It is disheartening to see a long and beneficial relationship deteriorate and without any clear benefits anywhere. However, the media here in Sweden portrays your nation as filled with good persons uniting and supporting of one another. From the bottom of my heart, I truly wish you the very best, and I will support if any opportunity appears.

Trudont is a strait nazi.\nHe literally closed Canadians bank accounts due to choice and religion. \n\nTrudont is acting like he didn't know about teriffs....Trump announced them last week.\n\nAs an American tax payers! Id rather do without than to be threatened by a nazi.\n? to Trudont...

Trump cannot get away with all this without PUNISHMENT!!!!

FUCK AMERICA ITS A BLESSING IN DISGUISE!!! old allies will be better without them dictating our proud nations that love and care about each other....without America the real west free world nations will excel without their greed

The side effect of pushing people and countries away is that they learn to live without you

You mention that Americans are 30% more expensive than Canadians but you dont mention that the US is far more unequal with a Gini coefficient of 0.41 vs 0.35 in Canada. Now there is also a known issue with using GDP data to calculate productivity and that is that in sme countries the labor of GDP is much lower than in others. You then end up with Irish productivity being the second highest in the world only because most large US corporations operating in the EU register there to pay lower taxes but most of that revenue is just on paper for Ireland. or with Guyana whose oil and mining revenue makes it productivity equal to that of the US. Maybe that is the case, but is it? and if so why is the average wage in Guyana so much lower? so choosing only one specific stat can make any point of view seem true. you have to look at the bigger picture.\nnow the issue is Canada has been getting more unequal but it is still much better than the US. so what it means is that the higher worker productivity in the US benefits corporations and billionaires far more than it benefits the average American. now if we compare cost of living say between NYC and Toronto:\nCost of Living in Toronto is 37.5% lower than in New York, NY (without rent) \nCost of Living Including Rent in Toronto is 47.1% lower than in New York, NY \nRent Prices in Toronto are 59.2% lower than in New York, NY \nRestaurant Prices in Toronto are 34.5% lower than in New York, NY \nGroceries Prices in Toronto are 33.0% lower than in New York, NY \nLocal Purchasing Power in Toronto is 7.2% higher than in New York, NY \nand this is similar when comparing almost all large Canadian cities with a comparable US one. And whilst housing and NIMBYIsm is real issue you have very similar issues in the US which also has almost no mix zoning. But throw in safety nets and go ask Canadians if they want to change for the US system. I doubt most will. Sure some want things to change but some assuming everyone wants an ultra capitalistic society. most are ok with less growth ut better balanced growth (the exact opposite of the boom and bust US model)

One of the lessons that Canada could learn from Singapore is the implementation of a 99-year ownership lease. In societies with high home owner occupancy, it's difficult to introduce property cooling measures without political pushback from majoritarian home owners. A limited term lease allows for renewal within the property market, allowing new entrants and preventing accrual of property capital wealth.

Canada, our 51st State...without Quebec.

As a home owner (with a mortgage) and nearing retirement, my first reaction is that I want housing prices to remain high so I can get the most from my house when I downsize. \nHowever, my house sale is so I can downsize into a home that I can buy outright with the money I get from selling my bigger current house. If my house value goes down, I would be OK as long as the price that I would pay from a smaller home also goes down. I want to live in a home that would have no mortgage. I will only get the minimum income in retirement so I need to be in a home without a mortgage payment, if at all possible.

For 2 decades Canadian cities have had a condo building boom (for non-North Americans, a condo(minium) is a building built by developers with the intent of selling off the apartments individually, instead of the whole building being one large rental property - that's a rental building) with the rather strange peculiarity that the bast majority of those condos are small - studios, one bedroom and one bedroom + den (in North American real estate linguo, a den is a small room without a window). There are some two bedroom apartments, and three+ bedroom apartments are very rare. One of the reasons for this is a general mindset that apartments are for singles, young childless couples and retired empty-nesters, while families are supposed to live in a house of their own. Another reason is that some archaic building codes restrict the type of apartments developers can fit in a building. The result of this is that in a country which certainly does not lack space, there are now tons of small apartments (the demand for which has been going down in many areas), but it's too expensive to afford a larger space to buy (whether a house or one of those rare large apartments) once you want to start a family.

fk houses, they steal right from your bank accounts now. without remorse.

Brain drain is definitely a big issue. I heard from someone that if you're a US citizen you are required to pay US taxes even if you don't live there and honestly I kind of wish Canada would do the same. If this country raised you and educated you and gave you all the opportunities you've had in your life thus far, you shouldn't get to just up and leave without paying anything back.

I love how America is this guys favorite economy but half their people can't afford a $500 financial setback without going into debt

U wete saying canada wont survive without indian students thryre very important for canadian economy

Why can't Marc speak properly?\n\nCan he not form one cohesive sentence without having to pause?\n\nImagine how refreshing it'll be to have competent individuals who actually know what they're doing/talking about running the show.

Work camp for illegals, and they can pay for ALL the damage they do.\nEven though it will be their first JOB. EVER. It will be a good learning lesson.\nLearn how to make a living without committing a crime, in USA.

Who wouldn't come here when you have an open invitation from the President? It's almost unbelievable that Biden made it four years without being axed in the head

Name ONE country beside the U.S. that would allow this to happen without firing a shot?

Without a mandate, without being duly elected the government is pushing a severe worlds highest immigration rate policy along with ethnic cleansing/bashing of anglos to create divisions and gain support for itself

Stop promoting this nonsense. This man is a great pilot. Decorated as such. There is no evidence of what kind of command climate surrounded him. Without that data, any argument is invalid…

They should have repercussions for those who overstay their visa without communication to immigration.

You blame the government without blaming yourselves. Indians are loud and unsanitory.

Good riddance! Let Canada deport all illegals back to India and ban them forever! Anyone without factual credentials must be deported forthwith. \n\nIf they side with their much-vaunted 'Indian' government in badmouthing Canada, why the heck do these charlatans shamelessly stampede into Canada then?

America needs to let these religious wars pan out for themselves.\nNo money, no aid. \nOur men fight and die for our country to keep it strong and safe. Most of theirs do the same. But when war inevitably kicks off, Muslim countries should look after their brothers and sisters and aid where they can.\nBut they jus as crooked and money driven as the west but they not afraid to be ruthless. So they’re able to shun their people without world wide criticism

Canada is over crowded do not ket in not one more without 5 thousand leaving and do not give visitors a licence to marry ,that one is insane a visitet visa getting a marriage licence literally spells fake wedding and Punjab's literally brag how easy it is to pay someone to marry them or fake the documents for marriage to stay

Uncle Sam welcomes immigrants with visa. Don't enter THE USA without a visa. TRUMP is back!

If they know they are on these buses. So why can't they stop the buses and ship them back to their countries. And arrest the transporters? And how can they get on a plane without a passport?

Why is Canada allowing illegal immigrants to enter their country without a passport? This is so unneighberly of Canada to treat us so badly for so many years when we have been so generous to them for so long.

If the illegal immigrants flew to Canada so why is Canada letting them in their Country not vetted. Does this mean anyony can fly to Canada without a passport? Secondly, why aren't they just staying there?

The previous government always whined about what couldn't be done... well, anyone without legal entry documentation and due process is ILLEGAL and gets sent back home.

Canada cannot survive without Indian professionals, techies, workers and students who control the economy of Canada .so canada has no way but to depend on Indians

And yet the Palestinians denied Israel that very right to live in peace and dignity.\nPalestinians cannot survive without Israel. History will reveal that truth.

Hmmmm....everyone follows americas rules....bring criminal charges against those who are allowing people to enter into usa without applying....deport them all immediately.....make them pay for the removals......Boston has become a terrible place to live....

The problem can not be solved without the assistance of NYC government. So….

As crazy as Trump can be with his mouth at times, this is why he was re-elected. Trump is going burn the house down while fixing things and breaking things. Biden caused one of the greatest national security crisis's this country has ever seen and he should still be held accountable for it. Biden's weird gay agenda is just immoral, just look at his son Hunter's lost and immoral behavior. Gee, thanks dad...Your a great role modal...And thanks for all you did to get President Trump re-elected...Couldn't have done it without ya...

STOP ALLOWING THEM TO WORK IN THE UNITED STATES WITHOUT PERMISSION. ALSO, STOP ALL SANCTUARY CITIES FROM RECEIVING ANY MONEY.

Have you ever been to the NY Canadian border??? You can't get near it without being surrounded by border patrol. There are many thousands of cameras in the woods. This whole video is a lie. Don't fall for it. This guy is trying to scare you so you feel okay about handing all you have to a few billionaires.

As a canadian I can without a doubt SCREAM that Trudeau has absolutely destroyed this country. Take what's happened in NYC and apply it to our entire country. replace latin americans with INDIANS. That's canada.

Cash I really like your approach on reporting national issues in a local perspective without being biased, emotional and without grafting in personal views. I believe you are highly underrated.

When the US stops sending illegal guns to Canada, the cause of all LEGAL gun owners to have our guns banned, we'll stop sending drugs back to the US (cuz the US is sending drugs here too) and allowing terrorists from other countries to cross the border over to the US. At least you can pull out your handguns to fight the terrorists and immigrants off. We have nothing to fight the criminals carrying illegal guns that the US gave them to use here in Canada. The only ppl who could even suggest Canada is the problem without admitting their own failure to protect are ignorant ppl woth their heads up their own a**. That's your president for you. Good job to all who voted for that clown!

100.000 have entered the uk over last 10yrs given free accommodation and health benefits while the indigenous pensioners who paid tax while working are now freezing thanks to this government giving aid to god knows how many countries. Crime rate tripled,but they still allow all into the country without any vetting.they actually ditch passports into the English Channel . We need Trump

This is bs because your not suppose to enter Canada without a Visa they are very strict about this with law abiding citizens!!!!!!

How does the NYC tourism industry react to the effect of its government aiding and abetting coyote crime syndicates-in smuggling in illegals -then spending billions of their tax dollars on their services? Not to mention the insane theft of businesses and the fact that NY changed their laws to allow it without punishment? Americans are NUTS

I always figured that one of the best First Nations land settlements in Canada would be to turn over a 10km wide strip that follows the entire Canada/US border. Just one long territory that's completely controlled by the Native population and nothing gets through without their say.

Imagine Israel without Western media ???

Cant help but to be impressed by your camera. It can show a cellphones display without any flickering..Damn. Good buy!

Toning down your voice would allow us to listen, without bearing to listen to your painfully artificial speech.

they can’t just take a bus from canada to the US without going through US border control. Same at airports, US border control has check points in Canadian airports.

What about entering the eastern boarders ? ........ Most importantly ? \n\nIs a sandwich really a sandwich , without the tangy zip of miracle whip ?

Put the military on the border so a raccoon can't even cross without us knowing about it.
