As a Canadian i do hope the best for everyone but the fact that our government is just allowing anyone who dam well feels like it to cross into our country is just sick and most of the people are destroying motels racking up bills and its Canadian tax payers that must flip the bill none of us should be happy about that i so hate Justin Trudeau for turning Canada into a joke he should be fixing this country and stop helping the rest of the world he has no god dam right doing all that he did.

trudope is a traitor to Canada and Canadians, he is not looking out for us .. he wants votes and will let illegals in to get it...we must vote him out. he is giving false hope to people like this

Let Trudeau do this. His country will soon learn what it costs, when the USA no longer sets the example of welcoming everyone, whether tired or weary. And let Trudeau's example set an example to other nations so immigrants whether illegal or not, can go to other parts of the world to succeed and be productive people regardless of race creed or colour. \nI hope Trudeau is able to put his money where his mouth is, and I also hope the USA will continue to support our friend and neighbor.\nPeace! ?

I can't afford a hotel room if I want to go for a short trip just for a change to get away for a rest from my job and boring everyday life. Trudeau is giving a hotel room for people who never worked a day in Canada. You watch me figure how I'm gonna figure out to cheat every tax dollar I can. I hope everyone should do the same.

Trudeau was only voted in from a lot of people that wanted to see pot legal, now close to elections he is putting that into effect ,hoping every one is going to be stoned and vote for him ! Many many angry Canadians that see what he is doing to our Country !

While watching this- I see a guy who cares. I see a guy who wants to start his life. It just looks a lot to me like somebody who instead of working for 50 years and retiring- wants retirement and money- NOW. I know El Salvador is incredibly dangerous and money opportunities slim... but you just can’t save them all. The great cloud lingering over the heads of everyone born into a free land. There are billions of stories like Josè, however there are not billions of spots in the free world for these people. Some are luckier than others. Some work harder than others. Some try to accomplish with a fervor not matched by 90% of the world. It’s not fair- it’s not equal. It’s life, it’s suffering, it’s hardship. I hope the best for Josè and his family

People need to learn you can’t just hop the border and hope that you’re automatically going to become a citizen. \nThat’s what happened under obama. Rumors got out if they came to the US they would be granted amnesty. That’s when we saw a huge influx of illegals riding on trains and large numbers crossing the border etc. BO never corrected that rumor and allowed folks in then created DACA. \nWe have laws!\nAnd to top it off he’s cheating the system by moving to a different part of Canada to be put at the bottom of the list and buying time.

lil potato man gave false hope to people who were admitted law breakers, stupid!!

Why can't more of these people follow suit and head to North to Canada? On the bright side, with California bring so welcoming to these illegals more and more are leaving other states and flocking there. And I live in Boston so I'm as far away from there as you can get. I'm hoping that California continues to give more and more rights to illegals. California can turn to shit as long as it ensures that the other 49 states will remain nice...

Even if they do try to do it the legal way sometimes they are not granted with any type of visa or green card. The government can deny their application for many reasons. So they end up crossing the border illegally. As well it is cheaper to cross the border than to apply for a visa or some sort of legal document. Many of these “lawbreakers” you suggest to be in jail have tired to do everything the legal way but it didn’t work out. Immigrants risk their lives and their love ones to have a better life, to be able to work to be able to have things that it’s impossible to have in their country. They are innocent people with dreams and hopes I don’t know why ya are so quick to judge. Try to put yourself in their place, and try to be open minded and listen.

I'm sure our country has GIVEN billions of dollars to the countries South of us that was supposedly to help build their country improve. But, you know corrupt politicians, both there and hear, have all taken their cuts and left the people of those countries without any hope. Drain our swamp and help drain their swamp.

America has been enduring this huge onslaught for decades. Hopefully, Canada now realizes why Americans want a border wall. We’re drained, and tired of this, and Mexico tries to help people enter the USA illegally, too.

Lol, the funniest part about most shoplifters is that they are usually white and the only reason they don't get caught is because no one is watching them or cares if they steal. Even when a worker sees them stealing, they let them get away with it. Smdh. I've seen it many times. One specific time some white guy walked so casually into the beverage aisle at Walmart, put 4 packages of 4 pk Redbull in his backpack, and walked away like nothing happened. Another time, this white guy went to the bulk candy section, loaded up his bag, security SAW HIM and stared at him leaving the store AND DID NOTHING! This white guy I used to work with ALWAYS STOLE HIS LUNCHES and jokingly admitted that he stole cause NO ONE WATCHES HIM OR CARES IF HE DOES! I SEE IT ALL THE TIME! So you little white people watching everyone else, I hope you all lose billions since you love to watch other people and not your own, LMAO!

I hope these people leave our country cause issues are going to occur. freedom of choice? Ok then my choice is to hate Muslims and that is my choice so bear it and go back to your country, or wait till we get rid of Trudeau and you will be gone

Canada has done extremely well for Immigrants, and we spend a lot of money on making sure we get hard working decent citizens.. We've recently made it easier for people to immigrate here. We welcome it. But it does have to be done legally. And yes, I agree with everyone else here. 15 years in English countries, and doesn't speak it himself is disgusting. I bet he'd learn the word food fast if he was starving. Also, those kids need to be in school. I hope he's not hiding them too cause they'll never learn English then.

The comments are giving me cancer....no empathy whatsoever to this man who just wants to make a living with his family. I hope you people get stoned

The Canadian president is a moron he tries to throw this out for publicity it backfires because he doesn't necessarily live in the poverty and the desperation at Immigrant families living so he doesn't know that when they hear him say something it's going to spread like wildfire and communities are going to shift and things are going to change and then he goes on the defensive sending some a****** to Los Angeles to tell everybody their hopes are false inshort that's all he said at least in this documentary he probably just wanted high-skilled immigrant labor for cheap not blue collar workers and either way Canada belongs and will always belong to indigenous people no matter how many people speak French in that cold-ass funky place from Cali with love we are all citizens of Earth can't wait till this old mentality goes away under the truth

Trudeu has done what Merkel did. Saying one thing for show, making people believe that they can go, then once the people get there, it's shown that thse words where just hot air. Merkel even backed everyone up in Hungary (see the Eastern Railway incident) and put the blame on the Eastern European countries for not being humane. ?\nCanada's darling dear did the same thing here and everyday people hoping for a new life get the sharp end of the deal. \nI don't see why this moma's boy is so idealised. He's just spouting popular rot, then backing out. A nation leader should take care what he/she says, otherwise you're just another style of Trump to me.

I thought America stretch always to Brazil how are these people foreign to these lands. why is it that we have some sector of our populations teaching these lies. HOPE PEOPLE START REALIZING WHATS WHAT. LOVE TO ALL GET KNOWLEDGE THEN KNOWING AND DOING. NO ONE WILL BE ABLE TO TELL U WHO U ARE U WILL KNOW. BECOME MORE SOVEREIGN IN ONES SELF AND COSMOS. STRIVE TO BE A BETTER BEING.

Trudeau should not have given these people false hope, he should have been clear!

Living in Latin America is not that bad, well there are parts where you should avoid at all cost but there are places where you can have a safe decent life, most of you just say what comes out of your small little brains without ever even leaving your city your whole life. Its just that this people have lived and been so dependent from your system and in stretching their hands( beg) all this time that they not know what to do now. \n\nHe said that he wasted 15 thousand dollars in lawyer, if it would have been me I could have perfectly moved to lets say Costa Rica or Peru and still have money to buy land. But they really are addicted to this kind of life. I agree that the people in El salvador have made violence to sky rocket because they have not done nothing about it, they left gangs and violence to proliferate and now its just too late for them. But there is still hope in other places in Latin America.

This is the result when America intervenes in other nations. Latin American, Caribbean and any other western hemisphere nations have been effected by the past corrupt administrations. People can blame Trump, which he does hold some fault, but this is been going on for decades and I hope these nations can learn and actually represent your people and not the imperialism of America. Just the truth. Don't believe me? Look at Iraq, Libya, Syria and those are the mainstream ones.

i hope these Muslim people are working really hard and looking after their family by their own money and not getting any benefits from Canadian government as child benefit or housing benefit like UK !!\nBecause in UK most of these people dont work and they dont pay tax ,plus each family got minimum 4 kids and the government have too look after them and pay for their house rents ...I dont understand why the UK government not stopping that!!! .

Most of this is bullshit...I hope people are smart enough to recognize it.

I would very much like the muslims to tell us real Canadians what contributions that they are making to our country as a whole. How are they making life in Canada better? How are they bringing stability and growth to our country? They spend time teaching their silly little book to the people in their flock but nothing about Canada, our values, our hopes and aspirations for the country. The silly little book does nothing to further the common good of Canada. It only forwards the wants of the muslim community.\nAnd finally, religion is the bane of intellectual thought. No one and I mean no one, can know about the mind of a god that does not exist.

thanks cbc for making nice video.. i hope some people will learn from it.

I find that with each generation, the issue with racism becomes slightly less and less, which is great considering slavery was abolished only for about 100 years. I find that living in Canada as a black millenial is much better then say living in the 70s. I never faced racism the entire time i grew up here. but then again I haven't been everywhere in Canada. I think the most you'll experience here right now is indirect racism in the small towns. but you just have to show them who you really are and most will be OK. I don't think a lot of the people still have the mindset left in the 1900s. especially not in the major cities where its so diverse. but there's racism everywhere no matter what you look like. I hope everyone can look past appearance and stereotypes some day.

why don't the people in London take a stand and put these assholes in their place or get red of them ? you have my blessings and hell I'm Saudi \n\nif you don't like the rules of their country just fuck off back to wherever you came from\n\nthese hypocrites would go crazy if someone did this protest in their country as if someone grabbed their pussies hard, but in their mind it's ok to do it in another country ? \n\nno one is forcing them to stay, no one is making them drink wine by force or smoke a J\n\nI'm beginning to think these pricks are doing this not for a false hope of Jihad or religion, but just to make life hard for us normal people who go to London to enjoy it, just to make our lives miserable as theirs  

YOUR SAYING THAT WE MARRY CHILDREN! ITS PEOPLE LIKE YOU WHO CONTINUE THE STEREOTYPE OF THE ''BAD MUSLIMS''. YOUR ABSOLUTELY RASIST AND ADVOCATING LIES ABOUT MUSLIMS. YOU ARE ACCUSING US OF DOING THINGS THAT ARE PERVERTED, RIGHTFULLY YOU HAVE ERNED THIS ATTRIBUTE BASED ON YOU IMORAL UNFOUNDED ACCUSATION. ISLAM IS *PERFECTION*, PEOPLE ARE NOT PERFECT, BUT THE RELIGION IS. I HOPE THAT AFTER ALL OF THIS SEGREGATION, ALIENATION AND INJUSTICE AGAINST OUR FAITH THAT EVERY ONE LIKE YOU PAYS. resist !!!

the media works so hard to make people afraid of Muslims and make them submissive to sharia law. It is all a part of the planned destruction of our culture by the 'criminally cowardice' leaders who see all hope only in cultures where violence and sexual perversity are the mainstay. Yes I am talking abut Muslim communities where sexual perversity and social and political corruption are not only allowed but also admired.
