Didn’t even get into the stupid inter provincial fighting (vetoing pipelines, etc). The country has also suffered from a perpetual identity crisis and for too long prided its self on not being American while being an almost identical twin to its neighbour down south. \n\nThis unexceptional display of a weak identity and economic brain drain show why merging with the us is the answer long term. \n\n“It’ll never happen!” Mentality is a testament to the lack of creativity and big ideas needed to advance that’s cemented into people’s minds here. \n\nThe video highlighted that well.

while I agree with a lot of this video theres one crucial aspect this video neglects and same with the commenters here.. POPULATION. \n\nCompared to countries like denmark, sweden, japan, france, uk, etc. we have a much bigger country to maintain landmass wise. Infrastructure. USA is similar but they have 10x the population as us. Our population in canada is pathetic. Problem is everyone stays in ontario or BC which is stupid, im in sask I want population. Another thing about infrastructure is our climate. We have such drastic events in our climate across our huge country that takes a toll. Climate problems with our low population is not a good thing. I mean most people outside canada and even within Canada dont believe me but Saskatchewan goes from like -45 to +45C with windchill/humidex. Our forests are on fire often, that is not normal. That costs so much money to fix as well. In summer sometimes, Nunavut or NWT will be warmer then here, we talk about it here when it happens. Think about that. Weather is HUGE in saskatchewan. We talk about weather daily. I never realized until internationals pointed that out that we are obsessed with weather in sask lol. \n\n Our housing market is a joke and I agree we need to invest more in buisnesses but at the same time we need affordable housing, we are in a weird spot. As far as working etc goes people commenting here lol the golden years of the 80s are gone old timers, my parents realize this that you guys were spoiled in one of the greatest time periods in human history - post WWII boom and the effects. I could go on and on how the 70s-90s were one of the best time periods in modern history for various reasons but I wont. There are problems internationally, we live in a globalist world. We still have it good. Go travel and make international friends. This is nothing that we are dealing with at the moment. All I will say though is leave the huge metropolitans like Toronto and Vancouver. Everyone wants to go there because they think 'theres more opportunity' ugh. Theres opportunity across canada but if everyone things like that there will be problems. The idea of Ontario or BC is just a big nope for me (although I go to BC every couple years, love it there I would not want to live there).

This what happens when you give equal rights to extremist islamist peoples. The same equal rights you never ever get in any islamic country. British people need to save their Sovereignty

This is so fucked up. There is literally no respect for this country or for those of us who work so hard to keep it the best country on earth. These people coming from shit hole countries are about to do the same to the US as they did to their previous land. Our country is being ravaged by people who have no roots here and we are just letting it happen.

Thank the Democrats for letting this happen. We cannot support the people we have now so how are these people going to get the help they need? I guess these liberal cities can keep taking them in since it's their policies letting it happen. I guess if these cities get tired of footing the bill maybe they will stand up and say something to their leaders and tell them enough is enough. They don't want the wall they don't want to give the ice agents and border patrol the help they need and they keep blaming Americans for their stupid policies but they sure will bring in hundreds of IRS agents to take your money and arrest you if they don't think you're paying what they deem acceptable. I think most Americans are sick of this administration and want it gone. Their giving more rights to illegals and other countries than the people who live here. This administration is going after the rights and freedoms of all Americans and trying to turn the Constitution into some old document that doesn't have any relevance in today's world. They're pushing more and more communistic laws through our government to strip Americans of their rights. People need to wake up and see that this administration doesn't give a damn about you or this country.

Stupid AZZ black people President let this happen. Democrats ain't worth a shit. Trump now. Republicans always protected America

This is what happens when you vote democratic. Wake up people!

What happen if people try to invade Mexico’s lands?

We are on the verge of a huge food shortage, and higher inflation. What’s going to happen when there’s no food, and millions and millions of extra people! Have you seen what’s going on in Chicago, businesses are just packing up and leaving because of the looting. Prepare people.

All these people think they've got some sort of right just forcing there way into other countries it's happening all over the world

What the bleeding hearts fail to see or understand is these people do not speak English, they do not have a grade 3 education - they can not compete in the job market in the USA because they do not have the skills needed to qualify...\nBy allowing in illegals and encouraging this behavior, we are making criminals out of every one of them...\nJust what do you think will happen when they can not find a job? They still have to survive!! \nBy allowing them entry to an open market they have not the skills to be a part of, we are making criminals out of everyone of them.\nIt's a known fact people revert to the skills they have to make ends meet...\nIt's not a kindness, it's a death trap or jail sentence which costs tax payers money...when will the bleeding hearts ever learn?

Happens Everyday thanks to Our Horrible President Joe. Can't wait until 2024 and We the People will VOTE AGAIN for The REAL President Donald J Trump. This would not be happening. They better just go back Home because they will be deported.

The VENEZUELAN PEOPLE voted for that piece of shit called socialism… once they were the most educated country in South America until they started learning socialist propaganda. Sadly it’s slowly happening to the USA too! People need to understand that free comes at a prize.

Something Big Has To Be Taking Place There, For This Amount Of People Swarming Like That! The Only Time I’ve Seen Something Like That , Was In A Zombie Apocalypse Movie Or The Movie ,”I AmLegend”! All I’m Saying Is Something Is Happening Down There, That The Media And The Powers That Be Allegedly, Doesn’t Want Us Who Are Watching To Know What Exactly Is Happening…

I want to now go to Venezuela to see what is going on because people look terrified, and if it wasn’t for language barriers, we would be able to talk to them clearly and find out what’s going on with them look at their behavior ?no one willingly leaves their home and I feel that someone knows what’s happening there

All these comments about being homeless and closing the borders. ????? Really amazing how people DO NOT REALIZE what is really happening in our countries' government. ( Meaning all countries' governments). ❤️??. I mean the United States government isn't any better. Oh yeah the U.S. government gives us money so we should be good. In the meantime our human rights are being disrespected by police themselves (government) most of the time

Because we're the best country in the world and people want to be here that's why this is happening

The Raza has been planning to take over California for almost a hundred years when the financial collapse happens there will be all kinds of his people are literally coming for the Mexican-American war they know it but you don't

You just can’t push yourself into Mexico or any other country that these people are coming from. You will find your self in their prisons in a heart beat and those prisons are terrible places. There a right way to enter the USA and these people are trampling on our laws and customs by doing this. America has been very kind to them and look what happening. They seem to have no regard for our laws.

Lock the borders down, fix us first. We crime, poverty, economic crisis, and much much more! We need to fix our country before we let abunch of others be let in and ruin our country. America must think of the interests of her and her people and her alone. None of this would have happen if all your MF would have just kept trump in office American would have been great now but instead we fell back and have a powerless government I want my country to be number 1 and have growth! We need a republican back in office again! Republicans for 2024! No more sleepy joe we need to MAGA!

This is because of putting Biden in the White House Biden doesn't know what's going on. He's just a pawn by the people in the background that are controlling the policies. Why they would want to do this to the country's unbelievable? They are here to take our resources if trump was charged this would not happen

I waited in Mexico for my residence for 3 years when I married my husband, he is Canadian, I never lived illegally in Canada... before, I used to come to work with a work permit and these people cry because their papers did not arrive for a year.., I I was separated from my family for 3 years and I never tried to cross illegally... what happens with these people, they want everything easy and they only abuse the Canadian system

Give them guns to take over the U.S. That is how the U.S. was taken over by white people from the Native Indians. Murder has no statute of limitations. Genocide of American native Indians. 40 years ago my friends anthropology professor predicted this would happen. What goes around comes around.

What's sad is America's can barely find affordable housing for themselves and what do you think is happening in Mexico that thousands of people at once tried to cross the border something bad is happening

I hope everyone is safe, this is really stupid but I understand the desperation these people must be in to be willing to risk their lives and some with small children with them. It’s heartbreaking and I’m sorry this happening. I’m American but I’m a human being first before anything and this sad to see

What the hell is happening !? What the hell is there in Canada for this illegals! These people don't have families in Canada nor any reason to be in Canada

Fuck up we need to help are people get out of Mexico and find a way to get them papers it's all on the presidents to make that happen if there's a will there's way ?

If this happen in other countries borders, these people will be shoot automatically.

The pragmátic topic here is that the U.S. government is fomenting this negative point with the so called embargo on Venezuela, this has been happening since the emabrgo commenced, we all know that Venezuela was in bad shape, but with the embargo it has been very difficult for many many people in Venezuela. If someone did not know about this, now you are informed.

You might not like how things look, but letting people have a better life is the right thing to do. Just make it happen.

That's what happened when they let other people over here undocumented and they feel that they should come to

Then they come here & are so nasty push race I'm so tired of the nasty attitudes MS13 killings this is really bad for america I'm sure we can tell with the robberies in Walmart army men running threw to catch them they literally think everything is free attacking America they don't even put it on the news the effects America's happening we need Guns cause these people are disrespectful and say this is there land and we took it

No we can tell you what happened with member that basketball that they nicely they did it was their marketing guy then the next thing they know they got hit over the floods hurricanes and earthquakes and stuff. Yeah see when you go around marking identity a god guess what you brought that on yourself period you getting high but statue of God looking over your whole country and then you sit up there and mark them send it you gonna start wishing it doesn't and this what God took his words very seriously period now wipe it to all those people they start pushing up now everybody want to start coming through. I have no issues with Venezuela. But at some point you have to be able to rise up and guess whatever tyranny your government is doing. But due to the United States and Venezuela have a history. And we have caused some some other time damages that's done in Venezuela. If you need to assist not take over where the people is more comfortable notice I said the people not the government cuz we shouldn't be taking over the government what happened to people people the people themselves can re-establish the government how they wanted to be what best fit them

From 2001 - 2021 trillion$ we're made in profits from the Afghanistan war alone. The profits went to members of Congress, defense contractors, and investors. Nothing went to the American people or even to the nation's infrastructure. The American people's taxes funded those profits. The US government destabilized the Venezuelan government, stole that nation's funds which they entrusted to US banks, then placed sanctions on them because they refused to allow a US puppet regime to run their nation. What's happening at the border is blowback from situations created by corrupt and incompetent US politicians. Our worst enemy isn't some foreign nations. Our worst enemy is on Capitol Hill and Wall Street.

lol don't they believe in human rights anymore ? if this happened in any other country the Western media will start talking about violation of human rights and shi but anyways it's USA fault because they were exaggerated talking about the American Dream that many people outside the US wanna live.

Why is it happening ?, maybe because we live in a corrupt world, that's why, people are tired, and if you haven't been on their shoes, please don't coment against .

Actually what happened was the Mexican cartel told a ton of migrants that the bridge was going to be accepting all people for a short period in an attempt to draw focus away from the current war going on between cartels and the Mexican government, this used resources from both the Mexican side and the American side.

... ???? this has to be the season finally of America Inc \n\nIf rich countries shared wealth instead of just looting resources, non of this would have happened. These people are not criminals, they just want to live in a peaceful land, where they can work and raise their family.

Yeah so someone about 5 years ago tried to put up a wall… He was called raciest and a bigot.. The problems that are happening now followed. America was cranking people were making more then ever, then democrats made a plea of stop working, coronavirus is bad get the shot. This country has literally been run straight through the ground in the last 2 years. Trump didn’t want everyone to stay home I’m with him it caused more harm then good… I’m sad for America and so are most veterans. To the point most people are scared to open there mouths for fear of the government coming and silencing them.. sounds familiar right

That what happens when the USA goes and tries to control other people countries \nNow you can’t handle them coming here

Canada can’t even take care of the people they already have and this shit is happening? What a fucking joke.

What ever happen to fix home 1rst.Our streets are full of homeless people born and raised here,Some of them been out there for years.America the disgrace.....

My parents came to this country in the 70s from a small country in SAmerica. they brought me 3 years later and my handicap brother 2 years later. The USA embassy made my parents sign a paper stating that my brother will not used any government assistance ( he had polio when he was little so he has to walk with scratches) and that's what my parents did until my brother got a job. He worked for 40 years in the same job until he retired 6 years ago. With the exception of the mass rehab center for job training, my brother never used government assistance. \nI remember my mother and I we used to wake up at 4 o'clock in the morning to shovel the snow from the driveway so it would be safe for him to walk to his car to go to work at 5 am. I am very proud of my brother. \nSome people think that receiving government assistance is smart, but we think is not bc it makes you a dependent, you loose your sovereignty as an individual. And these people don't realize that. Personally I think these people are getting paid to do this bc this is not normal. \nIn the other hand, the USA government in the quest to protect its interests ( mainly the corporate interests) support candidates that will go along with what the US says. \nI would like to point out that in this country, there's plenty of corruption, do u do anything about it? ! Jan 6 is the only time that I see it happening ( for me, Jan 6 will forever be a very important holiday)

OMG! We can't even find food her now this is happening ?. We can't afford anymore people here

Oh my god what’s happened for people to charge the boarders this shouldn’t be happening governments around the world need to step up and protect the boarders and don’t mean that nasty but this is way to much

The US can barely take care of it’s own people must less more from other countries. And most wanna come here to reap the benefits the state provides like free housing, food stamps, medical benefits, which is why we’re facing a financial collapse as it is. What happens then I wonder??

This is out of control what happened to the wall I love peace on earth and feel bad people’s r push threw to come to usa ?? but shit every thing here is a mess and for the ones that live and born here it’s so hard to get even help this situation doesn’t make it better God bless us all

What are they running from? Why do they want desperately to leave their country. What’s happening over in Mexico? That amount of people something is really weird.

Immigrant live is hard?.\nMost of Us are Immigrants but can't go in by force to a house of Someone. Try to cross the border in Europe and see what happens. Communist lead people do this. They kill people to live a Rich live with families, I really know very well the Story.

Why are the running from Mexico. If they leave Mexico what happens to the economy there. How bad is it really in Mexico. The president there should be ashamed to see his people running from his country.
