Go back and come back as refugees, canada loves refugees they’ll let anyone in sadly

The workforce looks Indians but they are Pakistanis, Nepalese, Bangladeshi, Srilankans \nDon’t generalize by the facial features \nLook at their passports \n3/4 of Nepal moved to Canada post covid\n3/4 of Pakistanis, Bangaladeshi and Srilankans claimed refugees status in Canada in past years \nDon’t generalize \nGet the facts checked \nThey look Indian but they are from the Indian subcontinent- Pakistan, Bangladesh and Srilanka . Students from the Indian subcontinent (excluding India) don’t have to carry a security balance of $10K in their GIC bank account \n\nSome deeper investigation is called for this by some watchdog media house and just not propagating false claims \n\nDig deeper the refugee system \nDig deeper Nepalese students without $10K GIC money \n\nIndian students still carry some bank balance and are not hand to mouth beggars like Nepalese , Pakistani and Srilankan students \nrotting the system

Canada is giving the tourist visas for third-world countries, and they are seeking refugees after arriving in Canada, at the same time limiting the student visa. Good luck with that.

also too many refugee, stop all welfare and benefit to refugee, then they will not come to Canada

Hahaha, that is good becoz canada migrate thousand of muslim refugees and provide them house, money, they have 5 to 8 child, those increase canadian population, but canada don't need skilled workforce ???

Good, increase the numbers for refugees as they will vote for you... adding to Canada's economy through skilled workers is such a lame idea for a lefty poster boy????

Shut the flood gate from India! Also refugees from Syria, Ukrain, Africa etc. One million students and another million in regular immigration is too much to handle for a country like Canada. The system is not designed to handle this much..

Canada is doomed..... they will sell resources like coal, timber, uranium....not much else. China, India will catch up on terms of universities and colleges.....the immigrants they will get will be economic refugees

The refugee support groups will tell the refugees to claim they are gay or bi-sexual and would face harsh treatment if they were deported back to their country. The Liberals will allow them to stay in Canada.

I have read most of the posts, and as a 78 year old female senior, who was accepted with my mother and father, as refugees 68 years ago into Canada, I can't believe the garbage reasons why these people are unhappy here.\nI am also a well travelled person, 36 countries on 5 continents. Saw incredible sights, YET, whenever, I arrived in Canada either in Vancouver or Toronto, I was always grateful that\n I LIVE IN CANADA.

In the public eye….oh great now Canada is an Alphabet Mafia safe haven!?!? Because we don’t have enough “refugees”.

Canada doesn't need anymore refugees ... when is this craziness going to end.

Canadians lose again... No more refugees or new PR at least 20 years \nWe don't have any responsibility for them \nBut Canada government need responsibility to their own citizens because we are paid tax their salary

Has it ever occurred to all the right wingers in the comments that the laws governing Canada's treatment of refugees are pretty standard and comparable to the rest of the civilized world? That they exist EXACTLY for people like this man? Or do you just have a complete hate-on for anyone who isn't white? ?

He is acting to get refugee approval. I have a Ghanian ex-friend who after coming to Canada on a tourist visa spent over 1 month to think of a reason to apply for refugee and someone from Toronto advised him to pretend to be a bisexual and now he is a PR and has a Ukrainian girlfriend.

NATO makes refugees around the world. No one wants to leave their homes. NATO and their formula of overthrowing governments have created chaos in Asia, Middle East and Europe. Stop funding wars. Period. America, Canada and Europe are not as appealing to raise a family.

Please Don’t blame Indian people, blame Canada’s government. Indian people come with Education and money. Yes we have our own culture and own language but we also like Canadian people and their culture. Canadian government wants more money and that’s why they are inviting more n more students from world and mostly come from India and there is nothing wrong with that. All Indians come here in Canada as a true immigrant. Why you are not talking about so many refugees, who come to Canada with no education no money and they are burden on government. Compare to refugees, Indians work hard, get education here, pay fees in colleges, earn work permit and then pass English exam and then get PR and then citizenship. Indians work hard and earn PR and citizenship here in Canada but what about refugees and asylum seekers. They fucking don’t do anything and they fucking easily get PR citizenship. Why you’re not talking about this ???? Immigrants come to Canada from all over world not just India. Lots immigrants from African countries,Bangladesh, Pakistan, Philippines and so on. So don’t talk about only Indians. In last 5 years, Canada invited so many refugees from all over world. So talk about this also.

The people as refugees are fine as Canada safe their lives , why from India , it doesn’t make sense, here is no housing no job but they come as economic workers , it is a bad plan

refugees, asylum seekers, migrants in canada are on a free ride..free medical, dental, free pre-paid credit card, baby bonus for all their children, free housing and it continues..

This is NOT true!! The Canada–United States Safe Third Country Agreement (STCA) Under the agreement, persons seeking refugee status must make their claim in the first country in which they arrive, between either the United States or Canada, unless they qualify for an exception.\nNo 13,000 can just hop on buses, walk, fly, boat or swim to go to the US or Canada. It does NOT work that way. We protect our borders vehemently on both sides.

In Canada, there used to be a difference between ‘immigrant’ & ‘refugee’. Trudeau and his government have made these two groups into one. My family immigrated from England in the 1950s. My father had to have a job waiting for him when we arrived. We had to go through health checks. My parents had to prove that we had a specific amount of money so that we would not be a drain on Canada. Trudeau has opened the border to anyone wanting to come no matter if they have anything to offer Canada.

Wealthy societies, like Canada, began with charity supporting refugees in the whole world. This is based on the Ideologie of human rights. This big scale charity will be financed of tax of these Wealthy countries. Now the case is the the economics is declining and a refugees getting more, which leads allover to higher taxes, which again makes business suffer. Si the negative trend is stronger. Maybe there are still some countries, where you can get more from the cake, but the differences are less and less. But I keep my finger crossed for you. Greetings from Germany.

The joke is that this airline is the most inflated and corrupt one on earth. These aren’t refugees, these are people who get these jobs because of connections to the government. So corrupt Pakistani government helps their cronies to get visas in Canada. Stop this bull with stewardesses try to flee the country

Okay. To begin with, being white does not automatically make one Canadian. Immigration is the foundation of Canada; it is all about which generation of immigrant you are. The one mistake Canada made was to accept an excessive number of immigrants and students during a short period of time. This allowed students to work full-time employment, defeating the purpose of student visas. Why is no one discussing asylum seekers or refugees, which has made matters worse? All amenities, housing, etc., are provided to refugees using taxpayer funds. The money paid by taxpayers is meant to be used by those who made the tax payments. \n\nAll legal immigrants pay substantial fees and continue to pay taxes while they are employed, none of which has an impact on the economy. \n\nEmployers always give preference to Canadians with the necessary abilities over immigrants, even if the latter have higher skill levels. Despite having excellent credentials and expertise, I was not selected for any interview because I am not Canadian. Thus, give up lying and acting like the victim. Concentrate on the real issue. You are the preferred candidate for any employer if you are Canadian and meet the requirements.

Too much tax. Too many people when there is no support. Wages down. Refugees with mental health issues and no respect for women. Canada is a dumpster fire now.

India is not dangerous. Pakistan is not dangerous. Let real refugees settle in Canada

You sure those crew are Pakistani? If they are Indian you are misleading people to thinking that the PIA employees are having fun. I am no Canadian but I assure you taking in more refugees than trained workers that should boost economy you guys are choosing the wrong card. Y’all need to make a law to restrict some things. Why is PIA still serving in Canada even though them or their government is not trust worthy? Well it’s your choice.

Agree with the mass immigration has screwed things up...I am PR turned Canadian citizen now....the things are gone worse in last 2 years....I am not against immigration as I am PR immigrant too...certainly Canada needs skilled workers but the things getting worse by mass immigration masking skilled work immigration...Woking hard contributing to the society and country all it matters...but I can't see all my tax money going to refugees and asylums....this should stop.. immigration needs to be halted and country should go to repair mode else it would a let down for future generations and there is no stop for Canadians migrating to other countries for better life...india thought culture to the world...whats going wrong...respecting culture and people is what we indians are...

Khalistanis are ruining Canada, but its on the Canadian gov't who ignored India's warning about these radicals and now they have a problem, which ofc they blame on the entirety of Indians. Furthermore Canadians are historically known to be racist af, there were Neo-Nazi/KKK movements here too, they still pop up here and there to this date. Research Canadian history, this rise of anti-immigrant sentiment against Indians is not a surprise coming from Canadians, that's just who they are. Sure there are certain elements that need to be curbed (like Khalistanis) but they are entirely on their govt who invite them in for vote bank politics. The rest is just hate/fear mongering by white Canadians who think themselves superior to other races. The economy is down in every part of the world, not to mention Canada is hosting refugees from Ukraine/Palestine and other parts of the world who also contributed to the drain on economy, if you can't support them then don't bring them? The Canadian economy has been going down for a decade+, many businesses have left in the past and are still leaving, Trudeau hasn't made it easy for them either, the remaining NEED cheap labor to survive. They also NEED immigrants to bring in their money, its a big part of their economy, without immigrant money their Universities/Colleges/businesses are going to be many times more expensive even for the local Canadians. Canadians have big ego but not much to back it up, from my time here, they try to compare themselves to USA but they're nowhere close, nor is the weather desirable to live here, the guise of friendliness/politeness & some high paying jobs is all they had going for them, and now they don't even have that. /endrant

It is hard to pinpoint a specific reason why, but since the COVID 19 pandemic the economy in the whole world got weaker and the natural instinct of the people is to find something to blame. \n\nSome countries blame immigrants, others blame refugees, others blame poor government, others blame weak currency policy, like in Japan. If there were no indians in Canada they would just find something else to put the blame on. Indians immigrants are just easier to spot.

The first Canadian family I met, were refugees from Canada to California in the 60s.

You probably voted fro mass immigrants and said refugees welcomed, and when it was getting you uplikes, no problem, now that its gone too far, you wanna leave? most white women in Canada are to blame for these problems.

Mexicans rnt going thru war\nIndia ain’t either\n\nThe illegals frm these countries shudnt be allowed here \n\nWe bust our ass, study, get job etc… but them illegals get in canada, usa nd get refugee status or directly PR or PR eventually after a long long time yet during that waiting period they get 750$ frm gov (in case of canada) nd a room nd lawyer!\n\nUr not racist if u say deport the illegals

I came to Canada in 1984 as a refugee from former Czechoslovakia. What a fabulous place Canada was then! \nNow, if things don't change (!), it looks like I will be soon living in 1984 again. In Orwell's 1984 that is. My kids are not panicking yet, but they understand what I am warning them about. If they decide to leave one day, having no debt will be the key. People with debt will be locked down.

I was born in Vancouver Canada now live in San Diego, California. From what I have heard Canada is turning into an over price third world country. Government let too many refugee's and tax the hell out of working people and hand it to the millions that are turning into a toilet.

Im a surgeon. I came to canada as a refugee child I wouldnt be a surgeon today had it not been for welfare, social supports, affordable apartments for our family, free and excellent public schools, loans/scholarship/ bursaries and access to the best universities for education, and then loans again for medical school/residency. I pay about between 300-500K in taxes a year. I am paying back a lot more than my family received in direct social services, but its worth it for the life that this beautiful country provided my family and I. I hope the taxes I pay will benefit current and future Canadians. Our system is not perfect. if it was good enough to help raise my ESL refugee rear up to where I am today, the social support blanket is better than most places. GL on your move. I wont be moving anywhere any time soon.

They’re illegal migrants or refugee claimants entering Canada. JT and Freeland have officially made Canada a third world country.

No need to demonize Canada like this,it might not be the perfect place to be and yes this crisis exists,But there are people who work their way through the system, Canada presents a great opportunity for a far richer lifestyle than in India,Of course there are a few downsides but not everything.I have been living in this country for the past 5 years and there is a huge potential in this country.Just need to be careful,And not everyone in Canada is injecting or investing drugs,Buying a house is expensive,That doesn't mean people live on the streets,They rent out.Due to sudden influx of immigrants and refugees there is a housing and job issue,But eventually due to measures in place this will be revolved Im sure Canada will bounce back and create more opportunities and affordable housing in the coming years

This is all our families home Canada our families lived here for a long time my great parents live her all our families lived here we never had refugees in our country's CANADA until you so called governments bought this Refugees in our country's CANADA you governments and immigration failed Canadians and our country's. We what you coppuption governments let us Canadians have our own governments NO refugees or immigration in our government.

This is a moment in time, it's been caused by a combination of inflation and a lack of housing, which was exacerbated by a flood of immigrants and refugees. It's already starting to ease, but it's going to take a change of government to cut the immigration numbers and encourage housebuilding. Literally no one recommended raising the immigration quota to 500,000 per year and on top of that there is the Ukrainian refugee programme and student visas. Anyway, speaking as someone who used to work as an immigration consultant, the best place for a YouTuber to live is Mexico. It's easy to immigrate, you're in the same timezone as most of the English-speaking audience (that makes the most money per view) and Mexico (and Canada) have extremely comprehensive tax treaties with the US and endless MOUs and so on, which make dealing with Google and the IRS super easy. I think you can even use a US bank account with AdSense. Удачи вам.

Trudeau explaining this idiot. From a fired snowboard instructor, drama teacher to somehow a communist leader of a canada who is running the country into the ground \ni'm Canadian and canada is a awful place to live high tax crime is up. refugees all over the place you need a gun now in Toronto or Vancouver

What's interesting: I am a German thinking about moving to Canada, because I believe Germany is a mess. We gave home to more than 1,000,000 refugees since 2015 and still more to come. I am kind of distracted of this video and all the comments. Where would a Canadian go, if he or she wants to leave? Switzerland? Australia? NZ?

my neighbors, a Syrian refugee family residing in Glenforest, Mississauga, Ontario. \nThe family arrived here three years ago and is receiving various social security benefits. However, I have observed that the father is working illegally in a butcher shop while the family continues to benefit from social security and other grants. They appear to have multiple sources of income, live in a free house, and are purchasing substantial amounts of gold, a new car, and their children are receiving educational benefits. This situation seems to be inconsistent with the financial situation of many hard-working individuals in our community. \nMy father has reported this issue to the Canada Revenue Agency, but we have not seen any follow-up or resolution. I am concerned about the fairness of this situation and how it affects the integrity of the benefit system.

Stop blaming Trudeau. All you right wingers love blaming Trudeau. These refugee laws were enacted decades before Trudeau was prime minister. Stop going directly to the Trudeau well when you hear something you don’t like about Canada.

Ezreel now forcing over two million Palestinians to reallocate to Europe, Australia, Canada and the US .... And Western societies supporting ezreel ....ahhhh but Western societies will moan about more refugees coming in to the West ....... Make up your mind people and stop being hypocrite and double faced people ....

Maybe Canada should stop being America's lap dog, sending Canadian soldiers to die in places such as Afghanistan and Iraq to create refugees in those countries and make American Billionaires even richer, just saying.

Canada’s legal entry system allows asylum seekers to make their claims at airports. Upon arrival, they are processed by the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA), which conducts security screenings, verifies identities, and interviews the claimants to determine if their cases can be referred to the Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB)12. This system ensures that asylum seekers are given a fair opportunity to present their cases while maintaining the integrity of Canada’s immigration process.

Change the refugee laws and plug the loophole. Canada has been taken advantage off for too long.
