ?

The start question: BECAUSE MY MUM WONT LET US!

Mexico needa stop letting us over there then! Period

Meanwhile gangster cops are busy murdering innocent Afro-Americans with the now confused, main stream mass media. Good luck white America, lets see how you handle these arrogant and respectful Latinos.

Fuck it let a war start and see who wins

I believe the brain reason why they letting all these people cross our borders is so the Democrats could cheat in another election

It's the best place to raise a family. Yes, you must educate yourself in Canada so you can contribute. Most come here thinking everything is free. I'm not sure why Canada lets in uneducated people.

Mexico lets people from South America enter their country as long as they are not staying there, but heading for the U.S.

Let them have America and let's al go to Mexico. Lol

Why? juat to have a naighbor from hell...or have some road rager freak out for not letting them in line..

People fleeing Communist ? Maybe you should live free or die trying. Don't let the dictator take away your country your life

This bad, Americans will suffer from this overlaping of ethnicity ...it's selfish times coming and theirs, those that have already passed . American officials shouldn't have let it get cozy dealings with those rogue elements...

U didn't let him finish the sentence 0_o?!

Df stay we’re u from damn beans and fix your own problems and state with your weak ahhh president cuz the cartel told his lil B ahh if he don’t let the cartel what they want and sh they find his family and kill dem but it’s funny cuz these mf are lying smart ruthless fear their ez enemies we know they here in usa around the state it’s just the government waiting for dem cause they got something good consequence come for them all remember technology nor only on your phones it’s could track you technology every kind of technology. It’s easy to find a target. not to find to hear and see what everyone around the world doing this ain’t 1990 or sh we’re in the future and it’s getting crazy

WTF!.. Are they kidding?...they act like we owe them entry and a free life.. it's disgusting . I hope you all remember who let them in and who will continue to let them in ,in 2024

If they voted for the policies that destroyed their countries don't let them in. No more leftists

The law letting them walk in illegaly.

Now you tell is it ok to let in all ? Without regulations? \n\nYou effing stupids it'll cause problems, wall or fence whatever it is, it's needed for regulations

Yes, American citizens need to be taken care of first before we let any more people into the country, but let's keep thinking about this... Why are so many people trying to escape Venezuela? Could it possibly be the cripplingly sanctions the US has imposed on Venezuela for decades? There is no better example of how sanctions don't work and only make the population of the country suffer and not the leaders. Why are people trying to leave Mexico, which is a country where guns are 100% illegal? If you guessed violence from the drug cartels being one of the main reasons, good job. Now, why do drug cartels in Mexico even exist? To supply the gigantic appetite that Americans have. Where are the cartels getting their guns from? Once again the answer is Mexico. If you are someone saying Mexico needs to fix itself, just remember that they have the one of the worst neighbors ever. We have no problem giving Israel $3 billion every year and sending our military all over the world to bring democracy to people who never wanted it, but our neighbors to the south? Fuck em. War on drugs? Lol. That's a war America doesn't really want to win.

I mean the reasons listed are already reason enough, but additional reasons:\n\n- our labour laws tend to be superior to the majority of states (seriously, Wisconsin has no workers rights, maternity leave is barely a thing in most states let alone parental leave)\n-social security net in the event of losing a job (during the start of the pandemic, even though we did have to suddenly change the system, the fact that we already had a safety net to begin with was a huge relief to many)\n- the racism, while still obviously present, is significantly lower (experienced more racism in Edmonton than I do in a tiny town in rural Quebec). This before even beginning to consider how the police forces in the USA would be more likely to target someone like me whether I am guilty or not (have personally had nothing but good experiences with the police anywhere I have lived personally).\n\nThe only things that have ever tempted me in particular have been the lower housing costs, but… that’s clearly only the immediate monetary cost, and for me has never even come close to making up for the other significantly more important things that I would have to deal with / be concerned over.

Easy solution that will stop people from doing this is set up some machine guns at the border and right when this kind of shit happens, let it loose

Illegals shouldn't be here but biden just keeps giving them free houses free food free everything and we the law abiding citizens pay for them to live here after all them illegal immigrants got here illegally no other country would let illegals do what they're doing in America just chuck a grenade or something at them they'll run away real fast

Open the Exit emergency door and let them land and fight if they will be alive ?

Skipping the fetus position, shows you are a chicken to admit one of the the biggest faults of the USA. I do not take this video as seriously and you are kind of mocking us by not addressing the obvious. At least you are brave enough to talk about gun culture and killing kids in schools. You show me the small American towns that are BLUE and not RED. They are rare. Check out your last electoral map. Also we (our family of four) agree, we have decided to NEVER travel to the US for holidays again. Let alone ever live there. We would actually pick Jamaica or Fiji over any of your sunbelt states. O Canada!!!

THIS is why we shouldn't let people in Canada who don't share our values. People come from different countries and their values are not to increase productivity, create community or become Canadian. My bf is an immigrant and in his citizenship test he was asked if women were property. Future students, PRs and citizens should not be able to own more than 2 properties. Whoever says this is motivational and aspires to create wealth by causing financial distress to others should leave Canada.

Your immune to the BS you grew up in it. The US is a dangerous place to visit let alone visit

This is what you guys want, right? Let a few of them move in with Anderson Cooper ?

let's see this BS

Im religious let me carry a holy ak47 daily

weird i recall people talking about their medical bill and they said, they were charges for every single thing the hospital did, that health insurence only lets you get to a hospital, it does not pay anything

I'm canadian and I came to see how many canadians came to the comment section to continue the reddit thread lol.\n\nAlso, I'd move there if musk became my boss and let me play with skynet level stuff.

mcdonalds and starbucks are 2 reasons never to visit let alone move to the US . We visited the US a few years ago and the best part was that it reinforced just how lucky we are to be living in Austyralia

As an immigrant myself, there is a proper way to let immigrants in(through getting a visa, because you will have a thorough background check) and chaos way of letting people in(you really don’t know what type of people getting in

Let's go Brandon.

Lol moved out of comufornia and wont go back. Heard many say they left comufornia to a red state and wont go back. Just too bad they didnt learn to vote different. Leave 1 shit hole to a red state but still vote blue then that state becomes comufornia. If i left canada to the states i would never live in comufornia. Biden lovers can move to canada and trump supporters move to the states. Biden and castro run canada, trump runs the states. Lets see who has it the best in 10 yrs

Would you let your kids walk alone to school? If no, is that perhaps because it doesn't feel safe? Do they have lockdown drills at school? Isn't that an indication that violence is prevalent?

For all the amazing things the US has to offer, right now we don't even want to visit there, let alone move there. We've talked about it a lot, but nope. In Canada, generally speaking (although there are exceptions to every rule) we have no idea what political leaning our neighbors favor. Political campaigns last no more than 51 days; they do not start the day after the last election and go on for years. This way, elected officials actually do some work instead of campaigning. Right now, the politics in the US, as well as the judiciary, are literally insane. Gun violence in the US is insane, as is the attitude towards guns. It shouldn't take a shooting that affects you personally to make you care about it, and it's not just at schools. The US has had 28 mass killings, with 140 victims, in 6 months... but the problem is that no one down there cares about that enough to stop it, or even discuss ways to stop it. The politics is so sold out to corporations that what is good for the people just doesn't matter. It is capitalism run amok. Environmental protections? They are an inconvenience, and most of them were rolled back a few years ago under the presidency of He Who Must Not Be Named. So politics, elections, shootings... but wait. There's more. I have a wonderful friend in the US who has amazing health care, and yet when he got cancer, he was screwed. We do pay a health care premium up here, but it is a drop in the bucket compared to what people in the US pay for private insurance. Yes, you have the best hospitals in the world, but it doesn't matter if you can't afford to walk in the door. Now dump the intolerance -- racism, homophobia, religious zealots, misogyny (yes, I am talking women's rights, equal pay, access to health care, etc) -- throw in the crazies with guns, and now ask the question again. I absolutely know that Canada is not perfect, and that the tolerances and attitudes towards all these subjects differs from region to region, but overall we are a country that tries to respect the rights and needs of others, that has empathy for others, that wants to help others, and that is a pretty firm foundation to make us want to stay here. (please don't interpret this as all Americans and all areas of the US have no respect etc... but the predominant issues of health care, politics, religion, corporate greed, and violence, now all supported by a bat-crap crazy SCOTUS, sadly spills and taints it all. I know there are amazing, generous, kind people all over the US, but I don't know where the crazies are or where they might pop up).

Tyler, I can see you are sadden by these reactions and I feel for you. Honestly, I love the USA and I would actually live there in a heartbeat for all the positive reasons I know and love about the US. However, as Mom and a soon to be school age child, I would hesitate because of that. Canada has its own issues and don’t let everyone fool you. It’s not some social utopia. We have problems too just different. It’s like you said you need to pick a good, safe safe to live in. The same advise applies to Canada. Also, Reddit is full of your not so typical Canadians so take with a grain of salt ?

The real ‘why’ is why cnn is letting you see this when there’s far more of this going on they are not showing you

Well, you said it. On the gun violence topic that it seems that Americans are desensitized to how much gun violence is happening. It does happen in big urban areas but also rural areas. This is what the world sees of America and their love of guns. Too much money in that industry for it to ever change. I mean, if nothing has changed when those babies.....let that sink in. When those babies at Sandy Hook died, the parents were bullied threatened and basically disrespected and discredited but gun lobbyists, government and even the average American. If that tragic event didn't change anything....nothing will.

Usa has a very poor education system and a very poor health care compare to canada. And here in canada we do not let Christianity rule over freedom. So i will never move to the usa.

It depends upon where in the US. You couldn't pay me enough to move to CA, NY, or IL. However, if I had a job offer and could get a green card, I would move to FL or TX in a heartbeat. My friend and his wife have been looking at houses in FL near Tampa. They are almost half the price of what they are in London, ON. As far as shootings, these people forget about the shootings and stabings in Canada. A mother of two was shot in what some think may have been a turf fight between two drug dealers, and she just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. In Vancouver, a father was stabbed to death in front of his family at an outdoor cafe. At least in the US, you can protect yourself. In Canada it is illegal to have mace, or pepper spray, let alone carry a gun around.

Dude. I have been considering it a lot lately... shit is getting so wack here lately and suddenly america is looking a lot more free right now... our current leadership is doign some insane shit that a lot of us feel you guys would never let this happen.

Tyler, with complete respect you DON'T get why we generally have no interest in moving to the US. You constantly talk about 'you just have to find the right place to live'. True of anywhere, but here the choice would be about preferences and afordability, NOT to avoid gun violence or shunning because of political views.\nThere is no where in Canada I could move to where gun violence would be a big factor to consider (we have rough places, and gun violence, but STRICT gun laws). Let me give you some perspective. In 2019 the USA had 37,038 gun related deaths. (No other causes of death- JUST all gun death). In Canada, in 2019, our death by illegal means (which does include suicide, as it is illegal) was 5,874. (That is for ALL types of homicide, not just guns). And the government was shocked by the increase that year and tightened gun restrictions further.\nYou talk about having certain States more Red or Blue. We aren't bi- partisan, so our politics are a melting pot. You might have people you disagree with everywhere you go, but you will also always find an equal group who thinks similar (unless your an extremist). And even the people who think different will generally agree to dis- agree. There is next to nowhere in Canada where your political views would get you run out of town. \n\nYou are USED to thinking like an American. (Fair, your American; I think like a Canadian) Trust me, as a Canadian, there are aspects of the accepted American culture (your country's way of life) that is boarderline terrifying to people here.

After Sandy Hook, I swore I wouldn’t go back to the US until something was done to stop the school shootings. I haven’t been back, it would make me feel complicit. I can’t let my tourist dollars go to a country who is fine with babies being slaughtered in their classroom. Canadians truly cannot fathom a love for guns that would allow this type of slaughter to continue happening.
