I live in Toronto. I have a lady my neighbour who told my Colombian Jamaican son she hates immigrants and would never hire a black person. In 2023!!! Can you believe it. She is Greek and was never born in Canada and she hates immigrants!! ? the lady in the video has a point.

Lies!! I’m black dark skin and was born in Canada, I lived everywhere from east coast to west coat I personal lived in Edmonton and was perfectly fine! There is gonna be racism everywhere but I love Canada some of my family live in Edmonton and there fine! All I can say if you can live in the USA as a black person you can live anywhere in Canada, this place is nothing compared to US . When keeping it reel go wrong!!!

Holy...Mother of God! At this rate, we either have to terraform the Mid-Western desert into a liveable environment or face the problem of hospitable living space shortage. If we also ignore that shortage, then several decades later, the USA, being the tendency to act humanitarian, policies will require architecting new land expansion outwards to the sea, prior historic example is Hong Kong being a small crowded island. That solution or build vertical. Going underground or expanding upwards on sky scrapers multi-story apartments. Or to the Moon or Mars.\n\nWhy does the physical composition of these Central Americans and South-Americans people drive their sex-drive outrageously out of control? Is the cause the high protein meat diet? Or their inherently healthy tropical nature born of the sun's vitalizing energy? Whichever the cause, America will sooner or later face the biggest population crisis eventually in the future. \nThere are two choices of action at the moment. Either control this type of uncontrollable surge or plan huge architectural civil projects in order to meet the future need of population boom accompanionship. Dear God almightly, help us all. I presently also have a mouse problem and cockroach problem at my residence! Gasp! Sigh...?\nI wish I have an alien ship capeable of interstellar travel, so I can get the FUCK off this planet.

Anyone not born in the U.S at least three generations on this soil you have no place to talk! People are starving and they are just that people. Where's your humanity?

My cousin told me, this year's ago and he was born their and still lives there,

Jesus! Can’t tell you how happy I am to be born in Australian and live on an island boarded by oceans ??

Canadian born can't even get in.

That's why disown the country that where I was born because of rejection as black child

I born in Toronto Canada Ontario but I grew up in UK South London and you have racism over here but over here we unit and fight together

Not my problem. I was born here.

Hilarious. Education? LOL. I was born, lived and worked in 5 provinces and can safely say the education is far from world class. Geographically Canada is amazing beyond that, we fall below many many nations in many areas and oh, I've lived in 3 other countries. Most of our problems are directly due to the federal government.

We need to use them to fill up all those jobs that are in need of workers and only pay minimum wage.. This is coming from a American Mexican...Im race is Mexican but i was born in ??.

Cant wait for the major cultural shift in the border states where the natural born American citizen also becomes the minority.

Hello black women living in Leduc Alberta for over 20 year's . I'm from Toronto born in Jamaica . Now look nowhere is perfect there is racism everywhere, i found more in Toronto then Alberta. In Alberta the most problems i have is with dating but work wise i don't get the racism, its opposite. I get jobs because of my skin. I haven't been called the N word in Alberta to my face anyways and in Toronto too many times to count. I personally love Alberta and will probably retire here. I treat everyone i meet with respect and I've been given the same. I really wish that everyone could just get along and stop with the colors of skin BS and just be kind to each other.

Bro your accent has totally changed being someone who was born and bred in Canada. He sounds more Pakistani than Canadian

Born in East LA ?

Keep them the out. Americans struggle too it’s not our fault u were born in Mexico.

The migrants that I know, have better jobs than me. They don’t live in housing and are not on food stamps. They are not eligible for that assistance anyway because they were not born here and they make way more than allowed to be eligible. My neighbor is a migrant worker and he works in the pipeline industry. I have no idea how he got a job like that so quick. I work in retail as a service writer and maintenance guy.

When are us citizens who were born here and lived here ask their life going to recieve some help.

Their fight is with their own damn country. My taxes, my hard work, my contributions to this country as a born citizen and Gulf War Army vet are for the citizens of this country.. not any others. Send them back just like you do the Haitians, Cubans and others that migrate to this country illegally

they fight to come here bc everyone knows America will treat immigrants and refugees better than a natural born US citizen ..take care of Americans 1st

Born in east L.A style

I'm sorry for their demise but we have a MASSIVE HOMELESS PROBLEM ALREADY. People that were born here haven't been help, we have homeless VETERANS they need help first!!!

Such a slap in the face to homeless people who were born, worked in, and lived in America all their life. Where is their “free ticket” to housing and resources? America makes it hard for their own; especially Blacks, to survive. Always some kind of impossible agreement they want you to agree with to obtain help. As a Black American, homeless and disabled; worked low wage jobs here in America over 30 years; was blocked from receiving my full lump sum disability because they knew it would have been enough to buy myself a home; Have been homeless over a year now and can’t agree to America’s rules for fair housing because their rules aren’t fair for Black Americans altogether. America have set Blacks against Blacks; put them in positions to turn other Blacks away from houses and resources; but all they care about is their job. They know their job requires the impossible for many Blacks to agree to, but they easily and intentionally overlook it. How can I agree to volunteer or work if I’m disabled? I applied for disability because I can no longer work. And…It took forever for me to get that. My long, steady work history will prove that I’m not lazy which is used as their excuse for not helping Blacks. America will bend over backwards to help foreigners while we sleep on the streets. That’s the reason why they went out on a limb to employ people from different countries. They called it diversity when they clearly knew it was racism. They had rather employed foreigners to keep Blacks from progressing. America is reaping its seeds right now. Say good bye to America because it’s about to become a new foreign country to all Americans. You reap the seeds you sow. You must be fair to your own first, but you disclaim your own. ❤ And by the way;…..Reparations to Black Americans may be a good start in the eyesight of God who have watched how you treated us for so very long. Nobody in America should be homeless regardless. When God says enough; wickedness and injustices must stop. Not tomorrow but right now! In the name of Jesus; Blacks shall receive reparations so they may live safe and peaceful lives in measures of ours and our ancestors works. Father I pray a special blessing for these people that’s crossing over. Only you know their situation as you know ours. All we want to do is to live in peace on Earth as you intended for all. Amen. ❤

Give them all a visa and tell me a born citizen I can't get credit to even get a camper to live in

As an American born Hispanic citizen with one immigrant Father, and two immigrant maternal grandparents, I will say what needs to be said. The government was NOT made to PROVIDE help. It was made to MANAGE the country as a WHOLE! There’s a legal way of doing things! All these immigrants you see here are clearly uneducated, and will have a negative effect on the local communities surrounding the borders. Naturalized citizens hate nothing more than an ignorant illegal immigrant.

That fact that these people feel ENTITLED to cross over. I’m a tax paying natural born citizen. These ppl should follow protocol or stay in their dusty ahh countries.

Get them outa here. They take jobs and housing away from people who were born here and need jobs and housing. Not to mention the huge strain on the health care system

Many of these people have to flee their country due to death threats from cartels or numerous other organizations, others have were born into extreme poverty. These struggles are unrecognized by us 1st world Americans. It is so easy to sit in our comfy homes and protest “they need to respect our borders laws” brothers and sisters when you know what living in a corrupt 3rd would country is like living under the constant threat of criminal organizations, you Americans would also do anything possible to keep yourself and families safe, I promise the things you people say would be the last things on your mind, but 1st world citizens will never understand.

As a nubian born and raised in Canada, this country IS the birthplace of Subtle(suttle) Racism.

It’s a bad look on your country when the people born there dont want to live there. What is their government doing?

It’s so sad that they think committing a felony is worth it to get out of their own country, and to think there are Americans who are ungrateful to be born there when most Americans have it pretty good compared to their neighbors

Meanwhile!! I can't get my disability approved after getting hurt & been an American citizen since the Day I was born here! They get them help immediately

?‍? They’re trying to get tf out of there when the roles reverse boi’s will understand… I’m so grateful to be compassionate in this world riddled with hatred and people feeling like they’re better than the other person bitch be grateful that y’all were born at a different point of geography…

This is some born in east LA type shit

Those poor people and America ?? is having problems with everything here like we need to help us so we can help them! It’s a wild world and America ?? is not even able to help our own that live and born here. Kids are starving no where to live. It took me 10 months to find a place to live that’s decent and affordable but it isn’t affordable for 2bedroom apartments at $2700-3k a month just for rent.

And I’m supposed to feel bad for these jackasses? Where you gunna go morons? Oh that’s right it’s gunna be our responsibility to take care of them and give them free healthcare and food stamps and every thing else to let them live better than natural born citizens.

They all tried doing that after watching Born in East LA

I hope we can at least reflect and consider how lucky we are for being born in a country we do not feel the need to flee.

They really think theyre entitled to just force their way in and take whats already entitled to the people born here....ridiculous

All they do is come to America to steal jobs from born and raised Americans so they can pop out 40 more kids and take more Government money which is really just U.S citizens money

Born in East LA

Immigrants have more “rights” and “programs” to help them succeed and contribute to the American society than those born here. Problem is a large percentage aren’t coming here to seek a better life. They work and send everything home for their families to live better in that country. Or commit violent crimes and burden the state even worse. If a politician supports a vetting process then they are deemed “racist”. Fact is America is moving backwards. Won’t be long before you see crowds like this trying to get out.

This is crazy and so wrong in countless ways. Try to buy a house in alot of countries and you can't if you weren't born there, but really we can't even take care of our own people.

Close the border it took us forever to find a home last year and my husband and I was born here you can have so much gonna have to have a war to defend Americans hate to think it but something gotta give

This saddens me to my soul. I was born and raised here in America and never thought in all my years would ever see something like this. America is no more as long as that potato head is in the white house.

seriously my heart breaks for these people, but for fucks sake we have inflation, our two party system seems to be failing in the way of agreeing and working on anything together, rising cost of living, etc, we can't take EVERYONE, this is ridiculous, if we do the children being born today won't even recognize the america us Mid Mellenials experienced, I am all for proper immigration, and some asylum, but we would be better off by trying to help them go home and fix thier country, so sad the American dream is slipping away more and more.

We are seeing this right now because the entire world knows that our borders are wide open and everyone is welcome. We've become the laughing stock of the planet for more than one reason... The people coming in know that they aren't going to get shot so why not try? Worst case scenario they'll just get sent home. My heart tells me that everyone deserves a chance for a better life in our country but my brain tells me we are full up folks! We can't take care of the people that were born here and should legitimately get what little help we have to give - We simply cannot have hundreds of thousands more bodies needing help!

???????? I feel so blessed to have been born here in the U.S.....scared to think what they are running from...

Sad part is they all believe there is “the American Dream” an reality is there isn’t. Once entered illegally where do they think they will go to some kingdom where they are given everything they need to survive? They will come be homeless and in the system. As it Is, us that are here working and born here can hardly get by and less you have lots of money and are rich there is no dream.
