The fact that you are highly educated and earn less than when you worked for Singapore Airlines tells you that this country, ' where i was born ' is descending into a socialist hell, all by design and still people have illusions this will get better however bankruptcies are rising and the middle class is struggling. Maybe the immigration officers should be up front with potential immigrants and show them the real facts about what this country has to offer.

Chinese are a joke well handled by real big ass security like a toddler in a kindergarten

I want to bring attention to the fact that when an Airline submits a Record of Employment (ROE) to Service Canada for flight crew. The hours the company puts for insurable hours is the hours per month based on the pay hours not the actual amount of hours worked. Pilots for example are usually paid based on 80 hours of flying per month, actual time in the air. However, we all know it takes a lot more work to get an airplane ready to fly. These are the Duty Hours, the actual hours worked. The Airlines do not use the Duty Hours for the Records of Employment. The rules regarding insurable hours does state that it is the actual real world hours worked or as close as possible to that number. Something needs to be done because it is not fare for a full time employee to then be given an ROE with just 80 hours of insurable hours per month when they actually could work way more than that. Please someone investigate and report on this.

He lost that spring in his step when he looked back and realized his ass was all alone on that world stage… so much power yet so little real confidence and character ???

In Canada, there is not enough housing and jobs are scarce, especially for anyone at the entry level or basic wage. We've been absolutely swamped. This is not the fault of the immigrants or the students, it's the fault of our extremely stupid and short sighted government. Most of those immigrants I encounter are good people, polite and considerate. But some, well I understand where the complaints about rude and inconsiderate behaviour come from, because it only takes a few bad experiences to get people angry. I've experienced it myself, but most of it (from my experience) seems to be from students who are very loud and impolite on public transit. The housing situation here is INSANE, prices are sky high and very little to choose from. A lot of seniors now can only afford to rent a room (after having worked all their lives and very little to show for it), and prices are up about 50% from only 5 years ago. The government says inflation is a fraction of what it is in real life, and living expenses have exploded. As I understand it, some people made a lot of money offering services to bring students and low wage workers in, with no consideration to the damage they were doing to all of us who were born and raised here - they wanted to make their million dollars. Another problem is that once someone arrives here, what they find is NOT what they were led to believe. What students and immigrants are told they need to live here is an absolute lie, living here in Canada has become very expensive. Many workers are severely under paid, and never even see the legal minimum wage, and the problem with that is, almost no Canadian will be hired on to those jobs - the reasons are that imported foreign workers will work below minimum wage because they are trapped here, and the Canadians already know that they will only struggle if they take jobs that pay so poorly. So yes, a lot of Canadians are VERY angry, and you really can't blame them. Once again, the Canadian government is responsible for much of this, and crooked employers who are willing to take advantage of low wage labour. It's an absolute mess.

USA ACTTING REAL SOFT,BUT WILL GO OUT OF THE COUNTRY AND HELP OTHERS WITH STRONG FORCE AND PROTECT THEM.COME ON NOW

Clear and real intention of palestinian

Some Punjabis are real clowns, last day I had to apologize to a white who got insulted by a Punjabi guy. I went to him and said sorry for that clowns act. These people just make a bad name for hardworking Indians in canada. Such a shame guys. ,- ❤ from Kerala….

I am so sorry, as a native Canadian, that Indians are feeling attacked. It is difficult, no matter your ethnic background, if you are not Indian to even acknowledge these issues because people are afraid of being labelled as racist so I thank you for bringing this topic up. Please understand this is the result of runaway immigrations with no real screening. The government quadrupled immigration, hundreds of percents increase in students, asylum seekers, and illegal entries, even though there was already a housing crisis, and a completely predictable doctor shortage due to aging out. Covid was just starting to get under control but many still needed treatment and BOOM, the population went from 30 million in 2014 to over 40 million in a decade, most of it in the last 3 years. We native Canadians are scratching our heads, we don't understand what the Liberals are trying to accomplish but to create suspicion and racism between groups of people -- divide and conquer? Maybe...but ultimately it is a complete lack of planning! Still 99 percent of Canadian born do not blame Iindividual ndians for this. I've lived and worked with Indians my entire life of over 60 years. There are now Indian gangs, particularly Punjabi gangs because of lack of oversight, and while they are small they are constantly committing crimes, selling drugs, shooting people all in the last few years. I hear gun shots nightly in my ethnically mixed neighbourhood, and we are all afraid to walk at night. Unfortunately the people arrested are mostly from continental India. Some have a political agenda that has to do more with India than Canada, so they recruit young Indo-Canadian children from good families and tell them they are being oppressed, and next thing these kids are acting as drug mules and enforcers, being told that they are fighting systemic racism. As for dancing and music, I love the cultural events, we are happy to see and even take part in Indian cultural events. IWhen I do hear people blaming India and Indians it breaks my heart too! Hopefully together we can fix this. Our governments are at odds, and I hate this -- they need to respectfully talk and work this out. You are good neighbours, good people, you are welcome here and have helped build Canada in so many positive ways. ?

In another words he said no refugees in his country no one wants the Palestinians why how come no Arab countries are willing to help these people what’s the real reason behind this

He’s smart, the kingdom of Jordan was very pro Palestinian and accepted a ton of refugees from Palestine after his real warfare independence, but in 1951 a Palestinian assassinated king Abdullah the 1st\n\n\nEgypt doesn’t want anything to do with the Palestinians because the Palestinians are the ones who started the Muslim brotherhood which the Egyptians view as a terrorist organization\n\nThe Palestinians don’t have a good reputation in the region

It's because Trudeau bowed to China. Chinese and Hong Kong people all fled the regime and send their money abroad to buy up most of their real estate with cash driving up the market. Trudeau's adminstration welcomed the immigration but didn't forsee the inflation caused by real estate.

Blame your government not the immigrant population. Stop spreading hate messages, your racist comments are so biased that it’s actually funny. Get your head out of your butt and do some real research. Sorry you might not have the time to do so, as you might have to line up for the weed store or get dole money!

Bro played the real uno reverse card

It's interesting to see what will happen if I post a neutral comment here. \n\n\nUndoubtedly, Germany is not a paradise on Earth, just like any other place. There are both pros and cons. Sometimes I felt like I was reading comments about a completely different country when people wrote about not being accepted by society and so on, so I decided to respond too.\n\n\nI barely speak German (my second language is English) and I have never felt any racism or disrespect towards me. Whether it was on the street or at work. I more often met friendly people who were interested in learning about my move to Germany and were always admiring and saying words of support. This cannot be faked, these things were real. \n\n\nOf course, you will experience a lot of stress when visiting the foreigners' department, as many things are unfamiliar to you and you don't have enough language skills at first.\n\n\nOf course, I would like to get paid more for my work, or at least pay less taxes. Yes, child money support exists, but it's more of a formality as it barely covers the costs of raising children. This is where I would really like to see improvements.\n\n\n\nPeople, including immigrants, cannot understand that by increasing the demand for housing, they are increasing its cost. You can't blame the country itself for this. The law of supply and demand works here.\n\n\nThose who write about their plans to move to Australia or the USA, don't forget to share your relocation experience after. When you face the same or even bigger relocation problems. \n\n\nYou are right in one thing - there is no paradise on Earth, and you have to work. Hard and always ti achieve your goals.\n\n\nThere is such a thing as a labor market and everything coexists in balance. \n\n The only thing whether it's too hard for you or you will not give up ?.

This is real for me because I life in canada

We're in real trouble from not only the problem but the people that are condoning this.

The real reason the homelessness is gotten to be so badin Canada is because marijuana has become legal. I live in a state below that has legalized it as well, and I can see the same dynamic here. I grow it, but what we never took into account were what the social implications would be like after legalization.

They don't need security or criminal record checks are exempt from foreign real-estate buyers ban. What moredo they need? Claiming assylum gives them free education rent and food for over 2 or more years if there counties were that bad they would have been able to come even as students.

Stupid clic bate. Despite the moron Prime Minister, Canada is the best. I am a real Canadian and this video is stupid.

This customer was lucky delivery guy controlled himself ! Him and his camera would not see the light of day if he met his real match for delivery . Would’ve been delivered straight to hell one way ticket

Research from the University of Alberta, along with various other studies, suggests that immigration generally has no significant impact on housing prices. However, the high cost of labor and construction has discouraged many companies from building new homes. Additionally, rapid housing development could potentially affect millions of Canadian homeowners, as many have made real estate their primary investment. Despite these concerns, I believe increasing housing construction is necessary to alleviate the housing crisis and reduce the pressure it places on so many people in Canada.

? shut her ignorant Zionist agenda down real quick

Real answer = I left my ninja on ?

The problem is real! Not only in Canada, but also, in Europe, South America

Spoken like a real man. Thank you for your wise and true words, Sir.

His answer was perfect. remove the weight... her concern was fake. his answer was real..

For real immigrants, not min wage tim Hortons workers

Why people said this guy is brilliant or something else any one can say or use sweet words but the main point is action so I don’t think his word is not real when we came to fact because Saudi is the biggest enemy of Palestine than Israel period sorry to say that this is sad but it’s fact

CRIMINAL RACKET - The housing crisis WILL NEVER BE SOLVED....because the gov't doesn't want it to be solved. The gov't incentivized the housing bubble...so why would it try to solve it?? The so-called 'asset class' of opportunistic exploiters..and voting base...are heavily invested in the bubble...which is keeping Canada's economy ALIVE.....So why would gov't and its voting base want it to end??THEY DON'T! Think about it people.....Every house built by gov't depreciates others' home values..and puts the bubble in jeopardy of being burst. .....so everyone with something to lose...gov't, voting base, flippers, investors, greedy and parasitic...WANT THE EXISTING HOUSING DESPERATION TO CONTINUE...BECAUSE IT'S THIS VERY DESPERATION THAT'S MAKING THEM ALL RICH!! AGAIN.....THINK ABOUT IT PEOPLE. Building homes is not in the interests of these GREEDY EXPlOITATIVE INVESTORS...WHO ARE HEAVILY CONNECTED TO GOV'T...AND ITS AGENDA OF KEEPING THE BUBBLE GOING AS LONG AS THEY CAN!! THIS IS THE REAL AGENDA BEHIND THEIR LACK OF ACTION ON THE HOUSING CRISIS. BUSTED!

Our cocky powers are destroying this country, evil tactics. End Game, these are the Last Days. Jesus Christ is Real, Consequences will be felt out to non believers. Blessings!

The real problem will come during DJTrump ??deportation proceedings.. if Harris can fly them in DJTrump ??can fly them out and also change the rule to no temporary residence status making sure this will never ever happen again.. how can Biden violate his oath of office to defend and protect the USA and still not be held accountable for destroying the Constitution with failed policies. Impeach Biden!!!!! Please do it Mike Johnson

While affordability is def an issue there are a number of facts thrown around on this video that are making me question the data points being used. $3k rent sure, if you're downtown Vancouver and live on your own in a newer building with amenities which is what a friend of mine pays in Yaletown. But then I have a friends in KITS paying $1600, Main St $1500, Surrey $1100. There is not 7% of the population emigrating to the US. The rent can't be increased by $7000 as stated by the two girls, it's capped at around 3% annually, so not sure what the real context around that clip is. The girl who took a year to get housing at UBC - presumably she was renting somewhere else in Vancouver, I doubt she was living out of her car . Sounds like this was made with the most sensational examples which really undercts the video because I can't trust the other information about things I don't directly know. Having said that red tape has made building in Vancouver difficult and population growth has put huge pressure on the housing and rental market. Foreign investment purchases of housing has probably driven up the prices more than anything in Vancouver and as stated it has been linked to money laundering from drug money. It's the most expensive city in Canada btw, so while prices are high across the country, Vancouver is the worst of the lot, even worse than Toronto, so hardly an average example to look at.

I’m so sorry that you have to leave due to hate and or feelings that you are somehow not welcome. It is NOT what REAL Canada is all about. Canada is not what it used to be and it is a tragic loss. I feel so depressed that this is happening to such good people. I wish you well. Leaving is our LOSS.

Grass is always greener on the other side. US has more violent crime, school shootings, homeless, drugs, and inaccessible health care. US foreign policy and economic strength make it both a leader and a target in all kinds of conflicts, which damages the security and future outlook for an average person. Not to mention the clowns and criminals ruling the federal government and running for president.. European countries have their own issues, Asian countries their own (they have greater economic inequality and sexism, among other issues).\n\nI still consider Canada one of the best places to live. I have a good job and a good life here, I feel secure. Yes, there are things I don't like as well, that's why I earn in Canada and travel extensively to get the best of all countries.\n\nAnd finally, the reason real estate is so expensive in Canada is because of how many people want to live here. It's obvious – if Canada stopped being one of the top immigration destinations, real estate would stop growing in value so much.

I am not a racist, but the poop thing is real... I can't bear these people and most of them working in the food industry! HolyCOW!

If Palestinians were only allowed to be automatically relocated to Delaware where Biden lives you would see things change in Israel overnight. Netanyahu would see the real Biden.

Canada PM Trudeau is an Asshole.. \nWe Indians shown this pest his real place time and again

Investment capitalism is buying as much as possible real estate. As for immigration, historical fact, it destroys the domestic population.

I have a real university degree and i;m a red seal tradesman.. i can't get a frickin job atm and not only are wages going down but our dollar is losing all it's strength. i know a woman who posted that she needed an employee on indeed .. she had 657 job applicants within 2 days.. in a small town of 80 000. Like FFS already.. My son or any of his frens can't find work either!

Why are they giving it to them.Government is the real reason.

Muslim speaking basic,real behind person trying violence hiding agenda, force seek force will be back beyond pretending?

Record number of canadians permanently leaving canada right now... The Teudeau effect....\n\nCanada standard of living tanking to thirld world country status... dont But real estate as prices heading much lower

People are not seeing the real-root cause of problem. Massive Refugee from Haiti, Congo, Cameroon and Middle Eastern Countries (french speaking Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco, Mauritiana, Lebanon refugees are the real cause!!) due to Roxham Road between US-Quebec border entry was used to secretly dump millions of people between 2015-2024. \n\nBecause all above mentioned countries' refugee are french speaking, and due to thier french-speaking abilities, they are often viewed as Qubecers and there has been no step from either Quebec Govt or Canadian Govt to stop those migrants and hard working poor international students are getting all the unfair heat!!! The border points from Midland British Columbia to Maine-New Brunswick, there has been massive Canada-bound migrations and mostly thru french-speaking provinces such as Quebec, New Brunswick. \n\nSTUDENTS ARE NOT THE PROBLEM IT IS THE REFUGEE S and Asylum seekers FROM FRENCH_COLONIZED COUNTRIES from Africa, Carribean and Middle East!! Universities and Colleges were always full of International students even back in 1990s, 2000s and 2010s!\n\nIn City of Montreal, there was anti-hatian waive in 2014-2015 even in conservative Stephen Harper's time because French speaking provinces were getting all these African-french and French-Mohammads and French-Abdullahs from Tunisia, Algeria, and Morocco and Lebanaon. Now those millions have spreaded over all canada.

The spill over effect is condo sales are slow \nJobs are lost in the construction industry \n\nThe landlord tenant board should be dismantled and let lamdlords take tenants to real court \nWith garnsihments and penalities and fruad charges

The hat guy needs a real job! If he gets paid for this nonsense, canada can better use the international students for work?\n\nCanada is freemarket!

Real international students brings resources to Canada. Government needs to look into students that actually come not for study but to work (making money back home). Besides, why entrepreneurs and start up programs that will benefits our society gets so hard to proceed (taking over years to complete)? Why nanny home support worker can come to Canada as permanent resident so fast and easy? The people of Canada need to be aware of these strange policies that were made. The policy makers do not use their brains measuring the actual needs of Canada. They make no efforts to look into how their policies will affect the lives of the people, the system of Canada including medical systems, our infrastructure or housing. They do not care if our society can have enough to support these low skilled workers and families, and also the new refugees and families. Can our economy support all these new families? Nowadays the economy of the world is so challenging, but would these policies makers care about this? They are not stupid then there must be some reasons behind. How can the normal citizens protect their rights? BUT wait…, all these new families are growing, these new comers will protect their rights too….

Real international student brings money and high quality people to Canada. However,there are some students coming to Canada aiming to work and to gain income back home. Why entrepreneurs and start up programs that can bring money to Canada takes years (over 3 years) to process and the number of applications is shrinking. Canada needs money to sustains the economy. Importing thousands and thousands of servants but not enough money to pay? Why don’t they look into the infrastructure and the system of the country when planning their immigration policies? The money behind these policies must be big.

We're happy at least no more competitor in job markets and stop from making Canada a breeding ground for this indns thats the real situation today.?

What a load of shit. How is the fed responsible for these costs? It has nothing to do with the fed, it is the capitalist economic theory that brings you here. Bullshit inflation that is actually capitalist greed, real estate prices that are so high due to an auction system they implemented decades ago. All of this is due to a lack of regulation, PERIOD!
