Let me use this opportunity to bring awareness to the oppression of Tibetans. No, I am not talking about the Tibetans in China. I am talking about Tibetans in occupied South Tibet, which was annexed by India in 1951 and made a state by India in 1987 to become the so-called Arunachal Pradesh. South Tibet includes Tawang, birthplace of the Sixth Dalai Lama and home to a four-hundred-year-old Tibetan Monastery. The Tibetans in occupied South Tibet are fast becoming strangers in their own native homeland because the Indian government is settling Indians in the region to change the demographic structure of the area and trashing the place just like the Indians did in India or in Canada. The Indians like to mock them, calling them Chinese as a form of insult (sometimes using slurs such as the C* word or the M* word). Rape by Indians in occupied South Tibet is a major source of anger among the locals toward the thuggish Indian occupiers. Another thing is that India doesn't trust the locals and likes to accuse them of being Chinese spies if they don't display enough loyalty to the Indian occupier. This area is tightly controlled by India, with limited access to the outside world. In 2014, a Tibetan Chinese called Nido Tania went to Delhi and was beaten to death because he looked 'Chinese'. His case was hardly an isolated one. Northeasterners in India have for years endured racial hatred by the Indian people. They have held demonstrations in New Delhi, but not much has changed. On December 9, 2025, a Chinese-looking youth from the north-east Indian state was murdered by racist Indian thugs. The thugs mocked him with racist taunts like "CHINKI, MOMO, CHINESE," etc., and then the youth was mercilessly beaten to death. This is not the first nor will it be the last case of racism against the north eastern people living under New Delhi's oppression. No killer or rapist of the northeastern people has ever been brought to justice. The Indian political leadership does nothing more than produce hollow words of sympathy: "I AM VARY VARY SAARY!" There was not even a single word of support or remorse from the high priest of the Bar-Rat hindu empire: Modi. The greatest irony and shameless hypocrisy of India and Indians is that the murdered youth's father is serving in the Indian Border Security Force and deployed along the border with China. He is fighting against China for a country that is ready to kill him and his family for looking Chinese. Some years back, yet another rape case by Indian soldiers occurred in Bomdila, South Tibet. The local police detained the two suspects, and the Indian military, fearing that the two suspects would be lynched, stormed the police station, vandalized it, and rescued the two suspects. This leads to massive protests by the local people. Eventually, the unrest caught the attention of New Delhi, and India flew in the defense minister to Bomdila to make a show of force to suppress the protests. Today, South Tibet is restless, and India knows it. This is the reason a law called the AFSPA (Armed Forces Special Power Act) is imposed on South Tibet. AFSPA gives the state the power to detain or kill anyone with impunity. No due process is needed. AFSPA is imposed on areas India deems restless, such as South Tibet and Kashmir. It is a law meant to suppress dissent and instill fear among the populace. The Tibetans in occupied South Tibet are voiceless people because they are not the right kind of Tibetans, so their plight is ignored by the Western world. I have yet to hear from the Western media any concern for the human rights abuses of the Tibetans in occupied South Tibet by India. P.S. I am using the word Tibetan as an umbrella term to include the various Sino-Tibetan Burmese people (Monpa, Abotani (called Lhotba on the Chinese side),..etc. The Sixth Dalai Lama was a Monpa) in South Tibet. The Sixth Dalai Lama is known for his many love poems and romantic escapades outside the Potola Palace. Sadly, his hometown, Tawang, is now under India's occupation since 1951. The Tawang Monastery is the last major frontier monastery before the area merged into the tribal region. It historically enjoyed a close relation with the Beijing central government. Free South Tibet (so-called Arunachal Pradesh) from India.

The irony of these racist comments is incredible. Many in the US and Canada forget they are also descendants of migrants. If we applied this same logic, Native populations would have every right to say you 'messed up' their culture centuries ago.

Europeans conquered America (US & Canada) after killing off the original inhabitants, and now they call it their home. What an irony.

I have a SOLUTION... (it is not deportation). To some it may seem: "RRraa... Raa... RAAACCIIIISTTT!!!"🤪⬇ Ok so here is the Solution: ALL future Marital benefits are ZERO unless you marry 💍someone who's family origin is from 🍁Canada dating back to *PRIOR 1970. Yes that will include some white peoples. Everyone intermix OR ELSE 😡💵📉❕ There - I solved the issue.... and probably will be arrested for being a "race supremacist," for suggesting intermarriage😆Oh God the irony is INSANE ❗

The globalist WON... it is now IMPOSSIBLE for the global landmass formally known as "canada" to recover. These people will out breed us 4 to 1 AT LEAST. Even if the invasion was to be stopped IF the liberals lose in 4 years it's too late. The worlds second largest country will be occupied and owned by the worlds 1st and 2nd largest populations... india and china. The irony of "canada" which has worlds largest untapped resources of oil, natural gas, minerals, forestry, tourism being in the hands of INDIA AND CHINA is laughable. The liberals/ndp/globalist have zero foresight, literally zero! India and china will rape this land and it's people, they will drain Lake Louise just for lost coins. If the natives think they will abide by some land treaty they are kidding themselves. 10 MILLION invaders per YEAR is nothing for these 2 countries. CANADA IS DESTROYED, IT'S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME.

Oh the IRONY! If you aren't First Nations, you ARE an immigrant. Why don't you actually all make an effort to learn at least a few words in our languages; the ACTUAL languages of Our country 🙄. You can't be that dumb. I'm not trying to be harsh, but most of us speak our language and 1 or 2 languages from the European settlers here. It really suits everyone here to never bring Indigenous people into your conversations while you call it "Your country, your 'Canada', you culture". Everyone who's ancestors aren't from need to do better. It blows my mind how you come here and fight against each other while being immigrants yourselves. You demand assimilation from others while you yourselves aren't Indigenous, and don't make the slightest effort to assimilation to OUR culture. Complete hypocrites.🤣🤣🤣 If I were you, I'd be ashamed. I can't see myself ever going to someone else's country, living in it, let alone being born in it, and have the audacity to act and speak with that amount of utter continuous ignorance and disrespect the way most of the European settlers and other settlers/"Canadians" do. Do better before complaining about each other cause, you're no better and immigrants yourselves. Oh ya, and film Native Child in the background at 7:06, the place not First Nations operated known for stealing our children and getting tons of funding to line their pockets while almost all reserves have no clean drinking water, houses breaking down, unable to get work outside due to racist from all types of immigrants (yes, including European 'Canadians'), but putting a video of a European 'Canadian' talking about not being able to afford cable and her bills. Because these things are happening to European settlers/ 'Canadians', now it's finally a problem. The IRONY.

As an emmigrant who came to this country 15 years ago, I am astonished by the lack of knowledge this country has. This reason stands in empty education ( in an irony of life, the canadians call it one of the best on the word), and the belief Canada is a democracy. It is typically a fascist country that makes spurious elections because it is truly run by an establishment hidden as a secret society and in the surface is run as a mafia by small groups of interest ( corporations, professional order, injustice system, and emty shell politicians). The others ( the canadian people) they enjoy democracy 😂, high quality of life( really, just make a visit to a poor european country as Portugal, Greece ). The same goes for education, just oven degrees hot and not edible. Now Canadians learned that immigrant are taking their land and opportunities. You're lied, put under pot, and cheated by your democratic representatives. Try to fight, you'll be in a gulag (minus 15 Celsius only for some day) until the nobel prize candidates of uot and mcgill will put you democratically under tanax.

Look at what is happening. Europe is welcoming Canada into their trading block with open arms. Where is the US turning to? Russia. The irony is that Putin hates the West, always has , and he hates the US in particular. I agree with Clark. Trump’s getting played and he doesn’t even know it. He’s got a lot of $$ in Russian banks and is in Putin’s pocket. When are the Dems going to get loud and get rid of this guy? He is definitely compromised.

This corruptive clown lecturing others is the biggest irony in the world. But this biased channel and biased comment section is ready to show him as a hero, even when HE DESTROYED CANADA. But, sure, CNN, SURE. That's why your ratings have been in the tank lately. Keep it unbiased and report actual NEWS.

the irony of tariffs is that they devalue the profitability.\nSecond if the POTUS or VP EVER attempt to enter Canada, it is NOT going to go well for the President etc.\nThe Trump and Vance are persona non grata

The irony is that as an American, trump makes me want to move to Canada. Can I seek asylum in Canada on grounds of having a deranged fucking idiot as president?

I’m a 53 year old Canadian. I went to college on an athletic scholarship & lived there for 10 years after turned professional in my sport. Why, why, why - with all the problems going on in the world right now to tackle - why would you want to start a trade war with your closest trading partner & most loyal ally? Not to mention that your list of Allies is shrinking daily. This is not going to end well for either of us. \nI just arrived home from a trip to the grocery store - making sure nothing in my cart said “ made in the USA” on it due to the new tariffs that began today. \nThe irony is, many of the states where Trump won by the biggest margin, are the states that are going to get hit the hardest from Canadian retaliation tariffs ( Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Indiana, the Dakotas - just to name a few). A lot of farmers in those states are going to be hit extremely hard with the fertilizer tax. After Canada, the next 3 largest Potash producers are Russia, Belarus & China. So , good luck \nWhen the cost of fruit & vegetables skyrocket across the US. Maybe you’ll put a little more thought into your vote 4 years from now.

The irony is USA gets a bargain price on oil from Canada as an allie who always supported USA including supporting USA wars. A close friendship in fact family as many if not most Canadians have relatives that live in the USA. The selling of discounted oil to the USA helps the USA economically and the main reason why the USA buys more from Canada than Canada from USA but then complains they buy too much from Canada. Stop buying the discounted oil then, go buy the oil on the world market at a higher price and problem solved or Canada just raise the price of oil until they buy sufficient amount less that balances the trade. Old saying, be careful what you ask for?

The irony is, Canada will take measures to address the cost of living. The US will keep giving $$$$ to billionaires. Trump/ Republican's do not care about everyday people.

This guy said. Tariffs against Canada will only hurt Americans. Now. He was to slap tariffs on US . The irony.

The irony of POTUS saying that the current trade deal we have with both Canada and Mexico was terrible and the worst but was made and signed by him and his administration. In 2018 but ?? ??

Irony is the customer is from Jamaica living in Canada

A lot of negative comments.\nThe irony is that the educated students are the wrong focus to deport. They have something to offer. Instead Canada has allowed many unqualified immigrants giving them automatically PR status.

Such irony that many people are leaving the UK because of the same issue to live in Canada? People are leaving America and coming to Canada because of the same reason. Whilst Canadian are going to America for the same reasons? Yet no one is talking about the corporate buying homes leaving them empty for tax purposes. Yet no one talks about it.

Whoever talking against islam, they r just talking nonsense. The maximum economical benefits this non islamic world has taken from islamic states! Irony is that America and Saudi funded ISIS. Christan hindu jews chinese are much brutal.. How come they are much safer in US and Canada than India? He could be an Indian faking Pakistani because india borders with Pakistan and he could be ram chandan kalboshan who knows! Noone is stupidly burst out their terrorist plan neither do they reveal their id's wtf

Oh, the irony! On the one hand, the Underground Railroad workers risked threat of capture on discovery escaping out of America into Canada, - and the reality now of sneaking clandestinely in to the States for work under threat of deportation?

I’m not Muslim but I can understand some of these reasons why you’d want to leave Canada…Canadas not merely diverse anymore it’s diluted, money & bills culturalism is the real identity…it’s hard then ever to acquire personal wealth in the socialist nation. Still one of the cleanest & safest though…isolated crimes yes, bigoted & discriminatory somewhat but the irony is it’s mostly from the new immigrants that bring it from their own war torn etc countries. I don’t thing anybody loves the cold.

Why does this comment section look like you all are mad that there arent anymore white people in Canada? ....when the original Canadians were never white? LOL It's like the craziest irony

The irony is big chunk of the houses built in the US are by Canadian real estate developers. Aren't they not getting the same financial incentives in Canada as they are here?

The irony of it all, The European Catholic Church with there history of murderous conquering and colonialism in Canada. Karma is starting to serve.

The irony is that Biden made a deal with Canada to keep immigrants trying to get into Canada in the US

Canada using immigrants and international students to starve off a recession. Now JT realised his plan has backfired. Oh, the irony!

Canada has recently said the investigation to Kanishka bombing is still open and not concluded yet. One of the main accused Ripudaman Malik was welcomed with Red carpet in New Delhi by Raw. What an irony ??

Ummm, is this Canada or Europe? You nonces. The only ones who could say something like that without irony are First Nations. Jai Sri Hanuman! Jai Maa!

Irony to yeh hai ki even ki aise 1000 video bhi bna lo...\nStill people will choose to migrate canada kyunki yahan condition is even worse?

my family immigrated in the 1950s because they needed workers here and it was difficult to assimilate but they pretended to be canadian and had canadian children and it worked. but now i’m going back to their country and escaping canada since it is impossible to live here now. the irony ??

The irony of all this is that Canada needs immigrants to fill the job market shortages.

The irony is, all the migrants leave within a few years because Canada sucks that much. I'm Canadian.

Irony is all these people who are getting interviewed are first and second generation immigrants as well. Due to the inbuild hate towards other immigrants you would only get one answer which is there are too many. One thing that no one seems to be understanding is excessive immigration was never a problem since Canada is so big that by the pace it's going and with the ageing population it still needs immigration to keep our economy afloat. Since the elections are coming and Liberals know they ain't coming back, this is just a one last hope for them to bring this sensitive topic because they know people would unite since the majority of people in here already have a hate towards immigrants just to win back the votes. It's the governments fault for not being able to keep up with the necessary housing and healthcare needed for the people. You all should be protesting against the government for sending money for the war and giving away in the name of philanthropy. And I don't understand why True North spread hates all over instead of uniting people. And by the way I am a Canadian citizen and I strongly support the immigration big time.

Certain irony in this fear of Indians taking Canada away from white people

Irony of Canada: Already stressed by immigration.\n\nMeanwhile Trudeau: ‘we need more immigrants to improve our economy’

India does scam called to Canada to rob our elders. We scam their kids into shurfdom. There is a bit of irony going on here.

Housing in the English world ( Canada, Australia, Ireland, England ) has demonstrated the failures of a market led housing. The irony is not only will this get worse the little non market housing avaliable its disappearing. Public housing has been non existent since the 80s. Canadians themselves are nimbys because they themselves want those high property values for their retirement. The irony of this is that any reduction will result in economic calamity and no political parth wants that

what a Racist Program, the people that cry about Canada, Sole it from the Native Indians,\nSo Allah replaced them with EAST INDIANS ... SEE THE IRONY???

Based! Free Canada and Italy from these people\n\nCanada And Italy belong to their people only! The irony is that Indians cry for Muslim immigrants from Bangladesh Afghanistan and Other countries!

The irony is Canada is not even in the top 10 of the worst off countries.

Irony to see BBC doing news on Canada ?. Clear out the log in your eyes first?

The irony of the situation is Canadians are somehow thinking it’s the student’s fault for coming to Canada. Your government is literally scamming students and it’s really getting out of hand.

Great video. Canada is now completely unaffordable. The irony is people come to Canada for a better life and a higher standard of living. That Canada is gone.

The irony of you immigrants complaining about Canada... The cost of living is what it is because of YOU. The rent and real estate prices are where they are because of YOU. The job prospects are what they are because of YOU. The fractured social landscape and destruction of traditional Canada happened because of YOU. Canada was doing just fine until everyone starting treating it like a life raft for all the countries of the world that can't take care of themselves.

Oh the f'ing irony of the dreaming immigrant and the current state of Canada.

His advice also works the other way as well: moving from 1st world to developing country as a middle aged professional. If you're established in Canada or USA and move to Nigeria (a lot of tried it), you will start from many levels down regardless of your CV and the salary in Nigeria is not enough to sustain your family relative to their comfort level in USA/Canada. The irony is the same reason why he moved & is enduring the situation in Canada is a same reason why USA & Canada based transplants endured harsher conditions on ground in Nigeria: they feel it's in the best interest of their children and therefore worthwhile in the interim. Once the goal is met, they return back to their 'home base'. Hence, his situation is not the classic Japa - where the vast majority folks need to move by any means necessary to survive due to hardship in naija. His advice works for those who are doing relatively ok in naija [net positive monthly cashflow upper middle class individuals]. The average Nigerian who is suffering will manage anyhow situation in Canada compared to the daily hardship on ground in Naija.

I am from Cameroon, I am an assistant télécommunications engineer since 2016. I had the grace to be recruited by the end of my final year by a foreign company BUT, they are using holes in our labor law in Cameroon. The fact is for 6 years now, I am a temporary worker with monthly renewable contracts even though I am working at the same position for 6 years . The irony being, I barely make 500 usd per month, no salary increase for 5 years and with my wife and kid we can just afford to live day by days. No way for me to save some money. I made the maths: even if I work as a janitor in Canada, I can at least same some money for my child future. I am planning to move to Canada. It will always be better than the Bullshit I am through in my own country

They want to enjoy the infrastructure, education, security in Canada without putting in the requisite hard work that make those things possible! \nThey want to behave like they do in Nigeria where a Doctor employed in a Teaching hospital will not report for work or report late and still take his full salary home at the end of the month. They divert patients to their private clinics and rip them off. And they won't even pay tax! \nCanada is so hard yet he wants to get a Canadian citizenship for himself and children, what an irony!\nWhy did he leave all the good life in Nigeria to relocate in the first place?why?

All of these points are subjective. I think the point system you used and the subjects you talked about are biased. I would have given the USA a point for innovation and job opportunity. There is more opportunities, because more companies choose the USA. We have a higher population so even thought there is more job opportunities in the USA, it is also very competitive. Your video gave a point to Canada for vacation and maternity leave rather than innovation and job opportunities. A lawyer in the USA has a better chance of practicing law than a Canadian lawyer. You gave a point to Canada for healthcare because of life expectancy. However I’d still give a point to the USA for healthcare. The life expectancy is a separate subject. The life expectancy is lower in the USA because of what we eat here. I would give a point to Canada for healthier food. In the USA fatty diet with sugary sweets is common here.\n\nThe video was really pros and cons for liberals. As an American, I could make a list that is biased towards the USA. It was a very informative video, I just think the irony of you talking about political bias while making a biased video was comical. I definitely don’t want to move to Canada after this?. If you are liberal in the USA and can handle the cold then Canada is sounds amazing. If you’re a liberal, but can’t handle the cold, the west coast of the U.S. might be a better option than Canada. \n\nI think all of those pros for Canada is because they are in Canada. It’s great that those things work for Canadians and so many immigrants into Canada!\n\nAlso, Canada can have 1000 points for personal hygiene. I can’t stand people not taking their shoes off in my house even though I have a sign on my door that says, “please take off your shoes”. I have OCD so I am biased on that subject ?.
