The only way out for Canada is to get rid of Trudeau and Singh. If Canadians can do that, there can be some hope.

As an Indian, I am aware of the many scams people are involved in just to stay in Canada. One of my acquaintances went to Canada with their family on an Express Entry PR. They are working full-time for cash while also claiming unemployment benefits from the Canadian government. I wonder what action the Canadian government would take against such scams. I hope my comment reaches someone responsible.

Canada. The newest 3rd world. As an indigenous. Now I hope the whites know how we felt.. Canada is done.

Now that India is going to get back such talented Indians returning to India from Canada and USA, hope to see a better India in next few years.

Good luck , Alina !\nI really hope you can find a nice future in somewhere ?in the world.\n\nAlso I hope Canada will be better country for living all people in Canada like before that like people can feel happiness with normal life( Everyone can live with work,living place,not to high cost food,tax,then go to see a doctor as soon possible etc…)\nI really hope that,too.

Wait what? Why you're here after your permits are over? Canada have rules I hope such violations should ban them from coming again.

Canada is in recession and Please send them back ASAP to India. Canada has already become India 2.0. Oh Boy...Student's please go back to India because the young Canadins needs jobs too. Hope they speed up the process and Mr. Trump has already in the process of putting 25 % tariff unless we get our border secured. Game over folks, Please return.

I hope that all Muslims in Canada will do the same and go to a Muslim country where they can live in peace in their own culture and not try to change the culture in Canada

Being an Indian immigrant, I agree with them. Too many people were let in a shorter span of time. Most of them don’t even try to blend in and act like an entitled brat. I hope situations get better in coming years and Canada starts to prosper again. ??

Canada is becoming the place of only the rich can live here and the middle class an poor ar forced out or going to foodbacnks and becoming more an more homeless on the streets.there will be a war here in the future if it keeps going in this manner and rasist that is now will be more for both side but tolate for pure canadins and will need to leave to another country that will take us in.we will be like them an be immediate people hoping to move in.

You must understand one thing. We the people of Canada are not to blame for your situation. It is THE PM. Justin Trudeau and his liberal party who agreed to this. We as a people are also in a dire situation because of all you people coming to OUR HOME land. We too suffer from lack of food, jobs, habitation. Our rights are not respected since you came here. But we do not fight you, we suffer you. It won't get better. I hope you will not take offense by my speaking out but just letting you know we have problems too, so next time don't believe it's better elsewhere you study at large, verify make calls. Do not trust the Embassies. I wish you better places to live, especially since the Election in USA. They threaten us of a take over from Canada to USA. Goodbye ? ???

This was a really great analysis of Canada’s current immigration issues ??. It blows my mind how politicians can make such obvious mistakes. Hopefully (?) this country can regain some balance socially and economically.

Yeah the government is going hard after immigrants right now, which is good because there was a lot of abuse and the rate of immigration was far too high, but also it's not the root of the problem where housing is concerned. \n\nIn this way, immigrants are a scapegoat for the housing crisis. They're being offered up as sacrificial lambs to the slaughter by our politicians in the hopes that it will appease voters. But at the same time our politicians also hoping that we don't notice how little they're doing to actually solve the real fundamental problems.\n\nBut solving those problems will require a complete shift in our approach to the finance sector and the tax code, as well as towards city planning and housing policy in general. These are things we can achieve. But not without significant adjustments to the status quo. And if there's one thing the status quo hates, it's changes to the status quo.\n\nSo here's what I expect from our politicians in years to come: more of the same empty promises and half measures. They'll keep doing that until there's a massive market correction and everyone in Canada loses their shirt. And then they'll continue doing the same empty promises and half measures, while hypocritically blaming the rival party for their own failures.

Balanced take, I'm surprised by the positive conclusion of this video by being hopeful in Canada. It's far more common to see doomer takes on Canada online

I love Canada no issues here. I have an amazing life. I hope you guys do to.

Canada was too naive and didn't learn from the usa. It mostly attracted people from India, Bangladesh and Pakistan, from where students somehow show bank statements but actually do not bring those money with them, let alone being of a good quality student. Thats how they eventually became a liability. And these people are protesting and demanding obnoxious things like 5 years pgwp. U said it correct. They just use canada to milk. I hope canada successfully throws these people out and rebuilds a good environment.

Canada really needs people who are committed to Canada and for whom a good life means not just money. Sad to say this there has been so much abuse of the systems here lately. Canada used to be known for its nice people. Not anymore. It is sad indeed. But we were a prosperous country of nice people.I hope we weed out the scammers, and get back on our feet.

Hello Anna and Anastasia your channel is truly a hidden gem full of useful information and insight. I am an international student myself and I agree with all your points in the video, Canada used immigration to fix a deeper problem and that is its difficulty to incentivize the economy by having a heavily regulated environment, high taxes and low productivity. It will definitely alleviate some of the pressure on the system but, the real cause is still there. The first sector that is going to be affected will be the education as colleges and universities became over reliant with the revenue coming from Int. Students (which is not particularly small) and institution will need to adapt. When I first came here I fell in love with the country and I really feel fortunate to enjoy this beautiful place and doing everything to assimilate and integrate myself into the culture. I think here you can have a sense of hope of things improving in the future (something that is not the case in my home country) but if they do not fix the underlying problem it does not matter how much immigration they reduce, Canadians will not see a significant improvement. Keep the awesome work!!!

Thank you so much for this. In spite of being born in Ontario, I learned a lot about Canada! My entire family was born and grew up either in Toronto or in the then-small towns closeby. My father moved us to upstate NY in 1957 when I was 9 years old, me kicking and screaming all the way. I was devastated to be leaving Canada, and now at 77, I've decided this life-long yearning to return to my birthplace has to become reality. I've started the process, hoping I may gain some points because I'm a former citizen :) . I still have lots of family in several provinces; people I haven't seen since we were children, and some of us are great-grandparents now. I feel strongly that I need to leave this world in the place where I began :) Thanks again for the great video!

It's crystal clear that immigration is the number one concern in Britain, Canada, America, and all over the west.\nSecuring the borders is the one thing that the people want.\nAnd it's also the one thing the ruling class will NEVER allow. Just look at what they have done to this world. We ain't gonna vote our way out of this, hope you all realize that.

Far more drugs, weapons and people are smuggled into Canada from the US than the other way around. I hope Canada stops being such a reliable neighbor. They send help after every hurricane, blizzard or forest fire at no cost to the US. I hope Canada stops helping.

I hope Canada makes a similar statement

I live in Canada for last 48 years, and it’s a wonderful place, but problems started when liberal government started giving “immigrants” free money, that was burdened on the system.. and Chinese were buying houses in Vancouver and left them empty.. we don’t have corporations, bribery but values of time is very important… yes we do have some problems with economic issues… hopefully will get sorted out when new government will come next year.. not with EVM

I’m an American of Indian descent and I- now- understand why my parents never wanted to immigrate to Canada. …This is so sad and I hope Canada changes and kicks out Trudeau. Canadians, please, fight back! \n\nYours truly, \n\n-?? ?

PARTY IS OVER !! A word of advice for the rest of the Desi crowd (that are lucky to stay inside and hopefully get the coveted Canadian passports) : PLEASE BEHAVE PROPERLY .... You are here in Canada and now you MUST follow our rules... DO NOT bring your Indian mindset of 24/7 Bollywood MADNESS/CHAOTIC-Rudeness into C A N A D A ... WE JUST DON'T CARE ABOUT THAT SHIT.

Boy, some people would cut off their nose to spite their face. Let's hope your doctor is not an immigrant that gets deported. You want the immigrants gone, yet you whine about the wait time for doctors and medical services, many of which are provided by new comers to Canada and the United States. Canada and the US do not have a monopoly on brilliant people. They exist in every country around the world. To not recognize that does everyone a great disservice.

Mass immigration now needs to become mass deportation. It’s Canada’s only hope to return to being a great country.

So basically, you(JT) bring migrants with giving them hope of PR because of demand and now throw them back because no demand. What do you think what will happen to their life? They left everything behind and moved to Canada because you gave them hope of PR and now they have to go back, their life is ruined. Don't give nonsense of bad actors or exploitation, fake colleges and you didn't know about it from first day! Sorry for those who migrated and now left on their own.

I think the only hope for canada is to split up and form smaller countries. Albertans are sick of sending transfer payment to Quebec and never seeing any of it again. BC is a lost cause, nobody wants them, they are socialist. Let quebec and toronto form their own country and speak french if they want to.

We hope you never come back to Canada ??

My family is from Canada. I hope the immigrants enjoy the snow.

Any politician/corporation/CEO that supports, ignores or enables the breaking of laws, should be considered to be in breach of those laws as well. Any one that makes use of or allows illegal (as in breaking the law) immigration/immigrants should be removed from the post and jailed. \n\nWhy do liberals progressives think they are above the law or that they only need to follow the laws that they want too? I can only hope Canada, the UK, the US and EU see extreme changes to our immigration and protections put in place for citizens and our cultures in the future.

Canada is often perceived as a land of opportunity and comfort, but my personal experience told a different story. After living there for over a decade, I made the difficult decision to leave for several reasons, each of which compounded my struggles and ultimately led me to seek a better quality of life elsewhere.\n\nThe Incident That Sparked the Change\nIn 2017, I was attacked in Toronto, leaving me with a broken nose. It was a traumatic experience, but the frustration didn't end there. When I reached out to my doctor to fix the injury, I was placed on a waitlist. For years, I followed up, hoping for progress, but by 2023, I still hadn’t received a call for the surgery. Each time, I was told the same thing: a shortage of doctors meant they couldn’t help. This highlighted a stark reality of the Canadian healthcare system—while it is publicly funded, it is often overwhelmed, leaving people waiting for years for essential treatments.\n\nThe Harsh Reality of Living Costs\nLiving in Canada became increasingly unsustainable for my family and me. Despite working hard and earning less than $100,000 annually, the cost of living pushed us into a debt of over $70,000. The financial strain was immense, forcing us to sell our home just to clear the loan. Even with this sacrifice, our lifestyle remained stagnant. We hadn’t taken a vacation in ten years because there was simply no room in the budget. Owning a home or enjoying basic luxuries felt like an unattainable dream, and I realized that continuing in this cycle was not a viable option.\n\nChallenging Weather Conditions\nCanada’s harsh weather was another factor that wore us down over time. The long, freezing winters and short, unpredictable summers made it difficult to enjoy outdoor life or maintain a consistent routine. The mental toll of enduring such extreme weather year after year contributed to the decision to seek a more temperate and enjoyable environment.\n\nA Need for Change\nAfter ten years of struggle, it became clear that the current conditions in Canada were not conducive to a fulfilling life. The combination of healthcare delays, skyrocketing living costs, financial stress, and unforgiving weather made me question the sacrifices I was making. Life is short, and the realization that there are other places in the world with better systems and opportunities prompted me to take action.\n\nWhile Canada has its merits, it’s important for people to reassess their priorities and make decisions that align with their well-being. For me, leaving was a step toward reclaiming my life and creating a future where I could thrive, rather than just survive.

I could Understand a Precious thing like you getting so tired of whatever I always say Canada is a Clean & Civil Country with very small Exceptions. Even today Canada is a little more Cleaner then the US but you're not wrong 2020 screwed the World in a bad way, hopefully they could Restore faith, proceeding to Clean up the Environment!

It’s not good that you don’t feel good showing that you’re Muslim, but are you saying you want Islamic prayer calls forced on all Canadians? ? I hope Canada never has any religion publicly forced.

I hope that none of you will ever have to run from your home to another country. Selfish set of people you are. It seems as if you were the ones that created Canada. Canada is NOT HEAVEN

Hopefully these Islamic terrorists about to be deported out of the US won't make it into Canada, we have enough of them already.

I hope they deport all our Canadian Doctors back to Canada....

I wish Canada would build a wall at our southern border, keep out the 75 million maga people unfortunately both America and Canada need each other but your orange con artist is going to try hard to disrupt the long good relationship we have had it’s to bad hopefully we can make it through the next 4 years

We must show our humanity, and receive any legitimate people seeking political refugee status, Canada has the money, if we fully adopt the MMT. Now is our time to shine on the World Stage and show our generosity, humanity, and hope for the world, showing that we are not turning Autocratic like others. We now desperately need to strengthen the Liberal~NDP coalition more than ever.

I am Canadian and hopefully when Pierre becomes the next Prime Minister of Canada we will see deportations these evil Islamists terrorizing our citizen's and shouting deat to Canada make the deportations happen. We stand with ?? Israel.

Hope Poilievre makes Canada great again. Don't send your looneyToons here. When he gets in, We are getting rid of our own!

Immigration is a privilege, not a right. Legal immigrants have earned that privilege. Genuine refugees deserve a fair chance at getting that privilege too. Illegal immigrants switching between countries pretending to be refugees don't qualify. These are the same people who went to the US illegally in the first place, then hope to come to Canada illegally when it's bad in the US, and then will return to the US illegally when things will get better there.

Also, Canada never had job opportunities.. canadian public colleges just collide with indian immigration agents (who gets commission ₹1.5 lakhs for every single student visa they send to canada) by showing you false hopes and dreams and fake job opportunities If they have any few job opportunities that is for labour jobs, that’s it. They wanted modern day slaves \nThis is all a scam!

Trump needs to send them south to Mexico where they came in...\nI am a Trump supporter but if he sends them or doesn't redirect those coming to Canada southerly.. I hope he considers the impact of that.... What a fxxk up....

I hope it inspires us to stop letting Trudeau flood the country with low skill immigrants and mainly male refugees. I hope it stems the flow of chinese students and adults destroying our housing market with their shady investments while acting as foreign agents for the CCP. Put canadians first. Dont just import cheap labor to exploit because you dont wanna pay the white working class a decent wage. Fuck canada.

Canada me hamare bhai rehte hain. Ghar hai wahan. Koi ghoomne nahi gaye hain. Canada ke development me poora sehyog hai hamare bhaiyon ka. Ye bahut galat policy adopt kar raha hai canada. Hum iska virodh karte hain. Hope canada isko sahi kar lega.

Do whatever your boss tells you. It's the only thing that works aside from Networking. Start going to the right church. Do not learn the Law aside from the obvious offences. Very important. Following or even indicating that you know how our country works can actually hurt you. Ignorance indeed leads to Bliss here. Competition? There is no competition. Find out who matters, don't cross them, hope you can get along and you'll be fine. Seriously, I stayed optimistic and disregarded these obvious clues to what Canada is really like and it destroyed my Life. This list of hints presented in this video paint a very rosy picture of what it's really like in our Cities and Provinces.

Kick out the Indian students who don't come to learn but try to get PR status through fake colleges AND the unskilled Filipino workers getting express entry through the 'Caregiver program', who have raped that program for decades and are number 2 on the list of most immigrants EVERY DAMN YEAR because of this program AND the Africans littering shelters and draining welfare and other programs paid for by taxpayers. Also kick out the Arabs who come to this country, looking at Palestinians right now, who don't adopt Canadian values but disrupt Canadian lives with their protest and who don't go back to their countries and fight THEIR WAR but will complain it from the safety of Canada. Let's start here. Hope the next PM of Canada does this.

come to the middle east there is a future for everyone. i don't know what is wrong with the western people. what do you want from life?you have got everything in Canada. as a person who is living in the middle east and struggling with poverty, corruption and war, i wish i could live in Canada just for one day. but i come here and see a woman calming that Canada has got no future. so you can go to the Mars. If you do not see a future for yourself in a western country that has democracy, freedom, a normal economy, a place to sleep and enough food to survive you , i hope you can find a better place in the other plant
