So essentially 3 tiers of Indian come(Hamiltonian here who worked in the GTA for awhile) They got pumped in and don't like eachother and look down at the lower tiers ones. They won't even hire other Indians anymore since they have the options of only their type. They erased several industries at this point, most small business are forgien owned, Indian or middle eastern. They can't drive (just google India driving) theirs a couple feet of snow and they just floor it around sliding through intersections while playing candy crush or what ever Every business that is fast food place is almost exclusively Indian to the point the "white point game" isn't even playable. They buy up insane amounts of properties because they bring thier entire family on different visas and many just stay till they get deported as they bring that money home with them. Every student housing is filled with Indians, every one bedroom has 30 of them living in it. Most starter homes where cheap so they bought them to flip with thier combined money. Security sector is filled with them exclusively because it's the highest amount of money they can make here without any skills .(Most are 0 skilled). Schools all had to cut staff in half because when we cut funding and spots for people coming to our universitys they lost half thier income. Crime rate went way up. My city is really bad for human trafficking and aex trafficking. Many come to our city since it's far enough away to commit crimes. Many get 0 consequences because again.. Illegally overstaying a visa is deportation. Doug Ford literally gave everyone 200$ before an election...like how corrupt and garbage is this country. Now we have Indian only business that can't speak English, similar to the daycare issue. Job postings for specific races or language s only. Mind you everything just stated is also being done by the Arabs and Somalis and Nigerians. Many of these people coming here are "escaping dangerous situations" Wich means criminals who want to start again. Somehow these people with 0 resources have the money to buy million dollar properties 😂 Also don't forget, it's a hate crime to say or do many things about this and could land you in jail or worse. Much of Canada are college towns and those idiot kids want more
Extended critique combining personal observation with claims about labor market displacement, property speculation, housing density, and crime, primarily framed through economic and demographic concerns.

Even true claimants should not receive monthly income and benefits better than those of the regular working class in Canada. They should feel compelled to find jobs instead of living as parasites off the taxpayers.

Let’s go to a 90 year old general. What does this all meen. WTF. There taking Americans money. The tariff American goods. Period . It high school math. Hence. Canada’s goods are cheaper. People buy Canadian goods more. Get grandpa out of here. Push his wheel chair out. It’s high school. Common sense. We slapped the same tariffs on them . That’s it
Commenter explains tariff economics and argues the policy response is straightforward math, combining economic reasoning with criticism of leadership.

Westerners, aren't having children, because we can't afford to. The more immigrants that enter, makes it even more unaffordable for westerners it is to have. On top of that, the constant demonization of (predominantly) white people to hate the past, feminism, and queer theory being pushed, definitely doesn't help. I can't even go to a foodbank for a few basics, without a 3 hour wait from all the recent immigrants that don't speak English, and push their way thru lines
Links immigration to housing affordability and economic hardship for 'westerners,' combining economic grievance with demographic anxiety and identity concerns.
