What problem do you have with Indians living there? You guys are from Europe yourself. White people, and people from all over the world are coming to Canada because Canada was a vacant lot. It's not anyone's land. There are no native inhabitants there. Understand?😮😮😮😮😮😮😮

Canada 🇨🇦 has been trying to attract more people from Europe and that has failed for years now because of our winters. Nobody has children like in the past and the demographic of our population has declined. If we don’t have children, then who’s going to pay for the pensioners to live? All the comments here are just about how crooked the liberals are and not a bad word about PP. If you google him you’ll find that he is worth $95 million and he’s a shareholder of Brookfield and yet he’s a god in the same eyes. Well Carney is a banker and I would expect a banker to have more money than just about anyone. I’m a conservative voter but I am proud to say that I voted for Carney otherwise we would have been sold out to the USA . The problems with immigration is a very strong and should be reviewed and corrected.

Canada has lost the plot. Recruiting foreigners for our military should be illegal. There is no doubt Carney is destroying Canada. Canada and Canadians don’t make these decisions. Carney makes them in the backrooms without consultation with anyone. The Liberals take no ideas or instruction from the people who are paying and employing them. They did not elect a Dictator which we have.

Broken ? Our Liberal government is dysfunctional, honestly , why would anyone expect anything other than broken .

I repeat myself, anyone who voted for the lieberals, really needs to have their heads examined .

How much longer are people gonna listen to this your racists if you dont argument. Its shuts down reasonable discussions and paints anyone with an opinion as racists. Liberals- do what I say or your racists. Fuck you liberals guess im racist!

Carney makes sure he puts the dumbest people on immigration. Because he knows the dumbest people support the Liberal Party. So it doesn't matter how bad they break everything. They're gonna get still gonna get supported. Because for some reason, people think Carney is king and walks on water and was the first man on the moon and everything else he takes credit for that. He didn't do. He left nothing but chaos in his wake anywhere. He's been just asked the slaves in the Amazon rainforest. What they thought of him in Brookfield, management asked the United Kingdom what they thought about his stint there and now he's in Canada. He wrecked things for 5 years as Trudeau's advisor and now he's the big shot, loser, screwing Canada even worse. I'm willing to bet if anyone actually cared enough to follow the money. I think canadian taxpayers are paying for not only his trips around to these other countries for deals, but I think were accommodating Brookfield management as well!

So how do they get these positions. They are a joke anyone else would be fired

The minister was probably chosen specifically because she was inept and wouldn't know what was going on in her department; that reduces the likelihood that anyone would be turned away a while longer. As Lorrie said - just like my Political Science professor pointed out almost 50 years ago - immigrants largely vote for whoever was in power when they arrived in the country. A very large percentage of the people that they bring into the country under a Liberal government are likely to vote Liberal. That's a (practically) guaranteed stream of new Liberal voters to replace the old Liberal voters who have become disillusioned by the Liberal Party's actions. It has to stop. We need to vet EVERYONE who comes in and we shouldn't be giving them gold-plated health care until we've granted them refugee status or permanent residency and they should be told that up front so no one is shocked or feels cheated. If they know that and still come, they'll know what they're facing. If they choose not to come, they've made an informed decision.

More BS from a supposedly neutral balanced media outlet. At least when the CBC have a panel they have one from each party. Here are the facts. The Honourable Lena Metlege Diab is the current Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship. She was appointed to the role in May 2025 by Prime Minister Mark Carney following the April 2025 federal election. Her current activity is defined by a shift toward more restrictive and "talent-focused" policies. Here is the technical breakdown of her recent initiatives: 1. 2026 Express Entry Overhaul On February 18, 2026, Diab announced significant adjustments to the Express Entry system. The primary objective is to transition from broad intake to "sustainable levels" while addressing specific labor gaps. * New Categories: Streams were added for researchers, senior managers, transport occupations (pilots/mechanics), and foreign military personnel recruited by the Canadian Armed Forces. * Medical Priority: A specific category was introduced for foreign medical doctors already possessing Canadian work experience. * Tightened Requirements: She doubled the category-specific work experience requirement from 6 months to 12 months. This move is designed to narrow the candidate pool and prioritize those with deeper integration into the Canadian labor market. 2. Legislative Reform (Bill C-12) Diab is currently championing a major immigration and border security bill (C-12), which is moving through its third reading in the Senate as of February 26, 2026. * Executive Power: The bill grants the Governor in Council (acting on cabinet advice) broad authority to vary, cancel, or suspend immigration documents and applications in the "public interest." * Asylum Restrictions: Diab has been vocal about curbing what she terms "fraudulent" claims. The legislation proposes making anyone who has been in Canada for over a year ineligible to claim asylum, and it restricts claims from those entering via land borders outside official ports of entry. 3. Shift in Strategy The Minister’s rhetoric marks a pivot from previous Liberal administrations. Her current messaging focuses on "taking back control" of immigration levels. While she continues to promote the recruitment of "the best and brightest," she has explicitly stated the government's goal is to reduce the total annual number of both permanent and temporary residents. Summary Table | Focus Area | Recent Action | |---|---| | Express Entry | Increased experience threshold to 12 months; added military/researcher streams. | | Asylum Policy | Supporting Bill C-12 to restrict claims made after 1 year of residency. | | Staffing | Recently appointed Isaac MacDonald (former P.E.I. Liberal executive) as Director of Parliamentary Affairs.

The Lieberals system is to greet anyone no questions asked as long as you remember who to vote for . Pure corruption, all immigration ministers, the Lieberals have put in that portfolio have failed . Then they fail upwards. You are a racist if you question any immigrant . Pure bullshit.

Fast tracking residency for military personnel? Seriously, who will be vetting them. Serious National Security RISK for anyone to suggest doing this. Treasonous!!!!

I didn’t vote Liberal because they ran the country for 10 years and they got nothing done so why should anyone else vote Liberal.

Come on Vassy you are sounding rediculous. What does it matter 10,000 or 100,000 anyone committing a bogus claim needs to be weeded out and sent home. Doesn't this just make sense why should they have better health care than I do as a Canadian who has contributed for years.

Deport them all immediately. Deport anyone with suspicion of offense. Deport anyone without citizenship or PR, criminal or not. No more sponsors. If you're not Canadians or PR today, it's time to go. If you are a foreign national and are suspected of ties to this, Canadian status revoked, deported. We need to stop being suckers.

BAN ANYONE THAT CANNOT PASS AN ENGLISH TEST NOW- A Test delivered Verbally or in Writing!

Anyone who watched the entire program seen how out of touch tom mulcare was you would have to be an absolute nut job to vote ndp

i dont undeerstand as why anyone would against stopping bogus asylums claimants to receive govt benefits. This country needs more mental health doctors.

Vassy is not a stupid woman, however, she is being deliberately obtuse as she desperately tries to find fault with this proposed motion. Anyone with half a brain can see that it is specifically directed at proven, bogus asylum seekers and those whose Visas have expired and have no right to even remain in Canada. Also, I don't care what kind of a mess a legitimate asylum seeker is fleeing, I do not believe anyone "from away" is entitled to better health care benefits than Canadian citizens.

In no situations should anyone be getting for free better health benefit than tax payers.

Trudeau is arrogant and ignorant… why would anyone listen to this fool

Don't immigrate anyone.

It’s beyond me how anyone trusts this corporate oil and gas shill.

How much are you going to and have already spent on studies to Separate our Province, Legal fights to shaft Teachers back to work. You are the problem and anyone who supports you !

If I hear the two words, “Canada’s Generosity” one more time, I will puke. This is really about “Canada’s Stupidity”, if you ask any tax payer, or anyone else with a brain. Giving benefits to fraudsters, and cheats, that tax paying Canadians don’t even receive or cannot afford is pure criminal behaviour.

Uhhhh ICE anyone?!?! 👍

Are you kidding me? This has been going on for too long? Why is our government so slow? Government is a joke! Anyone with any criminal violation should be deported. Save tax payer money.

Wow! How could this ever happen?! Maybe the introduction of One Touch where anyone can just walk right in our open borders! Give your head a shake! Elbows up

The US is chasing them out and so they come to the soft country of canada who accepts anyone with unconditional love

Anyone who thinks this isn’t by design is stupid!

I hope anyone in the comments outraged about this arent liberal voters. If you are a liberal voter this is the cause of your actions, Trudeau welcomed known terrorists into this country, youre on youtube, look up the prime minister of india calling out the canadian government for welcoming all their criminals into our country. This wont stop when you vote for this to happen🤦🏼‍♂️

The problem is the liberal government who lets anyone in the country

Anyone who is NOT a citizen, who commits a drug or violent crime, should get deported period.

We can no longer fix this issue because the majority or our country is IMMIGRANTS! They literally can out vote real Canadians. We have lost our country. The west doesn’t even get a say in federal politics…immigration is a multi billion dollar industry. There is nothing left in this country for our children and I am truly scared to grow old here with millions of immigrants who hate us and our country, running everything and filling our medical system. Whites are blames for being racist yet anyone with common sense can see whites are the LEAST racist of all. We are doomed, and quite honestly this country isn’t worrh fighting for…we don’t have free speech or the right to self preservation for a country that won’t stfu about ‘human rights’

Sorry Brian Kenny doesn't deserve anyone's attention after what he did to Albertans..Never forgive

enough with the bullshit myth that we had/have a great immigration system, we haven't for decades, only a complete moron would say so, like Ivison who keeps lying saying there was "CONSENSUS" among who? the politicians? the greedy businesses that want slave labour, cheap labour, the NDP zealots? cause in almost 60 yrs, I've never once, ever, never heard anyone say that they wanted more immigrants in Canada, ever

I have SERIOUS indian fatigue. Anyone else?

I don't know anyone who is "divided" on this issue. Many of my friends are 1st gen immigrants, a couple of them had to go back to their home country after their visa expired, they were bummed that they personally couldn't stay, but they also openly complained that the levels of immigration was unsustainable, competition for rent/jobs/healthcare too high and felt that some people would have to go back home and it happened to be them.

"Without warning tightened immigration" The last 3 years of Trudeau's reign were Canadians, actual Canadians who can vote, screaming at Trudeau to cut the immigration numbers. Anyone angry about it is just pissed that they can't cry more since Carney isn't making a circus of the whole thing.

Anyone under 45 in Canada cant afford to live because of these insane policies.

Anyone making less than a living wage just shouldn't have their labour taxed at all

Do it! We don’t need to support anyone else. Let’s get this country in order and take care of our own first!

Has anyone checked Tim Hortons?

I really don't understand why even this is a news. Its implicit that when visa is about to expire, person must leave the country applies to any country in the world. Are we really a nation with open borders if so they declare it and invite anyone to come and give them PR card upfront when they onboard air canada flight.

When will anyone mention that we did not need to school food programs before. Food banks were not overwhelmed and closed because no one could afford to donate, and we sure as hell didn’t have real Canadians taking from a food bank, when they knew they didn’t need it!

So nothing that helps anyone, sounds about right

Anyone coming here to having a baby or 90 day, find someone and get married for a small fee.

That means they will only allow activists, anyone else needs to wait.🤔

Anyone notice all the new commercials on how great Canada is on TV. That’s the liberals trying to focus its voters away from all the corruption being committed behind closed doors. Real Canadians know what they are doing 🤬

Canada should help their people and stop worrying about other countries If Canada wants to stop these people from coming to Canada then Canada should put money on cellphones and anyone with family in another country has to pay more tax The reason people from other countries are in Canada is so canadians make money off selling things to them Not to remove them They pay tax so we have services and Canada helps Canadians Canadians are not helping canadians They're using foreigners as an excuse for them to not help canadians and making us lose money
