They dont understand that if mexico wants we can let me do anything they want to cross the border but if you keep trying to invade us we might ass well send everyone to the borders and let me them do it

So grateful to see all the comments. I'm moving to Canada soon and the comments from locals helped me understand the ground reality.\nI have questions about small business/ start ups, can any of you fine people help me with these? \n1. What are the major challenges of starting a small business/startups? \n2. Is expensive mobile data a major hindrance to the growth of apps which provide services? \n3. Red flags/negatives of starting a small business. Taxes, govt procedures, ease of doing business, etc.\n4. Is funding for a good app based business idea available easily? \n5. If I have an app based idea and the backend/IT operations run out of India what could be the issues I could face legally or taxwise? \n\nWill really appreciate guidance as I'm new to Canada and really looking for real business advice. Thanks much.

What gives them the right to force their way i to the country????\nThey storm the border, then they protest in the US. They get free housing, free education including COLLEGE, free food, first to get jobs because they are minorities over those Americans who were born here and then they protest that they aren’t treated fairly??? They want a dam red carpet on their terms. \nEnough is enough! What part of ILLEGAL do they not understand????\nIm not racist but I’m tired of not getting jobs or help with college because I was born white in America. Any other race is considered & a minority and I’m tired of the reverse discrimination!

Having recently completed my income tax forms, I find it difficult to understand why anyone would want to acquire wealth in this country only to have so much of it taken away by all levels of government. Best to keep a low profile..low income..and let those hardworking suckers pay for the bloated government.

Wow these comments are funny theses are people who clearly don’t understand what’s it like to live in a third world country, I thought the “American Dream” was still a thing ig not, and don’t go say “well they should just get in the right way” bc if u says that u clearly don’t understand how it work you need upwards of 8,000 dollars to even try to get in and a good ass lawyer, who tf has that much money and a good lawyer when ur in a this world country. Sad to see so many “Americans” saying stop letting them in, the “American Dream” has really died sad. Keep living ur comfortable lives tho and saying thing you know little ab ??

Nations competing for power and status has been what the history of the world has been mostly about. There are those that are obsessed with competition and are willing to die for power and status. This is the strongest motivation for the innovation, production and exchange of goods and services and is also why the best competitors cannot trust each other and feel the need to deceive, fool, cheat, spy and lie to each other and causes them to build weapons that can basically kill most of the life on this planet and damage most of the environment that can sustain life. \n \nMany nations are comfortable with their lower levels of power and status performance and do not think allocating more resources to move up the ladder will be of much benefit. \n \nPresently, if the economy is not growing, it is considered a failure. This type of thinking cannot go on uninterrupted on a finite planet with finite resources. There needs to be flexibility in the system for the economy to expand and contract and for a contraction to be considered normal and not a problem or a failure. The contraction needs to be just as prosperous and productive as the expansion. For this type of thinking to work, there needs to be some new economic theories and models developed along with some new types of money and financial systems based on economic sustainability not on economic growth and money inflation. \n \nI am sure there will be some Nobel prizes awarded to the academics, economists, corporate CEO's and business leaders and of course politicians and government officials that can figure out how to make a sustainable economy work and how not to devalue the nation’s money in the process.\n \nThe way this can begin and improve peace and fairness at the same time is when our business and government leaders along with our brightest and smartest among us including the most wealthy among us can learn to be much more truthful, honest and trustworthy and can start to understand that the wellbeing of others benefits everyone and is the bases for morality.

Canada’s biggest problem is it’s socialistic policies of the Liberal governments. Don’t confuse things: social programs like education and healthcare are not an exclusive marker of socialism. The balance of government interference in the economy IS. Nobody in their right mind would start a business in Canada today. \n\nSecondly, running a business means buy and resell, manufacture and sell leaving a profit. But the business of running Canada is losing money. The formula of running the country doesn’t work. We go deeper into debt every year, now to the point where it’s impossible to grow out of debt. As we allow massive immigration to counteract an aging, non-productive population, because of that negative formula, we just keep going deeper and deeper into debt. But it seems that most Canadians want that because we keep voting in the ‘robbers’. It’s time for Canadians to understand that soon a death tax will come in where all your asset value in taxes will go to the government. But that’s coming and is the only way for the government to pay down its debt.

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 !!

What I don't understand is how bad foreigners talk about the United States but they are doing things like this to get here.

it's funny I moved to Canada a little over a year ago and I want to move back to Australia for some of the reasons you want to leave Australia and more. Housing affordability here is a pipe dream unless you like living near mountains and want a laid back life like the life in Perth, in Calgary. But Calgary's job market is not great and that pretty much extends to every province except Ontario and BC. Living cost in Canada is very high... compared to what I experienced in AU, this is more expensive than living in Sydney. (I live in Toronto but this extends to Vancouver as well.) The healthcare system is weak, inefficient and inconvenient. Bureaucracy is again very slow, inconvenient and in some cases so backwards. Banking is not great, super inconvenient, not people-centric, inefficient and very much backward imo.. work-life balance or quality of life is way better in AU. Infrastructure development is slow and not great at all for a world-class country and personally, I expected better from Toronto.. (I do understand why it is the way it is right now, some justified reasons but some not so much) Things I do give props to CA... Diversity and inclusiveness is not just marketing slogan like in AU.. I don't feel like an outsider here... Its incredible. Job market is here much better than in AU. If you're moving from a country like AU, you will feel how capitalism here is made to make more money out of you every step of the way. But also, you will see how you can use that system to make alot of money. I think Canada is a great place to live if you're an entrepreneur or business person and making money is a primary requirement. But if you're someone who loves quality of life and work-life balance and want to probably own a good house, right now CA is not there. Also this doesn't mean CA isn't great, its fantastic... but compared to AU, canada comes short in many fronts. Also I love the weather here even if we have a pretty long winter.

It's all Biden fault. He want to get people into the USA so that he gets votes. He doesn't understand this makes things more dificult for everybody in the USA.

I mean, let me get this straight, because there is no 'non-white' in an institution or a company, that means there is 'racism'.\nAre you serious?\nWhat incredible damage that vomitous political correctness does.\nThe fact that there are certain annoyances towards certain populations, has always existed and will always exist because that is how human beings are.\nBeing different, in certain cases, annoys.\nIt is absolutely normal and understandable.\nIncredible.

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

What the bleeding hearts fail to see or understand is these people do not speak English, they do not have a grade 3 education - they can not compete in the job market in the USA because they do not have the skills needed to qualify...\nBy allowing in illegals and encouraging this behavior, we are making criminals out of every one of them...\nJust what do you think will happen when they can not find a job? They still have to survive!! \nBy allowing them entry to an open market they have not the skills to be a part of, we are making criminals out of everyone of them.\nIt's a known fact people revert to the skills they have to make ends meet...\nIt's not a kindness, it's a death trap or jail sentence which costs tax payers money...when will the bleeding hearts ever learn?

I get where you're coming from, no one is more patriotic than myself but bro this is the land of hope. My grandfather who raised me is an immigrant who left a life of no hope and growth to come here. He was deported 12 times but each time fought to come back. Now he is a father of 4 grandfather of 7 American citizens. He is the pride of our family for how much of an outstanding person he is. But all this would not have come to fruition if it wasn't for the opportunities that this country provided. I understand our country is struggling but it's not struggling to a point where we have to turn our backs on these people and pretend like we can't help them when help isn't even what they want. They just want somewhere safe to raise their children.

The VENEZUELAN PEOPLE voted for that piece of shit called socialism… once they were the most educated country in South America until they started learning socialist propaganda. Sadly it’s slowly happening to the USA too! People need to understand that free comes at a prize.

Wait till they find out all Americans are struggling too. They need to come here but follow the rules in doing so. Otherwise they look like they are simply trouble. I understand there is terrible political unrest in nearby other countries but act accordingly.

Now u understand the importance of india baby. How free u r here.?

I don't even understand why they want to come to this 3rd world place

I don’t understand why they do this to Mexicans Mexico is part of the United States

These ppl don't understand that they are putting a strain on another country when the enter like this. This is ridiculous, they have to fight their corrupted nasty leaders. They are behaving as if they are entitled to enter another country, and sadly they contribute nothing towards that country...they only take take take and cause destruction.

They are like animals, they do not understand that there are laws, forms and rules to respect, these people want to do their will, they should return them to their country, these people are the most common in Venezuela.

This will increase the vote share of Biden. Now I understand who had elected him.

Damn, I don't understand if they knew what I know they seriously would be trying stay where they are at cause it's not that great over here they are seriously going from a bad place to a worst place I am not B.S

I hope everyone is safe, this is really stupid but I understand the desperation these people must be in to be willing to risk their lives and some with small children with them. It’s heartbreaking and I’m sorry this happening. I’m American but I’m a human being first before anything and this sad to see

You understand the border will never be closed. Never. NEVER!\n\nIt is a trillion dollar industry. Deportation. War on drugs. War on terror. Prison systems. Adoptions. It will never. Ever. Be closed. Ever. Never ever.

I understand coming to America is the thing nowadays but if you was born here you wouldn't like it you would rather be born somewhere else and just let it be with it be just born there and die there. Sad but true?

I’m confused! Somebody please help me to understand why these people are trying to cross into the USA ! You mean to tell me that they can afford to pay $2 - 3K, A month for a two bedroom apartment, when the average AMERICAN cannot afford to pay that kind of rent!

Wait, are you commies starting to realize that we need a wall? Do you understand that the materials for Trumps wall were left on the ground it heaps because your President shut it down on day one? You are responsible for inviting these people to risk their lives and their children’s lives…..Shame on your heads.

Mexicans are your cheap workers that do anything for some bucks, everything you don't want to do, am I wrong? Can't understand why you don't want them. Refugees here in Germany cost 2000 dollar minimum per month, many of them don't want to work and are violent.

Just remember u did nothing special to be born American. So you wouldn’t understand these people struggle! The American government caused the crisis in their country, so they want to come to get the opportunity that was taken from them by American government. Stop acting like u don’t understand this! U claim to know the temperature of a planet 100 trillion miles away from Earth but can’t seem to figure out the temperature of the Venezuela people? ?????. You stop that.

why are we not lining up machine guns and f****** modem f****** down with the animals that they are it's not very hard to understand

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.

why let them in, I don't understand...

I feel so sad for all these people, they just want freedom and the ability to feed they're families like every one else does. I do understand about the borders though, it has to be done safely for all involved.

You silly liberal voting Maritimes don't understand....but here's some more equalization payments

I was in a dollar general store the other day and someone who didn't speak my language was working there. She did not understand what I was saying to her, I ended up leaving because I couldn't get her to understand me.?? I can't believe this is happening in our country we couldn't go there and do that to them.

No,,,,, president obien said our borders are fine and safe.\nAnd besides democrats have no accountability ask obiden he's honest and he will tell you.\nOnly Republicans have accountability ,,, come on people don't you understand ??

Trump started the caravans when he told everyone he was closing the boarders. There's only so much anyone can do alone which this is another reason to work together. We are a compassionate country so watching people want what we have because their country is dangerous and controling, is understandable but sad. Sad it has come to this. There's only so much we can do and a wall won't stop anyone from getting here. This will only cause a bigger divide.

The migrants don't understand the damage they will cause economically to this country.... Their inward thinking of their own survival could wreck havoc on the rest of us.\n........ \n\nThat alone isn't fair ..... I love all humans but not at the selfish cost to my own life.

These prejudices come from how the media portrays these groups of people…then the media turns around and reports on racism like they’re blameless in the whole ordeal. CBC is literally creating the problem that they’re reporting on. It’s not CBC alone but you understand what I’m saying.

There are millions of undocumented Immigrants in the US that have been living here for decades… they file taxes, no crimes, and yes I understand they are not here “legally” but now these people are just entering the US and getting everything?? Work permit, social security…. Something needs to be done.

All these damn scientists and mathematicians trying to rush in to save the country. I don't understand why we not letting them just freely enter.

Out of control.... the U.S. is out of control as well.....you cannot trust man. Even ourselves we need to trust Jesus the Lord God Almighty with all our hearts.......But we keep leaning on our own understanding....and that is what gets us in trouble!!!!!!!

I realize a lot of people do not understand the world. As first generation American, i can say, 90% of Americans do not cherish their freedom. As i see everything unfold, i realize we might be next to be taken over. I don’t know if y’all would flee or what. China and Russia aren’t using us currency so we can’t monitor their spending. It’s not rocket science to realize what they want.

I’m sorry but America can’t be the savior to the world. Our patriotism and laws mean that we are one of the most free nations and a large percentage of us would fight and do fight to keep our nation secure. Sad reality is that not all countries have the laws we do… and that sucks. But the world needs to understand that our laws and our freedoms end at our borders. Life unfortunately is not fair and some have to endure the realities of where they were born. If we let everyone in who wants to come then our country would be in much worse shape than it already is.

Lol. That's so funny. So they come to america illegally Decide they don't like it here because canada's better And then they enter canada with the same tears. The same stories. You need to understand that soon your country is going to be invaded by a very large number Of people trying to enter. And what is going to be strange about it? Most of them are going to be americans

I hope most people understand these are people from other countries not just Mexicans but to be fair Mexico should take care of their borders as well

I understand the struggle of trying to come here and live the American dream. They want a safe place to take care of their children, to work without being killed for couple of cents, to have a roof under their heads and food every night at the table. Have clothes and shoes and school supplies for their kids. It saddens me especially for the kids and mothers that want the best for their kids ?
