People have no idea how big the problem is: Nigeria alone has a population in excess of 230 million (and probably a lot higher, since a census has not been done recently). Add the next two or three African countries, and Canada can be turned into a giant, dystopian megacity within a couple of decades.

Bringing in millions of unskilled immigrants who will mainly live on welfare is not a solution.

If Canadians are unhappy about immigration, that literally means it’s an indisputable scientific fact that there are immense issues with our system. The dark and disgusting side of this that doesn’t get talked about is how many newcomers leave shortly after spending everything they have to boost our GDP before they realize they’ll never get the opportunity or life they were promised here. I don’t think it’s just Canadians that see immense issues with our immigration system.\n\nImmigration also implies diversity. Not just flooding the country with millions of people from one section of the world.\n\nWe are indeed in a catch 22 though, because with the lack of replacement birth rate we’ve had, we can’t simply haunt immigration. But the asinine quota needs to go down. This all boils down to basic math and basic economics. There are no excuses for how badly this has been botched.

A million bluddy immigrants? Nutz. Without industry how can you cannucks support that many?

What’s canadas population now like 20 million?

This is proof Trudeau has no idea what hes doing, he thinks things just work themself out! Hes a trust fund rich kid who never had to work or want for anything! His daddy gives him millions at a time

This is a policy that Justin Trudeaus father started in the 70s, with the club of Rome. They have been steadily working on preventing Canadians from getting multi-bedroom houses, you are now seeing this come to fruition. The additional 9 million immigrants are the final nail in the coffin. The government will be saying that you should be renting your rooms out in your houses next.

It is interesting that a lot of people complain of mass migration!\nVery surprising IRAN is under invasion by millions of Afghan invaders who are not culturally compatible and using a lot of its resources. This has resulted in emigration of natives from Iran to other countries.

But wait a minute !!! 1 million immigrants in a country as big as China and you guys are complaining. The whole population of Canada fits in 1 or 2cbig tier 1 cities in China , so their cities hv to deal with 1 million migration on a regular basis and accomodate for those changes. Wht is it do hard for Canada to handle 1 million immigrants ? That should be taken into consideration as a shortage of labor is alwaysban issue facing Canada at some point.

Bringing in millions of immigrants when the local population already can’t afford rent or to buy a home is the primary reason and no one on the left want to accept that.

Multi-million corporations lobbying politicians for access to dirt cheap labour, and thereby causing the lowering of living standards across the board.

Trudeau made it worse by bringing in millions of people to gain political power \nWell,although we’re all immigrants the government should think of the housing crisis before bringing in more immigrants

Country of 40 Million can't build enough houses for their own population. Government brings in 1 Million more and subsidizes their housing costs. ?Can't figure out why people would be against that.

you come canada with student visa, you get open work permit. easy 4-5 million came over two years. Canadian cannot fidn a job anymore. thanks to government.

India has 1.5 billion people and is heading for 1.7 billion they could emigrate 500 million and still be over crowded. USA has a cap for visas from India and people fight against it. Nothing against people from India but if you flood a country with one culture it has major impacts. How many people should Canada have 30 million , 50 million , 100 million , it is a question that needs an answer.

It’s crazy how most people think that Canada is importing an army of workers !!\nOnly a small percent of the million that come in every year have work visas (in the UK it is 15% and Canada is similar). The large majority are students from developing countries who are looking to immigrate to the first world but don’t have a job, education or any skills. Then it is family reunification and refugees. We are taking in very few highly skilled workers.

And now this YouTuber is teaching millions how to enter America through Canada ???

It's not like this needed to be investigated. Guy said it early: an influx of more than 1 million people last year alone People notice this. Worse, a lot of these people don't seem to be upwardly mobile. It's importing a desperate underclass who are dragging living standards down. People in a 1st world country don't want to live 4 to a bedroom to try and compete with the new arrivals.

1 million people a year? Well, here the UK is tiny compared to Canada and WE are bringing in nearly 1mil a year, too.

We in iran have 20 millions refugees taking advantage of our generasity and naivity in decades!

You have to separate the cause from the act. The cause is the government policy. So why is the government promoting this policy? In the Soviet Union Josef Stalin made it his policy to move populations around so that there were no national majorities anywhere. In this way he was able to suppress around 130 million for decades. And when the Soviet Union finally did collapse, it was in the areas with a national majority (Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Azerbaidjan, Armenia, Georgia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kirgystan, Turkmenistan. It was no coincidence.\n\nCanada today is a dictatorship. There is no freedom of speech, no freedom of thought. Just look at what happened to the truck drivers during covid-19. Or look what is now happening to Jordan Peterson now. What is going on is unconstitutional, and it is the government who is behind it. The purpose of the migration is to change Canada into a minority state just as it happened in large parts of the Soviet Union. This is the only way that the dictatorship can stay in power - and it knows it.

All Indians. We have 1 million international students from India that they came to Canada last year, the only intention is to cros the border to USA

Kind of difficult to understand how why we brought in a million people without looking at the stress it puts on our infrastructures esp housing…

the exact same BS is happening in Australia right now, we accepted OVER 1 million foreigners, way more than Canada and we have all those issues plus more....

1.5 million immigrants per year coming into Canada.........completely unbalanced. There is No defence of this and no logic. It's burdening the entire country....and the world. We should stop and replicate Poland.

I don't understand why people do not put the blame where it belongs - on Trudeau. He is the one that has created this entire crisis by purposely continuing to allow huge numbers of immigrants, half a million to million a year!! People do not see that Trudeau is doing this on purpose to undermine our Canadian culture and country. He wants to destabilize the middle class because he knows that's where the power lies in terms of informed voting. He needs to be removed AS.A.P. before Canada is destroyed completely.

Legal immigration is great but slowly and the cream of the crop who want to become citizens will BUILD a Better society But Leftist Democrats want immigration for power not the people so they want millions to rush the border

This is the least surprising thing I've ever seen. Importing millions from the third world with zero plan or thought for the existing citizens.

Would you look at that... Millions of people are trying to flee communism... But USA and Canada are currently implementing it...

I don't understand why common sense people in, America don't understand that we don't have the housing for, Americans, much less, millions of immigrants as well as other resources all people will need.

Humans have been migrating across the world for millions of years, period.

Add AI to this mix\nIf AI displaces 20–80% of jobs over the next 3 - 20 years, and we keep bringing in tens of millions of unskilled immigrants, they are going to be more Fůkt, than if they stayed in their 3rd world country where AI would probably have less impact for longer

The more we bring in, the higher the deficit every year. We’ve brought in millions of immigrants and have the highest spending in Canadian history. Coincidence ? I think not.

Because we brought in 4 million people in 4 years and hour housing/economy can't keep up with that.

Why does Europe have to taken in millions of these people?

When u reg everything every company to go green n cut off ur own natural resources on top of bringing millions of ppl in prices rice wages drop its the first thing u learn on day one of economics

Let's see...inflation, rising unemployment, a house costs $1 million+, rent is $2K, our infrastructure and healthcare system are overwhelmed...it's not rocket science

Daft old Britain has invited millions of really nasty people from all over the worst parts of the world to come in and enjoy democracy, so it would seem. The peope are expected to shut up and put up with it, even as more boatloads of the freeloaders land on the shores of the UK, while the socialist knight grins with pleasure.

Canada at 100 million is bat shit insane.

I noticed in Vancouver area that all affordable rental places were demolished and replaced with high rises, especially in metrotown. These high rises has shoe boxes units that sells for 1 million and more. Don’t you guys think this housing crises that Vancouver has is made deliberately and does not have much to do with immigration. Why these eye sore high rises are not built away from our affordable housing areas. Lot of empty land in Surrey and Langley. Please leave affordable condos alone.

They could still take people in who are in immediate danger. I mean, sure he's gotta point, but looking at another similar situation in Ukraine where people HAD to leave like elderly people, women and children who weren't in a position to fight the invading Russians, Western nations took in millions of refugees. I think Saudi Arabia could do more than just being spectators, but I guess they can't hear the plight of Palestinians due to the noise of their luxury cars ?.

Ya , and the government wants homeowners to rent out there basements to help lesson the housing crisis . Not in a million years would I rent my basement out now

Kamalla loves them\n 2 million more!!

NEW YORK CITY CAN NEVER HAVE TOO MANY IMMIGRANTS. NEW YORK NEEDS AN ADDITIONAL 10 MILLION IMMIGRANTS. THE MAYOR SAYS NEW YORK CITY IS OPEN, COME\n ON IN!!!!!!!\n\nOR MAYBE YOU CAN VOTE FOR REPUBLICANS

Pakistan kicks out millions of afghans and no one cares but once Europe does it it makes the news

Canada loves immigrants, but not a million at a time, thank you very much.

The 2nd biggest country in world with 40 million people complaining they are getting too many ppl??? \n\nNo! You guys are being eaten by the rich and they use immigrants as human shields and as an excuse to keep exploiting everyone while their property value keeps growing every year and they pay less in wages.\n\nYou can blame immigrants all you want but the problem won’t be solved until you guys stop corporations from governing and stop trickle down economic policies that only benefit the top 1%

“We saved penny by penny… for our retirement… Now, we only have 50 million!” ?

Is there mention of the 1.5 million entering / year for 10 years. How many become citizens? \nLess than 2500.\n.1%\nHow many go directly to the big city because they enter with 0 dollars?\nHow many students drop out first week to get a 60% govt subsidized job courtesy of giant corporations?\nWhen's the other 90% of this video?

I've never been conservative or anti-immigration, but the situation is getting out of control. Canada has always been a country of immigrants, but in my country, Poland, that hasn't traditionally been the case. In recent years, the demographic landscape has changed significantly, and it's not just about our Ukrainian neighbors—over a million have arrived since the war. We're also seeing an influx of people from developing countries, many of whom come under false pretenses, enroll in private universities, or attempt to cross our borders illegally to reach Germany. Right now, we're at a loss, and the most frustrating part is that while we need skilled immigrants, we're instead getting unskilled individuals who don't even make an effort to learn the language. This isn't sustainable.
