Send them back to their countries and let them work it out! Whatever is going on there is not americas problem! We have enough problems ourselves here in America!

send in the tanks ... enough

bruh build Mexico and fight for Mexico not the United States because yall literally can't. the opportunity for real leadership is where yall are already at. it's too late here in the U.S you'll just be joining the rat race. the cartel ain't big enough to win if you all fought back and sometimes you got to fight fire with fire. these people clearly need leadership and someone with a voice to give them courage otherwise this will get worse and lead to nothing but death, deprivation, illness, and just sheer disaster

Enough off this bs. They have no right to come. My family and I waited for 5 years just to get a appointment for an interview in another country just to try to come here.send them all back.

I really feel for these people AND all Americans who are doing it so ‘heroically’ tough. The cost of petrol, food, medical expenses, housing and the list goes on. The wages ‘if you can get a decent paying job’ have not gone up enough to cover the cost of living. It’s getting the same in Australia but not with these scenes of forced entry. God bless America ?? + ?????

Should fire tear gas bombs, ain't HUMANITARIAN issue but INVASION obviously really. Worse than 'ccp, Asian nations , what more if they are in ? Ain't 6 millions in not enough ?

Bro we have enough people we need to get more tough on this crime

Come to us or canada legally, or dont, it aint paradise, and we dont even have enough homes for ourselves as is.

We need to step it up. Unmanned drones, land mines. American border security should be synonymous to fot knox. To my knowledge not many people have died trying to get in there illegally, because no one is stupid enough to try

We can barely support ourselves and heartbreaking as it is we are so fucked we can’t help you. I pray for you. I try to give money as much as possible. It’s never enough I know but please just help whoever you can. Things are worse then they seem right now. It’s time to pray and protect your loved ones

And they wonder why people dont feel safe enough to give up bang bangs.

This is what happens when our government Sends false hope out To attract foreign voters. You tell the rest of them to come join the party as if our country has enough to offer . They are creating more of a disaster than it already is . This should have been done with honesty. We have no room. And we have to get our self together before we can have company

They think we owe them something to bad there not smart enough to realize there entering the land of the lost either your mega elite wealthy or like me ur fu/(Ed

This is absolutely stupid. There isn't enough resources for these people, housing is far n few between, health clinics r over run, the crime rate if going to go sky high. Biden you damn sure won't b re-elected. This is total bullshit. I am sorry their homeland sucks, but this country is stressed to the MAX. This will definitely make it worse. The food supply is going to considerably shrink. WARNING, DON'T MESS WITH ME OR MY PROPERTY N I WON'T SHOOT YOU.

We just had some illegal immigrant from MS13 murder and completely dismember a door dash delivery driver where i live. And now were letting more of the people from the worst places into our county. Americans have become so accepting and open minded that their brains have literally fallen out of their heads... We are self destructing at this point. We've had enough acceptance we've taken in more immigrants than any other country on Earth. Let them go somewhere else anywhere but here.?‍? America is maxed out on poor uneducated people we don't need any more.

I mean when it comes to it. I dont mind the illegal migration. I don't really care anymore. The world is big enough for everyone, and the U.S. is a lot bigger than people seem to think. So by all means who cares if they are entering...

why is america pretending to be able to help this people? we have enough problems here with our own citizens , we do no need more useless people who want into this country so they can get hand outs

​@BriarPatchson Fun fact you should have researched. The largest share of the housing stock in the United States as of 2021 was built between 1975 and 1979. There were 18.5 million homes built during this period, whereas the homes built between 2016 and 2019 were less than six million. Rough estimates 158 million Homes. Are there empty homes, apartments, sky risers,. Yes. You are fixing to find yourself in misery soon enough if this is allowed to continue. The money is not there for most Americans to foot the bill. It's pure insanity to think otherwise. The more you know the better prepared you will be.

We dont want them, theres barely enough housing, good paying jobs, and aid for the peopoe who came or live here legally.

Canadian goverment is the most stupid government world has ever vistnesed and even the people who are born here are falling in their trap. They just legalize the drugs and weed use and youth is falling for that. They don’t have enough young population and they try to compensate them through immigration. This government thinks that immigration is the solution to fullfill the labour shortage but in reality they are just creating labour for US. They don’t have their own companies where these workers work. “Canada is nothing just a warehouse to store goods for USA”

The United states has enough problems as it is and now this. What about our homeless people, here in America right now.

No the just sneak them in, in the middle of the night. Just watched tonight with people streaming from Mexican side. Since are beloved leaders wouldn't let them get close enough to stream from US side. Keep believing in the MSM they are lying to you fools who drink upnther kool-aid.

Theres enough money food and jobs and housing in america go forth and go strong. May you all find the american dream. Good luck dreamers.

It bothers me that the Canadian government does not protect me from drug addicts , and also does not allow me to earn enough money in a manipulative way with the help of restrictions of the laws .

Another man's meat is another man's poison. While you leave Australia others are settling in & making a life. No country is perfect. Just be careful not to end up like a rolling stone which gathers no moss. Life is too short. Don't age before you have garnered enough for retirement.

These people are not coming here to work they want free. Uneducated unskilled and poor their is enough of those here already.

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.

At least they love American enough to pull up

This pissed me off I'm sorry but I was not a fan of trump but he had this uncomfortable yet our so called president DID SOMETHING SO FOOLISH SELFISH N JUST MESSED UP!! knowing many Americans are going through so much As it is he needs to put a Stop ? Now!!! There are enough ppl in the Us .God help us All

They need to take their countrys back. Theres enough of them. They need to be like grizzly bears. Have you ever seen how fucking crazy grizzly bears are?

We can’t find housing cause a estimated 50,000 people A WEEK MAKE IT OVER THE SOUTHERN BORDER ! That’s the ones that actually get threw … take some basic math folks - \n\n50,000 a week x 52 weeks = 2.6 MILLION people a year coming across … okay so what ? \n\nPhoenix Arizona couple years ago was the 6th largest city In the USA WITH 1.65 million population … DO THE MATH… JUST SAY FOR A EXAMPLE THEY ALL STAY IN PHOENIX. PHOENIX WOULF WOULD TRIPLE ALMOST IN SIZE EVEDY YEAR … \n\nWe can’t afford housing now ! Why? There isn’t enough houses or apartments available so supply and demand. Demand skyrockets and so does price - what do you think happens when we triple our population in a year ? Rent WILL BE MORE THEN NEW YORK… and that doesn’t even touch the traffic as our roads and freeways weren’t built to sustain 4 million people, AND THE WORST OF ALL… our water … we’re all ready having to do severe cut backs cause we’re draining the Colorado river and lake mead and lake Powell … we would kill our natural resources within years …\n\nAnd sorry to say but that many immigrants that fast - in one year . Mexicans would be the dominant population no question by double … they don’t have insurance, speak English , there culture is drastically different … just look at what small amounts can do to certain areas … I know I don’t want my houses in my neighborhoods painted yellow, pink, and merrachi music blasting till 3 am from every neighbor - I say that cause it literally just happened to me as I had to sell my house cause several houses were bought up around me and swathes of them moved in and the entire neighborhood did a 180 real fast… and who do you think pays for every single one of them and there food cards , health insurance , there WIC baby money , there school, there housing .. YOU YOU YOU

It’s amazing how people watch a 30 second clip posted by cnn and now that enough to make up their mind about immigration these happen all the time and these guys are well trained to handle it. The amount of people that play into the bullshit and narrative these “news” channels push is insane. No longer do we have skeptics and neutral party people instead we have retards from the left and right wing sides.

Fuck that don’t let them in I’m sorry but America has enough problems already we can’t always be a safe haven to refugees sooner or later people gotta learn to defend themselves against their own governments.

Part of the reason why US companies take more risks than Canada is that if theyre big enough theyre smart and integrate across the country, getting governments to bail them out in financial crises. The Canadian government just doesnt have the cash flow to match the mighty US economy.

I think this video is good overall, but downplays the potential severity of our housing crisis. It's not just a problem for renters. Rapid expansion in finance and real estate are only a good thing if they are backed up by real growth, otherwise it's just a bubble that puts the entire national economy at risk. In Canada, it's got many characteristics of a bubble that will crash during an interest rate rise or economic crisis.\n\nAlso income inequality is not the whole story. Wealth inequality has been rising rapidly in Canada and is made worse by rapidly rising rents and inflation. Owning a home outright or with a smaller mortgage means spending less of your income on housing in Canada's current system, so even at the same income level homeowners are dramatically better off than renters and renters have noticed. It's one thing to point at some graphs of the Gini index and say inequality isn't that bad, but that's not good enough when regular people see homeowners buying fancy cars and taking lavish vacations while renters scrape by.\n\nFurthermore, you pretty much ignored the demographic concerns in Canada. We have an aging population, which means we either need high immigration that worsens the housing crisis or higher taxes to pay for growing healthcare and pension costs. Neither option is good and both paths lead to increases political and economic instability. Demographics is one of the main reasons the OECD has a poor outlook on growth in the long term.

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

We fked their country up so much with all the billions of dollars we funded their cartels with that now they want to leave their own country, and we can't let them all in. That goes for most of the countries that these caravans are coming from. The US population literally hand-fed each and every single one of those cartels enough that they grew so rich that they are as powerful as the government over there. We destabilized an entire continent.

If we don’t fix the affordability of housing in this country soon, it’s going to get really ugly. The powerful financial incentives driving the purchases of multiple properties as investments is sucking up a larger and larger portion of housing supply - and driving up prices steadily. Rentals too don’t have enough supply thanks in part to rent controls, and high immigration. It’s fine if you are a ale to borrow huge sums to cash in, but it’s bleak fro people living paycheck to paycheck.

There has been little investment in infrastructure to match the demand of population requirements of the new immigrants. Health care is unable to keep up with the increasing demand. Furthermore the immigrants are needed to work at low paying jobs ($16/hour) when it has been conservatively estimated that workers need a minimum of $23/ hour to just survive. Housing starts cannot be met as there are not enough trained workers to fulfill demand. New residents are finding the country's living resources lacking. Taxes are very high in comparison to wages as well.

People dislike housing being an investment but it's a good one because no one builds enough houses so supply is always restricted. Build more and prices will go down it just seems so obvious

Just cut off the benefits. We got enough problems here

I'd much prefer you talk about solutions more than the causing problems. Not enough people do that

Least corrupt? clearly didn't do enough research

Man all I can say living here can be hard like there no affordable housing like I wanna move from the place I'm in but I can't afford the absorbit high rent prices like man it ant worth it I only make 15.50 that ant enough to live

This is very surface-level analysis. If you want to dive into why Canada's economy is so uncompetitive you have to look at its constitutional framework. Inter-provincial trade is more difficult in Canada compared to Trade in the states or the EU because NAFTA, and the EU trade agreement are more efficient compared to inter-provincial trade frameworks the senate estimates these barriers cost the economy $150b in GDP per year. By comparison, Australia with a similar constitutional structure to Canada managed to harmonize many of its inter-state/ territory regulations leading to increased GDP growth and has long outperformed the Canadian economy. Furthermore, Canada's indigenous rights framework is far to restrictive in terms of allowing the governments to actually govern. This has cost us billions in FDI in projects tossed out by the courts and projects that will simply never be considered due to political and regulatory risks. \n\nThat said, if Canada wanted to improve this situation without meddling in the constitution one thing they can do is to allow housing to catch up to the population. We have the fewest number of dwelling per capita in the G7 in the highest population growth in the G7. This is a recipe for a housing shortage which ensures that a lot of capital will flow into the housing sector simply because it offers promising returns relative to the risk of operating a business. I believe Canada grew by over 1,000,000 residents in 2022 however we had 240,000 housing starts (4 residents per dwelling) and average house size here is 2.51 residents per dwelling. \n\nThat disconnect between housing starts (see regulatory framework above as to why we can't build enough houses) will just cause more capital to flow to the sectors making the business investment environment worse.

GDP from real estate is never a safe way to earn in the long run when u have decreasing manufacturing and small businesses. If people aren't making enough money from their job, how are they going to spend on houses? One doesn't need to be an economist to realize such a simple truth. Canada's housing market is a timing bomb with surplus supply and limited demand. New condos built in the last 5 years would have 1/3 rented out if they are lucky and there's no stopping of new constructions in the near future. This is just another one of Evergreen crisis in China.

I’m a trucker and my work has plummeted in the last year. Take care of your own, we already have enough problems. Legalize drugs and compete directly with the cartels.

Fix bayonets, enough is enough!

Seriously we absolutely need to help all the homeless and families already in the US without enough food who got fd diring covid. Help our people for once please or we won’t have country to bust into . Oh yea and when you have no home and no food you don’t give a FK what pronoun people call you . ..just sayin …. Let’s get our priorities straight

My sister and brother in law told me when moving to N.S. that they came across numerous homeless families. Apparently COVID caused a migration to the east and those families living in rentals were quickly kicked out by the landlord to sell at a high price, sometimes the buyer is not even Canadian but some foreign property investor. There is not enough housing there and no infrastructure to start building said housing. A small part of a larger problem in Canada.
