To all of the imigrants who want a better life. STUDY hard and recieve your education in your HOME COUNTRY and get as many qualifications as you can. THEN learn ENGLISH, communication and Microsoft office. Congratulations, you are now JOB ready. NOW come to Canada, other countries other than your homeland. BOOM, you will now be qualified, have a well paid job. Start a family and can LIVE. This will add less headache for your parents, families. DO NOT come here without a plan.

Everyone saying there is no space for everyone,did you know the US sanctioned the Venezuela goverment and most importantly their oil company,hence hyperinflating the Venezuelan peso,Venezuela has more oil then Saudi Arabia,if they were allowed to use their own resources with out the US trying to interfere,they would be one of the richest countries in the world,so in all actuality,i dont See anything wrong with them trying to come in to the country that,sanctioned them from having a decent living

I am so sick and tired of seeing this all the time. Look at all of our homeless all the veterans that fought for us to have our freedom that we hold so dear, What about those people ?? Some of them are on the streets and are homeless!! We’re not even barely helping our own people but yet we’re supposed to help all these immigrants that are coming over illegally and forcefully? It’s absolutely disgusting. We need to help our own people and fortify our own country and nation and leave everyone else alone.

They are coming for free bus rides into the country

Don't try coming into my country like that. Us AMERICANS HAVE SO MANY OF OUR OWN GOING THROUGH HOMELESSNESS THATS INCLUDING OUR VETS ONCE WE CAN HELP OUR VETS AN OUR OWN PEOPLE MAYBE WE'LL HELP THE ALIENS BUT THIS IMMIGRANT STUFF IS BS

Aren’t we fortunate in the US to have **none** of these problems!\n\nWe have no homeless here!\n\nTake a look at SF, LA (where all “solutions” are rooted in Bolshevism; “Hi, we’re from the government and will be taking over half of your front yard for homeless yurts (Ok, tents)--true story. Take a gander at any large, medium, and even a few small cities.\n\nHave you ever heard of Detroit (once proud home of my beloved Motown music), Baltimore (complete devastation), or Chicago (my home town—don’t make me cry)?\n\nThe entire homeless situation started when mental hospitals were snake pits and certain factions demanded that people be released.\n\nSure, it sounds humanitarian but they didn't bother to consider what would happen to mentally ill patients suddenly left to their own devices on the streets.\n\nThe do gooders actually were foolish enough to believe that the seriously ill patients (schizophrenic, bipolar, borderline, and plenty of others) would take their meds on their own. It doesn't work that way for patients who are not in contact with reality.\n\nNow we add extreme drugs (crack, meth, heroine, ketamine, whatever they hand out at parties, etc) and severe cases of PTSD/PTSS. It's obscene that we have veterans on the streets.\n\nHeath care--?. Pre Obamacare it wasn’t terrible but medicine had become a CYA project. We are so litigious (side eye to John Edwards ) that doctors practice defensive medicine and carry high limit malpractice insurance (guess who pays for that?). Every decision is driven by avoiding lawsuits, not proper patient care.\n\nPost Obamacare, US health care is an unmitigated disaster at every level. We’re short on doctors, too. Many quit and students are losing interest—medicine won’t pay enough anymore to justify $500K in loans.\n\nWe could repeal every bit of Obamacare tomorrow and still not be able to fix it. The leviathan grew tentacles that released toxins into every nook and cranny of the system. Now that they have buried themselves in critical layers, it would be impossible to yank them out.\n\nI have a good PCP who is booked 6-8 weeks out. Specialists? Hah. GI, neuro, and derm? Four to six month wait post referral.\n\nI never thought I would say such a thing but I would probably swap the Serial Sexual Predator occupying the WH for your Little Lord Fauntleroy.\n\nCan Canada compete with us in corruption? Government employees seriously tried to topple a sitting president and not only were there no consequences, they were able to retire on fat pensions that we citizens work hard to provide for them.\n\nOur government is run entirely by K Street lobbyists; our “representatives” don’t even draft legislation, that’s done for them by K ST.\n\nHow about crime? Do we even need to talk about it?\n\nHousing crisis? Prices were already too high when the regime (predictably) created runaway inflation and we saw the end of affordable interest rates. Even 0.25% increase will knock out many buyers; they won’t be able to qualify.\n\nWe are seeing huge jumps; young people have resigned themselves to never being homeowners.\n\nRacism? Again, look to the US. It’s nothing even close to what the make believe media caterwauls about. If white supremacists are behind every tree, where is the evidence? Surely, in 2023 has caught a cell phone video, right? Where are the videos? Show me the proof. There is plenty of footage of BLM destroying property and injuring, even murdering innocents. If we gripe about this behavior, we are raaayyyycccciiiiissssts.\n\nNo rational adult would claim that the US is not a violent country and becoming more so. Nor can we claim to have eliminated racism. That takes time; it cannot be done by force.\n\nOur economy went from smokin hot to dumpster fire in a short span of time. Pre election, head hunters were shaking the trees to find job candidates.\n\nOur unemployment is up as are our taxes with the stomping out of the tax cuts. \n\nDespite the endless sloganeering about how the Trump tax cuts only benefited “rich” people, it’s quite the opposite.\n\nHigh earners lost their pet deductions and lower income taxpayers were quite pleasantly surprised when they did their returns. The cuts were targeted to preserve wealth for the middle and lower classes.\n\nI could go on for another 100 pages but you get the idea and I get crabby writing for free.\n\nI will leave you with the caution that it’s best if you doubt and question any data and any stats coming from our government. Those are seldom legit. If the data comes from a study, always look to see who paid for it. And how large the sample size was; how were the participants selected? We are all on our own when it comes to ferreting out info.\n\nOh Canada!\n\nYou’re welcome.

As MAGA should be taking NOTE the border IS NOT WIDE OPEN. Border patrol has their work cut out for them for sure. But the fear mongering that people are just walking in simply isn’t true. \n Of course we’ll have some that sneak in desolate areas. Just as we have at the Northern border. That’s a fact that can never be 100% stopped. \n THEIR government should be stopping them from crossing THEIR BORDERS. Every single country they pass through also should be STOPPING THEM. \n The US needs to get tuff in these Latin American countries that are not securing their own borders. We can’t stop them from coming… only from getting in.

Because their country has became socialize and they have no freedom, that's why they are trying to come in. Let them in to vote Republicans so we can stay c free

It’s horrific how these ppl are forced to live, that is NOT life..reading the comments, it’s disheartening to see. Put yourselves in their shoes! Ask yourself many questions. Would you live your life under a corrupt government? Would you allow the Mexican police/gangs/drug lords, to walk in your home, kill your children, your family, got no reason and get away with it? Would you want to struggle just to feed your baby? Would you want to live how they live? Your country, my county is huge. But hey, it all comes down to greed and politics, right? It’s not about having compassion, it’s about these ppl taking your jobs, homes..am I right? These ppl work for Pennie’s a day, would you? We all deserve a good life, no? If you said no, then where is your God? Where is your compassion? Where is your kindness? Where is your LOVE? Oh how our world would be a much happier place if everyone thought like me. Yes, and sadly, it takes money and many other factors. \nBut if we go back 300-500 years when the white settlers came, took our land (oh I know I’m going to receive backlash and grief, hatred and stripe, and that’s ok) as a Native American person, my ppl could have fought and have y’all sent back to where y’all came from, and WE wouldn’t be living on shitty pieces of land, but every day we are grateful for what we have…don’t call me a savage, most of my family are white just like y’all LOL! But if we won, made you go back to where you came, would you have gone freely? Hell no! We HAD rights, and it was taken away….and take a long hard look at what’s happening today! Country against country..race against race..ppl no longer believe in God and our world is turn to shit…ppl walk past a homeless child and do fuck all (I’ve seen it many times..and yes, I help) stop being so fucking greedy, if you want to help take care of your homeless, then get off your asses and start helping your homeless ppl…will that happen? He’ll no! Why? Because YOU people who are against these ppl who want a better life in America, won’t even make an effort to help your own, now isn’t this called “calling the kettle black” because you simply walk past them, you stare at them with disgust! So don’t be hypocrites! And don’t go and make comments about acting like you truly care for your homeless when you couldn’t give two-shits about your own! \nSad, really fucking sad!

But who should make their country nice for you to come and live in

As true as this is, there is ZERO context being provided in this video. She didn’t need to provide names but being that vague only makes this convo extremely surface level and easy to manipulate because it comes across as vapid and agenda-serving when both the clips and the commentary BOTH are severely lacking in nuance and context! \n\nBy the way, Alberta is a CONSERVATIVE stronghold province. All of Western Canada basically is. The East is the Liberal stronghold. So no, Canada isn’t actually a liberal country, tbh.

You have to replace the Americans dying of fentanyl with new ppl. Over 5 million people are coming from 160 countries. America no longer exists, it has become an old memory.

I'm not racist, but please keep these people out of the country if they're not coming here legally

These people are trying to escape genocide over there with those drug lords. What there doing is not really right but they need to come up with a solution to the problem. If they join forces like this in there own country things can get done. Get rid of corruption in high places first. That's the problem.

What did he think was gonna happen? You were already in the US, which comparatively speaking to Central America, is much safer by every metric. Why would you then leave the US to come to Canada? Of course you can’t seek asylum because you’re not a refugee. \n\nDon’t get me wrong, I believe that if people follow the legal procedures for the country they wish to reside in, they should at least have a chance at residency. However, this guy is an economic migrant, and if he wishes to live in Canada then you shouldn’t be filing for asylum, you need to apply for residency. But the fact that he was already undocumented in the US means that he risks deportation if he re-enters. Congrats, you played yourself and you’ve put your family in jeopardy. \n\nAbusing the asylum claims system is going to ruin it for those who actually need help. Get it right or go back home.

They come as refugees then terrorism.....muslims only obey sheriya rules not countries rule

I'm sorry but us American people we can't even get help but when these immigrant comes in they give them Free Housing free insurance free money and that's BS let it be the other way around going to where their country is that they're not going to lift a finger to help any American

If we think it’s bad here in the USA, just imagine how MUCH WORSE it is in their own country, for them to want to come to the U.S. so desperately. What I’ve witnessed, is that immigrants cherish the USA more than U.S. Citizens! WE TAKE SO MUCH FOR GRANTED HERE, and most are not even happy!

If you notice all Hispanic countries are in poverty, and for some reason they think the United States is their back up plan , but the sad part is ,when they get here they come with fucked up attitudes, they bring racism and crime,they come with the attitudes that the United States owe them something, this is the fleecing of America

Canada's immigration policy is shit, it seeks out people from shit hole countries that dont know anything but crime and corruption and their come here wanting to bring their beliefs along with their way of life which was corrupt trying to turn Canada into the shit hole they left. Canada can do better by not seeking bottom of the barrel immigration.

Ever heard of a country call Jamaica ??? Its 99 percent black, they have one of the highest homicide rates in the ENTIRE WORLD. Go try living their amongst the locals and come back and tell us the outcome. Thats why I never complain about white people or their racism, I learn to deal with it and move on

Why would u want to come somewhere where that middle and lower class are struggling themselves ? All this does is breed hostility and in the confusion real enemies could be slipping thru. Garnering some real hate from ppl, eventually it will spill over and then you’ll be in a country where it’s citizens are armed to the teeth even the 5 yr old, and you won’t have a thing to ur name. Sounds like an awesome life to me…

Then after the people come to America. They are the only people vacationing once or twice a year to their Homeland. Please help our Americans who are living outdoors against their will. Care for our own first. Then we will be strong to grow gardens and have far.s to help Bless surronding countries. My nieghbors are always visiting their homeland. Make sense please\nJulieKilburn

Because the GOP has been using the Border as all types of propaganda to get their base excited about migrants crossing the Border. People from other countries hear all this nonsense they're talkin about open borders oh, of course we're going to have hordes of people coming in because they think it's real. I blame Trump

Come to a black country like Nigeria, where I am, and suffer extortion at best or get kidnapped at worst. Then you'll see that going on vacation to Europe is not such a bad idea.

It is not that simple. Basically, many immigrants have unrealistic expectations, and come from countries with non-western cultures. If you want a job - get your CDL card.

It's time for the Americans to storm the Venezuela border and take over their country since they can't run it properly. We don't need to have a war with these other countries where these refugees are coming from, we just need to take their country from their leaders and make it ours and call it us territory and apply our laws and statutes and civil rights to that country. Where there's a will there's a way. Sometimes you have to fight craziness with bizarre actions, and it works.

You voted for Chavez you voted for your ignorant President Maduro! Now go back to your country and dealt with it there! Go there and protest there! In your country ! Don’t come here to be fed for free!!! We have enough people that we need to help that are US citizens!!!!

So you were telling me that they’re letting all these people come in and we got to pay for their housing for their healthcare and set them for life with all of our tax dollars, and we are taking veterans out of VA’s and putting immigrants that did not fight for this country in there everybody say thanks to Biden

Bring them over ! There’s space ! They deserve the right to come over. This country is for all ! Who are we to keep them out of a country that was built on backs of minorities! Bring them over.

America will get what coming go to their country

Sad to see people leaving their countries, but we can't take everybody in when we have our own Americans are struggling days in and days out. Our veterans and homeless are much need helps tremendously. This is what happens when you have a weak president with weak border patrol. He sent out invitations now here they come.

I mean if you're going to come to another country to be safe cuz you're running from your other country you need to be respectful and thankful that thete is a place that will accept you and they need to be respectful of the laws and people in that country..instead they come in and it's a free for all take mwn women children run over them take them Kidnap them I've been bombarded I've been harassed by these individuals and I don't like it and I'm not I don't feel sorry for them anymore I used to have compassion but now it's the younger generation and they're all you know it's hard to tell who or trust any of them I could not I could never trust him just like the Asians you can't trust him you can't the Asians are all spies the Young Generation the old ones 30-40 years ago yeah they had they were running for a reason but now these young ones are are brainwashed

I see a lot of them many many they come here they have bad attitudes they spy around on people they follow people they get their own sex trafficking rings and prostitution Rings going they do what they do when they're in their country they do it here I could understand if they were working or you know did something positive yeah they may be illegal but they got to go through the regular system you claim Asylum get a job you don't go follow people around you don't go scan real close behind them and they don't even know you're standing behind him that's what I've experienced little short brown people they'll stand right behind your butthole in a store and they won't even know they're there and then you feel something behind you and then they act like they're there standing like right under your underarms and they act like oh oh no it's okay you're okay it's okay what the f*** you know I can understand if you're from a country where your lives are in jeopardy but you come here and you pull the same s*** on us on us Americans that's what I don't like y'all need to get your country back take your country back

We can turn to savage too when it comes to protect our country ? If a foe from within strike a blow at her glory,\nDown, down, with the traitor that dares to defile\nThe flag of her stars and the page of her story!❤??????????????????????????????????????❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I have an idea. If 1 of them come to our country, we will make their government pay for them. I guarantee their government will do something to stop them not come to our border. Their government is suck.

Ok, did you hear correctly, they said Venezuelans crossing Mexicos border! Stop blaming only Mexicans. So many other countries come illegally. While you don’t apply or accept a hard work job somebody else is more than willing. It’s not their fault their good at work. Plus most our homeless choose to be that way due to drugs or mental illness. Who knows what else. So does Venezuelans sound like Mexicans, nope, or get your ears checked.

Its great we are letting people move here by why are we going to shit hole countries for immigrants? All of these shit hole countries where people are coming from knows corruption and crime, if these is the best we can do, close the doors

It is crazy so where we going to do this let them break into America. All we have to do with stop letting them stay there babies citizens. 0 + 0 -does not equal 1. Give away too many freebies. Only way this is going to stop in stop letting them good job. This is a f****** invasion. Pretty some the United States would be theirs and we would be. Third-class citizens in our own. It will look like the country they're going to Total hell. America better wake up and wake up very fast. No other country will ever let this happen especially China. We better get and when it comes to stuff like this.

We need to change the laws, they wouldn't try this in Japan. No other country allows this. They such hard workers, fix your own country. Stay home, come over here still in resources !!!

Lmao jesus its never dawned on me that a black person would go to a white country for vacation lmao. Goodness I agree why would anyone do such a thing. Even white people leave their countries to come to ours. Aint nothin in the caucus for us...

Wake up Americans. We the People demand the removal of the entire Biden administration. The Biden administration is America's worst enemy. They're all corrupt criminals and have put the entire country in danger. You want your children growing up with this!!??. We need to make a stand and come together and demand the removal of Joe Biden and his cesspool company. NOW

I'm so sick about all this racism that's all you guys ever talk about anymore but it's okay when black people talk about white people on TV podcast all over and nobody says anything that I'm I see black people hating on white people more than anyting and where is all this white supremacist I never hear of a white supremacist doing a drive-by shooting and this is coming from a Latino I'm Puerto Rican and I love my country the United States of and if you don't like it get the hell out

people think that America is no good but this is proof that America is great compared to other countries170 countries have invaded our country it goes to prove that America is the greatest country to live in in the world Otherwise why do they come here by the Millions answer because of a little thing called the constitution of America we have the right to live free and their country their suppressed and their leaders control their every move so you should be proud to be an American

Let's go brandon??? we're lead to believe this is all accidental, coincidentally trumps talking about fixing it?this was all a ruse and a set up, someone comes and trashes the country while someone else promises to fix it, even dems will support Trump if this gets bad enough

On the serious side now. What if you lived in a country that was so poor you barely could live. Now what if you were a family man who couldnt provide for your loved ones. Then you hear about this place where its called the land of opprtunity and has the best economy in the world. Thanks to Joe. You can fact check that too. Would you give everything you had to find a better way of life for yourself and love ones or would you just waste at the side just to die.? Thats a deep question for many because they could not answer it. Be grateful you not one of these poor people who have it a lot harder and have less to almost nothing but believe The United states of American could help them. Trump supported a wall on the West Coast thur Texas . I wonder why at times . I have been around the world and one thong i can say about walls. They are not built to keep people from coming in country but built to keep the people from leaving the country and a wall signifies communism. Think about that onebfor a minute.

I might be homeless in the future with how prices and the economy is going now. I don't know what attracts these immigrants their country must be total shit for them to be so desperate to come here. The US been going downhill since 9/11 it feels like.

Where those people comes from ?? There's a war in their country ? Was their country's poor ?

I have been told personally by illegal immigrants on more than one occasion that they are the reason America is so great. I always ask them if that was true, then how come their country is so F' ed UP?

CNN you Gotta stop. We know the United States runs with immigrants or else this country ain’t shit. There’s a lot of people that don’t want to work so there’s definitely an agenda for all these people to come up this way. There are agents everywhere you go and whisper in your ear, and that whisper was for immigrants to come up to the United States for a cheap labor. Because there’s a lot of people that don’t want to work so it’s all part of the agenda news. People are just fake as they are.?️
