One thing. Frenchies.

Just for your information. A simple logical search can give you abundant knowledge and probably enhance everyone's perspectives.\n\nIndia\n2022 Nominal GDP in Current U.S. Dollars: $3.39 trillion\n2022 PPP Adjusted GDP in Current International Dollars: $11.87 trillion\n2022 GDP Growth: 7%\n2022 Nominal GDP Per Capita in Current U.S. Dollars: $2,388\n\nCanada\n2022 Nominal GDP in Current U.S. Dollars: $2.14 trillion\n2022 PPP Adjusted GDP in Current International Dollars: $2.27 trillion\n2022 GDP Growth: 3.4%\n2022 Nominal GDP Per Capita in Current U.S. Dollars: $54,967\n\nIndia is a much richer country than Canada and is much stronger economically as well. Probably since it's far and since education is so scarce in the information age maybe it's difficult for people here to comprehend. The only reason India is lacking behind is because of it's abundant population and it was not blessed with self rule up until 1947 which kind of derailed it's progress by years thanks to European Colonization and discrimination. \nJust as an example for folks who are ignorant to see India as a third world or poor or poorly run country - \n* The way India handled Covid for 1+ billion people is something close to impossible for Canada with a meagre population of around 40 million. \n* You don't have to wait for months or weeks for normal checkups, MRIs, doctors and so on. \n* You don't have to pay $50+ per month for a meagre 10-30gb data instead it's less than $4 per month for 1-2gb/day data (yes per day)\n* The military budget of India is 66 billion dollars while Canada's is a meagre 26 Billion dollars.\n* India is capable of launching advanced missions in Space and has single handedly indigenously created aircrafts to land in moon and space exploration.\n* India has home grown automobile companies like Tata Motors (which owns Jaguar and Land Rover), Mahindra and many more while I don't see any homegrown automobile companies in Canada.\n* India has more than 170 billionaires while Canada has around 70.\n* India's richest people won't even bother to invest in Canada because it's not a viable market, but the economy in India is booming and will continue to do so.\n* Despite the population the country is managing in such a way that Canada can only dream off. Just because you had the privilege and the means to be developed does not give you the right to demean other nations. It's really nothing that you did, it's just pure luck, right place, right time, white superiority, destruction and so on which enables you to live such privileged lives and now you are crying when people are actually working hard to provide some competition.\n\nDon't you think regardless of race or ethnicity, every human being deserves the best life? \n\nBefore you judge a country do some research. \n\nYes, the people in general have a different thought process where in prominence is not given to space, way of living, probably you can put it up as standard of living and the quality of thought process. But that's always the case with generalization. I know it's hard not to when you see it, but being a better human is all about thinking beyond that. Yes people in India are general prone to having a shortcut process, at the same time, highly skilled people are abundantly present. In the information sector and other highly skilled areas, they are present earning loads of money which reverberates to more tax money for the government. \n\nI know that they have major issue with absorbing the host country culture and I believe that can probably or maybe alleviated by having some cultural programs so that they can fit into the society so that the Canadian culture is upheld. It's always difficult to see changes around you and your home being in your words being raided by foreign entities. Guess what? The world is filled with different ethnic groups. Hundreds of years ago all your native homes were part of the indigenous people here and they didn't even have time to complain or lament online when the Europeans butchered them and massacred their homelands, claiming the land and setting up as their own. Now you are in a position to call something your home and we all know what all your ancestors did regardless of how good you are right now. The least you can do is not comment such provocatively online against other ethnicities or is this atrocity still there in your blood. It's very simple. Try to think beyond frustration and be grateful for what you have. \n\nBy the way I can write more but I don' think it's worth my time but maybe positive things can happen if you put your mind into.

I honestly believe Pierre could change things

The only good things to come out of Canada ?? is the Canadian Muscle Cars like the Acadian Canso SD, Acadian SS, Beaumont SD, Acadian Beaumont SD, and the Meteor Montcalm S37.

Great video. Realistic, narrated as things are without sugar coating or toxicity. Kudos.

If things keep going on this direction the USA will have to build a wall across the border with Canada!

There has never been a place or country called Palestine. Notice she said inside Palestine? This is the same thing the Romans did to not acknowledge Israel’s right as a sovereign nation. Funny God sees it otherwise that’s why they are there

When people say mass immigration is a bad thing anywhere in the world, they are all basically saying the same thing. They much rather prefer to be around their own people that share their race, history and culture. That isn’t racism. It’s just nature and everybody needs to understand it to understand the situation. It is what it is.

I'm a Canadian citizen with permanent residence in the states. You're delusional of you think it's any better here. I'd rather be in Canada where I don't go into debt for breaking my leg, because the housing and other things the video is saying is just as bad here.\n\nAlso think it's weird that the video starts with immigrants are leaving Canada but then immediately blames them for the rising housing market? Which is it? Are they leaving or are they staying buying homes? It can't be both.

I think it’s just the normal thing, questions are asked in every port of entry, I came into Canada about a week ago and was asked exactly same questions in Toronto airport all you need is have all your documents handy and be bold in answering all the questions you are asked and be genuine. There is no need being afraid once you are sure of the purpose of your trip then you are good. I’ve been to several countries and it’s almost same questions at every port of entry. God help us.

I am not joking when I say Canada is more expensive than Switzerland.\n\nI was in Canada for a 1 Year Exchange. The cost of stuff is RIDICULOUS! The thing is: Switzerland is expensive yes- but Swiss salaries are also higher on average. In Canada tho stuff is just expensive. I was flabbergasted by the food prices and especially the price of mobile plans!!\nIt was cheaper for me to buy a “North America” mobile plan in Switzerland (Basically a mobile plan for USA and Canada) than buying one in Canada for only Canada ?

while i disagree with that man why are you people upset because you do it to everyone who has a different opinion yourselves. you all say vile things about Jews and people who support Israel and now when some hateful person does it back to you you guys are upset? wow just wow

The thing is we see this but the people who vote liberal see different videos so we'll never understand each other

I have so many thing to tell you what’s going on in Brampton. Pls keep eyes on your girls whom sending for better future

Smh… Some peeps gotta talk apples when I’m talking oranges…as their rebuttal doesn’t quite respond in proper context to my statement. So let me be clear: the Aboriginal People have absolutely every single right to be disgruntled and complain if any nation is to do so especially after having been swindled and bamboozled out of their land and space and way of life. This is why if any nation/ group is expected to raise up and fuss and complain it’s the Natives/Indigenous People. The circumstances are not even remotely near the same here with Canadians today versus what the Aboriginals went through pre-European Canada. We don’t even need to go there. Naturally, any one particular group that occupies a certain space and then has said space slowly taken over by another group/nation will be displeased to say the least and it is their right to complain. Truly no one nation or group can occupy any land or space forever as no one truly owns the land to begin with. Who’s disputing that?? So why even complain at all over something we don’t even truly own, even though we have somewhat of a right to do so?? The world is gradually becoming more of a melting pot of different races of people. And needless to state, Canada is a country of many nations and it would be very unbecoming of any minority immigrant to be here and be racist towards and complain about the other ethnicities/minorities here. Hence what triggered my comment in the first place. Immigrants wanna boldly come here and change things to suit them. This is Canada! And that’s not how things work here. Why come to my home and then complain about the occupants? Just go back where you came from. Period!

okay. you've got a white guy doing a bit on demographics in brampton. separates 'indian' from 'punjabi' and sikh' and then throws in 'hindu' and 'pakistani. maybe go look those terms up before you put them on the same histogram (ONE person can actually identify as a few of those things simultaneously - and one of those terms is a RELIGION whereas some of them are GEOGRAPHIC and others are CULTURES. \n\nfor your next clip are you going to talk about markham having ASIAN, CHINESE, KOREAN, PACIFIC ISLANDER, PINAY, CHristian, Catholic and Japenese etc and not being able to figure out the differences lol.

Bull sh!t, things are much worse in the USA.

The true shame of this whole situation is that this very eloquent and thoughtful Arab diplomat speaking this way and explaining things this way this should be the American position and all the state department personnel should be reflecting this position exactly it should not come from the Arab world this should be coming from the United States of America and forcing the Israeli government to stop their genocidal agenda an ethnic cleansing. I never thought in a million years that we would be living in a world where our own government would be condoning the genocide of anyone but then again when you look at our history I was very naive to think they wouldn't

if the Arab world wants to help stop the oil it's the whole reason Israel exists in the first place it's the only thing in the Americans are worried about that's the only interest they have there doesn't have to be bloodshed just stop the oil

Canada feels like its becoming like Great Britain, an absoulte nightmare to live and have any hope! I thought about coming to beautiful Canada as had fond memories back in 2004 but it seems like most things after 2008 crash most countries are becoming a nightmare to have a decent lifestyle! Im looking at Australia for a country that offers a decent wage and lifestyle! Only problem is on the other side of the Planet from my connections! Don't move to the UK as its becoming an absoulte nightmare to live and have a basic lifestyle especially in London!

hope this thing no dey reach people coming as PR

Man you can tell this video was made by someone who doesn't live here. We are less and less democratic every year less then a 1/3rd evin vote. Are overlords in Ottawa have lost tuch with the rest of the country. And things like civil war are just simmering under the serfis.

Insult go soon enter this thing o. If they don't want you to go there, they should stop you at the application point; not after paying for flight and all that.

That healthcare from private insurance can be cut out anytime and pre-authorized for every little things. Medicine and treatmant

It’s crazy the way people forget that Canada doesn’t end at the end of Quebec. I hate to break it to you, but there are still affordable places to live in this country, They’re just mostly not in the urban centres of Ontario, Quebec, BC or Alberta. If you actually choose to acknowledge the existence of the other six provinces, you can have a pretty good life in this country! with that being said, I also have a good friend who’s making $100k a year fresh out of university in downtown Calgary. Everyone saying salaries are too low, there are no opportunities in this country, I’m curious to know what opportunities we’ve actually lost? Just because they aren’t being afforded to you doesn’t mean they don’t exist, maybe this should spur some self-reflection. You do have to work hard to succeed after all! \n\nLife is hard, always has been. If you actually talk to your parents instead of trusting what others on the internet say, who also weren’t alive during that time, you might realize that things really aren’t that different now. Despite what the internet will tell you, a minimum wage job was not enough to afford a house and a car 40 years ago. Shockingly, a minimum wage job doesn’t pay enough to get you a house and a car now either! Crazy how that works

Yep. When my son was born, he had to stay in the NICU for a few months.\nThe nurses corresponding with some American nurses were telling me that if I were there, my bill would be in the hundreds of thousands.\nThe stay of my ex, the birth, my sons stay, the nurses time, equipment and things like diapers ect. It’s insane that people start their lives like that.\nHere in Canada, I paid nothing. 0.

I'm 74, Canadian, living on the government pension. But if you do things properly you can live quite comfortably I have no problems.

Because it's an invasion that's why we are seeing these things. It may not be a military invasion but it is an invasion of illegal aliens into our country.

From a FRENCHMAN\nWe all complain about immigrants coming but there are 2 things we forget: 1. As long as we Europeans keep putting people that we’ve our interests down there, those countries will be deteriorating and people will keep coming up here in Europe or even in the US for Central Americans! 2. Let’s say we kick the butt of our migrants back to where they are from… well… we can do that for sure… but who cleans our office, who does the tough jobs for us while not complaining about lower pays and tougher conditions? Who build our stupid buildings here in Europe or even in America?? Who???? And who clean our toilets? If you guys want to kick immigrants, feel free to do so, but beforehand, tell your sons and your daughters to take onto those immigrant jobs! Tell our European and American or even Canadian kids to do those lousy jobs! With the spoiled way we raised them, how many would be candidate??? All of our kids all want to be “big boss” and earn 80k or 130k per year!!! Let those 49k jobs be for legal brown, black and yellow immigrants and let those fruit picking and construction work be for barely legal immigrants… \nThis is why I am leaving Canada soon as I am fed up with this hypocrit and superficial culture that is obsessed with money and where u gotta work work work and get everything you saved to ou taxes!! Fed up with the lousy and inefficient Canadian healthcare and transportation system (Europe has a much better one for sure). Plus who wants to end up lonely smoking weed in this lonely and depressed country anyway???

The same thing happened 300 years ago when Europeans came to America (both north and south America).

You do realise Europeans did the same thing to Canada.. right? But they actually killed most of the natives.

? I bet Indians said the same thing when British Invaded India... now y'all crying about Indians being in Canada..?

When I visited Toronto to see a Blue Jays game we stayed for a week in downtown. It was shocking to see so many homeless people with large set ups in the open. Prices for things were crazy high. It was very sad to see

U can't blame immigrants for following opportunity or wanting better lives for their kids. But u can blame the universities for putting profits ahead of canadian students. U can blame municipal and provincial govts for not building affordable housing in 30 years while selling out land to greedy developers. U can blame the pandemic. U can blame big grocery chains for gauging customers. None of these things have anything to do with trudeau OR immigrants. U fools sayin F trudeau dont even understand how things work.

The weird thing is, Canadians keep voting for the same politicians who continue to wreck the country.

I just came into Canada on Wednesday and I don’t think they were doing things as harsh as checking phones. But yes they are more intense than before ooo. It’s double checking for everyone.

As a immigrant who recently got Canadian citizenship, I would like to clear few things here. I noticed that the host of the show has some wrong perception in his mind for international students. I agree that the basic jobs should be allocated to the young population or elderly population and international student should sustain themselves, but on the other hand why don't' the colleges charge the same fees that they charge to domestic applicants ?...the international students pays 5X to 10X the fees that the local student pays for the same courses. Also, when the student applies for visa they already pay 20000K to a Canadian bank for the future monthly payments that they will get so sustaining is not a problem. most of these students work so that they can contribute to the 5X fees that they have to pay. Also, when it comes to skill, the students skills are assessed by the universities and colleges and only after that they come to Canada. If you see an immigrant working in Tim Hortons or Food basics, don't worry he will be out of there in 2 years to a high paying skillful job that local population won't do. Now, when I say all this the immigration problem is real, but it is not because of the student who comes here, pays higher fees and than work in Canada, pay higher taxes and contribute to GDP and economy. your problem is with refugees and immigrants who are brought in mass immigration, who does not have skills. Because this is the population which you brought with to match the labor shortage but can not work so you provide them subsidies, assistance etc. and dig a hole in government funds...…now for the host he seems to have an agenda against Indian immigrants in particularly. I don't mind that though we are used to it. I don't hate him but can he make a video for other countries as well ? how Many Chinese students who didn't even past the language test come to Canada to study and drives expensive cars even without working a single day ? how you bring a immigrant under refugees status from any country to match labor shortage, but who also has 5-7 kids which means you get 1 guy benefiting Canada with 5-7 person who will take benefit from Canada?.....

The most hated thing about me is an Israeli accent ???

No no... Texas wants to be its own thing.. so not america.. Texas. They're entering Texas.. not the same thing.

One thing i can say for sure is these people who abuses the person with less reputed jobs are the one who can never get into a fight with people of their level.

The same thing happened with tony Blair in UK. Same party, same promises, same cheering on election.

12:39 it's .7% - not 7%. Do you think things will meaningfully improve once Justin's gone? The opposition leader talks a good game, but such is the way of a politician. Also, any chance you could do a similar video on Ireland?

See that the thing with Canada You Do Not Need to be Strategic to live in Canada. Everywhere in Canada small town, big Cities (pick any) is safer, LGBTQ+ are the same as straight, treated equally, no guns, we are not racist, abortion is legal everywhere.... Name it, everything is better in Canada. The true meaning of freedom is Canada.

You have Hollywood, Amusement Park and Disney World??? So no I'm confirming that it's not a thing. We also have amazing Amusement Park. We don't need superficial Hollywood and Disney World is a dream land for kids that costs thousands. No we are good without those. \nI did live in the US for 4 years and I was miserable. It was not my choice to go, I followed my husband.

So thankful to the United States for giving me the opportunity to leave Canada and pursue a better life here. I moved in my mid-20s and couldn't be happier with my decision. It always surprises me how few young Canadians consider this but just put up with their worsening living conditions in Canada. I hope a new government can come in a turn things around for my friends and family still living there.

House prices are out of control in Canada. Same thing is happening in the US, UK...

Canada is in such a severe supply shortage and such a critical crisis, but things are starting to change. Progress is happening my fellow Canadians, but we need to keep fighting. The reality is, it’s a number of very serious problems all happening at once

Great overview. One thing that this video hasn’t touched on is the absurd cost of shipping in Canada. Huge barrier and significant impact on product price.

The way they so confidently say things that are not true and have no evidence ??

Internet warriors, do your thing and expose this clown
