I moved to Halifax from India. Lived there 2 years, moved to Etobicoke then Kitchener, then Waterloo and now leaving in Brampton.\nIts been 7 years in Canada and 1.5 years in Brampton.\n\nWhen someone asks me why you live in Brampton, it’s unsafe city or ghetto. I am like hell no, never leaving Brampton. Brampton is safe city compare to some other GTA cities, look at statistics. Its just have bad name because of lots of south asian people.\n\nBrampton is brampton, only place I feel belonged and enjoying living in Canada with little Indian tweest. \n\nBrampton takes away our dependency on cooking during hectic days as restaurants are hell cheap, easy to find home-cooked tiffin with lots of options. Main reason easy to find Gujarati foods and other vegetarian food. Tons of pure vegetarian Indian restaurants in Brampton.\n\nGreat feelings come when you are tried and don’t want to cook and at same time don’t want to eat in restaurants then home-cooked food is always available to your neighbourhood for just 6-7 dollar.

I dont care what Muslims think! Its NOT thier country! You do what is the custom of the country you are in! Females from Canada MUST cover up if they visit a Muslim country, so when muslim females are in Canada, take off the clown suit and dress like NORMAL Canadians or DONT come to Canada!!!!

Let Canada have all immigrants, they are a burden not a benefit on American tax dollars with welfare and working jobs under the table, taking jobs from Americans. The money they drain from the system should be used for veterans, military, seniors and Americans not foreigners

Present Prime Minister of Canada has lost his mind, through him Canada will be taking over...

surprised to hear Canada didn't kiss his ass and ask him to stay. From what i understand, they are So open minded and welcoming (for now anyhow until about 25 million show up ..)  My heart goes out to any one, but we in the USA have got to put the brakes on. We can only take in so many.   Just an additional comment ...he is here 15 years and doesn't speak Englsih?????

there are dozens of flaws in Canada's immigration system. I am surprised to see that a person who has not spent a single minute in Canada enters the country as a permanent resident . has not paid a single dollar in taxes enters as a permanent resident. has not played his part in Canada's society and doesn't know fuck about Canada enters as a permanent resident of Canada. it does not surprise me to see people commenting about residents living in Canada do not speak English. \n \nI will give an example of the UK here which is far more developed than Canada and have very high standards. first of all, no one can enter the UK as a permanent resident of the UK. even if their partner is British, they will still come to the UK on a visa. depending on how much their British partner earns, it will take 5 to 10 years for them to settle in the UK, provided they pass the residency test in the UK(which Canada does not ask for whether you are in Canada applying for a PNP or PR or you come directly from another part of the world). a person who gets in the UK as a student spends minimum 7 years, if he is not married to a British /EU national to get a PR, most spend 10 for a UK PR(known as ILR in the UK) provided they pass the test for English and life in the UK (citizenship test). in return, the UK offers to its residents what no other nation offers. canada is giving away residencies as if its a leaflet. it's easier to get a Canadian residency than it is to extend a skilled visa in the UK. I have lived in Canada and felt that standard of living in canada is not very high as compared to the UK. so if Canada offers easy residency to people, it is only because they also know they are not giving away something precious :)

Conservatives opened the door for these maggots, now the liberal sold the entire country, what is going on Canada? They all need to be deported because they don't need Canada. From what you can see, they just come here to take advantage of our social and economical security, they steal the money from the tax payers, that's the biggest advantage, while the homeless frozen to death in downtown of every major cities of Canada. This has to stop!

I believe that this person should of stayed where he was, and never take any risk to go to Canada.

I think the government knew about it a lot earlier but chose to ignore it. Many people even still commit visa fraud to gain entry. Express entry is highly vulnerable and used by many people take advantage. I can even name a person. Akhil Choudhary, Misrepresented/hide info about work experience and unlawful immigration activities that he did in USA. When the US government kicked him out he went to Canada. you can find him at www.linkedin.com/in/smarketinguru. Crime does actually pays. He is well and earning good. Even encouraging others. I just wish that government takes a note of it.

Total idiot. I think the U.S. should invade Canada and bring it into American control. This guy is more interested in cute socks and pardoning terrorists. Total jerk. Let's take that country.

Canada has a very high standard of living, it's not exactly welcoming to people who are not familiar with that status. If you don't come prepared or think it's all gravy you're delusional, life is hard anywhere you go. We just benefit the very lazy with many welfare programs, that you can take advantage of, honestly, or dishonestly whom i know many who abuse the system.

like any immigration the found a loophole and cannot be rightfully charged under Canadian law that way Canada is a very good place to hind in there are protected as immigrants or as a Canadian it should be the birthplace is you first them Canada not when you get into trouble in your homeland that Canada needs to help you \nsame as when ISIS saying they are from Canada. Canadian has turn there backs on the terrorists and let the law over there take care of them why would Canada have to house a terrorist Canadian should punch them by death on coming back Canadians have done this in the passed to Canadian in the first world war and the second as well Canadian law is outdated we need to have substantial law in place for this meaning death will have less immigration thinking to come to Canada

Muslims dont like it there in thier country, they want to be there in the west because its already dtablished. But they dont like Christianism thats why thry dnnt study in Chtistian school. They take advantage the freedom of the natipn. Quran is not good. Burn it Canada!

Should have applied legally, then would have all your money and know you would or would not have been accepted in Canada. You want to take illegal shortcuts that is the risk you take to break our laws. Don't feel sorry for you at all.

We have to take care of our own and take care of our people before crippling the system as the Liberal clown show has done and slowly turning our economy into a third world nation!! This refugee didn't get in because he's not a Muslim as Hussen wishes to let in!! More than half of the refugee that come into Canada are not persecuted and that's the bases for asylum and the ones that are in are Muslim from the states that are not prosecuted. The lying Liberals are all show and no substance!! Time to vote these incompetent corrupt village idiots out of office and hopefully they get a zero vote and not a seat in parliament after 2019!!

Oh! Canada! Take me! I'd love to live there legally. Almost have 10 years of graphic design experience and still can't migrate because of money.

All he got was 7 years and a fine of $900,000 when he made millions and cost the country billions. No justice in Canada so no wonder new ones come and take their place.

No. Canada cannot take a lot of people -- that is utter conventional wisdom madness. A road to implosion.

so canada is making people follow their immigration laws. so why are people criticizing the US for making people follow their immigration laws? canada is soooo welcoming ? i dont think so! full of canadian liberal propaganda! if so welcoming then take ALL the people in the migrant caravan in mexico. take them all!

Well, at least Chinese immigrant won't give out terrorism attack and beg for coins after they landed Canada. Most ppl would like to live here, but the immigration process takes a long time ( like a year) they don't know what to do just relying on what the immigration agency ask them to do and they have a job back in their own country and cannot forsee an employment right after landing.

i can tell you no chinese person is surprised that chinese people take advantage of canada.

i say throw them all out of Canada and take every penny from them they own

1. its just wt rich ppl with money do, they dont put their eggs in one basket and spread their wealth all over the world. the political climate in china probably further extravagate this even further as they have no real security to their assets, the government can seize any time for legal reasons (china have tax but nobody pays them, the government doesnt collect business and personal tax as their revenue. but if u get on their wrong side they will use this as an excuse. if u pay taxes properly u cant compete with ppl who dont, so yea governement use this shady trick in china).\nJust look at any millionare, they probably have investment all over the world. the reason y we r seeing this with chinese is that they've gotten their wealth recently and have just started this diversification of asset hence the scale and timing. japanese had their time, Indians will probably have their time soon once they develop. its like seeing lottery winners buying ferrari, just a normal thing to see, but ppl will get uncomfortable and shame them lol.\n2. this reason is minor but chinese passport is really inconvenient when travelling, having a canadian or US passport helps alot if they r doing international business.\n\nNow to the claims of taking over and colonisation, the ppl claiming colonisation r probably from US canada or australia. ppl r mostly afraid of the things theyve done or think to do to others, i doubt any chinese are thinking about colonisation when its not really their mindset. the worst chinese are thinking are u praising or kowtow them, otherwise they really dont care hence y they kinda just live in their own little groups rather than aggresively pushing political agenda on ur face.

What's going on here? How is this man acting bossy after all he's done? I live in China and believe me, you can't do this in China. You will be deported and everything you have will be seized without a single reason. How is he still in Canada? Why would the Chinese respect the Canadian gov't if you won't take actions on people who commit such crimes in the country?

If he helped cheated on other's immigration proceedings, he must have cheated on his. Just look into his past immigration application, then Canada can take away his citizenship. Also, you should be able to seize all his asset because they are the proceeds of his crimes.

They came to Canada to invest in the housing market. Many owners of houses and condos in Toronto/Richmond Hill and other areas live in China and pay managers to rent their property and take care of the money for them. China requested Canada to hand over Chinese citizens who took illegal sums of Chinese funds out of China but Canada refused due to the harsh Chinese sentences for that crime. Wealthy Chinese are laundering Billions of funds in the Canadian housing market and other investments. Although there are many other reasons for the Canadian housing bubble the fact remains that many young people and families residing in Canada can’t afford the inflated housing prices. Many Chinese come to Canada for their holidays, and one reason I know when they arrive is because my doctor is Chinese and every spring the office is packed with Chinese people who come to get their annual free check up, they all have Canadian citizenship and health cards too.

Well done Fifth Estate. The Chinese have completely taken over. I watch the border crossing show sometimes and when they come back from “vacationing “ in China and pretend that they haven’t brought anything with them and when their bags are inspected they have tons of stuff and have way exceeded the limits and they barely get a verbal reprimand. Let me see a Canadian whose family has been here for 9 generations get away with this. They are dishonest, money laundering scam artists. Yet, Canada still welcomes them with open arms. When will the Canadian government wake up? Having them take over this country is an insult to hard working Canadians and other honest immigrants. When they commit a crime of any type they should be deported. They’re always bragging about how rich their country is, then why do they want to come here? We haven’t invaded their country! Not that any sane person would want to.

Wow, Canada has Immigration Laws? Who knew? Now they are deporting that poor illegal who has more money than me? Those heartless Canadians, they should have open borders and take care of all those poor people. They have free health care, free everything right? Please, all you illegals here in the US, go to Canada, they will welcome you, unlike us the Mean USA who gives you opportunities as long as you Follow The Rules and enter LEGALLY.

You can't blame them, it's not their fault. Governments let refugees migrate and the refugees want to take over just like what's happening here in Ontario Canada ??. There is a new Islamic party of Ontario! I don't like it! ..do you!?

A fight is coming canada. A fight that will take place here, in Canada, on our streets... on your street. Prepare.

CBC Trudeau obsequious news. Why would we believe them ? ... oh, it's just a wee thing that affordable housing might be an issue (in a very cold Country) and Provinces are paid back by some quota... we know how the Liberals pay back (chump change) .. and oh, these immigrants are going to make Canada more prosperous... No mention of the Globalist agenda .. Trudeau is a BIG GLOBALIST ... taking over these immigrant's Countries is part of the plan

“ Hidden radical sentiments “- the liberal Muslim lady well said .. \nthis sentiments will drive the radicals living in Canada to destroy that country .. Canada take precaution and do a Polygraph test of each people entering to your country and filter out radicals .. if you want, allow peace loving , non radical , good Muslim only ..

Let's roll America............ the bad part for them is we can see them from miles away they don't blend in very well I'm sure when they start trying to bulshit in America we Americans will take care of them Canada is full of a bunch of wimps

Canada you guys and Gals need to rise up and take your country back

over seven billion people in the world, just under thirty six million of them in canada, do the math, we just can't afford to take in everybody.

If the boy somehow is installed again as PM, then someone will assassinate him. If someone doesn't, then I will. Canada cannot take any more of him if we are to survive.

Trudeaus, are you going to pay for the caravan hotels? Why don't you take them to Canada?

you need a certain amount of money to live on for 2 years plus job prospect plus no criminal record a good edjucation to come here legally so Canadians that pay super high taxes do not need to worry about taking care of people that think they can just come here and exspect its people.to support them and there families .You cant get welfare for 2 years either.We need to keep Canada a.smart and wealthy country .Yes we can help some in very bad situations but we are.only as strong as our weakest people . We need the best to be the best.To many people.think they can just come here because they feel like.it and they think they will have a easy life.\nWe.dont want any blood suckers only.good hard woking people.If that isnt you dont come because you wont be welcomed .If you are a good person then welcome to Canada and help us build this country and leave the bs that you left where you came from becauae we dont want it here..\nthanku

Yale/MIT has produced a study indicating that there are 22 million illegal aliens residing in the US. That's twice the previous estimate. Canada can take all of them.

I agree that everyone that comes from another country have to come to The United States or Canada legally it is hard but you would do whatever it takes to come to another country legally

If that caravan reaches US soil...I have no doubt they will go straight towards Canada ?‍♂️ then they will try to change our culture history and the housing market will suffer. Please protect our own citizens before others!!! Don’t get me wrong, I have a co-worker who came here in Canada legally and paid so much money to work here legally. No problem with that as he is contributing to our society and pays taxes. However this caravan marching towards US and most likely continue north will 100% drain our resources! First we need to provide shelter, food, clothing and expenses to live day by day. Let’s take on our own citizens’ homelessness issues (tent cities) first before welcoming those who just decides to invade other countries just because their country can’t provide...

i cant wait for trump to take over canada theres no way the us is going to allow a muslim state beside them

Before I moved to Brampton, I had no idea HOW MANY Indians actually lived here. I'm of south Asian descent but I grew up here as a Canadian. I still keep my culture but I'm Canadian FIRST. It's true too, some of them don't believe in deodorant, holy shit I literally had to tell a guy who sat beside me on the bus that he smelled. I know it was rude but if someone doesn't tell these people, they will think not wearing deodorant is normal. I miss the Canada I grew up in. My friends were mostly white but there was a nice mix of us: white, black, asian so we all got along. Today, everyone is in their own groups, strangers are the enemy, there is so much more segregation than there has ever been. Not long ago at a Tim Hortons I heard an Indian guy who was clearly new to the country telling his friend he didn't have to learn English because everyone in Brampton speaks Punjabi, it was insulting hearing that.....Listen up Indians and any immigrants coming here: BEFORE you come here, learn English, LEARN the customs and learn the CANADIAN WAY. You owe it to Canada, give something back before you start taking.

STOP TAKING MUSLIMS IN CANADA AS IMMIGRANT.

He can't speak English.. WTF... We can't save the world. While here in Canada he is working illegally and taking the job of a Canadian. Go away,

He loves the United States so much he took the time to learn English in the 15 years he was here. Stay in Canada and take the rest of the leeches with you.

@TuckerCarlson \n\nThe Canadian prime minister, is trying to take away freedom of speech, by passing an anti islamophobia law\n\nWhich essentially, will not allow Canadian citizens, to criticize islam, which is an ideology, and not a religion \n\nAnd, to make matters worse, the Canadian prime minister, has been exposed, as a muslim convert, and is in bed, with the Muslim Brotherhood, as well as members, of his cabinet\n\nAnd we all know, that The Muslim Brotherhood, is a terrorist front, for CAIR America\n\nMultiple levels of the Canadian government, have been infiltrated, by The Muslim Brotherhood, and no one in Canada is speaking, or sanding up to these interlopers

When You take a decision and not sure about it internally, suffering from continuous inner conflict, you tend to justify it with absurd reasoning. Absurd reasoning such as you earn maximum 10,000 rupees or 5000 Rupees salary in India. The problem is the kind of effort and hard work they put in Canada , had they put the same In India they would have been in a much better financial condition. Need not to sell ganne ka juice for $5?, just kidding! \nBy the way I myself stay out of India and I do agree Indian cities need to upgrade quality of living. We can stop migration of youths by improving our cities standard, and yes its going on albeit slowly.

FOX ENTERTAINMENT NEWS is taking Russian laundered money... Watch the pile of Federal Indictments about to drop on FOX. \nFOX WENT TO THE TROUBLE TO HIT ONE OF THE NATO COUNTRIES ( CANADA ) WITH ALOT OF ANTI CANADA POSTS..... Fu Russia backed media, You forget CANADA is one of the Allies 5 eyes... We are reading ur signals to Fox.

Ice is sending all illegals backs costing citizens to much when they don't work and demand things that really their not even suppose to get . They work the minimum if that and then stay on welfare while everyone else who works taxes go up bunch of free loaders . In fact we are cutting welfare and and benefits because of this we try to be nice but when we are token advantage of . Sorry are states are full of these freeloaders were also cutting letting people in because they don't do anything but demand money when their not even suppose to get in the first place then they hate us anyway and go around flying their damm flag around hollering Mexico . Mexico don't even want them they refuse to take them . They are just using them to get votes . We have enough people Canada can keep them . If he get caught here they will jail him. We are tired of the Victim act many people here have issues here to . United States has taken care of everyone around the whole world when war happens , trading but we get the short stick everytime . Beside when war break out which it will. Do you really think United States is the safest considering we're Babylon. Tell me something why are Hollywood people moving to different places ? It's only a matter of time .
