I used to work for a middle eastern airline and no joke 90% of the people flying to Toronto were from India, now I know where they all went! Thanks Tyler

As a person from India, I feel ashamed to know that large numbers of Indians are involved in fraudulent document submissions. Student visas, LMIA , PNPs , and even intra company transfers are widely misused.

When we were young Brampton was White as snow but our Dentist was Indian. His name was Dr. Mohan Mehta and he didn't use any freezing. Ouch!

I grew up with lots of ukrainian and other immigrants, and on the whole, they are okay. Current ukrainian refugees are, I have noticed, a bit confused owing I think to the unfortunate circumstances which caused them to relocate. I suspect a lot will repatriate themselves when the war ends. I've encoutered many immigrants over the years and I have noticed, that in the last 20 years or so that a disturbing number of refugees are bogus exploitative jerks who wound up here because they weren't welcome where they came from because of their own character flws.
Extended first-person account of lived experience with immigrants over decades, comparing past and recent immigrant cohorts.

My cousin passed away last week waiting for his visa. He was a young hardworking engineer waiting to get into this country. He was a fluent speaker in English who understood politics in Canada, community, and family. He had a full ride PHd thesis scholarship from universities like University of Alberta, Concordia, and Queens in blockchain technology. And my country lets in these delinquent low life criminals who destroy the fabric of society. May God rest his soul.

I was unemployed for a short period of time at Maple Lodge Farm and another packing company and all workers were Indians and they were rude people. These companies should be raided by the police and they will catch a lot of students hiding there. The immigration should open a site where citizens or legal residents can report these people. That would make it eadier for Canada to track the illegals. But the important thing is stop the incoming students and the refugees.
Begins with personal employment experience, then escalates to unverified claims about illegal workers and calls for reporting mechanisms and policy changes.

I'm a white guy born in Mississauga just south of Brampton. I've been living in a tent for over two months.

Shares lived experience of homelessness and perceived discrimination, contrasting personal hardship against narratives about immigrant integration and accusations of racism.

British immigrant here in Brampton, I wish I could find a doctor who speaks English first, regardless of the colour of their skin.
