the whole world is affected not only Canada.

Do not fear the creation (WORLD ) fear the creator (ALLAH)

world is doomed

Why world think Arab countries should take the weight !

why not close these puppy mills and let the quality institute take in international students? best of both worlds, if you can afford 40-60k a year for 2-4 years, you’re pretty much set to immigrate here

We need a whole new world simple

Canada is fast becoming a 3rd world country, its such a shame. I'm from an immigrant family, everyone is accepting of immigrants here, but the government clearly went into overdrive for reasons no one can comprehend, and ALL from one single country to boot. The students are just the tip of the iceberg.

Reading comments, I think you’re making the right decision.\n\nI live in the US and not going to lie, recently I think what if all the Muslims left. All the doctors lawyers labor workers, we are valuable and not treated that way here. I think it would be a wake up call for the country. The Western world has demonized and dehumanized Muslims. I’ve only been to Dubai (outside of us) and it was beautiful to feel comfortable being a Muslim.

The purpose of your video is not to encourage nor discourage living in Canada. Just to share the prevailing sentiments and attitudes. 1) without rigorous methodology vis a vis sociological research, it’s just your precious Millennial opinion, and 2) of course you assume that the world needs to hear your precious Millennial opinion. You would have disappointed me if you didn’t. Oh, and 3) to try to make money in your “side hustle” instead of dedicate yourself to a career. Hope the door doesn’t hit you.

Toronto has become the bed bug and cockroach capital of north america. Thanks Justin Trudeau. Toronto is a third world city.

Canada became 'THE FIFTH WORLD' ???

Yes, it is true ! An idealized view of Canada as a one of the best countries in the world is complete bull shit! It always was.\nI left Canada 30 year ago and never looked back. A cultural desert. No spirit, no soul except Quebec. But they are racists!

The western world shouldn't be too eager to take them as well. Well said

Quite frankly I think we should let in another 7 billion or so people. The world needs our help.

''Are you concerned that the European World would rather sign a Balfour Declaration claiming land lord over somebody else's house instead of creating a homeland in Dorset?''

What a hypocrite, Arab world doesn't want a single Palestinian on their land

I wonder how much the CCP agent paid CBC to specifically bring attention to Indian students, rather than the Chinese majority. Clown world!

Canada is a third world country with scenery. People don't this before they come here.

I came to Canada 4 years ago as an International Student and now have been working for 2 years. We as international student spent almost all our fortune to study in Canada and work for Canadian companies after graduation. A lot of my engineering majors are also working for government project to build more houses. Therefore, if people are working together on this, Canada could even thrive more given we are the second largest country in the world.

I used to teach and coordinate programs for international nurse, this is spot on - and I have always wondered about Canadian students getting into programs - we need Canadian students who are talented and want to study but cannot afford it. There is so much i could unpack. In general, most of the students are lovely and hard-working, but the intent in most cases is to get a PR status - so most of them stay. Many also are disappointed with Canada - as they may come from a place where they were in a different social class. I know many of my students now are productive members of Canadian society working in their chosen fields. I am proud of them - as the move was not easy and they left their families behind. Considering that most of the world is a collectivist culture versus our individualist culture of the West, there is much to adjust to. Good piece.

There is far too much third world trash in canada. Student visas and immigration in general must be paused until the government balances the budget. Canada has no money, and any demographic challenges being faced are specifically the fault of the government. PPC is the only sane choice left for Canadians.

So true. The U.S. and the Israeli right are saying the Arab world does not want the Palestinians but the truth is they don’t want to play into the hands of these forces.

accepting too many Indian* students only. Most come from humble backgrounds and can’t really afford a foreign education. There is a huge agenda behind all this. What happened to the students from rest of the world ??‍♂️

there's nothing wrong with Canada educating the world but it shouldn't be a direct pathway for permanent residency. The other thing that Canada has to check is the quality of education that these students are getting. I spoke to some and they say that they didn't learn much

Wow xenophobia from the CBC. We have the capabilities to build more housing. What we dont have is the capacity for ignorant people to complain about immigration. Shame on the CBC for focusing on the numbers rather than the reason people around the world are immigrating here. \n\nIts the bbc migrant article all over again. Its garbage reporting.

This is Canada's version of the 'Great Replacement' theory, third world immigrants, students and eventually their families. I especially like how the CBC chose to deliver this story using one of their 'banana journalists', you know, yellow or possibly tan on the outside, but very white on the inside. Justin's propaganda ministry is transparent.

No to sharia, no to terrorist, no to war. We all have to protect our home countries from this ideology covered and hidden under a religion! Peace to the world!

It seems like every Liberal Left government worldwide is determined to change and destroy the greatest cities on earth. You have to ask yourself why would they knowingly do this. There is definitely an agenda for this and to most if not all the citizens of these cities they have become complacent and accepting and saying oh well that must be progress. No, it’s not. It is a resetting of values and they want to control you in what you think, do and act. The way of how societies have lived for hundreds of years is at an end and a new world order is upon us.

India has only one biggest draw back thats Hinduism\nOtherwise india wud have been much more advanced country than all those developed countries \nCos india was the world leader when there was no Hinduism existed in our country?

If he cared about the Palestinian people at all, he and the Arab world would join the fight against Hamas and Hezbollah who are the TRUE Oppressors and source of ALL the problems there. The fact that he is not stating is that they all hate the Jews and want them dead.

Canada is a third world country thank you government you're doing a great job

Somewhere in the world changes have made things better?

I don't know how dear this lady is asking such question, imagine she asking Arab world to help to expile Palestinians from their land and give it to someone who is coming from Poland or America who their incester never lived in Palestine at any stage. What unfair world we live in.

America should worry about America. We have our own problems that need attention. Let that side of the world figure out how they wanna work it out.

Canada is not an attractive country anymore. I told my friends in my orgin country like even don't take a trip here to spend your valuable money for these stupid axxhxxx Canadians. In stead, trip to the states we can call beautiful and wonderful country in the world!

My parents immigrated from Britain in the 1959s after WWII and built a comfortable life! At 72 I live a relatively comfortable life although I have spent all my savings and I currently rent! I lived in Spain with my much younger Colombian wife who passed away in 2019. My pension income is sufficient for me to live since I returned to Canada and I have better than adequate healthcare and dental care! The short story is \nTurd and the Turdettes were elected because Harpoons and his band of buttkissing bootlickers were self-serving incompetents. Now Turd, who has never been competent to be PM, which his long list of scandals should easily prove, is going to compel the election of another incompetent self-serving politician. Canadians never learn, switching from one idiot to another as the country spirals into the sewer. The proposed level of immigration and climate change options will turn Canada into a third world country? Maybe we can call it Turdland and then we will all be Turds!

This change is taking place across the entire Western world, from Europe, to Canada, to Australia and New Zealand, to the USA. It's also not an accident, and things *WILL* continue to get worse until all of you people wake up and realize what the root cause of all these problems is: non-Western mass immigration.\n\nThe time for being polite is long past. It's time to stand up and speak the truth without fear. Be honest with yourselves - you all know it deep down. Enough is enough. Time to take our countries back.

I don't think the problems you're describing are a uniquely Toronto issue (many cities across the world are having an affordability crisis - Toronto's is bad, but not unique). I think it's also a lasting effect from COVID (especially on the mental health side). I do sympathize with Chow - seems like the city isn't getting much help from the feds who are allowing mass immigration without any infrastructure or services to support it (see 10.5% proposed property tax hike in order to keep the city afloat after Tory). All in all, think the city needs a bit of time to heal after the past few years but I'm optimistic it'll get there.

I agree with all of what you said, of course it’s a result of still the 2008 crash people have not recovered then they were hit by COVID-19 then after COVID-19, both Canada and America have drained their money into the Ukraine war, after that now Canada is draining its reserve into the clash in the mid east, trying to walk in line with America again, but they have America have US dollar which is backed by most of the world even though America is suffering now they are now on 33 trillion deficit, and it is continuing, many economist, they say if it wouldn’t be, America are printing the dollar if it would’ve collapsed long time ago, America is involving itself around the world and that cost huge money but it is unfortunate that Canada it’s trying to follow with it which means higher taxes and higher cost in the trillions

Temporary residences leaving Canada start to cry how we can return back just after several months later. There is no any perfect country on the world!

Maybe if the city raised property taxes and put it towards making more bike paths, we could be more of a world class city.

Arab world Lol

Canada is not in a bubble! It’s changing like the rest of the world is changing. Canada is not immune to all the problems the rest of the world has.

No the Arab world doesn't want them because they are trouble wherever they go, the past proves it.

Something is very rotten in this world.. The governments of these countries heavily criticise The West but at the end of the day, their refugees from their countries come flocking to us for a better life.. Fleeing is easy! If you really want a better life, you need to work hard and push against your leaders to demand that your voice is heard! offering asylum is the humane thing to do yes, but it's not helping solve any problems. Sometimes you need to be cruel to be kind and i think it's about time we shut the doors.

It's not just Toronto.. all of Canada is now just a dumping ground for the 3rd world. Rental markets destroyed, housing out of control, and homeless tents. It's only going to get worse.

I visited Toronto in 1986 and I've had friends from that city. The whole world is changing and facing the issues you mentioned in your video. I had lived in Seattle before its decline. I'm in Pittsburgh temporarily and I had lived recently in Erie, PA. They all seem to be facing the same situation--housing crisis, homelessness, and crime. And in Pittsburgh, limited social services.\n\nHowever, I'm sad to see a socialist country such as Canada suffer with these ills. If a socialist country can't take care of its people, there's little home for a capitalist country like the US.

Interesting that you lived your whole lives in canada probably the most open and accepting country in the world..yet you claim hate crimes..a walking target really? Yup Canada is currently a woke and leftist country lots of problems sure.. your best bet would be to renaounce your canadian citizenship...

So - No we will not assist, because the rest of the world should?

The white world wants Palestinians to leave so Israel can have Palestine.
