I'm an Indian immigrant and lived in ON. I drove through Brampton once and I vowed to never go back there again. But you see this is a vicious consequence of declining birth rates in Canada. Christianity is trampled upon along with its values and principles and this is one of the results. The first thing I asked the day I landed was where were all the Canadians? Have they left the planet? \n\nA country needs people and once a certain ethnic population grows in strength and in numbers the landscape is sure to change. Besides, Canada does not demand immigrants assimilate into the culture, instead it's vice versa and it's disappointing. And when you give up Christianity, what do you expect immigrants to embrace? DEI? That's the last thing they will and continue to push their religions. \n\nBesides, what is Hindu and Pakistani? One is a religion and the other is a nationality. You may want to review that data cos something is off if it's categorized in such a manner.

When you have a country that has 1.5% rental vacancy rate, and only 150,000 houses are built in a year, and then you bring in 1.4 million new immigrants and foreign students/temporary workers, you end up with 500,000 or more homeless people each year. If they bring in another million people, the homeless population will simply grow by another million people as there is nowhere for people to rent and no new homes available to buy.

Like, if you went to high park, you will see a lot of brazilians and portuguese ppl. The houses in high park are at unaffordable rates. Yet, no one is pointing fingers - that's why this is racist. There are homeless there too

I would never go there willingly. There's a reason insurance rates are high there!

At this rate, english will be the most dominant language in the world

I might have an answer , canada’s birth rate per women is record low, people are avoiding planning babies, canada population is aging. How will government pay benefits to its citizens and keep country running in this situation. Immigration is the solution

The answer is simple. Anglo Canadians and french Canadians if you forget GOD , he will forget you. Deuteronomy 8:19. Canada was built in christan values. But see, what is happening now. Everywhere woke, homosexual sins, gun violence, drug addiction, lust for money and Power. Because of the innocent blood shed against Indigenous people, Anglo and french Canadians have curse in their generation that the fertility rates are declining. Obviously, country will be sold to other race. Repent of your sins, Canada. Set right with GOD. Go to church which proclaim true gospel.

Well personally I'd rather see hard working indian people in my town, then bums/homeless people who jack the crime rates and steal my shit.

Stop being racist for your own failures in life. Indians in the US UK AUS and Canada have the best education rates, their children excel in Math and Sciences, they have good family morals and values. They arent being handed everything like other communities. I have worked with all types and Indians, Chinese and Jews are successful for a reason. The immigration levels are way too high we can agree on that but stop with the racist crap. I have rented out properties to Indians, Africans, Whites, and ill tell you straight up I have had the whites and blacks skip paying rent and they trashed my apartment in Hamilton ON. The Indian family that i rented to never caused any issues for me.

imigration is fine but when people come here to leave their country for a better life ,,,but come here and bring that life with them and then we are expected to adapt to their way of life ,,,,,,,,come on this is canada ,,,not india , not china not a muslim country ,,,,,,if we went to live in their country then we would have to adapt to their way of life,,,,,this is just wrong............celebrate your old life fine but stop trying to push it on my way in MY COUNTRY,,,,,,,,,,THAT I WAS BORN IN . this problem has been brought on canada by the liberal party and trudeau and the lliberal woke crowd and now its out of control,,,,,the libs did this to get votes ,,,,,,,,,,,,enough ,,,,i remember when i was a young man that people coming to canada for a better life also had to be able to have some funds,,,,,,,but now its the canadian tax payer that is paying for them and giving them free everywhere,,,and then they complain that the food is bad and the free hotels are not good enough ,,,,,,,,,,just look at what is happening in Britian and other countries ,,,,,,,,,its the same thing,,,,,,,and the crime rate has gone out of control .........this is all because of the woke crowd ,,,,,,,enough is enough ,,,,,,when canadians cant afford a home and yet foregenire come and get money etc ,,,,,,,,what is wrong here.

This is the price to be paid. Canada needs desperately imigration, otherwise it will disappear as a nation in 2 or 3 generations.\nBirth rates is too low. Nobody wants kids because life in freezing countries is too expensive due winter gears, hitting, cars, insulation in every building, store or house, gas, salt on streets,  shovelling, mandatory insurance for everything, health care is a joke, and so on. It is endeless. \nCanada is definitely an uninhabitable place. 92% of canadians live very close the US border due the miserable freezing endeless drepressing 9 months cold weather. Nobody wants go north. Freezing weather makes life unbearable and extremely expensive. If we had a free US-Canada border, Canada would  be empty..\n\n.

This whole idea of groups of people taking over and changing a landscape is the cycle of human history. White Europeans aren't the first 'Canadians' lol. It may make people uncomfortable but just deal and remember we are all just humans trying to make a life, have a family and income. Expats do go to other countries and make their own little clubs, take over land and business. People seek opportunities no matter where they go. The only point I would agree with here is that the rate of immigration may not be sustainable with the housing shortage etc.

But ya 100% passing rates for the population and some good hormones robot land lords and a mix of human sympathetic landlords and some Japanese style 200$ a month bachelor's things like that you'd fix homelessness and a lot more then that - Willy 0

That's not true people started using obvious subjagation techniques that you could obviously stop were putting obvious stops to like automated teachers restoring 100% passing rates and stuff people always found out it's to cold to live here anyway - Willy 0

Well, as an immigrant, I am sorry for the Canadians who were born here. The thing is though, until our government can find a way to solve the birth rate problem or labor shortage, mass immigration likely will continue. \n\nMy work contains data analysis of our job market and here is what we found: even with this level of immigration, our labor supply right now in Canada is still slightly below replacement level. In less than a decade, the majority of people in the workforce will retire. This creates two problems: 1) more retirees mean more pension needed from the government; 2) government needs tax money to pay for pensions, but the workforce is shrinking so there will be less tax payers. I don’t see a good solution to this unless some super AI saves the day. Of several bad solutions (gambling is more like it), immigration has a chance of turning things around. But either way, the next generation of workers will be the most overworked and heavily taxed in decades.

Listen as a minority person who is proud of my heritage but grew up here with immigrant parents who were given refuge in Canada, I can understand immigration. But...its getting out of hand, most of them are from India, most of them have homes in India and often return there for long vacations, These are not refugees or a diverse spread of peoples coming here. I am not hateful in any way but sometimes you have to tell it like it is, A lot of these people are not adapting to the culture here, why? Because most of them are grown already and are used to their own customs, with an ever increasing population now living here they don't really feel the need to learn or adapt because there are less regular Canadians. When I was in school it was already pretty multi-cultural and diverse although yes in my area there are less asians and black people, we had a lot of European(Serbian/Romanian) in particular. Now I go to the store and it's like 80% brown/Indian people lol, even my neighbors, most have moved out and more indian families are moving in. My city is expanding into like a mini Toronto when we can't even handle it, people cant even find jobs, people need all this other stuff, Its just too many all at once, crime rates have gone up over the last few years, this doesn't help anyone, immigrants either.

They are taking all the well paid jobs by lying in their resume. They charge 1/5th of what other real professional would charge and they learn on the job all the skills that they have on their resumes. The low rate works for them as they have low living expenses and of course much better than a blue color job as other immigrants do when they first move to Canada until they orient themselves ... Canada for sure is becoming the new India in terms of living standards. (Toronto should be called New Delhi)

It's called either Bramladesh or Bramastan. Highest insurance fraud rates in Canada.

Here are some sobering facts, gleaned from a few Google searches: \n1. The single motherhood rate in Uganda is 30 percent \n2. The single motherhood rate in Africa, as a whole, is around 22 percent , with some African nations, like South Africa, having a single motherhood rate at a whopping 43 percent \n3. The single motherhood rate in India is a paltry 4.5 percent \n \nConclusion: Africa's problem is not colonialism. The problem is weak families, which then produces fractured societies, which make them susceptible to conquest and exploitation - both militarily and economically by cultures that preserve the solidarity of the family.

Growing up in Brampton most of my life and now being able to travel for work I say let them have it. Brampton is over priced and over crowded. High crime rate. No night life. Only a handful of choices for cuisine. Canada is an enormous country and the real shame is not being able to move to another city as easy as it should be when a good for nothing one gets invaded the way Brampton has. I’m currently out in Woodstock and all the new houses in the north of the city is ALL Indians. On any nice day you’d think the neighborhood park is little India with all the aunties and uncles at the benches. The damage is done, this country’s immigration system needs a complete overhaul.

The funny thing is some conservative voters think Pollieve will significantly lower immigration rates ! He won’t because he’s a globalist like Trudeau ! Vote PPC or become Indian , those are your options.

Canada is the poorest G7 country. Lowest FDI, highest inflation rate, highest unemployment rate, the list goes on. For next election, you know who you should vote for.

The laws are a privilege to some now. Oh, and don't forget the privatized police services in Alberta! Oh, and don't forget about how NFL has new government leaders and is trying to take their fisheries away through higher rates. Oh, and don't forget that everything these fucks do around the world is fake. They treat people like experiments still because of their so-called system .

It's good to know that it isn't just Australians who lack empathy. You could always build massive detention centres and lock people away for years, causing huge suicide rates in people who are seeking asylum. \n\nYou should come and visit some detention centres sometime you can bond with a huge part of the Australian population on how people dont have a right to seek out a safe place to live, according to you.

The rising crime rate made it for me. Remember when random attacks were so rare that the public was in shock? Now it's just another day. \n\nSafety was the main selling point of this country to me.

The real problem are politically slanted channels like this one. Don't get your panties in a twist: nothing in this video was a lie. Nothing not true. But like far too much now, it simply seeks to project a vibe to capitalize on the feelings of its targeted audience. Immigrants, drugs and big government, oh my. Is that really all there is to this though? Are your feelings that there are too many immigrants or the simplicity of a solution such as just lowering the price really all there is to it? Ask yourself: what role does the government play in prices that are too high? Does the city of Toronto own the buildings or set the prices? Who does? If the government came in tomorrow with the military and took ownership of all of the buildings and single family dwellings in order to lower their prices and repurpose the land more efficiently for denser urban housing at lower prices, how would you respond to that? Or should the government spend all of the money they are making to buy up properties at market value and then rebuild for more efficient, cheaper and denser housing? What would your response be to that? Immigrants: there are too many. Is it that simple? What would the population of Canada look like in 20 years with just the birth rate of non-recent Canadian citizens (ie no immigrants from the past 15-20 years)? That there is a problem is obvious. Playing on the feelings of group A or group B, showing them the things they fear and presenting it as something everyone does not already know while deliberately ignoring other vital parts of the problem is predatory at best. Your feelings, opinions and gut will solve nothing. Blinding yourself to entire parts of broken systems will solve nothing. Videos and channels like this seek only the engagement that the algorithm demands. It will only deepen the mistrust between citizens and their fellow citizens and citizens and the government, that is, their fellow citizens that have been elected to be said government (not some invading outside force beyond all control) and increase the polarization of groups in an already strained society. It will solve nothing.

With the death rate of the US, Biden is gaining voters every day.

Couldn’t help but notice the ad on the radio telling me how important my credit score was. Yep get us on the payment wheel. Everything must be on credit. If you don’t have credit you don’t have a credit rating you’re a bad person. There’s something fundamentally wrong with this. Paying your electrical bill on time does that give you a good credit score?

Indians are highest earner per capita in USA you know why? Pure hardwork. Indians are lowest in crime rate among others you know why because they respect others and their law.

Milhouse thinks the rate of invasion is fine.

Be careful. British fascists currently in government count foreign students as migrants in annual stats, even though over 90% leave after they finish their studies. \nMigrant workers are the low skilled,low paid workforce who do the jobs that your citizens won’t do unless paid and employed fairly. Deport them and their families go too. \nHow’s your birth rate? Most Western capitalist countries are flatlining because they are all using migrant workers as excuses for their own failures in government and migrant workers tend to have children, who grow up and add wealth to the economy.

Me must increase this rate immediately. They are ruining our economy.\n\nTrudeau needs to go

Prime Minister Trudeau is winning. He has entered Canada into a booming economy for the first time since 2005. Canada has AAA Credit rating 2023.

He'll stop when the birth rate approaches population replenishment rates in Canada. Otherwise, keep it up I want my effin' CPP and OAP payments thank you very much, eh?

Canada is only a 1 or two years ahead of Australia in terms of decline of living standards due to mass migration. Indian migration has destroyed that country. Trudeau here is flat out lying that he cares about the problems immigration that he allowed has caused. He is one of the main proponents of the Century Initiative, Canadas version of the big Australia policy which hopes to see 100 million people in Canada by 2100. At their current rate of migration they will hit that number by the 2040's. Canada is basically doomed and Trudeau is 100% responsible. His legacy will be one of the destruction of Cananda.

Higher taxes, inflation, housing crisis, less job opportunities, increasing crime rate are the few main reasons people are moving out of Canada, I came here almost 18 years ago but now I feel like making a mistake bcoz I don't see future for my kids.....???

High interest rates that almost tripled in a few short months. People have lost their homes due to their inability to pay their mortgages or lines of credit.

Not all of Canada is that bad, Toronto however is starting to go downhill though, too many condos and townhouses and everything's getting really expensive, also the high crime rate too.

With AI coming in the job markets and having the highest immigration rate, it does' t look very promising. Artificial Intelligence already has a tremendous impact on the job market and it's only the beginning.

Birth rate is falling because no one can afford to have children in Canada anymore. Cost of living is so high, can’t afford a home, food etc. Canada is the biggest scam. I’m Canadian and I’m planing to move to Thailand soon.

why is your birth rate falling?

It is a government inspired crisis this time. The Treasury have to sell Bonds to cover the trade imbalance and the government spending imbalance. In order to sell them they have to raise interest rates and the old long-term, low risk, low interest, AAA investments (including Treasury Bonds), held by the banks (often due to government regulatory policy), become next to worthless. The next milestone is the 15th when the government issue a new batch of Bonds. I have approximately 350k stagnant in my portfolio that needs growth. What is the best way to take advantage of this downturn?

Please do your research before moving to Canada or re-locating to another province. The grass IS NOT always greener on the OTHER SIDE. Toronto is a VERY EXPENSIVE city to live in. Think of paying $2,500.00 per month for a one-bedroom apartment, or 1.5 million dollars to buy a home. Do your research! Windsor, Ontario continually has the highest unemployment rate in the country (Canada). This video is VERY misleading.

Canada and the West, in general, need to look to Singapore for a system that works\n\n- Focus on Budget Surpluses- to provide long term political and monetary stability (aka not spending more than they take in)\n- Mandatory High Savings rate (due to CPF, a mandatory savings program that operates like Social Security but doesnt put the cost burden on the next generation)\n- Focus Low Taxes - to attract businesses and incentivize growth\n- A focus on Home Ownership (to make sure citizen have a stake in the country- this leads to more stability)\n- Strong Rule of Law

High rent and crime are problems across Canada right now. Larger cities will be more strongly impacted. \nThe root causes are actually quite simple. It's from decades of downloading responsibility for many services until they ended up in the hands of municipalities who had no capacity to fund them, then made 2x worse by the disastrous immigration policy of just the last few years.\nIt explains all three of the problems you identify, unaffordable rent, high crime rate, and underfunded social services.\nSo these are not problems with Toronto, but at the federal and provincial levels. Simply repeating that there are plenty of better options elsewhere doesn't make it true, unless you can give specific examples. Other places likely pay less, require longer commutes, don't offer small size rentals, have even worse social support, similar crime rates, or some combination of all those factors.\nToronto itself isn't as bad as this video makes it out to be. The downtown core skews all the averages, yet all the reporting, b-roll, and examples seen here seem to focus on the core. Of course the reason why it's worse in the core is because so many people want to live there! But I'm not going to concern myself about people who complain that they can't afford to live urban lifestyle, to be a part of 'the scene'. There are plenty of much more affordable options within a 30 minute subway ride of the core. Well inside city limits. But your friends won't think you're cool, so... oh no!\nYes, rents are still too high outside the core, of course. But they aren't as ridiculous as this video suggests. The city is massive. Grow some humility and find a place to that you can afford to live, within Toronto.

Economies are not built on debt. Canada and most of the world economies are derived from debt. Watch the debt market crumble (interest rates spiking higher and faster) as commodities rise. It's WHEN not IF.

We have been living in the suburb of Toronto for over 40 years, and this was the best city to live in , but Trudeau has made a mess of this country . Cost of living is very high. Traffic is bad. Crime rate is high. Trudeau needs to go.

Went from 40 to 41 million in 9 months and only 10-15 thousand new houses built…… its not kind to invite people into this situation.\nOnly 30+ year old people can afford to have kids, so its 1 or 2 and thats not even replacement rate.

Immigration is viewed as a solution to a slowing economy and all of the problems it brings are ignored as long as the economy is stable and interest rates are low. But it is such a flawed ideology that only serves to diminish national identity, disrupt harmony and create social issues.

What a great video. For my personal experience the current recession and how it has affected the job market and the interest rates (inflation) is the root cause of all this. I also came as student BEFORE COVID and it was also hard to study and work to keep up with your basic expenses BUT at least there were jobs. Now the problem is the lack of jobs. Criminality is very relative and as you mentioned depends of your own expectation and environment prior arriving to Canada. The homeless and drug adicts problem is really concerning, specially here in Vancouver where I live. What I do is avoiding the downtown as much as I can. I would not mind to live in a smaller city or town as long as the salaries are good enough however the problem is that the living cost there are as high as here in the cities.
