As a second generation Nigerian immigrant (parents were born in Nigeria and I was born in the US). I 100% agree w/ his perspective. I’ve spent consider amount of time in Nigeria w/ my side of the family that’s doing well and the other side that aren’t. Aboard should only be for people who have no opportunity back home as in they have tried everything and nothing worked for them. If you are doing well in Nigeria, try and give birth to your kids in the US so they can retrieve citizenship. There is no reason a successful person back home should sell their things and move aboard even for kids as you can send them aboard to receive an education and help them gain citizenship and from their they can file for you. The amount of systemic racism, odd jobs you will have to work (God forbid you don’t have a degree and you move aboard for non degree purposes that’s when aboard will show you pepper), cost of surviving is expense here especially now as inflation is high. It’s just not benefiting especially if you were better off in Nigeria. However, this shouldn’t stop you from coming just know that the road isn’t easy and some places are worse than others. I’ve never been to Canada but have been to the UK and by far would advice anyone from back home to avoid UK at all cost. Not even sure how Nigerians are even making it there lol (it’s a never ending cycle of poverty plus citizenship is very difficult to gain and the discrimination in my opinion is much worse than the US. UK society has a class system and it only really empowers British people. The UK is so bad that they even discriminate against Eastern Europeans that should let you know a lot.) Also why do you think most Brits Nigerians come back to Naija hoping to secure job compared to American Nigerians and let me tell you it’s not because the UK is close to Nigeria, there is a true lack of opportunity. There are more opportunity in the US and possibly Canada compared to the Europe.

But nothing is working In Nigeria? If you die your family doesn’t benefit from your job any more. Medical is not good , school is not cheap , insecurity is the norm etc. talk less of NEMA

Ironic. I bet if there was a shooting on campus this Sikh student would no doubt use his kirpan to try to take out the shooter. Weapons laws do nothing to stop bad guys who could just as easily run a van into a crowd, but they stop others from being able to defend themselves.

THEY BEGGING PLEASE!! LIKE HOW THE FUCK YOU JUST GONNA RUN INTO ANOTHER COUNTRY!!! NO EDUCATION OR NOTHING TO OFFER THIS COUNTRY!!! BUT HEY I COULD GIVE TWO SHITS BECAUSE THIS SHIT ABOUT TO BE DESTROYED ANYWAY!!!

I moved to Canada in the early 2000s as a young single lady. I had zero responsibilities or commitments to anyone back home, my expectations were not high, and i was on a journey. Canada is good when you immigrate on your own and have nothing to loose back home meaning no properties etc.\nI enjoyed living in Canada. Of course challenges will always be there but i always found a way out of them. I will forever be greatful to Canada.?

I don’t believe the news anymore, we’ve been lied to so many times now that nothing is real until I see live coverage with different sources at the same time

We (Canada) let in 1,200,000 people in the last 12 months and everything is shit here. We are at zombie-apocalypse-level population growth with the sole purpose of inflating housing prices for landowners. Indian international students are sleeping in hallways, everything is crushingly expensive, and there is no future here. It feels like being homeless in an airport concourse. The country I grew up in is gone, and in its place is nothing but despair.\n\nGo ahead and let in tens of millions of people and suppress your wages until they're the same as ours.

now it shows he is nothing without his assistants. :-D :-D :-D

Canada is nothing ? better then this go for usa , canada is worst country for international students..its like uk now... honestly usa is the best

It's nothing more then a dream with trudeau in power

That comment about no enjoyment with their work was spot on. We work with older equipment older software our businesses dont invest like american ones do. We dont get new forklifts. Nothing yet they put tremendous pressure on whoever shows up Monday. If we cant be rich can we at least be happy? If i was picking countries as an immigrant id pick usa!

Why a Nigerian? why not an indian ? This a ploy to discourage african to go to Canada nothing else

If this is a situation the whole border. How bout we send money their like we did Ukraine. What is it that make USA not send money to south America and help whatever the situation is there instead of business across the world. We spend money like it's nothing anyways

Drugs in every country, people and drugs are the same in every country...this video is just totally unrealistic representation of Canada...racism exists in every country...go and look at China, North Korea, Iran...this video is nothing more than an attack from some over privileged woke people.

Finally he will have become hero of that University. Nothing stopped nothing improved.

I see a bunch of weak people who were unwilling to fight for their freedoms at the cost of their own lives, fleeing desperately to shelter underneath the strong people who have. \n\nYou bring your children here hoping they can enjoy the freedoms our ancestors died for, because you and your ancestors were unwilling to fight for it. \n\nThis is a weak people. They have nothing to contribute to our country except the weakening of a population.

I just don't no why this people just stay at there hm they just want people to feel sorry 4 them there going thur there mess because they want it like that there nothing but problems

The presidents too causally doing nothing. Best bet to is get rich on your own. Middle and low class being replaced by illegal imma grants .

They are running to the same thing they are running from !! We have bad leaders here too America is not the Same !!! The Dems do nothing about violence !! Our America is gone because we don't have leaders who care about us !! Remember you Dem supporters you voted for this are you happy !!! You bashed Trump because he tried to prevent this !! So you like violence and all this Chao !! Your home is being invaded too !! I sincerely hope you are happy !!! You put your trust in people who don't care about you or your safety !! You bash republicans and all they want is a decent nation to live in !!! And you like the evil !!!!!

Whatever said is absolutely correct, fully agree with their views, I am in the UK and feeling the same though I am here for a short period. Nothing like our colorful country. MERE BHARAT MAHAN jo bolte heina bilkul correct hein.100% agree with the two elders speaking their mind out.

We are packed in Texas, I'm struggling to buy food and keep my apartment. What do these people want to be here so bad. I'm tired of working two jobs and my taxes go to these people when they get here and apply for assistance. There is nothing here go back. We are dealing with our own problems.We can't help.

Is 2023 if you owned nothing it’s practically impossible to be oner of something. I feel it’s the beginning of the end

The blame falls on the government, Trudeau did nothing to build this country. We can't help our own people but we have high immigration. How can we support new comers with no growth, high prices and debt. The rent prices have increased so much and food prices and fuel prices just to name a few. Our kids will will never own homes and we better teach them about debt and spending if that is going to matter the way things are going. Trusting the banks with your money will be a big factor when they go cashless!

Yeah idk about you but your basically saying we gotta care about 1% of the population while you screw over the rest America is going through cass warfare attacks on wages and treated like nothing by your employer is common place let's take care of our people and when there not worrying about there next bill and meal I'll be fine with dealing with that 1% but even then like you said there making over 100k so even then you have to make a good argument for a rich person being a victim

I don't even want to hear it. Biden opened the border, we did nothing. They have been funneling in for years now and they have became emboldened. Prepare yourselves, this is only the beginning. America is dying, and we are doing nothing.

It sucks both ways. Stuck between a rock and a hard place. Look at the sadness in their eyes, the pain they flee is nothing we know in America. But we also can’t just let this stuff go uncontrolled..

done on purpose, the rich will move out and live in Hawaii since US dollar is backed by nothing, Inflation will only rise (push out the natives, wild fire, build real estate) known as the great reset not just Hawaii but to other countries as well. Get out of America while you can. America will be considered as third world country. The government does not care about you, voting system in America is rigged, no free press. America is totally fxxked

Indian airlines should start taking a stricter approach towards such shameless entitled people who know nothing about etiquettes or being considerate towards the surroundings and people around them or even understand how our actions might be causing some discomfort to them. Start escorting such people out of the flight like the airlines in other country does, only then they’ll know how to stay disciplined.

Where they going ? Ain't nothing here

I think anyone that wants to switch countries should fight for it. Draft their asses into the military. Those poor kids, though. ? There was a Haitian family, on the First 48, came to Florida and all of them were found dead of starvation in their apartment. There was nothing that they could obtain, legally, because of their illegal entrance here. How do they expect to eat if they're by taking from us by force?

Most frauds are woman now a days.... all these consultancies full of shameless filth.y woman scammers... who are good for nothing. Especially in india.

Little do they know there's NOTHING here for them but hardship!! Lies and more lies by the Democrats!! Guess theyre too busy worrying about Trump and not the country

If they start giving these people benefits I’m gonna be so pissed off. Born and raised in the U.S. and if I can’t get housing and an alien can then there really is no hope for this country. Nothing to do with the Mexican people. This goes for any and all immigrants. Do it right or don’t do it at all, cause you’re fucking over a lot of people in your selfish attempts at a “better” life. Cause it isn’t much better here anyways

Why you all didn't tell the truth! As he said nothing!!? He was a trafficker! He should have been hand cuffed and prostituted! He put his hands on her! Airline workers! Make sure you get her out of danger first!

There is nothing to be proud of or good about this South Asian Cockroach Invasion/ Infestation. You Cockroaches have intentionally distoyed Brampton

Brut have nothing to shows to the world but this,,,shameful

Im voting for trump again. Thats all ima say nothing more nothing less

All of yiu complaining but let in the Ukrainians freely meanwhile we pay for their housing! Food prices are rising but you say nothing about them. But the Mexicans,And Haitians can’t even come over? It’s racist!

Hey now is you run past the cops you can become one\n\nStop having us build free housing\nThey quadrupled the cost of everything to make us their slaves\n\nWe lost our houses yet make too much to qualify, so we build Mexicans not here yet free housing and you give them free food of course they will come and you will collapse this economy. Weare now living multiple families to a house while they written for cash, live in free housing, and then get a house during the collapse and gain 2 investment properties. We have nothing brave they bought our govt with coke, took event from us and gave it to them. We have nothing now and can't even keep 40 hrs on a lot of checks\n\nIf you flooded their country they would shoot you\n\nThey have 17-18 kids even and send then to suffocate in the back of food trucks or down in the Rio, all to collapse the US\n\nYou build a wall with 3 for gaps in between some of the sections\n\nThe Azteca and Mayan were coming up here to capture the American imams for slavery and sacrificing them before eating them, they fought each other\n\nCould save your country and theirs\n\nThis was allowed to happen to Germany and everyone got f'd over\n\nA peaceful fentynal takehome euthana drink with a micro serial number available at every pharmacy and 45-65 percent of the quirks would say thanks, and then there room for everyone, instead the cartel contaminated it with xyaxaline so their flesh would rot and they works need amputations. Don't try to kill yourselves now

This is our president doing nothing about it because he is thinking more voters

I'm a US citizen who lived in Australia for 2 years. The process there is very similar to Canada's but with a slightly stronger tilt towards specific skills. The recession hit in 2014 and, without a sponsor, they weren't renewing most visas so we had to GTFO. I'm still sad about it. Obviously my life in the States is nothing to cry about but our life in Oz was amazing..

But she’s done nothing for the tax payers she’s gonna punish ????

We are NOT the next country. International law requires you seek asylum at the next country after yours, not a country 10 countries away where you can get the most resources while doing nothing for them. None of these people are legal asylees. They all passed through the next country to make their way here and overwhelm the U.S. Only Canadians and Mexicans are legal asylees.

America, You ain't got nothing I need!

Trust a negotiation at your own risk. The city was to be called akon city and u invest your money into that? ?????. All these negros stealing from other black people, deleting other black people. Cynthia g is right. Nothing good can come out of these trifling ass b*tch ass bandits

What do they bring to the table? Nothing, they are a burden before they even enter the country. Expecting to be taken care of after entering ILLEGALLY.

LMAO LOOKS like the riot at the Capital. No big deal that's what many said about the capital riot. So there is nothing wrong with them crossing the boarder. My job is secure and THERE ARE SOME VERY GOOD PEOPLE CROSSING THE BORDER LMAO . It's true

There is no jobs in canada nowdays and canadian government dumping million new immigrants per year is nothing more than jokes.

Joe biden has destroyed this country. Dont even try and argue with me because there's nothing you can say that will make me forget how much better off we were under Trump. Democrats are their own worst enemies. Republicans dont even have to put any effort into making the left look stupid. They do that by themselves perfectly fine.

This is crazy , wonder why the drug problem is rampant in our country ? Wonder why there is a 300% increase in crime in the cities ? Wonder why there is a housing crisis ? Wonder why our country is falling apart at the seams ? HERE IS THE REASON ! Now ….HERE IS THE SOLUTION …#1 You want citizenship here ? You are immediately enlisted in the armed forces for a minimum of 4 years .#2 You are sent to school in the military to read and write english . #3 If you refuse to swear allegiance and enlist ( you are not given visa , green card status ) nothing …you go home . #4 if you have a felony criminal record …you go home ….#5 sex offender ? You go home . #6 No money made here in the US being deposited in oversea accounts . #7 There is a limit on how much $ can be sent to the family of recent US citizens , can be lifted after 2 years of living in US . #8 No recent US citizen can hold any political office , anywhere …#9 Failure to abide by the laws in this country be it state or federal , you go home citizenship revoked ( within reason ) #10 No flying your previous countries flag or colors on your car or home . What ? Sound communist ? It’s not , these are guidelines for several countries , Israel being one , there it’s 2 years military svc , women included . New Zealand , Australia , japan , etc …….
