“ they’re showing us things that they want us to see”…. Of course they are but they cannot save the world at the expense of their own citizens!…. No country can! They need to stay and fix their own countries

people are going to start taking things into their own hands

Shouldn't cost 41k in rent, you should be able to buy a home, it should be a human right. Landlords. Funny thing about pigs, they're slaughtered in farms.

Get people to drag her out of the condo and move all her things into storage and give her the storage unit key. Also give her 2 weeks rent in a cheap motel. Then move into the condo and change the locks.

The stuff you can do in non-commercial Rental and Leasing is mind boggling. IF the government likes these free loader and law breakers why not do the same thing in the commercial rental??? Its because the government is simply incompetent. Giving safe heaven to these bad apples out there!

He says that while he continues to take money from the devil, it’s all good saying but doing is the only thing that’s toning to work

And then when they get here, they make every attempt to Change things to be like the home that they ran away from. We don't need a country full of cowards.

Yeaaaah , but the whole towel thing ?

Good this might actually flush speculators out of the housing market and actually make things affordable for primary owners

LTB system needs to change. Neither tenants or landlords are happy with the way things are.

Trust me if the Government owned the property they would freeze the bank accounts of the Tenant and have them removed . When its a citizen its too bad for them. Things have to change. Give a 3 month of no paying after that they should be removed

Same exact thing happening to Germany. Im homeless since years, couchsurfing friends' places and I was born here and am a nurse.

They have done the same thing here in Australia. Immigration tap is on full bore, basically zero housing available, 10-20 immigrants crammed into each house. We have Australian's earning 6 figure incomes sleeping in their cars because there is just no homes available (even if they can afford it). Our governments hate us with a passion.

Another billion will be paid for war in Ukraine but no money for basic things at home...

Simple solution - use the key he has to the appt and simply go in with him and several relatives and remove all of her things, change the locks and be done with it. Come on she has no recourse

Listen up tenants: you reap what you sow in life. You can't expect good things when you do wrong (they also say karma is a b......) beware!

nothing such thing ,you can see in usa. This is a utter stupid laws in canada, the tenants can enjoy without paying rents for even for years. I don't know what the hell of all these laws where they found such laws on this planet. The tenants never know the value of the property. most of them are all on welfare and child tax benefits. mainly they are cooking and sleeping 24/7 and damaging the property too. if you go to land lord tenants board. they are other stupid. they don't know how a landlord is suffering by all these stupid tenants.

Why. Democrats. To me democrat means nazi. \n\nIf you do things nazis do. Your gonna be catagorized as a nazi

This is the problem, when native canadians have concerns they are racist and far right. Imagine have someone come to your home and make things hard for you.

I have only been in Canada for seven months now, but I noticed a few things about its economy that led to this mess. I noticed that Canada has no globalized companies, meaning the government only makes a little money from doing business with other nations. Businesses here are lazier than their neighbor, the USA, or even in my country, Vietnam, which could be due to a lack of competitors. Cad also has the biggest forest reserve and largest oil deposit but is the lowest exporter. So I wonder how on Earth it stays in the top 10 wealthiest countries with such lazy activities. Up to this point, foreigners are the biggest income of Canada; this country is truly built on immigrants. To keep the country running, it must attract more foreigners. Without int' students, how much do citizens have to pay to keep schools running? If you view it differently, the government also sells the PR through SV Visa because, let's be honest, if millions of investors have invested, there should be something or at least one globalized company, but there are none. From $75k to $200k, foreigners can buy PR for every family member. It is considered affordable for Asian families compared to the USA or Australia. On top of that, another scam is a carbon tax, which means the government needs to learn how to make money rather than invent taxes and sell dreams to foreigners.

Reading the comments, I realize how awful a human being can be, they doesn’t understand the suffering of refugees and yet they say awful things about them\nput yourself in their shoes before judging someone

Nevermind the scapegoating, only 2 things can get us out of this, less people coming in and more housing. So the governement feel the pressure to build more and the people feel the pressure to leave.

this islam thing is the SATANIC VERSE

I've been trying to get gov assistance for months... the exact walmart order I used to get for the week now cost 300 more and they will not give me any assistance... while these ppl get the assistance housing without doing a damn thing

1:34 the reason why Punjabis and indians are not grouped together because Punjabi is an ethnicity, and its not the same thing as indian as our genetic mixup is different of indians and our culture thats why its not grouped together

Thankfully JD Vance isn't our housing minister anymore. (/s) \nBut then again the previous one pretty much did the same thing. The cycle needs to stop and hopefully the Liberals begin hinting at that.

It's genuinely exhausting to watch even so-called progressive outlets like the guardian foment fear and anger against migrants and refugees rather than someone, anyone, possibly questioning whether the incentives for property developers and landlords might, in-fact, be a potential factor in the ongoing housing crisis. But sure, it must be immigration to blame for the exact same housing crisis happening across Canada, Australia, the US, the UK and half of Europe, must be just that one simple factor and definitely not any other systemic or economic factors which might underlie how housing, governance, and migration are linked. \n\nBecause all of those countries certainly have one thing in common, and you're all correct, they all have identical immigration policies, right? Right? Couldn't be the hyper-commodification of housing and development rights stoked under the neo-liberal systems of governance which ACTUALLY forms a shared commonality between these countries. But that would be hard to think about, best just to blame the immigrants, makes life easy breezy. Can't see any problems down the line with that line of thought, right Britain? We'll just keep doing race riots every decade then, instead of actually trying to agitate against any of the problems at the heart of this issue. Solved. Too easy.

Indians complaining about Canada is the funniest thing I seen in a long time.

The alarming thing is that when you voice protest about uncontrolled immigration, you'll be labelled far right by the media. ?

Similar things happening in parts of Australia, high rents people being pushed out of suburbs where they use to live, Immigrants, uni students doing Uber or Doordash just to get by and finding careers they study for won’t exist or over saturated. Families living in tents as houses they go for have multitude of applications not enough affordable infrastructure,\nWe also need smart migration

IF YOU VOTING DEMOCRATS IT WILL NEVER STOP THEY GOING TO LET COME AND EVERY FOUR YEARS IT'S GOING TO BE WORST WHY ELECTION IS EVERY 4 YEARS WAKE UP AMERICANS, I'M SO SICK OF I WORK 20 HOURS A DAY 6 DAYS A WEEK YES I HAVE TWO JOBS AND STILL STUGGLINE AS YOU ALL KNOW IM NY RENT IS CRAZY SOBI HAVE BUST MY ASS TO PAY MY BILLS AND THESE ILLEGALS GET MY HARD EARN TAX DOLLARS WTF THIS IS REALLY PISSING ME OFF I'M VOTING RED ALL THE WAY GOVERNOR KATHY AND THE REST OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY GOT TO GO .THEY NOT FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE THEY LIKE WRONG THINGS AND THEY HATE THIS COUNTRY,

The funny thing is once they land on USA soil. Then they tell everyone one how much they love there home, country. So go back home and fight for your freedom and stop been a burden on other people

We just need to stop immigration at least for now , and the work visas and permits ect.. we need to let our country heal for a few years. That's how badly Trudeau messed things up.

The same thing is happening in :\nEngland \nIreland \nDenmark \nSweden \nFinland \nUnited States \nAustralia \nFrance..\n\nShall I go on ?

The seems are starting to burst, just look at Britain. \n\nThere’s no such thing as a real Canadian as the country was built by various races. If you have a Canadian passport you’re Canadian that’s it.\n\nThe issue lies in continuing to bring in large amount of people with no skills the country needs. The infrastructure is starting to buckle because of that. \n\nAt the very least they should consider shutting down immigration in the large cities to provide labor to smaller towns.\n\nAnother problem is letting foreigners buy properties in Canada who from countries that don’t allow Canadians to buy,\nfor example China. The government shouldn’t allow a Chinese who’s non Canadian buy a house here if we ourselves can’t buy property over there.

This could be a story about Australia where exactly the same thing has been done by our government, the housing market is broken and the large numbers of so called skilled migrants end up driving Ubers or trucks. Large scale rorting of the visa system by international students has been occurring for over a decade.

The only thing I can think of is time travelers just came here in the millions if not billions. That would be the only reasonable thing why a country would do this to their citizens

No matter where you live in Canada we are bombarded with American News so we can see all the bad things that happen in the US. Canadian news is designed to be more of an informative format whereas American News is much more sensationalized so we don't always get to see through the crap! I would agree that much of the USA is quite safe but the reality is that anyone wanting to move from Canada to the USA is more likely to find their best opportunities in larger urban centers where all these concerns become far more real.

The most special thing is ethno-racial segregation. Really. On a country-wide scale. Countries which are of an ethno-racial identity, different from other countries.\nThat makes precious regional distinction,…. which makes precious world diversity.

I have been (mostly) a life long Liberal living in Toronto. I can honestly say, the Trudeau Liberal government has been the worst government at any level I have lived under - including Mike Harris and Bob Rae. Justin Trudeau likes to cut ribbons and make big announcements and spend time on the completely wrong priorities for Canadians. We need a government focused on the economy and the things it takes to build a thriving 21st century economy. Yes, it takes immigrants and those people will need the basics: a job, food, shelter and services. Instead we get dental care, pharm care, daycare - all these things we can't afford and that do very little to build out a thriving economy we need. We have lost decades due to poor planning of our governments and now we all must suffer. It will take generation to fix this, meanwhile our competing countries will all pass us. I will rue Justin Trudeau and his incompetent Ministers and enablers for the rest of my life.

Same thing is happening here in Australia. It's just not sustainable

Translation: Are you serious? You think we want them f'ing things up here?

Progressives are the worst thing to happen to everything.

They say imigration of wealthly individuals curved a recession. First off it was like 0.2 an 0.1 in two quarters so dont act like it wasnt that bad. Also injecting 100's of thousands into the population shouldnt be the fix. Your barely doing your job an pricing everyone out. Its the laziest thing the could have done. Im pro immigration but not like this

No such thing as international students, they are aware that they are scamming the system to get visa

Hey guy just so you know is a new norm things nowadays if you dont like your country just simply pack and walk across any others country borders. Just like your house

The only hope for this country is Poilievre. I say this as someone who is shall we say less than enamored of him. But he's the only guy who is going to slow this flood down, and he's said he will do just that. Trudeau, meanwhile, still can't even be convinced to lower immigration, still can't be convinced there is one single thing wrong with the huge numbers he's bringing in, still just blames the provinces for not building housing fast enough.

Most Canadians despite what you here are pro immigration. It's just that this government has prioritized 1 thing and 1 thing ONLY. NUMBERS NUMBERS NUMBERS. We just bring people here for the sake of adding to a total and gave 0 thought about it's affect on the economy, job markets, housing, culture, crime etc.

Let me get this straight.... I am an Indian, and we are simply sick of Canada immigration policy !! It's so dumb !! Seriously, make it harder ... Like extremely hard like any other first world country ... I feel bad for Canada!! You can't blame anyone but you're own government because there are a billion indians, who you gonna stop ?... Instead focus on quality immigration just like US or other first world countries. And i am really very very sorry ❤ SORRY !!\n\nEdit:\n\nAlso ... Also !! The immigrants you're allowing are pretty much extremists, like wth .... It's a huge headache for Indians and the Indian government, remember the huge fuss over the death of Hardeep nijjar ?? Why ?? Why let extremists even come .... As an Indian I feel disgusted even calling them Indians cuz they keep talking about breaking apart india itself ( especially Punjab ) .... But why ... They should help the economy grow and flourish but instead they indulge in such things and the government supports it !!!?? Uk the best thing you could do as a country is stop immigration ( at least from Punjab ) and 90% of your problems will be over !! See dumb people are all over the world but your immigration cell for some reason selects the dumb ones from India ... Just do what us is doing, ask them or something !!

I completely agree with all that you said, specially how Canada doesn't take care of their immigrants properly, they just want money and they don't see them as humans. I really hope that things can get better... I came to this country as my childhood dream but is sad to see how low is falling.
