It's illegal to to cross the broder here in Canada . What a joke, You'll be given a Tim Horton coffee double double and a 2 bedrooms appartment for free, oh let me help you with your luggages..... and then we wonder why the crime rate goes up . Welcome to our 3rd world country !!!! take my tax payer money no problem !!

They come to Canada because they know it will take years to process them, they get to live for free on the tax payers dime. Full medical and dental and housing as soon as they cross the border illegally. \nSadly, 10's of 1000's of immigrants that are trying to do it the legal way, have all been put to the back of the line due to the govt using all resources to process all the illegals.

don't worry, once they pay tax, they'll move back..

Meanwhile legal immigrants, who earn higher salary, pay more taxes, and by law can't claim any entitlement programs, are toiling in the immigration system for decades and living in the fears of losing their job and being sent back to their country of origin in a blink of eye. Yet liberal media and mother teresas of lefties never talk about that because it doesn't fit their narrative

If these immigrants are asking for a better life then that’s not a problem but they should not get it for free. The main problem that US/ nyc is facing with these immigrants is that they get everything for free (food stamps, Medicaid, shelter etc from taxpayers). Go ahead & give them work permits & make it mandatory to show 5yrs tax papers to get citizenship.

We have to pay upwards of 30000-40000 dollars to study in Canada and make a life here and this peeps come here for free and become burden on tax payers. Wow.

Then you have fkd up Canadian Gov't who wants to deport students who paid their tuition and taxes while working back to their countries. \n\nIllegal immigrants and refugees have better chances that people who try to get to Canada through proper channel!!!

This country is all fucked up anyway the politicians have completely knackered it ve've got just about every nationality in the world here it's like a bomb primed and ready to go off if you we're a stranger getting of a plane you wouldn't know what country you were in but I will guarantee you that you'll be on the next plane out thank god my family has got out of this shit hole before things really get bad to pay back the money the government is borrowing is going to cripple the private sector we'll need to be taxed to death to fix this government mess

As a Canadian citizen (born and raised) those migrants from New York should move overseas (AKA our nextdoor overseas neighbour UK/EU). Canada is dealing with crisis right now (not only caused by not only both our Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau and our Canadian Premier Doug Ford but also the Russian President that started the war that screwed up Canadian gas prices). \n\nWhat Americans hear about Canada is a split 50/50. Yeah Canada has free health care. But when you reach 25+ you have to pay your own.. unless you have insurance. Also in the province where I live tax percentage here is DANG 13%. It's DANG expensive because Canadian dollar is not as strong as the big 4 (USD/UK Pounds/Europe Euros/Japan Yen). The only province that pays little-to-none taxes is the province of Alberta Canada.\n\nAll-in-all I advise migrants that live in US: DO NOT live in Canada because Canada is a sh*t country. And you'll be screwed by both the Trudeau and Doug Ford Government.

Lmao CNN is covering actual news and current events. I mean, they dont care they illegally enter the US travel all the way up thru the US on tax payers dime to Canada... u r just giving Fox news the raings... we are in the end of days?

ffs this is where my tax is going f u. I cant even afford to live and here it is they live on my expense for months nice. shit health care + corruption at every level + homeless everywhere.

Here too most people are filing STD LTD and those who work hard pay more taxes to support those people who are not in the workforce anymore . Hope govt will give tax break to people who chose to work

Entering illegal, it's a crime but the corrupt government allows them, gives them taxes payer money, etc . I am a immigrant, 30 years in Canada but I enter Canada legal, followed all the entering laws, papers... Never did any crimes

Our Taxes are so high.About time Trudeau gets off his world diplomacy throne and work for the Canadian Citizens.

We won’t let Americans cross but we will give 54k of our tax payers money for international immigrants? Our country has become a joke fuck Trudeau

A lot of Canadians can’t afford food or basics in life but yet these people stream across the border and we as tax payers are forced to pay for them? This is wrong. They come here because they know the tax payers will pay for them.

American’s are the biggest Hippocrates, they cry about people crossing the southern border yet send them in taxes to cross into Canada.

Let as many in this country as possible as a tax paying American citizen I’m GLAD this is happening america is dead while Biden is the president give my African American people reparation for the inhumane treatment we received how the fuck white Jews get reparation after ww2 when there not the real hebrews Israelites

Not everyone can just be considered an asylum seeekr bec of too much crimes in their countries. Grow up! Crimes happen evrywhere ieven in the USa. So if our attitude is just to let everyone come in for free to our country because their own governments are unable to fix their law and order problems, we are fkd as a nation. True asylum seekers were vicitms of war like vietnam war, Ukraine, Iraq, afghanistan (bec our own US govt caused all the strifes). African countries with civil wars. gang or drug crimes dont count because those are also our problems here in the US. If you work in a hospital like me, you will realize that the illegals crossing the borders (i think they have more sophisticated means now) bring their whole families including very sick ageing parents, disabled family members. And guess what, we are taking care of everyone of them more than our own citizens. I have no problem helping people but if our government shows more biases and leninency to the illegals more than the US citizens/legal residents, then I find that problematic. My heart breaks when the social worker would pressure me to discharge frail, sickly aging pts within nte 48 hour time frame bec medicare wont cover them and they are not eligible forrehab facilities as their status are observationinstead if inpatients while the non-citizens can just drop their chronically ill family members bec they cant take care if them as they are all working. They wont even claim them bec they are “busy”.\nThey can just do whatever they want as they dont have to worry about paying for hospital bills or have credit companies go after them. We are also taking care of their US born children but they are not paying taxes. Our co’untry is in the brink if bankruptcy bec of misplaced sympathy. If we really want to help these people, give them work visa so they can be legal and taxable, or better help their countries to help with drug wars, etc. We cannot sustain these kind of unconditional financial bleed for so long. Before we know it, the whole population outside the Us, have transplanted themselves here for free and without fiscal responsibilities.

It is high time Canada should put up electric fences on its borders, easy entry for criminals, terrorists, ...the government can not even feed, house, educate and provide employment to their own Homeless people, why accept Non Canadians. Well educated and skilled immigration applicants find it too diificult to legally migrate to Canada but ???? Assylum seekers too easy to enter Canada!!! Government increase taxes to support all these refugees and assylum seekers free of charge while Canadians can not cope with inflation..what an irony...

We need to stop this. Too many illegals are stealing jobs from Canadians. They come here and get hired for cash under the table by their friends friends and avoid paying taxes which hurts our economy. Those jobs can be given to Canadians that need jobs and are willing to pay taxes. If we locked this country down for a couple weeks while the army did a full sweep of all the residents, it would benefit the lower class Canadians

And no pr for students who spent money thousands of dollars and give taxes.

And the taxes keeps going up

I’m sorry but they need to leave! I can’t afford to pay anymore taxes!

Oh this is where all my tax dollars are going, so ircc is a joke

Where is the resources to handle this mass illegal immigration?! They barely wanna take care of it’s citizens and we pay taxes to this god forsaken country yet we’re supposed to have a soft spot and understanding for these migrants?‍?This is crazyyy!!!

Some negative things about Canada which forces immigrants to leave Canada \n1) lack of corporate jobs \n2) harsh weather \n3) poor and complicated health care system \n4) high cost of living \n5) exorbitantly high housing prices .\n6) high taxes

Again close it! I'm paying more than 30 thousands in taxes annually and I only want it to be spent on Canadians!

I’m an immigrant who entered legally but overstayed my time. I got a job and pay taxes. I’m not about leeching off a country. I just came from a 3rd country in search of a better life and opportunities that my country doesn’t have.

I don't blame them because United State is a user crap tax sucker country without any wealth fare and very violence country who want to stay in a country that is falling apart and cannot even handle their own homeless problems or their economy beside funding unnecessary wars.

Taxes are the Control of political threatre. It is how all class driven societies work. Taxing the commoners, while the corporations slide over the masses.

Why the hell would you want to come to canada to starve to death or pay aload in taxes, die in waiting rooms and have no rights better for them to stay where their at. They don't know how go they got it in America most people I know want to get out of canada.

Gonna be very difficult for them to survive in Canada. Super expensive to live there due to relatively low salaries, extremely high housing costs, high daily expenses, high taxes etc. With these dynamics it's even more expensive than living in SF or NYC. I worked in Toronto and am from NYC so I know.

How about United States bus them from Mexico boarder to Canada! because all of Americans taxes are being raised because of these illegal immigrants

Once you get into Canada, free Welfare for life. Even if you get a job you still get access to all the services provided within for subsidization, etc. Government transit passes, subsidized housing, carbon tax funding, food bank access where if you have a family you get way better food than single folks (cakes etc.), lots of child support, credit to attend community centers (swimming pool, etc.), paid tuition and the list goes on.

Why don’t USA take care of their own citizens first. Free medical to start with for the citizens paying taxes . A lot of Americans suffer from high cost of medical insurance to no insurance.

I'm all for people coming here to Canada, as long as they get a job, pay their taxes and keep their noses clean. Priority should be given to anyone with specialized training like doctors and trades. Honestly just about every doctor I've ever seen was originally from India or was Asian. I just don't want to have a translator to understand them, we need more people like that with some kind of education and training.

Better life ? idiot welcome to taxes and work like machine life. Stay where you are trust me

Wow.. Nice discussion, but but but... Do you have any other opportunities? I dont think so. I dont think that USA is waiting for you with a big brothers hug, at least if to count the legal staying in there.\n Girls if you dont like TAXES you can go easily living to Russia. There they dont pay taxes at all, but get ready to be sutisfied by 500-700$ sellary, when you spend 500 for flat only...

For the people saying that the country doesn't take care of it's own people. That is because we vote people in power who don't want social services, who want to get rid of social security, who defend pharma lobbies and insurance lobbies, who keep education expensive, and actively endorse political and economical segregation. Stop voting these hardcore republicans and you will see positive change locally, start taxing people properly encourage unions for workers, demand fair pay, demand cheap education, demand better health insurance and cheaper. Etc. Immigrants that are coming over the border are not sucking the country dry. It's the stupidity of our own population for voting hardliners that is.

Good! We need more workers, we're all tired of being shortstaffed. The income taxes they will pay will more than cover it

We are seeing because our current government is inept!!!….We can not sustain this! These people have no jobs . How will they procure what they need housing , food, money, transportation etc. The Tax payer ! Is how the government fixes things!..,

Canada actually need more slaves for tax . They will go back to America soon .

Blackface N@zi dictator Justine?Trudeau loves keeping Roxham Road wide open! Since the Liberals took over in 2015, immigrants have cost Canadian tax payers $67 BILLION dollars on hotel rooms, food and ⚓️ babies alone!! #FJT.

?worked in CDN 47 years. Retired now no family Dr. Gov't here sucks up to all groups but me. Taxed high all my life, except in military(very low pay). 400,000 foreigners per year into country. Why??? To keep working peoples wages low. So called professional groups keep outsiders out. So they have to compete with people like me to keep wages low again. Trudeau wants our living standard on par with Africa. I'd leave if possible.?

Unemployment rates now sky rocket. My taxes support migrants instead of increasing benefits to Canadians. While my children can't live in their own room. I can never own a house. So much more . . . Maybe I should migrate out of Canada. I'm being pushed out of my own country.

If Canada or the US were to charge a fee for permission to remain the revenue would be astounding! I can't think of one immigrant that would refuse to pay a $500 monthly fee to remain and work freely in either country. It has been suggested many, many times. The amount of revenue generated would exceed that of the tax revenue we currently have in place for common Americans by 2030. Why Republicans don't allow this? Because the conditions and rules that most be followed like, no felonies would optimally change the face of who they portrayed them to be.

I'm not going to use Canada's 'Personal Income Luxury Taxes' code. It would just be a repeat of what they did in the US, hell the whole world. I got a better plan that involves me getting off this planet with the help of my technology. (PEO ll, Esq) ♟️✌️I'm going South.

Lovely, Now issue them all temporary SIN numbers and put them to work. We need help paying taxes in this country, why should we be the only ones who pay tax upon tax?
