This is nothing but an invasion you can clearly see these people do not have any respect for our country or our country's laws.\n Shame on our government especially President Biden and the Secretary of DHS for allowing this.\nPlease we all have to remember as these illegal immigrants lighting flooding across our border are bringing fentanyl which has killed over 70,000 Americans in just one year.\nThey are not being vetted guaranteed to be rapists murderers and child molesters mixed in with these people pouring over our border.\nENOUGH

What if we just let them? I’m not pro illegal immigration but would it really be all that bad? Most people attempting to come here are not criminals or free loaders like the media has made you believe. We are suffering population decline to the point we will have too many elderly and not enough tax payers to support the elderly. This can help solve that problem as well increase our economy. Meh.

I have no problem with immigration. WHEN ITS DONE LEGALLY. That said, it’s not just South Americans coming across the border. People from ALL OVER the world are. Even terrorists. And our government does not care.

good news....better immigrants than white people were!

Crazy how 90% of these people aren't even Mexican. Even the people in Mexico are tired of all the immigrants passing through.

They should’ve started firing, rubber bullets into the crowd, and if that didn’t work, real bullets. We don’t have enough housing and resources for the people that are here already. Legally I’m not even gonna early and the people that are already here illegally. I emigrated here 22 years ago legally. Illegal immigration is a problem for everyone. Legal immigration benefits everyone. If you can’t understand the difference between the two, you should stay out of the conversation.

Some of you people commenting needs to be sent to the places these immigrants came from and live there in their place for years to see what it was like for them. Some of you people, if the shoe was on the other foot, you would be trying to do the same thing that they are trying to do. Grow a f'n heart. And ban me CBC for abbreviating a swear word, I don't care. You did years ago for less. No f'n freedom of speech any more!

Didn't Venezuela already sue Obama for the US immigration policy back in 2014? They did because these mass migrations crash the South American economy's because there's no one working. If only these people fought as hard in their country...

I myself went to Canada legally through Person International Airport holding Canadian visa but it took several years for the Immigration Canada to look at my application while people my other country mates were entering Canada illegally, but their case approved and were granted status. I was very disappointed the reason at that time the Canadian Immigration minister was a Somalian and migrant who was against migration.

people worked very hard to immigrate to canada, legally, me included. spent 4 years in school, 3 years in professional jobs, and couple thousand dollars for application fees, and 3 years of waiting. I do not welcome illegal immigrants, if you want to come to Canada, do it legally.

Start using deadly force to protect our sovereignty. If you dont wanna get hit then dont invade our home. Immigrate the correct way instead of skipping the line and causing others who actually follow the rule to suffer. We are a sovereign nation and our sovereignty needs to be respected. Especially by people who expect to make our home their home.

LMAO all these privileged Muricans whining about migrants in the comment section with a surprised Pikachu face while completely ignoring (1) the extent to which the Global South is exploited by the First World to keep most of the people in poverty, and (2) climate change, which is overwhelmingly driven by First World emissions thanks to hyper-consumption, is only going to accelerate immigration.

Took my family 16-20 years to legally immigrate to America and these people feel that they are entitled to just come over here whenever and have taxpayers pay for their welfare. American first.

These are people. Mass immigration isn't new. Every one in the comments has had ancestors who's done something like this a some point. And if you were in their shoes you'd probly put on your zapatos and try to come here to. Yall ever heard of the LLC? Greatest invention ever. I can start an entity and if it goes insolvent I can let it die with no responsibility. It's called bankruptcy. Every thing we judge people over, we have a part of that in ourselves. So sympathy and compassion should be deployed. As a country we should wish to have a program in the future built with ai and robots that would allow for processing of people at a much faster rate to integrate them into the economy effectively.

It's about time we don't have the money, we have a health care shortage. We can't keep letting able body Citizens whether born here or not live off Welfare going back generations. No one's screening the people who have already crossed over then once they get Citizenship they can bring all there relatives here is ridiculous enough is enough. If we had the resources is one thing but still screen anyone coming into Canada. We don't need other countries criminals & any more diseases brought here. We went through SARS then COVID-19 is here to stay.Try helping the people we already have you're burdening an already over burdened system. I'm not a cold hearted person actually the opposite just do it through immigration rules & policies. If there from Syria sure help them reach out to families that may be able to take 1,2 or maybe more into there homes to help.Quebec & other Cities or Towns in Canada can help too. The rich get richer & then there's the working poor & those who live off the system. Look what Free Trade did to this Country! People are working more for less & the cost of living is through the roof along with food prices.

YOU GO TO THOSES COUNTRYS AND THE PEOPLE FROM USA CANT BUY LAND THEY COME HERE AND THEY GET EBT SNAP MEDICAL HOUSEING AND SOCIAL SECURITY I WAS SHOCKED TO WITNESS THAT AMERICANS THEY ARE STEALING FROM US SEND THEM ALL BACK PERIOD. ARE MIDDLE SCHOOLS HIGH SCHOOL ARE OVER Crowded WITH ALL THEM IMMIGRANTS AND THEY COME HERE AND HAVE ALL THOSE BABIES BORN HERE ITS INSANE STOP STOP GO BACK TO YOUR COUNTRY ?????????????????????????????????????????

This is absolutely unacceptable we need to secure and shut the border down now!!! Why is it so fucking hard for these people to get anything done at our borders? It's almost like the illegal immigrants are being given a free pass to invade our country with impunity

United state of America and Canada yoir always told to another country about humanity and immigration. Why now your not give permission them ???? It is all like a game . \nThose who are that came to usa with spend money and seen problems. To seeking the aslym in canada. The are can not live in usa with a high cost of money and not erne money from any job. \nImagine that. It is so hard a woman with baby and children ir a parent with children who can the solve the problem of finical???? \nI hope to people find a way to enter to canada and make a life more easy without problems. If you jot open the door jobiden you give money to pocket of refugee in roxham road . \nIm so sad for this . \nPlease pray for them? ?

I've noticed, here in Canada, that immigrants don't even try to learn the language anymore.\nThey live in clusters so why learn?\nWe have needy people already, we don't need folks jumping the line. It negates the work real immigrants do to get in legally.

Where do people get off demanding to be let into a country? Every single country in the world has immigration rules. They are their for a reason. People need background checks, a skill set that is needed, and a way to support themselves once here. We have tried bringing relatives legally just on a tourist visa and they were denied. Even after we paid the application fee, showed bank accounts, etc. so anyone who just thinks they have the right to come here better think again. That’s just the way it is until reform. Opening the floodgates to anyone is not reform, it’s chaos. Would you let just anyone walk into your house uninvited?

Shame on those in here whining about what they don't get that refugees get. We have access to all of that and more. Did you know that the basic needs that are provided to refugees or immigrants must be paid back to the government? They get a loan, we don't just give people money because they want to live here. Once they get their SSN and are deemed fit(usually means they speak and write English) for work they are required to find work. Many come from war torn countries or unable to provide food for their children or a safe place to live. Are you that unfeeling you don't want to help them? Canada used to be compassionate and helped others. It wasn't so long ago that our relatives immigrated here for a better life.

As an immigrant myself, this is so wrong. They need to stop lying to these people making them think it's raining money and kittens over here. Life isn't easy, they come because dumb ass Biden is feeding them false hopes and expectations.

There hundreds of thousands of people applying to come to Canada legally, why others should be allowed to sneak in here. No arrests either. It cost money to keep lawyers for them , and to feed them. Just another trick from Immigration Canada bcs eventually they ll all get here under the Refugee Convention's rules. Just send them home. One way ticket.

Stop all immigration for the next 5 years. Send them all Back.\n First we need to fix this country, people living on the streets, people living in poverty, lack of affordable housing and food. Then overhaul our social safety net programs from coast to coast to coast and get all the free loaders off it and back to work. Then we need to take a look at all the Indigenous communities living in the middle of nowhere with nothing to do, except wonder if there going to go hunting fishing or collect fire wood for the day living off government checks! Then once all that crap is fixed let's see how many legal immigrants and only legal immigrants we need to let into this country.

Leave these damn people alone! let them through, you're all immigrants, get over it.

Well it's about time they closed it down, they brought all these immigrants in put them up an expensive hotels well we have our Canadian people living on the streets in tents. Where any of these immigrants and immigrants before them search for bringing in drugs like Fentanyl, and now the new drug trank.

Although I've been against illegal immigration (but NOT legal immigration), we have got to realize that it is the politicians of our day who have caused this problem, not the immigrants. If you were given a promise of a better life than you currently have, with no strings attached, wouldn't you take it? The current politicians RULING Canada (not governing) have allowed this situation to continue only so as to line their political pockets with people willing to thank them by voting for them in the next election. Canadians be damned ... the politicians could care less about you or me.

The country's that's bringing the war to another country's like United states ???? , ????, ???? etc. You have to stop bringing the war to Africa, Afghanistan etc. who bring the war in our country DRC Congo ???? isn't you people now is more than 25 years of war in DRC Congo you people are supporting Rwanda to bring war in DRC Congo more than 12 million people are killed by Rwanda armies RDF/23 terrorists until today war is continuing to be tough and people are killing every single day but community international is silent about it ???? and you are continuing to support Paul kagame president of Rwanda ?????? what do think about congolais people we will stay to the place where they are killing us? ?? .but if the will be peace to all country's like Canada you will not start seeing lots of immigrants. But if the war continues to be and the immigrants will continue to come. Who knows today the war is in DRC Congo, Somalia etc. But tomorrow it will be to another country, the Ukrainians people they was don't know if one they can flight or running away from them country to be a refugees to another country but today they are everywhere like congolais people is because of war and the didn't expecting it to be but because of situations that is going on the have to look for protection. Big power country you have to stop bringing the war to another country because that it would make everyone to stay safe to them country please this is not fair, people are passing in lots of things to arrive here in Canada or United states is no easy to be to destination so many many people are dead on the ways to come to Canada and United states and the dead bodies are just lifted it on the desert etc. Canada is first country in the world to have love to one another to know value of human being and to respect others I hope you will continue to have the same good hearts Canadian people are having and all things we committed in the hands of God ???? . Thank you so much for understanding to read this and God bless Canada. And if you had not been in the war ask us who we was born in the war and growing up in and have our children in the war. Don't laugh to your neighbors oh her son or daughter died for you is a party but remember today is to your neighbors and tomorrow it will be your tour. Good luck to all my brothers and sisters immigrants who come in this badly situation I hope God will open another way to cross in ??

the og people in these 2 countries are being wiped out by immigrants we are ending up homeless so they can have a house and say we are a issue if you go and poll people like i did you will find in most homes is a family from another country and lots of canadians and u.s citizens on the street not being able to rent a home and those that come here start to say we are the issue

Funny these stories of people flying through all these countries and the leaving the US to come here. Must be nice to have that kind of money. \n\nSo happy to see the border close. Go back to the US. We’re tired of paying for immigrants while they contribute nothing. \n\nThey’re safe in the US. They can stay there. Canadians are going without housing because immigrants are getting preferential treatment. NO. Sick of this. Safe third country? F that. First safe country only. Nobody should be cherry picking where they’re going if they’re really in so much danger. \n\nScrew them. It’s time Canada start looking after Canadians first. Our people are sleeping under tarps and these people with their 11 children are put up in hotels. \n\nNah. You can stay where you’re at.

They allowed people in ...this way, simply because they need cheap, desperate manpower in this country. Don’t be naive and think the authorities don’t know what they’re doing . Anyone who is familiar with the NORMAL immigration process knows all too well how long, and how difficult the Normal process is.

It doesn’t seem to be much different if they’re just shunting these people to the Immigration office down the road and given resources. Are they sending people who don’t qualify as legitimate asylum seekers back? Or do they just give these people papers and voila! They are now legal and proceed to be provided housing, food, etc.\nWhere are these people coming from?

This is just a big bunch of bullshit. They will still bring the dirty illegal immigrants in and give them all welfare! Meanwhile they do nothing for the people that built Canada.

Keep the fentanyl out. Help the legal immigrants, stop the human traffickers. Great start and pray for the people who need a new start\n❤ Unfortunately Welcome to a broken Canada who's leader is not fit to run a daycare. ?

This needs to be closed… period. There is legal immigration and it’s not walking across a border. We have seniors and veterans living in poverty, people living in the streets in -20 (I see them). Take care of our Canadians.

Will I tried bring my wife through the immigration system but they denied her for sponsorship. But yet people can cross through the USA with out any documents that's not fair to the average Canadian that's trying to bring his wife from overseas Canadian system is not a fair system .

Is this why 650,000 extra people immigrated to Canada in 2022?

People should understand this is roughly Indian land. My people wanted to come over, are indigenous to this land. We’re not the immigrants.

No more white supremacists supporting immigrants! To undermind black people;

America sees illegal immigrants, I see people who need help. But what do I know??‍♂️

Canada has been run into the ground by government after government for 40 or 50 years now. Every level of government in Canada serves itself at the expense of the people paying taxes. All government employees have unshakeable job security, unbelievable benefits and pensions, and a total lack of accountability of any kind. Debt has been run up over this period continuously at every government level. In spite of the huge taxes, government continues to borrow ever more money to serve itself.\nI wrote a letter to then Prime Minister Brian Mulroney decades ago asking why the government was continuously running deficits and how did he expect to pay for it all? All I got back in response was a bull$hit form letter. Now with the liberals in government you can see the bloat in government and it's spending increasing even more than under the conservatives.\nThe most frustrating thing about Canada and Canadians is that they keep voting in incompetent and spend thrift governments. It seems that in Canada the dream is to get yourself a cozy government job and just turn into a taker rather than a creator. This idea seems to be very strong in new immigrants as well.\nCanada is done. Stick a fork in it and turn it over.

Legal imigration. I spent a lot of time and money immigrating my wife . Three years later and a couple of attorneys she Is now in the United States with me. My grandparents immigrated here the legal way as well. They would call these people line jumpers.

We need better immigration reform. They looked bad letting the Ukrainians up the line. It has people thinking F. The laws. More then before. Their actions spoke louder then their laws.

This is such a biased video. If Canada is so awesome, why is it still empty? Why do immigrants move to Canada just as a stepping stone to eventually move to the US? Why is Canada begging immigrants to move in and bending over backwards to get as many people in as possible? I know quite a few Canadians that moved to the US for a better life and opportunities, I honestly don’t know any American that’s done the same. Your math isn’t mathing. \n\n?? ?? ?? Proudly American.

Canada has benefitted from the US being next to Mexico forever when it comes to immigration. People should be able to run away from their country but it shouldn't be the sole responsibility of the US to pay and take care of everyone. I agree with bussing.

The comments are full of racists. They do not know that Canada is a country of immigrants and refugees. There is no such thing as a Canadian race. All thanks to people coming from different countries.

Go through the refugge application properly or get sent back. You cannot tell people that they have to go through a rigourous immigration application all for this to be a loophole. \nThe Canadian government has already exploited the real estate market as a comodity to the point that people cannot afford to live where they work.

Wait, people actually want to immigrate to Canada lmao.

That's nice, deserved and wish millions more reach up to Canada in that way.\nIsn't Canada asking for immigrants? There you go, why ask for master degrees and Phd? To flip burguers, scoop ice creams, clean toilets? Never seen an immigrant working in their field in Canada and always working nutjobs for minimum wage in a very high COL country.\nJust pay and don't complain, that's why you are rich because of colonialism, slavery, rape and explotaition.\nThese people are just asking for some retribution since minery Canadian companies rape other for countries their resources and pay peanuts for it.

What is this registration I hear that's 4 illegal immigrants? These people come here and it does affect our us benefits jobs and housing..us citizens are still suffering yet limited help is available. Biden cares more about Ukraine and illegal immigrants than hw does about the American people ?
