I'm an Aussie who did a Working Holiday in Canada and was shocked at the level of segregation in Canadian cities. They have literal cities that cater exclusively to one ethnicity; examples include Surrey and Brampton (Indian), Richmond, Burnaby and Markham (Chinese) and Vaughan (Italian). It's really funny cos Canadians that come to Australia like to lecture us on how welcoming and mixed Canada is when Canadian society is far more segregated than ours.

I’m an Aussie who stands with World law and Order, the rule of law. I stand against Trump, Russia, North Korea and all dictatorships and autocrats. Shame on them, evil criminals all. Bravo and all support for Canada, Mexico, Ukraine and a refreshingly strengthened Europe and Scandinavia.

I’m an Australian and if Trump does this to our country I hope our politicians has the BALLs to stand up to this nut case like the Canadians did. Every Aussie stands with CANADA!

As an Aussie, I'm proud to see Prime Minister Trudeau speak so aloquently to his people and neighbouring people and call out the idiocy of Little donys contempt for allies and love of dictators

. Des cousins de mon père Antoine Escalona et des cousins de la famille Lopez sont liés au renseignement mais aussi à une grande bande en france notamment la bande les tigres blanc dans la région de Sommières dans le Gard . Et à une grande communauté chretienne Je devais épouser une cousine de leur famille c’est ce qui était prévu depuis mon enfance. Seulement le jour ( J ) j’ai refusé de sortir avec elle et de l’épouser. Suite à cela un acharnement à commencé j’ai été harcelé par le réseau du renseignement pendant des années de 1998 à mars 2024 . J’ai subi viols , tortures. Humiliations, hypnose empoisonnements par drogue volatile . Je veux quitter la France qui est un pays de traîtres et de lâches. Aidez moi a quitter la France. Il faut qu’un pays m’accorde l’asile qu’il me protège. Aidez moi s’il vous plaît. \n\nUN POLICIER voudrait peut-être me contacter pour m’aider me conseiller. \nSachez que certains gendarmes ont participé à du harcèlement contre moi en collaboration au patron et au réseau du renseignement plus rarement des policiers je n'ai aucune confiance en la justice française. \nSi vous vous renseignez vous apprendrez que je suis considéré comme malade délirant . Sachez que c’est une erreur c’est suite à des manipulations sous hypnose et effet de drogue que j’ai été induit en erreur. Suite à cela j’ai dit des choses à des psychiatres qui se sont retournées contre moi . Par exemple les cousins a mon père et cet Antoine Escalona m’ont fait croire qu’ils étaient des familles maffieuses infiltrées dans le réseau de l’armée qu’ils étaient des agents de la CIA ou encore une société secrète ou une association entre plusieurs sectes comme les temoins de jehovas avec la scientologie et LES SERVICES secrets américain . Suite à ces manipulations qui m’ont induit en erreur j’ai répèté des choses de ce genre aux psychiatres qui m’ont fait passer pour un malade délirant. \nSi un policier veut m’aider me conseiller mon téléphone .. 06 61 92 23 03 . Aidez moi a quitter ce pays de lâches et de traîtres français de la communauté militaire et du renseignement et de cette communauté chrétienne. Please hello me !

The West is being destroyed by design, on purpose. I'm an Aussie, and whilst things aren't exactly great here anymore, it's arguably better than Canada, UK, USA and much of Europe.

This is so sad to watch. I'm an Aussie in Sydney who worked in Calgary for 10 years between 2004 and 2014. Watching your country deteriorate like this at the hands of your glorious leaders is gut wrenching. The spread of wasting humanity across North America as the legalisation of drug use (+ other socialist policies) is taking hold bends my mind. We also have unattainable house prices here for many, but we don't have the large scale social devastation (yet). Good luck in your journey - can't imagine how tough this is for you and your family. Cheers - Dave

Hey Canadians, I'm an Aussie, will you welcome me if I immigrate?

I'm Canadian, spot on Aussie, thanks for this.

The problem with most Canadians is that they are parroting the leftist rhetoric. I have chatted with many people that I met in the nearby park when my dog was still alive, but every time I tried to feel people out about their stance on immigration, they immediately began to regurgitate the brainwashed bullshit that the woke left had fed them. I only know a few people who have similar ideas, but it's nowhere near enough to start a movement. I'm an Aussie citizen as well. Thinking of moving back at some point, even though I know the situation is almost as bad as it is here ?.

I’m an Aussie. I went to Canada on a 2 year working holiday visa. I arrived in Vancouver. Didn’t feel like I was in Canada. Felt like I was living in Hong Kong. Moved to Calgary. Felt like I was living in Delhi.Within 1 year moved back to Melbourne. Or should I say “Mumbai”.\nNo matter where you go in the western world, curry munchers and chopsticks everywhere.

I’m Aussie, Indians are integral to our nation & culture. This is sickening. I hope a company in Canada hooks him up with a sweet gig, & he doesn’t need to fear another delivery.

How about you get an education in your own country. I'm Aussie and we set limits on our own people at University and their education so that they can profit of foreign students, most being from China and India even though they have the 2nd and 3rd highest GDP's in the world and 1st and 2nd highest populations in the world, so they should be able look after their own instead of jeopardising the education of our own, but then Goverment will say we need to increase immigration to 400,000 a year ( just hit 27 million, 2 decades before we ment too) of mainly skilled workers who got their skill and education from our nation instead from their own people. All of this during a housing crisis, cost of living crisis, small job market and overwhelming Immigration. Dumbest plan I've ever heard.

I’m Aussie, but left Australia long term last year…

je vous comprends tellement vous avez dit tout haut ce que je pense tout bas et je m,ennuie aussi d,etre entouree de vottre culture. bonne chance a vous inchallah

Canada and Australia have so much in common incl. genocidal monarchs as national heads except for the weather i.e., snow vs desert/temperate grassland. As an Aussie, I’ve lived most of my life in Australia — I was making Au$200,000/yr and my partner is an ICU nurse who made around Au$100,000/yr — and by my standards our life was average in real terms although most (ignorant) Aussies would say we had a great life. Thing is, most Aussies (and Canadians) haven’t experienced anything better whereas I have lived and worked in four countries and my partner has lived and worked in three — we appreciate good living standards and I’ve noticed that most Canadians and Aussies don’t even know what we mean when we talk about such things. Anyway we permanently moved to the US this year because I’m also American — now finally we can start a family!

I'm gonna propose something not so crazy because Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the US all do different parts of these already - that any country that's majority English speaking/common law based legal system can opt in to standardize credentials for high school, university, and trade schools. Each country publishes an annual skills shortage list and any citizen of those countries with the right credentials can apply for a work permit (so you can be properly vetted) that becomes valid with a job offer. The US & Canada already do this for select occupations through NAFTA and Aussies can already effectively move to the US under the E-3 visa program. I'm American but went to university in Australia. It's really silly that we don't already do this. I also live in Florida now and work with people from Trinidad, Jamaica, Bahamas, etc. and it's such an unnecessarily burdensome process to hire a professional who you know already has the credentials and work experience.

I'm not Aussie, in fact the only Aussies we get here in Spain are the ones running with the bulls til they can no longer run. At all... Sad but true. This clip I found it really funny because somehow I know stuff about Australia. The backpackers import export so good. Fukin Australians! I guess I'm now allowed to enter.

As an aussie… i didnt get any of it (maybe cus i’m also asian)

The wage of a miner in the US is $38,000 p.a. and they have to live on site permanently. I'm sure you know all the stuff about employment conditions, healthcare and crime over there but Canada is a different proposition. Work in Oil & Gas in Canada can be good but I remember when the oil price sank and a lot of it became unprofitable, a lot of Aussies were the first to lose their jobs over there and had to come back. The cold will also be another interesting factor. Sincerely wish you the best though and that you end up somewhere where you feel happy. Who knows - it could still be Perth or somewhere in Australia.

Well I would have failed at the first question. Good thing I'm no Aussie

I'm not even from Australia and I understood how spot on all of these were! Maybe I'm an Aussie.

Lots of killed expats/migrants/international students to Canada, Australia and NZ leave in the long term because of housing, fake crime statistics, taxation, systemic/institutional discrimination and limited work opportunities. The US benefits from this because that’s where skilled Canadians, kiwis and Aussies go… nurses, technology specialists, structural engineers, biomedical technicians, researchers — all leave at some point barring a minority with family ties e.g., chronically sick parents. Interestingly enough, the US has country-specific skilled employment visas for Australia (E3) & Canada just for this purpose ? I’m an Indian-South African-Aussie citizen who earns excellent cash in Australia and just got PR (green card) in the US — happily moving to the States with my partner in a few weeks!

Je suis né au Québec, j'y ai grandi, étudié, travaillé, vécu presque toute ma vie, sauf quelques années à Toronto et Ottawa pour les études et le travail, où je me suis jamais vraiment senti chez moi, mais comme dans un pays étranger. J'aime le Québec, son histoire, sa culture, sa langue, son mode de vie et les Québécois en général. Je m'accommode de son climat, de ses six mois ou presque d'hiver, mais quand même avec de beaux et chauds étés. Je m'accommode aussi de la vie chère due aux taxes et impôts multiples à payer, les plus élevés en Amérique du Nord, qui fait que paradoxalement, il en coûte quand même moins cher vivre ici qu'ailleurs au Canada et au filet social dont les Québécois bénéficient et qui fait l'envie de bien des citoyens ailleurs au pays. L'ombre au tableau : l'hostilité et le racisme du Canada anglais, y compris la plupart des anglophones du Québec et les allophones qui joignent cette communauté récalcitrante envers le Québec et les francophones en général, le wokisme ambiant, la complaisance de la mairesse de Montréal, Valérie Plante, qui a transformé la ville en une immense piste cyclable, l'hypocrisie de Justin Trudeau quant à la législation québécoise pour la protection de la langue et de la laïcité, qu'il entend contester devant la Cour Suprême du pays. Si je n'étais autant attaché au Québec, ce serait les principales raisons qui me feraient quitter le Québec, mais pour aller où ? Où ? Des suggestions éclairées ?

I'm an Aussie living in Canada. This is perfection.

I’m Aussie but i had a humanities teacher from Alberta and he always brought up how good it was. Would love to visit Canada one day

I'm Aussie and love all about Canada. The landscape, the people, the food,hockey jerseys and snow. Canadians I've met here seem to filter out idiots but with persistence in time do open up to others who have intelligent views. Meaning I feel they don't suffer fools. A respectable trait.\nI love all Canadians and our door is open to come over and sun-baked over here. \nI'd love to visit,even stay a while but would miss sunny Queensland. But heil Canadia

All Western countries should close borders against these people. They use all the systems, take all the resources and money..lie..yeppp.. Do not integrate.. abuse Aussies here, and look down on Westerners. They do not belong in Western culture.. I'm not sure really anybody wants them at all!!!!

I love Canada and I’m Aussie and this doesn’t change my opinion and Canadians coz ik this happens in my country too lol
