Yes, Canada’s asylum system is currently facing intense scrutiny due to record-high claim volumes and allegations of systemic fraud. THE SCALE OF THE PROBLEM Backlog Explosion: The inventory of pending asylum claims has surged significantly, reaching approximately 300,000 active cases as of late 2025. Rising Claim Volumes: Annual claims reached a record 190,000 in 2024, though they decreased by about a third in early 2025 following new policy measures. Removal Gap: Criticisms have been raised regarding the low rate of deportations; reports indicate that 86% of rejected claimants remain in Canada. SOURCES OF "BOGUS" CLAIMS International Student Surge: There has been an "alarming trend" of international students claiming asylum to remain in the country after their study permits expire or in response to new caps on student visas. Fraud Networks: Investigations have highlighted vulnerabilities where unauthorized agents and transnational fraud networks counsel migrants to submit fabricated narratives or forged documents. "Rubber-Stamping" Allegations: A recent report by the C.D. Howe Institute warned that a paper-based "fast-track" system for certain high-risk countries may be bypassing essential security screenings and in-person questioning. ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL IMPACT Healthcare Costs: The Interim Federal Health Program (IFHP), which provides medical benefits to claimants, saw its budget jump from roughly $66 million to over $1 billion annually. Policy Shift: To reduce incentives for non-genuine claims, the government is introducing a co-pay system for supplementary health services (like dental and vision) starting May 1, 2026. CONSEQUENCES OF FRAUD For individuals, filing a "bogus" or misrepresented claim carries severe penalties: A five-year ban from entering or remaining in Canada. Permanent record of fraud with Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). Loss of current temporary or permanent resident status

If the country feel migrants as threat for them they need to band citizenship of the countr y and start to deport the illegal immigrants but the administration have no wisdom to resolve the issues

I'm not against migrants, I'm against criminals. If a person has come to a country and adheres to the laws and traditions of that country. And if you came to commit a crime, then deportation is the right decision. That's why I want to say that we are all human beings.

Deport migrants.

So what it's costing taxpayers...what do you think gov't support of border hopping migrants, immigrants, and south asian business owners abusing the temp foreign worker program and milking it is doing...it's costing taxpayers a lot more than these deportations. Let's ramp up the deportations, let's ramp up stripping citizenship from new canadians convicted of federal crimes....

More Americans are fleeing the U.S. than ever before. This is going to lead to an uptick in deportations since it most likely lead to an uptick in illegal migrants, ergo, an uptick in deportations.

Good!! Deport more. Anyone overstaying a visa, any fake refugees, get them all out. Send them back to fix their own countries, not drag those problems here. Failed refugee claimant = economic migrant. Get them out! edit: They can have deportations delayed because they might need medical services their country of origin can't provide? F that! Thats medical tourism and we are paying for it. Deport, deport, deport.

There are two parts to this story and it's truth. There are people that came to Canada for a true life but there are many more that came to Canada because there is a system. Most people don't even know, unless you listen to the many that are in shelters and on social media, most have been told that Canada is a country which will pay you and cover all your housing. There is a code of silence which does not always come from inside Canada. It's the code on how to take advantage of a countries blindness by abusing it's Government financial Immigration and Refugee programs. 1. Make a claim, any claim as it will take years before Canada figures out your claim is false. If all does not go well, have a baby on the land. This way you can't be deported and the Canadian government will give you more money because you have a child. There are many more but I will not write them to place them into the open world but there are many more tactics of abuse, Student Visa is but one of them, the next is Migrants. If you are not near the system but you listen closely to the stories, you will hear the real truth and you will also hear the underground truth which people speak about behind closed doors.

I found it telling that Michelle confidently quoted the wrong number (79,000) and, when Aiesha corrected her with the accurate figure (47,000), she immediately switched gears to “Where are they?” rather than owning the mistake. That dodge makes me question her judgment. It feels like she’s leaning into fear‑mongering language that easily panics people who aren’t paying attention to nuance — which, sadly, describes most of this comment section. Also, did you see the reply to the Filipino student who voiced frustration? “You guys make up some of the most cleanest restaurants I’ve ever been to.” That kind of response speaks to a lack of respect for international students. To many in the Canadian workforce, international students and migrants are treated as disposable labor — steered toward low‑ and middle‑income jobs. Yes, fraud should be dealt with, but it’s lazy and unfair to claim that all Indians or international students come here through fraud. If that logic ruled, we’d have to start deporting every non‑Indigenous person — which ignores the whole reality of colonization.

New migrants need to be deported. At least 75% need to go. Earlier immigrants respected our culture and customs. These new migrants don’t

They “the government “ does this on purpose to create a crisis. Rather than spend the money on border agents which would help control this issue as well as the flow of illegal firearms, they let in unvetted, undocumented migrants to cause backlash from you and I, basically opening the door for them to correct it by implementing a digital ID. This is nothing new, all the WEF puppets world wide are pulling the same strings. Enough is enough! It’s time to take our countries back with mass deportations. Get the military involved and do whatever it takes to get these low quality migrants out of our country

When you let 800,000 ECONOMIC MIGRANTS enter Canada in 6 months its a recipe for disaster. There is no way EVERYONE was properly checked. Just look at the mess we have. Time to DEPORT

Canada has its Biden . Lets Everyone into the country . Its not about if they are nice or not ... They need DEPORTATIONS, we donot care if even if they speak english , get out of canada , with corrupt Canadian government .This video is made by an imigrant he needs to go also . TRUMP DOES NOT CARE IF MIGRANTS TAKE JOBS , START A BUSINESS, OR SELL DRUGS , HE IS DEPORTING ALL OF THEM . Healing his land ,and canada , while the corrupt Canadian government pays companies to hire migrants over citizens.... IT IS EVIL TO FLOOD CANADA WITH MIGRANTS . IN 2026 the end of it , migrants will out number citizens Stats canada says themselves .

Most illegal migrants spend thousands of dollars to commit the crime (entering any sovereign country illegally is simply an invasion). If they dare to enter China or any of the Arab countries this way, then who knows, they would be in heaven or hell rather than back home. All the deportees should be arrested on reaching back home for invading a foreign sovereign country and tarnishing the images of hundreds of millions of citizens of their countries who enter the USA or any other developed democratic country to study at the best of the universities, and after completion of the courses, they are not only provided the best of the jobs but also citizenship or other legal status to stay put in the countries. But these people reach their desired destination after going through rigorous educational and other processes and after a thorough background check. But in the matter of illegal immigrants, how are the victimized countries supposed to know their backgrounds? How can one be sure if they are not hardcore criminals, terrorists, spies, or even trained soldiers of enemy countries? In such uncertainty, how can the invaded countries be sure that an incident or incidents of such a large magnitude might not take place that, in comparison, the incident of 9/11 would look like the small incident of bursting firecrackers?But on one election promise, the president is, unfortunately, taking a complete U-turn that those students who do the master's and other higher studies should be retained and provided legal status to stay in the country as their contributions are needed to give the country the perpetual cutting edge in the highly competitive world and keep the country's status as number one. These scholars are feeling cheated that by spending huge amounts of money and contributing to the research and development during the studies, they have not only been taken for a ride but also become the main target of the deportation campaign as their status is available with the government. On the other hand, millions of undocumented workers are comparatively safe, as tracing and deporting them is not an easily achievable task. Besides, millions of foreign citizens are given entry into the country on flimsy grounds, and many of them do not even ever go to elementary school. I think even God would not be able to make out what the fuck this country has become on this issue. Almost the same is the situation with most of the EU countries, the UK, Australia, and Canada.

What I cannot understand why are the Indians targeted ? What about the rest of the illegal migrants ? How do they get to stay and get paid ? I don’t agree to any particular nationality they should all be deported and still they want to bring more illegal migrants ???

Wow, this guy is very intelligent, he puts some clips he loaded from news or the Internet and unloaded them here to bait the people. They are coming by the thousands but the video shows only a few people. First thing is, people crossing into the USA, it's not upto canada to stop them. If somone enters canada from the USA then its upto canada to stop them from entering, not the USA. If sombody crosses into USA then it's upto USA to block them..\n\nMost of the content in this video is false. People are always trying to cross into other countries illegally, but it's upto the other countries border security to stop them and send them back..\n\nWhat a lie about the bus waiting for these people at the crossing points. LoL...sure sure..\n\nIce is nothing but a reality show, very little reality but it's entertaining to watch because people think it's real. Lol...\n\nTrump used cheap labor to built his Empire. do you guys think he hired Americans to built his luxury hotels, casinos, towers etc? Heck no, he used these very same migrants he claims to be taking your jobs away from you. Guy soreads lies and speaks from both sides of his mouth. Think about it. If you have a business, are you going to hire expansive labor or cheap labour? If you wanna make BIG profits then you knkw who you'd be hiring. Face it. Migrants will do jobs that no one wants and they'll do it for a lot less. \n\nI got a roof put on my House for less then half of what i was quoted. Thanks to the hard working migrants. Take it to the bank, ICE is not created to deport big numbers of migrants back, its created to make it look that way. How would you know how many people they deported, oh yeah, becasue the orange men is going to brag about it and you'll fall for it. Much like this video.

Make Canada pay to deport them. Also make the illegal migrant criminal pay for their own removal or go to Jail until family members in home country comes up with the money. No more asylum, otherwise the entire world will try and get in.

If you're virtue-signaling anti-ICE tweets from your safe upscale gated community between your Pilates class and your afternoon lattes with 'the girls', or you're having an anti-ICE meltdown in your campus dorm between your critical race theory class and your gender equity workshop with the 'they-thems', then you're probably not living with the harsh reality of your family's urban neighborhood being ravaged by gang violence. I can't comprehend someone being against the deportation of dangerous migrants with criminal convictions, but the opposition often seems to come from those who never had to view the destruction firsthand.

This is my biggest complaint of the new administration. They are really dragging their feet with deportations. There’s no reason they haven’t removed at least a million illegal migrants by now. I understand blue states and cities are causing issues, but states like Ohio, Texas, Florida… shouldn’t have to continue to deal with this. Forget Chicago and NYC for now, save places like Springfield, OH.

37,660 migrants had been deported in Trump's first month, putting the new administration behind Biden's monthly average of 57,000.

The USA brings in one MILLION LEGAL immigrants a year for the past 30 years!!! We have far too many immigrants here to begin with. We absolutely can not take in anymore or we will risk losing our entire culture. There wont be a USA if 20 million migrants aren’t deported and we need to stop ALL immigration for at least 10 years.

When TRUDEAU goes along with his entire incompetent woke Liberal party, guaranteed these number will drop dramatically on both sides, just like they have now Biden is out.\nCONTEXT: Canada population: 41 million --- US population: 340 million\n\nStatistics source: Canada-Gov irregular migrants webpage, (rounded) data represents ONLY illegal migrants that crossed FROM USA TO CANADA last two years (that they KNOW OF):\n2023 = 162,000\n2024 = 130,000\nTRUDEAU encouraged this by allowing them ALL to stay that POS\n\nStatistics straight from USCBP-GOV-STATS-nationwide-encounters web page (rounded) stats of ONLY illegal migrants that crossed FROM CANADA TO USA last two years (that they KNOW OF):\n2023 = 189,000\n2024 = 198,000\nBIDEN encouraged this by allowing them ALL to stay that POS\n\nNow look my fellow Americans, WE ARE NOT VICTIMS of CANADA. You KNOW we're not. STOP PLAYING VICTIM, it's grossly unmanly. We cannot hold Canada solely responsible for those ENTERING the USA illegally FROM Canada, without also taking likewise responsibility for STOPPING folks from illegally ENTERING CANADA from USA side. WE MUST BOTH STOP AND DEPORT THEM ALL. We'll BOTH be far more successful if we coordinate and cooperate towards the same mutual goal: TO DEFEND OUR OWN DAMN BORDERS AND STOP POINTING FINGERS LIKE WHINY LITTLE BABIES. WE ARE ALL UNDER ATTACK BY THE SAME ENEMIES. LET'S ACT LIKE IT.

A rule should be pass, that ELEGAL migrant that get cough returning after being deported, should not bye deported again but through in prison instead and if he/she has criminal charges for robbery, DUI, rape, etc. then send them to Wantanamo or CEPAC in El Salvador, that for sure would deter them from trying again.

Thousand of illegal migrants from NY sanctions city are dropped off by busses at the border and then walked over into Canada. When the US will stop this? Asylum seeker should be applied for asylum in US as per safe country agreement between US and Canada. If not qualified for asylum then they should be deported from US and not allowed entry into Canada.

Wouldn't the fact that the city council, allocated that money AFTER the ice raids took place. Pretty much in response to them, as an emergency to basically help hide the migrants, wouldn't that make them complicit in aiding and abetting or harboring a fugitive? I heard something about the way Miss AOC has been going online producing videos, instructing people how to avoid/escape ICE agents, was pushing the limits on the law. That she might get in trouble for it. Then surely the city council, knowingly providing this money for the purpose of helping migrants, NOT GET DEPORTED, really needs to be looked into. Taxing the American's living in NY out the *ss, just to spend that tax money on stuff the citizens, DONT WANT THEM spending it on. I think the act of handing over $2 million dollars, just to help hide the illegal immigrants, while at the same time raising taxes for the actual legal citizens who are NOT benefiting AT ALL, from all this money being spent when, THEY ARE THE ONES WHO ARE ACTUALLY PAYING IT IN, should definitely be crossing the line....

? first of all get it right mayor Adams is a criminal and he embezzled a lot of money from New York I grew up in the Upper East Side in New York okay and I used to like him until he was caught and and plenty of proof it's not about him doing anything about the migrants it's the fact that he changed his tune all the sudden when he's caught and Trump is willing to drop the cases as long as he goes with the flow and does with Trump says but if he doesn't he's legally allowed to bring the case back up that's why they have the case in court and the Seven judges resign because they refuse to drop a case a new was being dropped for political reasons not because he wasn't guilty and the fact that Trump had in writing that he could bring the charges back up there's only one thing that can mean if he doesn't go with the flow and be a good little soldier and doesn't do exactly what the orange buffoon tells them they can bring the charges back up that's never been done and is highly suspect that's called blackmail!\n\nBy the way a Democrats don't disagree with deportation and not letting illegal violent criminals into the country but we do disagree with separating women children and babies from their mothers and fathers and we do disagree with just deporting people that are brown black and Muslim many of them that aren't even violent now you can't tell me that it's the most racist deportation ever you name any Canadian any Australian or european that's being deported that's here illegally there's plenty of them I have plenty of friends that know people they work with that are Australian and Canadian and European that are illegally you don't see them getting deported I wonder why they're all white that's why!\n\nTrump wants to say he's only deporting violent criminal gang members more than half of the plane that he deported to a couple of different countries had plenty of people that weren't criminals or gang members and he even ended up deporting American soldiers and vets by mistake and they used a military carrying jet that cost $242,000 for every round trip 12 hours as opposed to what every other president uses a regular Boeing style jet that cost $102,000 for that round trip now you tell me that saving money that's called just showing off and guess who pays for that and he wants to do that every day oh that's a great way to save money?\nPlay you got Trump being harsher on Canadian Mexico than our enemies China and Russia oh that's right he's budding up and siding with Russia now over Ukraine telling the world Ukraine started the war? when Putin is obviously the aggressor and the war starter who even said on TV that he would have this war 3 months and no Russians would die! You now have this clown kissing his ass and spreading Russian propaganda that zielinski is a dictator Which is far from true because if it were true Trump would be actually kissing his ass like he does with every other dictator? I'm lying about he has a 4% of ratings Which is far from the truth he's got 54% rating zelensky which are higher than Trump's right now Trump's ratings are below that and they're going down fast!\nHe is crushing in the stock market he's crushing the economy and grocery prices are sky-high thanks to his tariff solution quote that he doesn't have a clue how they work

Quite given money to sanctuary city then they'll start bidden by rules and deporting the migrants

The core problem is not migrants crossing the Canadian border into the US illegally... It's the number of migrants being imported into Canada by its pink-socked tyrant and his Progressive cohorts.\n\nThe simple fact is that Canada is in desperate need of a mass deportation process that would make anything President Trump is planning pale in comparison. This would solve their rising crime, soaring unemployment, unbelievable housing shortage, and much, much more... INCLUDING the migrant spillover from Canada into the US.\n\nJust sayin'.

It still baffles me that legacy media local and national are claiming that these deportations of illegal migrants are bad because they’re “non violent” and haven’t committed crimes. Get them the hell out of here. It’s making it harder or we make it hard harder for people who are trying to come into this country legally. I also like the argument from people saying that now it’s making it harder for employers to find employees. Obviously, it’s mainly coming from legacy media.

To be fair, most of those migrants went into Canada through the US border in the first place. I do find it odd that they'd be now flooding into the US. What a stupid time for them to do it. I hope Trump truly deports them so they don't go into either country and only back to their homeland.

THAT'S NOT TRUE! its not even true what he says, there was 2100 that passed in 2024!! he doesnt even say what time period he is talking about.\nFor migrants not to enter usa, usa have to protect their side of the border. Our job is to make sure nobody enter canada, not the opposite!\nThe other way around is effing true since Don Cheetos is in office. They all want to come here bfore being deported!!

That’s incredible. Where is the Mexican military. Where is our military. These migrants have no respect for the law. I hope that they deport all of them. We are tired of giving away our rights as citizens to others.

Wonderful News because they really don't follow other country's laws and customs They're also dangerous people something the media doesn't show much. USA has already deported millions of migrants and revoking visas as well, Canada needs to do the same as well.

??? yall thought when trump said deport migrants he was just talking about Mexicans lol had yall thinking he was going after bad Mexican gang members lol

Honestly, whatever they want to say and your media want to present you but an average Indian doesn't support Illegal migrants, infact they SUPPORT THE DEPORTATION! Yes, Shackles is something that can be used only for CONVICTED CRIMINALS not for civil cases and considered inhumane by Indian law. That's it, at the same time, govt of India hasn't said anything about the issue and have supported the deportation. \n\nSo, that's it.

We we give illegal migrants from Bangladesh, Myanmar aadhar cards and right to vote. Aathithi Devo bayou is our motto. But when a developed country shows the way we sit and criticize the manner in which they are deported,they have spine and think of their country's welfare ,we think of votes

Please be clear on your title. Illegal migrants or legal migrants being deported?

This is very bad treating them like criminals . He can deport them . But this is not the way . And Mr. Trump also should also should be also should send away to his own original place as he is also a migrant

If they are illegal migrants then surely deport them back. There is no question about it.

Saudi Arabia is also deporting illegal migrants in a similar way.\nThis is how the world works. Be it a democratic nation state, be it a dictatorial nation state, or be it even a monarchial nation state.\nIt's not an American thing.\nWake up CNN!

Indian MIGRANTS seen in…. WRONG TITLE… Should be “ILLEGAL Aliens DEPORTED BACK TO THEIR COUNTRY”….nice try CNN thats why no one fucking trusts you.

We Indians still support trump we are in favour of deportation of illegal migrants but mistreatment with women and children is unacceptable.

I am not from America and I dont like Trump, many times I laugh about him, but I dont see a problem with deporting illegal migrants.

Hummm ?, one of those migrants being deported looked a lot like VIVEK RAMA-SWAMPY... just wishing...?? ?.

The purpose for migrant deportations, is for trump to keep his MAGA cult members brainwashed and radicalized.

They are illegal migrants and the shackles are for the safety of deportation officers. No harm done, they will be ok. I think the next four years will drag on, time is going very slow.

Indian Government is absolutely in favour of Deportation of Illigal migrants,, we wants the illigal migrants to be in the jail for violating Laws,

WE DO NOT APPRECIATE THIS CHANNEL PUTTING DOWN THOSE CANADIAN CITIZENS THAT DO THIS , That is , BRING TO LIGHT TO DEPORT MIGRANTS . THEY ARE NOT WELCOME HERE , JUST AS IN THE USA . So lady ,take a look .

STOP SPREADING PROPAGANDA! Any migrant that come to the US without documentation will be deported. If you come legally, there won't be a problem!

As Indian ?? I will agree trump is not wrong in this case . This migrants are wrong . Atlest safely he is deported.
