Let’s see… they don’t bother to assimilate, they scam the legal system for their own benefit, they’re rude, stubborn, have zero hygiene standards, bring the same 3rd world levels of cleanliness that they left, have zero regard for the very nations that they’re feeding off of… should I keep going?

As an Indian I can tell you for sure that Punjab India is corrupt. They make fake asylums and get fake documents from Punjab. They also make fake Khalistani claims. In fact Canada should be aware that these guys might ask for there own country if they keep growing in BC area. I have to face racism and discrimination now despite being here for 40 years. Bring people who are loyal to Canada and will abide by its rules and contribute to the country. Yes I faced lot of hard ship here but I am thankful for what I have. I like to keep Canada diverse and glowing in success. Politicians have failed us. They have created same kind of problems in Europe. Not sure why we can get more strong minded politicians who have love for the country to make it great and keep it great. Jagmeet singh has a big hand in this liklely.

Thank you for breaking this down, I would have never guessed that so many international students were allowed to bring their spouse as a temporary worker, just crazy ?

Why are international students still coming to Canada when they can take the studies ONLINE and then apply properly to our country for citizenship? That’s a wise move! Then we have educated people who are proving themselves that they want to simulate Canadian people! You don’t bring your culture and force it down our throats! You BECOME Canadian!

Don't conflate hating Indians and an obviously unsustainable immigration rate. I'm a natural born Canadian, I'm pro-immigration. So long as it is managed and targeted at areas of need for the country. I never painted all Indians with the same brush when the food bank and Wasaga incidents happened. When you bring in 1.2M a year, you will get some bad actors. However, that's the issue, that many people, coming over in such a short period of time, the infrastructure and social safety net cannot support everyone. It's unfortunate, but necessary that immigration rate is reduced and reformed.

I recently worked in a fast food restaurant owned by a foreign national, to begin with there was about a half and half mix between the foreign students and Canadians, it was well run, nice place to work and we pretty much got along, suddenly the owner started advertising for help only in his own language newspaper, as the usual turnover took place all the new hires were of his nationality, students who were limited to 20 hours per week wound up working more hours than the full time workers which in my books left me wondering how much studying they were getting in, Covid hit, I asked the boss if he was going to sign up for getting us paid instead of laying us off, he said he wasn't eligible for that program and laid us off, after he laid us off he applied for and got on the program, suddenly names the Canadian supervisor had never seen working for us appeared on the payroll and mysteriously when we got back to normal and got called back they never did appear in our restaurant. I'm not a racist, have always loved working with other nationalities, but rules are there for a reason and need to be enforced, a lot of folks are taking advantage of our lax enforcement. If you want to work in Canada you should apply for the permit before you come, if you come as a student you need to be a student, if you come as a refugee you should declare that status before you get on a plane. When we have people living on the streets and in cars because housing is not affordable we need to question how many folks we are bringing in.

Agent bring good money student business more indian no score per student they cash job cheap

election is coming up in canada. canadians do not approve of bringing people n when we have no where to house them and cannot afford to support them when we cannot support canadians. it is unfair to everyone. and we have a legal immigration system so apply dont come sliding in the back door.

I don't hate Indians as a Canadian I hate that you guys do not want to assimilate to my country did you want to bring India to Canada no thank you go back to India if you don't want to be a part of Canada the way you're taking our jobs from regular Canadians I can't stand for that

Canada immigration system is not diverse. They only bring in Indians and allow them to dominate their cities. Can you find Indian students protesting in the UK or the US? Indians have already dominated, and they only employ themselves and don't care about other.

There not coming here for education, its a joke , reality check....800 million Indians only make $2 a day in India, there here to stay and then they bring there wife's, parents ,children, etc under compassionate grounds. They dont contribute anything to Canadian society or culture, its the number one issue that is fucking our economy. We dont need another million uber drivers and Tim Horton employees.

Unaccountability for politicians has made them take people for a ride all over the world. \nCanadian people should know that whereas focusing on electing in a particular party then what we bring into the office is a particular character of a person. So it is better to scrutinize someone individually before bringing them in not by political party bias but rather their capability.

deport them and their kids/parents. when one is working in foreign country, one should not bring dependents===spouses/kids/parents.

By my calculation 411 thousand students would generate at least 12.3 billion in tuition at the very least. Can't rush too many in at once. The pipes will burst. The students that bring their relatives and smuggled cash in is a serious problem.

Are these applicants (legitimate) immigrants carrying proper identification and documentation to prove their eligibility - did they pre apply - before showing up ? - OR - are they economic migrants with no documentation no credentials - no finances - bringing their problems with them ! /\nSorry - charity starts at home…

dude, I think you are too busy smelling your own f@rts. I know so many people even before 2018 who were citizens of Canada and they could not find anything that pays more than 45K a year. Do you have any idea how expensive rent is in GTA? Are you telling me that those temporary workers took all those 50K jobs? LOL. The real problem is, Canadian corporations and government is sooooooooooooooo corrupt that they bring people from India on visitor visas and ask them to perform tasks that should be performed by highly skilled workers such as in high tech sector. No wonder our data is stolen so comfortably all the damn time. Besides that, corruption is so high that they deliberately kill any new ideas because that will inflate the salaries. So, those old fat rich SOBs will NEVER let young immigrants introduce new ideas, setup new startups and get frustrated and move to the US. I know so many people got frustrated and moved to the US because of MUCH better salaries. This place is sh!t and will always be sh!t because only sh!theads can live here. Canada's A team runs away from here.

Just out of curiosity who issued those visas in first place? Was it taliban who owned and operated fake collages! \nThat might be taliban who took gic money's out of talibs( means students In taliban or whatever). \nOhh by the way these talibs bring on close to 27 billion per year ! As some say . \nYeah that's 27 billion dollar industry.

The problem is. Indians cannot assimilate. They cannot adapt, they have no respect for rules, they have no common decency. They simply cannot adapt. Wherever they go, they bring their 3rd world BS with them.

The liberals intend to bring in 500,000 this year, next year.\nThis is wrong.

intl students bring their spouse and even do business of spouse to make money. they bring parents and siblings and grand parents. plus parents and siblings of spouse and grand parents. They all come and stay. one students is followed by at least 12 to 15 more in one year.

Why do you say it is a red flag when international students can bring their spouses? This has always been the case and is the same in many other countries. Have you researched immigration and student visa rules and regulations before discussing this topic?

Before 2019 it was hard to find a job and now after this massive number of students bringing from India . And now no jobs and mostly these employers don’t want to hire Canadian citizens because they are hiring these students on low wages and use them like a Slave . Canada is destroyed by these students

Many students come her tham bring parents and make canada there home.

If Canada allows unrestricted immigration from India, Canada could end up resembling a new India with 40 million Indians—what I’d call immigration overload. Indians should focus on staying in their own country and building it up, period. If they aspire to be a world power, they need to strengthen their nation from within rather than spreading out and often bringing the challenges of India with them. India is a beautiful, exotic, and diverse country. It’s time they took control and worked towards becoming the next China, but that goal seems far off at this pace.

Bring a tent

I'd likely have had no concerns, if assimilation was a keystone of bringing people here. Instead we have foreigners being used as political/corporate pawns, without care for the fallout.

The recent wave of Indians coming to Canada are NOTHING like the previous ones. They have caused this themselves. I always wanted to visit India but based on the behaviour I have seen by indian newcomers has made me change my mind. Even driving is worse here with all of the aggressive drivers bringing up insurance rates.

Finally, we need to address our homeless and poverty here, not keep bringing in foreigners. Quality of life has tanked

They add no value to the country and economies. They dont spend money, no loyalty to where they live, they dont spend money, only hire cheap cheap cheap labour to do thing, bringing down the labour, economy, and skill. Ever wondered why they have so many poor people in India? Because even the rich dont want to pay fair wages. Keeping the labour poor

Canadian born population is busy in drugs , doing labour job. Parents never saved for their kids education so they are working in Stores earning minimum wages. As cities get costly, they go far and far to earn livelihood, selling their homes to immigrants who bring and earn good money and then complain that cities are filled with immigrants. And then they blame , that immigrants took our jobs.

Immigration is to bring people that can improve the country, not bring people to add to the food back. If you are not self sustainable and able to become a productive memeber of society, you dont have a right to come to canada.

In Gujarat and punjab, forging documents and illegally obtained IELTS is a flourishing business which brings so many stupid, illiterate, self-destructive and impolite monkeys into Canada. Sadly, Canadians stereotype every Indians seeing these ducks and their impoverished behavior.

Bring back our jobs this is brutal no work for canadians

This is the creation of Mr Wacko and his thieving party. Bring foreigners in, take their money, and now no one is happy. Not foreigners, not Canadians. Meanwhile, wacko lives on in his fantasy land that he has created called khanada.

Because you don't reproduce, how are you gonna replace the work force with a declining fertility rate, you need migration you just need to bring in people who respect the rules of the country, do a more functional filtration system

Why not just exclusively adopt the skill qualification as the criteria for granting PR status like 20-30 years ago. Isnt that the minimum every 1st world countries should require?They can bring their immediate spouses and children BUT do away with allowing old parents or Grandparents. It doesnt make sense to bring someone too old to contribute to the economy. Even if they do menial jobs, it wouldnt make an impact as they havent contributed enough to the system.\nAnd for heavens sake STOP the temporary foreign workers program. The jobs they are getting arent even under “skilled” category. That should be left for young Canadians or PR Canadians who needs entry level work.

this a distraction by woke trudeau wef liberals as they continue to bring in other immigrants en masse

What about Higher Wage LMIAs? Are they still being issued? Companies like IBM, CGI, PwC, Dell, Deloitte, Accenture, TCS, and others are bringing people in on Higher Wage LMIAs, taking Canadian jobs in the IT sector. Who will address this? Stopping Low Wage LMIAs is good, but they should also stop granting High Wage LMIAs so that Canadians can work in higher-wage positions, especially with growing inflation. Technically, it seems like you're saying Canadians should work for lower wages while people from other countries get higher wages. Is that fair?

Indians are coming here strictly to take advantage of us and what we built here. An Indian man I worked with last year told me to my face he was just here to sleep in his car, work 3 jobs and buy a home to rent at market rent and go back home. Just get to that PR status. Then he wants to bring in numerous family members to do the same thing. WE ARE NOT HERE FOR THE TAKING

Will Canada and Australia still consider bringing in Palestinians into their countries. I think that's why these two Prime Ministers are trying to remove Indians.

Oops. Indians have a strong ethic identity. Indians will create little Indian everywhere in any place as long as they settle regardless , bringing and promoting Indian culture and practices.\nThe problem is India cannot no longer hold Indians.\nThey need to conquer other lands by immigration.\nIf Indians from all over the world were to be deported to India. India will be in a crisis.

All indian students are getting married and bringing their spouse and parents to Canada. How it's possible? Also getting pregnant so when the baby is born they can be a Canadian citizen. When they come as a student How come they get the security job in Canada? When they come as a student they have to study and go back to their country. Because they say when they apply for student visa they show that they have money. So use the money and study & go back. Canadian immigration have to stop giving them the work permit. So the Canadian's can get the work.

No more students from Asian they’re trouble maker coming here for work not studying, bring from Europe and South America their mentality fer better than Asia and they don’t do grouping religion divisions fevaretision etc.

I’m sorry, but you can’t call everything racist or “anti-indian” because it doesn’t suit your agenda. We are bringing in more people than our economy can handle. Putting a cap on it is OUR government finally, albeit too little too late, listening to US CANADIAN citizens.

Keep the student cap. Provinces need to remove the tuition cap that has been on for years. Domestic students need to pay the real cost of the education instead of letting the school bring in foreign students as cash cows.

Go home no land house or jobs for you just low wage jobs bring the brains to Canada not uber tim hortons mc donalds let the seniors have thos jobs

Bringing immigrants makes life difficult for Canadians, including those immigrants. No upside for anyone...

Made things difficult for Intl students and now they started going elsewhere. Surprised Pikachu face! They're still not handling this properly. It's not the cap, they need to raise the bar for the skills they bring. That's how you weed out the trash.

Very fair assessment \nOne thing to add is assimilation. Canada is known for its multiculturalism. However, I think it becomes problematic when sectors of society do not communicate in English and tend to commerce only amongst their own communities. It doesn't feel like a united country, just fragments of different groups. \nAs well, many groups bringing the politics of their country here, this not just targeting Indians but it is an issue, and I think it's causing a lot of issues in Canada.\nThank you for your fair assessment.
