They spent their life living in poverty and misery and in one day you people can snap your fingers and change everything about their lives who cares if it's an improvement they're still going to hate you most probably for being better then them in the first place

When I think about my time in Canada, it's bittersweet. I moved there for my undergraduate studies and spent 5 great years soaking up the Canadian culture. After graduating from McGill University, I had a tough time finding a job. Fortunately, I had the support of my boyfriend and didn't struggle with housing, especially in more affordable Montreal.\n\nWe moved to Australia a few months ago, and wow, what a change! I do miss my Canadian friends, but I can't complain about not having to tip for a take-out coffee here! As well as not paying an astronomical amount for asking for alternative milk!

The gov has received so much money from new immigrants, but failed to spend it properly . The PM just know how to show off himself and spent our tax money on ridiculous area.

I'm 27 and I have 35k saved. I've made so much money over the years that has been spent on rent, paying back student debt, braces, food, taxes, my business expenses, and life in general. I'm hoping my business will continue to grow to the point where I don't need to be worried about retiring... but honestly, Canada is making it really hard. I feel like my 20s were over in a flash and I barely got to do anything but work

Canada is way overrated. I've spent so many years living there and now I am back in my country of birth. I regret immigrating to Canada 20 years ago. All those years that I've spent living in Canada I consider as waste of time. It turns out that I can make more money in my country of birth than in Canada. And it's safer than Canada. Western countries like Canada or US are just overhyped.

Too bad the working poor that's spent their life contributing to the american system don't get this kind of support for themselves their just expected to subsidize it for foreigners.

I want to ask you guys a question ( I am Canadian born ), but have had a lot of contact with Americans and have spent some time down in the USA. My question is, Do you think Canadians are passive aggressive compared to Americans? Kind of wishy washy? I find in dealing with Americans is that they are straight to the point and tend to cut out the BS.

Scary. No proper vetting. Not fair to those who spent thousands of money and time to get proper visas to enter

Manning the border is an easy problem to fix, we spent 800 billion on the military last year and each alphabet agency’s budget ranges from 1-15 billion. Needless to say there should be no shortage of resources and manpower in the executive arm of the government. Now many of them may not be excited about pay-cuts while being forced to field work and eternal guard duty for the rest of their careers but that’s something they need to reconcile with themselves as it was always a known possibility of happening to anyone living in a country with stressed borders.

My fellow concerned Americans!\nWe cannot ignore the harsh reality that our hardworking families struggle to make ends meet. We pay, only to find ourselves living paycheck to paycheck while foreigners receive free food, housing, and a luxurious monthly stipend of 1400 dollars - a sum that could be life-changing for many of these families. \n \nIt's disconcerting to note that those who contribute so considerably to the nation's finances are left with little by way of compensation. The government's provision of free education, though commendable, stands in stark contrast to the generous allowances granted to foreigners. Why should our citizens' hard-earned money be spent on others first, only to have their own basic needs ignored? \n \nConsider a mother and father working multiple jobs just to provide for their children - and yet they don't even come close to receiving that 1400 dollars in financial support. Meanwhile, those who haven't contributed nearly as much are given such ample handouts. Is this the system we want in America?

During the last 4 years of Biden and Harris the US has spent 750 BILLION in your tax money on illegal migrants.\nThis is almost double all the tax dollars spent on the Ukraine War.

If those people came in this Country without a Visa they are called illegals and they are apart of the reason why this Country would collapse financially because guess what?? They gotta be fed too and clothed and have schooling just like the rest of us . and that’s 24/7 treatment. too much citizens tax dollars to be spent.

It’s not a humanitarian crisis. It’s called open borders. It’s called illegal. It’s called our taxpayers money being spent on things most of us did not approve. Keep it real!

Two migrants from Ghana crossed into Manitoba, Canada, from the USA in the middle of winter. They were not dressed for such a trip and suffered severe frostbite before they were noticed by a trucker after crossing into Canada. They spent weeks recovering in hospital. Iyal lost all his fingers but kept his thumbs, while Mohammed lost all his fingers and thumbs. The two were granted refugee status in 2017. So the medical care was paid for by the Canadian taxpayer, and, since you need your fingers for even the most menial job, chances are they are still being kept by the taxpayer. The US & Canada need a comprehensive policy on migrants

My Aussie mate couldn't get a visa to come to the USA because of a minor weed offense 20 yrs ago. He would have spent a few thousand dollars supporting American businesses while here!

We were going to Chicago to visit family and took a wrong turn off. Ended up in a place I had only seen in movies. Cars jacked up and stripped , boarded up windows and a lot of of people in the streets. We were to afraid to stop and ask for directions. Cop car pulled up beside us, guns visable and angry looking police. Still didnt ask for help .\nMy baby spent 2 weeks in Sick Kids hospital. Major emergency surgery. They accidentally gave me a copy of the bill. It was well over $200,000. Never cost us a dime except for parking. \nI happily live in Canada and wouldn't be anywhere else.

The biggest impact on the declining economic productivity coincides with the Trump administrations trade war against Canada. They ripped up the previous trade agreement, and tabled a new one that attempted to devour Canadian industry. No one ever talks about this, and it's unfortunate. That coupled with the pandemic, resulted in a one-two punch to the Canadian economy. On top of that the amount of investment into automation in the energy sector over the past 10 years has reduced the demand for labour. And now with the ever expanding encroachment of AI on nearly every industry, the Canadian economy is facing an uphill battle. Many think that a prime minister is the main reason, when it's not. Canada is at the whim of US economic policy, which I fear is going to get even worse when Trump returns to office. A transition to Conservatives at the Federal level may lighten the load on a few things like Carbon Tax, and Income Tax (maybe), but they won't be the party to introduce limitations and regulations on investors that are responsible for driving up housing prices, by treating the housing market like it's a stock exchange. \nI will applaud Trudeau on winning over the EV battery plant, for pulling us out of bombing Syria and Iraq, for legalizing Marijuana, and for including Dental Care in health coverage (albeit limited...), but some of his decisions should have been better thought through, like the capital gains tax, and should only be targeting investors that have more than 3 properties. While he increased the budget for the Military, he's spent his first two terms ignoring it and that's severely hampered our readiness, and equipment. And while I do think we needed to boost immigration to stave off economic disaster, the current level that its at is problematic, and many bad faith actors are taking advantage of it and enriching themselves like the diploma mills.

I grew up in the USA; now have spent many years in Victoria, BC, Canada. Victoria is very very safe and peaceful but it is expensive and not a lot of economic opportunity compared to USA. No urge to leave Victoria, I don’t plan on leaving unless I want a super cheap retirement say in Terre Haute, Indiana. I have dual citizenship which is nice.

Newly released figures from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada show the federal government spent more than $100 million housing asylum seekers at hotels in Niagara Falls over the last year in 2023. That's $208 dollars per person PER DAY which is $6240 per person per month. Anyone finding anything wrong with this?

Why are people leaving? BEcause in the last 7 years we made a huge mistake of letting in too many people and spent less time developing ourselves and infrastructure. Way too many came and got seated in the usual big cities where things are getting worse. Right now there is a gradually increasing anti-immigrant sentiment, especially towards East Indians, Bangladeshiis and Pakistanis, and there is a worry about having existing culture turning too Islamic and Hindu. So you can often hear some pretty racist things or read some pretty racist stuff online.\n\nThe problem isn't immigration. Immigrants are amazing and we need them, but our country didn't play the long game and let in too many too fast. Right now esp[ecially for Bangladeshiis and Indians, is that ,many are coming illegally and getting a REFUGEE status, paying their own to do this who work in lawyerships [and you shoudl see the scamming being done by Indian and Bangladeshi Canadians who are just taking their former countrymen for everything they are worth!]: Canada is like a person taking on too much all at once and then resenting its choices once it becomes responsible for them. Between bad decisions and some very seedy practices by immigrants coupled with the general greed to own land....and you have a modern crisis.

As a British national I am ashamed of this guys conduct, however, some of the sinister comments require further investigation such as “we won’t leave until our objectives are achieved” suggesting some kind of coup or sharia law agenda, this type of comment will only increase the intolerance and hatred Muslims suffer from right wing extremists in the Uk, I spent 10 years working in Qatar and I respected Muslim culture and integrated. With my host nation including going to mosques to respectfully witness prayer. \nI welcome all Muslims to my country of birth that wish to contribute and most importantly integrate into our society. If you are not of that mind set then I will happily drive you to the airport myself.

Man, the housing crisis that’s going on. I am so fucking happy that I was able to find the basement that I’m in. Been here for over two years and now I’m moving to the country. I don’t know how it got that place. Some of my buddies spent almost a year, when I was trying to get into the basement I’m living in I was in a hotel and car for like six months.

Hi Abhi and Niyu. I really admire your videos as you guys do an in depth research and your videos are unbiased. You have truly highlighted the events in Canada. I would like to bring your attention to the unjust practices going on in Australia. They have recently made an amendment to the Temporary visa laws that bars students above 35 years of age from getting a TR if they are pursuing masters by coursework degree. It was not so earlier and just like that changed the law and students like me are left in limbo. I have completed 1 year of my MBA and now I have no where to go. I have lakhs of education loan on my head. One of my friend is moving back to India after 1 semester and she has spent till date around 30 lakh rupees. So please make a video on this topic and highlight to the world how these countries play with international students.

Its a well made video. A lot of points you have covered like housing , healthcare, student GIC is correct.\nSome of the things are not completely understood, as you are not here .\nMedical system had dental and eye care included but as they increased the immigrant population they did not keep up with services( am talking abt this change which happened in 1990s) .\nHousing is a result of the present govt policies. 2016- you could buy a house for 300k same which is over 1.1-1.3 million right now.\nThey got a lot of indian students here. \nNot blaming any, they are here for a future and they have spent money to be here but i have seen a lot of things happening which were not here before.\nOur people comming here need to understand that we will have to mix and take up some habbits from here. Agression, road rage are some of the things which were less here before.\n\nThe people are pushing back on immigration, i am an immigrant myself. Its a divide which was not seen before 2020 here though once you step out of your own country you will always be looked at differently, its the same as a north indian in south india or a south indian in north india but with a different tone.\n\nThe country has gone down, bad govt policies. Everyone is having a hard time\n1. Rising fuel prices\n2. Increasing grocerry bills\n3. Lack of jobs \n4. Not keeping the infrastructure according to population\n5. Degrading medical facilities\n6. Rising housing prices which then puts rental market in pressure

International students pay 4 times the tuition fees of local students, making them a lucrative source of revenue for colleges and universities. However, provinces changed the rules, making it harder for these students to apply for permanent residency (PR) after attracting them with that promise. Given Canada’s current economic situation, we should consider capping international student numbers, but it’s tough because the province created this issue. Meanwhile, Canada spent $5 billion on Ukraine and brought in half a million Ukrainians. Why is no one talking about this and blaming international students instead?

For a start Palestine was NEVER EVER Palestinian land. NEVER EVER in history before 1948 was there a Palestinian king or ruler that reigned or ruled over any nation or land in the Middle East. In fact Palestine is only a new name because prior it was Judea for a few thousand years then the Roman Empire changed the name Philistia Palestina which was named after the Phillistines which are not Arab but Greek origins. The Israeli Government FREELY GIFTED PALESTINE TO THE PALESTINIANS in 2005 for the sake of peace. But instead of the Palestinians being grateful for the FREE GIFT and prospering their people they spent the last 20 years spending billions of world aid money from the UN & UNWRA constructing tunnels and making missiles to shoot at Israel. HOW STUPID.

In Canada for the past 3 yrs, Completely agree. Canada and west is not what is propagated , it has its positives but India has its negatives but when you look at all things in a wholesome perspective then west nations are only for specific purposes. To live a normal good life nothing beats India. Many people can’t return as they have spent huge sums of money and can’t afford to return back.

What people forget is that this was an ACCIDENT. It could literally happen to anyone, regardless of skin color or country of origin.\nJune 2023, Manitoba's deadliest traffic accident occurred during a vehicle collision between a handi-transit bus and a semi-truck on the Trans-Canada Highway in the Municipality of North Cypress – Langford near Carberry, Manitoba, Canada, killing .17 seniors.The driver was completely 100% at fault. FACT. And not one single charge was laid. \nThose lives were no less important than the lives at the Humbolt crash. Yet no one spent time in prison. \nI hope Mr Sidhu wins his appeal case and is allowed to stay in Canada.

The Arab world, especially the extremely wealthy Arab countries should then take on all the Muslim refugees that have fled to Europe and insist on turning Europe into the countries they fled as well as from all of the poorer Arab countries like Turkey that have taken them on. Take on the refugees from Afghanistan, Syria, Iraq etc and open your borders where less energy is spent on integration because you have both the language and religion as common ground and also similar cultures. Sure the economics might be vastly different from the refugees, but isn’t that your duty to Islam. Start with accountability with Gaza and what they did with land when Israel left as well as the West Bank, stop the blockades, and let them exploit their natural gas resources off of their shores. Let them stand on their own, cut off foreign aid especially from countries with who they do not have similar values with.

my biggest problem is most modern immigrants dont seem to care to become canadians, and uphold our standards and culture. they use and abuse our country, our resources, and systems, and overall make things worse for canadians who are born here, or have spent decades contributing. there aren't benefits to being a canadian anymore

To a Liberal I guess this is considered progress. I'm in the process of moving to a small town to get away from the big city. I just want my last few retirement years to be spent with real Canadians. Trudeau has cheapened the meaning of what used to be Canadian.

Look, you can worry about morality related to race.\nRacism isn't a crime.\nPreferring your own race and inherited culture isn't a crime.\nUntil we were invaded we didn't have to worry about racism.\nNow, racists who hate us can target and attack our people.\nMy own sister was attacked at a bus stop when carrying home her groceries by three black women.\nIt was an unprovoked attack, based on racism.\nIf you don't like racism, don't bring in tons of people of other races.\nIsn't that obvious? Don't you realize that being too tolerant and opened will expose you to unpleasant outcomes?\nDon't you lock your doors at night?\nIn your backwards way of thinking, wouldn't it be just more humane to leave your doors opened to homeless people?\nThe entire third world wants to be here.\nWhy not just open the borders to them?\nWhy keep them out?\nThey'll of course keep growing in number.\nBut who are you to defend yourself?\nThat's the big question.\nWho are Canadians and who aren't Canadians?\nWho can make a claim and who doesn't have the right to a piece of Canada?\nIs it just about money?\nWould you sell your family for money?\nIs there a question of national security?\nIf so, then the status quo is something to uphold along with law and order along with our own prosperity.\nTrudeau has spent our money, claiming the budget will balance itself.\nAnd this is the outcome.\nHow irresponsible of him, and how irresponsible of Canadians to have let him do it.

It's not just that they are Indian it's the gangs who move here who bring their bullshit with them from home it's become a very dangerous city and it won't stop cars are constantly racing up and down the street with no regard to human life they come here and buy all of the homes drive the market up I think Brampton also has the highest insurance rates because of the racing and complete idiots who don't think the rules apply to them I've spent my whole life in this city and it's falling apart

They built tunnels to kill Jews instead of building, businesses, schools, hospitals and homes. Hamas spent billions on tunnels and weapons and now all those tunnels are being destroyed. Plenty of people have lost their lives because of the evil thought process of most Palestinians. Sad on all levels

Dear Rebel News, at least please show the complete truth. Do not blame their immigration consultant here to hide the government's lackings. Anyone immigrates after looking at the immigration policies. People spent a fortune to come here, and they changed immigration policies overnight. The protest is actually against this abrupt change in policies.

*The problem is, however, that the paļestìnians DID have their own land since 2005. And what did they do? Fired rockets into Işraęl every single week for nearly TWO DECADES. Instead of using the billions and billions of aid money flowing into gąza to build a rich utopia, they chose to live in squalor and spent the money on tęrrôr tunnels, rockets and rifles. Instead of enjoying the brand new water pipes the United Nations bought and installed for them, they dug them up to make more rockets. **_They literally chose weapons over fresh drinking water for their children._** With such an immense, deep seated hate as that, they will never stop their attacks on their neighboring country.*

Enough is enough. Too much money spent on immigrants and illegal immigrants instead of Canadians born. I am not against immigration but the numbers have increased toooooo much. Anyone who breaks the law should be sent back. Immigrants should not be allowed to come to Canada without being properly vetted. Many European countries are changing their turn as crime, homelessness, etc has increased. They should consider using Russians immigration system. Skilled ????

Why are you guys trying to target hardworking people? does anyone know the kind of benefits refugees get ? No cent has been paid in tax dollars by these people. Their rent is paid for by the government, their children's education is paid for, these guys have no clue about how to communicate in english. Students paid fees to get education here and gave exams to certify the level of english, I worked in Insurance and telecommunications sector and imagine explaining shit to these guys who are not interested in listening to how it actually works then come back and blame service reps for hiding facts. While it is their lack of comprehension of the language which is the actual problem. These people get their immigration status easily while students who arrive here pay thousands in fees and are still considered a problem ? \n\nLack of governance is not something that you can blame on the immigrants, the system has been in place for a while and it was being gamed before too, but the government sleeps at the wheel. In Nova Scotia, there has been unthinkable amount of PRs given to students, who did not go to any of the Atlantic Canada Universities, came here for just gaining PR IN FOOD SERVICE SECTOR and then leave as soon as their cards were in the mailbox, While I spent 9 years here in Nova Scotia and still cannot apply due to such constraints caused by these people who keep moving here from Ontario just because their province would not approve their PR. Who will make the government accountable ?
