Don't sweat people , the state we are in right now it's not a bad governing ,everything was design and decided I think in 1996, and look at the news from around the world, it's everywhere ,Europe is completely flooded by immigrants which will never integrate with their culture . Governments don't even want to fix this problem ,those corrupted officials are in fevered of multicultural world without religion and national identity .Without fight and blood on the streets nothing will be changed , I root for Alberta to separate, maybe other provinces will open their eyes then.

Stupidity is more dangerous than evil. Look at history. A country that loses a war does not lose because it is less evil but because its people elected a foolish leader, and they have paid the price in blood. America will pay the price—not with Trump's blood, but with the sweat and toil of ordinary citizens.

Dear bodacious,\nI totally agree with you. My Mother was Hungarian and she applied for citizenship with my Dad’s help because he had served in WW2 , and he was an American citizen.\nThey did everything the legal way. Mom took classes. Learned English. She was so proud of being naturalized as an American citizen.\nWhy can’t people obey our laws? They have respect for our Sovereignty or all the people, soldiers et al who fought for our freedom to exist and evolve as a nation.\nI agree with Bllood, Sweat, and Fears as well!\nThe President’s Cabinet are working well together: Kash Patel will move the FBI agents out to work the field of our country….hunting down terrorists and criminals. Trafficking in drugs/ sex/ slave labor.\nObama/Biden disobey existing laws. Hope all the stolen money gets frozen by the DOJ

I don’t understand how the same people demanding reparations for descendants of slaves condone taking advantage of illegal immigrants for cheap sweat shop labor with no benefits or insurance. All of you businesses owners creating “success” on margins built on illegal immigration deserve a reality check.

One little advice, please take a shower, every where this people smells really bad, if you are here in Canada at least be clean don't throw garbage in the streets, educate yourself, its the same people everywhere with this smelly odor of your sweat its disgusting, its not complicated if you can aford to buy an iphone or a luxury car or even a house, then you can go to shower water is free and soap cost 1-2 $ also brush your teeths, its not an myth that here in canada didnt care about how you smell its common sense

Dont cut immigration down.....tell me how did Indian intl student makes up about more than 80% out of all international students. Why didnt the government put a cap or a stop specifically just for Indian people? Why didnt the immigration look deep before giving student visa just like a snap of a finger and see if they can support themselve for school and living expense. \n\nI am an immigrant myself but when i decided to come to canada as a student. I made sure i had enough funds to sustain myself here in canada for 2 years until i can get my work permit then a head to PR. Nowdays I see a lot of international Students get access or abusing goverment facilities and benefits for which not entitle for them but Canadian residence only (PR or Canadian Citizen). I never ask for Cerb when covid happen, never ask food bank my part time job can fullfill that, paid my fare for using transportation, paid my rents and utilities on time and paid my credit cards. Lastly i never complaint focus on my study and I get good high paying jobs. I am proud to contribute to Canadian Economy as an Immigrant.\n\nThe question is are they doing the same? If you cannot sustain yourself dont add your burden to the country. We (Canadian Residence) paid heavy taxes from our sweat to cover ur burden and debt. Put yourseld in our position and you know what I mean.\n\nCanadian Goverment is too nice compare to other western country go and take a look at the US, Australia, British, New Zeland and Europe Nation. If u cannot sustain yourself do you think those gov at given country will give a care abt you? You will 100% deported for sure.\n\nPlease dont ruin this country....Canadian Gov is trying hard to be sympathy but there is time to STOP!!! \n\nI am not far right or left...but please use your COMMON SENSE for ONCE!!!! If you have a BRAIN!!!!

TFW here, east Asian, a couple of things:\nI am paid the provincial minimum wage, and work in the dairy industry, medium sized farm.\nI started working straight out of high school\n\nFrom what I can see and hear from across the province and largely in the western Canadian provinces, older generation farmers are at the retirement age, but the younger generation is generally very reluctant to take over. \nNot all industries, but definitely in livestock, people sometimes don't realize that, there is literally no breaks, ever! You work every day, holidays, Christmas, and if you do chose to take a few days off, your co-workers, i.e. other family members or workers, have to take up the extra workload. You barely have time for your family, you are often tired around your kids. Farmers have some of the highest suicide rates among all occupations, as well as a difficulty to find partners due to the nature of their jobs.\nThe work is hard, days long, especially during harvests, and if the ever more expensive tractors, equipment fail...\nThere used to be a lot of family owned farms, over the last few decades most have sold their generational farm and left the industry, most because of the cost to operate and because the next generation's unwillingness to take over.\nYong people my age have not been seen applying for my position in a few years now, despite ongoing hiring effort at significantly higher than minimum wage, and I have repeatedly stated that I, although love my job, am ready to step aside at any point so a Canadian PR or citizen can take my position, as required by worker rules. There were a few inquiries from neighboring areas, mostly made by parents, but their children in the end all refused to work, even part time, or seasonal.\n\nOn the other hand, there is the issue of prices: equipment costs have largely more than doubled since the pandemic, grain prices rose... and all that on top of the constant uncertainty of the weather every planting and harvesting season. Most farms don't ever make a profit after the yearly operating cost is deducted from earnings, and the little profit that on occasion appear, goes right back into paying debt or reinvesting in renewing long overdue old equipment.\n\nMy position, and all those similar to mine in agriculture, are in all fairness, very low skilled, with minimum training, and therefore is only worth minimum wage, in my opinion. I was actually offered a higher amount but in the end turned it down because on the job, I discovered the only thing I bring to the table is manual labor (I know that's not really the right way to go about wages, but I do believe that wages should be based on the irreplaceableness of one's skills, and as it stands, although no replacements were ever found, I am very much easily replaceable, skill wise). That, compared to a slightly better paid Starbucks position, with benefits (most farm workers and owners don't have benefits or pension, yes owners too), air conditioning, regular work hours. I mean, if it wasn't for my particular interest for agriculture I'd pick Starbucks any day too!\n\nI think a couple issues are at hand, \n1. Most of agriculture's profit ends up in the corporate processing and supermarkets, that needs to change, workers could benefit, as well as consumers, from distributing that profit between farmers and shoppers.\n2. Agriculture in today's context no longer fit the modern life, although I strongly think that A LOT of people can benefit from getting their hands dirty once in a while and sweating a bit, improve physical and mental health, have better discipline all that jazz. So foreign workers are the temporary solution, if well regulated so that Canadian PR and citizens are ALWAYS prioritized for hire and at a fair wage. This cannot happen unless farmers can turn a profit, stated in point 1.\n3. A new generation of farmers are needed to take over, and they need to be somehow convinced that it is worth the toil, because as it stands, it is not, financially, life style wise. Automation is one solution, although therein lies the huge, foreseeable risk of corporate takeover.\n4. On a specific note, TFW does mandate that workers are provided up to standard housing (not always followed), which puts local workers at a huge disadvantage if they are commuting to work and paying rent, although that rarely happens, and the majority of farms do offer housing to all.\n\n\nI am aware that me being treated up to regulation is not the norm among my TFW peers, which is quite sad and unacceptable. But in my opinion, even if given a leveled playing field, wages , conditions, housing, etc. Canadian citizens and PRs largely will be unable to meet the demand for these jobs, from unwillingness to work really hard physically, unwillingness to live the lifestyle, wanting a career with better prospects... these are harsh words, but I believe to be true, and they also come from a lot of older generation farmers talking about their children and grandchildren. \n\nThis is just in the agri industry, and from what I hear from farmers from all over western Canada : )

Freeloaders Enjoying their Stay from the Sweat of the Taxpayers ! WAKE UP AMERICA, THESE PEOPLE AREN'T HERE TO GIVE US A HELPING HAND, THEY'RE KILLING OUR COUNTRY AS WE KNEW IT !!!??

I am not even Canadian, although I have visited many times and enjoyed their hospitality. Nothing pisses me off more than the entitled, disgruntled immigrant. Your country sucks because of the people who live there. We are not here to make your life better or conform to your ways. You showed up in a developed nation and did none of the work that it took to develop said nation. Shedded no blood or sweat that it took to create. Instead of working to make your nation better, you give up and leave. We in the West are EXPECTED to let you in. If our nations fall, where are WE to go? Screw all of you entitled bitches. Why we give our money to your countries is beyond me. An incredible waste.

We have a saying in Canada, when playing hockey just never corner a man from the middle east because he will set up a shop. They don't hang around street corners calling people out, they are very resourceful and will make something positive of their lives here. That is more than I can say for some Canadians who live off the sweat of hard working Canadians.

Im a legal, qualified migrant. I sweated my ass to be here. It was hard, really, it still is BTW. But this is crazy. You cant accept 1 million people and dont build them housing, schools, hospital. I feel the anger of that man.

People that came here 200yrs agobuilt Canada. Not these people that get to come here and not break one bead of sweat to build this country. They come here just after we tamed the indians!

Screw that. Those people who went to school in the past and gave their sweat, blood and tears are going to be overtaken by new skilled immigrants just like that. That's not fair

Not forced to leave they just don't and won't build their own countries. Want to live on the blood , sweat , hard work of others. The world is tired of them flooding their countries with poverty and crime. And why it's always the men no women and children fleeing, shouldnt the men be there to provide instead of fleeing and starting new families elsewhere. People remember Ukraine as soon as SHTF the fan Africans hit the road. I don't know why some people thought they should help fight they wouldn't fight in their own countries.

This is what happens when Socialism and communism finally hits home in the countries practicing it....an all out desperate run out of that country to a country that is for free markets and earn a salary by the sweat of their brow. Take note... you don't find people in South Korea fleeing to North Korea....makes one think doesn't it???

Oh dear God, in just about every other country in the world THEIR Police would be MOWING THEM DOWN WITH RAPID FIRE! \nOk Americans YOU OWE THEM EVERYTHING YOU WORKED FOR! Hand them your money… you privileged pos! Yep open those doors cause we owe them OUR HOMES! \n\nTHANK A DEMOCRAT FOR THIS! \n\nYour money? What you worked your whole life for? HAND IT OVER! HOW FUCKING DARE YOU THINK YOU DESERVE TO KEEP WHAT YOU WORKED SAVED ESRNED AND SACRIFICED BLOID SWEAT AND TEARS! \n\nIf this was Ukraine or North Koreans? Yes. \nThese people have better phones than I do! They just now demand A FREE RIDE! \n\nAmerica is fucked

*Now, this is just a mess! They come over here thinking they are better than Black people, and Blacks are the ones that built this Country off their sweat, blood and deaths. GTF out of here. Is there not enough Law Enforcement to stop them, isn't this illegal?*

Send back every one of them home, let them build their own country. America was built off other people's blood sweat and tears, and they can't even get what they died for and here you are coming in droves to receive, instead of working hard and building your own country.

THE SAD THING HERE IS THAT, THEY DO NOT HAVE ANY LOYALTY TO AMERICA. THEY KUST WANT TO COME AND MAKE MONEY AND SEND IT TO THEIR COUNTRY. IT DOES NOT BENEFIT AMERICA. I THINK THIS MAY BE PLANNED BY THEIR HOME GOVERNMENT TO DISRUPT AMERICA AND OTHER INFILTRATORS ARE INSIDE. THEY MOSTLY ARE GOING TO BREAK THE LAW AND OVERCROWD THE SYSTEM\nWE AMERICANS ARE REALLY STRUGGLING. CANT EVEN BUY A HOUSE WITH ALM THAT WE PAY IN TAXES AND SWEAT . YET THESE PEOPLE ARE COMING AND UNDER 3 YEARS WILL GET A HOME HANDED TO THEM . WHY\nWHY WHY- \nWHY ARE WE AMERICANS MADE TO GO THROUGH THIS KINDS OF HARDSHIP AND YET ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS MOST OF WHOM ARE HERE TO SUCK THE WELFARE SYSTEM GET PRIORITY.\nMOST OF THEM COMING IN HAVE MORE MONEY THAN AMERICANS \nAMERICAN GOVERNMENT, TAKE CARE OF YOUR OWN CITIZENS FIRST . THIS IS THE RIGHT AND HUMANE THING TO DO ELSE, THE COUNTRY WILL LOOSE ITS FLAVOR.\nLet’s live in dignity. \nBEWARE OF WHAT YOU ARE DOING. THIS DOES NOT APPLY ONLY TO VENEZUELAN BUT TO ALL OTHERS \n\nWHEN YOU COME IN LEGALLY, YOU BRING DIGNITY

Why can they not stay in their own country? Why do they want to go to America? Because the people of America developed their land. They want to go live there because the table is already set for them. They can just sit down and eat and enjoy and break down afterwards. Because it wasn't their generations blood sweat and tears that build it. Why can they not build their own country up?

All these people bitching about immigrants.Canada was made from blood sweat and tears of immigrants. The system needs fixing for sure but making immigrants feel like they are subhuman isnt it.

Exactly where is this mythical land called Canada ? ? seriously , this nation needs people who are willing to work , too many Canadians are just not willing to break a sweat Truth be told this country is one of the most accepting Yet we can't just let the borders become overwhelmed with migrants seeking a better life, Canada is in crisis with few places available to rent and owning a home here is out of reach for most Canadians along with a growing homeless population a huge drug problem The future is very unclear.

So, you are affirming that your government lives off the sweat of each employee, the government devalues the academic studies of other countries, the climate is very bad, many people are not friendly, and also you forgot to mention the shortage of houses in the country. . Wow! I think Europe and South America sound like better options to live.

So it takes me 2 years lots of blood sweat a masters degree a accountancy degree a interview with the immigration officer thousand if miles away than legally entering canada and than these people!!!!!!

Deport them all, it's one thing to assist those that are seeking refuge and another to give people the luxury that our forefathers have granted us off the backs of hard work, sweat, blood and tears.\n\nThey need to band together and do it the right way, start a business, change the system, make their country one to be proud of rather than suckle off of people that are already working hard... the purpose of denying is so that those that want a different life can make a difference instead of making life hard for those around them and living off their backs... go home and dig deep to provide for your family... stop suckling off my wifes tit like you're one of my damn kids

Jose was rejected by 3 countries; his own native land, usa and now Canada. Jose doesn't understand that and calls himself a victim while abusing the system. He's not legal but he's working?, wtf?? People in shitholes are never welcome, fix your own problems, sacrifice, blood, sweat and tears and change your own country for the better. #nomoreimmagrantcowards.

Did your dumbass just repeat that sweating BS. .?\n Most brown people won't steal because we are the first to accuse!!!

That's why we've had laws in Canada for many years regarding people covering up themselves and walking amongst others..... They banned the Mardis Gras here because people were covering their faces... Yet Muslims can ? Who built Canada from sweat and blood ?
