The guy that's calling India a shithole looks homeless. If Canada is so great, why couldn't he find a place to live and get a job ?

If you want to move to another country fine, but please don’t turn that new country into what you just moved from. I mean, didn’t you move to escape that environment in the first place?

Everyone knows what’s being done is wrong. The only difference is whether you’re on the take, or one of the victims. Truly disgusting what’s happening in our country.

boo hoo, cry me a river. The stupid polish plumber walking around half naked complaining about folks in their own home is peak racism. Pretty much set the tone for the video. Who cares ? White people took over large swathes of land everywhere and killed the natives. Forget being America's 51st state, you're already India's 29th.
Counters perceived racism by invoking historical injustices and moral arguments about colonialism and hypocrisy.

Have you never seen any progressive and good side of the Indians' contribution?? I think you should go listen to P.M Macron's speech in IT summit that happened recently in India.
Just because of one ill-literate stupid person who ate the cow-dung doesn't represent the whole of India. There are some stupid people in every country. Its a sensible and a resonable think to understand such realities.
Before you talk about India please read and have some knowledge about each state then you'll understand each state is very different and a country by itself. Considering that all Indians are bad is not smart or nice.
Looks like you are expecting some changes, ok, then try and work on for that rather than hating Indians as a whole.
Appeals to fairness and understanding, arguing against stereotyping Indians and advocating for nuanced perspective on cultural diversity.

I still don't see the problem.
No one's persecuting locals or trying to impose Shariah law Islamism?
Sans the assholes, generally they're productive, tax paying citizens, who do things differently.
Regardless, they add billions of dollars to the economy. If they were all "not working" like that bald guy said, the city wouldn't be as productive or be as rich or as sprawling.
Is it too much immigration all at the same time, yeah but locals would have problem with non-white people even if there was litte immigration.
Stop the immigration numbers and disgruntled whites would still have an issue with Brampton despite majority white cities the same size as Brampton not being as productive, rapidly facing demographic and economic decline.
Majority of the accusations the white people made, were not even proven in the video. I mean ok I guess.
Defends immigrants on ethical grounds (no persecution, productive citizens), economic contribution, and critiques underlying racial bias in anti-immigration sentiment.
