Dude, just separate the families on one side, the single people on another side have them make a single file line instead of pushing through the military and being disrespectful to the same people who can help them. That is way too many people to handle at once y’all should’ve just stayed in your country and had the military go into your country instead of you people trying to come into the country and causing this chaos, how do you expect the US to help you if we don’t have proper planning with the expectation of so much immigration. I sympathize with y’all that your own governments don’t help you but clearly the people that are in power suck at doing their job, so hopefully y’all can take control of the goddamn situation, Texas is a big ass state that has enough land to have immigration. Go in there. The problem is how people are going into the state like you can defy authority in this case nah Bruh.

often times national growth comes and the expense of the middle class and a increase in inequality much like the US

Having dated someone from Venezuela who migrated to Columbia and was violent, nah sorry, take your trash man and swap him for a respectful one lol I helped how I could even if he came on a visa just to be betrayed by him. I’m getting more guns ??‍♀️ \n\nTell your Govenrment to fix their corruption and don’t bring that shit to the US especially when nations are breaking agreements with us and making the US dollar lose strength. So no, I’m sorry but handle your shit and stop acting like wild animals. \n\nI personally do not want this Venezuelan/ columbian here. I’ll be more than happy to shoot him or swap him for an obedient, respectful family.

I emigrated to Canada in 2020 and I like to live here but I plan to relocate to US in this year. And there is only one reason for that - real estate. It is literally impossible to buy a house in Greater Toronto Area where you need at least 1 million to buy something decent.

One of the things that I don't get is why Canadian businesses hardly made any effort to explore other markets other than the Canadian & US market. Canada is located in the middle between Asia & Europe and they also are located pretty close to Latin American countries. Yet very few Canadian companies are willing to expand beyond the US market. I feel like Canadian companies are too complacent and like the video said risk averse. Having said that, I don't think being risk averse is such a bad thing. At least the local banks can withstand crises better compared to a high risk business environment like the US. There are always pros and cons in every environment to me.

I Don't Understand Why They Think it's So, Great Here Right Now !! It's Certainly NOT The PROMISE LAND !! They All Need To Grow a Pair & Go FIGHT For There Homeland MAN UP !! JUST As, Most Of Our Ancestors Did When We, Fought The British aka, The American Revolution. & Fast Forward For Us, Southerners Fighting Them Damn Yankees.. Hey, Like the Song Says You, Gots To Fight For Your RIGHT To PARTY !! Send them Back Home With Plenty Of Beans , Band-Aides & Bullets & They Will Either Sink Or Swim Your Not Welcome in this Country Unless You, Learn to SPEAK OUR LANGUAGE & FOLLOW OUR COUNTRY'S LAW'S & Come to Our Country the RIGHT WAY , COMPREHEND SENIOR TILL Then, Audios Amigos !!

We have a leader who seems to be deeply invested in shutting down our oil and gas industry. He shut down oil and gas. Which put hundreds of people out of work. Then he slapped us with a carbon tax. He told us the carbon tax dollars would be invested toward producing green energy projects and manufacturing jobs. So far, the Carbon tax went up again, he banned plastic straws, he’s hitting our farmers with heavy restrictions on fertilizer, because it’s not green enough. \nMany of our indigenous communities have been living for years with contaminated water. He promised he was going to ensure the indigenous communities have access to clean drinking water. He has not fulfilled that promise. \nHe’s bidding $30 billion dollars to hopefully sign a deal to manufacture electric car batteries for Volkswagen. \nHe’s investing in other projects, as well. Unfortunately, he’s only investing in eastern provinces. \nSo far, there has been no investments in western provinces yet. Many of the out of work oil and gas workers in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba are still waiting on the jobs they were promised. \nLow wages, high inflation, high taxes and high income housing is bringing a lot of us to our knees. \nOur leader is corrupt. It seems like every week there is another corrupt scandal he and his government are involved in. \nI can’t speak for every Canadian, but I can say with absolute certainty that a large number of us are sick and tired of our current leader. Most of us live with the hope that if our leader can get voted out. Canada may have a chance to go back to the way our beautiful country used to be.

Who wantto have a country like the US.... As a canadian, I'm more scared of being your neightboor than scared about foreign investment... Keep your inequal sociaey for you...

Build towns that are surrounded by walls give them a small space to live and build factories. Allow these people to have a small check and live and work in those small cities say in the middle of nowhere. Make them work for 1 year in those places and as long as they do good not crime and show up for work and take care of there living space then allow them to become citizens. That way you weed out the criminals and non hard workers. In 1 year you will have a good idea of who should be staying. Also its them paying for there spot and contributing to the us economy. Once they become contributing members of society and they get on there feet out of each check they will take a small amount to pay for all the resources that were used to help them. Also I belive the majority of the ones let in should be women and the young children. If I don't get free help working full time struggling they shouldn't either. Let's make america a manufacturing power house like we're were in the past and the only reason we are a super power now. Also do the same thing for criminals and the homeless teach them worth ethic and how to follow laws instead of giving them handouts to go buy more dope

Yeah, I've been talking to a Canadian over discord for almost 2 years now trying to learn more about the country and what he told me was shocking. Canadian make about 25% less and pay 33% more in taxes then American and somehow a house in the middle of goddamn nowhere cost as much as a house in Portland. If you live in NYC, SF, or LA yeah you can forget about buying a house but its not like in America housing is unaffordable everywhere like in Canada. In Texas, you can get a big beautiful house for 300k, the catch being that real estate taxes is really high and you still be paying that even after the mortgage been paid off. Florida is affordable but hurricanes, Cleveland is really cheap despite a good reputation, and a house in the rural areas is easily under 100k. Canada pretty much have no houses under 300k which is made worse by the fact that they make less, taxed more, investment is harder + more expensive, and it actually hard to establish credit because they don't have looser standard like in the US.

Invite all the nice Mexican people’s to this side then make Lake Mexicana Resort Country with a few Tzar Bombas! Eh eh right! I knew you’d think that was a good idea too. \nI mean obvious solution can’t we just buy Mexico and make it part of US territory? Or do we not want Mexico? Doesn’t I have any natural resources? No Not really I guess. I mean Corona is ok. And I do like lite blue Agave.

Canada is basically another state of US at this point. Canada has independent domestic policies just like any US state but foregin policis are Washington lead. Canada has great educational instuation just like many other US state but ultimately, the graduates leave for better states in the US to get better pay. Almost all export of Canada is to US and almost all import are from same US suppliers from Asia. Some will say Canada is very different from US in the way people act and live their life. That is true but even inside US, California is very different from Texas and New York is very different from Iowa. Just goes to show different states have different lifestyle but are still part of the same country.\nThis is not a bad thing, in fact Canada is lucky to have access to the biggest market of the world. Being under US security umberlla means no one will attack you. Canada's government know this so they made policies that lead to integration with US economical and defence system.

Canada's government is a bunch of rich people who's only concern is to make themselves richer. Then lie about what they did so they can get voted back in so they can steal more from taxpayers. Then the next government is forced to cut everything from education, to medicine, look like huge Aholes, so then we vote the idiots back in again that keep stealing from us. Not allot of time for improvement with all that going on.

Shows that they have no real heart to flee they own country like that. It’s pathetic and we don’t need any more punks in America the alphabet people already got us looking weak!

We should have a real border just like 99.9% of the rest of the world. It isn’t right to give up in your home land and think the US will wipe your tears and asses for you! Stand the F up and take your country back.

$57/h value per hour are mostly white Canadians not the immigrants and colored people. Immigrants are making huge mistakes by coming here in Canada and living their good jobs back home. If US today stop investing in Canadian market, the Canada would become like Eastern European countries or may be South American countries. In Canada same goes for jobs. If local government post a job for cleaner then they ask some post secondary education???. Not worth to live here very expensive country. Only people having a good time here are government employees and politicians.

This country seemed like a paradise when I was growing up, our family had a doctor, we could get healthcare access quickly, my parents bought a beautiful home for cheap, and my dad started a successful company, while my mom was able to stay home and raise us.\n\nThese days both partners need to relentlessly work to even afford a place where raising a family is extremely difficult, healthcare treatment takes hours of waiting, and costs of basic services are through the roof. In BC we have only 1 government-run car insurance corporation, and they charge me $500 a month for my work vehicle, despite me having a nearly clean record.

Oh mate, there is no place like home. Unfortunately, many of us just keep on searching. People are the problem. If you come across the wrong people you are unlikely to like the place. Unfortunately they are everywhere. You just have to put up with a shit situation.

can't understand why people do things like this.... why on earth would somebody willingly go to the US to live there. Their country must be 100% on fire, under water while falling down a cliff into a shark tank

I hate to see people being treated like this by their own government, but we need to have border security. However, I would love for there to be a safe place for them to go that’s close to the US in the mean time as they go through the process of becoming a US citizen.

I’m from Juárez, and to be honest, I’m really tired of seeing this, thanks to them we are having lot of trouble on the city. I would like for they to get deported back to Venezuela but Mexico won’t do nothing about it, I’m hoping that USA at least can help us to get them deported back to Venezuela.

They need to pull these people to the side & take them in a room & show them how horrible the us is doing right now, hell you got to places like California & new york even chicago where i am homelessness is a everyday thing, people here are barely scraping by they need to start banding together to fight against the government tierney & the drug cartels making life hard for them in their own countries instead of trying to ram their way into the us & over crowd us.

Y’all already make more money then the people who were actually born in the US y’all get thousands and we only get hundreds of dollars y’all take our homes and jobs like bro stay in Mexico foh ?

Something Big Has To Be Taking Place There, For This Amount Of People Swarming Like That! The Only Time I’ve Seen Something Like That , Was In A Zombie Apocalypse Movie Or The Movie ,”I AmLegend”! All I’m Saying Is Something Is Happening Down There, That The Media And The Powers That Be Allegedly, Doesn’t Want Us Who Are Watching To Know What Exactly Is Happening…

If they want to be American so bad, we should just Annex Mexico, not like anyone would or could stop us.

Imagine if the tables were turned. Imagine something terrible was happening in the US like a war or viral outbreak. We all know Americans would try to enter in a mass entry into Mexico . Especially if global warming continues and the northern hemisphere is gonna be an ice age , Americans would definitely start fleeing to Mexico in riots like this

Move to a country like the US??? Lol?

YES..I FEEL SORRY FOR THEM, BUT THEY NEED TO UNDERSTAND YOU CAN'T JUST COME ACROSS PEOPLES BORDERS LIKE THAT, WE HAVE RULES AND LAWS HERE TO PROTECT US ..THEY HAVE TO FIND WAYS TO MAKE LIFE BETTER FOR THEM...

It's too many people coming into the United States. Highly overcrowded. The US needs to start taking care of their own citizens first. There's homeless Americans right here that are citizens, there are hungry people right here in the US that are American citizens. They need to start helping their own first. These Americans should not be without anything. And then United States is quick to help other states before they help they own. It's really a shame. And half the people that come here from other countries don't even like Americans. There shouldn't be not one homeless American citizen in America. The country has billions and billions of dollars and they should be able to house their own citizens.

The beginning of the end. These people need sanctuary, safety, help. America wastes billions on stupidity. \nWhile people are crying to have a better life all of us sit and watch the kardashians like idiots and Hollywood to make them richer. We need to change now.

Why didn't they unload on them? Any other country probably would have. Where are they going to live? Our fields and forests are being razed. There's other ways to go about this. EVERYONE knows that if you need to sneak in somewhere than you're doing something wrong. America has enough problems as is. Not just with other countries but the one's that are deep inside our borders. Let's start by not hating women which can be broken into subcategories like getting paid as much as a male coworker and reproductive rights. Now their country's are aligning with all of the other countries that hate us. We need to know WHO we're letting in.

This is when you use rubber bullets and gas. They know Biden and his woke pals are sweet so they're trying us. We really need a real wall to keep these POS people out. What's funny is they come here and act like they're so proud of their homeland. Thanks Obama for the coup in Venezuela that led to this shit. I mean if no one sees that the government needs to be flushed of all the POS reps that are literally working to hasten the demise of our country. All to fulfill some fake prophesy

This is definitely a time where I love the comments. OMG I feel same as all I wrote. How dare they fight to get over here like they US citizens and belong here. Why they forcing themselves over here. I'm sorry but are we the only connecting country???. We got way too much of our own shidt going on. They trying to bully their way over here. So do we need the military or our prisoners out there building that daMn wall???

Landlords gotta go they are the reason for the housing crisis not immigrants. Some landlords own over 50 properties while most Americans don't even own their own home. Landlords gotta go get a job like the rest of us

Canada and the US operate under the same jurisdiction. ICE literally will drive across and start collecting Mexicans like Pokémon

Incredible. Hey Trudeau I hope you have a moment to review the unanimous statements posted here.\nA serious shortage of housing and a health system that can't be fixed .\nI'm no expert but probably 20 nurses , doctors and surgeons if spoken to have some insight on what they are talking about.\nIt was four years ago my family physician looked over the X-rays of my back and he said that if I'm don't have surgery within two months I will end up with a life altering disability.\nHaven't had the surgery and it hasn't even been discussed with my surgeon.\nMind you it's a 42 month waiting time to even get into his office.\nBring them all bring everyone Trudeau you pile of crap. \nMaybe the country would be better off if instead of spending 6k a night on your hotel and just spend 4k like the rest of us working stiffs

Where do all these illegal immergent think they are going to work and at? There are onMy so many peach pickers and toilet custodian jobs for their of low education and job skill type to I've on. It's not like the US Government is going to give the free money and housing. Ha!

Looks like the entire population of Venezuela has fled for the US. \nWhat’s going on there that makes this preferable?

This makes me sick w disgust cuz now they’re just polluting our country like they did theirs. As soon as the US started started making us press 1 for English and 2 for Spanish, I KNEW there was an agenda brewing and here it is coming to fruition. Why is Biden still in office? Get his crinkly old self out of trumps chair!

It already feels like Mexico, Cuba, and other countries here in the US. Everywhere you go all you hear is TATATATATATATATATATATATATATATAT OY IEEEEEEEE AYE DIOS MIO???????

The US has limited resources like every other country.\nWe can't support millions more.

Reality. Really. Maga right. Let's see unemployment numbers down nation wide since Trump took office. Foreclosures another all time low. Employment is up. Programs that Trump and his republican mates took away to help now not only back in firm place but helping Americans who weren't wealthy and paying for it are now successfully employed, own their homes and contribute fairly with appropriate taxes. People can't find housing??? Programs are out there for those who had foreclosure on them because of Trump's unyielding to constantly tax those not making six digits. Also our country lost over one million innocent men,women, children and infants because Trump REFUSED to acknowledge COVID. Care to speculate how many of them were republicans thinking how could I of believed him??? One father stated after burying his wife who died from it said this. We believed him then my wife of fifty years contracted it and died quickly and our kids who like us who believed him were told had this been taken seriously in the beginning it would of never become this severe. They became democrats.

As a Canadian I find this utterly terrible. These migrants will either add to the chaos of the mass housing crisis, crime and antisocial behaviour Stateside which will ultimately spill onto Canadian borders. We just shut down Roxham road a few weeks ago yet these ILLEGAL ALIANS KEEP CLIMBING ACROSS CANADA US BORDER. CANADIANS AND AMERICANS NEED TO UNITE TO KICK THESE MIGRANTS BACK TO WHERE THEY CAME FROM. WE DONT HAVE HOUSING OR THE SOCIAL ASSISTANCE THEY REQUIRE AND WE DO NOT WANT THEM AS ILLEGALS. IF THEY WANT ENTRY APPLY LIKE NORMAL HUMANS AND STOP ACTING LIKE RATS. IM TIRED OF THESE REFUGEES COMING INTO CANADA TAKING UP ALL MY TAX MONEY YET I, A CANADIAN BORN WHOS FAMILY IMMIGRATED PROPERLY INTO THIS COUNTRY IN THE 1940 HAS TO SUFFER AND TAKE HOME LESS THAN HALF OUR PAY CAUSE TAXES EAT THE REST THAT GO TO THESE IDIOTIC MIGRANTS. I HATE THEM.

It's similar in the UK too.what pisses me off the most is the way these people think they are owed a good life but want it handed to them.they like us are owed NOTHING. Americans and Brits have had to work hard for the lives we have so how can these migrants honestly expect to just be given everything? Stupid? ignorant? either is accurate but what they definitely ARE is LAZY

Okay let me get to the point I understand immigrants that migrate from other places that are suffering and so on the only thing I am against once we have immigrants in this country like us and even Canada we as US citizens and in some cases the Canadian citizens we be left in the back burner while the people that are not from here they tend to get first priority which is not they get more of the services then us citizens especially when it comes to food stamps health insurance housing jobs and so on. I understand they're human like everybody else but don't cast us to the side just to cater to them.

The US and Mexico. Gotta come up with a massive immigration reform. Like NOW! \nI'm a mexican, and I see the migrants coming through everyday. 3 days ago, a guy was yelling in my apt complex at night asking for anything since they were on their way to the US. We as mexican are tired of all the massive caravans, tired of our government allowing tens of thousands in. We grant them asylum, but they don't want to be here. They would rather go and try to make it into the US. So. I my self am from Juarez so I've grown up with immigration my entire life.

So sad , millions and millions of people are suffering. And no one cares. And then we as Americans let idiots lead us and run our country like Biden and trump and all the other corrupt treasonous politicians. It’s time the free people of the world take a stand and take back what is ours.

Maybe we should have taken out Maduro. He's evil, he's not a democrat, he's not even a socialist. A socialist would not be involved in robbery of the state oil company! He's a disgusting mafioso crook just like the villains in charge of Cuba. Did you know that Cuban officials run an expensive airline service to Nicaragua that is the only path out of the country on the highway to the US. The officials know that desperate Cubans will sell their only home which very likely was bought by relatives abroad scraping together money to send to their family. I am usually very much against war... but gosh darn if we could just take out true tyrants without invading the whole place, it might in some rare circumstances be a gift rather than a grift.

We can go over there like they do US wtf they would cyt of our heads

For 4 years, some idiot stood up on stage and told us they were storming our borders. Well, this is what real storming looks like. But thanks to that idiot, nobody takes it seriously anymore.
