Never had an issue with Indians until COVID. Now they're openly hated by everyone, especially by other Indians. They don't like this either

Tbh its alot more saturated than you would think, I live in B.C and do alot of uber deliveries, 2400 alone last year. Id say 70% of the people in houses, and some really nice houses are Indian. Also most fast food restaurants are run by indian managers and staff, I was in a KFC the other day that had 1 younger white male at the counter, and 5 punjab behind the counter. The workers were all yelling at eachother about orders in their language and the white guy looked so confused. English is the first language in Canada so it should be learned especially when it comes to a business context, does our government care tho? Nope.
Combines lived experience (Uber deliveries, workplace observations) with identity-based concerns about language use and government responsibility.

White dude, mid 30s, still stuck in Brampton.. I can't even watch this video to the end because my hearts racing, I'm pissed anytime I think of how my community was raped by packies. (while they laugh at us good Canadians) - The funny partt is, if we forced them out like UK is planning to do, they would crumble in a second, I grew up with indians who were born here, their families came the right way and assimilated and even THEY hate the over-immigration and pure indians coming influx.
Combines lived experience in Brampton with expressions of community harm and demographic anxiety, using personal background to validate anti-immigration sentiment.

Well Canada needs something ICE. I made sure to arrive here with PR, I had the requirement etc. I didnt use fake student visa and then expect to stay. These people do not add anything to society if they are not honest members of it.

Hate to say it, but bike guy is right. I work in a (genuinely) diverse area and African men are by far the worst customers. Incredibly condescending, interrupt me constantly, and if they have a wife/girlfriend with them, they're constantly berating her. I've found Indians are cheap but generally polite, the biggest problem is that there's just too damn many of them and they don't assimilate, so you become a stranger in your own hometown when they move in. I remember looking for a place to get takeout around my boyfriend's house and it was literally 90% Indian food, 10% pizza with butter chicken and tandoori toppings.
First-person account of workplace experiences with ethnic stereotyping and concerns about cultural assimilation and demographic change in neighborhoods.

I am so sorry my country has lost its way. I am so sorry this is happening. Most of us wanted peace and balance, and we did not want trump.

I was born there, my family quickly became unwelcome in a brown neighborhood. We moved away because of that. We refer to it as "Bramladesh" now.. The thing is, I don't blame these people for wanting to seek a better life. I do however blame them for turning the city into a flaming trashcan. We have enough skipthedishes and uber drivers.. we don't need another 500,000 of them.
User shares lived experience of being unwelcome in a neighborhood, criticizes immigrant economic roles (delivery/driving), and uses derogatory naming ('Bramladesh').
