I have been in this country all my life and have 2 children who was born here and have college degree. Now they can't even find a job for over 4 months. The sad part is I recently got laid off and I can't even find a job and I have a degree in Civil Engineering. It's unfortunate to see what's happening to Canada. ?

This is why Trump in the US is so popular. Trump policies: #1 he will close the southern border , 15-30 k immigrants a day everyday are allowed to into the US. Some of these immigrants are coming to do harm to the US . They are usually from Muslim countries and African countries. Most coming from South/central America are coming to work in the US , ecape violence/gangs and are also Christians (same religion ). #2 trump stated he will take away birthright citizenship. That is, if both parents are born/citizens from, for example, Syria, then their children born in US will not be granted US citizenship. The children will granted citizenship of their parents. As I watched alot of EU countries Finland, Poland, Lativia closed their borders to immigrants. The US wants to do the same . We gets labeled racists for wanting this same policy. Those EU countries got applauded ??for closing their borders for safety concerned for their citizens. If Canadian or American were to move to either country, we respect them. Americans respect Canadian laws, culture ect . Americans also wouldn't move to Canada or the UK to commit crimes or overthrow the government. We Americans, Canadians and Britts respect eachother, respect culture and would move there to be productive part of our new host country ??❤ ?? ❤ ??

Cowards .. cowards.. I'm a mother of 2 I will and give everything I have if anyone could facilitate me to go to Gaza, I can cook meals, I can take care thir children's.. I will try to do everything to ease their hardship ?

They’ve just trying to fined a better life for their families . They want good housing and schools for their children just like us . Hate never solves anything it just adds to the problems . Let’s be part of the solution and help with this transition . That’s how you make America great again . Help a fellow man out . Love conquers all things .

Canada and U.S. are almost the same, high rate of taxes/cost of living/rent, etc. but anyone who wants more opportunity for their children, just have to be patient especially for new immigrants because when I immigrated here in the U.S. way back on 1979, I had my family with me, my wife (pregnant) and 4-daughters, ages 8, 6, 4, 2 that even I am a civil engineer and a Captain with the PA, worked in Saudi Arabia for 1 year, I started working as a security guard, then draftsman, engineering associate, manufacturing operator, etc. and now retired with my children & grandchildren enjoying their lives, have good jobs.

I feel so bad for the children...

I am a 4th generation Canadian, I loved this country so much and was so proud to be the few, the polite, the north, strong, and free. We prioritized the native land and culture, we cared about our neighbours, we worked hard but weren’t consumed by greed. \nNow, I am taking my family to the US in hopes to give my children hope of a better future, we aren’t welcome home anymore.

You can thank Biden and his administration, Worst President we ever had, And if Kamala gets elected, It will be the second worst President, Look what they did to this country, More drugs, More crime, Immigrant children in our schools, Hospitals, While US citizens are suffering, Less health care, Higher cost, Higher taxes, Our grandfather's, father's, And other us citizens Work Hard for the American dream, That American dream is disappearing, More so In the lasts 3 and a 1/2 years, Thank the Biden administration

how do you feel now when you taste your own drugs? do you realize or yet to realize that, how do you discriminate basis of caste and class basis brutality spread on the basis of fake religion ...you are such a shameless. Obviously, all higher caste people are in politics, the higher caste people are protecting reservation, they want it. So that they could get all the benefits, highest greedy level of people you all and YET STILL BLAMING TO ALL LOWER CASTE, YOU ALL ARE ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING the rights of education in ancient India was solely to higher caste people perticularly Brahmins, the Aryans, the education was reserved only for perticular people of India, higher castes that control entire Hinduism. And they wrote all the history as per their convenience, modified it and destroyed the real belief and real history. most of the people get jobs in India because already someone from their upper class and caste seating there holding the jobs; they have control over everything, even they buy seats for their childrens like doctors etc. you just need to write god's name on exam sheet and you get marks. So they give jobs to their communities and castes, it is not intelligent basis.. even Indian court judges, bureaucracy even MPs and MLAs. It is called bootlicking, recommendations etc. the higher community, class people are already there that's why they get the jobs

Some Palestinians need refuge but no Arab country will take them , the country is at war, which the Palestinians started in massacre of babies, women , men and children. Arab countries just watch.

Imagine this guy boosting about Canadian as if they own the land. Canadian are the Europeans, and these Europeans are bandits who just colonised world and stole money and build their empire. The empire were not built by so called Canadian, rather labour from Asia and Africa whose blood and sweat is in there.\n\nYou gentlemen the anchor, imagine you are going to get the return out of what you are doing today, may be not you but your children. This can be long story to tell, but to cut short, you don't own the land. It's everyone.

Why can't the Canadian government take this stance? We want the Gazans to stay where they are. They should have to find peace the same way everyone else does. Treat your neighbors with respect, build your cities, not tunnels, and teach your children good morals.

Bisexual? I wonder how many children he has back home.

Before anything else, I think the Canadian government should of been taking care of their own Canadian people. Who have no where to live and are struggling to feed their children & survive. I see imagrints driving new cars and have houses and Canadians are living in campers.

Guns are the number 1 killer of children in the united states, you should be having that conversation.

Women and children? Maybe. But men? No, gather together and take back control of your country.

PEOPLE THINK IT'S EASY IN AMERICA IT USED TO BE. NOT ANYMORE!! I'M DISABLED ON SSI, MY CHECK IS ON $941, AND CALIFORNIA WANTS $2895 FOR A ONE BEDROOM SO, WTF MAKE Y'ALL THINK IT'S OKAY TO BE HERE. WE ARE BARELY MAKING OURSELVES WITH NO HELP. I SLEEP IN MY DAUGHTER'S LIVING ROOM. I CAN'T WAIT ??? MOVE. FAMILY AND FRIENDS DON'T WANT TO HELP AND OUR CHILDREN DON'T GIVE A DIYAMN ABOUT THEIR ELDER PARENTS. PEOPLE ALWAYS TELLING BLACK PEOPLE TO GO BACK THEIR COUNTRY, BUT AMERICA IS LETTING THESE RAMDON AZZ PEOPLE UP IN HERE. STAY YALLS AZZES IN YOU COUNTRY

I give Canada its due but these regards about the US are wildly out of context. \n\nWe joke in meetings. I am a senior now and work normal hours around 40 unless the job needs more. Our children are taught to work together. \n\nAnyone who thinks they have “free” healthcare doesn’t earn a paycheck. You pay a lot of money for that “free “ healthcare.

Not to worry, more room for money launderers, gangsters, and children of rich corrupt government officials.

They're always brave against women and children.

US government is too generous with welfare, schooling, healthcare, food stamps, English as a second language and financial AID, and housing to undocumented folks...USA policies are too generous and a magnet for undocumented folks the world over and at the same time unable to adequately help veteran, mentally ill, american impoverished children, usa jobless and homeless, many of women come over pregnant siting the 14th amendment to constitution orthey'll have several babies i n several years, and tgey know better about benefits to age 18 better than natural born citizens.

Ironically due to the economic conditions and mass immigration, younger Canadians aren’t having children anymore due to it being hard enough to get by without any dependents. I’m in my mid 20s, lots of married friends, none will entertain the idea of kids.\n\nWhat I would prioritize changing:\nA more thorough immigration process that does not favour any country over another. And spread the people out to the smaller communities that need workers instead of turning Toronto into whatever it is. An end to the corporate alliance price fixing on things like insurance, cell phones, and air travel. Reduced taxes for your first property, but additional if you own several (a system similar to what Norway does). Reduced foreign ownership in our home real estate market (home should be for families, and not financial assets for international businesses).\n\nAnd like the video said some more darn infrastructure. In my childhood, I saw entire neighbourhoods being built in - timely fashions. Now it’s rare to see a single home under construction in my home city. Some smaller Canadian towns I know even lack potable water.\n\nWith the market so bad no one wants to build or buy which is just amplifying the issue.\n\nAnd no carbon tax. I apologize for getting political, but the last 10 years the federal government seems to be more concerned with values and foreign intervention than fiscally responsible decisions. The culture can dictate the values, I just want the government to make the trains run on time.\n\nI hope it gets better soon but I think we are cooked. Least for the foreseeable future.\n\nIt’s ludicrous to be taxed as much as we are here as well. If ur gonna take 40% of my paycheck least make sure its being put to good use. Had to do a double take last time I was in BC and the bill included a “carbonated beverage tax”

i am sure the freedom fighters of ww2 would be so proud of their selfless sacrifice for England and it's neighbouring countries , i'm glad i have no children ...... i mean that unquestionably without reservation!! long live old uk....poor souls..you tried your best

The demographic problem was well understood 25 years ago but Canadians decided to have vacations and BMW's instead of children. Actions have consequences.

Canada must repeat what it did in the 1930's and the 1940's. Canada needs to bring 5 million immigrants from Eastern Europe, like Poland, Portugal, Romania, Ukraine, Serbia, Bosnia, Lithuania, Estonia, Hungary, Macedonia etc. Just look at the Eastern Europeans in Canada, they and their Canadian born children and grandchildren have learned and speak the English language fluently. In Canada, people speak English and French. The British and the French values must be upheld. God save the King.

Claro, aquí tienes la traducción al inglés:\n\nWhen people use arguments about the job and housing crisis to speak against migration, it’s a dead discourse. People will not give up on a better life; they are not bothered by the idea that Canadian children might not have entry-level jobs or that rents might be higher because they still have a better life. European ancestors didn’t mind coming here and harming the First Nations. The world is built this way, based on winners and losers. The most organized group will always oppress the less organized one, and unfortunately for you, Canadians, you are less organized.

of course you need to be qualified to be an engineer, a teacher or a doctor lmao!!! would you want some random person to teach your children without background checks...you guys are being soooo extra

This rhetoric is turning into a platitude. The question is, what do the citizens and residents need to do to help their country? First of all, acknowledge the LORD God Almighty that the nation proclaims in their anthem. There is one GOD and that is Jesus Christ. Make it abundantly clear to migrants that they are entering a Christian nation. \n\nSecond, get married, stay married, and have children. Ditch Feminism.

You can make alot of money trafficing the woman and children ?

So why West took all the Arab refugees, but Arabs won't even take Palestinian women, children and old people?

You come to Canada for your children’s future. All those problems in settling down in Canada may be worth suffering. No country can afford to offer all benefits on a platter. Immigration means, hardship hard work but long term rewards.

It isnt an immigration crisis. Immigration doesnt stand alone as a political policy. We have looked at immigration through the lens of demographics. Canada is facing a crisis of demographics which immigration is helping to solve. As baby boomers begin to retire and millenials stop having children, in 10 years Canada will face a massive deficit in workers. So much so that the only solution is to open our borders and train new young families to fill all the employment spots that are begging to open up. The average joe on the internet cant see Canada in 20, 30, and 50 years from now. We have good politicians that can. Its their job.

I feel sorry for your children and the racism that you espouse

As a child from Northen Europe ?? I remember when my grandmother told me about our distant relatives living in Canada ( due to war) and how powerful, rich and fair country this is and that everyone has good life there. Now, 25-30yrs later everything has changed. Big part of Europe and Northern-America aren’t the same anymore due to mass immigration. Even my own country with only 1,3 million population ( Estonian 69.1%, Russian 23.7%, Ukrainians etc). We have taken in quite a lot ukrainian war refugees, who atleast share the same values as we do. But I still see a lot of people in the street wearing burkas and our demographic is changing. People need to stand up for theirselves and protect their countries heritage and culture or otherwise there won’t be anything left for our children. My parents/ elders fought for their right to become free country and Estonia took back it’s independence in 1991.

We love immigrants *and* diversity in Canada. All my friends are immigrants or children of immigrants. \n\nHowever, importing exclusively Indians is *not* diversity. It is not diversity when it is all a singular group. Doing this has created division among Canadians unlike I have ever seen before. \n\nOur government is exploiting these people and using them to perpetuate the housing crisis by cramming 10+ of them in a 2br that is owned by a corporation and rented to students with no legal protections. Our landlord/tenant bureau is *so* overwhelmed that these exploited students have literally no recourse - their visas expire before their case is even heard. \n\nBRING BACK DIVERSITY. You want to talk DEI? How about equal numbers of immigrants from different regions around the world instead of *just* India!!!

What if you go there with your family like wife, children

Didn't the First Nations felt the same about the overwhelm influx of white people who took their children?

One youtuber @mumbikernikhil go there for his wife's delivery so that his children gets citizenship of canada

Pls i want to register my children, but CV standard for canada is the problem, can u get me copies to go through?

Indians and their children are complicit. Innocents in gaza are being killed, but guilty Indians are living, what a disgrace

Please make video on reducing the population n encourage new couples to have only 1 child policy in india since the children cost is going to be expensive.

As a Canadian, I am okay with immigration but this is out of control. Not only are we allowing too many people in but it’s not a diverse group. It seems so be nothing but Middle Eastern men. A lot of them are very disrespectful and creepy towards children (speaking from multiple personal experience la with my daughter). This needs to stop

In USA also same position so much drugs main same medical issue dental issue depot issue so make video on USA also show other children who are deciding to go for your study to USA so they can also check everything and they cannot spend parents retirement money

Sir, the large population in India makes you feel worthless even if you have any skills. When you go to a client, they don't offer even half the amount that your work is worth. If you refuse, they say, 'No problem, we will find someone else.' Shockingly, they do find someone who will work for less money. There will always be someone willing to work for less. Additionally, the government doesn't really care about poor people; they see them as garbage. Privileged children also make fun of the poor to look cool \n\n- If things are expensive in Canada, it means they value someone's skills. Anyone with good skills will not feel worthless.

my family immigrated in the 1950s because they needed workers here and it was difficult to assimilate but they pretended to be canadian and had canadian children and it worked. but now i’m going back to their country and escaping canada since it is impossible to live here now. the irony ??

First of all that was not riots that was *SIKH GENOCIDE*. In 1984, sikh were intentionally targeted and 8000 innocent sikhs were killed. \n\nEven hindus always tell their children that how mughals misbehaved with them. Thus Sikhs should also tell their children about 1984 Sikh Genocide. \n\nAll Sikhs must know that hindus are not trustworthy and how brutally sikhs were killed. \n\nShame on each hindu who even harmed a Sikh. Sikhs protected hindus from vanishing at the time of mughals. Still hindus make fun of sikhs and make jokes on them.

I am a Canadian and I have seen the sharp decline of Canada over the past decade which makes me very sad. According to many 'experts' they paint a dire picture of the nations future as the rate of inflation spirals out of control and we are buried beneath a mountain of debt. On the ground level, homelessness is an epidemic that the powers that should not be seem to want to sweep under the rug, while they race bait and spout off about woke ideology. They are more worried about transgender rights and castrating children while with anyone with eyes to see are witnessing the very breakdown of their society around them, people are dying in the streets from fentanyl overdose. My wife volunteered at our old church which catored to the homeless and I have known many that are no longer with us, nobody wants to acknowledge it because they do not want to face the fact that they are fellow human beings. In the end no one is better than any one else, it is all vanity.?\nIt would seem like we are run by lunatics with severe cognitive dissonance by the fact that we have mass immigration while are own \npopulation is suffering, I admit that mental health and addictions are potent variables that constitute the crisis, I am not niave to those facts. I myself have had long term Sobriety. But it is odd that only a decade ago, homelessness /addiction were problems confined to major cities like Vancouver and Toronto, and now we have tent cities in almost every town with a population of more than 20 thousand people. It would seem like utter stupidity to keep pouring water into a bucket that is overflowing. I suspect that their is an agenda and the destruction of our nation is a part of it, it is a well known fact that the Trudeau government is in bed with Klaus Schwab and the World Economic Forum. I don't care if you call me a racist, that is a luxury for those who live in gated communities, who create the problem and want to muddy the waters. These elites like to accuse others of what they are guilty of, they are anti human bigots, eugenicists who are ideologically captured, any one who bandies the around words like racist and homophobia, Islamophobia etc. are either those operating with an agenda or a useful idiot.

You always complain like children
