Ughh ever since trudeau became prime Minister he ruined everything good about canada. \nHousing is bad.\nFood prices are high.\nAnd health care is bad as well. . \nThey need to stop overpopulating canada. Many are homeless because our stupid prime minister. Yet he brings in more and more immigrants for what reason? I dont remember canada being this bad when he wasn't our prime minister.

Yes he is the problem liberals ndp in my opinion need extra money to justify free daycare which i think is great for families dental great to cuba has free dental think about that everything has a cost extra tax really you idiots you think the streets are full of street people cayse they want to be there ive never seen canada this way i feel so bad for whats coming axe the tax let people eat i think this green agenda is destroying familys and putting more canadians on the street are people that obtuse

Canadians need to understand that Trudeau does not work for them. He is a WEF puppetician. This is where he takes his orders on things like immigration, spending, crime prevention, carbon taxes, and immigration. This is why he doubles down on unpopular programs like climate, and immigration in spite of the fact that they are creatubg serious hardships for Canadians. This explains the warning from the RCMP about coming social unrest. Ignore the prople long enough and out come the pitchforks. \n Just as Obama is the president or the US, Klaus Schwab is the defacto PM of Canada. 29% of Canadians haven't figured this out yet. These are candidates for MAID

He's the worst Prime Minister in Canadian history! His ministers are also the worst Canada has ever had. Liberals won't get back into power ever again because of the damage this party has done! We need an election now!

Why do we need more houses? Why when the natural growth of Canada is only coming from immigration. So now we use taxpayers dollars to pay for more housing that immigrants are moving into. But it’s Canadians money not theirs. But now they get it for free!!!! It’s that sjmple

If all the trees in Canada obsorb the1.5%of the CO2 ten times over how come we have a carbon tax? Does CO2 stop at all the worlds borders or doe's it cross over and our trees are taking up CO2 for other countries who don't pay carbon tax. If we remove the CO2 from the air what will the trees have to make us our oxygen for us to breath? How come money isn't being used on Methane from the land fills.It's 26% of the GHG causing climate change.Why doe's Canada and it's people need to be the ones to set an example for the rest of the world when we produce a very small amount of CO2? Maybe the rest of the large CO2 producers need to be paying us for carbon capture because we take care of our trees. \n \n \n \nReply

What a joke! It is out of control because of him. \nObviously it is important now because the election is coming, and he is trying to do damage control.\nTelling people what they want to hear and act all concerned now is a little too late. \nHe will continue destroying Canada if there is anything left by the time the election rolls around. \nIf he gets re-elected we are finished for sure.\n\nI have never voted conservative in my life but I now will be because of this party..and ndp.\nAm I happy about it…no. \nAnything is better than this bunch, and our choices are very limited. \nThey can’t even hold a conversation and work together/ compromise, find solutions that work.\n\nThe laws and system need to be changed to prevent this from ever happening again. You will never see talk about that though.\nI have very little faith in any party at this point. Stand strong ??

It is to late now.\nMost migrants and immigrants are pressing to bring their parents and grandparents to Canada and if he wants thier votes he needs to implement policies to make this happen.

This guy has his head in the sand. Trudeau is saying we have to turn off the rampant immigration, as if he didn't have a hand in any of this. What a joke. He needs to go. Now, not later. The damage he's inflicting upon Canada will be felt for decades down the road, he can't have more time to enact even more of his damaging policies.

Time to cement up the hole..These are not G8 countries looking to start fresh in a new country with job skills we need like Home builders Or doctors willing to stay in Canada They are 3rd world countries Looking for a loop hole to get into a open armed country Use its resources Health, Social services, food banks, on a student visa while applying for Perm rez. From that they move on to harder to get into countries that offer more wages..USA England France Germany Where before hand they would of been denied entry not being from a G8 country When you have 8 people from the same country living in a 2 bedroom home Of course the rent is high Because 8 people working on their share of the rent isnt a problem Times this by every dam city that has colleges near by \nTrudeau is intentionally trying to destroy Canada from within Farmers Truckers immigration Slush funded apps Food Gas Homeless military ...Word to the wise China has 200 million well fed troops

Definitely needs to resign now , Canada is being destroyed breaks my heart , i love Canada ?? ❤

What does the government do with the carbon tax and the money, both evaporate or disappear from your sight. In Latin America every day. Untill today still telling people come to Canada we have so much work for you. We need workers?

Everyone knows justin trudeau hates his own citizens n wants to fully destroy canada ?? this is why he is all for these ILLEGALS waltzing in with there condums full of fentinol to sell off to our legal canadian youths ? trudeau needs to STEP DOWN NOW!!!!!

Most released from there countries prisons for horrendous crimes n most throw there id away before waltzing in our canada ?? ?

Jobs, housing,health,loans education, goes to people who never put money or effort in this country. Most of them see Canada as the sidechick. Just convenient.\nI liked PP answer when he was asked about the numbers of immigrants his goverment will be bringing in. Every year will be different he said based to our needs. Common sense.

Nothing new here. Lilley said it as plain and as simple as it can be said. TURDeau is responsible for all the problems he and the policies his band of incompetent ministers have put forward over the past 8 years. You name a problem in this country and you can be that the criminaLIBERALunatics were 100% responsible for creating it and now they are scrambling to make bigger problems attempting to solve the original problem. It's long past time Canada eradicate the scurge of Liberalism in this country and relegate them to unofficial party status in the next election. I truly hope that not a single existing minister gets relected in the next election, including JustINFLATION TURDeau, Christia NOTA-Freeland, Steven GuilBOOOP!!, Anita AnandMORETAXES, Melanie onaJOyrideLY, Francois-Philippedout drinkingChampagneallday, Sean shouldbe-ERASERed, Dominic LeBlancSTAREofanidiot, Johathan WilkinsonSWORDinEveryCanadian'sBelly, Jenna Sudds-inherbrain, Marck MillerTIME, Diane LeBOOTonyourthroatlikeHItLLIER and the many more equally deserving of mention.\nOUT OUT OUT all of them, and hopefully we never need to hear their names uttered again.\nBring on the CARBON TAX ELECTION/REFERENDUM so we can begin the process of repairing all the damage caused by this totally inept and incompetent band of morons.\nLONG LIVE FREEDOM DAMMIT!!!!!!

Slam the immigration door 100%. Do we need to increase our population? Really? More people drives up our CO2 emissions, allows undesirables to enter and stay here and increases the housing crisis - all of these are bad for Canada. Who has allowed all this to happen? There is only one person to blame and that’s Trudeau. He’s hurting Canada on purpose. Time for him to go one way or the other. Oh I suppose with all that fresh snow in Ottawa he could just slip and slide down to the canal.

There’s clearly going to come a point where Trudeau will need to be forcefully removed. Canada cannot maintain this malice.

Oh gawd…..I’M sick of colour of skin BS……ALL COLOURS OF PEOPLE CAN BE RASISM …….STOP THE INTERNAL WAR WITH THE COLOUR OF OUR SKIN……THE DIFFERENCES IS IN OUR CULTURE BELIEFS…..EVERY COUNTRY HAS DIFFERENT CULTURES….GOVERNMENT……ITS OVERCOMING AND EDUCATION AND SIMPLY SHARING DIFFERENT CULTURES WITHIN COMMUNITIES. THIS IS THE OUTCOME OF GLOBAL, AND IMMIGRATION. AS HUMANS CAN WE NOT PULL TOGETHER? WE NEED A SOLID LEADER IN CANADA THAT HAS POLITICAL POLICIES THAT RESPECT “FREEDOM” AND “FAIRNESS” FOR ALL CANADIANS…..HES A LIAR! JUST PROVED IT WITH QUEBEC…ON CARBON TAX.

That clown needs to be removed from power. Mismanagement of Canada and Canadian tax dollars

Canada needs manufacturing. It can't just depend on a few things for $ ??

One doesn't need a house in Canada. You go rent an apartment and you may live. Of course, if you earn 2000.00 to 4000.00 CAD per month. Which is rather difficult for immigrants. Usually, your pay is 10.00 CAD per hour, which gives you 1600.00 CAD per month. Which is way too little for covering your bills. Government instead of building cheap communal blocks of flats is building condos. But the cheapest condominium costs 500K CAD and show me people who can afford it....? You buy and pay monthly rent, yeah 2500.00 4500.00 per month only to cover rent. Plus 186.00 for internet and TV, 30.00 for stationary phone, 45.00 for mobile, 600.00 for monthly food for 2, plus meds, dentist, cabbies, electricity, water, then you add toilette, laundry liquid, toilet paper, towel paper, cat food, dog food, then the bill goes over 6000.00 if you wanna live in the condo. You have always private sector housing where monthly rent is from 900.00 to 2500.00, which depends on the district and quality of the apartment. For the landlord, you must pay monthly and renew lease each year. If you have roaches or bed bags, it's a bigger problem for you. Not every landlord uses paste. They use spray, which is not a roach killer at all, and whole your apartment will stink for months. Private sector has thin ceilings and wooden floors, so loud noise of your neighbour's may disturb your night rest or cigarettes. Smoke may fill up your space. Beware when getting sick. Family doc is unavailable, usually if you have one or at all if you don't.

I want to leave Canada because I want to live in a country where you don't need to own a car.

I was misdiagnosed for year and could have died when I went to the emergency room. I needed surgery and was told my wait would be two years. Then, when I went to Serbia to have life-saving surgery, the government would not refund the cost, because they decided it was not an emergency—I “could have survived with a catheter”. The doctors in Canada are kind and lovely people, but they are just overworked. The system is completely broken. I’ve been telling all my European friends who are thinking of immigrating to Canada to stay far away. Is there a single government service in Canada that is functioning well?

Canada needs to find a way to balance immigration with affordable housing.

The wages of the people have not increased much, but the prices have skyrocketed. The harsh government has imposed heavy taxes on the people. The middle class cannot afford to pay the taxes alone, mortgages, car loans, water, electricity and gas bills. The refugees who eat taxpayers' welfare should be driven away, and the rich and skilled people should stay. The middle class can't support a bunch of lazy people no matter how much tax they pay. Is it fair to them? Canada does not need low-end immigrants and refugees. With so many refugees in the world, can Canada save them?

Liberals and conservatives out, CANADA ?? NEEDS CHANGE!

Indians living there who used to be one of the highest ethanic groups and highest Tax payers in Canada are leaving Canada in large numbers and moving back to India. Recently India saw a trend of reverse migration across the world but majority are from Canada. Dear Canadian brothers and sisters please skilled yourself and your native population and take proper education and Training so that country setup in your land need not to outsource Skilled workforce from India.

Canada's population should be at least 100+ million. Canada needs to invite 50 million more immigrants.

Canadians do not want this, the Liberals have tapped out the middle class and now they need to keep importing millionaires and low skill workers in order to fleece more tax dollars from more warm bodies. The oligarchs are juicing the system and profiting on their investments. Canadians are unable to compete with imported money and standards of living. This is of no benefit to average Canadians. Ideaologies and climate change are being used as a smoke screen to shame those who oppose this many immigrants or being over taxed, its a form of narcissistic abuse on the population. I could care less if we can't staff drive-thrus. Nobody should have to pay someone else's mortgage to live in a house they'll never own themselves. Canada is ruined and the cause is greed, corruption, nepotism and apathy.

I have had relatives and acquaintances who moved to the USA. They had a visas to work in Maine in the sixties and seventies. They got drafted during the Vietnam era. One did not go back and they other did two years in the US army during the Vietnam war. They moved back to Canada, after he finished his 2 years, he moved back to Canada. The one who did not report for service to the army, moved to,Ontario, and the guy who served two years moved back for Canada, and his wife needs health care that they couldn't afford in the USA..

Canada and the West, in general, need to look to Singapore for a system that works\n\n- Focus on Budget Surpluses- to provide long term political and monetary stability (aka not spending more than they take in)\n- Mandatory High Savings rate (due to CPF, a mandatory savings program that operates like Social Security but doesnt put the cost burden on the next generation)\n- Focus Low Taxes - to attract businesses and incentivize growth\n- A focus on Home Ownership (to make sure citizen have a stake in the country- this leads to more stability)\n- Strong Rule of Law

Canada needs immigrant money but not immigrants who may become legal citizens later. Simple solution, stop issuing visas.

I think Canada needs less commumism and more real canadian culture. When i moved in 3 years ago everything felt extremely artificial, confusing, and depressing. Like everyone was on the brink of going crazy. I am glad I came back to my country Italy.

I thought Canadians were nice ppl......what a BIG BS STEREOTYPE.\ni think Canada needs to learn basics and not treat immigrants like this. Especially when ALMOST ALL the Canadians themselves were immigrants one day jus like USA.\nPpl learn to respect human beings especially when u call them from outside to help ur own country in exchange for lesser rewards.

Canadian gov't needs to spread its population out of big cities, e.g., Toronto, Vancouver, to suburbs and invest more into infrastructure. I live in the US but have relatives in Toronto and I went to Toronto, Canada, back in the 90s. And I went to Toronto about two years ago, traffic congestion on 401, 404, and QEW highways were nightmare, no new highways built.

Canada is a great country and Trudeau is a great man. We need more immigration into Canada. Those who are complaining are just selfish and dont want other immigrants in.

700,000 of the 1.1 million that came to Canada are students. The international student system needs to be overhauled. The university/colleges who want international students must register with the feds. Those with permits MUST BE MADE to build, own, and provide international students with housing. When an international student is offered a placement in a Canadian education institution, they are also offered housing built by that institution. Once acceptance is made, then the details are sent to the feds and the visa is finally issued. This way, everyone who comes, has housing, it takes pressure off the domestic housing market, the students themselves know where they are going to be and how much things will cost, including the housing, and the Canadian institutions who want the stdents, have to now pay for them. This will force the education institutions to build more housing, lower the number of students they bring in, and offer much more remote learning opportunities if the program really does not require the students to come at all. Pass the bill onto the institutions, and the problem will quickly resolve. The federal government is being LAZY. If it wants people, it has to focus on a system that makes sense for people to come to Canada, insure the institutions dont take advantage of these students AND NOT shift the housing problem to the domestic market. The federal and provincial governments also need to organize themselves with each other. The provinces should tell the federal government how many they can take in based on housing stock and unemployment rate, and the feds only grant visas based on those numbers, and the visas require those coming to be in the province that has space for them. This way, you help to take pressure off the larger cities and spread growth to areas of the country that wants the growth. The approach needs to be bottom up, so needs and capacity drive the numbers allowed in.

Immigrant with my parents. My father spoke English with a Doctorate. Sponsored and job obtained prior to sending for the family. \nContrast that today with 1000s of questionable asylum claimants and mostly Indian students that are looking for a PR card via the back door. \nHousing supply is millions of units less than required. That's insane! Stop opening the tap until Canada clarifies our needs and ability.

I'm coming for my Master's in Ontario, I'm scared that Canada is full now and it doesn't need immigrants due to housing, unemployment issues etc.\n\nNot sure what to do, should I hold back until situation gets better

Wow what’s Canada doing right to make this happen please tell us the secret my country uk needs to take note on how Canada’s doing this

As a Canadian this video is only touching the tip of the iceberg. #1 Canada was built by immigrants (like my late grandparents) for immigrants, Immigrants regardless if they are here on a work or study permit are not the problem but the solution, always have been and always will be. Yes the part of the problem can be attributed to an inadequate affordable housing and yes the federal government does deserve blame for that. However as the 2nd largest nation in the world by land mass yet with a population less than California, we have a lot of underdeveloped areas from the Pacific to the Atlantic, and that is also the fault of the federal government regardless of political stripe. Regardless if people come to Canada to work or study, the federal government needs to make it more attractive to them to reside outside the BIG 3 cities of Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver which have become overwhelmed with immigrants hence the strain on housing and healthcare

I just visited and too many homeless people it made the visit unbearable. It was a snow storm and saw people laying in the snow. Very sad. Every hotel was full and over priced I had to stay in an apartment complex converted into a hotel. $1000 Canadian dollars for a 2 room for a night was excessive. Canada needs to do better

Canada's immigration policy needs reform to support our growing population. Housing shortages, rising food insecurity, and healthcare challenges are leaving many Canadians and immigrants struggling.

Why does canada need 1 million international students? Issue 100K student visas.

Canada has issues and opportunities. You need to look into it before make the decision of moving to Canada. Sadly there are many people or businesses that only want to take advantage of young professionals or young students. The country is very expensive even for locals. The minimum wage is no enough to live comfortable and as a full time student you wont be able to work full time. So take your time and do an honest analysis weather if you have the money and spirit to come to Canada. It is a great country, but definitely it's NOT for everyone.

Canada's economy is a migit to the US, and the US are more accepting of the qualifications of immigrants. The people who run the country need training in logic

The rich want their services that keep them comfortable. There are not enough Canadians who want to make careers out of the service sector to serve the Wealthy 5 percent of the population. Guess what, crime pays much more than any service career. Bringing immigrants just adds fuel to the fire. Canada needs to make the service sector and all other careers far more apealing and far more accessible so we can give these immigrants and their children high paying incomes so they don't come for the wealthy class.

Canada needs to help ODSP injured workers like how come if we work hard for an employer and we get injured permanently we are doomed to life in poverty??? Its bulshit!!! They should atleast be able to support themselves and their kids because the kids suffer now too and we take away their ability to provide a decent life its a literal living nightmare!

You go to an expensive city and the cost of living will be higher. If your goal is to send money home, living in a very expensive city to pinch pennies isn't the strategy. Consider Edmonton or a small city that can meet your needs and long term goals. Think of the long term goal and do the math before immigrating to Canada.

To apply visa of canada do we need to book hotel n flight ticket first before apply? Do they request those bookings on the submission? Or we can submit without those bookings (hotel n flight)?
