I'm 100 percent Mexican but no sorry can't let anymore people into this country the US has way to many problems of itself

Canada should just unite with USA. Canada honestly felt like USA when I visited, just colder weather and nicer people. I think USA will have absolutely no problem welcoming Canada to their states unlike Mexico lol

the problem is justin but people are just blind

Too many people, too many problems. Pretty soon the problem will be at YOUR home. In time..

they're invading the country why don't we have open fire on these people invading the US by the hundreds and thousands at a time not seeking Asylum but illegally crossing the border and if anybody has a problem with open fire on these people would you would you welcome them into your house if hundreds of them just pushed through your door not even asking not even knowing the laws or rules to just run through all your things no in America We Stand our ground

It would be Better if the Drug Industry was Closed, which makes Society, illegally unequal, helpless and more prone to Drug Usage. The Global Capitalist System is Lopsided, and Inside out. Just to keep the Few extremely Wealthy, they Sacrifice Human Rights to a dignified, decent Life. It's not just Canada, this Misery is Worldwide all because of a Few People's Limitless Greed. What you Describe is like just brushing the Dirt under the Carpet, not a real Solution to the Problem. Conditions will Only Get Worse if the Root Cause is not Taken Care Of.

Fuck that don’t let them in I’m sorry but America has enough problems already we can’t always be a safe haven to refugees sooner or later people gotta learn to defend themselves against their own governments.

I think this video is good overall, but downplays the potential severity of our housing crisis. It's not just a problem for renters. Rapid expansion in finance and real estate are only a good thing if they are backed up by real growth, otherwise it's just a bubble that puts the entire national economy at risk. In Canada, it's got many characteristics of a bubble that will crash during an interest rate rise or economic crisis.\n\nAlso income inequality is not the whole story. Wealth inequality has been rising rapidly in Canada and is made worse by rapidly rising rents and inflation. Owning a home outright or with a smaller mortgage means spending less of your income on housing in Canada's current system, so even at the same income level homeowners are dramatically better off than renters and renters have noticed. It's one thing to point at some graphs of the Gini index and say inequality isn't that bad, but that's not good enough when regular people see homeowners buying fancy cars and taking lavish vacations while renters scrape by.\n\nFurthermore, you pretty much ignored the demographic concerns in Canada. We have an aging population, which means we either need high immigration that worsens the housing crisis or higher taxes to pay for growing healthcare and pension costs. Neither option is good and both paths lead to increases political and economic instability. Demographics is one of the main reasons the OECD has a poor outlook on growth in the long term.

A Country is only as good as its citizens .. the citizens in Canada are so dumb they vote for Liberal Governments that intentionally destroy the economy with mass corruption and out of control spending all while raising taxes higher and higher ! Under Trudeau Canada has 1.3 trillion in debt since 2015 . Under a Conservative government in 2014 we had a 600 billion surplus. The problem with Canada is its control of State run media that lies to the people who are ignorant, the result is an uninformed ignorant voter that continues to vote for the worst possible Polititains.

I'm from India ?? but I care for usa too many migration will change country economy and will start internals conflict imagine the people's came from outside taking your lands making more money than you and than starting problems more

The problem can be summed up easily: Can the liberal party spend money on it? They will. Will it cause debt? Yes. Will they fix it? No. Will the conservatives be forced to fix it? Yes. Will people hate the conservatives for taxing them to fix the debt? Yes. Will liberals get voted back in when people are tired of being broke despite being broke under Liberals? Yes. Can the liberal party spend money on it? They will. repeat until you're happy with Justin.

America is already on its brink, many don’t realize it but these next 3/4 presidents we have, policies, etc. Along side what people of faith allow to go on, Along side music agendas, other political agendas that coexist, More of a possibility our Cold War with China gets physical by way of Taiwan at any moment, Korea…, Lack of both fundamental and natural Resources (used irresponsibly), Division due to government neglect to correct past decisions/often tends to cover up/erase/rewrite/censor “the victor gets to rewrites history” type shit, American dollar is starting not to mean shit in more places outside the States/territories (since we took it off the gold standard), let’s see there’s people still recovering from the housing market/Wall Street crash, recession, Homelessness in not just vets, youth (children) as well, Lack of Men’s Rights Across the board which is a bigger time Bomb; than what people think, Huge population decline due to modern Feminist Ideology and its affects on boys who were born and grew up in its prime (90s-early 2000s) if you go back through movies tv shows music you’ll see and hear comments, things, innuendos, references to things that foreshadowed what is happening now: to name a few contributors: Beyoncé, Oprah, Vivica Fox, Welfare, CIA, FBI, make up/fashion industry, etc. A new generation of confused, dense, savants that couldn’t tell you a woman from a beef stick… my bad my bad tells you that you can be woman even with a beef stick, Violations of constitutional right regularly by the ?who forget they work for, “The People” the people who pay their bills and put food on their tables. The government first normalizing unnatural sexuality(if you can’t reproduce “be fruitful and multiply”, I.e. man x women) you don’t see it working in nature seahorses somewhat excluded: my meaning of unnatural sexuality; Teaching it in schools some places too authoritarian rights away from parents, schools/music/media/tech raise kids nowadays not parents some places. Trying to normalize pedophilia in government a few bills her in Cali, a few movies on certain platforms, certain inappropriate clothing types for minors from a company made for adult women by a old man, Edw/Bel/Jac series yes 100+ year old going after a 16-17 year old, and an adult male “imprinting” on a baby, he later got in relationship with (not sus yeah mmm okay). Yeah we don’t need anymore problems in this country. Fight your own battles leave us out of it please.

The problem is Trudeau and Freeland. Wasting our money and ignoring the real people of Canada. Be gone Trudeau you woke A Hole

Politics is Canadas biggest problem. The idiots in ontario keep electing incompetent people to run the country. If the western provinces (Saskatchewan, Alberta, BC) seperated from Canada and became our own country we would be one of the best and wealthiest countries. And what would be left of Canada would collapse in a matter of months. There would be a civil war but western Canada would easily win.

There's a mental problem in both, US and Latin America. \nIn the US you don't have poor people, but rich people fallen from grace.\nIn LatAm, from Mexico to Chile and Argentina, when people fail in all their projects and have no other way out in their countries, they choose to embark on their journey to our new El Dorado: \nThe United States of America.

I'd much prefer you talk about solutions more than the causing problems. Not enough people do that

As a Canadian that works closely with the government, the other issues that the tax rate in Canada is very high. Even you get a good paying job or a profitable business, a significant portion of your paycheck/profits goes to the government. There is also a lot of bureaucratic and legislative hurdles to overcome and too little incentives when trying to start or develop a business. For example, to build a high density residential building, it takes around 1 - 2 years of planning and studies, then another year to get all the permits and government paperwork, then 2 years of construction. It takes around 5 years to build a new residential building. Canada's housing affordability problem is not just simply cause by people willing to buy property, it is also cause by a significant shortage of housing supply due to all these regulations and hurdles. If you can't find affordable housing and your income is also heavily tax, a lot Canadians will go south to the US where things are a lot more affordable.

Shut all the borders, no one coming in for next hundred years, and now after 100 years there will be the same amount of homeless people, how do you dream otherwise to keep your house value up ? ? this is the problem of the system, and homeless people are just tools to keep things going.

As a lifelong Canadian, agree 100% with you, this place went nuts last 3 years and has many other problems as well. Canada is trading on it;s name which is long since peaked and Canada doesn;t seem to figure that people have options and will go where they're treated best.

The problem with Canada’s socialist ways,is they have run out of other peoples money

big problem with the housing is also trudeau taking in so many immigrants and refugees before having enough available housing for everybody. I think they were taking in 200k people a year. while we need atleast 1million new houses within the next 10 years in order to supply enough to the population. There was also an issue with forieign purchases where people from other countries were buying houses in canada and nobody living in them. Trudeaus votes comes from majority indian people and arabic since thats a lot of the population in canada, and to win those votes and get more hes friendly with them accepting a lot of immigrants from those countries, its not a bad thing since a lot are very well educated and their peaceful people for the most part, but the problem is there isn't enough housing. Even renting has become competitive , owning is near impossible without help. Trudeau really messed up the country, houses are riduclously expensive and they often go into bidding wars if in a good area, banks interest rates keep going up now, loans are harder to take out, sadly we need to limit the amount of immigrants that come into the country until the right number of houses are built in the country, if anything new and major cities need ot be build in other locations with jobs in order to get more people spread out around the provinces. Once there is enough houses and jobs i believe the doors should be open to whomever wishes to come (obviously with a background check) but until then there should be a limit so the houses stop going up.

We have plenty of room to build new cities. What’s the problem? The problem is racism. Hand full of people playing god. Welcome to America.

Some people keep talking about the good old days and looking in past with rosy glasses. Stop living in the past and feeling like a victim. If you feel like everything is broken and it’s all going down hill then start doing something about. \n\nWorst thing you can do is talk about a problem and not go and fix it.

When in Rome be Roman... I am sure he could have taken it off, no harm done...he did it only to piss people off. People pointing out US's reputation of Mass Shooting in school... that's senseless, it's not like the authorities allow guns in establishments... It's these religious kinds that are a problem. Police are right...

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).

Our country has its own problems. We have too many U.S. citizens who need help. Our educational, welfare, and medical systems have enough problems trying to provide services needed to people in our country.

All these white folks talking about the homeless situation in America talking about how this needs to be stopped and we need to fix our problem first like no half the people on the streets of america are crackheads or people that want to be there anytime i see a mexican in the streets he either selling something or working for his own meanwhile the white fellow is always begging but were taking there jobs right. Racistttt

Dude, just separate the families on one side, the single people on another side have them make a single file line instead of pushing through the military and being disrespectful to the same people who can help them. That is way too many people to handle at once y’all should’ve just stayed in your country and had the military go into your country instead of you people trying to come into the country and causing this chaos, how do you expect the US to help you if we don’t have proper planning with the expectation of so much immigration. I sympathize with y’all that your own governments don’t help you but clearly the people that are in power suck at doing their job, so hopefully y’all can take control of the goddamn situation, Texas is a big ass state that has enough land to have immigration. Go in there. The problem is how people are going into the state like you can defy authority in this case nah Bruh.

This cartoon fantasy that every single person has the exact same amount of skills to offer and has the same value and rights is destroying places all over the United States and has been and will continue to hurt Canada. You want people to have equal rights until you literally can’t ride your bike to work because of the amount of people on drugs and homeless on the street/sidewalk is to large to even cross by. The drug problem in the United States and in Canada is off the chain out of control and these people that support rainbows and Drake are going to continue to have poor quality of life in their home they have been living and working in. Which is what is really unfair IMO…

I came to Canada 2months back with a job with an above average salary but already figured I can't stay here for too long as it's not a place to settle down unless you are a factory/construction labour. It's a beautiful beautiful country with so many amazing people. But people who are running this country are not passionate or caring about Canada rather to their capitalist masters. For every problem I hear that it's not clear whose responsibility it is, fed, state or city or district etc. If you love Canada why would it be so difficult to figure that out as it is not a country created 2 years back. And housing prices can't be fixed till a decade at least, as you can't expect to devalue the assets by half suddenly, so you have to wait till the inflation normalizes it.

Very true. The problem that Canada has is there is getting to be a large portion of people that have taken our wealth for granted. This generation has forgotten how wealth is created, so much so that when any projects are proposed there is automatic opposition to them. And the opposition is given so much credibility that many projects never see the light of day. Canadians are the kings of missed opportunities.

The War on Drugs has been and continues to be the main cause of all this turmoil. Overflowing prisons, vulnerable people fleeing their countries for safety from a problem that America and it's constant craving for illicit drugs has created. And you want to blame them? Take a good look in the mirror America and you'll see the problem staring back at you!

But keep in mind that it's the neanderthals that are the biggest and worst drug addicts, criminals, and domestic threat to this country according to the FBI. So while all of you point fingers, just remember your people are are the biggest and worst problem for this country.

The problem with Canada is the government and the people who support them.

justin trubroken is very corrupt! He closed bank accounts of Canadians, took people off wait lists for operations if you didn’t do that medical thing. Nobody trusts him any more. He took away the provences right to control natural resources. He has ethics problems constantly! Trudoe foundation accepted a donation from communist China,$81K holiday given to him by a contributor to the foundation. Hey justin,do you have access to this fund? Every scandal he appoints a family member as to oversee any wrongdoing. This guy is corrupt!!

Only problem with Canada's economy is the child running the country, He acts like a child with DaDDYS credit card he over spends irresponsibly then tosses the debt onto the people, He is a nightmare.

Biggest problem with Canada is lack of job opportunities or lack of intent to develop opportunities for technically skilled population. I have seen people with PhD doing general labour or security job. Out of 20 students in my MSc engineering class, only 3 were able to secure job related to their study. I still have to witness one political party, which has industrial growth or bringing in more job opportunities to Canada as part of their agenda.

Oh mate, there is no place like home. Unfortunately, many of us just keep on searching. People are the problem. If you come across the wrong people you are unlikely to like the place. Unfortunately they are everywhere. You just have to put up with a shit situation.

So Mexicans were not the problem because we work hard and take shifty jobs to get ahead .. now u have Venezuelan and Nicaraguan people who want handouts and free money guess not all Latin people the same ??? ever wonder why Mexico the richest Latin country cuz they got workers other Latin countries like Latin Americans mostly lazy and entitled

This is all the united states fault. You go into a country and destabilize it and cause a civil war to weaken them to steal their resources then refuse to take in the innocent victims of the mayhem you caused... then want to spin it saying we have a problem at our southern border... people are waking up to the united States bullshit

Their country is messed up for a reason, and they are looking to bring all their problems here. Stay out of America, we already got enough problems with our own people.

Disgusting send them back. It's just not acceptable what the hell they think they can come whatever they want. Forcing entry? We have on problems I with vets are homeless our children need food our old people needs to be protected we don't want them no I don't care we don't want them.

Please, please, please don’t let them through. It’s not about race and racism. It’s about our country facing the saturation of homelessness, because of the saturation of drugs, lack of self respect, and respect for human life, plus insatiable greed. WE THE PEOPLE do not want their problems too.\n\nWe have to work on our country and its people first before we look elsewhere and before we can help others, we must help ourselves.

You know what is a bunch of crap,is you tube has no current news about the border.They would lead you to believe that there isn't a problem right now(april,2023) Get your head out of you ass and quit withholding news.Must feel good to turn your back on the people that made you what you are today.This will probably never see the light of day and my account closed,but I figured as much.Closing my account won't hurt me,but if I copy and paste this enough times elsewhere it will get the message out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's unconscionable that we've invited people to come to Canada without actually following through on the promise we made to them in the first place. Was it all just sloganeering designed to appeal to liberal progressive NIMBYers? Was there ever any intent on actually doing something for these poor people beyond a sound bite or photo op? \n\nThe solution to migration because of war, terror, famine and so on is not by opening up the borders and allowing everyone in, the solution to mass migrations (over 100 million worldwide) is to tackle the conditions that make such migrations necessary. Almost without exception, each one of these migrant/refugee situations are the result of political problems that have to be tackled in those countries where the conditions exist. There are over 100 million people fleeing conditions that make life unbearable, even if we wanted to, how are we to take them all into North America? How does anyone propose we do that, and even if we could manage it somehow, another 100 million would show up on our doorstep next year...or next week...it's simply not possible or reasonable to expect us to be overwhelmed by wave after wave of the poor unfortunate. The solutions to war and famine abroad can't be found here and we need to make it plain that people who live in such conditions must first rise up to help themselves. We can and should help, politically, through foreign aid and individual donations (North Americans are among the most generous donators after all), and even militarily where feasible or possible. The UN and other coalitions of nations, must each take up the burdens before people smugglers take it up for them. We have our own problems to deal with here and I'm not willing to vote for promises made that were never meant to be kept.

We have more than enough rich and wealthy powerful people to fix this problem they just taken too many vacations…so sad pray for all these people to be safe and treated right ❤???

Some of your points are great - some are regional - housing issues are definitely a problem in some cities - Toronto and Vancouver are ridiculous- Calgary at the moment has tight inventory- landlord issues really depend on where you live. Taxes are due April 30th not the 1st. It can be difficult to get hired in your trained profession as an immigrant for the reasons you’ve shared. Our company consists of about 80 percent new immigrants, but we need people with Canadian work experience on their resume. It is costly training - and firing is something we DON’T want to do. So we need good references to hopefully avoid that issue. You were very fortunate to get a Dr so quickly. Again the specialist referral issue truly is more about your Dr than the system. A lousy Dr won’t refer patients because they don’t have the contacts. It’s more complicated than you’ve shared. I have had no problems with referrals because I’ve had good Drs. New Drs will have a harder time and unfortunately those are the ones taking new patients- hopefully those issues change as they get established.

Stop the exodus...we don't need this people to fill up food stamps...we have our own problems already.\n\nSend them back!!!

does anybody remember the CIA or congressman who allowed cartels to control Central and South America well now they're controlling better and killing better people to want to live that way you made them live that way I feel nothing for Americans but disgust and contempt you can create a problem but be damned if you solve it

Poor people they are desperate to leave their own countries. Poor children. I don’t look at this as aMeRIca gOt OUr oWn pRoBlems … These people are DYING to come here. Please Lord help us find a way to help them
