Trudeau is a weak leader. He showed he is unable to put his emotions aside long enough to make a rational decision based on what's best for his country and immigrants/refugees. Then he had to back-track, but not until he had caused additional and unnecessary hardship. This shows his lack of maturity which to me, makes him an unfit leader. Leaders need to have the intestinal fortitude to make tough decisions based on projected consequences, even it means his numbers take a temporary dive in the polls. \n\nTrudeau obviously views compassion as a positive trait and it is, but only when balanced by wisdom. Otherwise, it leaves a person open to being reactionary, rather than proactive. Compassion applied unwisely leads to its opposite which is cruelty as was demonstrated as the outcome in this video. If Trudeau was really compassionate he would not have spoken in a way that gave false hope.

Why does he feel entitled to being accepted without doing anything to deserve it? Him not knowing any English is not a good look after 15 years of being in the US. Looks like he put zero effort into assimilating

If he would have took the time to learn how to speak English I think he would have a better chance. You have to put that effort

Canadians don't provide the freebies ugh? I'm glad he lost 15,000 because that proves he would have been able to put a business in his own country. Of course you are rejected duh! Learn some English to say the least.

Why haven’t the police put these people in jail ?????

Very sad,seems like a good guy ,that puts family first.

I think black people all over the world put more emphasis on what other people think about them and less emphasis on just living their lives

Lol, the funniest part about most shoplifters is that they are usually white and the only reason they don't get caught is because no one is watching them or cares if they steal. Even when a worker sees them stealing, they let them get away with it. Smdh. I've seen it many times. One specific time some white guy walked so casually into the beverage aisle at Walmart, put 4 packages of 4 pk Redbull in his backpack, and walked away like nothing happened. Another time, this white guy went to the bulk candy section, loaded up his bag, security SAW HIM and stared at him leaving the store AND DID NOTHING! This white guy I used to work with ALWAYS STOLE HIS LUNCHES and jokingly admitted that he stole cause NO ONE WATCHES HIM OR CARES IF HE DOES! I SEE IT ALL THE TIME! So you little white people watching everyone else, I hope you all lose billions since you love to watch other people and not your own, LMAO!

I’m always scared to get accused of shoplifting, not because I’m black but just because I take ages to look at 1 article. I can stay more then 1 hour in the store. I usually do every aisle even the ones that don’t concern me like the baby section. I just like to see what is new, what is available. \nI live in a country where shoplifting is not really an issue, so I’m used to doing what I want in the shops. I went on holiday in the US and completely forgot that I was not home. I went to target and didn’t take a basket as I was suppose to only buy 1 thing. When I picked up more then 5 articles I put a few in my pocket. It’s only when I got to the cashier that I was like “ I’m crazy this is not my country “. Good thing nothing happened. \nAlso I’m a day dreamer so I always look suspicious in shops.

Yeah if they told me to put my beet down I'd pour it over there head

Where supposed to LOVE & Accept, Muslims that there religion tells them where ever they live, to murder innocent civilians, how dare we, we are so very wrong, we should put our nexks out, for the taking!

Dear everyone,\n\nWe need to love each other and stop tearing each other apart. In my heart, I know humanity is better than this. We need to talk with one another and try to understand each other's perspectives. Please don't divide ourselves. We can make this world a much better place if we learn to put our differences aside and work together. I truly want the best for humanity. Please don't hurt each other. Please come together as one so we may all progress in the future. Everyone makes mistakes, but we can learn from them and move forward. Spread the message of love and peace, not hate and division. Stay safe everyone! ❤

havent even watched the video but i feel like this is the kind of shit you try to upload when you voted the wrong person and are now trying to put other conuntries down to make yours look normal or better lol

These people come here looking for a handout.Taking on these people put a finacial burden on every other Canadien living here.\nThey take away jobs,homes and space.Trudeau gave the false narrative that we are accepting of everyone and now back pedals when his job is at risk with fed up Canadians.These people dont care about our LAWS and culture they care about their own.Throw them all out of Canada.They are making things here worse and not even remotly better for that matter. Trudeau should use his own money insted of mine to gain cheap political points.Trudeau is turning my country into a society of freeloaders looking for a handout.\nLearn from Germanys mistake.Yet this continues to burden the verri

The government needs to put out a arrest warrant for the guy, get him, take him to detention, then deport

It's hard for a native Indian to get a job. I am clean-cut, well dressed and non drinking. I put resumes for a year at every job that came across my path that was a possibility. No one called me back. Most of time they didn't bother to attempt a serious interview. Finally got a job with native organization which I didn't go to school for. I am certified in Office Admin. but cook and clean house.

Trudeu has done what Merkel did. Saying one thing for show, making people believe that they can go, then once the people get there, it's shown that thse words where just hot air. Merkel even backed everyone up in Hungary (see the Eastern Railway incident) and put the blame on the Eastern European countries for not being humane. ?\nCanada's darling dear did the same thing here and everyday people hoping for a new life get the sharp end of the deal. \nI don't see why this moma's boy is so idealised. He's just spouting popular rot, then backing out. A nation leader should take care what he/she says, otherwise you're just another style of Trump to me.

Its sad that this family has to suffer but immigration laws were put into place for a reason. This guy was taken by lawyers for $15000 which is his life savings. The only reason he and his family went to Canada is due to Canada's leader welcoming all immigrants with open arms. Canada's leader only said that to make Trump look like a ass. Well now how looks like an ass?

The Babies of Native Indians are Souls in Heaven and come and visit their bones to see if its time to resurrect as I was there with a baby bone pile north of the Kortright Conservation Area with Ontario Heritage Foundation as David Donnelly was really upset that there were OS's aries found that the Italian builder was going to build on and so he called our office and yelled at the top of his lungs to issue a Stop Work Order Immediately. They got through to the Top Brass and We did issue it from our Office as Government Staff and then we visited and I found as the Holy Grail of Christ Second Coming the Baby Bones in Piles and I picked one up in my hand and the Soul of the Baby came to visit it and smiled as very innocent still waiting to resurrect and it went went back to heaven and I put the bone back in the baby bone pile. The cover up by the Italians of Maasacres by War Criminals who are Italian is by builders to build over the bone piles hence the Poltergeist that is there to haunt a those who are Italian living in subdivisions over the Dead Indians that were killed by the Italians. And that happened on Halloween by God to send out the Poltergeist to haunt and kill the Italians throughout Vaughan on Halloween on Judgement Day 2017.

Justin was just after the publicity. Wanted to be a pretty boy. This is whay happens when you put someone who doesn't know actual law in charge of a country.

He's illegally in the US and never learns to speak English then goes to Canada and doesn't speak English or French? He hasn't put forth much effort to assimilate. Try coming through Ellis Island in the late 1800s and early 1900s and not knowing English. You're an evil racist if you say these things but it's the truth. If you want to move out of your country you learn the Language and assimilate. The problem with the immigrants from Central America is they want to live in our country but continue to live life as they did there. Assimilate or leave.

If he just went through the proper channels in the US he wouldn’t be having these issues in Canada. Now he’s an undocumented and illegal worker in Canada and is taking advantage of the system. Canada does have stricter immigration laws than the States. I’m all fine with Canada accepting immigrants as long as they do it the legal way and go through the due process that the government has put in place. But this guy has pretty much screwed himself over and is taking advantage of the Canadian citizens I feel

growing up in canada, i felt left out in the blk community b/c i am a 5th generation blk cdn on mom's side and 3rd on my dad's - when other black ppl not canadian born met me - i tell them i'm cdn, but i always used to get the question - where are you really from - they were looking for me to say the islands - when i told them my paternal grandma was born in 1901 in canada - that's when the questions stopped. i've been told that b/c i wasn't from the islands, i had no culture in college, but a mbr of the black student society put him in his place i heard he got into a lot of trouble. i was asked what do we eat as in food as canadians what kind of music do we listen to - at our blk canadian weddings, the only carribean song played was hot hot hot by arrow - we played straight up r and b and motown. i hv been rejected by other blk men b/c i'm not west indian enough...it was hurtful. even with 'friends' they made of my cdn heritage but i used to think, why are you making fun of me knowing that my family and ancestors were in canada first - they were 1st generation - i live in the usa now and i'm with an african american man - he has never treated me as if i were different and he loves going w/me to canada. my parents told me it was jealousy on those ppl's parts - one guy i used to be friends with in college, when i went to his house, his mom was from the islands, when she met me - she said, 'you cdn ppl are loud' and that did it for me - i didn't date her son but when he met my parents, they never said any of that crap to him. in the usa, the african americans don't treat differently at all - my ex mom in law thought we were american but decided to live in canada - b/c she was surprised that blacks do live in canada. her other daughter in law's family were from the islands - but she gravitated more to my family and felt comfortable around them more than her family and this ex sis in law would brag about the islands this and that and she would make comments about my looks being skinny and such but it was jealousy - i didn't care much for her b/c she was very insecure. i felt once again, i was a young girl in college again - being around island ppl....i would love to meet drake and ask him did he feel left out and isolated because he wasn't from the islands - he makes me very proud being a blk canadian - his dad is african american and his mom is jewish. i still hv dealt w/racism not much with wht ppl, but with my own ppl - which is quite sad and on top of it-colorism, that also played a part from my family - being called pygmy, chocolate dip, nappy hair - it hurt but these so called relatives, they aren't all that anymore, they had hard lives as children...when ppl see something in you that is special and they don't have, that's when their ugliness shows -

So, they illegally immigrated to the US, and when the US got strict on illegal immigrants, you illegally immigrated to Canada? I'd put them on the first plane back to where they came from, and deny them any possibility of every coming back.\n\nYou want to come to Canada? Start by showing us the respect of following our laws.

He illegally enters the U.S., doesn't seem to understand why ICE wants to deport him.  So he illegally enters Canada and doesn't seem to understand why they want to deport him.  So instead he plays the system by moving about to get his case 'put to the bottom of the pile' to cheat yet MORE time to stay in Canada illegally.  Then when he gets told 'NO', he changes up and says he no longer in any danger of returning but now it's humanitarian.  Time to pack up and move back to El Salvador and turn your home country into what you want it to be.

I can’t stand Trudeau!!!! He brings out the worst in me!!! I would love for him to be put in a boxing ring...he needs to be pounded on for what he’s doing. \nThese are the people we need to help P.M!!!\nEnough with your B.S and family vacations!!!

it doesn't matter where he is from what matters is that he put his family through all of this because he dodnt want to do the legal process. i come from immigrants and they did the process (not cutting corners) and they were welcomed citizens and still are. some illegal immigrants dont care for their families or they would have started the process a long time ago.

Ok now put this white guy in the middle of Kingston Jamaica and see what happens.

Their head dress and berkas are drawing attention to these people because of their cultures and what it means to women. These things put people in bondage and seem very threatening. They are forced to ware them in their own country’s and they come here and some are demanding that our culture should adapt. Especially in Europe.These people represent problems etc.. I am scared of these people. I’m free. I don’t want to bow to their God or their culture. Like I said try this test in their own country’s. I have no problem with blacks or aboriginal people. I realize there are radicals too. The Muslim people try to show a superior attitude and think they are right and want to force their culture on other countries. I don’t trust any of them.

this guy ain't black,, he's a jewish liar, priveledged kid who was into entertainment at a young age. he never worked one day in his life,, and has no clue what reality is. i'd love to see this maggot put on a tool belt and go outside for a day.

These people just really want to work but I can honestly say that maybe God is working in their favor because this country is going down and God is going to do it , so maybe it's a blessing in disguise , and to the Caucasian how are you gonna get upset at people for doing the same thing you did, why because you write on your Constitution I didn't know you were God, God didn't put you here either... I'm just saying and good has a way of bringing everyone in to submission and really let you know your place.. America Canada Australia none of it is your Land.. You killed millions of people to take that land and your sin's have piled all the way up to the heavens..

Canadians, especially the younger generation, are becoming wayyy more conservative then ive ever witnessed before. You can see it in the comments. I love it. Trudeau the dicklick needs to go. His PC brand of politics have seriously put Canadians in danger.

There are just as many white haters as black haters. Both sides need an attitude adjustment. Yes slavery happened but illegal now .So what's next? So why do you need to teach children not to forget you came from slavery? If you keep looking to your past history how can you look to the future? Look forward to what you can do to better yourself? Why is s much weight put o n your horrible past. Get on with life.

Stephen Harper was not afraid to speak the truth and put the daggers of Canadians above political correctness. Miss him.

Obamacare man... Putting people in debt since 2009....

It's going to get worse if we don't put our foot down and say NO!

we are not children why do people put something into everything we say......If you say something and anyone takes it as prejudice that does not mean you are prejudiced against anyone......we all have our quirks and the people that claim all of this usually take everything and analzye it ....instead of taking what is being said as just a comment.....there have been things said that I did not like but I do not say anything because everyone is entitled to their own opinions.......

I agree that racism exists in Canada in a subtle form. In my experience people would have more discrimination towards minority with foreign accents. I have heard from other people commenting immigrants 'this person has accent' and to me, it can be perceived negatively. Sometimes I feel I am treated differently because I have accent, especially at working environment. Few years ago I worked in school and my white boss put this on my yearly performance: Your 'emerging' English skills can have negative impact to children's language development. I didn't tell this to anyone but was very disappointed as we are a diversified country with so many immigrants, and this should not come out from an educator's mouth.

Our Crimeminister has passed M-103.............I will say what I want and you can put me in jail.........THIS WILL ONLY MAKE IT WORSE

So men can wear balaclava's anywhere in public, I wonder how safe women would feel if a group of men walked towards them in the street with a face covering, the reason is the public knows a face covering allows the wearer to act with some impunity, as facial recognition software and camera surveillance is rendered useless, witness identification and testimony is also useless, this puts people on edge.

Say Goodbye To your rights & your Freedoms & your Girls 7 & up ,women dont do as your told they brat the f*** outta ya\nor dig a hole in the ground , put u in it & stone u to death.....******Welcome to Sharia Law

we should put an end to it stop make war in the middle east and send them back in their country unless they embrace our value

I live in Maine and the small Inns came to this state so many so quick that they're now they drained the social system welfare food housing new cars all on the taxpayers dime they never put into the system they never paid their dues or worked now they're going to Canada from Maine so get ready they dreamed aren't you help somehow they're moving on to the next

Races are all mixing up almost in every country. This is good but there is a cost. Loss of sovereignty and identity. People that are OK with that, then there is no problem. Foreign names on resumes do get less calls. In the U.S., hispanic names puts you in the bottom of the pile.

They just wear that shit because it's easier than putting on makeup and doing their hair. They're lazy, just like their men.

Aren't you just sick and fucking tired of all this stuff. No-one else on earth causes this much fuss. No-one else threatens the planet like these shits. Let's put a end to it once and for all.

It's kind of like putting a bag over a woman's head and wow some of those woman are butt-ugly. Wow and their profit is a pedophile that's fucking vile!

poor islam.... muslims says western education is foolish but look around, they are fighting to be in the western countries but not saudi arabia and also fighting to attend western education, this is funny.... muslims are putting fear into people to convert to their religion, well u can never scare me.... A big SHAME to islam

why are white people acting like sharia law is the worst set of laws they ever heard of lol have they forgotten black codes have they forgotten Jim Crow, apartheid the real reason they are upset is because they want to be the only race to be able to treat other people like shit sharia law don't got shit on nor will ever have a body count as high as some of the laws made by white people period I can't believe all this bitch in is coming from the race that put Jesus Christ on the cross and happily blamed the Jews for it sure the Jews played their part but it was the Romans who killed him so for all these white people acting like Muslims are just the worst type of human look in the fucking mirror ok

Put cameras to the store and no one feels profiled. Problem with racial profiling solved.
