As a white Canadian male I freely admit that many Canadians are racists. Not only that, we are polite but we aren’t very friendly. I try to be nondiscriminatory in my ways. Unfortunately my grumpy disposition usually gets me into trouble.

Langues wars between Anglos and Francophones.\nRising criminality and gun violence related to corruption at the highest levels of political power.\nCrumbling infrastructure such roads, schools, overpasses etc.\nBloated bureaucracy which is increasingly ineffective or inept.\nLack of funding for the arts and scientific research.\nForeign influence from Asia.\nNo independent foreign policy just taking orders from neighbor in the south.\nGeneral ignorance and indifference to what's happening outside the country.\nPathological complacency verging on cerebral atrophy.\nPoor quality of social and inter personal interaction.\nThat's all...

We are in fear for our lives we are political prisoners we want our free room and board Hotel PlayStation big screen TV's food and clothes for our children like all the others got?

I was looking up what national or Black political parties did they have in Canada equivalent to the Black Panther Party?

Cia and zionist system should stop trouble worldwide and their diaspora politics,,so everyone stay home and go for vacation to other country ,,but capitalyst system of zionist say no,,,trouble brings more money

I don't even know how this channel even exist. Didn't Jesse Owens already dominate you? You think racism is even a spec of our political issue. Here's how you stop racism. SHUT UP ABOUT IT!

talks don't work when corruption is at its root. The level of politics.

This is garbage, this people are there trying to bypass law and order. Cause they being lie to also they are there cause political activism.\n\nStupid politicians and tv networks and others are irresponsible

My heart goes out to them. People need to stop with the BS politics. We all know how this is all being manipulated. They are playing chess with the world the rest of us don't even know how to play checkers. Sure, I'll take all these people in on my 100 acres and I will arm them and form my own private army....

Is nothing new even black Africans are discriminated in their own countries by the rich political elite

Venezuela is an extreme socialist problem. They control all prices and hijack the concept of healthy business functions. This causes essential goods like water, food, and toilet paper, even fruits, are totally barren from stores. Socialism there is a nightmare and no one is living life their with decency. Read about it before you judge these people. Try to visit these countries or learn from someone who came from there before you form a solid opinion of politics folks They don’t have the ability to use much of their “freedom” to “fix” things against a rigged system already (some commenters say they need to go back and fix their countries- lots of issues with this). Read up on how South American governments make it almost impossible for their own people to make decent money. Americans are very privileged and that is an understatement. The problem is with these terrible governments and even law enforcement who often get bribed by criminals and many dirty cops in some countries down there. My husband is from South America, and we know Cubans, Brazilians, and Venezuelans who beg America to stay capitalist. That’s why America needs to stay American, and refrain from trying to be socialist.

Canadians are not friendly people. Especially white Canadians ( I am white ). They are boring unfriendly people who are just trying to be polite but behind their politeness is zero friendliness. Leaving after many years here. My priorities changed. Don't want to live here forever.

I live in Ontario and everything is expensive and Toronto is really boring. We have lots of transit projects but they are all delayed. We have too much politics in Canada. Quebec is too frenchy, our National Train Service VIA Rail is outrageously expensive

All I am going to say about what this young lady is saying in this video is this: \n\nI strongly believe that what she is saying is 100% the truth! It is a real shame in this country (Canada) on a whole that racial discrimination still exist (in the political spectrum especially). \n\nThere is actially nothing to take pride in, in terms of racial relations in Canada at all.

Hahaha ? koun Europe jakr Haram kha sakta hy ye tu apny Pakistani Muslims ka he kam hy Pakistan me reh kr politics kr k ??????

This is not a Charity... This is insane, stupid and Anti-America political Agenda... This is a Real Invasion... The Law has been trampled and the Brandon administration is responsible for it...

This is an invasion. NONE of these people are legitimate POLITICAL ASYLUM seekers. \n- El Paso native.

“THE UNITED STATES of AMERICA” is the “CULPRIT” that have created all of the troubles we experience i the WESTERN HEMISPHERE. There is no reason why Central American, Cuba, Haiti, Puerto Rico, are not thriving except political policies created to favor Nations that are considered to be Christian and White! Its strange that at the start of The Ukrainian Russian conflict a million Ukrainians were shipped to the United States with no fanfare, and no reason except to repopulate with people not fed and raised on the United States diet of racial stupidity.

This is sickening to see, i feel bad for those that came here the correct way and got their citizenship. Ive read alot of comments that say well if the usa didnt have such stringent rules to become a citizen, then this wouldnt happen. Thats like applying for a job without giving them any information about yourself, and expecting to get that job with no experience. Is it so bad these people should learn about our history and culture, need to be bi lingual and go through the entire vetting process? The answer is they should because if we went to anyother country, we would be expected to learn about their culture. You cant even live in cananda unless you have a certain amount of money and takes years to become a citizen, why shouldnt our border be any different? The fact of the matter is our government needs to wake up, put politics aside and address the issues. I have no problem with people coming here, it they need to become legel and pay taxes like everyone else. We are sick of paying for people that do nothing to contribute to our economy. If this video doesnt offend you, then you are part of the problem.

who is running the show in America Sikh and Islam. Both above the law. Untouchable they are. They even changed laws on their favors. Every one else are second class ?. Strange we took all religions outside the politic but these two took it in. We created a void and they filled it. ?

I’ve said once and I’ll say it again, if white ppl in Canada had the access to guns the way white Americans do we would have the same problems. This is the main reason why I make it point to post and speak on American politics. Black ppl are not safe/respected anywhere and we need to stick together.

They are there because they were told to come, that America would welcome them and shelter them. This was a lie told for political gains and those responsible should be held accountable.

If too many Mexicans come over construction will be done too fast and there will be more houses made and then house prices will drop and this can't happen because I'm rich and I benefit off of limited housing. If hard working people start making houses at near minum range I won't make enough money. Also if Americans find out how much Mexicans and white people have in common such as; farming guns cousins, they will no longer hate them and it'll be harder to keep a 50/5p split in politics then my friends will lose their power of government officials and we would no longer be able to corrupt America with it's own dollar.its the way we do things we eat, complain and make money till we drop, freedom baby.

Immigrants are migrants. The distinction is paper thin. Meanwhile a degradation of climate largely fueled by the most wealthy countries behavior. Not to forget decades of political meddling and coups throughout central and south America. The chickens have come home to roost. Right? This country will be emptied of everyone and everything not considered necessary or proper or patriotic. The religious nuts are going to make America the theocracy they've always believed it was their birthright. God help us.

I feel sorry for the tax payers in El Paso who have to put up with this in their town. All town resources swallowed up due to a lack of political leadership at the border. Citizens should file a massive class action lawsuit against the Democratic Political Machine that allows your town to be over run.

I'm white, both my parents are white and they, we didn't receive much better treatment here either. I think cronyism is a more accurate description than racism. \nCanadians seem to only accept those within their small, insular groups. You will notice that Canada supports multiculturalism but that means that there are thousands of cliques operating inside a whole. As for WS or microaggressions, don't worry as they will be overtaken by other groups which will won't even bother with being subtle.\nPeople have come here through legitimate channels or across at Roxham Road with the polite RCMP bellhops but failed to research thoroughly the reality of this land. I have talked to or read from newcomers who complain that it's cold and there's no culture. No kidding. (Try living in a logging camp with 300 inches of rain a year.) Suffice to say these newbies are less than thrilled.\nNot sure what to say other than this is the reality and it's quite unlikely to change no matter what Trudeau or others do. ?‍♀️?‍♀️

Democrats told them to come here, these people didn’t just pack a shirt and walk 1000 miles to be told no. It’s sad to me to see desperate people used as political fodder. Shame on Biden and his evil corrupt administration.

She asked why is this happening, One of the first things Donald Trump did when he entered office was take away funding and change our foreign policies with south American countries, making their citizens lives worse than they already were. For many people leaving them little choice. Some are truely political refugees.

I feel like I got cheated. As a newcomer, I thought I was flying to the glorious, safe, polite, law abiding, clean Canada…I landed in chinada instead!

1980,1990,2000 intervention in Latin America political system, dystabolizing their system,evonomic embargo etc.\nWhy are seeing this right now? Oooops!

This country is going to shit! We have mental and drug addiction problems all across America. We have political division driving a wedge between us. And now we have millions of people coming here illegally to add to all the problems we already have!

comment section displays a pretty jingoistic lack of compasion or humanity for the situation, full of lots of naive and easy to say comments for people who very likley have no clue about what situation such people left and what nightmares they have been though along the way....like imagine making it to the us border all the way from venazuela, and i wanna say us foreign policy in the region, along with our economic and political impact makes this whole situation so complicated, there often arent paths for things like immigration or asylum for these groups in many of the countries they pass through, or they get held up in camps for processing that become bizarre legal limbos

All of these points are subjective. I think the point system you used and the subjects you talked about are biased. I would have given the USA a point for innovation and job opportunity. There is more opportunities, because more companies choose the USA. We have a higher population so even thought there is more job opportunities in the USA, it is also very competitive. Your video gave a point to Canada for vacation and maternity leave rather than innovation and job opportunities. A lawyer in the USA has a better chance of practicing law than a Canadian lawyer. You gave a point to Canada for healthcare because of life expectancy. However I’d still give a point to the USA for healthcare. The life expectancy is a separate subject. The life expectancy is lower in the USA because of what we eat here. I would give a point to Canada for healthier food. In the USA fatty diet with sugary sweets is common here.\n\nThe video was really pros and cons for liberals. As an American, I could make a list that is biased towards the USA. It was a very informative video, I just think the irony of you talking about political bias while making a biased video was comical. I definitely don’t want to move to Canada after this?. If you are liberal in the USA and can handle the cold then Canada is sounds amazing. If you’re a liberal, but can’t handle the cold, the west coast of the U.S. might be a better option than Canada. \n\nI think all of those pros for Canada is because they are in Canada. It’s great that those things work for Canadians and so many immigrants into Canada!\n\nAlso, Canada can have 1000 points for personal hygiene. I can’t stand people not taking their shoes off in my house even though I have a sign on my door that says, “please take off your shoes”. I have OCD so I am biased on that subject ?.

I am not against inmigrantes because I am one as well, but really this is not the way to do it. As I can see here this people is fighting hard to cross the border to get a better life , then why not to do the same in your own countries to fight for your rights of have a better life. I came in different circumstances when I married an American citizen, and I am the only one in my family to live in USA, the rest of my family live in my country of origin ( in Latin America) . Fight hard but use that energy to fight in your own country and the world will be better if all of you get rid of bad politics in your own countries . I know you all can do it because I see in this video people fighting hard so then you can do the same in your countries. ?????

I pray these countries and political leaders would stop treating their people so badly that they have to flee to other countries that don't want them. God will deal with them?

This is all happening under Joe Biden you know sleepy Joe.? I am no fan of Donald Trump believe you met but Joe Biden is too old to run these politicians are like old willow trees you just won't let go of Life in politics. So Joe Biden to know much better against these people coming into our country after 178,000 came in under his watch alone then Trump did. But Biden is too old no countries afraid of them roshes out-of-control China ?️ property that's not theirs, and let's just face it and let's just say it the Democrats are not only pushing their own agenda which is dismissing everybody else's voice but don't agree with them this is the group that came from Facebook Google and Twitter where they spent 25 years being brainwashed and brainwashing others and they also suffer from the effects of covid. Political correctness is absolutely crazy and not everybody's going to get along just cuz you silence people's voices and refused to give white people rights or loans you cannot make right what happened 850 years ago let's stop trying let's move on and let's make everybody feel like their voice matters and just because their experience is different than yours doesn't mean that there were trumpster a liar a wacko.

The hipocresy of American politics is just too much, on one hand they will give you the idea of resolving the border issue, on the other some work to get money in their pockets by cartels and other criminal organizations worldwide like isis, and on the other killing the economy by not making the illegal immigrants work like Florida. I mean is a mess, not one sided like many people see on here, the root of the problem is so much deeper and it involves a lot of things sadly :/\nJust hoping everyone will be okay for the times to come and know who the real enemy is (hint: is not these people who are desperate like others in the country). It has always been the ones on top who make you believe a color or party is gonna change a thing when it’s not

This is some political stuff don’t get it twisted USA politics finance this type bs they’re planning something print new social security numbers to do more business or who that frog’s knows

Some people are playing politics with this issue s

We need more leaders like President Bukele of El Salvador and AMLO of Mexico. President Bukele incarcerated thousands of MS-13 gang members without trial. They are all in jail for life. If you have gang affiliated tattoos they come ant take you to jail for life. El Salvador is gang free and all citizens are happy. Ironically, the USA politicians are screaming human rights abuses. President AMLO stopped all catering to the high classes and wants to be more independent of the USA. This of course was met with USA indignation by politicians of the USA. We are not a very introspective country. Not that it ever makes the news but Mexico is home to 1.6 million Americans that are legally there and anther .5 to 1 million living in Mexico illegally. Remember that Banana Republics were forcefully ( With military action.) made to trade with the USA. Dole fruit being one of the main driving forces of USA interventionism. This act kept most of Central America’s governments weak and destabilized. We destabilized El Salvador all through the 70s and 80s. We destabilized Venezuela when our politics ran counter to theirs. We toppled and incarcerated President Manuel Noriega of Panama and went to war with Panama. Pablo Escobar of Panamawas killed with CIA operatives. Right or wrong our footprint is part of Latin America and the consequences of this still reverberate in todays’ immigration problems.

I hate how the democrat party uses my latin people as political pawns.

Most politically incorrect people on earth ... ?

A wall shouldn’t be an issue but politics make it one to keep ppl divided and funding money.

America seems to be on the verge of being dismantled economically, socially, and politically. I feel so sorry for them, I feel so sorry for America. Everything has become sorry. Everything is looking pretty bleak.

Create Black Supremacy movement, to proclaim, magnify and foster the good elements of black culture. African leaders also need to grow up, by establishing effective and reliable political and economic systems.

Doesnt Canada have a left wing president (obama vouched for him). \nPpl tend to think the right is rascist and the left not ! rather than accept what ppl say,study the political parties policy,which is why biden is getting away with a lot c/o you the voter.,you accepted that Trump was rubbish and biden better.

I understand their need, their frustration and their feeling of impotence that they can’t do anything in their country. But what I will never understand is how many will demand help from here, Demand rights here and they don’t do it in their country. Why can’t they demand help from where they come from? It’s their leaders, president, or whatever political figures they have to help them.

Someone wont just do that! Im sure she did something which angered him or else no one would act like that for no reason! She is just being nice and polite cos of the camera she is holding. There are lots of stupid people who thinks they can do anything they want just cos they have a camera! People are not stupid anymore sister incase you are reading this

Many do not like you here in the United States, they will happily use you for a political agenda when possible. And why they have opened the borders, because blacks are waking up to being used and getting off the Democrat plantation. \n\nSo now they need all the foreigners through the borders they can get to vote Democrat.

Stay a distance from what America wants. Losing character of its own country will lose the benefit of its foreign relationship with others. Make good decision for business, import and export with others. We have no additional saving to play world politics game. Make your own ways to exchange business developments and ideas. Instead of creating tention in between counties for the US.
