Im not Canadian but I visited Canada twice specifically Montreal I saw how ugly and dirty indian neighborhoods are …the apartment I was staying at in 2019 there was only one Indian couple neighbors who both were very dirty but overall it was a decent place but past forward to 2025 the building got a lot more dirty because of other new Indian Neighbors u can’t even use the lifter because of the smell one of them brought his family from India and I think the dad peeid in the lifter and they brought bugs with them imagine how bad the situation was 🤮… also one them was literally walking barefoot with a weird disgusting towel he scared the shit out of me for a moment I felt so unsafe as a girl thank god I wasn’t alone otherwise I know he would’ve done something bad to me … I would never go back to that place ever again.. I spoke to Canadians who lived there they all had plans to move out to other areas they couldn’t stand them anymore like I went to asian and arabs / North Africans and sub Saharan Africans Jewish Mexican neighborhoods yeah they weren’t 100% clean but it’s clean nice smell and people aren’t loud like u see decent looking civilized people even tho some are very poor so it’s not about poverty

The guy in the bike is a real racist. Africans are highly intelligent. No wonder you ride a bike in winter. Really bad person.

Tyler, great video. I'm a born African man. Our culture is beautiful. What fluorescent snowbunny vest dude is saying is bullshit of the highest rank!! We do not have low intelligence as the guy with the fluorenscent vest claims!!! We have African brothers and sisters who are basically geniuses. We have that, too, better than whites. Inventions made by Blacks but, the white man wanted the credit so bad for it. That's your story, anything Africans/Blacks create, y'all want to steal and, "make it ours" and you alter history books and other storytelling materials for that. You people have a serious issue and he claims whites as being the good ones? 😂😂 Seriously, this bullshit boils my blood, it makes me sick. No one is good except God! Just because you do not understand another man's culture, it doesn't mean he's of low intelligence. Same language dialects. I can't believe he said such bullshit about my people! Does he mingle with us or know us?! He looks like he's probably stayed in Canada all his life until now. This is pathetic but I know you whites are just afraid and terrified of us. I'll never forget the way we suffered and still are.

How hypocrite is the guy with work jacket on bike, talking about he was more comfortable with Indians as opposed to Muslims and Africans!!! What?? What a filthy racist is this guy!!! He hates Africans because he believes that rape is normal in their African culture!!! What?? He has no idea that India has highest rape rate in a year and brutality including regular lynching... my goodness... this guy will not open his eyes yet. And why he hates muslims? He is ignorant. What a crazy racist is that guy. Hate and racism is going to burn our lovely beloved safest country Canada. This is not right. Alarm. Whoever we are, we all must live together in peace and unity. Multiculturalism is not bad but Candian common culture must be adopted, respected and lived.

Don’t worry chap. As a Somali and an African we hate your kind too. Too bad you can’t do anything about our presence.

4:58 As an African, im not offended at all. Our brothers and sisters abroad have been painting a vividly bad image of us, but we do have a lot of intelligent and kind hearted people too. 4:59

Not all african are bad though ,i think i think he was a percimistic. But who am i to be surprised most white people hate black people just for existing as a South African i can tell when i see a white racist prick and most of the comment section agrees with him which is very disgusting.

They aren’t nearly as bad as african immigrants

this isn’t funny it’s racist. calling out issues doesn’t mean insulting all indians. canada isn’t a white country so asking only checking for white employees is wild. i’m african and that biker pissed me off. I'm probably smarter than him. some africans being illiterate doesn't make them stupid and indians don't eat poop. leaving what he said in the video without calling it out looks like you agree. every group has bad drivers. every group has bad people- like the biker guy. stop the stereotype. imagine judging all white people off the biker guy. that’s what you’re doing. it’s not fair.

So the worst thing Indians did was come to Brampton and drive bad? 😂 Poor white trash dude needs a cultural education about people from other county. Doesn't know shit about Indians or Africans. Does he not know that people can be Indian and Muslim as well?

Jews, Indians Muslims, Africans, all people Tyler likes to say are bad people and do stories on... what about the white people?.... i think I've realized Tyler might be racist?

3:59 I would want to know who paid for those statues. I bet it was the city from your money guys. Just a guess. Also I dont think that Indians are bad people, that we cant live with each other I respect them. What I dont respect is mass African migration like un EU, that is crazy stuff. I would rather live in a acity with 100000 Indians than 10000 Africans because they are a fk ticking bomb, you never know if they stab someone or rap*. Indians are working, Africans cant do anything other than crimes IDK how some people still dont see this, just look at any country that took them, its same everywhere. I live in Czech Republic and we have like 10% of Vietnamese people and you dont even know they are here, all of them work, they are very polite and fit into our society very well...

He said all Africans are terrible . Wow that’s a bad mindset

02:17 exactly...why European come...why African , Latino came or Asian came.... If I come into the country I'm okay but if someone else comes to the country it's bad... No this logic is not going to work

To begin .... stop Refugees from India, Africa, Haiti, Pakistan, and many other countries. Scrutinize them properly, select legit refugees, right now, a lot of bogus claims have been entered, for god forsaken reasons, highest refugee claims are from Africans countries and south America and Islamist countries. You gotta scrutiny these people, find out if there is legitimacy, find out if there is a value in accepting their claim, find out if they have skills or they are just entering for free loads! my point is , Good Immigrations is Welcome.....Bad Immigration is NOT !

There’s definitely an influx of Indians in Brampton that make a mess which needs to change lol but with all that talk about being dirty and living together.. how often have you ever come across a homeless Indian? Do we need less of them? Yes, but do a lot of them also grind their asses off to make it work? Yes. They only get berated because there’s a surge of them, and this would’ve been just as bad for Africans, Latinos and East asians if roles were reversed. “They stay to themselves” yeah it’s called a community and white people have always excluded minorities lmao so suck it up. We do need to deport a lot of these students who make a mess but lets not act like these Indians aren’t hustlers who do what it takes to make it work.

Just come here Legally and there is not a problem. Simple as that. You can stay and chances are that you will be taken of. Yes, honey, Africans will be the next deportations if they didn't come into OUR country legally. It's ILLEGALL to come into ANY country and stay without paperwork. ANY country would do the same so why is America being treated so badly for doing what is right and legal?

This is not right. You label all of them criminal right ? Human injustice on human. Its crazy how Trump hate people of colour especially africans. It will sure go down in history for bad.

Im so glad that united states of America I couldn't be so positive proud of Donald j Trump I'm truly impressed that you keep you're word you did more in justice in the one month than Joseph Biden did in his first month I don't know how long yall color folks though yall was going to last I knew yall was here illegal but couldn't talk English want us to talk you language please no more hair braided illegal hair salon if you want to be America so bad do things right and decent folks ? ❤❤❤ yes now it don't fell good hun talking about Mexican cross the border he got yall to African go back to yall 13 women's country boo ? ?

There were and are a lot of Africans driving for Uber and almsot got me in a bad crash. Stop letting people who cant drive or know the laws of the road in this country drive!

Why you have to put the picture of the African in such a poor dirty looking image. You all ways paint a bad picture of Africa people

As a South African Indian, I am frequently embarrassed by the raucous and immature behaviour of many tourists from India. South Africans have learnt discipline, Indians from the subcontinent appear to have missed this lesson. Apart from their clannish nature and biased view of other people of colour, Indians need to learn humility- not just preach it, but practice it. It may appear like a minor issue to you, but it certainly portrays you in bad light. The world has become an intolerant place. Having money doesn’t make you more tolerable. Drop the cocky attitudes and practice patience- it may just change the bitter taste Indian tourists have left in the mouths of many people around the globe.

It’s not just Indians ,Africans and Caribbean people as well , so pls don’t feel bad, and don’t forget that the crime rate has risen over some time also ,It’s sad for the people. But government make these changes at time

This driver isn't that bad. You're lucky you didn't have an African heritage delivery man, they really are slow at everything

I've lived here 6 years and can't wait to leave. Salaries are just enough to get by. I work full-time as an analyst and am looking for a minijob just to save money, which I already live quite modestly. It's easy to come across nasty unfriendly people, neighbors, service people, people in government agencies. I hate people staring in the most unfriendly manner or givng attitude for no reason other than they are nasty people. Don't get me wrong, there are nice people as well, but the bad experiences outweigh the good. Beauracracy is overbearing, personalities are underwhelming, the food scene is underwhelming, learning German is a big burden when you work a full-time job (and now I need a minijob too??). The country seems like it wants to diminish the human spirit and ambition. I definitely regret moving here. Many housing companies are over charging rent. I found out the company, Deutschewohnen, who owns my apartment was overcharging me by nearly double!! I had to go through a year long court procession to get them to lower it to the legal price which I won. And now they sent me a letter last month saying they are raising my rent, which is illegal and I have to go through ANOTHER court battle with them. Of course it is exhausting to try and find another apartment. Some people search up to a year. What a joke. And not to mention the dating scene. I've been single the entire 6 years and I'm quite an outgoing, friendly, loveable person. Dating Germans comes with own weird experiences and I refuse to give them a chance anymore, for my own mental health. If you're POC, it's not uncommon to come across strange sexualizations and general lack of understanding other's cultures. A couple years ago I was attacked by 8 men while walking home at night. I ended up in the hosopital and there was an investigation opened. The police asked me why they attacted me, which I didn't know since it was unprovoked. They just followed me for awhile, surrounded me and started beating me. The police said it was probably because I'm Asian. Meanwhile, I'm not even Asian!!! I'm Latino. ??‍♂This is the type of ignorance POC have to deal with in Germany. Also, I only have 1 German friend and all my other friends are immigrants (which I love) but this poses it's own frustrations because many people move here, then move away after a few years when they learn they can have a more fulfilling life elsewhere. So keeping long term day-to-day friends can be a challenge. The entire system is exhausting and there's not enough balance to bring joy to my life to want to stay. When I lived in NYC, an African American aquaintance had just moved there after living in Berlin for 8 years. She warned me not to move here because I will never feel I belong. I didn't listen. That was a big mistake. Germans can have Germany. I'll find my joy elsewhere. End of rant. haha

As a white Brazilian, I would say my experience was quite good (I've returned home less than 1 month ago). \n\nApart of some obvious jokes about the 7-1, I've never faced anyone who made me feel unwelcome or undesired, quite the opposite in many situations. Being of German descent certainly made things better. Other white Brazilians I've met told me they had similar experiences.\n\nUnfortunately, immigrants from other Global South countries and non-white Brazilians probably have very different experiences, for the worse. I've heard many unpleasant comments from my German friends and colleagues regarding turks, Arabs, africans and other immigrants from the South of the world. It's certainly a problem for many skilled workers who are not white and could contribute for the country, but they can't thanks to racism.\n\nIn my view, apart of racism, another great problem in Germany when it comes to foreign skilled workers is the lack of digitalization in the country and the bad Internet. Many jobs require good internet connection and digitalization, which are not always provided by the Germans , unlike virtually all the other European countries including much poorer ones. \n\nHaving said that, Germany has many good-hearted, kind and welcoming people (except the racists, of course), and a fantastic culture.

Don’t move to Canada, it’s very bad and there is a lot of discrimination, especially against Asian and African people. You will regret it

South African security has that bad reputation on how they treat security, or companions, of world dignitaries who attend rallies or conferences held in that country, once the also had an altercation with Putin's security that ended in punching and pushing.

i am in a college in a small town in Ontario and in my class we have 54 students and only 4 not including me are local students and the rest basically 90% are indian and the rest nepali from Philippines and some African countries and i moved here from usa with my family in 2015 and even up till 2019 canada was livable and now its not its impossible my plan is when i graduate i will move back to usa or some cheap country like Mexico Thailand and work remotely i am not against immigration but the path this country is going in accepting crazy amounts of student visa is wild also i feel some what bad for some of these students they get sold on a lie being canada is affordable they can find job easily and live comfortable but at the same time these students should do their research and its nothing but a infinite money maker for collages but at the same time they are kind of forced to do so to make money cause here in Ontario ford cut budgets for collages

In Edmonton in January there was a job fair for a security company at Kingsway mall. Quite easily there was over 150 people in the line hoping for an interview. Mostly East Indian and African men, some women. I feel bad for everyone coming here looking for a better life only to find out there are no jobs and no housing. Time for universal basic income. Just so you know I’m being sarcastic.

What goes around comes around. Bad karma. Canada is built on the genocide of its native inhabitants just like many colonized countries by Europeans and English. Usa, Australia, New Zealand, African countries, etc. Check the Chinese treatment for racism by Canada. That is why is Canada is screwed up.

How Smart is it's for Saudi Arabia to found Africa while they are talking bad about the Kingdom and saying African women are being treated badly and revive trillions in founds is bonkers when you could make trillions off the west and not lose money difference between business and when the Kingdom is founding something your losing money founding it's as doing business your making money ?

Canada is a country that is built on middle class where a large part of the population are within the same earning range. There are positives to this, less crime, there is not a huge disparity between rich and poor which makes for a more sane environment don’t get me wrong, we still have our crime rate. Now you can see that the professional programs are limited compared to other countries in the universities and highly competitive so that you don’t have so many professionals with high earning power thereby creating a huge disparity. On the other hand, these high earners don’t get a tax return, get any govt cheque, their kids don’t get huge amounts for OSAP instead, they get billed to pay back the govt and that’s how those of you complaining now where able to get govt cheques when you just relocated, support low income homes and newly landed immigrants. There’s free health, good Ammenities, snow is cleared, the roads are salted and de iced, free Education, govt loans and school loans that’s where your tax money goes to. Everyone has an accent that’s your identity why will you feel somehow or intimidated when you are told you have an accent that’s being timid say yes I have an accent it’s African or Caribbean etc. About racism it’s rare never experienced it that’s not saying it doesn’t happen but am gonna call you out if it’s obvious I have been profiled. Yes the weather is harsh did you not look at your map before relocating ?? In all most of these complaints are individual experiences so I won’t invalidate it but don’t trash what you gained from. Retraining and certification is a must especially when you are coming from a certain country and it’s not a bad idea. Am in healthcare and retraining is a must if you didn’t school here cos it’s entirely different talk about work ethics, equipments, software, differentiation in policies, health laws and malpractice laws.\nLook at the brighter side of life and stop complaining migration has its pros and cons position yourself in a place to have a good life, go back to school, get certified, keep retraining and adding value to your certificate.

I believe Canada is way better than most Arab and African country , I have lived in Saudi Arabia unfortunately it was very bad experience no respect for African

South Africa. Not a Muslim country but you can freely practice Islam. Mosques all over with athaan being called out loud. Salaah facilities almost everywhere including malls. Halaal food and meat found everwhere and is easily accessible. The muslim communities are very welcoming as well. And South Africans are very freindly.Many islamic schools and after programmes and most importantly we don't support Isreal. We are in full support of a free Palestine. Our winters are for about 4 months of the year and not as bad as Canada( i think) and the summers are great. We might be at the bottom of Africa but we have eveything and anything you can think of. You more then welcome to contact me privately if you have further question. Hopes this helps and wishing you luck for the future.

0:37 She’s African America based on her accent and attitude. I live in Winnipeg and discrimination here is basically non-existent and no I’m not African America but I really doubt Edmonton is that bad.

Africans have been in America way before the age of technology...which we are in now. God Almighty well help us survive. Plus u live in the suburbs.....move to the city my friend......that will be different too. Nothing in life is constant but change. So if you don't like it move, but it's not that bad....ppl work alot just to survive the cost of living is different in America and so are the laws.

Thnx Lyn u really open my eyes I was curious to travel abroad for work but after watching your video I can see how hard other fellow Africans are going through its really bad

The Truth is the developed countries have lots of opportunities to offer only if you go with the right intention. The problem with we Africans we like short cuts in everything. If you go to Canada as a tourist or visitors Visa and then you end up doing refugee status think you smart jokes will be on you. Let's talk with people who have gone to canada with PR or work visa and tell us their experience. Then we will know if moving to Canada is a good or bad idea.

I’m a Kenyan American and this is my two cents….Moving abroad for better opportunities is actually not a bad idea but people need to understand that you need the right papers and an actual skill to make it….I’ve lived in Europe, America and the Middle East over the years, the hard pill to swallow is all this places will give you a job depending on the kind of passport you carry. I’ve had the same skill and the minute I got my naturalization and finally carry an American passport…there are job offers all over. My African peeps get yourself a good skill and become very good at it….that will get your foot through the door

They are like Africans They don't develop their own countries and go to America and start talking bad things about America that they discriminate them when they went there by their own will

Go to a Scandinavian country and see how you'll be treated there. Smh. There is a huge Nigerian community in Ontario and other parts of Ontario. All I ever hear is complaints from refugees and immigrants. Meanwhile you guys are treated better than ppl who have been here 40 years or more. As well as Canadians who are actually born here. When Caribbean ppl came here 40 years ago they had it really hard. Nigerians and others don't. If it's so bad here for you then go somewhere else. African ppl and other groups are handed a lot when they come here. If I go to live in Nigeria for example will I get any help whatsoever from you're govt? Let's be honest. No I won't

As an older person who migrated decades ago after protesting in my old country, I encourage young people below 45 to FIGHT for your countries. Fight bad goverments. 7 billion people on the planet cannot move to the few western countries that seem to work and appear attractive on the surface, it’s not possible. The taxpayers in those countries are feeling it. Look at the folks sleeping on the floor in NY! The homeless citizens don’t have places to sleep but politicians are lodging new border crossing migrants in hotels at taxpayers expense, creating resentment! \n\nFight those oppressing you in your countries. Black America “fought” to eliminate Jim Crow so we can even move here. Black America and the White allies who struggled for civil rights ARE the reason the west has even been tolerant of the amount of immigration in the last 40 years! \n\nThere is no peace without a fight… even after the civil rights fights including the million man March 60 years ago? by MLK, the struggle against racism continues. \n\nHe left because of his children but will find out in 25 years time that they will want to connect with their roots even after succeeding in the West. \n\nYoung folks, take African, Latin American, Caribbean and Asian countries back from oppressive greedy corrupt rulers to reduce the need to leave our places of birth. I “fought” oppressive corrupt regimes with other like minded folks when I was younger before leaving! I wish we were more that were interested in protesting! Now folks are giving up without a serious protest, distracted by entertainment and the illusion of utopian countries which is not true. They find out too late! \n\nWestern politicians and governments need to stop cooperating with oppressive governments in these areas if they truly want to tackle immigration. Freeze their stolen loot like we did to the Russian oligarchs, force them to return the loot into their various economies and create good middle class jobs! \n\nThe west works because most work is assembly line in nature, glorifies slavery. A doctor has a target of about 15 to 20 patients to see per day and rushes you out of his office because the corporation he works for only cares about money and KPIs! You really aren’t allowed to interact with patients and provide personalized service. A pharmacist has to fill anything between 200 to 350 prescriptions, give a certain number of immunizations and see a certain No of patients per day. There is no time for niceties! A corporate professional May work remotely but has to deliver on so many projects he is up till 10pm and only gets up to eat. We have beautiful homes, drive nice cars etc but MUST work like the clock in an assembly line fashion! Most of us pay so much of our income as taxes we end up with less than 70% as paychecks! Things aren’t always what they seem!

This guy wanted to import his wicked african ways to canada, it’s a no no, as doctor you are not there to gossip with your patients, a psychiatrist is there for that. Go back to Nigeria if you don’t like Canada instead of talking bad

I told people many times Africa is the best place to live if not the bad leadership that erupt Africa continent we have everything you are looking for under this planet if everything is programming African can feed the world simple

If it is so bad there why are they still there. Africans talk to much discouraging the youth en everybody not to come to where they are. They will never come home but be talking shit.

From all this talk and everything money is what is needed, those who are well to do will complain but for those who are struggling and want to move for greener pastures i think they should as someone in the united States I agree it hard but the opportunities are limitless, even with the discrimination, inflation and all i am able to live a comfortable life and provide for my siblings, and we talk about discrimination even among us Africans we have tribalism, we prefer our tribe than others so lets not just make it as if abroad is the only place discrimination occurs, in all i think its your choice everything has its good and bad , i am grateful for my life so i am not going to complain, good luck to anyone travelling abroad ,

THIS IS SEATTLE . Literally even Africans don’t even like African Americans ? it’s bad man .

I’ve seen African countries, they aren’t exactly vacation destinations. And plus I’ve heard black Africans don’t like black Americans. Why don’t you move to an African country of America is so bad for you to live in?

Paying taxes in a government that is working than the one that is not working isn't bad because in most African countries mostly Nigeria most people pay taxes without seeing the Results of what they pay
