When I couldn't even invite close relatives to visit, and with no strong reason for denial but the only supposed trend by other visitors to stay their visit, I felt really disappointed and even wrote the Federal Minister of Immigration back then. That was over 10 years ago. Around the same time, I saw whole families from South Asian countries coming. And then I saw more, and then more. Older people pop up in family neighbourhoods. Then I asked why, what's going on here? I'm also sure that there has been a very biased immigration process throughout.

I hate Canada, and I'm going to permanently get away from that country.

Even with all of the problems, it’s still one of the safest places for LGBT+ folks like me to go to. I hope that I’m able to get in.

Bro, I’m tired of this all you guys do is just come over and take over Canada. Y’all can’t even drive right y’all be going into a lot of accidents at once and then literally on top of that y’all stink in the mall like do y’all ever take a shower like you stink like I can walk past you. I’d be almost throwing up y’all stink, your rag with soap and wash yourself?????

I can already hear impeachment coming and guess what he hasn't even been in office yet seriously voted for that man and guess what now we're all going to have to pay the price do you know that price is we're probably going to have to go to war with each other the reason I'm saying this because one you're going to have a bunch of angry f****** Americans storming that Dan capital and this time it won't be for Trump know it'll be to get Trump's ass as well as to get his cabinet buddies

Tried not to laugh when she said Mexico tried to slow the migrants from coming into the united states. I'm pretty sure I remember on CNN Mexico telling the migrants keep going your not welcomed here .

Excuse me Indian India is a big country that have all the resources they want why the president are the prime minister of India let him in bad people have to cut out all over the world that's not nice because number one they will never and they will not adopt the Western principal our life and God so why didn't you stay in India I'm asking you on the phone on the internet on the TV why the Indiana monster in India they come to the West they have nothing to do with the culture of the West that's very sad if we leave the Western go to India we will have to adopt your people who do not adopt on all these things happen because of weak prime minister weak member Parliament and the Northeast and North Justin Trudeau need to deport all of them that come here and student visa and his fake College

Trump doesn't know what's going on in politics and relationships. And even if he did, he'd never know what to do having the mindset of a rapist, draft dodger, convicted felon, liar could never come up with a practical solution. That's why I'm still upset with these voters who voted this guy in. They should start with impeachment.

Biden on the 1994 Crime Bill, Three-strikes law, stop and frisk, 1986 drug abuse act crack vs cocaine, 1986 immigration reform and control act, anti Asian hate crime bill, House passes antisemitism bill with broad bipartisan support Kamala Harris I'm Not, Going To Just Do Anything For Just Black People No!

I'm not too worried about the cost of guacamole going up. I want to stop the illegal immigration.

The problem with here is also with Khalistan issue (of course not all Punjabis there want Khalistan and are absolutely chill people and people here in India, Punjabis, also don't want Khalistan, I have some close friends who are Sikh and are most Dildaar, Big-hearted, people I know). A lot of extremist groups which want, Khalistan ARE supported and protected by the Canadian government especially by Justin Trudeau and these people are committing nothing but violence and terrorism in the name of free speech. Indian government has issued many extradition requests, but the Trudeau government has done nothing about it and has protected these extremists. Over the years Indian government has warned Canadian government about this issue constantly and after years of housing these Canadian terrorists (because Canada calls them their citizens and protects them, what else can be the correct term for them and nothing like Khalistan exists) they've started to cause problems for the people already living there (like the terrorists Pakistan was housing are causing problems to them). They know they are not gonna get a Khalistan in India so where else are they gonna build it? Voila! Canada! This is the reason behind them not assimilating with the existing culture.Trudeau has even gone to lengths of calling Amit Shah (Home minister of India) and PM Modi (if you don't know what the heck are you doing here go study geopolitics a bit) unalivers of Hardeepsingh Nijjar WITHOUT any evidence (they just keep saying they have it but have shown nothing till now) and because of which Canada has worsened its relations with the Indian Government. They are even comparing India with the likes of North Korea in terms of threat. Indian Government in reply is giving Canada the same treatment it gives to Pakistan (a bit better of course, but the diplomacy has gone to sh it. And the reason why Trudeau is doing all this, yeah VOTES for sh itty domestic politics he's sacrificing long term GOOD relations with the Indian Government. Now, you may think that worsening relations with India is a good thing for Canada, yeah no, its not good because India has trade relations with Canada which may worsen due to this (yeah, great going for an economy which is already in shambles) and UK or US are not gonna do anything to India over Canada because India geopolitically has more significance than Canada (I'm not bragging, please don't misunderstand). This rant has gone to a very different tangent but yeah a lot of problems Canada is having is mainly due to their government. Any of Canadian friends (I have not reason to hate you) and Punjabi brothers/sisters (Yeah, unless you are some sh itty extremist you are a brother/sister to me) please don't take this offensively. Peace.

Isolationism in the modern world doesn’t work, it’s an obsolete philosophy. The global world is far too interconnected, this will prove to be absolutely catastrophic not only economically but also politically. \n\nI’m independent, This in particular is NOT about politics, it doesn’t take a Democrat to conclude these little economic wars with the country we most depend on economically will prove catastrophic. Disagreeing with Trump on this doesn’t mean disagreeing with his presidency, let’s all understand the nuance in politics so we stop blindly agreeing with every choice politicians make just because we like them. \n\nBut ahh yes, Isolating the only two countries we border, the same countries that Russia, and China in particular are actively striving to increase their influence in, what could possibly go wrong Mr.Trump ?

I'm a US citizen living in Honduras. I'm sorry, because this is unrelated, but I want to let people know..... Today I was condemned to fight cancer alone. When my cancer was discovered for the first time, it was because I had seizures. Because of this, I can't drive. Because I can't drive, I can't get a decent job in The US. For a spousal visa, you need to have a certain amount of money. I don't have it. No matter that we have it together - being the citizen, that responsibility is solely on me. A humanitarian visa is $730, and only good for one use. We can't afford that. We went for a tourist visa, with a emergency appointment. They approved the emergency appointment, then promptly denied my husband's visa, without even asking him WHY he wanted to go to The US. Fighting cancer alone is exhausting. Why is that not a good enough reason for my husband to go to The US with me? Only for my appointments. Why is that not good enough? I guess he'll meet my family at my funeral, but not before.

Trump said: “I’m going to make America great again by placing tariff on other countries. To lower the price in America, I’ll raise the price outside of America .”

I'm old. You know how I know that for sure? I remember Laugh-in and I keep hearing Sock-It-To-Me, Sock-It-To-Me, Sock-It-To-Me. Tariff's arent' going to strengthen our trade negotiations with China. Quite the opposite. They'll just cut a better import deal with other countries. And it's not COUNTRIES that are ripping us off - it's CORPORATIONS. Trump wants you to believe it is countries so he can give tax cuts to corporations and dumb people won't know how badly that is screwing us over. It's like 'Over here is the REAL evil', not over there! Trust me! I'm your protector!!'

Not going to lie I’m already tired of the next 4 yrs

We need tariffs right now to slow down our spending and reduce inflation. Not only that, IMO this will be a temporary ouchy for US consumers but in the long run it’s going to benefit us if we stay strong. \nIf you notice, we have some of the best entrepreneurs in the world and many people here looking for the next opportunity. I’m sure we will find people to replace those imports and maybe eventually do it more efficiently and eventually affordable with coming technology.

I’m really going to miss Avacados! ??

I do not want trump as president . He is an inserectionist, treasonous criminal and traitor. He must NEVER be back in the White House. You are so afraid of him but you should not be. I’m afraid if you don’t act now, firmly and forcefully it will be a mistake. Trump is mentally and emotionally unstable, damaged, ill. I believe Russia somehow helped trump win. This can’t go on! Stand up to him and defeat him. For our sake.\nPlease ?.

The President of Mexico. She is a female and she is very smartcheck. Her background because she knows what's going on. And Donald Trump does not know the laws of the global. World, he just wants to do what he wants to do. I'm telling you everybody. It's going to be the roughest 4 years of everybody's life. You voted for this man. You wanted him and he's trying his best to do what he said. He's going, but he is going to fail miserably. There is no chance that he's going to winanything that he says that he's going to do. This is all the world makes deals and makes things go round and roundfor everybody. In this globe, sincerely yours watch out for all the hectics. Call me from elect president trumphe is going to hurt our The way we do things?????????

I'm proud of Mexico's new WOMAN president for speaking out against the orangutan's ? tariffs plan. How are tariffs going to solve the drugs flowing in? Do research on what a tariff is and you will find out it's not good.....

for those that don't understand tariffs. If I currently import a t-shirt from Mexico for 10.00 and sell it in the US for 15.00, I make 5 dollars in profit which I use to pay my staff and keep my business running. When Trump puts a 25% tariff on that t-shirt, it now costs me 12.50.You think I am going to eat 2.50 per t-shirt. No, I'm now going to charge you, the consumer, 17.50 for the same t-shirt because my cost of doing business has not gone down. You all really need to do some research and understand tariffs. I'm not moving my business to the US. I'm still getting the same amount of money for my products. The US consumer is footing the bill....

We don’t need Mexico we just use them cause there cheap. America can build and grow whatever they want. She should shut up and solve her own country’s crisis. There’s a reason her own people want to run to America. But the boot they will get if coming here illegally is their agenda. One day our army will probably have to swing in there for a solid week and end there crisis that they can’t handle themselves. & all these crybaby Americans over Kamala need to stfu and listen to the real adults. America will be America again. “Oh but we’re all immigrants” well I’m not I was born here. That happened years and years ago. You have better luck crying a river to a wall. Let’s go America let’s bring the real America back and make it strong again. F$$$ the haters and crybabies

At this rate democrats are going to lose every election for the next 100 years and I’m not jokinh

HAHAHAHAAAAA ???? I'M GOING TO LOVE IT WHEN THEY REALIZE THAT ITS ALL A SCAM

Good to see you sister I'm with you a 100 percent Justin has to go.

Her first problem when I came to this country she's going back to her country and I'm okay with that

I'm glad that some of the Rude Indians are going to be Sent back to their country. Canada was a Country that immigrants and Refugees came to get a start for a better life.Not this culture. All of the millions that came over here illegally need to leave.My parents are immigrants so I was happy that some people of my background be living and learning a New way of life.But I'm not glad anymore.

I was born in B.C. but moved to Ontario when I was a young child. I always wanted to go back, so finally I did in retirement, settling in Kelowna, in the Okanagan. It was paradise and I loved it there. However, my husband had to move into a nursing home this year, and I was forced to sell our house, deciding to move to Calgary, Alberta. So far I like Calgary a lot. I'm used to the snow, coming from Ontario, but I miss Kelowna like crazy. At least my husband is still there, and it's only a short flight for me to go and visit him.

I don't want more Indians coming here. I'm not a racist or a bigot etc.(not that I even care anymore if people call me that). I'm a patriotic and cultural preservationist. They do not assimilate at all. They build grotesque eyesore temples and statues, they speak loudly to each other in Punjabi, sikhs are now bringing violence to our streets, they take all the entry level jobs, then men wear dresses and turbans, they don't wear poppies and they poop on our beaches. \nThey are NOT Canadians and they don't assimilate. They should go back home.

Local here, born and raised in BC. As much as I love our country and history, I don't see myself being able to live here in the future. Real estate is the driving factor for the economy and with those housing/COL prices going up, I won't even be able to afford a split mortgage even if I had a steady 6 figure job. I don't want to leave Canada but I'm being indirectly forced to by the current Liberal government. Sure, our dollar was tanking before Trudeau enter power, but while he has been in power, it has barely changed and now is very close to reaching the same values we had in the Covid pandemic. Experts are estimating it to even go below that. It is not a good time to be a Canadian.

sorry i cant imagine how you've made living from this channel, its my third video into it, and i find it very dislikeable, you monotone rumble about your opinion after you've stated it, you go defensive and find the need to qualify every statement you have as its is your personal private opinion and its not a fact, as though your viewers are dumb enough to believe you state facts that are universal when you talk about yourself, your presentation is bland. between your tone, your message and your boring selfie vlogging experience, i dont know what is the appeal, either way, good luck moving to EAST EUROPE, maybe you'll learn the meaning of corruption in politics, enjoy the excesses in price hikes that are born from the recent ukraine war, and the silly failures in basic living \ni'm sure you'll miss your overprivilaged life super quickly! :)\n\nPS. have you looked into what the youtube algorithm will do to the marketing of your channel to your current audience once your physical location change? you'll suddenly be only exposed to people who dont even speak this language, this will be really fun for you! as a 35 years old guy, i can tell you i havent heard about anyone who had their bubble burst so late in life, i hope you tell us what that feels like

We've had enough... I'm all for the ones that were here prior to Turdeau.. but all of the ones after can go home. No respect for my country and the hate is coming

This is why we voted for Trump because we want our country back All of these people need to freaking go I'm sorry I'm not a bigot or a racist but come over here legally pay taxes and work instead of getting everything handed to you for free and have a multiple children over here

I’m ten minutes in and you haven’t said why or where you are going. You sound developmentally challenged to be honest. What is your point?

i'm happy there are people here who agree, but having your voice heard only as a youtube comment is not the answer. do you know how countries in europe managed to get ahead in healthcare? patients went to the press with recorded videos about their experience. and yes, initially the journalists dismissed this as non news, but it only needed one to go with it. and it made waves. now a 2hr wait in the ER in europe is met by the tv crew. \ncanadians refuse to do it. when i came to canada 25 years ago a 2hr wait was normal. now it's 9hrs and still no discontent voices. no politician is running on healthcare, but on cutting taxes and on giving back a few hundred dollars a year back to the families. and most are eating it up! \nbecause healthcare is public, doctors and their union have 0 incentive of allowing more professionals into the system, because they all share the same pie. there are families who do not have a family doctor and are forced to use clinics, even with newborn babies. my family doctor works a regular job, doesn't answer the phone after 3:30 (even though they are open until 4), has 2-half days (one is a golf day btw) and overall couldn't give a F about patients. on that high salary in any other industry, you'd be on call 24/7. \nand then there's housing, jobs, the education system is a mess - more and more people are worried about what these kids are learning and there is 0 incentive from any of the politicians to address the issue.\nand, of course, there is forced immigration. when we came it used to be a merit system, you had to bring in money to prove you won't be a burden to welfare for at least a year. it's definitely not the case now. \npeople look at PP as some kind of saviour, but he's not going to fix anything. usually conservatives are good for corporations, whilst liberals balance their policies with the needs of the common folk. how far they've fallen.

It's a problem and the only way to not see it as one is to remove your head.\n\nI'm down to seeing whatever measures needed to get rid of all if not most illegal aliens. The Democrats have been wrong at every step on this issue and have done but incentives people to come at great peril (Democrats are the ones if who have treated these poor people as political pawns).\n\nThey are also WRONG about it being geopolitical issue in South America. Most people entering the US illegally have not even been from Central or South America (if they are from Mexico they don't even get let in). But from China, Turkey, Ukraine, Pakistan, (not exactly countries that loves us).\n\nThese people have to make it through the Darien Gap and then fend off cartels from ripping them off. I also want to see Trump go after people who helped these illegals get here–not just cartels.

As a long time follower of this page... it's time to unsubscribe. You should be able to differentiate between immigration and illegal crossing of the border. I'm a master's student at a top university in the US, my dream is to be staying here LEGALLY and after years of work I want to build my own family and company here. My background is checked before I came here and I'm entitled to the laws here. Unfortunately the situation is really bad with illegals as they have no papers, they can literally go away with everything. They don't pay taxes, they commit crime and don't face the consequences. A guy from my programming class told me his best friend's sister was r*ped by an Afg*n criminal and he's still out in their neighbourhood.

I'm also an immigrant, been in Canada for 16 years, came here initially for uni. It's funny that I have no negative feelings towards immigrants from any other countries but India. And I didn't have any negative feeling toward them before I came to Canada, if anything, I only remember something positive my grandma telling me about Indian people being beautiful, that they have big beautiful eyes. After I came to Canada, over the years, based on countless personal experiences dealing with them, sadly my conclusion is 99% of them are bad, 1% are the exception. They are aggressive, rude, stinky, unhygienic, dishonest, always trying to take financial advantage of people or situations to save a few more bucks by being super annoying or cheating, extremely disrespectful and aggressive towards women!! Really nothing is appealing about them. And at a job position, 1 Indian will bring 10 Indians, 10 will bring 100, they are slowly encroaching the environment and taking over everything. Other races try to assimilate into the local culture, while the Indians are imposing theirs onto the local and other cultures. Canada feels like it's turning into a second India. It's lost its politeness, manner, rules etc. I no longer want to live here, I plan to move back to my country after a few years. And I don't really go to Tim Hortons anymore cuz the Indians are taking over all the franchises and lowered the standards of Hygiene and friendliness. I don't think I'm being racist, cuz I'm not having all these negative feelings based on their skin colour or origin. It's purely based on real life experiences in dealing with them.

Father I am holding on my opinion on this kind of sweet crises. Let me talk here. For this new government they eliminate all illegal immigrants. Becouse the loves of heavenly father I will not move the illegal people in the US. Why. Is becouse of the word love becouse God made the world made the people he put the air in people to breath and live becouse of his loves. So my mission is under love power. So I'm not going to send the people away . What I will do is show them how they will become legal. And stay continue to work for living .

And another thing she don't realize is. They don't just come to your house and say okay. You guys get together and get your stuff. We're gonna put you in a bus and take you back to the border. No, they violently arrest you like your criminal. And throw you in jail for months sometimes years at a time waiting to be deported. And if you think you'll all be deported at once, you got another thing coming. The man might go and jump. The woman might go in July. The kids might go separately next year. If you don't believe me. I saw it with my own eyes in 2019. I was locked up in Colorado. I watched them raid construction sites hospitals. Numerous other businesses arresting hard work in Mexican people. Imagine all the nurses and workers at hospitals that are from other countries. I watched them arresting nurses. Arresting tab drivers Uber drivers. I watched them raid schools and arrest children. I watched them put these poor people in jails with real criminals. All the immigrants loved me. I was actually in a federal and ICE facility. So I literally saw all of the immigrants. I protected them from the racist white people. I'm from Tampa Florida, so I'm used to the jails and prisons being majority, black guys. But in Colorado, it's white supremace, gangs and Mexican gangs. What's even more sickening? Is people from Washington would come in and take some of the Indians out. And when they came back, I would ask them questions and they said that the government people would get information on their family back in India and see if they could pay 50k to stay in America. It was sickening. I found out that what they were doing was deporting. Poor people and the people that have money back in their country. They have their families send money and let them stay. I saw it with my own eyes.

How exactly do you expect me to fit in? I've spoken English and lived here since the age of 2. I celebrate Halloween and Christmas but not Pride Month, and I don’t eat Canadian food regularly. If fitting in means doing all those things, then I have questions. I thought living here meant I could eat whatever I want and celebrate the festivals I like, such as Eid or Diwali, without anyone interfering. As long as I’m not causing trouble—which I never do—why should anyone dictate how I live?\n\nBeing '100% Canadian' is impossible for me because I prefer staying true to myself. This has been my country for a long time, so telling me to 'go back' makes no sense.\n\nAlso, let’s not forget how Canada’s history involves forcing European traditions onto Indigenous people. In the end, aren’t we all dealing with the same issues? For example, I’m not coming here telling anyone to convert to my culture, eat my food, or join my festivals. I respect others’ choices, and I expect the same respect in return.\n\nAnd by the way, if anyone feels 'forced' by certain communities, like Khalistanis, maybe that’s something to take up with your government—they brought those people here, not us. those are the the one in no fly list that your gov decided to take in and give them citizenship and causing trouble and being violent

I'm going to laugh so hard when she gets deported back to Mexico. Where the lady with is a ukulele singing about leopards eating my face ??? I hope all the people who voted for him get exactly what he's promised. Every single thing.

Canadian expat living in Asia. Just returned from a visit to Canada. While spending time with family and catching up with them was awesome, I couldn’t wait to be back in Asia. I’m enjoying a lifestyle here in a tropical beach that would be unreachable in Canada. Eating out all my meals, going out, attending cool events, flying frequently to nearby countries for a weekend or week or weeks at a time. Eating clean healthy food, meeting inspiring and friendly people. Typing this from the beach on a Sunday morning while enjoying my big freshly squeezed carrot juice cup that I paid 60 cents for! \n\nCanada only for visiting once a year. \n\nSave money, work remotely or better yet, learn a high income skill and live anywhere while making money online is the new FREEDOM PLAN. Get on it while you can!

What if her hero, Trump, decides that she should be deported because she doesn’t fit into his and Stephen Miller’s ethnic profile? I’m sure she will gladly go back to her point of origin ?????

Once again the media is shelling out the blame onto Canadians. The race card is coming out. \n I'm never against traditions. People being who they are. But when those 'traditions' involve or invoke a religious theme, no thanks. Not into that crap at all. I dont need it shoved in my face and waved in my streets either. \n If that is your need or way to live, go do it in your own country.

Stupid selfish woman. I’m o.k. I climbed the ladder, I’m just going to pull the ladder up after me. I’m betting she goes to church every Sunday. I despise these hypocrites.

Well i'm not going anywhere. I'm voting against liberals and conservatives. Pierre is not at all good for workers. He talks a big game, but it's just bullshit. I'm not going to watch my language while getting lied to.

Ohhh if it was her own child I’m sure she wouldn’t be saying that’s ok.., there are many like her out there. They get those papers and they think they work for the White House. If she would’ve visited Mexico and had a kid while visiting and didn’t have the money for a green card it would have been a completely different situation. For those just because you got your papers do you not think that there are people that came here as infants or kids to immigrant parents that came to work to provide for their kids it’s not that easy to get your green card it cost thousands of dollars. Many immigrants that I know and worked with including myself, I came here as a refugee. Immigrants are the hardest working people I know. Unfortunately a lot of the ones that came here as kids grew up in some neighborhoods that are not so great and mainly are kids that were born here that are in gangs or doing drugs or violent so don’t blame immigrants saying they bring all this with them it was already here … drugs gangs violence was already here. Gangs started in the White House with their red and blues. Then they say they are taking all the jobs.. the jobs have always been here but people that are citizens are too lazy to go get jobs or keep jobs ( not all citizens) but the ones that are complaining immigrants usually come from villages without any media or drugs or gangs ect. They simply come here for better opportunities or for jobs. They come to work not to freakin take your jobs… this country everyone is a damn immigrant this country was taken from the natives taken with violence by killing them , rapi!’ Them. And people sit here and say we are here to take back our country… ohhh please stfu!!!!! \nMajority of crimes were committed by our Americans but they look for immigrants and pin their crimes on them… Donald Duck is a damn immigrant he needs to stfu and go to sleep with his pu&@@@ grabbing tiny hands… shame on anyone that supports deportation..
