Does this thing still exist in this place??\n\nBecause i live in a Muslim Area residence and they don't do this here. We actually feels secured because of them because drunk people causing havock and trash can't cause trouble here. D&rug dealers can't also linger in our area because the Muslim people here doesn't care about them $#it and will tell police about them.\n\nThe people with other religions also come to them to talk if there is neighborhood disputes.\n\nBut! Our Muslims here doesn't harass women with different clothing, because they respect other religion. They don't care if they $|aught€r a pig if they have a feast or party.\n\nIt's give and take. If the Muslims have parties or it's Ramadan time, people should not say something because its their turn to do their stuff.

Diversity only works when things are going well, in tough times it doesn’t

Blah blah blah says a lot doesn't do anything

Well, you decided to return. Your decision. Nothing wrong or right about it. Whatever works for you. But one thing is certain. By deciding to return, you have taken your kids back to the land of extreme competition. You have robbed them of the opportunity to spend a comfortable joyful teen age. You have driven them back to extreme academic competition which will continue all their life. It is surprising that though you found a job and were able to manage without your husband, you decided to return back because you couldn't adjust with the food or with your Canadian colleagues. I would say that if you are moving to a new country, you should be more adaptable. And yes good IELTS score doesn't mean good English. We Indians can at best have business proficiency of the language. In order to gain cultural proficiency (lack of which was botgering you), it takes lot more time and effort. I would say you should have put more thought into your decision.

We will not work with my one that doesn’t have that agenda well said ❤

Why doesn't the west leave the east alone. Do business with them and let them get on with it. Their culture is so far different to the west that we don't fundamentally understand it. They don't want our help. It just causes wars and terrorism

Who would have thought a country run by a part time drama teacher that doesn’t think about monetary policy, a useless journalist, and a bench of activists would have financial problems. Weird.

Israel doesn't want Palestinians to return to Gaza. Every building is destroyed.

I never thought about the reason why Canada would allow the monopolies, and your explanation makes sense (it doesn't make sense we pay this much for groceries though ?). Your explanation about the housing market also makes a lot of sense, thank you for sharing these ideas with us. And yes, I decided to leave Canada after a year ?

The best reply doesn't exi.....

WHY DOESN'T EUROPE TAKE THEIR EUROPEAN JEWS BACK

The Arab guy speaking doesn’t understand the reality that Israel isn’t going to stop. The immediate concern would be to keep as many civilians safe out of war torn area right now.

Israel has the right to exist, so does Palestine. Hamas on the other hand doesn’t

Why doesn't Europe take back their Jews?

About #8: As a Finn I gotta say making friends is just as hard in Finland, people are reserved, however the politeness is something that Finnish culture just doesn't have.

This is f****** crazy\nPeople are dying this problem needs some bigger better people that would handle it carefully\nHe's just sitting there listening to his own voice\nHaving a good afternoon telling those people to stay there\nfree Palestine hamas is no one's helper\nit won't improve anything this problem is not simple there many to blame include israel\nIm not even Jewish but this s*** is insane you guys don't care about the truth you hear all this insane stories and you don't doubt them for a moment obviously doubt everything on the other side that it's insane doesn't even resembles truth you don't care about the people you don't want peace\nI pray for the people in gaza \nhave a better government soon one that actually cares for them and a country where they can have a good life not just kill or die

Yeah sure or maybe he doesn’t want Palestinian to ruin their country with Hamas.

No offence to new immigrants but if you came here past 2018 you should not be allowed to buy a house until house prices get back to sane levels. I was born in raised in a small town surrounded by farmland in Ontario and the average cost of a home is now 700k. 20 years ago it was 150k. No one I grew up with can afford a home, I'm sorry but Canadians first. Other countries seem to care way more about their own people waaaay more than here. I feel like Canadians are constantly the ones who just have to suck it up. Its absolutely nonsense. Either something has to happen or I, and many Canadians in the same position will leave. Canada sucks at the moment, do not come here! Almost everyone I talk to who is born here agrees, lib, con, ndp, doesn't matter what political party they usually vote for, they want immigration to stop, and homes to be built. We're at the breaking point.

Sounds great , except , Palestinians have no land . It's called ISRAEL . People can call it Palestine until they're blue in the face , but it doesn't change the fact that the land belongs to Israel and always will .

Canada doesn't have a democratic government,its more of a dictatorship.

First of all that land doesn't belong to them. It belongs to Israel. Palestinians stole that land.

Canada sort of sucks unless you love winter sports. Its freaking cold, and I mean take what you think is cold in western Europe or US and multiply by 10 then add endless snow for 4-5 months of the year. So yeah that doesn't help

Or she can ask why doesn’t Europe or the U.S take Israel? Why is the western media pushing aggressively for Middle Eastern countries to take Palestinian citizens? The simple answer is because they obviously want I$r@el to expand its settlements in Gaza & the West Bank therefore taking the entirety if the land from the river to the sea.

Muslim world doesn't resolve around Europe now. It revolves around Turkiye.

I’m Cuban but moved to Canada when I was 9. Now I am 25. Canada for sure has its issues, and I do want to leave one day, but not because I think Canada is so broken that the only solution is to leave, I just cannot take this cold for the rest of my life. With that being said, so many Canadians have no clue just how good we have it here, it doesn’t mean we shouldn’t complain in hopes to improve, but just to serve as a reminder, that compared to majority of the world, we are so lucky.

The Arab world doesn’t want the Palestinians and who can blame them.

This is mostly the marginal explanation. What is actually causing the problems in Canada is PRECISELY the expectations of a high standard of living absolutely everyone has, including brand new immigrants. Who as if they were owed a palace immediately begin complaining about the work they have to do and the fact they're not immediately appointed the king of Canada. To put simply, we have an incredibly spoiled population, a population that expects low prices for everything and has a terrible productivity overall and does not wish to work in the kinds of jobs that every economy needs in order to fuel everything else. Food production is the so-called inceptive value. The more food you produce, the more people can consume it, and this in turn flows through the economy to enable all the other kinds of economic activity. We have to bring in hundreds of thousands of temporary foreign workers from Mexico just to be able to harvest. In the past, Canada allowed immigration from all over the world of people who were mostly poor, refugees, and those desperate for a new life. They worked all the time doing every kind of imaginable job in every kind of condition. They built this country with their perseverance and hard work. The immigrants today, are selected on a points-based system, and the idea behind this is that someone with two university degrees, or trained in a profession, even if they don't work in their field in Canada because they're all sorts of barriers to transferring your education, are not very likely to be criminals or antisocial types. Criminals or antisocial types. In other words, Canada has chosen to attract high quality candidates on the assumption that they would be less likely to become criminals, while they in turn, having been picked from the best in their society, arrive in Canada with very high expectations, and discover that actually they're going to have to work in all sorts of other kinds of jobs and will probably not work in their field, even though that's what got them the points to come to the country. The country. This is the brilliant system brought in by Stephen Harper's conservatives, which brings in people with high education, and allegedly high skills, especially high language skills, so the government doesn't have to pay for their language training, but it doesn't consider the fact that these are very often people with other choices, who are not willing to work in construction or farming or service or retail or all those kinds of things that we desperately need workers in. The reason why we can't build enough housing has nothing to do with local governments and property values. It has to do with lack of labor. This education system, for some unbeknowned reason, is absolutely terrible, and provides basically no skills, training or education for the vast majority of high school students such that when they graduate high school, their forced to go to university or college. Since they have absolutely no training. In most parts of the world you finish high school and you have a trade, or you have some skill to begin working, the kids here know nothing. Nothing. Other than emotional safety, intersectional language, and wokeism. On top of that, the government has brought in every kind of environmental restriction and regulation on account of incredibly loud, but actually small minority of enviro lunatics, who most of the time use these environmentalism as a cover precisely for protecting their high property values in very luxurious and special places around the country, and they oppose logging and all sorts of resource extraction under the guise of environmentalism. But it's actually to preserve their special privileged position often in some wilderness or island, where they might be the only one or a handful of families who got lucky to somehow own a property. Property and so they oppose everything on account of environmental reasons. But it's just to keep people out and preserve their own privileged place. This country also as most others suffers from the illness of dishonesty and lack of integrity brought about by a culture of marketers where nothing is the way it is said to be. Everything is a fine print. And we have gotten used to this as normal. We've gotten used to having credit cards, charges, 25% interest, we've gotten used to being ripped off constantly by all the corporations for everything, and nobody complains and they just borrow more and they just bottle it in and now it's finally coming out. Out. People are fed up of the enviral lunatics. They're fed up of people who complain and bitch one moment about the pipeline and then complain and bitch the next moment about the high cost of gasoline when the pipeline is temporarily shut down for servicing. The problem with Canada is Canadians.

My family came to Canada 5 years ago. The main reason was because my dad had been busy setting up a branch of his European company here for two years. He wanted to launch this new branch and then retire early. Canada as he knew it was a good option for him to do this. We even had a house long before we came to Canada. And we now live on the west coast of Canada. \n \nFor us, the transition to feeling at home here wasn't particularly difficult. We also had enough experience of what it was like to live in other countries. Canada actually turned out to be a very easy country to quickly settle in. \n \nI've heard that Canadians can be reserved, but my personal experience is completely different. \n \nNevertheless, I got to know fellow immigrants who didn't find it easy to get started in Canada. In my experience, they were not very or only rudimentarily informed about what to expect in Canada. Their expectations were very high and they failed because of the reality of everyday Canadian life. \n \nOthers had similar experiences, but they persevered and ultimately arrived in Canada. Some of my fellow students are international students who are also considering leaving the country because Canada doesn't offer what they were hoping for as a better life here. \n \nThe reasons are really too individual in nature to really generalize. I think there should be a lot more help given to people who are struggling with their fate in Canada, because there are enough programs that they could take advantage of but that they never hear about. \n \nUltimately, it may help if someone just listens to them and perhaps has some advice, no matter how vague it may be. Those who finally arrive in Canada after years of a long odyssey and find this country something like home are, in my opinion, those who never gave up.

?? if you will international student, you need think about this. The education doesn’t be free or cheap. If you will live in a richest country, you need prepare before. The Canadians don’t deserves suffering for other people mistakes. ?

Well trump never finished the border however he said he will if he doesn’t end up in prison so the border may not be finished again ?

The journalist is really funny. Why doesn't the west give their own lands to the jews? Hypocrites.

Okk I accept that Palestinians doesn't not like to leave their lands but why the other countries like Egypt and other arab worlds are not leaving this Palestinians to stay at their country until the war is over ??? If you all Arab countries really cares about the Palestinians life aah ???

Half-right, half wrong. Yeah, Palestinians should keep their land. But what is Saudi really doing to ensure their safety? More relief (maybe?), but no actual protection. It's a warzone! Without security/medical aid, what are they supposed to do? Saudi made peace with the Apartheid state! Saudi doesn't intervene! He's just doing media-spin, deflecting. I don't know if the reporter was explicitly saying Palestinians should be expelled, but I'm not giving the minister the benefit of the doubt here. I don't think the reporter was even saying that.

it is not about immigration, it is about how much refugees we brought in and how corrupted is the government and our so called democracy system doesn't work. \n \nimmigration come here with investment or they work and pay tax. refugees don't. you get it?

How evil are they. They Muslims don't fight and tell Palestine to fight, encouraging them fight and flow their own bloods. Telling them don't give up. Giving them medications to fight more and die. This shows they don't care of the blood of Palestine, While this Saudi should have supported Palestine with Saudi troops. \n Why people are so amazed by this coward answer of Saudi FM.\nThat Land doesn't only belong to Palestine but to Muslims.

Ok but will the Arabs do the same for Israel? It's been many years and it doesn't look like it

Also he doesn’t want an uprising in Saudi ?

There is no Palestine these are Arabs that the middle east doesn’t want. Nice excuse. From Gods point of view.

From reading the comments doesn't seem like people understand that SA is allied with the US and Israel. Minister says they're not going to work with people whose agenda is removing Palestinians from their land but they are in fact doing just that. SA could easily put pressure on the States but has chosen not to. Actions speak louder than words.

Except for the fact, it was never their land lol, you’ve gotta go back way further than 1900 to know who’s land it was, the Kingdom of Judea and the religion of Judaism was around long before Islam and before the Arab colonization of the Middle East, just because Romans conquered and disconnected the Jewish people from their land, doesn’t mean it isn’t their land. Fact is, it was the Kingdom of Judea long before Palestine was even thought of.

BEAUTIFULLLLL \n\nIf your heart or mind doesn’t agree with what that Human Man said\n\n\nYou’re a disgusting Racist no matter how much you tell yourself You are Not \n\n☝??☝?

Great answer for someone who doesn't want to get involved. Blew everybody's mind here

Thats a lie he just doesn't want them because he doesn't want his country to be like Lebanon

He doesn't care how many died.he wants them to stay.

Yes he's right but the Palestinians don't have the right to be shooting rockets at innocent people and starting wars !!!!, hes no fool he doesn't want them thier either we are the only nieve ones opening our boardes to them !!!, thats why we need Trump !!!

Exactly. Why doesn’t the USA just give the Jewish people New York City?!? ???

If anyone sides with that obnoxious reporter, then why Brooklyn doesn't take all of the jews or even the whole us! They are the ones who migrated and have no claim or right to stay there.

What a stupid question. What a perfect answer. Why doesn't she ask the Western countries to bring home their Jewish citizens. The percentage of jews in Israel with two passports may be as high as 40%

No one blamed the European countries when they didn’t want to take in Jews and just gave them to the Nazis…\nWhy would I as a European blame the Arab countries for not taking in even more refugees, when it just helps Israel to get away with more human rights violations and displacement of people ?\nBut generally I have lost all my fate in western media. Even if the stick to the fact they leave out important information if it doesn’t suit Israel. Sad thing is I don’t even believe they get paid for that…\nI can only hope other people will be smart enough to realise this and punish our politicians for the involvement in this

No, because once they accept them into their country, Israel will not allow the Palestinians to return. It doesn't take a genius to figure that out. Palestinians must withstand the suffering. Sooner or later, Satanyahu will get tired once he drains war funds.
