I notice how the young lady says that she’ll earn well live a life and fun on the weekends just like we saw in the movies. Except movies don’t always mirror reality. Hope she understands that she is lucky to have a lovely father and a beautiful land. One faces lots of depravities as an immigrant.

Canadians wake up, you don't have population, in order to save your land from foreign attack you are preparing population by stealing of Indias population, do you think Canada brings students , give pr, in order for taxes , are you kidding. After 300 or 400 years this population will be purely Canadian there decendants will work in military doctor or any any thing . And will save your country from foreign attacks and grabbing your lands.. so in order to save your land in future Canada is preparing population.. which you don't have.. hope you understand long term logics

I spent 6 years in university and 7 years in college after that. \nI had absolutely no idea this was going on. I also didn’t really understand why international students had to pay such a high tuition fee. As a domestic student, I already struggled to pay my tuition fees.

An eye opening video ...plz dub dis in punjabi n hindi as wel so dat many ppl cld understand myths abt canadian eduaction

Yeah it's hard to find a job and keep the job in Canada. Even with a job that doesn't require education and anybody can do, I come across someone who is not happy with me being there and they try to find reasons why I shouldn't work there ?it happened 16 years ago when I first got into workforce and it happened not too long ago again. I was inventory clerk counting products at different stores. I believe I was an accurate counter and someone who recounted them told my manager I wasn't good. She said many of them I counted were either off or she couldn't understand my writing. And the manager had to have a talk with me. I can honestly say I was better counter than she was. And I feel very confident I was very careful with counting that day too. But she thought otherwise. I couldn't bear working with someone or some people who didn't appreciate my work or my presence there so I had to quit. It will happen again and I thought it wouldn't matter how accurate I am at counting. One of my Canadian colleagues once told me that it's okay for immigrants to live in Canada but it's not okay to work with them. I don't know if that's a fact but in my experience I have encountered some people like that along the way.

This is truly heartbreaking, I feel so sorry for International Students who came here with dreams but were given something far below that. I am a Canadian born student, brought up and raised in Brampton but I made friends with many international students. I don't understand how International students have to pay 3-4x our tuition, cover their living expenses, and have work restrictions on their study permit. The truth is competion is everywhere and companies are competing for top students who go to credible universites. I don't see how international students are suppose to compete with these students when there is a shortage of high-paying jobs. I truly feel bad. I advise students to tell their stories to their younger siblings and cousins back home and prevent them from living a hard-working life with little reward. Advise them to complete their studies back home and find a job in big cities back home. As a domestic student I struggle to pay for my own expenses and I could not imagine if I did not have my parents support. This is fraud on another level!!!

Andrew Tate said education is a scam. Now I understand what he meant.

I would like to add that same happened to me in my father's case who passed away. The officer was hostile for no good reason, not once but twice. I am still trying to get any information from them. He openly threatened me that he will not provide me with any information and that he is the only point of contact to get information. Why? I still struggle to understand. If they can abuse their power to hold death over someone, why not right? Like the lady, I had provided extensive documentation still threats. He accused me of random things, spoke in a very condescending tone from hello. He was extremely upset about me calling from USA for whatever reason. I fail to understand where is humanity.

I don’t really understand why you join this kind of colleges as you can’t research before coming to country

I don’t understand why parents send their kids abroad to do a stupid course like tourism. Apprenticeship is the way to go nowadays.

You should translate this documentary in Hindi and Punjabi so every one sitting in India can watch and understand easily. Specially the parents of these children.

23.45 i am shocked. How a student was not able to understand and answer a simple question.

This sikh dude must understand that he is in a school campus of another nation

Why do we want to bring a quarter of the Indian population to our small-towns and cities? I don't understand I'm not trying to be rude I just feel that it will forever change our country.

As always, the Fifth Estate is at the forefront of Canadian investigative journalism, shedding light on pressing issues and giving a voice to the little guy. Bravo, and thank you for your continued service to the well being and understanding of Canada and the world. We need you more than ever in this day and age of lies, half-truths and sensationalism.

If you don't understand language then words have no affect lol. Pretend you don't understand lol

They r not bound to understand our religious values i feel

I am not being racist. I just think that when you are in another country you need to respect their laws. I understand its part of religion but those are the rules of the country

I don't understand why do people want to practice their religion in a foreign country and expect the foreign country to be accomodate them.. ofcourse they will follow their laws..

This our religious mark please understand.

On one hand I understand the officer cuffing him due to him having a knife but on the other hand there are religious reasons he has a knife and it’s not like he would ever use it or need to use it

I am from India too. There is no need of knife in a college. Totally understand this is religious but you dont have expose that in a public place like this.

I know that the actions seen out here in the video is kind of an extrem, but I believe whatever measures were taken it was for the welfare of keeping everybody safe in which my Sikh brother had no bad intentions but it was all an honest mistake.  According to my understanding he could've worn the Kripan under his T-shirt.. no disrespect to nobody but I'm here with all my Love and Respect to all.. \nAnd He being out of India.. people might have heard or know about Sikhism but respectively being in a totally different country it'll be a cultural shock to some of its fellow country's residents and that too he is in an educational environment or zone where a lot of unfortunate events had occur in the past few years due to violence.. so taking these reasons and unfortunate incidents under consideration.. our dear Sikh brother did not do anything wrong in openly carrying a Kripan (knife) for it is his cultural right and had gone some kind of a rituals in order to carry a Kripan for self-defense. But people will still feel some kind of uneasiness when it comes to weapons seen in and around educational area or zones. \nSo whatever measures had been taken for the safty of all.. especially by the security as he was doing his job by understanding the situation. No heard feeling to nobody but I just wanted to get my point across regarding this incident. N I know my Sikh brothers n sisters will definitely come to an agreement of understanding in what I'm trying to say..

i don’t see anything wrong with this. i understand religious stuff but if it’s basically a literal knife, you can’t be branding that in the open in a time like this.

For those that don't understand in the US citizens how certain human rights endowed to us by our creator.. that supercedes any laws made by a government..the human right to religious freedom and the human right to carry a weapon for self defense as specified in our constitution. Any action to infringe on those right are criminal in the US according to the constitution, it does not say allow yourself to be victimized and fight it in court..No it actually says to be armed so you can always put up a defense for yourself, your family, your property and your human rights to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness..

If they want follow religion then go temple\nI can understand pagadi , kadaa \nBut why knife in college \nIts college not war ground , they r just takeing advantage to be Sikh \nThey r khalistani terrists

Oh my God as a Muslim I understand him. This is totally wrong how can they do that. The kirpan is allowed to sikh in all over world.

I understand everyone has their own religion and what not but how in the hell would you think it's okay to bring a knife to school

They are both at fault cop for not understanding his religion and student for not helping him get to know why he was wearing that. Student should of taken off the knife let the office inspect it and if the officer went any further from there should be sued and either demoted and or discharged from campus. There's the real answer

I can understand the world is not understanding Sikh perspective till date, but all those so called Hindu(they do know the importance of kirpan for a Sikh)but still finds a way to criticise Sikhs, even though their ancestors and themself are alive today because of Sikhs and the sacrifices made my Sikh gurus. Unthankful people of india(hindus) not all thought.

In india we worship our weapons, dont preach non- violence stuff, adarma understand only violence !

A knife is a knife. It’s a weapon. I understand why students might be worried. Especially looking at current trends.

Is kripan some fashion accessory! Lol. \nAlso, people in India understand the symbolism of kripan. However, when you leave your country and stay somewhere else you got to follow their rules instead of calling victim. It’s plain stupid tbh.

I think some people in a comment section are so dumb they apologized for what happened and some fucking people from India criticizing that they should follow the rules lol even in Europe we have right to carry kirpan bcoz maybe gore can understands Sikh religion more then some people in India

It will take ages western world to understand Indian religions and significance of their religious symbols. Till then we have to suffer unfortunately.

It's sad to know.. The students dont know and understand about each other culture or religion..

I don't understand why people bring all this religious sentiments to educational institutions.. \nPut all ur sentiments,faiths, believes outside the university.

Dont be stupid, dont wear a fucking knife expecting everyone to understand your religion

I understand the safety concern. Even here in India, i have never seen a Sikh wearing kirpan like that over the clothes. It's mostly inside the t shirt.

I personal never ever heard a sikh misusing his kirpan.\nI understand safety is upmost priority \n\nbut on funny note ....Every American carrying an attitude should be arrested when entering India.\n\nATTITTITUDE is lethal too

I can understand if it rule and same for all, but there was no need to handcuff him it is well known that all sikhs carry such knives what is the fuss?

You cannot display and carry the weapon around like that. I understand it’s got a religious significance, but this keeps other people on the edge. Practice your religion freely until it doesn’t affect/interfere others.

I hope khalistani supporters will understand the level of freedom of they enjoy on India and still rallying for a separatist movement

Please keep away religious practice from public places… and try to understand the logic why it was needed in past . Time has changed, grow up!

His crime the color of ur skin also something someone doesn’t understand brings a level of fear

Bro you need to understand that place is not India where you have every freedom about culture in the name of secularism

I understand it's ur religion but ur religion should not threaten others too.

We also have to see things from their perspective.... these things r alien to them...it will take time for them to understand Indian religions....\nHe stayed cool that's nice

Maybe he has religious intentions but we need to understand its not India, its USA and they have their own laws + there are many many incidents where school shooting happens or people get killed by things so people are scared of anything that they think can harm them. I am not saying calling police on someone is right just bcz they are following religion but we need to know where to follow your religion. Applies for india too, we can't take kirpan in colleges in india, can we?

So sad as a Muslim I can understand how annoying or frustrating or embarrassment this kind if things are.
