Shut the door until we get our country back...

Reddit is a very leftist platform and so these types of responses were predictable. A lot of it would have been true in the 70s and 80s but these are Canadian stereotypes that people are desperately holding onto. More and more things are being delisted from our healthcare coverage, meaning that I often hear of people getting charged out of pocket. I was surprised 3 years ago when my doctor ordered a cancer screening after I was suffering a digestive issue. I was not prepared to pay out of pocket for something as essential as cancer screenings. This sort of thing always used to be covered. It was always covered by our much higher cost of living and our higher taxes. If my taxes keep going up, I expect services to get better, not to decline like they have been. Our seniors are afraid to go to the doctor these days. Suicide is being offered to them instead of proper care and treatment. After they had spent decades working and paying into the system they are being shut out.

After that happened they shut the entrance down to one lane for the car's to cross the bridge. What a mess. Way to go China Joe

Shunty bhai....shut your mouth who is making jokes of born Indians who has made india proud by their hard work...shame on you

That is nonsense...get the military after them...shut it down hard.

You girls think Canada is Nigeria or Africa with your selfish thinking. Thank God for Canada and shut up because it’s still far better than your Nigeria, i beg

Those who are not happy should just go back home instead of falsifying information, after they came to visit once their visit is done, why are they here! Alternatively shut up!

One of violent foreign country tries to invade your border you have the right to defend your border including shooting such such trespassers of the country open fire boys it's about time to shut down the border and that's my opinion and what needs to be

Thank you that served our country. Men and women fought for our country and this is a slap in the face. Washington did this and they won't shut it down. I wouldn't be shocked if we found they got money just coming over here..

Being in diaspora, i can't put this kind of info to my people in kenya because they believe i don't want people to benefit.\nI try to urge people to stay in Kenya and atleast get a degree but no one listens.\nI have been told that i don't want other people to get greener pastures, i have been called selfish and evil, so i decided to shut up and mind my business.

I immigrated from Africa to the US then I made my way to Canada 20 years ago. Life has changed from the time we first moved here. Before with 5k Canadian dollars you would put down for a mortgage and get into the housing market. From 2015 when the Liberals came in power housing market has gone downhill for most even those earning middle class income. \n\nIf you desire to come make sure you have the right paper work. If you are coming as a foreign trained professional. You are okay. Otherwise, make sure you have immediate family willing to help you untill you get on your feet. DON'T COME as a visitor without family to ask for refugee status. You will suffer. Most of those stranded in Toronto are those seeking asylum and shelters are full with those who came from newyork when the borders where shut.\n\nOtherwise if you can pay your bills in Africa just stay there, atleast you have morals. Our elementary schools ? are terrible here with those LGB****%$# stuff pushed on children.

Kenyans kenyans kenyans ? you have started with canada the same way you guys did with saudi ikafungwa sasa back home people are suffering even more? if it doesn't suit you let those who can do....Canada is the best country to immigrate to ? now since the media us meddling your government is about to shut this thing down ?? FYI hao wako down town Toronto they are asylum seeker's and lazima wakue hapo ndio wasaidika and they are not all kenyans wengi ni Ugandans na west Africans

The main reason why Indians come to Canada is simply because USA has shut them off. If USA opens its doors today , Canada will bear a deserted look....Plain and simple.

I currently pay $734.96 per month for my bachelor apartment in Parkdale, Toronto. All inclusive. I found the place in 2015, and it started at $660.00 per month. It's a smaller building where I know most of my co-tenants. Quiet neighbourhood most of the time. I've been one of the lucky ones for sure. I love this city! I'm from Peterborough and I will never move back. Some of the best memories of my life have been here. But you're right Alina, it has changed. Much like most other major cities in the world. The economic hardships being the #1 issue. Rent going up, wages staying the same, and inflation not slowing down. But with Toronto, the transit system is far behind the progress of cities like New York. Toronto should have multiple subway lines going east and west. Queen St. and Dundas lines for sure. The overall culture of the city is not as vibrant as it was during the 2010s. That could be Covid related. Or things are taking awhile to come back to pre-Covid form. But a lot of great venues and restaurants have been shutting down. And being replaced with the construction of condos. The real estate is insane here. It feels like things have gone downhill since the Raptors won the NBA championship in 2019. Because that really united everyone when there were a million people gathered for the parade. I'm hoping things turn around and there's more affordable housing for newcomers. I know I'm staying here for a while longer. Because of my cheap rent. And career attachments to the city. Great job on the video! ?

Shut the doors and send the crooked ones back home.

Selective shutting of Five Eyes.

Liberal destruction. You can see it all over in the states. All the democrat states are being destroyed just like this. Massive amounts of homeless. Criminals basically running around doing whatever they want. Businesses shutting down and leaving because their tired of the criminals pillaging their places of business. People keep voting these fools in so that's what they get.

india has the capabilities to develop 12k+ range missiles...India should build that ignoring the world pressure...because only neuclear weapons can shut down American hypocrasy ...like north korea done previously....i know they have protective systems ..but any system does not fully protect them from a neuclear war...like pakistan strategy

Immigrant poop hole=crime, scams, rip off RE and Apts. If you challenge anything you are cancelled. Told to shut up and your freedom is over.

Actually INDIAN government is planning to shut it's Jails instead just give a visa to CANADA to get rid them from our Nation ?

Right after this guy got killed.. India shut down Visas

This Administration doesnt care about the U.S. What a joke. Shut the border down. Send our National Guard!!

Do we have a government in office? And I aint talking about just just President Biden cause hes d*** show not doing his job, but the republicans and the democrats. You all need to address this border. S***, this is going on too long. It's time to shut that s*** down. Making people turn their a**** around and go home and end about 10 million of the ones that already got through over the past 10 years need to round all day a**** up and send them back as well. And then I have to get through sending him back. There's another 30 million that's over here illegally. And it's not okay, it's making it hard for the Americans that has to live here. And it's not right to the taxpayers that work hard every day. Yeah, you illegal aliens. Ya'll might get over here and take a job from someone else. And yeah, Uncle Sam, take taxes out of your check. But you still, you're taken from other Americans, it's not right. It's time to go back, what's wrong? It's not my fault, and it's not our fault. What's wrong is the same thing? That's wrong, and our government is wrong in your government. Corruption corruption kills so corruption need to be killed. One way or another to have a better country and a better government. You have to rude out the poison.

America is in so much trouble, Biden has cost Americans, what they have no clue about, All this is over the top,, Yet no one want to talk about the elephant, Shut down Blacks in their own country, Its not goung to work, not now , Trump knew, Yet the so called civil, racial war they hope for, will not be what they hope for, Judgement must still come, And the people of this lland will also still be here, Before 1492, on and on til Christ comes comes

SHUT OFF OUR BORDERS CLOSE AMERICA CLOSE AMERICA THIS IS A INVASION CLOSE THE BORDERS

I’m born & raised in Montreal, Quebec and while it’s extremely multicultural and has an incredible education system, we have been experiencing a continuous housing crisis. Every year the rent prices and general cost of living are skyrocketing yet wages remain the same. It’s actually becoming a huge problem in Montreal. Young people are being pushed out as prices are starting to little by little be comparable to Toronto. \nAnd don’t get me started on the hate Anglophones receive here. Even Montreal natives like myself who are historically English get discriminated against every day. \nThe Quebec government is pushing the English language out of Quebec, making it harder and harder for Anglophones to be able to function and live practically here. You can’t even go to the hospital and get service. If you don’t speak French you can’t call and speak with any government services, and even businesses are forced to have French names, and only conduct their business in the French language. \nI myself am bilingual, but for someone who doesn’t speak the language, or is learning having trouble it’s nearly impossible to live in Quebec as they wouldn’t even be able to get a job. The discrimination Anglophones receive is insane and we are seen as a ‘bottom of the barrel’ minority, which is so sad seeing that this is where I was born and raised and where I call my home. \nThey’re taking away more and more public & social services and literally funnelling multi millions of dollars of funding , which is desperately needed for homelessness and many other social problems we have within Montreal and it’s all now going towards pushing the French language in Montreal (we literally have what’s called the ‘language police’ who’s job is to enforce French. They will give businesses thousands of dollars of tickets and even shut them down all because someone is caught speaking English) \nHopefully something will change soon or else Montreal is going to continue to become a place completely taken over by hate and discrimination and it will experience a MASS exodus (which is already starting).

Oga shut up come back and stop yaning nonsense

Canadian immigration system is broken to need to shut down the borders. Keep these people out.

Sad..the ones who do make it in commit crime in the US n blame the blk man.. So it's sad that the good ones don't make it in... but they should do what other countries do with large numbers like this... they team up n go for their leader n vote somebody new in...but they rather just run to another country instead...n refuse to learn English but will fight to get here...sigh we got Mexicans here who still can't get a green card but yet they want to skip steps to get in... we have kids from gratulama right now mad that they don't know where their parents are n mad asf they live here not realizing they parents got them here to make the best of it not be a maddening thorn to society about being here...like show them this n they should shut up.... it's unfortunate the only way to protect our borders is capital punishment n the US just isn't that cruel but if they see the large mass of .... the borders wouldn't look like this cause they will know they aren't gonna live if they cross this line...sad reality with what our ancestors did but it makes awful sense using fear for order sigh...

We Africans want only free stuff. People must work. The road you drive on must be maintained, the electricity must be maintained then where do Africans think the funds will come from. He is there because it is better than where he comes from. People worked to reach that life standard so Africans must build their continent or shut up. I am an African100%

“He went in, shut the door and let’s go”\n\nXi waddled into the back rooms

i lived in manitoba for 9 years, from the age of 5 to 14. i got so used to the cold that the fact alberta shut down school busses at -25 was shocking. my elementary school in winnipeg made us stay outside for recess unless it was -28??

They are killing Americans with their Drugs Chemical Warfare and now invading the Country illegally this is a war and we are losing America eyes are Wide Shut?

Biden administration openly welcomes ISIS and is shutting down ICE divisions across the country. We have a Trojan Horse in the white house. Please pray for America and pray the politicians wake up from their demonization. Only God can help Amerca now.

Thank God i left Canada 21 years ago. In the 90s it was a decent place. But when my company shut down i couldnt find a job in the same field (stock broker, investmentbank). Moved to US & made 6 figure income tax free as i was working in Florida on H1B Visa. In USA u can earn more money than ??

Shut down ❤❤❤

Canada education and immigration; An oversold dream to Punjabis\n\nPunjabis make a beeline if there is any opening to move to west, Canada encashed this weakness to the hilt.\n\nThey used to allow graduates to migrate on point basis or for education, suddenly they allowed Plus 2 students to come to Canada for education; net result, everyone who crossed the teens, started dreaming of Canada, most private colleges, even engineering colleges got shut down in the Punjab as most preferred to study graduation in Canada.\n\nAnother development took place in Punjab, every nook and corner of every city, even small towns,have an IELTS coaching centre, charging huge money to coach and Punjabis think that clearing the IELTS test is a ticket for settlement.\n\nThe net result is, there are manipulators who manipulate admissions in shady places and ultimately students suffer on arrival in Canada.\n\nThe reality check of Canada today is; there are students who are not getting part time work even, the inflation is very high and they are having a tough time surviving there.\n\nThere is a need to monitor the dream sellers in Punjab so that students are not exploited.\n\nBottom lines\nEducation in Canada is just an illusion, I don't think most students go there to study, or get employed in the line they have studied, they are mostly allowed to migrate in the garb of education; Canada gets labour that runs their universities with their own funds, before joining the workforce.

They probably heard trumps running again and know the border will be shut down

Shut down all boarders….

I think we all should be treated equally I think boarder crap is bs their alo MIt job hiring people don't wanna work let them come over and fill jobs so places with shutting down and business closing not enough help

Fuck that American citizens need the money and assistance. It’s not our fault that their countries are Incapable or corrupt. America can’t be everyone’s home sorry. SHUT THE BOARDER ASAP. We need troops there

Borders need to be shut. I’m tired of these people acting as dead weight for our country

They shut down the Venezuelans because the democrats know they hate socialism. This whole thing is for votes.

Shut up lady, Canada needs borders!

If someone is shouting, I just shut my ears

3000 people died on 9/11 and they can’t shut up about it…\n20,000 people died in shootings in 1 year and it’s fine…

No your education system is not good. You have a few good universities but your k through 12 is rated as one of the worst of the 1st world countries on the world wide education scale. Compared to Canadians you do seem batshit crazy. You let your kids get shot in schools. It makes no sense that you take away women's rights to save children but let them get shot in schools. So one right is more important than another!!! You let citizens die of rather simple diseases because of lack of health care. Not that there are not racist people or religious zealots but nothing compared to the US and it is shut down pretty quickly here. Many more of us are intolerant of that ignorance than US citizens.

Shut the F up CNN you were cool with this just a few years ago..... Now that the elites know biden can't win a 2nd term even if it's rigged they're dropping him so quickly

This is no different then a invasion from another country! Why are we not shutting the border down and if they cross like this it is the same as war so defend the border like war! If you come legally then I say welcome!!
