As A Indian While watching this video I'm totally embarrassed. Please throw out these people and your liberal government they will destroy your culture.

I'M AN ASIAN IMMIGRANT WHO IS TOTALLY EMBARRASSED AND ASHAMED OF THESE NEW MASSIVE ASIAN IMMIGRANTS THAT BRING SHAME AND EMBARRASSMENT TO THIS WONDERFUL AND GIVING COUNTRY, AND TO HARD-WORKING, LAW-ABIDING IMMIGRANTS OF YESTER-YEARS. CANADA OUGHT TO REASSESS ITS PROTOCOLS & STANDARDS REQUIREMENTS SURROUNDING IMMIGRATION. I WOULD START BARRING ANYONE WITH CRIMINAL RECORDS - NO EXCEPTIONS, WHILE DEPORTING THOSE WHO COMMITTED CRIME IN THIS COUNTRY ! I PERSONALLY APOLOGIZE TO ALL CANADIAN CITIZENS AT LARGE FOR THESE UNDESIRABLE IMMIGRANTS.

Canadian here ????????!! To any Americans reading this comment, my disgust over this whole tariff situation is not on the USA, it’s not Americans, IT’S TRUMP!!! Period!!! There is no doubt millions of you are very angry and embarrassed about what he wants to do. I want our 2 nations to be friends and allies forever. Any animosity between us is just extremely pointless. \n\nI want to thank the Americans who are wishing Canada and us Canadians the best and who are totally against what Trump wants to do!!!

Justin is a total embarrassment. Liar, too. Couldn't just secure the borders and reverse safe drug and soft on crime bs. Cant even listen to justin, every word can be proven otherwise.

Wow, wouldn’t it be nice to have a president that could speak as well as the Prime Minister of Canada. I hope that Canadians understand that most Americans are totally embarrassed and appalled at what Donald Trump is doing.

One thing you can count on: Drumpf will profit from all of this while everyone else suffers. Total embarrassment to us. Stand firm, Canada!

As an American, I am totally embarrassed by our idiotic President. Sorry Canada, it’s not you, it’s us…..

We're all so disgusted and saddened about all of this. You're so right about everything that you're saying about trump; Putin has his puppet in this country and he's making the most of it, by helping trump to become dictator here. Please Canada, do what you have to do, we don't want this either; we're stuck with trump until our congress grows a spine and kicks this ugly, vindictive man out of office! Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau, you are what is needed in this crisis! I'm glad to be a Canadian, I just wish I was living there, not here. What a total embarrassment to us all that did not vote for trump. (from Sandi Paquet)

I do believe that Putin has something incriminating on Trump that he has been blackmailing him with. Maybe something totally embarrassing from when Trump visited Russia as a private citizen several years ago.

I'm an American woman who is totally Embarrassed for the USA. I didn't vote for him and I have no Respect for him. I stand for Canada, Ukraine and Mexico. We're going to suffer while the billionaires in the white house (Musk) keep getting wealthy. What the hell Trump. Ur getting rid of our allies for being Putin's Puppet!!! I hate it here!??

It's a total embarrassment to be an American living through this circus. Just heartbreaking ?

I agree with Trudeau,100%. He's a better leader than Trump will ever be!!! Trump is a total embarrassment!! I hope we can survive these next 3 1/2 years!!!

As an Indian I totally support this. Indians immigrants have already embarrassed India enough ??

That dude is a total piece of shit. He should be embarrassed to show his face on camera and represent the military. \nYou are not qualified to serve!

trudeau broke canada for the next 3 generations they will have to pay for his incompetence ,,,,Total embarrassment for canadians and the d.ummy keep smiling wtf ?

Total embarrassment here in ?? with this incompetent government.

Next thing we know Trudeau will give this totally average Canadian a 10 million dollar settlement for embarrassing him in public. \n There is only a certain type of Canadian that is allowed to be reported on so negatively. \n Right truckers!

I am glad I listened to this podcast and every Canadian should watch how these institutions are profiting and exploiting off of innocent young people, it is time to stop it all now, and a deceit well run program be set up that is totally transparent. Canadian embarrassment at all levels of Government, Universities and Colleges.

I am an Indian and I am disgusted to see what fellow Indians have done to Canada! They come here with their total lack of civic sense! I was born and raised in Calcutta as we navigated daily through filth and dirt on the streets - not only because of the poor on the street - but bec of everyone else who walks around and thinks nothing of throwing their garbage on the streets, spitting and blowing their noses on the streets and even in buildings - stairway landings, or peeing in the open - in public spaces or against building walls, etc.. Narcissistic, selfish drivers who cut people off, break the traffic rules, grab parking spots, etc.. They come here and make every effort to Indianize Canada - to make this into India instead of respecting this country that has generously and (ignorantly!!) allowed them in!! If they want to live their Indian culture in an 'Indian environment' - then for goodness sake - GO BACK TO INDIA and clean up that country your call your 'matri bhoomi' - your Mother!! The presenter is right - Indians (and Sri Lankans, Bangladeshis and Pakistanis too included here - all with the same mentality!) have dragged down the customer service experience in stores and restaurants. Indians are usually polite but they are not good at maintaining a high standard of customer service! Employees in Walmart, Costco, Tim Hortons (especially!), etc., are seen standing around, chatting with each other in their Indian languages instead of being professionally attentive to customers. The shopping experience is not pleasant like it was 25 years ago!! Your remarks are not harsh and Indians NEED to take it personally and be embarrassed into doing the necessary to make the changes they need to. We immigrated to Canada not to come to 'another India' - we came to Canada and would like to live in this country to appreciate it's uniqueness and contribute to maintaining it the way it has been! The presenter has done a good job with this video. Very fair. The highly ignoramus Liberal Government leader with his Indian goons in tow - esp that sell-out NDP leader whose support of Trudope has gotten us in such a mess in this country - are totally to blame!! Indians need to have some self respect and like you said - see themselves as ambassadors of India abroad and present themselves with dignity worthy of respect!! Look at the state of India - with all the money and tech and education for urban dwellers and the elite, the country still wallows in filth and the poor continue to suffer great poverty while the rich get richer and call it karma when the poor suffer - while not lifting a finger to alleviate their poverty..... izzath ka saval hai (matter of respect! - greatly valued!!) - is only personal and selfish and related to one's own family and status - to hell with the rest of the country and people!! They brag about the lavish living of the Ambanis and Goenkas, etc - while the world sees the social injustice and gross disparity born of self-indulgence, selfishness and greed that is at the heart of Indian life in India!

I am 63 born and raised in Canada all my life and can honestly say that I have never been as embarrassed to be a Canadian since the pandemic where we let millions of immigrants come here take our jobs (with government subsidies) abuse of our free medicare system and have all their family members abuse it. They made housing unaffordable, impose their laws and religion and show total disrespect for Canadian culture. We lost this country to immigrants and corrupt government led by the worst PM in CDN history. Democracy has been replaced by a totalitarian state which has no respect for citizens rights...unless your an immigrant.

I always wondered why I had to be here when the snow tilted between 45 and 60 degrees in winter and hit my face at 30-40 km/h.\nquality of food, transportation, service from employees, speed of processing time, etc there were many things that made me really unsatisfied being living in Toronto.\nsame, at the first time I came Toronto, everything looks great. but not anymore \nI'm korean and I feel really unsafe when I go and live abroad. Korea, Japan, Singapore mainly all Asian countries are top 5 in safety all over the world I think. \nAsia especially Korean and Japan have great service, quality of food with reasonable price. I think I don't need to move foreign country. \nmy background is in South Korea but I can say living in Toronto Canada was horrible and harsh for Korean. Because of multiple reasons but the harsh weather is the biggest for me. Feels like winter in Toronto is 7~8 months long if I compare it to winter in Korea. Fall and Spring?? No, they don't have fall and spring and it's all winter. they have snow in early September late April or May. It was horribly hard because the cold air from the arctic and really powerful wind came all together. even though the weather and temperature look a little bit off from Korea, Canada has a much more harsh location with weather. not only harsh weather but they do provide really embarrassing experience such as expensive payment for everything, a lot of factors disturb me from leaking money. I don't think Canada is a good country. my view of this country totally has been changed 3 years ago.

Absolutely NO! Never! Besides all of the gun violence & the shitty health care, after Trump became president and the behavior witnessed during (and after) his presidency, along with the behavior of some republicans, really surprised me and totally turned me off. There’s no professional, no mental competence. Just appalling how politicians act. We all know they lie etc but trump really made the US look stupid. I was embarrassed listening and watching how some acted, and do still act. Nobody acted so trashy before Trump. And I’m not into politics. I’m just really surprised by the attitudes and lack of professionalism. Oh, and the US isn’t as friendly as we are.

Totally disgusting and the Biden administration should be embarrassed of themselves! 2024 is coming up fast! And out will go Biden and his administration! ??

My grandparents immigrated from Italy and Ireland. They never got nice warm Canada Goose jackets, clothes, Nike shoes designer jeans, free English lessons or welfare. They paid there way, bought their land and found work LEGALLY, paid to learn English.\nThey did not steal unemployed Canadians jobs going through Trudeaus let’s hire out of the country so our government funds part of the wage. What we get are lousy heath care workers who barely understand or speak the English language and are caring for our Elderly and mistreating them. This I saw first had. I took my Mother home out of a senior home and cancelled home care as they never showed up on time. Would they leave there parent in a urine soaked brief for 5 hours as that is how late they were. I had to quit my job to take care of her. I myself am disabled with a spinal injure. The worst part of “Home Care workers” is that they wanted me to call in and cancel so they got paid. This statement gave from the Home Care nurse in charge of these immigrants working here. Seven of my friends, who are educated health care workers, which they themselves paid for, not paid my our government. They can’t get a job. The last job I applied for and they ask you status I put that I am a Canadian refugee in my own country. \nPretty sad when on Remembrance Day you have these woke individuals begging for money to help refugees. They should be ashamed of themselves for this disgusting action as this is a time to remember the men and women who fought for our freedom. Trudeau is a total embarrassment to all Canadians. He brings in more refugees rather than helping Veterans and homeless Canadians.
