Canadian properties also sold to ghost immigrants driving property prices thru the roof in vancouver and Toronto and other cities.

Some encouraging news.\nThe Canadian Supreme Court just recently ruled the “safe third country agreement” with the U.S. violates the Canadian charter of rights and freedoms. The Canadian government has six months to dissolve the agreement or appeal, which is unlikely with the current Trudeau administration, and the current Republican Party immigration hardliners in power in Washington.

Canada is one of the worst places to immigrate to. I’m Canadian. I know what it’s like to live here. Plus I’m indigenous. So I’ve face racism and prejudice. Many think my people gets free handouts. From my experience that’s far from the truth. I’ve left my community for a better education. I was completely alone without parents and my siblings, living with an aunt that used me for another pay check. I couldn’t go to college because I couldn’t afford it, even tho I got accepted into three colleges. Now I’m working a part-time job that forces me to stand on my feet all day. Not many job opportunities are out here unless you’ve gone to college or obtain training. plus the rate for rent is horrendous.

To me, it looks like Vice is really trying to pull the emotional card to get people to sympathize with this man because he really is in a rough situation. But, he is in a situation of his own making. It sounds like he had not done any prior research about Canada before deciding to claim refugess status. Yes, Trudeau was not giving the full truth when he made those public announcements to the media. Yes, people (educated or not) can be swayed by words of leaders they respect. But, to think you can just enter another country and claim refugee status without understanding what that actually entails is very naive. Canada has very transparent laws that are easily accessable in a multitude of different languages. The provinces also have legal assistance for those who can not afford lawyers. So, the fact that this man was able to spent $15,000 when he is being portrayed as a low income earner makes me question his income, or if he was even aware that he could apply for legal assistance. And since he has a lawyer who has been working his case, I would like to assume that the lawyer would have said something about assistance.\n\nI really want to be sympathetic for this man and his family, because security uncertainty makes life extra hard. But, as I have had to live in more than one country due to the Canadian immigration system refusing my husband due to a very old DUI (which has set our life on a completely different plan than anticipated), I have a very hard time being sympathetic when I feel as though they did not reach out to educated themselves on the laws of another country. I am a Canadian who currently can't live in Canada with my husband of 3 years and I still don't hate my country. I respect the hell out of it (this is not to get into our historic treatment of BIPOC, which deserves it's own seperate time and is a bloody stain on our land's history.)

The Canadian government gives ppl false hope...cause the more immigrants pay lawyers to richer the queen becomes...most illegal immigrants from south America are starting to save their money an move to other South American countries

Who in Canada can honestly say their families did not immigrate to Canada . Where did all Canadians come from?????

Most of you guys are something: Canada LIVES of immigrant work force. All of You are just that, immigrants, from an immigrant family!! And yet you are so full of hate. In the country of This size there should be 10 times as many people living. But Canadians protect their comfort, their convenience( favorite word), they don't want to share.\nAnd yet you market yourself as a country open to immigrants, welcoming, nice....it is all a fasade .....

It’s usually the Eastern European immigrants that are very obvious with racism in Canada. The Anglo Canadians are more subtle especially with high paying jobs.

As a Canadian we are more open to immigtation . There are still laws. I myself am an immigrant. This piece shows one story out of thousands yearly. Without knowing specific details it is tough to judge. I know and have met quite a few refugees that have gained legal status within the past few years. We are not perfect by any means but the government does a good job, in my opinion. There must still be a vetting process. I hope this family has found stability

Hi igor i received an agreement letter from canadian immigration so how will i know its legit ....then the letter says that i apply for visa myself but ticket they will send me so how will its legit thanks kindly assist Bro.

the most racist part of Canada is Media and education. you don't see 1 minute a week a program for immigrants or even native Indians on any radio or TV of 99% of Canadian cities.\nonly recently in Toronto there is this kind of program.

Hoping that a Canadian can help me here ??\n\nDoes anyone know of a good immigration consultant I could speak too? I plan on moving to Canada, but I have no idea where to start or what I qualify for ?

Many immigrants came to a white country. They should integrate, become Canadians, respect its culture and language. If this is not what they want, it would be better for them to return where they came from. They should not create problems for themselves and Canada. This is fair for everyone.

In the 21st century, many Canadians are also quite against Christians, though this is the basis for the underlying principles of kindness, goodness, and love that has made the Western World so attractive to many peoples around the world, and has made Canada a haven for many. This is quite a shame on Canada. While loving and blessing others, Canada should NEVER forget her own (Natives and Christians); neither should she forget her good foundations that has made her peaceful, wealthy, and stress free over the centuries. I have had to rescue a white co-worker one time, because she was ill treated by immigrants in the workplace, who thought she was not SMART enough and FAST enough for their purpose. This is a beautiful, gentile white lady, whose parents helped to build Canada. Shame on Canada. It is good to bless others, but at what cost? Selling out your good foundations? Forgetting your own peoples who do not have degrees like others. Shame on Canada for allowing these actions. Canada, rebuild your good foundations.

The unspoken assumption seems to be that racism is a white problem. Yet across the years I have listened to Black and Chinese people express opinions which, coming from a white person, would have meant a day in court charged with the willful promotion of hatred.\n\nFurthermore, the young woman who has difficulty with people asking where she is from might want to consider the possibility that the other party is genuinely interested in learning more about her as a person. I am a white British-Canadian and am not in the least little bit offended when people ask me about my origins.\n\nIndeed, listening to immigrants and new Canadians share their life experiences and outlooks on things has gone a long way in shaping my own opinions as to how Canada can be a better country than it is now.\n\nCase in point; I have heard immigrants and new Canadians from nations as diverse as Jamaica, Trinidad, Nigeria, Ukraine, and the Philippines compare childrens' education in Canada with children's education in their countries of origin. Guess which looks better. Hint, hint, it isn't Canada.\n\nFolks, we need to be listening.

He should have been sent back to China \nit is obvious that he still practice illegal immigration \nCanadians are loosing day by day our Canadian culture over immigration, and soon will be Asian from it's base

Canadian laws in immigration fking suck and thats putting it lightly. Come to canada and pretend ur poor if you wan live like a king. You wan live like a bum slave, come find a job and start paying taxes.

I personally know one of the fake Bangladeshi Canadian immigration attorney ( so called Barrister), he’s commenting human trafficking from USA to Canada his name is Delowar Hossain. His cell#437-220-1502, he’s taking illegal people from N Y state entering them in the Canada ?? and taking $20k-30k. Please catch him,

I’m tired of people Defending refugees and immigrants they only come to this country for the free welfare cheque’s and the free family alowance cheque’s That’s why you see them with 15 different kids behind them more kids the more money there actually laughing at our government Makes me sick with this country is becoming we’re putting the immigrants and refugees before Canadians

Funny how ironic it is that Americans and Canadians talk about coming over here..haaa that's how modern America and Canada was founded..out of British and Eurooean immigrants. Also to be honest you had English language but changed that.

Oh com’on, as much as I support immigrants and refugee, calling the Canadian system bad is just wrong, especially compared with America

It’s Canadian Immigration problem , they should not allow lax immigration policy in the first place.

too late .....i knew a guy immigrated to Canada in 2002 his wife and kid lived in Ottawa and he never lived there ,,,,,he has granted Canadian nationality in 2006 , when i asked him how he has done it he told me you can play with the law, many has Canadian nationality and never lived in Canada ....good luck Canada

But hundreds of aliens defrauding Canadian immigration without the complicity of honest and sincere insiders? Or in Crude 3rd world language is there corruption in Canadian immigrstion?

Eliminate duel citizenship and this problem will go away. If you want to immigrate to Canada you must relinquish any previous citizenship. That would eliminate the possibility of these people moving back to China which means they wouldn't move here in the first place unless they were serious about being Canadian citizens and not just doing it for profit and access to Canadian real estate, social programs and future pensions for family.

Canada didn’t invent ice hockey, it was invented in Scotland and brought over to North America by Scottish immigrants as Shinty (a traditional Scottish form of hockey) on Ice hence the Canadian term ‘Shinnie’.

Most of these Ninja dressed folks are the extremist end of Muslims.\n\n\nThe average Muslim immigrant (Atleast from Indian Subcontinent) works hard, goes through all the loops of legal immigration and even works to put in effort to adjusting to Canadian Culture. From my (Personal Perspective) all legal immigrants should make 100% effort to learning the countries culture they immigrate to its the least we can give in return as immigrants and also work towards contributing towards Canada's economy instead of leeching it. There are certain crazy extremes but the average Muslim works towards his / her bread & butter to live another day.

What more do you want from Trudeau? Despite the funds to Canadians, businesses and so on? You are just hateful, don't forget your forefathers were once immigrants

Canadians can come in, but will be quarantined, Trudeau didn't block canadians or PR holders, stop spreading lies and hate, those are asylum seekers not illegal immigrants. We love Trudeau, we love Canada

In Justin's world, ILLEGAL immigrants are essential traffic. Justin, it is time to stop your virtue signalling. You are putting Canadian lives at risk by continuing to try to stack the deck for future votes. Shut down Roxham road

No Tresspassing for Canadians but it's OK for ILLEGAL immigrants to tresspass

JUSTINE NEEDS THE VOTE'S THAT'S WHY HE'S LETTING IN ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS PLUS TOO FINANCIALLY BREAK CANADA BY GIVING 20 YEAR GOLD CARD MEDICARE EVERYTHING IS PAID BY CANADIAN TAXPAYERS ### MAKE CANADA GREAT AGAIN GET RID OF JUSTINE TRUDEAU SHOULD BE HELD FOR TREASON AND HAS NO CLUE HOW TO RUN CANADA

This is very scary! Unfortunately, we cannot close the border as essential food and medical supplies come from the US to fill our grocery stores and pharmacies! I AGREE that it is NOT RIGHT to let immigrants to cross the borders freely right now as the Prime Minster has said that only Canadians, permanent residents and diplomats are only allowed to return.

Well I guess if one of the Canadian police or somebody like that catch the virus from the immigrants that are coming in they can blame the Prime Minister

Maybe Canada, or a private citizen/group, should sue Clinton County of New York State for creating a health hazard for Canadians by allowing illegal immigrants to travel to the illegal border crossing. It might seem petty but it just might prompt some type of reaction.

The Canadian government has a Youtube Immigration Channel. I sub to it just to watch and see what kind of content they are putting on there. Today's video is about the borders being closed, I asked in the comment section about Roxham Road if it is open and are they scanning for viruses and vetting. Click on the link and see their answer... I use a VPN and set it to Los Angeles so they wouldn't know I was in Canada.\nhttps://youtu.be/qEOa4q_81A0 \nGood god, we are all in trouble, this fiasco needs to be shut down immediately.

OK, Trudeau is a totally useless child and idiot. Aside from that though, why are the opposition party's not bringing this up? WHy are they staying silent about it? Because if they are talking about it I haven't heard anything.\nAnother question, it is in Quebec. So why is the Quebec provincial government allowing this? What the hell is going on exactly?\nWe have Trudeau saying the RCMP doesn't take orders from the government, yet they are allowing this to happen. It is completely illegal, unfair to immigrants using the proper channels, unfair to Canadian citizens as we are the ones footing the bill for all this nonsense, and now it is dangerous. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON IN CANADA???

*As a minority born and raised in Vancouver I bought my own home by not wasting time complaining about the government regardless of which party is in power.* *I’m the store manager of the largest Canadian owned grocery store.* *Many Immigrants come to Canada and in 5-7 years after working are able to buy a home.* *Yet Canadian born white people can’t afford to buy a home because they spend all their time complaining about the government.*

why not US adopt Canadian Immigration system? Everyone wants to follow Canadian Healthcare system.

The more this M103 government destroys our immigration system Canadians are going to speak the truth.

Want to Eliminate Racism ? Educate Settlers/ White Canadians & Immigrants. Canadians have no idea about Residential schools, Smallpox Epidemic, Hudson Bay Traders Violations against Aboriginal peoples.

While I am daily trying to pass the English test to be eligible for getting Canadian PR, these people just pay money and get PR easily. Even I knew a lot of foreign students are paying money for faked marriage to become Canadian citizen, what a shame on that. I can afford that money but I never want to break the rule. Please prove that Canada government has created fair and equal immigration system for all people.

The Canadian people dont want immagrants living here. They are not welcome!!! Pei is full of immigrants. Its so sad. I feel like im living in a foreign country. Why cant the government see whats happening. The people living among them notice how awful immagrants truly are. They are rude and they are taking their religion and beliefs with them. Its scary. They have no respect. The people are tired of immigrants. We are taling a stand. If you are a immagrants. Stay away!!!!!! Not welcome and never will be. Wake up government. You want them living here then come live with them because we dont want to anymore!!! Stay away.

This sunny guy has con so many of his own China people and ask them to say lies. The lady also thinks the Canadian law is stupid say she is victim. This sunny guy ask her to lie she also follow and lie to immigration so she deserve no mercy either.

Go away. The true Canadian people are starting to hate immigrants. We dont want you here. Stay away!

Having experience with Canadian travel by car and commercial truck as a Alaskan resi. I assure ALL that it is set up solely on Revenue trap! Canadians are awesome polite and respectable people, but the Government SUCKS!!! (Think British Queenie Worshiping Commie Prick Gov. NEEDS THEIR ASS KICKED) Past time to BOW-UP Ca-nooks, ya pussed out and gave up your GUNS. Are Ya Men or Mouse EHH! Illegal Immigrants Suck, Most countries wont put up with invasion pushed by commies. Except for political BS Democrat's!

Sorry for asking but I don't exactly get the point , I mean what was the benefit to the immigrants.. ? If they wanted Canadian Residency then why not stay in Canada and if they want to stay back home then why need Canadian Residency??? ?
