It’s over don’t come here the insane people that told yous to come are being removed go back home and make your country better fight or live on your knees the days of coming here are over

We have the natural resources to create energy. Yet Trudeau put a stop to anything that could earn Canada money. With the regulations in place we could produce energy a lot more greener than other countries. Wouldn’t it be better if we have our own oil that is produce cleanly than to rely on other country that don’t care about environmental issues? It’s so simple yet the people have been brainwashed by this government. I live in Quebec and we have so much potential energy wise and we do nothing. Frustrating.

Fight that hard to make your country better!!

Dear Fellow Americans and the United States of America,\n\nI am a Kurd who had to flee the imminent threat of death and sought refuge in your great country through the Mexican border. The American police officers treated me with dignity, as I never experienced in my homeland. The brutality that we Kurds endured under the Republic of Turkey forced us to escape in search of a better life.\n\nI implore you to recognize our plight, and I promise I will live every moment of my life with immense gratitude and respect for the United States of America. To me, this country symbolizes a beacon of hope and divine intervention on Earth.\n\nWords are not enough to express my heartfelt appreciation. May God bless the United States of America and its kind-hearted citizens.\n\nWith sincerity and love,\nA grateful Kurdish refugee???

This is what machine were guns invented for . Use them! This is a invasion plain and simple . \n Who in their right mind thinks that people that in their very first act violate a countries law . Will be good citizens.\n Why are these people not fighting to make their home country a better place. This says a great deal about their content of their character.

I wanna live in America for a ‘better life’ but I’m scared of the country. Like legitimately I question if going there to pursue my dreams is worth the risk of: natural disasters, shootings and terrorist attacks to name a few. Idk where I’d live but I am not living in anywhere with a high crime rate bc I’m not looking to get mugged or shot ?

One of the things that I don't get is why Canadian businesses hardly made any effort to explore other markets other than the Canadian & US market. Canada is located in the middle between Asia & Europe and they also are located pretty close to Latin American countries. Yet very few Canadian companies are willing to expand beyond the US market. I feel like Canadian companies are too complacent and like the video said risk averse. Having said that, I don't think being risk averse is such a bad thing. At least the local banks can withstand crises better compared to a high risk business environment like the US. There are always pros and cons in every environment to me.

it's funny I moved to Canada a little over a year ago and I want to move back to Australia for some of the reasons you want to leave Australia and more. Housing affordability here is a pipe dream unless you like living near mountains and want a laid back life like the life in Perth, in Calgary. But Calgary's job market is not great and that pretty much extends to every province except Ontario and BC. Living cost in Canada is very high... compared to what I experienced in AU, this is more expensive than living in Sydney. (I live in Toronto but this extends to Vancouver as well.) The healthcare system is weak, inefficient and inconvenient. Bureaucracy is again very slow, inconvenient and in some cases so backwards. Banking is not great, super inconvenient, not people-centric, inefficient and very much backward imo.. work-life balance or quality of life is way better in AU. Infrastructure development is slow and not great at all for a world-class country and personally, I expected better from Toronto.. (I do understand why it is the way it is right now, some justified reasons but some not so much) Things I do give props to CA... Diversity and inclusiveness is not just marketing slogan like in AU.. I don't feel like an outsider here... Its incredible. Job market is here much better than in AU. If you're moving from a country like AU, you will feel how capitalism here is made to make more money out of you every step of the way. But also, you will see how you can use that system to make alot of money. I think Canada is a great place to live if you're an entrepreneur or business person and making money is a primary requirement. But if you're someone who loves quality of life and work-life balance and want to probably own a good house, right now CA is not there. Also this doesn't mean CA isn't great, its fantastic... but compared to AU, canada comes short in many fronts. Also I love the weather here even if we have a pretty long winter.

Canada is basically another state of US at this point. Canada has independent domestic policies just like any US state but foregin policis are Washington lead. Canada has great educational instuation just like many other US state but ultimately, the graduates leave for better states in the US to get better pay. Almost all export of Canada is to US and almost all import are from same US suppliers from Asia. Some will say Canada is very different from US in the way people act and live their life. That is true but even inside US, California is very different from Texas and New York is very different from Iowa. Just goes to show different states have different lifestyle but are still part of the same country.\nThis is not a bad thing, in fact Canada is lucky to have access to the biggest market of the world. Being under US security umberlla means no one will attack you. Canada's government know this so they made policies that lead to integration with US economical and defence system.

After watching this video if you think that what is going on in Canada is not crazy, then take note of the fact that Trudeau government is also making it even harder for gas and oil companies, mineral extraction and even farmers to basically do their job. While Norway, Arab countries and even US are ramping oil and gas production, in Canada Trudeau is concerned more about increasing carbon tax and the rainbow flags. Honestly I'm very disappointed in this country, it's becoming worse and worse here. Prices are through the roof, housing is insanely expensive, even car prices are higher than in USA. Many people have to maintain 2 or even 3 jobs just to survive. And if you are a recent graduate or an immigrant professional, good luck finding a good job. You probably will end up in a minimum wage job that barely allows you to rent a room in someone's basement, pay for your most expensive in the world cell phone plan, expensive cars.... and wait 6 months to go see a medical specialist. If you're thinking of immigrating to Canada, better consider Europe, USA or developed countries in Asia. I was lucky because I bought property back in 2016. Now it appreciated so much that I'll probably sell and move to a different country. Hard times are ahead for Canadians, Canada is gonna become Cuba #2 very soon

*Now, this is just a mess! They come over here thinking they are better than Black people, and Blacks are the ones that built this Country off their sweat, blood and deaths. GTF out of here. Is there not enough Law Enforcement to stop them, isn't this illegal?*

It’s sad to think what their lives must be like in their native country to leave everything behind for a desperate attempt to get into another country. It’s also sad to think my life is way better simply because I happen to be born here and has nothing to do with being a good person.

We are all God's children. If we lived in a third world country, many of us would want to go to a better life. All I will say is; when you come and if you come, please leave your racism and prejudice against those who are here at the border. Last thing we need is to import prejudiced and racist people.

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

Lock the border because either theyre smuglers or already criminals and or will have criminal babies because that insane all those people want to come to the usa not everyone should be judge like that because they’re more good hard working people than bad but you cant just storm rush another countrys like take your time better if they come in sections and some most of the time won’t make over either dead or in imigration but thats a whole uncontrolled crowd of animals

When Trump called it a mass invasion the race baiters went crazy with bullshit lies. No country just let's everyone in their country freely and if our government don't protect our borders, we as people should. An army of people from a country or countries that want us destroyed could have gotten thousands if not tens of thousands of soldiers in out. Country by now. Just\n Luke the Trojan horse and Troy. We are doomed if the people don't unite. All races in America need to open their eyes and see that their is us, the 99 percent and then there is the 1 percent that see us all as enemies. How can 1 percent control the 99 percent. By division. Divide and conquer. Better get woke for real. Not the woke they feed the masses in the media

They come to America for a better life. And when they made it in and they raise up their native country flag that they left.

I'm first a mom,wife,grandmother and a lover of the human race.\nWe Americans have got to get some kind of immigration reform asap. The Democrat's control everything why didn't they get some kind of bill on the table. Other countries have immigration laws, I do agree we need to first take care of the ones who's been here for 20 years and 10 years the one's with good working efforts and no criminal record pay there taxes every year and get no help from the GOVERNMENT like foodstamps,wic,public housing and free medical insurance. This should be the standard for all Americans. Maybe we should close our borders for everyone for the next ten years until we take care of the ones that are here now. Other countries please take care of your own citizens do better and maybe some day the tables will change around. We Americans will be trying to come to you're country. Americans we can do this if we put the right people in the WHITE HOUSE. PS CONGRESS SHOULD HAVE TERM LIMITS IN THE WHITE HOUSE. WE CAN'T KEEP BEATING THE SAME DEAD HORSE.

These people are think living here is going to give them a better way of life only to be fooled. They are going to wish they stayed in there own country we are going broke and no longer respected or recognized as a superpower. Canada will be a better option for these folks.

They know very little about what is going on in America. As American, we can't afford to live here. Rent is outrageous, food prices are off the roof, gas prices, life, car, rental insurance is so expensive. Their governments need to provide better living conditions in theirs own countries, so this type of eruption won't happen constantly??

I dont know the deal down in Venezuela. \nWhy dont they over run the government....STAY IN HOME COUNTRY...MAKING IT BETTER? \n\nOR diff nations gather take over 1 s american country force change? Isnt it a lot closer? You would be near true homeland. Usa is not perfect either\n....its racist selfish greedy too. Just hidden better. I dont know. \n\nI would rather fight and die than beg. ???

Incredible. Hey Trudeau I hope you have a moment to review the unanimous statements posted here.\nA serious shortage of housing and a health system that can't be fixed .\nI'm no expert but probably 20 nurses , doctors and surgeons if spoken to have some insight on what they are talking about.\nIt was four years ago my family physician looked over the X-rays of my back and he said that if I'm don't have surgery within two months I will end up with a life altering disability.\nHaven't had the surgery and it hasn't even been discussed with my surgeon.\nMind you it's a 42 month waiting time to even get into his office.\nBring them all bring everyone Trudeau you pile of crap. \nMaybe the country would be better off if instead of spending 6k a night on your hotel and just spend 4k like the rest of us working stiffs

Venezuelans had a good country at one point and when other countries in South America wanted to go to their country looking for a better life they spit on everybody’s face thinking they where the best out there, and I’m not saying they deserved but it is very ironic that after not helping now they need help life takes many turns never look down on anyone because one day it could be you?

why can’t they stay in their own countries? ain’t no better over here ??

Man, I really do love everyone who is currently in office for our government at the moment. I just love letting any & everyone into our country, not to mention the cost of groceries & gas is amazing too! I absolutely love paying almost $7.00 just for a gallon of milk. It also just makes me think about such better times that were...... I don't know, like three fucking years ago! When the average American could afford to buy groceries & gas, and any other essential as needed. \n\nNow we will find housing for all of the people illegally entering our country, while we have more than enough Veterans sleeping on the street, & not to mention that 22 Veterans a day kill them selves on average. But MS-13 gang member and Mexican Cartel members deserve a nice place to live, hopefully they don't cut off anyone's head during their stay! ?\n\nBut, anyways....This current regime deserves nothing but praise! Thank you, Democrats, seriously thank the Fuck out of you people!!!?

I would I wouldn’t move to either one of those places they’re just not worth it not to me I’m an American born and raised in the USA America isn’t all that either but it’s a land of milk and honey and that’s why a lot of people want to come and I’m trying to get in America gives you a lot of free things that other countries will never ever give you so people better pray and see where God wants you first

It's worse in other countries,it's sad,it's the end days,it's not gona get better

Y’all need better borders that’s messed up. The economy can’t take these freeloaders like go home and fight. We pay out the ass to live in a “free” country. Just come here with nothing and expect everything like it’s not the 1930s eat shit go home.

Canada’s environment is a much better one than UK. USA is the best of all 3 countries. Florida USA was my final destination.hiding from the cold locations!!

The American government, butts their noses in other countries affairs, such as Ukraine, Iraq, Germany etc throughout the past 100 anõs I think that’s how you spell years in Spanish lol. Yet we do not step in and figure out why our South American countries have it so bad that they fight tooth and nail to come to North America for a better life. In conclusion, how about we go to the south American countries stop all the horrible things that are going on in those South American countries so that way they can have a better life where they are. Maybe then they won’t want to come here illegally in droves no matter what the cost. Because no one is doing anything for them. Forget about Ukraine, let’s band together and help our brown brothers and sisters south of the border.

While I sympathize towards those who really need help, there will come a point where Canada can't just take in all these people. The system will be overwhelmed and there might be negative changes in the country with too much people... if we do take in all these people, there has to be really good support for them so they can assimilate into the Canadian culture and work better lives so they won't be a burden...

It's sad it's easier to escape your own country to a better one with shitty borders. Us Americans aren't able to appreciate how good we actually have it. Else the borders would be better controlled.

NO MORE IMMIGRANTS WE NEED OUR GOVERNMENT TO SEND EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM ON THE FIRST THING FLYING OR BOATING OUT OF THIS COUNTRY WE ARE OVER IT ‼️ IF THEY WANT A BETTER LIFE THEN THEY NEED TO MAKE THEIR OWN COUNTRY BETTER DON’T COME HERE AND RUIN OUR COUNTRY THE WAY THEY DID THERE’S WE AS THE AMERICAN PEOPLE NEED TO STAND UP AGAINST THIS OR IT WILL NOT STOP‼️ THEY ARE NOT WANTED HERE‼️ THE PRESIDENT NEEDS TO MAKE IT LOUD AND CLEAR TO THEM‼️ BUT HE WON’T BECAUSE HE’S THE ONE WHO CAUSED THIS CHAOS IN THE FIRST PLACE ‼️

Its sad how much they want to leave their country. They are scared but we have enough homeless people that i dont think coming here is gonna be much better for them.

Solution is simple. We all know the USA can easily make those third world countries better so none of their citizens would even think of coming to America for a better life economically. If I may ask: who made all those third world countries poor despite their rich natural resources? Message ???

If they organized like this and fought this hard in their country, then maybe they’d have a better country. It’s sickening. These people are worse than roaches. They knowingly come here illegally while it continues to do harm.\n\nMake your own home better instead of leaching off the work of others.\nThey’re so miserable.

Seeing this children? \nVenezuelans fleeing on mass for the USA. Maybe the mass murdering, everyone equally poor and deprived system of socialism doesn't work to well and people want out to a better more free country.

If only they would use that energy in the effort to fix the things they don't like in their country!\nThere seems to be MILLIONS of them,we certainly have millions of them in America already,and no shortage of more coming!\nSo if they won't work to improve their own country,why should we \nassume they would put out effort\nto do any better here ?

Where are they going and where is my military Trump where is my military where is my military where is my military where is my military where is my military to protect my country we are going to be Beyond boarded these are witches coming into our country America you better grow a pair of balls fast

Sorry to say but originally this is a free world that's how god made it. Laws create borders . Without law unfortunately the world would be a zoo it's a hard pill to swallow especially when u are Latino an u see this. I don't understand why Venezuela an south America is so poor now . They need better laws more resources new order every country should learn from the us . ? White Americans will never no how it's feels to a migrant a minority so I really don't appreciate the soft talk these topics should be up to the political system and yes the border should be well protected and respected. Our country is the strongest military I'm the world right? We need to show it.

Most of these people are far better than alot of the people in this country. Couldn’t we work out a trade agreement

Don't let any of them in. I'm so sick of this shit...why don't these people fight to make their own country better!?

Lol. That's so funny. So they come to america illegally Decide they don't like it here because canada's better And then they enter canada with the same tears. The same stories. You need to understand that soon your country is going to be invaded by a very large number Of people trying to enter. And what is going to be strange about it? Most of them are going to be americans

Heart breaking. The world belongs to all of us. At least find them somewhere safe to go. There are way better countries than US

They could have done a much better job installing barriers and choke points along that bridge easily ! Where nothing could have gotten through. Then start lobbing tear gas ! They would have backed up . I’m amazed at how you can just look at the crowd and see what appears to be they’re right to just freely walk into our country illegally ! Like it’s somehow they’re right to just enter into our country illegally ! Joe Biden and the Demonrats are destroying our country on purpose 100%.

All these people need to reorganize and put effort into making their own country better and taking it back

Some of these people might be worthwhile.\n\nI really hope that the integration of these people to the American culture works better than how it did in my country, Chile where they definitely had more of a negative impact as they brought more issues % wise than benefits.

you see Venezuelans are trying to get into Mexico and they ain't letting them now evn the Mexicans can see having flood of migrants isn't easy now they're trying to enter the USA \n\nI hope all this crisis stop \nEuropeans should help on this migrants too not just the middle East other people are also suffering in other places Canada should help Australia new Zealand and other better countries should help \n\nSaudi won't lend a hand because they ain't Muslims \n\nthis is how the hypocrite countries tend see things ????\n\nGod helps us all ??

As an immigrants who grew up here in the US. BRO IF YOU NO PLAN AND NO FAMILY, YOU ARE BETTER OFF IN THE COUNTRY YOU ARE BORN AND RAISED IN.

Americans did this to Venezuela americans either have to take them or make things better in their country. Americans have destroyed many countries
