India has 1.4+ billion people — more than all of Europe combined. Migration pressure is global. Blaming Indians is lazy. Blame a stupid government, led by Justin Trudeau, that ignored planning, housing, and wages — and learned nothing from Europe’s mistakes.

As an Indian individual born in Canada, I don’t think it is right to generalize all Indians for creating such a huge problem in Brampton. From this video, you can obviously see the differences between the Indians that want to be here and want to make a life here and the ones that are running time on their tourist visas. But do not blame the entire Indian population, its inaccurate.

Dont blame the punjabi and Sikh community. Alot of heart warming people. When you have a corruption of Canada government Carney and his liberals. This what happens when government has no accountability. Canada wasn't like this before. Want change clean up this liberal government. Its liberal supporters that allow this.

Canadian should blame England for this they taught Indian English

The fact everyone blames Pakistan immigrants but in reality its Indians that immigrate that r dirty

Indians are not dirty, and we don't eat poop, that guy who said all these horrible, nasty things shoes how much he hates Indians, it's true that this place has a huge indian community, but as long as they're harmless, they don't don't violate laws they must stay, look indian people contribute towards the economic growth of any country they reside in, ofcourse some indians lack civic sense, but that doesn't mean everyone is like that ??!! In America, Drugs has taken over, almost 30% people are homeless, burglary, theft is common, Cops will do nothing, Psychopaths are on the rise, Murder, break ins, killing by guns, accidents, are rising, Trump is weaponising ICE and killing USA citizens, putting kids in jail for no reason, complete chaos, no jobs are there, no buses, trains for easy commute, Relationships are broken, nobody is happy in all the western countries, divorce, cheating, and mind you, most indians are contributing towards the economic growth of USA, all the software engineers from India, now you're Deporting them as if your citizens are all geniuses, Indian community is not at all a problem, your mindset towards us, is the problem, this is racism, this is discrimination, America is supposed to be the origin and flag-bearer Of democracy, do something about that, other than Focusing on people who are residing peacefully with you guys, yes you have the law and order, enforce them on everyone, but don't blame them just because they're different, different in colour, religion, accent etc.

I was born there, my family quickly became unwelcome in a brown neighborhood. We moved away because of that. We refer to it as "Bramladesh" now.. The thing is, I don't blame these people for wanting to seek a better life. I do however blame them for turning the city into a flaming trashcan. We have enough skipthedishes and uber drivers.. we don't need another 500,000 of them.

There's nothing wrong about going abroad in search of greener pastures (most do that, no?) but I don't get the idea of bringing the culture that screws up the home country to the new place --> and turn it into the place they're escaping from. Let's face it: politics is one of the problems, but you can't blame that fully for lack of civic sense?

A Indian hit my parked car and the government blamed me and protected him f canada it is india now

Trailer trash white people can't find a job now they are blaming Africans for their failures . Make it make sense. Sounds like a loser to me.

For someone who presents himself as a “journalist,” this is a deeply dishonest piece of work. The framing is not subtle: loaded titles, racial counting, selective locations, and deliberately uneven questioning all push the same conclusion. Immigrants are interrogated about their presence and legality, while others are invited to pass judgment on them. When racial stereotypes are voiced, you don’t challenge them — you laugh. That’s not an accident, and it’s not neutral. You clearly understand that housing shortages, sanitation issues, and infrastructure strain are the result of policy failures and poor planning. Yet you repeatedly avoid those causes because blaming systems doesn’t generate clicks the way racial implication does. Reducing complex, structural problems to identity isn’t investigative — it’s lazy, cynical, and intellectually shallow. When a city worker gives a grounded response that doesn’t fit the narrative you’re pushing, it’s brushed aside. When visuals can be used to imply blame, they’re highlighted. That pattern makes the “just asking questions” defense ring hollow. This isn’t exposing truth — it’s manufacturing outrage and calling it journalism. With your reach, that’s not just irresponsible, it’s embarrassing. You're not a journalist but just a racist. That's all

You need to question Canadian govt. Faking docs and coming to Canada is so easy. And why Canada allows too much students? What about fake colleges opened and supported by Canadian govt. Blaming Indian is easy because if you blame Canadain govt, you will be treated like Truckers..

Well the Canadians gave them visa let them in. Blame them. Plus the took people from the worst part of India; North India. If the Canadian government wanted they could solve this shit in 1 year and have all the punjabis deported to india. Simple.

I like how every west country is blaming south asians when the are not even 10% of there population 😂 .

Punjabi people being suppressed in India? 😂 These khalstanis never fail to make me laugh. 😂 First of all India has federal government. There's a central government & state government. Central government allocates budget to State government which politicians from punjab itself(means people from their own community or region) have to use the upliftment of their people. But yet they blame Indian Prime Minister Modi for their problems even though his party is not even in power in punjab. Infact khalstan is the major reason behind downfall of punjab region since they run d. racket in punjab as well as they also help punjabi youth enter countries like canada illegally. Because of that either punjabi youth geta into d adction or they just leave India & the state is just left with old people.

In the United States, Canada, Australia, and Europe, ethnic populations are being replaced. Within the next two decades, people with roots in these regions will become a minority. The worst part is that you will be walking on eggshells due to cultural differences. All of this can be blamed on liberal politicians who allowed such population replacement. This is a real-world version of the Hunger Games. Good luck, everyone—as Effie from the Hunger Games always says: “May the odds be ever in your favor!

The contrast between immigrants, many from India, and the rhetoric of those who now feel like a new minority was striking. It should not surprise me that racism appears anywhere humans are, but what stood out was how some speakers treated all Indians as a single people, despite hundreds of cultures, and accused them of failing to assimilate to ‘their way.’ Many of those voices were themselves descendants of immigrants who were once pressured to abandon Norwegian or other identities in the name of assimilation. Yet there was little evidence they had actually spent time getting to know their Indian neighbors, their cultures, friendships, or daily realities. Instead, the focus was fear and a narrative of societal collapse, rather than honest engagement that separates real local issues from blanket blame. Of course, any local community can have problems, and some groups can be unwelcoming. But the argument presented implied there is only one way to be Canadian. That echoes xenophobic rhetoric in the US about who counts as ‘American,’ often while ignoring the reality of Indigenous peoples entirely. I do not deny the importance of shared commitments like the rule of law, freedom, and evidence based policy rooted in the Enlightenment and scientific thinking. But culture and learning can coexist with those values. What troubled me most was how poverty and discrimination were replaced with racial generalizations, and how victim language was used to deflect responsibility, something that resembles DARVO. Given the same conditions, these problems could arise in any group, regardless of race.

Then, if people are driving like shit, you can’t blame people you have to blame the government for giving them license. How are they getting their license to be driving then to begin with? How are they passing the driving test to be able to drive? I think the government is benefiting from all this insurance job that’s why they’re giving people license left or right

blaming the people for the failure of your government is diabolical

You can’t blame Indians if u look at it It’s full of punjabis

Hindus and Sikhs indulged in violence against each other and saw communal riots in Canada in 2023. Indian govt infact has started assassinating naturalised Canadian citizens from India, who are deemed to be "threat" (tick off the hindu nationalidt govt in power). I know some folks, including my neighbour, who immigrated to Canada right after high School — they take services of immigration agents who have contacts with diploma mills there, get a student visa citing enrollment in a sham educational degree, join a minimum wage job and rig the whole process to attain PR & then citizenship — essentially giving low skilled, poorly assimilated labour the citizenship in Canada under guise of skilled or educated immigration. Even as an Indian, the whole situation is insane and astounding to say the least. Hindu Nationalism has spread its roots & conducts marches in Canada within the Indian Hindu areas like they do here in India and people have started performing river aartis as well (communal prayers to worship rivers) — all kinds of pernicious identitarianism is festering there. A ton of Indian immigrants now see Canada merely as a source to better life & resources, but relate to, & are patriotic towards India or assert their rawer religious Sikh or Hindu identity due to lack of any assimilatory pressure & absence of a well defined Canadian identity. Funniest part is Indians, esp Hindus, who vote for hindu nationalists ushering majoritarian policies in India, cheer for persecution of minorities and justify caste system, suddenly co-opt liberalism & decietfully use its talking points to defend their position as a minority in places they migrate to (they do not believe in so, and don't apply the same standards to themselves). If you wish to blame someone, blame the govt of Canada and its elites. At the end of the day, they wanted cheap manual labour, and opened the gates without much consideration.

THe biggest problem is young white people cant get jobs and we are being blamed for it. In quebec its the same but with africans.

First give them hopes to come to foreign place and work on low income... Then once you take make of them local start to call it invasion but their government is the one should be blamed...

I was born in brampton, lived in cbridge then to b.c.! I will never go back! Heres a fun fact tho, the government opened the flood gate to immigration, red taped housing, started a catch and release program for repeat offenders, even violent ones! And made drugs decriminalised! From what I heard, there was commercials and panphlets all over differnt countries saying come to canada for a better life, its great here! Many came and because of the housing shortage due to the red tape, people were sleeping on the street in front of the government offices! Its also colder then many people that have never experienced could even imagine! Then there starting from the bottom! A chip on there shoulder thinking the gov owes them and do whatever you can to get payed! Hence why there were so many car, jewlery store, liqure store thiefts and break & enters! The cops were literally telling people to keep there car keys near the door so the thiefs can take them with no altercation! I blame turdo and sean fraser! Fun fact, sean fraser was the immagration minister then got cabnet shuffled to housing minister during turdos terms, idk what he is now but i think hes still in cabnet. I try not to be racist but this failed experiment and just plain bad math/out of touch with reality cabinet ministers are litterally making people racist! Its too many, too fast, when there manipulating the housing market by red taping it so much nobody can get a shovel in the ground! The stupidity of the gov is insane! I dont like the convervatives either as they will just swing the pendulem so far the other way too fast, i.e. cut everything! Including when they were hurting single mothers on welfare and persons with disibilities, we need somthing new, maybe a.i. or the upcomming future party, idk but this crap is wak!

Why are you people blaming the whole community .A lot of indians came there legally , and worked hard to have a good life there . They pay taxes and don't do anything illegal. Doesn't mean every indians are like that ,a lot of them came illegally. deport such people instead of generalizing an entire community. After all this, canandians elected the same government into power that made this mess in the first place just because they hate trump

Bro I'm Punjabi and I'm born in Brampton. Many people in my generation are integrated and we do more "Canadian" things that "Punjabi" things. People scapegoat Brampton and immigrants for the government failing to build and honour housing or infrastructure for the last 30 years. Of course there needs to be reforms on immigration but for the everyday person It’s way easier to blame a random brown guy for high rent than to admit the system is, and has been, broken by design. People have been moving, trading, and mixing for thousands of years.

7:03 - you’re standing in the middle of the road and impeding traffic. So much for blaming certain ethnic groups.!!!

15:50 Bro if he gets through the border ima be so mad. The ONE thing, the ONE promise Trump has delivered on, at least so he says. Haha I will edit this comment at the end of my watch EDIT: HE ROACHED OUT 🤣🤣 Ehhh tbh I dont blame him

as an Canadian this is an insult for the Citizen of this country to allow such radical change into a small farm town like it use to be now its overrule by Immigrant that are nasty and are just hurting our economic well the media blame trumps like moron we are 💀🤡🤣

This man is spewing absolute nonsense. “Rape is not against their culture” whose culture? Africa is a continent with 54 countries and well over 3,000 ethnic groups and tribes. Most, if not all, African nations have legal penalties for rape. Africans are “stupid” and “can’t keep a job at McDonald’s”? But somehow Nigerians are some of the smartest, most accomplished people I’ve met in my life. The ones I know are doctors, lawyers, engineers, work in tech, living in mansions and driving cars this miserable white trash of a man would only dream of. The irony of someone with such a limited worldview calling other people “low IQ” is wild. Education isn’t just about what you think you know, it’s knowing when you’re completely out of your depth. Instead of blaming entire populations for why you think they’re beneath you, maybe ask yourself why tearing others down is the only way you know how to feel superior.

You can’t blame Indian leaving India when you have tea maker as prime minister

Here is a aggressively neutral take as a Canadian elementary school teacher in an area with an extremely high Indian population (around half our school is ethnically Indian). It is also my own opinion, and some opinions on the internet suck: The good: Cultural integration IS possible (the Indian families are more into hockey than the white families where I live), tons of cross-cultural friendships, beautiful blend of cultural celebrations, top achievers are almost always second-generation immigrants, kids are growing up to love their parents' culture while also loving Canada's, many fantastic families who engage their children well and raise them very respectfully, religious temples that will feed an amazing meal to ANYBODY who walks into them (as long as you cover your hair), low rates of family trauma (drugs, abuse, divorce, etc.), families that take care of their elders The rough: Not all families are interested in being Canadian (some families just send their kids to Indian speaking private schools, live in Indian areas, and only seem to practice Indian ways of life - what's even the point?), many Indian families retreated into their home-lives during Covid which removed their children from integration opportunities, a very small percentage of the families are absolutely TERRIBLE at parenting and treat their sons and daughters with different levels of respect, multi-family households pay a single property tax which makes the contribution per taxpayer much smaller (while social benefits are equal to anybody else), some crime such as extortion and gang activity has been imported into the country, some individuals' disregard for rules and laws (setting fireworks on Diwali in the middle of a dry, grassy field is just plain stupid), some Indian communities seem to vote blindly for their own ilk during local elections without any regard for policy or experience, LMIA immigration program has been corrupted by the nepotism of bad actors and the greed of large corporations (wages can be federally subsidized which makes it cheaper to hire immigrants than the 16 year old down the street). Many of these families were simply making good choices for their own family, so don't blame the people themselves for this - blame the government that allowed it to fester unsustainably. I'll continue to stick up for the majority of these beautiful families though - haters be darned! Watching these kids grow up gives me some hope for humanity!

What invasion? We all came here legally with passports and valid visas. WE work jobs, help our community, isnt that canadian enough? The temples and gurudwaras of Brapmton literally offer free food and drinks to anyone and everyone, regardless of their race, sexuality, gender. We're not like the mexicans of the usa where we come here illegally.WE COME HERELEGALLY, do legal jobs, and live peacefully. Do we have our fair share of problems? Yeah, sure. But that really doesnt overcome all the good that we do not only brampton but canada as a whole. If you wanna blame anyone, blame your government for letting in so many people, not us, we are simply ppl who are seeking a better life. Im a 18 year indian canadian teenager and im sorrounded by other indian canadian teenagers as well and we're all here to do good to the country and city, we're planning on becoming lawyers engineers, doctors, etc, yet yall think that we're here to destroy the country that we ourselves keep close to our heart. this video is racist, and nothing else.

The two speed diabetes bike fuck is the definition of blaming others for your failures

It’s good to hear some are thinking of leaving to the US. I truly wish for their success. I worked at a college that became a diploma mill in Vancouver and you couldn’t go to the men’s room without seeing 3 or 4 dudes hanging out. Foreign students also take from the food banks enough to have 1st year students now banned and many people no longer donate. I generally have great experiences Indian people, and have travelled India extensively, but if you let in too many of one type the native population will have a hard time and the immigrants themselves won’t integrate and build their own society. Blame the Liberal government.

Liberals are to blame for all of this, it's becoming out of control

From someone that lives in Brampton. The people that drive here are terrible. And when it’s there fault they blame you for there poor driving skills. Terrible. No wonder our insurance is sky high.

Wow, what a piece of trash video this is full of misleading information that it should be banned from YouTube. Canada is full of various ethnoburbs for decades and it has generally worked for the benefit of the country. Go to Markham or Richmond and it's 80%+ chinese. Vaughan is mostly Italians. So many areas of the country has had immigrant populations like Brampton does. Then you give an outright racist a platform of about 4 minutes in this video to say such BS that Indians eat poop, and Africans have sub 80 IQ. It's infuriating to see this content.....and from an American no less. You then highlight a survey about quality life and make an implication that it has anything to do with immigration. Guess what, you ask that quality of life to any city in North America and they will almost guarantee that quality of life has decreased since the pandemic mostly because of inflation and the economy...not because of some immigrants coming here to take low paying jobs that white don't want to do. It's the same BS that Americans do with blaming Mexicans and Somalians. Only dumb people actually buy into this xenophobic crap that media producers like you promote.

Don’t blame the Indians, blame your own government!

"People don't understand that many Arab or Pakistani people look Indian. They do these things, but all the blame comes to India."

5:31 this guy is the type of person who is a loser and only blames others, typical discord mod build racist too. 😂

_The only one to blame for this MAYHEM is Trudeau. Montreal has become a Slum dogs_

More like former invaders interviewing new invaders.😂😂😂. Dude your ancestors history is not that different. Only difference is your ancestors had guns and they come here illegally . Don't blame the player blame the game.

Liberal government to blame

I grew up in Edmonton in a very Indian part of town. It's not "Indian people " not at All!! Maybe mass migration is an issue, but it's not Indians. Maybe immigration scams but trust me, every Indian I lived with was civically minded. Blame the scams ...not the people! That's the federal governments fault!! Indian people have lived here for decades and in the UK. Unfortunately the scams have hurt the community!! (Even listen to the people in the interviews. Some of the best people I've met, and they ARE part of my community. I do worry about the scams but that's it)

Soon Danielle will find something else to blame for her failure as premier in Alberta.

We are suffering greatly but if we all collectively blame it on Trump we can feel better while it gets worse. Elbows up everybody

You can't blame India or Indians. Blame the liberals.

Hidden agenda is one n only one thing n that is to somehow put yr foot into Canada n get PR by hook or by crook. I can understand those coming in Canada want to stay but the Liberals n the immigration who we trust to be loyal r to be blamed.

Blame your government
