Invasion of illegals has ruined the country and the worst part most have zero respect for the US they just want freebies they can always hop back over if things go south.

10k per day since Biden took office is way too many people with zero accommodations. That’s hundreds of millions all in the Texas border. And they get mad when a few bus loads arrive in NY?

*I guess no one is mentioning the most absurd fact here: THESE PEOPLE ARE FROM VENEZUELA!!!?? Venezuela is 2700 MILES and TEN COUNTRIES AWAY from El Paso! That means that 100% of these people are not asylum seekers nor refugees, they are economic migrants and have ZERO right to even attempt entry in to America legal or otherwise, as they have traversed across 10 SAFE COUNTRIES where their asylum needs were met. And starting off the first seconds of your entry in to a host country by molesting its National sovereignty and disregarding its laws makes you a scum fuck who doesn’t deserve to be here. If you really needed asylum, you would go to the next safe country. The moment you are safe and choose to go further, is the moment you are no longer a refugee or asylum seeker, but a greedy selfish chooser pretending to be a beggar. The irony is, america takes in MORE LEGAL MIGRANTS THAN ANY OTHER COUNTRY ON EARTH AS IT IS. The only people who benefit from our failing immigration system/border are the elites who get an unending supply of cheap labor to throw in to whatever thresher they need filled, and the illegal aliens themselves who just want money and don’t care whose society they have to stomp on to get it. And all it costs is basic rule of law, functional governance, a loss of fairness on the part of legal immigrants, clogged up systems for genuine refugees, and the native working class of America have to compete with foreigners for low skilled jobs and their taxes get siphoned off with every illegal migrant that enters the nation. Somehow no one in politics has the stomach to do mass deportation nor border defense, hmm I wonder why? (Looks over at elites’ thresher) If you are from Venezuela and claiming to be seeking asylum at America’s border, WHILE STANDING IN MEXICO where you could seek asylum and choose not to, then you’re a liar and a piece of shit. These hordes of fighting age men raping my country make Trump look better and better by the moment. Sincerely, a left winger whose tired of this fuckery.*

THE ONLY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CANADA AND USA, IS A ZERO (0). CANADA, HAS 36 MILLION .....THE USA, HAS 360MILLION. THEY ARE THE SAME DAMN COLONIZERS .

We have enough problems here caused by our incompetent federal government. Until we fix that there’s absolutely zero hope of the US effectively helping anyone when we can’t even help ourselves.

Let them in who the hell cares only racist are worried about letting them in on land they don’t even own and the worst part the ones who don’t want them in are the welfare group of people the one who have zero say so to anything on earth

How come no one is talking about the fact that these countries have zero accountability for their citizens? I mean Venezuela has been extremely silent. This is pathetic. I have no words for what this world is becoming.

We’re literally letting in HOMELESS PEOPLE WITH ZERO ZERO EDUCATION. The United States is going to fall and fast. It already is. How are these people beneficial to society?

send canada TO FUCKING ZERO

Let's talk about homelessness and house price in Canada. We see tent cities emerging in Vancouver and Toronto, millennials still living with their parents, the us wins more points in regards of housing price, but noth receive zero points in regards of tackling homelessness

USA is so big with some states that are practically empty and still there's American's who display zero compassion. American's fking suck.

Bad PM / leaders and Eco-activists kill the country. We could have a great economy like saudi with ours oil reserve but we need to use it less possible to be carbon zero ??

In Mexico you have zero welfare...no freebies... everyone must pay extortion fees to live.. that's why the rest of Latin America wants to be here.. everything is free for them ????

It's normal to find homeless people in any place in the world...for me a country that is zero corruption is the best.

Why not protest like this in their OWN country!! It makes zero sense. Fight for your rights and your children's rights just like Americans had to do many years ago. And might have to do again. They Wana reap all the benefits without doing anything

They need to be stop...can't let this happen..zero way passable

And surely there will be zero accountability from this administration.

I got zero on that test!

Reminder that New Yorkers shit themselves over having to take care of just 100 bused in immigrants but have zero prob with letting us deal with this bullshit because they’re isolated from the consequences of their policies

And there are zero apartments available in my town. Ppl are upset around here cause they truly have 1 year waiting lists. Let’s just all be homeless at this point cause that’s what’s gunna happen.

Every one of these entitled criminals have ZERO sense of responsibility for changing THEIR OWN COUNTRY, so they take the easy, lazy road and invade OUR country. That's JUST the caliber of citizen we need more of ?

Immigration laws have to be enforced we cannot continue taking the worlds immigrants we have homeless problems already we have people that have problems supporting their families as it is..we need to solve our own problems at home before we can solve problems abroad.i have zero problems with someone emigrating to the u.s. but it needs to be done legally..the rich in the United States keeps getting richer and the poor keep getting poorer.solve that problem first..

They have 0 zero respect for our country. It's not America's fault that other countries are so dangerous to their own people. That being said, yes, morally we should help people. But the people in need of help need to be respectful and follow the boundaries (laws) of the country trying to help. This is ridiculous and dangerous. They are not US citizens but they think they can just push their way into our country. We as Americans from USA are not allowed or able to do this to other countries

Notice how he says they can be sent back to the US. I'd love to.see how many are actually sent back , I'm guessing zero.

Cuz Joe Biden is the dumbest loser president of US history.these people need to stay out of our country they need to go back to their own country.these people are like ants or rats .plz keep these people out of our country.Joe Biden policies are going to ruin our country...BRING BACK TRUMP. GO BACK TO YOUR COUNTRY YOU CAME FROM .WE DONT WANT YOU IN OUR COUNTRY..I HAVE ZERO SYMPATHY FIR THESE PEOPLE..WHEN TRUMP GETS BACK IN OFFICE WE NEED TO SHUT DOWN ALL BOARDERS AND STOP AND ALL MONEY TO SUPPORT FOREIGN COUNTRIES.WE NEED TO REBUILD THE INFRASTRUCTURE OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE NEXT TEN YEARS.GO BACK TO YOUR OWN COUNTRY.VV

Personally, I have zero issue with immigrants..but you must do it legally, PERIOD! Once you cross a border illegally YOU are now a criminal by law and SHOULD be treated as such & immediately deported. We all have suspicions as to why a certain political group allows this to happen though & it’s to the detriment of actual Americans. With everything there is a right & wrong way of doing something…and the wrong way should always come with consequences.

Guys I have an idea... Let's build, a wall. There's absolutely ZERO hypocrisy here WHATSOEVER ???

BECAUSE THEY WILL PROCESS ZERO ASYLUM AND MANY HAVE BEEN THERE WAITING 24 MONTHS IN LINE FOR APPLICATIONS WITH INFANTS & CHILDREN & LAWFUL REQUESTS?

This is ridiculous this administration has ZERO CONTROL over what’s happening in this country.

i think its funny for the people just doing it to do it to be distructive yet when there done,., how you getting back home without getting a shit tone shit makes zero sense i get for the people that dont plan on going back but the people doing for fun your screwed.

Welcome to Canada, we'll arrest out own citizens, but not illegal aliens. I understand the struggle of immigrants, but we have our problems we need to deal with. Like veterans with zero income being offered assisted suicide before being offered mental health help

Sorry but that makes ZERO sense. Run across the border then what?

Yooohooool canada is an open zoo, refugees illegal migrants, we will have more people workin in our groceries and fastfood chains, thats what canada wants, its probably way more expensive to provide free healthcare to them, if I was one of them geez i would go for it, meanwhile the rest of us taxpayers cant even afford roof over our heads, inflation and zero raise!

I'm surprised you didn't mention Alberta's rat population of Zero \n\nIf you want to move to a place in this world with no rats, you either have to move to the Arctic, Antarctica, or Alberta

Sad part is most of them have nowhere to go and zero skills. What are they gonna do? Where they gonna go? Sad the dems hv zero problemo wit this.

Sub zero temperatures and walking with children. That's some human desperation right there. It's sad that bigoted dummies like Ron DeSantis uses these people as political props. It's really disgusting.

You'd think the countries they're all leaving would have zero population by now!

I had zero money in my pocket, came to Canada in 1993, and built a happy life under the flag and grace of Canadian people. I do not know what are your educational/professional background, but here honesty pays off and people are ready to help. But we do not appreciate whining people, especially drama queens.

Absolutely zero experiences in California or Miami or New York CIty are representative of even 20% of the major cities in that country.\nThe average salary in Most of Southern California is 125k a year. Let's not act like that applies to every major city.

Yo, outside of my hometown in Long Island, Tap water is straight trash. I live in NJ now and I put my tap water through zero filter before i drink it. NY, atleast in Long Island and the burrows have amazing tap water. Upstate NY was meh...I have to find tap water like that outside of it though.

I don't understand why people are against ethnic groups segregating into their own enclaves. People (except progressive whites) love being around people who look like them. To me it feels more secure and easy to communicate both verbally and nonverbally. Too many groups together creates tension and feels zero sum like somebody has to lose.

Zero cons...I bet u spend half ur time in the States

As someone who was born and spent decades growing up in Toronto who moved to the US years ago and spend time regularly in multiple states, I disagree vehemently with what Aba said about safety. Aba did not recognize that not only is the US like 50 different countries, with each state being somewhat unique unto themselves, but the cities are like an amalgamation of 2 or 3 different cities. What I mean by that is about the safety and security aspect, it all depends on where you live and where you hang out. Undoubtedly, US ghettos and the sketchy clubbing districts are generally worse than Canadian housing projects and such. If you live in the regular or especially good parts of the city, it's totally safe. \nBecause most US towns and cities are built around neighborhoods, security and safety is always a big selling point. As long as you avoid the ghetto and late night 'action' areas, it's generally safer than Toronto. Toronto suffers from an outbreak of car break ins, car thefts, home break ins and recently car jackings all over. Many US neighborhoods and areas have no such thing. On a side note, as a POC, I also have experienced far less racism in the US than I used to in Toronto. Without getting into a can of worms, if you live in a Democrat controlled city vs. Republican one, you are going to experience more crime, more homeless, higher unemployment, etc. You guys are referencing LA, which has become far worse, like San Francisco and New York. \nAnd the cost of living comment is ridiculous. Again maybe LA and NYC which are shadows of what they once were. Canada has far higher tax burden, way higher inflation, prices of food, energy, clothes and homes are off the charts. In Texas, Florida, Tennessee and Washington, we have ZERO income tax as well as lower tax than the HST. No way, Aba and Preach are dead wrong on these issues, because they are using LA or NYC as a reference. There's a reason the movies Escape From New York and it's sequel Escape From LA are such prophetic movies.

Pathetic how you always blame everything on racism. Always somebody else’s fault right. Be a man and you’ll have zero problems! I’ve worked with many different people in -30 outdoors and they were there on the job site because they deserved to be there. They were outside and -30. They didn’t complain or quit. They worked! So usually people that complain just have inabilities to be hard! \nNow if you’re applying for an office setting customer service industry or critical care type job and you can’t construct a sentence nor comprehend the language of that country you’re in that’s a bit of a problem wouldn’t you say. I’ve hired the right people and I’ve also fired the right people, I’ve also worked with many different types in Canada and this racism thing is just a bullshit excuse! It doesn’t hold any great people back! I guarantee you that. Improve your skills as a Canadian that might help.

What Canadian government is doing makes zero sense. Bringing in more people to a country that has a major lack of housing. Hello?

indian embassy is worst in washington dc also they r very bad no customer service its like they behave we r criminals for kids also not considering rude behavior they need to change their behavior need to polite with customers we r living here means we cant forget our country after they earn from us thrillions of dollars customer service is zero and rude

So if in Canada you earn $100,000 and pay 40K to taxes and you have someone in another country that makes 10,000$ and pays zero taxes, who is better off? \nand keep in mind, employees don't actually pay any taxes, they are paid by the employer. The reason that employee makes 100K is because the 40k in tax deductions. If the tax rate was zero, that same employee will be making 60K and will be in the same position financially wise. So tax rates are irrelevant in Canada. the higher tax rates is why people here make stupid high salaries. I know dummies with no education making 80-90K per year.

The Montreal newspaper of December 2, 2022 Quebec - Canada \n \nInfo-Sante: Quebec calls on retired nurses to the rescue \nNo short-term improvement in emergencies, admits Dubé \n \nThe Quebec Health Minister Dube on the defensive \nThe current crisis in Quebec hospitals was at the heart of the very first parliamentary contest in the National Assembly since the elections. The Minister of Health has been the subject of crossfire from the opposition parties, which are demanding tangible results in the health plan of the CAQ. \n“There are 30% of parents who hang up on pediatric 811 because they have no service. There are 16% of people who leave the emergency room because they have no service!”, railed Liberal MP André Fortin. According to him, these figures show that the minister has simply failed. \nNot to mention the list of patients who have been waiting for surgery for a year and more, which has not diminished, despite Christian Dubé's promises. The latter has undertaken to reduce this threshold by the spring to the pre-pandemic level, that is to say to 2,500 operations. Currently, there are more than 21,000 patients on this list. \n“He reduced the list of patients waiting for surgery in Quebec by exactly 0%, zero. In fact, the list, it has increased. So, until now, his target, his commitment, his promise on the surgery waiting list has been a failure,” added the elected official from Pontiac. \nMinister Dubé claims to have recently met with medical specialists, who have undertaken to “update” the plan in the coming weeks to reduce surgeries. \nWith the variants of COVID-19 and the many viruses in circulation, the summer period was not conducive to catching up on operations. “We have to strike a balance between the hospital beds that we use either for emergencies or for surgeries. And when we have problems like we have, at the moment, with emergencies, it is sure that the surgeons suffer from it”, he insisted. \nSurgeries in numbers \nTotal number of patients awaiting surgery: 160,869 \nPatients waiting for a year or more: 21,066 \n*Source: Ministry of Health dashboard dated November 5, 2022

1 - It was other people’s income taxes that paid for & made the Canada you met, liked & had an opportunity to thrive in. If you’re questioning why you have to pay higher taxes when you earn more, think about refunding the benefits you had when you weren’t earning as much\n\n2 - 8 hours in an ER is not an emergency, if there’s a life threatening incident, you get the medical care you need\n\n3 - Quality living costs money everywhere in the world, you get what you’re willing to pay for. There are $35 phone plans & you can use public transportation & skip car insurance and maintenance. US inflation is worse off than Canada\n\n4 - There are so many things to do in Canada, it’s just not in your forte. Outdoor activities in both winter & summer\n\n5 - Cry me a river!\n\n6 - SMH\n\n7 - Leaving Canada to go back to where you’re unsafe, unsteady power supply & almost non-existent healthcare?\n\n8 - It’s a huge trade-off, I left Canada 9 months ago to the West Coast of the US & couldn’t stop talking about escaping sub zero temperatures BUT putting everything on the table, Canada works out best for & I’m looking forward to moving back. \n\n9 - Which countries does Canadian passport allow you to live & work in?\n\n10 - This I agree, it’s a high regulated society & it could be a turn off.\n\n11 - False! In a country where 37.5 hours is considered fulltime? How many federal holidays does Canada have? If you’re working 10 jobs to stay afloat, that’s absolutely on you, it’s not a “Canadian issue”.
