I am a UK citizen. I find it strange that Indian nationals claim to be 'proud' of their country, yet they all want to move elsewhere (UK, US, Canada, Australia etc). If their country is so great, then why do they want to keep going to other countries? And then there's the bureaucracy for those who want to visit destinations such as India. If India wants to impose endless paperwork and procedures to other countries, then it should expect the same. India was the one that started the childish tit-for-tat behaviour when the UK and Canada were restricting visa applications during the pandemic, so therefore India banned e-visa applications from Canadians and UK citizens. If India wants to behave like this, then why can't other nations? The UK is full of Indians who come here and don't want to integrate to our way of life etc, hence it's better for everyone if they just stayed in India.

India is the 5th largest economies, yet why would people want to move to other countries to seek for a better life? Nothing like your home country my friends, stay there and enjoy the true life. Make your country a true great nation so that you never have to leave to another country.

Because of People like Palki. You said Indian passport is the great because it is from the country of Modi which is ranked 85 globally 2025 PERIOD. Facts, Indian F1 students are submit fake documents like security deposits in bank (scam), the reason of study (fake), job experience after education (fake), interview process (fake) during CPT, OPT even on H1. I took nearly 40 interviews in 2024 out of which 28 are with Indian background, 24-25 of them are trying to cheat the process in different ways. 2-3 are genuine but they lack skill. Now the people like Palki are trying to lecture about India in Oxford? ?????

Indians should stay and make the country great instead of running around like a headless chickens. Of course the corrupt governments of the day makes thing worse. Until they follow half of china's way of governance, India will lose out on everything China do. Actually India had more scientists and clever people but all going in the wrong directions and objectives.

When our great dear leader made india number one country in the world.. Most of the world think that why the world number one country citizens come to their nation.\n\nIndians stay In india and make india the great country in the whole universe.. Like we are the greatest country in the world now..\n\nRAISING ON THE GLOBAL STAGE.. NOTE THIS POINT YOUR HONOUR.. ?

For the 50 lacs Indians who work in USA directly for American clients, it feels so great not to work in India and give commission to greedy capitalists like Narayana Murthy. Client dollars come directly to their pockets and with 1 dollar = 87 rupees they reach their retirement nest egg faster and achieve FIRE (financial independence retire early) in their 40s. And yes work for 40 hours and every extra hour is extra pay. No 70 hour work per week exploitation allowed in USA.

enough going abroad to make other countries great..its time to get things right here in our home.. just what we need is some political wisdom to reduce red tapes and part of the capital investment for start ups from the govt (like what china has done)..

How many of them are going to visit and return home. Let's be clear. And other countries need their citizens to have job. Indians are smart people to solve this problem they should make india great again like china.

Like the great Frank Costello said in the Departed: “No one gives it to you. You have to take it”! \n\nThe jungle order is the new world order where might is right. So build your economic and technological heft and then get what you want.

Sounds like a lot of laziness you don’t have to stay in a big city. Lots of great affordable towns to live in If you’re not great full to be here you should leave I was born here I can’t afford a big city that’s life move on stop complaining

Canada is the best country in the world don’t like it. GET Out all kinds of great small cheap towns to live in Bye bye

I am a senior and live in Vancouver, BC and my son who has dual citizenship lives in Seattle, WA. His wife and him will move back to Canada when he retires. I visit Seattle and enjoy going there. The shopping is great fun especially with all the big store headquarters being there and we can't forget Trader Joe's. I don't drink alcohol anymore, but the cost, volume and availability is crazy. He also lived in New York and lived a train ride away to the suburbs (great system) and was a lovely area to raise a family. Visited NYC and loved it. I've lived in Montreal and just love big cities. In saying all that, I think were all basically the same, however I could never permamentally live in the US. I can no longer afford the outrageous travel health insurance to travel to the USA because of my age and health issues. I have a primary doctor and four specialists that I see on a regular basis, waiting for a hip replacement and none has cost me a cent. Oh yes, I get free dental care. I wouldn't move to the states, but would sure like to visit again. Politics is a whole other subject.

Toooooooo many Indians !!! And not the good ones ! Bring back the strict point system. All the old school ones are great people, these new ones have no respect for Canada and treat our country like its lawless India.

Tyler there are 600 mass shootings in the U.S each year which is almost 2 a day per average and while they do not all take place in schools, how many mass shootings are tolerable? As long as Americans like yourself dismiss all the data to the contrary the U.S will continue to have the tragedies it does, When you look up mass shootings which is where there are more than 2 victims per incident you'll find Canada doesn't even register in those statistics because where the U.S has 600 mass shootings a year Canada hasn't had 600 in its last 100 years. So that is why Canadians mention school shootings as a reason, because the potential is real for it to happen. It is preventable tragedy but Americans as a whole need to want that change, until it does the rest of the world will always bring up gun violence and school shootings when the U.S is in the discussion. The U.S is great but it could be better. Stay blessed ??

The Canadian Constituent is tremendously Empathetic to individuals among impoverished nations & they wanted to help but all the Canadian Government saw was Dollar signs but those individuals were not raised in a culture like yours & they only seek to have subsidized lifestyles on the backs of Canadian Taxpaying Citizens. Don't let your Empathy financially ruin Canada, One's expenditure should not exceed their income. Make Canadian babies to help Canada prosper. Be proud of Canada & research your Candidates. Apathy is a shield. No one deserves your Empathy or Charity, especially those who wish ill will upon the people of your Great Nation.

I like this guy. Much love from the USA lets makes the UK great again

There are enough world class universities in India. Better than most of the countries. It is just the glamour of white, more money and status symbol of living in great named countries. Government of departure countries should charge heavy fines for leaving or ask person to pay off all expenses country of departure has faced.\nYes, there are exceptions. People have long lived and established due to children borne in country or sickness which is handled for long time by doctors in country of present residence. Living in USA and or country like Canada has become a status symbol. It is real tragedy. Dishonesty has gone one step further to crime, Criminals are defying laws and robbing innocents with the assurance of promise land.

Make Canada smell great again because it stinks like the east

I remember a few years ago, Canadians were celebrating their 150th anniversary of the founding of the country... my work colleagues were very happy, proud... and me... well, I just told them that my capital ( Québec) had just celebrated its 400th anniversary of founding... It was a moment of total cognitive dissonance, the absolute incomprehension in their faces... ''how, why, well let's see it's impossible''... I kindly told them reminded that my state existed long before Canada, that he had never signed their constitution and that one day we would be gone. Obviously everything in English, because if I speak English, they well... they know how to say ''hello''. Canadians are good people, polite, kind, values ​​similar to the values ​​of Québécois, but they have a vision of their history and their role in this history that is so partial, romanticized that it becomes sad, especially since they draw from it an unbearable feeling of superiority. And by digging a little, we hit the limits of politeness, kindness and companionship because if Canadians like the telling of their history, they clearly do not like being reminded that Quebec was founded 250 years before the Canada and that Québécois have not joined in joy and good humor in the great Canadian adventure and that even if we are Westerners like them, we do not share their guilt in terms of the treatment of natives and other Asian immigrants nor again their strange attachment to the British crown. As Mr. Tremblay points out so well, Québécois and Canadians are much more like neighbors in a hotel than a family and even if on the surface there are several similarities, in reality, we are total strangers.

Like Donald Trump MAGA group of people we should have MCGA Groups of Canadians, Makes Canada Great Again! K

Great step. I would like to know, how would Governor of great state of Khalistani Republic of Canada reacts to it!

Granting visas is a sovereign right. As common as it seems in Canada to grant visas to wanted criminals, it is the effort of most other nations to grant visas only to genuine tourists or businessmen and not to troublemakers - especially those with a history. Absolutely nothing wrong in the goverment of India seeking guarantees from those seeking visas that they will not misuse the largesse and undertake secessionist activities or those that incite violence. Shame on you for distorting what is natural to look like a great crime. Well, what it finally does, is simple - your news loses credibility among the people of the global south

Segregation never ending the criminals were here before the immigration even started Trump did didn’t seem to have a problem with the immigrants when they built his empower They’re the ones who worked without contracts without green cards and some never received any paid yep, let’s make America great again Go right back where we started hope you don’t like french fries to go with those burgers because who gonna work the fields to bring in the potatoes to make the french fries

They don't assimilate.... they infest and destroy. They have nothing to do with the creation of thos country. They are great at hiding in the shadows while everyone else fights & dies to build a democratic system. Once all the sacrifice from the people that fight to build the country is over.. and there is a thriving system.... East indians move in by the trillions. They're very good at benefitting from other people's sacrifice. \n\nThen... like locusts, once they've completely destroyed everythin,and delpeated it of its resources... they find the next established system to exploit, depleted and destroy. \n\nThey are literally the human equivalent of locusts.\n\nJust look at India's population!!! They are about one fifth the size of our country, but have a population of almost one and a half BILLION people!!!!! That's atrocious!

My parents, grandparents and great grandparents were all born in the USA. Having pregnant women coming as illegal immigrants should not become a citizen even though the baby is born here. Actually she knew she was pregnant before she came, but that doesn’t mean she can’t become a legal citizen, but it needs documentation like I have had to prove many times to get work.

To build the wall is realistic but to deport these people is not, one can take out 100 persons as a great resounding demo but it won’t do any good. The resources are not going to be well spent. Trump is smart but this is like his brother Fred. He wanted to fly planes, just let him. It’s ok not to be a tycoon in real estate. I take community college classes with these children, they are decent, hardworking and respectful people, they are a plus and a bonus to America, they were raised seeing the struggle of their parents.

My name is enow from Cameroon., thank you for the great work that you have been doing to synthesize migrants who wants to travel to all over the world. I really appreciate your good counseling. I would like you to talk more about Asylum seeking in the UK 2025 for people coming with the tourist visa

I moved to Canada upon retirement at age 60. Best decision! I’ve had good experiences with the Ontario and Nova Scotia healthcare. As I didn’t have emergencies, I didn’t wait more than a month for specialists. Canadians don’t like travelling to get appointments sooner which is common in the US. \nMany here think emergency room wait times in the States is much shorter, but I’ve accompanied friends in New York State for treatment only to wait over eight hours. \nHere in Niagara Falls, Canada my ex had a kidney stone causing great pain. The wait time to get morphine and treatment was about 45 min. \nI got a colonoscopy in four days here. In the US I waited three months. \nNo cost or copayments, and there are no in-network requirements that I know of. \nI would not live in the US again. Visiting is just fine!

Xi jinping is better than our tea seller he did so many great things in his country. He is not courpt. Or he is not loyal dogs of Ambani or adanni like our leader

The Great Gazoo, hanging over her shoulder right now somewhere like, Hello Dumb, Dumb!!???

I appreciate the effort these two women are making to educate Canadians about their own country, but! I can see that their focus is strictly the Gen Z crowd, who really need educating, but not by a couple of foreigners who are just trying to make a living. Good for them. I admire your tenacity. But, ladies there are 10 provinces and 3 territories in Canada. Here's something you may not know...Canada is the second largest nation in land mass only after Russia...FYI!\nNow if you had lived in Canada for over 70 years; as some of us have; you would come to have realized that there is NO central Canadian culture. There are 13 different cultures and societies associated through a federation with a central government in Ottawa. Every province is unique in its politics, social programs, even cultural events. Not every province and territory celebrates the same holidays, memorials or statutory holidays.\nPeople in Newfoundland are as different from the rest of Canada as the Scots and Irish are in their homelands. Alberta has cowboys, BC has sailors, Saskatchewan has wheat and Manitoba has the Guess Who and mosquitos. Ontario is just arrogant, Quebec is just Quebec. There is NOTHING Canadian about Quebec. If they had it their way they would have been independent since the 1750s. They don't even like to speak English. They do it out of obligation to the federation. \nThe Maritimes are again, unique unto themselves. They could easily be an independent nation and then their true culture would shine. Why they practically speak a different language. They have been here longer than any of us and are in fact the most unique culture in all of Canada with the exception of one very important factor:\nThe First Nations of Canada. Their culture is as different from 'European' as Indian is from Chinese or Russian and Korean. \nAnd they have been here for thousands of years. Are. you addressing them as well in your broad stroke analysis of my great country?\nYou need to get to know this country from those who have been here long enough to educate YOU.\nWith all due respect I think you over reached your grasp of the situation. You can't learn about a nation just by travelling around and talking to people. You have to live here...for a long time. Good luck and effort though.

So, who in Canada is going to step up and start the road to housing recovery? Will it be the lumber companies, who charge us more for our own wood than they do the Americans, Europeans and Chinese? Or how about the real estate speculator who HAS to double his profit with every deal so he can appease his greedy wife and spoiled brat kids? Oh, and NO LAND in BC or Ontario will ever be given over to affordable housing. That would be an oxymoron. Land is TOOOO valuable to give it over to NON-PROFIT housing. Fuck that. My kids ain't gonna grow up next to a housing slum. Or, how about the government??? They have the answers don't they? Isn't that why we elect them, put our trust in them, pay our fucking taxes to them?? What say, Government of Canada??? Are you going to step up and solve the problem or just keep giving the rich more incentive to crush the rest of us?? WTF!! Who is in charge and who really cares??? ANYONE??? What about the average able bodied Canadian young man and woman? Would you like a job doing something meaningful and constructive?? How about a career in the building sciences and trades? \nWhat's that? You don't get out of bed for less than 50.00 per hour? And you don't want to work for it, you just want to show up, punch the clock and let your union rep do your bidding for you??? \nFirst: GET A FUCKING EDUCATION, as in learn a trade or profession. Oh, but that would require you to put in the time and earn your skills. What's that? Too much bullshit for you? You just want to show up, do nothing and be handed a pay check of 2 grand a week...JUST FOR BREATHING THE FUCKING AIR??? \nIf you are looking to blame anybody for the state of this nation, just look in the mirror Millennials and Gen Z'ers. The future is right there in front of you, but you are too stupid, too weak and too much of a snow flake to do anything to secure it for yourself? \nSo, when it comes time to retire????....Dont cry when you find out the pension account is empty because you couldn't see past your self indulgence to realize that...\nYOUR FUTURE IS YOURS AND YOURS ALONE TO SECURE. NO BODY ELSE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR WELL BEING. It's all up to you Canada. \nOh, and about that trillion dollar windfall some of you are about to inherit. If anyone thinks that is a good thing, think again. THE WEALTH GAP IS GOING TO GET SO BIG there will never be parody and this will become a 4th world nation where 2 classes are all there is...RICH!!!!! and poor. 99 1/2 % to 1/2 %. That will be the ratio after the great wealth transfer. \nYour world Millennials and Gen Z'ers. Most or all of us will be gone by the time the shit hits the fan. Good luck with the party!

If INDIA ?? was SO GREAT, WHY is everyone trying to ESCAPE THE COUNTRY????\n\nCanada ?? is the worst country to wanna escape to, it’s like going from the frying pan into the fire ?

I don’t know who needs to know this but as of 2022 if I’m not mistaken backed by the federal banks and the global banks, Mexico is not or no longer considered a third world country for the record it’s considered an upper business class country and it’s on the rise. It’s number five in the world for importing the exporting Number one is the USA ?? . I just wanna let that sink in. I really do hope that President Trump and the president of Mexico I hope they both come to an agreement because it will not be beneficial for both parties. At least the one who’s gonna fill it. The most will be US. It’s just gonna force Mexico to look elsewhere not to mention Mexico was back by the US dollar to an extent, and it also has the back of the euro force along with the Chinese currency Mexico forced to be reckoned with not to mention all the car companies that are being Located in Mexico cars that enter in and exit Mexico in the car market not to mention Mexico now has the biggest cobalt mining probably in the world if I’m not mistaken Mexico is now in demand. Mexico knows this now but it’s not stronger than the US but if the US no longer cooperates with Mexico in Mexico, no longer cooperates with the US well it’s gonna be pretty sad not to mention the amazing history they have Like when Mexico along with Brazil defended the US when they were crippled by Japan and when Mexico went to help liberate during the Nazi invasion in Austria, Mexico has a great history of warfare and defending this country as well. I’m proud to be American and I love my Mexican heritage. I just hope it doesn’t go too far

Just like the old saying goes, “a rotten apple spoils the barrel.” Bad policies brought undesirable immigrants here who literally destroyed the path to permanent residency to many great immigrants who would make a difference to this country.

Why Colombian farmers choosed to grow coca plants? They grow like a weed. Why they choose to process the plant and sell the paste? Is easy to do it, and easy to stored. The best thing for them is that the cartels just go to pick up a little bag that weighs 3 ponds and pay a nought money to the farmers to support their families, right there in the spot!!. If the farmer's cultivate vegetables, plantains, or any other produce, is no way for them to move their produce out of their farms. Is not an infrastructure of roads or any other system that is helping them to get their products out from their farms and the worse is that they do not get paid a fare price for their products. You know who is going to pay for their product right there in the spot with out to go through so much misery? For pennies? The cartels!!!! Two pounds of paste feed their family for a couple of weeks. Those two pounds translate in to a couple of millions after delivery. Where are this cartels delivering it?\nYou guess right! USA!!! \nDid Trump actually have a plan to CLEAN AMERICA TO MAKE IT GREAT AGAIN, WITH OUT ADDICTION ?\nNo Trump and Harris actually had a plan and how they are going to deal with addiction to drugs in this country!! \nWHY??

Also she came out today and had a great talk with trump. Trump just got support for this Mexico president saying she will support everything he wants. So you guys don’t like that. You don’t like how he does it. Tough shit

The problem with here is also with Khalistan issue (of course not all Punjabis there want Khalistan and are absolutely chill people and people here in India, Punjabis, also don't want Khalistan, I have some close friends who are Sikh and are most Dildaar, Big-hearted, people I know). A lot of extremist groups which want, Khalistan ARE supported and protected by the Canadian government especially by Justin Trudeau and these people are committing nothing but violence and terrorism in the name of free speech. Indian government has issued many extradition requests, but the Trudeau government has done nothing about it and has protected these extremists. Over the years Indian government has warned Canadian government about this issue constantly and after years of housing these Canadian terrorists (because Canada calls them their citizens and protects them, what else can be the correct term for them and nothing like Khalistan exists) they've started to cause problems for the people already living there (like the terrorists Pakistan was housing are causing problems to them). They know they are not gonna get a Khalistan in India so where else are they gonna build it? Voila! Canada! This is the reason behind them not assimilating with the existing culture.Trudeau has even gone to lengths of calling Amit Shah (Home minister of India) and PM Modi (if you don't know what the heck are you doing here go study geopolitics a bit) unalivers of Hardeepsingh Nijjar WITHOUT any evidence (they just keep saying they have it but have shown nothing till now) and because of which Canada has worsened its relations with the Indian Government. They are even comparing India with the likes of North Korea in terms of threat. Indian Government in reply is giving Canada the same treatment it gives to Pakistan (a bit better of course, but the diplomacy has gone to sh it. And the reason why Trudeau is doing all this, yeah VOTES for sh itty domestic politics he's sacrificing long term GOOD relations with the Indian Government. Now, you may think that worsening relations with India is a good thing for Canada, yeah no, its not good because India has trade relations with Canada which may worsen due to this (yeah, great going for an economy which is already in shambles) and UK or US are not gonna do anything to India over Canada because India geopolitically has more significance than Canada (I'm not bragging, please don't misunderstand). This rant has gone to a very different tangent but yeah a lot of problems Canada is having is mainly due to their government. Any of Canadian friends (I have not reason to hate you) and Punjabi brothers/sisters (Yeah, unless you are some sh itty extremist you are a brother/sister to me) please don't take this offensively. Peace.

IMAGINE HAVING A PRESIDENT LIKE CLAUDIA SHEINBAUM HERE...!!!!!!\nAMERICA WOULD ACTUALLY BE GREAT AGAIN........!!!!!!!!!!!!\nPUTTING DEMOCRATS AND REPUBLICANS AT SHAME.....\n❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

The tariff wars are coming. This should be interesting. It's like the beginning of the 19th century when tariff wars accelerated us into the Great Depression. The Great Depression was in 1929. We are 5 years away from 2029. It's like history repeats itself.

That can’t be good. Putting a 25% tariff on Canada and Mexico could cause a lot of problems. First, they might fight back by adding their own tariffs on U.S. goods, which would hurt American farmers and businesses that sell products to those countries. It would also make things we buy, like cars and food, more expensive, which isn’t great for anyone.

And the slowing and progress of Bidens economy is undermined just like that. MAGA time. I didnt know the depression and ww2 were the great times Americans voted to come back. He's bringing back the depression and ww3 like he said he wouldn't but he always wanted. Trumps goal is to bring America to her knees so Putin can have her way with her.

Ohh. Scared CNN. A narco state threatening us. Because they are way richer than the US right? ?. That’s why their people scurry across the boarder on mass. Because it’s a great country! You woke idiots are great. Just like “Kamala was going to win because of the of joy. CNN never lies! It’s a truth show ?

Trump is making enemies with our allies! And if he removes the United States from nato, be will just isolate the United States ?? making us weak! Thats exactly what putin wants! Trump is not trying to benefit the United States! Trump is just trying to benefit himself financially! I dont trust trump! I dont like trump! And i know he doesn't have the United States in his best interest! Trump will destroy the United States from the inside out just like he does to all his corporations! People say he's a great business man? Well all of his businesses have mostly gone bankrupt!!

The media loves Trump cuz he gives them news. Stop it with this tariff crap, Trump must be loco but he isn't stupid. He's not going to do shit just like his great and beautiful wall and how Mexico was going to pay for. Trump know knows the U.S isn't in no position to be messing with our great economy right now. Trump knows that he needs to ride Biden great economy for as long that he can in order to look good. Trump knows he doesn't have no pandemic to blame now and he's expecting to govern with normality. Mexico isn't scare of the U.S threats cuz Mexico has plenty of leverage and the new Mexico president isn't going to take shit from Trump.??‍♂️

You guys will listen to anyone , but while complaining about the border; you all know to well what cause the migrations. Stop sugarcoating go straight to the point. \nNo one wants to leave their homes land taking a long distance for another country. \nYou all know what force them outdoor. \nLet me give you an example. When California's while fires start. Animals like humans beings do they stay put or run for their lives?\nThe United states is a great country. No doubt about that. Even the so called enemy of the states knows that. But the foreign policy is not that is what force people to flee their home countries. Look what happened in Haiti for example just one small island. What do you expect those people to do ? If and when you only make a real meaningful change ; people will stop. As Americans we know better and we can and should do better ❤ I all

Take our country back? This coming from a Mexican-American? What country are you talking about? Get out of America if you don't love our country. America is already great, it doesn't need ignorant people like you in it.

Great video. I grew up in Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA in the 50s and 60s. Life was absolutely idyllic. I loved being young in America. Now, I cannot recognize my home town. I cannot recognize my country. I cannot recognize our political system. It's like the worst of humanity has taken over the country. But, it's everywhere - Germany, Sweden, the UK, the USA, Canada - they're gone. WTF happened?

Wouldn't it be a magnitude cheaper to just give them all expedited background checks, work visas and give them legitimate jobs that the American public just won't fill? We have massive gaps in agriculture, manufacturing, meat packing and warehouse work. The gap is so great that there are states that have rolled back *child labor laws* just to fill them.\n\nMass deportation sounds like a great way to drive the country further into debt while slashing our labor force.
