The government is letting this happen. It didn't happen under Trump. We better all learn Spanish.

Build back better part 392

If they were only like the French, they would use that energy against their own government to make things better. Instead, a bunch of cowards

If all those people used all that energy to make their own countries better they wouldn't have to be destroying the USA. Are they really that stupid to think there is room, housing and services for half the world there. They don't look that bad off to me. I'm glad they were stopped because this is most definitely an invasion. Deport all who crossed illegally.

Vancouver is a depressing place!! I am Canadian and proud of it!! The government is not kind to its citizens. It is like the US. It is cold! Yes!! But at least we are not being shot at!! But tgat will happen in time! Crime is fucked here! Tooooo much!! I do love tge music though! Especially in the seventies!! April Wine, Prism Triumph Rush!! I appreciate you being honest, but until there is a better country available, I will have my passport as CANADIAN. Good luck!! If I would move, it would be Vietnam!! Maybe I can be of use there!!! God bless you!!

These people need to have a civil war in their own countries to free themselves from tyrants just like Americans did. Stop thinking that coming to this country will give you a better life. Start thinking, We need to sacrifice for our children and generations after us in our own country. It’s simple and it works. Many people need to sacrifice themselves to better their families. It’s a shame not many are willing to accept it and actually do it.

We see this because American media and politics constantly show the world a false narrative that they can just walk right into a better life bypassing millions of people waiting patiently on a list.

i do tend ta agree but, you cant blame people for wanting a better life. this country is so much better than where they were. i think instead of forcing their way into here or there, they should take over their corrupt governments and if they cant, maybe we should take them over?

They're better off in South Am. Where are they going to housed? Jobs? Smells like Human trafficking brewing

We need better immigration policy. These illegal swarms are unsafe. Build a wall to protect the border from illegal crossing, make people cross at ports, streamline deportation and asylum requests and staff up the courts.

Wait till they find out it's not BETTER here...?

We better take our country back soon or its going to be too late

Canada is so much better

can never blame people for wanting a better life.

WE DONT EVEN HAVE HOUSING OR JOBS OURSELVES I PROMISE YALL LIFE IS BETTER JUST GET AWAY FROM THE CARTELS DOWN THERE

Please suggest a better agency for apply AIP

Damn only if the USA will know how bad life is in Mexico and all they ask for is a better life in the usa and to live better and be in peace and have a good life for themselves and their kids

I am all for those who want to migrate to our country. However, we need to fix problems at home. How and why is it we are allowing migrants to effortlessly acquire a higher standard of living than the majority of natural born citizens by crossing an imaginary line? I know there are families who risk their lives and work tirelessly to provide something better for them and theirs. As a father of three young children, trust me I get it! However, natural born citizens get whatever’s at the bottom of the barrel compared to the amenities given to immigrants. It needs to stop at least for now.

Instead of criminalising refuge seekers, the gov should use them, set a wage that's lower than the standard, charge for their services at the standard, for a period of time, enough for these ppl to get their footing , use the difference to fund programmes and tackle different aspects of the problem, keep tabs on families and individuals by making ppl register, use them to fix infrastructure and do jobs that otherwise go unfilled, many of these people are skilled and hard workers, they will have a reason to stay within the boundaries of society, the country will have more money circulating, but they situation is being misused, it's an opportunity to get ahead, it's an opportunity to increase natural citizens skills and living conditions, to create other jobs and industries, and to fix the economy, strengthen economic and political ties with the countries these ppl are coming from, and also charge a tax in whatever way can be done to these countries per person they recieve.things like housing, many of these workers can build houses, and that gap between lowered wage and standard wage or tax for entering America illegally, could be used to fund better public housing, etc.

Vote Republican and your kids will have a better future America.

You forgot 1 major point-\nAt least here in Canada, we don't have to live in fear of gun violence. We don't send our children only for them to be massacred in their schools. At least our politics doesn't revolve around Jesus, guns and abortion (though our politicians are also crap). At least we don't have to break bad to pay for even simple medical procedures. At least our cities aren't overrun by homeless while our rural areas are not overrun by hillybillies. \n\nWhile yes in general Americans are richer, the fact is that only the top 10 percent live better. Not the homeless piling up in the cities, not the 3rd world shanties in the Appalachians and south and certainly not the thousands living in the American jail system. It's crazy how bad a country can be despite being rich.\n\nI was born and raised in the US. I have lived in Canada and much poorer countries like Spain and Portugal. Let me tell you, Americans live the worst life out of all. In much poorer Spain, people still have universal education till university, good healthcare, good public transportation system and they don't have to eat the frozen crap most Americans eat. Spanish people eat fresh meat, fruits, cheese and vegetables and drink some of the best wine, despite earning much less than Americans and working astonishingly low hours. Moreover, their cities are livable, not like the concrete jungle of Texas. \n\nYes America is rich but DUDE, Its seriously third world, if you arent rich and successful.

Poor people are seeking a better life. can’t blame them. Blame the airhead Biden and Harris and the blind and dumb democrats

I’m Mexican and I hate to see my people fleeing our country due to corruption . These people ain’t fleeing cause it’s good out there. Our culture is so rich but the Mexican government has to do better . The Mexican government is like that one adult everyone hates cause it’s so irresponsible.

I'm a Canadian living in the UK now. I love Canada with every piece of my heart but couldn't see myself ever being anything other than working poor there. I went to college but couldn't get a job in my field so had to take whatever minimum wage I could get, couldn't afford rent let alone buying a property so moved in with my parents and there isn't any support from the government for average citizens, only if you're an immigrant, disabled etc. I'm not against helping immigrants, disabled people or those that need it, just sucks that if you don't fall into certain categories it means you'll always struggle in your minimum wage job.\nLife in the UK isn't perfect but I was able to find a decent job here, the public transit is actually usable, phone plans and other bills/groceries tend to be cheaper and the working conditions are significantly better. Like I get 32 paid days off a year in my average job which is just wild to me! In Canada my sister who is a police officer only gets 15 days off a year and that's a lot compared to other people, like I never use to get any paid time off at my previous jobs. I miss parts of living in Canada but for the time being the UK is making my life a lot easier.

I'm curious about cost of living comparison. Because earning more doesn't mean anything if prices are higher.\n\nEDIT: Also, the median would be a better comparison than the average.

Sad part is that any “anti” immigration stance is just unamerican. But this is obviously out of control. Make an Ellis island type facility on the border. Take their name and info with a waiting period to find any criminal records or prior deportations. Give people the chance to do it legally and stop treating them like cattle in make shift camps. Good god we can do better

I live in rural Newfoundland. At 23 years old i was able to buy a house for 239k with a 12k down payment. I was only able to do this by saving my money since I started working at 17, although when i started working and saving i never thought that money would go to buying a house. Anyways my point is I was only able to afford this home because i lived with my parents until i bought a house and they were kind enough not to charge me rent, all i had to do was pay for groceries and help out around the house. However paying over 200k for a house in a small community that only has a hardware store grocery store and a gas station with the nearest town that has anything more than that being a 45 minute drive away via highway is insane. I am by far the exception in this generation rather than the rule, and I wish our housing market was better so that people could afford to buy homes without having to luck into such favorable conditions like I did

It feels like life's better in developing countries ?

Perth doesn't represent Australia, Melbourne and Sydney way way way better

Title is misleading, you only lived in Vancouver and you're talking about the whole country already. And you're perception with other countries maybe it's just because you're in another developed country/region, isn't the same with the whole world. Coming from a third world country, Canada and definitely European countries would still be better than where I came from. But good thing for you bro.

You cannot just open a business and expect everything will go well. Obviously investors will invest where the return is better.

Considering our economy is doing better than most of the G7 countries I am not going to dump on our government for a world economic issue. Our idiot in charge is not responsible for the world economic downturn despite far right opinion....

Canada has a way better economy than the USA by a long shot.

Canada is far better than UK in almost every aspect.

They better stop them!they fixing to take this MFER over is what they’re gonna do and if you can’t stop them by telling them that they can’t come in start using other means! tell them to go to the White House since Biden is the one that wants to let them in over here.

If we dont get rid of Trudeau things will only get worse. We gotta do better as Canadians.

The difference is the quality of life in Canada is ranked by multiple organizations as significantly better than in the US. Better Education, Public Healthcare, and a strong economy mean less stress. Health Insurance in the US is hugely expensive. Incomes may be higher in the US, but so are things like the Health insurance, prescriptions etc. Canada has fewer bankruptcies if someone gets sick, and better social benefits for things like maternity leave... We don't have the huge population, but we also don't have many of the huge problems, like large racial conflicts, high crime rates, gun violence and economic discrepancies... And let's not even mention the vast political polarization in the US fed by disinformation and a free-for all social network where 'truth' long ago became not important, whereas winning is everything. Even if a former president needs to organize an attack on Congress... Overall Canada is a more desirable place to live.

Maybe, They'll be Better People,,,Then what we Have,,,.

And how many of them are sleeper agents or just criminals? Have communicable diseases, all manner of issues. Thank Biden, this is so much better.

Much better if you as an educated and clever guy help developing beautiful Africa?? Canada is not a paradise neither is Europa

Hello! When i came to Canada in 1997 the minimum wages was 8 dollars, and the cost of a home was around 200000. Today the minimum wages is 15 dollars, but he cost of a home is about 1 million which is 5 times more than 1997.\n The wages has only doubled. So you are telling me that Canadian people are doing better now than in 1997. People in this country are going backwards instead of forward. There is a total imbalance of wages and home prices.

This is quite a great videos, thanks for sharing it here...\nCanada is more better for me than Uk.

For all of these fellow “Americans” the United States was built on literal immigrants. Where would your racist ass be now if people from all over the world hadn’t traveled to the US for a better chance at a life full of opportunity all those years ago?

We have the natural resources to create energy. Yet Trudeau put a stop to anything that could earn Canada money. With the regulations in place we could produce energy a lot more greener than other countries. Wouldn’t it be better if we have our own oil that is produce cleanly than to rely on other country that don’t care about environmental issues? It’s so simple yet the people have been brainwashed by this government. I live in Quebec and we have so much potential energy wise and we do nothing. Frustrating.

The biden administration has been a disaster we were better off with Orange man Donald Trump

This is what machine were guns invented for . Use them! This is a invasion plain and simple . \n Who in their right mind thinks that people that in their very first act violate a countries law . Will be good citizens.\n Why are these people not fighting to make their home country a better place. This says a great deal about their content of their character.

People don’t realize that these people are running to America thinking it’s better than home. \n\nAll Americans know how corrupt our own government is, so just imagine how corrupt theirs must be if their willing to take a risk here in the states instead.

It seems like it's better to stay in the America

Deport the American looser systemic parasites and let in those looking to work for a better life and opportunities

I think UK is better for me?
