At the time when this was made one of the necessity was when sikh community had to protect people of india from tyrant Muslims rulers but in todays age it does not hold the same value or necessity so can or should be changed for something less threatening.

Why they are allowed to carry weapons? Today Sikhs are allowed to carry knives on the pretext of some religious symbol. Tomorrow some other communities will demand to carry explosives and guns. There should be an uniform civil law.

Yes they deserve it , they have created chaos in India. Govt has allowed them to carry kripan of 10 Cm now they are carrying 2 to 3 feet sword and same they r using to create terror among common people. \nIf Indian police would have arrested him like u did , a same police men had beaten by group of Sikh community.

I'll be dead honest and say I'm slowly losing my faith in Sikh community recently, because what these khalistani Sikh guys are doing to Hindu community in Canada(or let's generalize to the whole of North America)

He is our Indian brother from the Sikh community. Kirpan is one of the 6 essentials that every Sikh must carry in Sikhism - Dastaar (turban), Kada (steel bracelet), Kesh (uncut hair), Kangha (wooden comb), Kachcha (cotton underwear) and Kirpan (steel sword). He was wearing a turban. And if they still can't recognize a person from Sikh community from actual troublemakers and terrorists, then it's deplorable. That police officer must be immediately suspended till he learns his lesson. Jai Hind ??

This is unacceptable for Sikh community. The Kirpaan is a religious symbol and date clearly shows that no Sikh has used it in a bad way.

@param road rage me bohot bar sikh talwar nikal dete ho. Bhai road rage koi kisiko murder nai karta. Agar hatapayi bhi hota he, to mere dadhi ko hath lagaya, usko religious angel deke talwar nikal dete ho. Hamara adhikar ka kya? Mandiron pe talwar leke hamla karte ho. Agar kuch kand hota he, sikh community uski ninda karti he aur bo real sikh nai tha, ye sab batate ho. Road me tere sath ladai hojaye to, dusra banda ka to dar rahegana ki tere pass weapon he. Tum log bas baki logon se apne aapko superior maan na chate ho, aur log jab intimidate hote he tum logon se, obviously tum logon ko bohot accha lagta hoga. Purane kamane me sab weapon rakhte the apne protection ke liye. Chae wo hindu ho ya muslim. Abhi protection ke liye police aur army he. Protection karna he to police aur army me jao, school, college me wepaon leke mat aao.

Nigang ne jo police wale ka hath kata tha, uske upar dhag se reply nahi aya comments me. I am waiting what they have to say. @param bhai tu agar itna hi bahadur he, jis clg me allow nai he us clg me jayega, aur dekhega kon rokta he, USA pentagon me ja, aur usa ki uss jagah me ja, janha allowed nahi he. Nai to tu kayar he jo ki janta he, India me sikh community tere sath he(emotional + moral support), aur india me vote bank chalti he. Tu itna bahadur he to ja usa ki court me bhi ja kirpan leke.

This is very annoying....\nU r visiting some other country and thinking that ur customs will be respected....thats too much....\n\nHats off to that police officer who chose safety of citizen above fake seculariam....\n\nI know sikhs r very peaceful community but the thing is if govt get loose on this then radical bastrads of desert will create havoc in that country in the name of their customs....\n\nSo bro,for the safety of that country it is correctly done and should be carry forwarded....

I am proud of you bro that you carry your religion symbol with respect.. they are showing that they don't know anything about gatra sahib. ..but there is a large number of sikh community in USA then how is it possible... Shame on those who just did such kind of ridiculous action

I speak for myself and not on behalf of anyone.\n\nFirstly, in any such situation be it any religion, caste etc, before reacting, imagine if this was happening to your own son/daughter, your own brother/sister. \n\nSecondly what faith one chooses to practice and how they embrace it, be it wearing a kirpan, a burqa, or keeping a shika(choti), etc, especially opinions like what one can or cannot wear/do, lead to more harm than good. We don't live there, it's not our religion, it's not our life, then who are we to condemn and be opinionated about them.\n\nThirdly, whether the kirpan should be allowed inside an educational campus can only be determined by the campus authorities, the local police and the Sikh community representatives there.\n\nYes, he could have and should have worn it on the inside just like so many Brahmins wear the sacred white thread (yajnopavita).\n\nHe could have taken prior permission from the college authorities to freely wear it if possible and all this could have been avoided. Maybe he doesn't get the permission to wear it, who knows, there are countless possibilities.\n\nAnd lastly, I've come across so many comments labelling the Sikhs as Khalistanis, then if there's some other incident, commenting that people of so and so faith are terrorists, etc.\n\nBy all means, please call us Khalistanis, please call us terrorists, call us anything you like, but we'll continue to respect and love everyone.\n\nIt's a shame that our Jawaans are dying on the border fighting for their country, fighting for our country, fighting for us and we are creating divisions amongst ourselves. Petty name calling and what not.\n\nWe are Indians first, any Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, Buddhist, or Parsi...Indian getting harassed is my brother/sister getting harassed. Their loss is our loss.\n\nPS: If I have offended anyone, my apologies.

Taking Knife in campus is really stupidity, even if it is part of Sikh Community. I am Indian, and I belive if you are in India, Sikh can pretty much wear it where you can. But if you are in other country, you should abide by their law. Otherwise why the heck you are even traveling to other countries.

They welcome peace community who killed somany (9/11)handcuff punjabi and give derogatory remarks to hindus, they are truerly intelligent.

We are in different world right now old religion doesn't fit in thos world. If you want to practice your religion, that's fine but do it within your community and leave others who don't believe in this.

As per time things changes\n\nHoly Guruji ordered to carry \nWeapon And other symbols.\n that was very dangerous era in history ..It was suitable & Necessary for Sikh community at 'that' Time.\n\nBut\nNowadays weapon is weapon\nSikh brothers must do something

Still those people are new to Shikh community? Such kind of things keep happening and then static apology letter .

This is stupidity...hope people understand why do certain community carry certain items

Anyone here after attack on Hindu community in Britain ?

Australia is probably friendlier than Canada. Don't expect to connect with white Canadians just any better than you did with white Australians. What Canada may be able to provide you with apart from easier immigration is a larger immigrant community. Lots of Africans and Caribbean people to connect with.

The problem is that often times due to religious practices, a lot of people from minority communities are targeted and have to undergo a lot of scruitiny. Sikhs are amongst the most kind and generous people in the world, apart from being brave, sure this world makes a joke out of them but it is important for people to understand that our religion is important to us, we do follow the rules and regulations laid down by the country but others too have to respect who we are and where we come from, it might seem odd to carry around a kirpan but then again that is no reason to violate someone like this, or their religion's sancitity.

Why all the Jahil people belong to the same community

The fact that it’s a small number of people doesn’t mean Islam is any less to blame. Do you see Christians, Hindus, Sikhs doing this anywhere in any number? There are obviously many in the Islamic community that tacitly support this.

These radicals attacked Hindus with knives at Leicester. Mohammed Hijab conducted Muslim patrol there also . They looted hindu shops and attacked homes. But Islamist media painted hindu as attackers, Islamist community leaders spread fake information of Muslim girl kidnapping by Hindus and attack on mosque. Leicester polic3 denied both . They are mostly Pakistanis.

Being a critical sardar myself, i can certainly say that our community is the most dangerous which comes very close to being called a terrorist outfit, because of the way we behave with outsiders or with different community people..Like we say about Islam being a terrorist supporting faith, Sikh may not support bombings, & killings but they do cause a violent protest(acts of vandalism, hooliganism fully supported by the faith itself is a total shame) in case something is said or goes against them, which is nothing but being TERRORISTS. I no longer like to associate with sardars because of the shame they have brought with their actions.\nI only say, \n1. become TOLERANT, \n2. RESPECT THE LAW OF THE LAND, \n3. LEARN FROM ADVANCED CIVILIZATIONS HOW TO BEHAVE & \n4. make the community better than other communities at least.

30-40% in taxes when you specifically say that you can see where its going and your first argument is why should I work so hard for others..........\nIf you can take your head out of your ass for a second you are part of the country and thus you will benefit. That one comment just sets the tone for a self indulgent self obsessed video.\nAlso in regards to making your fortune, very few people achieve that regardless of where you are. Instead of focusing on unrealistic wealth how about actually focus on stuff you can do.\nI am so sick and tired of this bs, you wont get everything you want anywhere in the world there are always positives and negatives but if you actually did research and not made snap decisions then you would be able to find a place that better suits your values etc.\n If you are so truly unhappy with the country you are living in then why continue to live there?\nI dont mean that from a racist point of view I mean it from lack of money/job prospects/sense of community and so on, just why?\nIf your life is genuinely so miserable then go somewhere else instead of moaning about it to the world expecting sympathy, you had the opportunity to do research on the country and you failed that

Same thing in America, trust me no difference. As one is in their community with their own culture it is not boring. I had to leave my community for a lower cost of living but it is boring. I can’t smell good food cooking, I don’t hear any music coming from the cars or homes and no one dresses nicely. The people are nice and the weather is warmer.

Loneliness? LOL what the F are you talking about? If you’re lonely go join a sports program/ club or find some hobby. There are so many great communities. But if you only want your people there, I guess there’s only one option…

It’s so tiring to be continually reminded that we are not part of the team. We are other. We are black. Everything we do is a representation of the black/African community. Literally, I’m scared to talk back or act accordingly to a situation lear people decide my actions reflect on the whole entire black population of the world. Like? I’m just me and my actions reflect on just me. The next black girl is innocent oh! \n\nI think it’s a heavy load we are forced to carry and it makes 0 sense.

All of things that you mentioned are true and all of them have drastically changed in the past 4 to 10 years with increased immigration. Smaller communities have had prices go up to 3 to 4 times what they were 6 years ago. Growing up here, prices were much lower - there was so much to do - cultural community activities were so much fun. Many Canadians can't go back to their home communities now because the prices have gone up so much. Many Canadians also want to be with their family and friends and not in a home - and do. We travelled all over North America when I was a child, and it was much easier to do then. In summary, I think that many of these things are very recent changes.

Wow.thats the beauty of peaceful community.???

Meanwhile the indigenous tribes of Canada would love to have their country back. Immigration makes everyone miserable: the ones who see their country and communities taken over by strangers and the immigrant that invariably learns there's no place like home.

Great idea to speak out. However, it's the same everywhere. Its a cyclical effect, get paid, pay your bills and if there's extra you save. You need to think how to break out of that and take control of your income. When you're making money and positive impact in your community no one cares if you're black or have accent. Stay positive, I love you guys.

This is such bullshit. nothing you say makes sense . All countries have the ups and downs . There's no reason why you can't save money in Canada maybe you should read the book The Wealthy Barber and you should learn more about money. I am near retirement and it is such a treat not to have to worry about paying for anything and having a guaranteed income when I re— . Embrace the climate and learn to do things that are compatible with the climate if you need to play overseas for short periods of time to get extra warmth in the winter if you need it . this constant bitching is not helpful to anyone . Even in the United States the wait times could be 8 hours in emergency . I am a surgeon so I know. What you doing have is your private insurance company denying you coverage and you have to refer to them every time when you need a particular blood test done. I can have my patients have MRIs or CT scans within 2 days if they need is there a giant . What you need is Doctor Patient Advocates. If your doctor cares he can pull the strings to get you earlier appointments if needs be . there is nothing about this video that makes sense and I would not trade this country for the world Allen speaking from the point of view that I have lived in the Prairies where it gets to minus 30 degrees Centigrade interior with muggy in the summer Newfoundland where did the fog is so thick you can cut it with a knife and I know live in Vancouver an embrace the rain when it comes I don't even notice it . Learn to live and learn the ins-and-outs of monies and you'll be much happier you are way too frivolous about this this country I consider to be if not the best country on Earth pretty close to it and we do not have the reason that you have in the United States . Furthermore there are many communities in Ontario where you seem to live with your ethnic from Little Jamaica Cabbagetown . Therefore get your act together peace

Sir apki community app kb launch ho gi

I've met a lot of people from all over the world who come to Canada for a better life. Most are good genuine people, they work hard have children build a life for themselves and become useful citizens and contribute to the community they join. every once in a while I hear someone make claims like they deserve preparations because Canadians act racist towards them. Hearing this I have to ask how have they been wronged? Who was keeping them down being racist towards them. Today this poor hurt young thing just ignores the question, like it's beneath her, not worthy of her time.so it seems she's just a vain spoiled wilful child of average intelligence.I think your the one who's not worth the hype. Canada can survive without you, can you say the same?

If you already used to life around friends and families back home Canada is not for you. Quite frankly Canada is for natural born loners.\nFact, You will definitely feel more at home in the u.s than Canada mainly due higher immigrants population.\nIf you moved to Canada as a teenager or was born by immigrants parents then Canada is for you. You get used to the lifestyle, bitter cold, Old age home and so forth are considered normal. \nIf you moved to Canada as adult with your wives and kids and doing well Canada is for you.\nIf you’re young and single there are endless nightclubs to make friends, schools, community gathering, places of worship even online.\nThose that reached older age moved back only if they still have strong family ties else they stayed and enjoy there pension.\nIf you moved to Canada as adult found it boring and moved to u.s and find the high cost of healthcare attractive, the gun culture less dangerous, the mass shootings, more racism, police brutality and still loved it, there’s no need to move back to Canada.

Me am planning on moving to Canada.. checking out what people don't like is just few \nWeather , taxes , food I feel like if there's a community of Africans u can do the owambe once in a while to fill the gaps

Rather than move to Nigeria, I'll move to Uk , my Nigerian community there is big. Feels like home.

Hockey is so popular in Canada there is TV programs dedicated to covering hockey in Punjab for that particular community

You need taxes for your hospitals, rads, defence etc. The health care problem is not unoque to Canada. We also have it in the UK. The healthcare system is much much better than in the USA and better than in West Africa. Cost of living is high everywhere. You don't look homeless. Try living in the USA. Go back to college and get a better qualification and earn more. In the USA you are more likely to be shot than in Canada. Go back to University and get a good degree or try Nigeria or Ghana. In Africayou have communities e.g Indian community, Lebanese community Yoruba community, Ga community. Common girls, be real

Know the ropes and prioritize what works well for you. Yes The tax is high,and it's cold but everything will not be perfect. Also I find a lot of a Africans stay in their own community,you cannot experience a diverse place such as Canada like that.

After listening to all these people speak. I can tell you that family and community is number one. Human beings gravitate towards each other. So if they could bring that community with them to Canada they would be happy. All they want is security, peace and acceptance. No one is saying I want to be in Canada because of $$$$. It's the peaceful environment and ability to feel secure.

When I tell Africans not to go to Canada they never listen. Canada is a really cool country. There's no doubt about that but in winter the weather gets really cold, dull, grey and depressing. Instead of moving always to The UK, US or Canada, why not try the Caribbean and some central American countries. These countries are very colorful, lively and bright with climate similar to ours. There are lots of folks over there that look like us as well except that you may have to learn a little Spanish which shouldn't be a problem at all. \nI'm a Nigerian too.\nI also dreamt of moving to Canada 15 years ago. I was so crazy in love with the country at first but because I was aware of how depressing winters can be I had to switch my dream destination to the Caribbean. I choose Panama because of the large Afro Panamanian community over there. Secondly because Panama looks like a more developed version of My country, Nigeria with beautiful beaches and a nice tropical weather. It's one of those few Caribbean nations with a free world class universal healthcare system like most countries in Europe.

Refugees, please consider coming to The Battlefords, Saskatchewan. We have affordable housing and a labor shortage. If you go to University in Saskatchewan the government will cancel most of your student debts if you choose to stay and live in the province for up to 5 years. The province and many smaller communities, like mine, have rebates if you build your own house or start a business here. Lots of perks that other provinces do not offer.

I so much love this video❤️❤️❤️..... I was definitely smiling and laughing ???? all through.... Am ms Whizqueen favourite fan here ?❤️????........... I guess this community or province here is Toronto Ontario to be specific???\n\n\nCan't wait to get my visa oo??✈️??

Canada government and divisive politics destroying an already fragile sense of community

Come here USA and let see peoples reactions U want to impose sharia law go back to ur countries. Wish u come here California Muslim community is roughly %1.

Okay why not you girls go into a healthcare if that they need so many workers.\nYou talk about cost of living;\n1. Phone bills\n2. Car insurance\n3. High taxes\n4. Canada boring \n5. People leave because for fun because they have good money\n6. What does the communities do for you, when you do not speak your native language\n7. Aging is inevitable. So if you have achieved your dreams you will naturally go anywhere of your choice to relax. Is that a bad thing? New Yorkers move to Florida (cold swap)

Feel these two young ladies have not a in-depth knowledge about ??. And short sighted. ?? Among the best countries, safe, secure, free healthcare, free education and accessible higher education, and that makes or gives immigrants and their children to get good jobs and do well. As well as opportunities to run and own businesses. Boring? Where have you been? Just your own community? You haven't explored ??. Sorry to hear your bad experience but please don't bash ??. See the beauties and opportunities of ??. Don't forget all the rights and law that protects human rights unlike the places you are bragging about.

Vancouver has nice scenery but it's overpriced and there's no community
