Incredible how some persons directly affected have decided to move on , yet Johnny Trash cannot let it go. As if their Lily Whitey compatriots have never done anything wrong or ever made a mistake in their miserable lives. Admit it, you people lie in wait for this kind of event to occur -- to make you feel alive!

Medical issues? Yet he was driving...?....there were no brake skid marks, he most likely was tired and was a sleep. And he tried cheating and owner of company owned a unsafe vehicle. He should of got 25 years with owner

He gets deported, yet the owner of the company who broke countless safety rules only got a $5000 fine and lost his business. He should also be deported in that case.

Dude explained how most of the cost increase is a seed being sowed for decades already, yet tacitly only showing trudeau’s footage and using contemporary phrases like “current” government… u’re low key condemning trudeau for all of it. While it is tru that the trudeau government hasnt done what it can to stop this and is a pretty bad government, it is important to give “credits” to exactly where it is due.

So let's get this straight...Canada has universal health care, a robust legal system, a growing top ten economy, world class education that is amongst the lowest cost in the world and yet Canadians are unhappy? The real reason is the rot that permeates social media and has driven the rise of populist extremists like we have in the US. There is an army of extremists and foreign state actors that are focused on disrupting democracies for their gains. Stop listening to these sources and you might discover things are going pretty well.

Hello Lillian, I wanna know that when you're attempting to register with Groupe Savoie, does it take time for the form to be released to you? I kept trying and was told 'I have already sent a request for a form.' I am yet to recieve any form too

And yet all the homes are filled and the restaurants are full all weekend. Go figure.

Change... all that hard working Canadians are left with after yet another Trudeau ruined this country.

There is plenty of humanitarian aid going into Gaza. They sell their boxes in the streets, proving they dont need the humanitarian aid being supplied.\n\nAlso, their neighbors have a right to live in their land in peace. Yet 10/07/23 occurred

The immigration problem is very real and im glad you brought it up. I'm tired of being called a bigot for simply recognizing that the we dont have enough homes to sustain our citizens, let alone new migrants. I think we need to severely cut down immigration until we can build the required infrastructure to support them.\n\nWhat the trudeau government has done to this country has made me utterly hopeless. I see no future for myself here and yet I also have no idea how to leave this nightmare of a country.

Wow any idea why people are crazy to enter canada bcoz standard of livibg is good in your country and any idea how much cost it occurs to stay and study in canada i am not good in conversions but lemme tell u its very very high people literally sell everything they have in india to go and study there now just assume why do people sell like crazy people just to study i mean think about it bcoz of PR they sell like crazy if they can invest that amount in india they can get a degree from good universities in india and good jobs but if the same amount is invested in canada the standard of living will improve by obtaining canadian citizenship now if u r sane person think about it its all about standard of living and its not crime to look for better life and at the start of applying in universities of canada a job and PR were available as options so indians applief there with that intention now if u change those rules overnight the money we invested is just thrown into dustbin and i dont know why people think its wrong things to even protest on that if u hate immigration that badly dont show ur anger on indians or other immigrants show that anger on ut government for showing us indians a better future and allowing us indians to enter ur country legally with PR in future prospect Nd why do u think even after such outrage on immigration canada yet allows immigrants bcoz its simple people spend like crazy for such oppurtunities and canada has taken advantage of that and now canadians like we got ur money so get out from our country wow i ddidnt know people can be this greedy and selfish.

I mean why should we indians should adopt your culture lets talk about culture eating with hands is part of indian culture when entering into your house u remove ur slippers before and in same way christians follow their own culture now as long as my way of culture doesnt harm anyone physically whats wrong in following my own culture we are not imposing any things like peaceful people we r just following our own one but yet since white people alongside me gonna feel not so canadian so according yo them i should start being a christian wow what a load of BS and i dont want to be a hypocrite lets assume we indians become a minority in a place in india and canadians become a majority then yeah as a human nature for sure i will feel the change and i maynot like that i mean whites replacing us and we becoming minority in our own country yeah for sure i gonna feel bad but at the end of day its natural

Freedom of speech.\n\nThe only difference here is the man is not calling for the death of a people whereas these pro-plasticine supporters were, yet he's the one they're calling racist... f'n laughable. They can give it but they cant take it.

I am not an Indian but I had lived in India for 15+ years. These people are so corrupted that westerners will not be able to fathom. Just last month a state minister's (Prajwal Revanna) video was leaked on the Internet. He made 2900 vidoes of sexual exploitation and violent abuse of women. His father is a member of the Parliament and his grandfather was an ex-Prime Minister of India. He slipped out the country and is in Germany. No action yet. Asifa Bano, an 8 year old village girl was gang rap***d by six people. Four of them were police officers. These are the types of people entering Canada.

Fun fact is that the Canadian often blame Chinese for driving up the Realstate market, yet the Americans are biggest buyers.

Canada is yet another example of why communism doesn't work.

Hey poilievre they can’t vote yet so why are you pandering to them?!

Get out. It's the only fair solution for us Canadians. What foreigners want is irrelevant.\n\nAnd here's Trudeau causing a problem then swooping in to save the day yet once again. And when he swoops he causes more problems.\n\nI'm an immigrant. I talk to immigrants of all kinds on a regular basis. None of us think this influx is a good idea or sustainable.

Amazing .. and ironic they call Muslim terrorist , yet both ww1 , ww2 started in western so- called Christian region

If you are a Canadian teaching ESL in Japan and your work visa expires, you are sent home. Japan is awesome, arguably better than Canada, and yet there are no entitled Canadians there who expect Japan to change it's policies.

So if an immigrant can get a Canadian citizen tax payer funded job the government will let them stay. Cool sounds about right par for the course for our government. Imagine going to another country, going to school there, failing, then demanding handouts from their country. U mad yet? If the government won't send them home, Canadian citizens will create innovative solutions.

They will be allowed to stay, they have two legs.\nIf you haven't figured out this is a cult yet...

It's not the fault of the student's. They pay a lot to get here and they work in the service jobs that many young Canadians do not want to work in if we even have enough native born Canadians. They are victims of the greed of Post Secondary institutions and the mismanagement of the Trudeau government. Take a look at the open immigration policy for people coming from Iran, Syria and Morocco. Last time I looked Iran was not a friend yet we open the door to these countries. No vetting, no security and no age limit. 70 plus years old coming to Canada on Work Permits. This will affect our healthcare. Indian students paid and worked for their chance to live here. Take a look. Investigate the special programs for different countries in the middle east.

Have they claimed racism yet? Have they stated whites are colonial slavers that don't get to say anything because of racism? Waiting, waiting, yep, there it is.

Definitely they will be allowed to stay. The Liberals haven't destroyed this country completely yet

This is a joke..Theses students are not Canada citizens this is crazy and Canada is being taking advantage of...This wouldn't even happen in their country we would be jaile or throne out...Whst a waist of tax payers money...Oyr own Canada citizens are homeless and rents have sky rocket yet thses international students thinks they have more rights not...Time to go back ...

Canadians are fed up with immigrants yet all political parties want more. Vote PPC

They were colonized by the white man, yet they want to live in a white run country. How ironic, should of let the British run the country.

IDK BUT THE OLD CANADIAN,WORKERS DOESNT WANT TO RETIRE YET, 80 90 YRS OLD STILL WORKING, THEY SAID THEY DONT HAVE ENOUGH MONEY FOR RETIREMENT YET

Guys dont forgot who causes this problem in the first yet they were warned by government officials

We aren't a communist country...yet.

Canada is being run by spoiled rich kids who have never experienced hardship of any kind yet this is who Canadians vote for so it seems it is all dependent upon their poor choices, folks get what they ask for and then when their choices turn out badly blame others..

As someone who lives near vancouver, this is something that I am truely worried about. I don't own a home yet, but where I live, it's more like 500k a year. It really scares me. Thank you for making this video.

Amazing response. Respectfully. I believe if we all just say hi hello to everyone walking by randomly we make amazing humans but yet we fight

So we’re both unfriendly to business yet also allow oligopolies. We don’t get enough foreign investment yet foreigners or ruining the housing market as investors. Somehow I don’t think the conservatives will do any better. ?

It's not the brain drain. We never had the brains to drain. Post-secondary education in California cost 1/3 what it does in British Columbia. The State of California has the same population as Canada, yet its GDP is 3x greater than the Dominion of Canada. My Grandson in Florida won a full College scholarship at 11 years of age, and they are rapidly catching up to California. Go figure!

Wait. 1890 PEOPLE REPUBLIC OF CHINA IS NOT A COUNTRY YET

When any system is overwhelmed by volume..due to poor planning, poor resource management, lack of or poor controls, you will have issues. Immigration is a system of processes. This system, along with cost, resources, and time, constitute a value stream. So, what Canada has is an ill defined value stream. It was designed for 100 people, yet it is now dealing with 10,000 people at eny given time. \n\nIt is time to go back and define the requirements. This means reining in the volume, cost, and related. This will mean difficult choices on ehere to put the money. It will mean trade-offs. We have already shown that universities and provinces can not manage this....only looking for money. \n\nIt is time to start looking at having a more robust input or immigration system. Yes, it will appear heavy, and it means saying 'NO' in certain situations. One can not be everything to everyone. \n\nDefine the guard rails of the processes. Make them clear and concrete. Make thrm known. The rigorously enforce them. It is a black and white input. \n\nAdditionally, regarding university and Canada, perhaps it is tome to take the right of allowing an international student to specify a specific university. Maybe they should be assigned based upon their chosen major and the load factor...the idea is all else being the same... even costs, their intake is assigned a priority, and the slot they get assigned to is based upon level loading and capacity of the system. They have no say as far as which university...just that they will have a coat effective, high quality, result.

So simple yet the republican war mongerors dont get it.

Nice try bud... you are yet another trying to stop people to move there.

i'm from hong kong, about to come to canada (vancouver) this coming fall for a master's degree in city planning at ubc. i haven't watched the video yet, but reading these comments has me feeling seriously anxious and worried now...

what he said is true, yet, Saudi arabia is in coalition with the US and the Israelis ,in the Levantine we suffered from Israeli aggression as much as we suffered from Saudi politics.

*shrugs* Canadian here. No interest in leaving, especially to the US of all places.\n\nI mean think that through. My income tax is around 17% of my income. My capital gains on investments is around 15%. I get free health care (which while obviously not free - is paid out of my taxes, yet isn't rationed or in-network restrictions, doesn't have copays and cover 90% of my medical needs). I have a government that even at its worst, is orders of magnitude more rational and public serving than the US (and god help you if Trump gets back in). Not to mention a country that doesn't literally have a major gun violence/mass shooting even EVERY FRICKING WEEK, unlike the US.\n\nAnd yes, I live in Metro Van and I have an 850 sq ft two bedroom apt I'm renting for $1250/mo - so maybe the problem isn't simply that the housing market is too tight (which it is), but that you've picked a city in high demand that's boxed in on four sides - ocean to the west, mountains to the north, US border to the south and what little farmland the lower mainland can sustain to the east. You could, of course, move elsewhere in Canada like Edmonton or Calgary, but yeah...not whiny enough, I guess.\n\nSorry, you're entitled to you views of course, but I can't help thinking most of your problems are self-inflicted... so yeah, move to the States.\n\nI'm SURE it'll work out better for you....

I just met a couple from Canada. They see the flaws but won't move to the US. It's also expensive to live here but you have to pay for other expenses like health care out of pocket. They don't want to live somewhere that every nut job can have guns, where schools are failing to teach basics and are not safe places for kids. I feel like many Americans will point out the splinter in the eye of other countries, and yet ignore the rafter in America's eye. People from other countries don't fear America because it has the most powerful military, they fear it because insanity continues to grow and common sense continues to die.

Liberals led BC for 16 years housing went up 4 times since 2005. Yet Canadian elected liberal for their federal government I don't know what all Canadians were thinking

A lot of this video is directly aimed at Trudeau's leadership, but this is completely forgetting the role of the provincial and municipal governments. They play a major role in building housing and planning cities, and yet basically all of this video is taking potshots at Trudeau. That's not to say Trudeau is free of criticism, but I would've liked a little more nuance there. Especially when people are so polarized at the federal level, the journalistic duty is incredibly important here. Personally, I don't think Trudeau can solve this, but I don't think any single politician can. Especially Pollievre who's got next to no credible plan to tackle the affordability crisis. We have to do better.

It's really getting ridiculous - I'm making 6 figures, and was living comfortably until 2018. Now I have to pinch every single penny. One thing that changed is I had my first-born. But it should not be this expensive to raise of family of 1 child. It's getting ridiculous. We've been considering emigrating elsewhere. \n\nHaving done everything - from going to university, making sacrifices to afford a first home - yet we're still regressing in life. This shouldn't be. \n\nI thought Canada was heaven on earth - but that view has changed, as it's getting more difficult to survive, forget thrive.

Honestly I found this video pretty disappointing. The host has an agenda and only asks leading questions to (mostly random) homeless dudes to try and get confirmation about his anti-immigration stance. SHOCKER - they all agree! Why don't you make any attempt to interview any of the immigrants or refugees you claim are the major cause of the problem? Like, cmon man - at least TRY to give a balanced take. Or better yet, talk to more people doing work to combat homelessness, instead of inserting random clips of junkies that you play up for laughs. As it stands, this is just under-researched clickbait. Try harder!

Not to mention the environmental impact building 500 000 new houses would cause. Here is another side to this argument no one has mentioned. Bringing in this many new people causes need for more everything, homes, schools, groceries stores, etc. In the last two years my town in the GTA has built more then 20 new apartment buildings and many townhouse complexes. They are building them in the small forested areas I used to play in as a kid, buying up farms outside of town to continue urban sprawl. And yet the government claims it cares for the environment? the mass destruction of nature says otherwise.
