As someone who was born and raised in the Middle East and identifies as an atheist, I have a deep understanding of the motivations and mindsets of people from the region who choose to migrate to Europe. In the 1970s and 1980s, many who fled to Europe were doing so for genuine political reasons. They were escaping oppressive regimes, whether Islamic or dictatorial, often because their beliefs as non-Muslims, socialists, or leftists put them in danger.\n\nHowever, since the 2000s, the motivations for migration have shifted. Today, many people from the region come to Europe not primarily in search of safety or to embrace a European way of life, but rather to take advantage of the social benefits that European countries offer. Unfortunately, many of these individuals support the same Islamic regimes or ideologies that people fled from in the past.\n\nIntegration into European society is often challenging, particularly when there is little incentive to learn the local language or culture. For some, the focus is on increasing family size to maximize the financial benefits provided by the state. This explains why it's common to see families with six to nine children in these communities. The goal for many is not to seek safety or assimilate into European society, but to live comfortably on the benefits available in countries like Germany and Sweden.\n\nTo address this issue, I believe Europe needs to reconsider its approach to handling migration. One potential solution could be to build safe cities in North Africa, where people can find refuge and work without necessarily relocating to Europe. This would provide a secure environment and opportunities for those in need, without overburdening European countries. The focus should be on creating conditions where people migrate for genuine safety and the chance to contribute to society, rather than primarily for the financial benefits.\n\nIf people are allowed to choose where they want to live, they will naturally demand the best possible conditions and benefits. However, if authorities take the lead in deciding where migrants should be relocated, it would likely reduce the risks associated with illegal immigration. By guiding people to safe and sustainable locations rather than letting them dictate their destination, we could decrease the incentives for dangerous and unauthorized migration routes. This approach would help manage resources more effectively and ensure that migration serves both the needs of those seeking refuge and the capacity of host countries.

The entire world needs to be a safe haven, NOT Western nations ONLY. Giving people outlets delays CHANGING the nations that these immigrants come from. Those nations need rapid and massive introduction of democracy, capitalism, rule of law (Western law), freedom of speech, free mass education, freedom. It's clear that the mass of humanity chooses this option. Giving them outlets instead of demanding that their nations CHANGE delays world progress. Anyone who truly believes in helping those nations would be focused on plans to CHANGE those nations. No excuses for further delay! What taxpayers dish out to support ONE immigrant could educate several children for a year or MORE in their own nations, could help support adult education, entrepreneurship, and more. CHANGE THOSE NATIONS.

I know, what I am about to say isn't easy to swallow. Because I also understand how prevailing sentiments of fear are, when it's easier to blame another group for our shortcomings. Problem is we don't get to choose who comes into Canada, but we are perfectly accountable for whom we vote. Who we vote responsible in the end for policies that make or break a Country. They draft 5-10-20 years road maps for a Country's growth, the trace demographic's trend, births, jobs creations etc etc. They are responsible to understand Economics factors and how they are interwoven into Global trenches. Furthermore they are responsible to manage money budget and spending but above all control waste. I mean Canada became an Global Oil dominator second only to Saudi and we blame migrants? Sounds to me we should kick someone's teeth in, but that ain't my neighbour Cheng or Abhuoul. BTW I was born in the late 70's from Italian migrants, came back again in 95. I left a dead Canada in early 2000 and never looked back.

These people choose Islam and sharia law and everything that comes with it.thats exactly why their countrys are the way they are, exactly why they're in the position they're in and despite the consequences of their choices,they keep choosing Islam and even demanding sharia law within the new nations that take them in, just turning the new countrys that take them in into the same mess that they're running from.so the ultimate problem is they're not learning the lesson because 1 they're not ready to learn it yet and 2 western nations keep saving them from it.the lesson is if thay feel that sharia law is so great compared to democracy then they should be forced to stay right there in it.they made they're sharia law bed now they should lay in it

I think all international air crew should be required to have vias's just like everyone else (passengers) are required to have visa's. The Crew can still claim refugee status if they choose, but at least they were vetted first!!

This is why as a small landlord, I have to discriminate when choosing a potential tenant. Too much at stake.

Also if he doesn't want Her as a tenant anymore. He has the option to choose to take her life and in that instance. He wouldn't have her as a tenant anymore. No, saying it's a good idea. I'm just saying it's an option.

Sorry if you rent someone’s place and take advantage of the situation we’ll try to make other arrangements sorry . She wants to live in condo and you choose not to pay the rent . renters are taking advantage hope this is a learning lessons to owners .

Your government simply hands over citizenship to illegal immigrants for a vote bank. Maybe you should start by choosing someone wise, while you are still in majority, which under current circumstances isn’t gonna be for long?‍↕️??

Easy answer: we have housing- we dont have AFFORDABLE housing... blaming the housing crisis on migrants instead of taking responsibility for their failures as politicians who have not kept up on infrastructure and then baiting us against each other so we dont blame the actual problem. Banks raise the cost of mortgages, which in turn raises rentals. This is not the fault of ppl who have had no say in our systems as they just got here, they didnt choose when they're approved to come n work n live in Canada.

It's a Canadian tragedy that immigrants are homeless in Toronto and smaller communities are begging for an influx of people. There should be an incentive for immigrants to choose to bring their talents to rural Canada and form a new community away from their original homeland. This is how it was when my grandparents came to the prairies, a German community flourished.

Can i choose morethan 5 years experience while filling the form meanwhile i put only latest Job experience which is 4 years but i actually have more than 5 years experience choosed in the form.

I agree as a canadian canada is becoming too expensive to live in, a lot of people are choosing to leave. The gouv should make sure the immigrants who came do not go back as their countries are now better than canada

UK is broken and King Charles is MIA. USA is broken and Trump can't fix it. BRICS is the alternative. Choose wisely.

RFK jr has been at several border locations, these are people from all countries. Good and bad people. We pay their tickets for them to go where they choose. In the South they just walk through the unfinished wall and construction supplies that were just left when Biden/ Kamala got into office and halted the construction. It is a disaster at all borders it looks like.

Build cities only for migrants around the world and provide them options to choose and stop over throwing their governments and creating 3 world !

This isn’t totally accurate, and comparing Canada to the US is like comparing apples to oranges, a more apt comparison would be Canada and Australia (similar government structure, similar population, similar economy) unlike the us that has 8x our population and is the richest country in the world lol. \n\nThat being said the problems with the Canadian economy are pretty straightforward imo, for housing it’s simple, the Canadian government has invested heavily into the real estate market with things like the Canada pension plan being largely invested into the CPP. There is also a huge amount of people who have banked their retirement on the value of their home, for the most part these are blue collar workers. These two things combined have created a huge problem for the government, it basically has to choose between fixing the worsening housing crisis and in the process wipe out the savings and retirement accounts of millions of Canadians or let the problem get worse and worse until something boils over. This problem is also being compounded by the increasing number of international students being misled into coming here, they are being promised world class education but are receiving bogus diplomas from what are essentially sham colleges (thanks Ford). \n\nWhen looking at the competition in the country it’s a more complicated problem than people like to admit, in order to not become a client state of the US we have to place stronger protections on our industries and media, this insures that Canadian money stays within the Canadian market but has the drawback of discouraging competition. Now if you ask me the solution to this is to nationalize large industries that are being controlled by large oligopolies who unnecessarily manipulate the price of goods like Bell, Rogers, Loblaws, air Canada, petrol Canada, etc. By taking control of these industries the government could have better control of the price of goods and should result in better prices for consumers in turn we’re leaving some of the pressure placed on us by the cost of living crisis. This worked wonders for alcohol which in Ontario brings in 1.5 billion in revenue for the government each year, imagine how much internet, electricity, phone service and produce could bring in.

It’s just simple that Canadian want his change, he doesn’t have the exact amount, so he give him 20dollar and wants the remaining amount back, He also told that he chooses the option of cash in that app, he also have paid like this before. Yes he was abusing which makes him completely wrong, but if you compare it to India it happens even in India some people abuse all the time. So if this happens to Canada we can’t say him racist, as calling racist make the matter different

Did a little bit of research on this just last week. \nThe mayor, needs to step up, something fierce. \nThis is nonsense. It cannot be sustained. Our citizens will leave, and the new people coming, will turn America. \nWhere is his head at? \nSpeaking for me, they already destroyed the dryers where I do my clothes. I cannot afford people living here who choose to be ignorant. \nThey have no concept of community and don't wish to apparently. I could go further, I am choosing to keep my mouth shut. \n\nWhatever religion they have, I'd like to file a complaint with their god.

Thank God I left New York in 2003 21 years ago. And I’m blessed to live in Florida with one of the best governors who wants to keep our boys boys and our beautiful girls women. No LGBTQ crap down here. My points this is all done by the democratic s . Do not be brainwashed. Don’t be fooled anymore. Straighten your spine and choose to see the Republicans take care of the country and have the light of God behind them. It’s obvious God bless New York wake up vote trump 2024.

Canada brought in 1 million immigrants from Jan 2021- Dec 2023, a 2.5% population increase. That, would be the equivalent of 8.75 million immigrants coming across the southern border over 2 years. Canada doesn't have jobs or housing for many, there's no checks and balances to see who are criminals. America needs to close their borders because 13000 asylum seekers is only the beginning. More and more immigrants to Canada are finding out it's too expensive to live here, and they have no future here. That, will force them south before they choose to go back to where they came from.

As a Filipino watching the economy of USA from afar, I think that no other politician has shown significant concern to help its economy except for Trump. He's pretty bold and not scared to voice out issues that make the democrats uncomfortable. It is not for me to decide who others will vote. However, I see a leader in Trump and he's not afraid to fight back. It's only a matter of time for the Chinese to create its own microchips that are of novelty and prestige. Their economy is of course stagnant as of the moment because many foreign companies pulled out from China. Nevertheless, do you think it's going to be forever? They will cope and soon establish theirs given their population and government financial backing. Trump was right to put trade war against them to regulate foreign trade as it did with Japan. All countries will suffer when the dollar loses the international prestige. It is fastly losing it's international reputation as of these days. If this won't halt, imagine a future where the Chinese RMB will be the basis of international trade. You don't know the real plan of the Silk Road guys. Americans are conquerors and we have adjusted with their ways already. And, the Chinese are conquerors as well. Their goal is to really surpass the USA. The rise of China has benefited every ASEAN member, but greatly the former than the latter. We can adjust with their ways. However, America and Europe may not be that ready to adjust their ways for them should they surpass USA. The USA has become complacent and too liberal where individual rights, although important, have gone too far-fetched. This has created entitled individuals who think they own the world. Now, look at the Chinese. While most young Americans are busy dancing in TikTok and the likes of wasting time for entertainment, most young Chinese are studying hard and upskilling. Let's remember that America became great because of its inventions and extremely the nuclear power. Without great minds, minds that are feebled by drugs and misguided philosophies, a society will crumble. USA can use its weapons and influences against other countries, but can it hold the progress of it's rival economy for the rest of the years? You guys need a leader who is competitive and won't back down from a fight. As of these days, given only two political candidates to choose for presidency, I dare say that Trump has a higher bidding for the goodness of USA. Of course he wasn't able to accomplish his plan before after you guys impeached him. How the hell can a leader complete its plan after being halted unprecedentedly amid his administration? Kamala Harris looks promising but not convincing. Aura, although unquantifiable, do speak something. Choose your leader and it will choose your fate. Let's hear what the two sides will share this upcoming debate. If I'm American, whoever wins that debate, wins my heart. As easy as that. You see, if someone can be defeated so easily in his or her country through debate, do you think that whoever that someone who wins will be able to compete globally? Think of the likes of Putin and Xi Jinping. Think of a leader who can communicate with them effectively. That's all for me. Thank you

Its just messed up literally. we choose security over our freedom and yet security isnt securing jack $#-+ we should just boycott for our freedom without the lasy ass sp called security

As a Canadian, this is good news when all the freeloaders are choosing NY instead of us. I wondered when it will dawn on NY voters the politicians are so generous and virtual signaling with their tax money. The cartels of course learn and react faster than any politicians.

The government needs someone to blame for the lack of money to spend on its actual people. They have choose the poor migrants to blame for not having enough to fix roads, public healthcare and everything else but the military in the USA. So why would they solve a problem to the excuse they have for having no money

Cash it's worth it to mention that Texas receives considerable federal money to deal with border problems, but chooses to pocket that money and bus migrants to sanctuary cities up north. Why don't you ever comment on that?

All these people should be sent to Jail for crossing the border illegally and breaking the law. We shouldn't show sympathies to these people who do not respect our laws. They are responsible for their own actions, no one asked them to do such a thing. If their families are dying from crossing the border then they are choosing to die. We don't work our ass off and pay taxes so our country can pay for these illegal immigrants. Feeling compassion for these people is like feeling compassion for blood sucking mosquitoes.

Count the Cost of open Borders 4+ more years. \nYour jobs, \nyour money, \nyour taxes paying for asylum?seekers \nfood, housing, $monthly stiped, free healthcare, free homeownership, & free college. \nFixing the problem for them is hiring more people to help get more migrants into the USA. \nThey choose 22+ million migrants to cross the Border. \nThey Disregard the value of your life. \nThey are about the use of you- not the care of you. \nCount the Cost of Open Borders for 4 more Years!

When you choose to be a sanctuary city and vote for it, this is what you get. It would be easier on the NY economy if those who wanted a sanctuary city would open their homes to room and board immigrants. Zero chance of that.

I would said that I choose when the NYC immigrants were Italians ? I like those mobsters better because the movies are dope

This again is why upstate and downstate New York needs to be divided into two separate states us upstate New Yorkers cannot continue to carry the financial burden of the mistakes that the downstate New York City folk are choosing to make! Now we have a lot of New York City folk moving to upstate New York and it is jacking the prices of our housing as well as everything else around us. They’re bringing their big money here in upstate New York and they’re screwing it up for all of us people who have lived here our whole lives.

NY Voters. It's time to admit that vote blue no matter who IS NOT working for you. Unless you like your services being cut for illegals, then keep voting for Dems who do not care about YOUR rights as taxpayers. BUT, if you do vote blue, STOP WHINING about it. You choose your own demise, it's on YOU to put up with it.

Funny how we're constantly told Canada is so much better than the States, and yet everyone still would choose to live in America than Canada.

In 2008, I had to choose if I wanted to remain in the US legally, or return to Europe. I am so glad I chose the latter. But I can see how for the Asian and Mexican migrants, the US might be an opportunity. So, New York offers free housing to migrants, while the US citizens can not afford rent. Good job, Murika!

THE CANADIAN BORDER HAS BEEN WIDE OPEN FOR DECADES. IT'S NOTHING NEW UNFORTUNATELY THE UNITED STATES CHOOSES NOT TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT

democrat choose this rather than make visa processing easier....Many applicants pay 300 bucks just for the interview...they have to provide bank statements..and many other things...YET most of them get rejected...So whats the agenda here Dems ? pro immigrant ? seriously?

Are you saying Muslims cannot become a part of Canadian society . You choose to separate yourself.

Choose your hard

I choose bc the Best

He choose to attack the group of women im sure there were Muslim men around but his anger was peaked by women lol

Apki ya video months old.. ha. It means ap 11 month phele canada gaye..thi tu apne just Canada ko kyun choose keya ? Ma'am ?

You made some good points. Canada protects everyone’s rights to say and live how they want. It’s refreshing to hear a rationale where people choose to pursue happiness elsewhere. Good luck to your family on your next adventure.

I say make all immigrants choose a winter sport to play for the first 3 years in the country. ???

Yeah I don’t care there is way to many Indians here now they don’t assimilate or even try too. But they are the ones getting all the help while men and women that served this country are being left to die in the streets. The liberal government has ruined this country to the point that most of us are just choosing it to have kids and just leave to the US

None of the Arab states want the Gazan people or ever did. You really think the Gazan people ever wanted to stay and especially now after choosing unwisely first with the PLO and now Hamas and (several other terrorists groups that many have never even heard of) the UN calls Political Parties. You're more then microdosing if you think they want to stay. Egypt has kept their heavily fortified border (much heavier than Israel's) closed tight only to allow a handful of severly wounded residents in only to street them asap afterwards. The arab states have always used the Gazans as political pawns for the last 75 years. Plenty of arabs, druids, africans, and others live in Israel and its truly a melting pot. Facts. This show of concern is phony by heads of Arab States has been performed over and over. The only ones that believe this propoganda are college students via Iran and its proxies online. Meanwhile all these gullible kids would be toast if they stepped foot in Gaza even before the current War against terrorism. They simply bring you up to the rooftops and push you. Too many read and listen to soundbites and trust any convenient source of fake news paid for by your sponsors in Tehran with US Dollars no less!

We are the most multicultural country. I really don’t like when people come here from other countries and try to change our country. Live your life, pray, worship where you want to worship, do whatever makes you happy but changing the way we live here will never work. You want Canada to be like what it’s like over in an Islamic country?? Absolutely not. You leave that country for a better life, Canada gives you that. I’m sorry you feel this way. I’m sorry you deal with so many horrible people treating you this way. You are amazing people and sympathize with you. Hope you’ll be happy wherever you choose to live. Safe travels❤

Every country has its own challenges. Choose your battles wisely. There is no comparison.

We are full for a few years, there's another 194 to choose from.

All the information is True and also valid for the UK, know the reality before moving to any country and choose wisely.
