I’m a US Canadian dual Citizen born in India living in US, I normally travel to Canada whenever I feel I need some Indian vibe.

I'm 52 years old and a Canadian citizen my whole life. Canada has always been a welcoming country. I have friends from every part of the world here in Canada. But in the couple years there has been a brutal influx of Indians in Canada. My build alone had maybe 3 Indian households. Now more than 60% of the building is indians. And the problem is 6 to 8 people living in a 2 bedroom apartment. We use to have 1 garbage bin in the basement. Now we have 3 and they are over flowing and they leave garbage everywhere( I've watched them do it). Not everyone has house keys so they leave the security door open all hours of the day allowing criminals to get into the building. They have shit in the laundry room and the garage(I have seen this happen). They smoke in the building halls and lobby. They Dont use laundry detergent when washing their clothes so the laundry machines stink really bad. I have to was the laundry machine before even putting my clothes in.Also they have taken every job in the business in my neighborhood. They aren't very friendly. They come into my restaurant and act like entitled brats and hang out for 6 to 7 hours in groups of 20 and don't tip. They're loud and demanding. Now our regular client's have stopped coming. Since these new Indians have come here they have tainted everything. I have never been a racist individual in my whole life. My family is very diverse. We are white, black, packistan, and Asian. In the last 3 years I am so disgusted in the quality of people that have been coming to this country. The biggest group is Indians. I'm sorry but be don't need any more of these assholes. We have enough of our own assholes

As a Canadian citizen from an Immigrant background myself, I’m all for Immigration. However, Immigration cannot be coming for the vast majority from a single country, which is India, as per Immigration Canadada own stats, 70% of international students visa were delivered to Indian students, what about the rest of the world ???? Everywhere you go you see indians, dollarama, tim hortons, walmart, and indians are not discrete. That’s why we Canadians have had enough with Indians, this mass immigration specifically from Indians needs to be stopped!

After all, the atrocities done by Indians is not forgivable. Instead of studying or doing something meaningful, these people especially sardars/gujratis without proper english start taking up native Canadian jobs like truck driving, delivery etc, why don't these guys stay in Punjab and do the same? Going to Canada doesn't mean you can do whatever the hell you want by demanding a free area/state like Khalistan and promoting illegal activities across the world.\n\nAs an Indian, I'm with Justin Trudeau, after as a Canadian prime minister, it is his responsibility to take care of his citizens. Enough is enough these people have to be deported if they don't have proper Visa/qualifications for the task they are up to. Hypocrisy at its peak, going to canada for doing crap and wasting the resources, time and money.

I'm in the production/entertainment industry and its filled with foreigners, mainly europe/africa. Both of these groups are getting the majority of the work at a lower cost for the employer, which makes it very difficult for a citizen to even get their foot in the door. The other thing is that both of these groups show signs of some kind of infection, they have bright pink spots all over. Health and safety is not even a concern anymore?

No housing \nNo affordable rent in canada \nNo jobs! \nNo saving after 17 years \nNo doctors \nYou need to have daddy's business to be able to live \nNo one will help you \n5 months i'm looking for job and i'm canadian citizen \nSince 2007/2008 very hard to live and save and live normally \n\nDiplomas experience nothings is working \n\nThere is no good life

Adjusted lol. You mean needs to be dialed waaaaay back, down to zero. Maybe let actual citizens work these jobs… isn’t that a crazy idea?!? I’m sorry that means employers can’t greedily pocket more money for themselves, and they’d actually have to pay citizens a livable wage and benefits… oh nooo…. lol guess their families will only be able to go on 5 vacations a year, instead of their usual 15. Poor employers and corporations…

At the end of the day the main issue is the Government used Indian students to supplement the economy at the expense of the Canadian citizens. Now in 2024 the Trudeau liberals still refuse to pause it because of the economic impact it will have on their corporate friends and the schools. They also subsidize immigrant students which incentivises businesses to only hire Indian students. Canadians can't find affordable housing or a minimum wage job and Indians are paying the price. I feel bad saying it because I'm not a racist but I don't want anymore Indians, or any immigrants at all, here unless they fill a vital need in the economy. We simply no longer have the housing or jobs and it's as simple as that. Enough is enough.

I'm sorry, but being persecuted somewhere else in the world shouldn't qualify you for Canadian citizenship. To be a Canadian citizen you should be a good fit with the rest of Canada (and existing Canadians should get to decide how that works). Also, it needn't be said, but how do we know this man is even telling the truth? Any guy can say that he craves intimate physical contact with other guys. It's just words.

They are creating problems by themselves, I’m a German left country because low wages. Why they don’t build their own people. Sad to say very soon Germany loosing their own citizens ❤?

I'm in a similar situation. As a Canadian citizen who recently lost my job, I'm unable to apply for EI, and my only option seems to be leaving the country. It's incredibly challenging to find a job and make a living in Toronto or in Canada in general right now.

Sounds like a fantastic opportunity! I'm 40 now, British citizen, been working in the ESL/IELTS Industry for a few years. Also learning website development. So I'm going to give it a try... Looking for somewhere to settle. SO if I make it, I'll invite you for a 'thank you' coffee :)\n\nBtw.. Once you have been accepted and receive an offer of employment, what must you provide regarding the visa? Proof of funds, IELTS test taken? TIA!

Not fair to american citizens, Canadians. I'm glad you're showing this.

Do whatever is best for you and there is no reason to feel sad about it. There are many exciting opportunities out there. I left the US a long time ago for many of the same reasons and am way better off now. I'm now a citizen in the country I moved to and can't really see myself going back to the US. It's an adventure for sure. Enjoy it!

Canada ?? don’t go the same way as my home country ( England ) is going .\n\nI’m a Britisher living in Canada ?? and a Canadian citizen.

I'm a US citizen, and I've been fortunate to have traveled to 166 countries. There are 3 countries that I can, and do see myself living in. 3 Vietnam, 2 Spain, and hand down #1 Thailand

I wish you the best of luck and hope you get your visa to make your next move! I am born and raised in Victoria, BC Canada as a Canadian citizen at birth. Since my mother was German when I was born, I just recently found out that I'm also a German citizen from birth through descent through my mother. I've been living here in the US since high school when I moved from Victoria to Tucson, Arizona. I eventually got my US green card (permanent residency. I then moved to Madison, Wisconsin and became a US Citizen. At this point, I am a dual US and Canadian citizen in addition to being German citizen as well. I am applying for my confirmation of German citizenship through the German consulate in Chicago which would then allow me to obtain a German passport for access to live and work freely in EU and Schengen countries. I went to The Netherlands last January and I really feel in love with the Dutch culture and lifestyle. I am planning on spending at least a few years there as soon as I get my German passport. \nMy relatives in Canada keep telling me how lucky I am to be a US Citizen as they all say how terrible the situation has become in Canada. I am surprised since I've always considered Canada to be one of the top places to live in the world. I haven't lived in Canada for a long time and I've been doing relatively good here in the USA. I enjoy the US overall but we definitely have our share of issues here as well.\nAnyhow .... I wish you the best on your next location.

Been following your channel since the 'Dating Beyond Borders' Vid...8 years ago ... The story you tell is exactly the same for many of us here in the UK now. The country I grew up in has gone to complete ratshit in the past 20 years. I had the opportunity to become a Canadian citizen 10 years ago through marriage, but never went through with it. In hindsight I'm so glad I didn't move to Ontario now thanks to the way Canada is governed. \nI put money on you moving to Thailand ? as its quite easy for 'Digital Nomads'...... \nMe, I think I'll stay in the UK and go down with the ship. ?

I'm a dual UK/Canadian citizen and passport holder and have always planned to move to Canada. It seems to be on the same level as the UK now, though, so there's really not much point. I've left and gone to Cyprus.

I'm an EU citizen (based outside) and I'd love to move to Germany, but the state of the job market means I can't get a job because everyone expects unicorns.\nI'm also afraid I won't be able to find an apartment there because I don't speak German and I've got to be incredibly lucky even if I do.

I think all things are possible when you are young and healthy. As someone with an unexpected chronic disease that showed up in my 40s I'm on immunosuppressants that are very costly. Thank God the gov't here covers them. With treatments every 6 weeks I have no freedom to leave. While that's taken care of, access to a family doctor or emergency care is horrible. Waiting a month for a doctors appt or having to spend 10 hours in emergency is not okay in a developed country.\n As a citizen you have Canada as a safety net, so its no big deal if you move and don't like it. I'm not sure where is safe in the world right now. A lot of people moved to Equador, and then boom the violence got out of control. Just my thoughts on things.

That's fucked up and it makes really freaking mad. I worked so many years and over times for what. I got chronicly ill didn't work for 3 years and got SSI and I don't even get $900 dollars. Migrants just walk over and get $1,400 WTF I'm a citizen who came here legally and paid my way ? I have nothing against migrants but darn you get all those benefits why then give them so much money. They need to do what Canada does with migrants. No wonder the migrants there eventually work and have stability. The USA needs to take a class on this.

This is great Canada. I'm so happy you are finally stopping the influx of usage to the Canadian citizens. These people coming into our countries must fight in their own countries to fix their own problems instead of using us all. The world is now over populated. We don't need more polluting, drawing, destroying, and over breeding.

As a Canadian citizen, I’m interrogated trying to re enter Canada if I travel, told to pay duty, taxes on any purchases.\nThese illegal immigrants walk right on in, get put up in a hotel, given room service meals and a govt cheque in the works.\nWe are punished just for being Canadian citizens

I’m a working senior citizen Canadian born and raised in BC I’m on the verge of homelessness due to high rental prices and then I look around and immigrants have more than me ??‍♀️

This video is an example of a Canadian government focused on taking better care of immigrants than it's own citizens. But it's true.. i can't go to a park or have picnic in a park in my neighborhood nor any park in 50km radius from where i live that not filled with Indians occupying practically all the tables, and i don't even live in Brampton. I'm not racist or prejudiced being a Canadian born of immigrant descent, but when i see this i cannot help but feel resentful. I'm tryng hard not to be.

I'm from Montréal, Québec and I don’t even have the benefits listed for migrants to NYC as a Canadian citizen resident of Québec.\n\nThank you New York for relieving us and taking them in charge!

As a Canadian I'm sick and tired of feeling like a second class citizen in my own Country, multiculturalism is an absolute failure just like trudeau

As a Canadian citizen, I'm struggling to find employment due to many immigrant students occupying our positions, including entry level positions \nThis is huge insecure government narssistic

No offense we need to start defending our border if u know what I'm saying this is nothing short of an invasion a war none citizens are not allowed so it's war rite there attacking our country plain and simple

As a Canadian citizen, I’m sorry our lousy government is allowing this illegal immigration into our country and then yours.\nCanadian citizens do not approve of any of this, it’s sadly beyond our control, until the next election.\nOur WEF controlled PM and his cohorts.

Hey, this video was straight to the point and informative! Thank you for this.. I’m a UK citizen planning on moving to Canada and I’m in the Marketing, Social Media and Creative field. Do you know any good recruitment agencies for this? ?

I'm a Canadian citizen. And I think it's the time when Canadian & US governments must think to build a border wall on the Northern border. I hate these illegal Aliens sneaking in Canada & then in the US. Offcours these illegal immigrants are being a reason for damaging the local labor market wages. And are continuous burden on Both countries economy & tax payers. I see our governments look extremely helpless in dealing with this growing issue. I wish Donald Trump would become the US next president. No doubt he will adapt to the serious measures to stop these illegal buggers.

Disingenuous journalism.\n\nAnti-immigration is a binary term, and you’re using it to characterize anyone who is critical of a terribly implemented set of immigration policies that are resulting in bad outcomes for both the new immigrants and current citizens.\n\nSure, the issue isn’t with immigration… the lack of infrastructure and services and housing is the problem. This doesn’t mean reduction of immigration numbers isn’t a part of the solution. It’s common sense that if I only have enough food and space for 8 people then I’m not inviting 20 to my party…. The issue isn’t with get-togethers the solution is to only invite 8 until I can accommodate 20. \n\nSo stop being dense about this.

I'm an immigrant. Do you guys know how much I paid for my wife's college? 40k dollars. Do you guys know how much Imy wife and I pay in taxes? Almost 3k a month to the government. The problem isn't immigrants. If there were no immigrants, who would pay for citizens' college? Or are you guys going to start paying 40k or the full amount?

I always thought we should pay Mexicans to stay in Mexico and make Mexico great. Instead of us paying for everything under the sun for them in dollars, we could have paid them in pesos to build housing, rec centers, community centers, churches, hospitals, roads, etc .. .. I'm all for helping people, and being charitable. I don't mind helping people but for God's sake we don't spend 80 million on a city budget for helping the homeless. Yet we roll out the red carpet for those who aren't here legally. You citizen Joe/Jane in America have to follow the rules, yet groups, orhers, etc DON'T?!? BS.

I arrived in 2012 originally from Australia. I’m now a citizen and I learned a trade here too. I’m on a decent wage and I can’t keep up and can’t imagine I’ll ever own my own home here. We’re not against immigration but it needs to be slowed dramatically by about 90% for a few years. I’m being forced back to Australia to seek financial help from my family to hopefully purchase a property back there. The Canadian dream is dead and there’s also to many Indians here.

Why? You have to ask when the only ppl you see working are Indian “students”? Canadian citizens get passed over because “students “ wages are subsidized up to 70%. Employers are making a killing while Canadians are hitting the soup kitchens. I’m putting quotation around student because their average age is .. 35

I'm sure the voters are pleased and they will vote the same politicians again and again and again.....and again. I cannot shed a tear for the NY citizens. It's what they willingly chose! I didn't make that choice for them! I mean, if I say I'm a patriot, I'm far right, If I say I'm against immigration, I'm far right, if I say, don't let the border unchecked and respect the laws, I'm far right or worse....a nazi.

I’ve been American my whole life and I’m struggling so bad with bills and Child support and all the other bullshit I have to pay but then these illegal come over here and they just give them money. Food stamps a place to live while I’m suffering as an American citizen. It’s so F U

Cut Ny funds off for them. I’m American and they are trying to cut my social security saying it’s not enough money in a few years but giving them money. No way, that’s not right for the senior citizens here. WTH.

I cant believe there are still Canadians who fall for this idiot. I'm convinced my fellow citizens literally dont care if this country burns to ashes

I’m a US citizen and I want to move to NY for the free shit. Like this comment if you would like to see that journey filmed and released on YouTube. Exposing all the bs that encompasses this crisis.

I'M EXTREMELY HURT YET SUPER ANGRY BECAUSE I'M WAITING FOR MY HUSBAND'S VISA AND IT WILL BE 3 YRS THIS SEPTEMBER 8TH, SINCE MY HUSBAND'S VISA INTERVIEW WAS ON SEPTEMBER 8TH, 2021. WE'RE MARRIED OVER 6 YRS ALREADY. I HAVE TO PROVE THAT I CAN SUPPORT MY HUSBAND, SHOW MY TAXES, GO ABOVE THE FINANCIAL LIMIT, PAY MEDICAL EXAM, POLICE RECORDS, ALL THE LEGAL WAY. THEN IN THE OTHER HAND, I; AS A TAX PAYER, I'M PAYING FOR THESE ILLEGALS FOOD, SHELTER, MEDICAL, ETC. \nBEING AN AMERICAN CITIZEN I FEEL LESS THAN A ROACH AND FEEL ABANDONED WITH MY RIGHTS BEING VIOLATED. SO MUCH INJUSTICE TO THE LEGALS VS. THE ILLEGALS. ??????????????????

Wait people with no papers can get into Canada but I can’t go to Canada without a passport because I’m an American citizen whaaat

United States citizens cannot find housing and they allowed us to keep going on and on cuz why why you look stupid Kamala I have not heard horse face lately but it made me laugh even though I can't stand Trump what did she ever do for me I'm going to be homeless

This is stupid. You can come here with nothing to offer and we pay you 1400 a month and feed and house you. While chicago American citizens get turned away. I’m voting trump now.

I’m all for helping others, but there has to be a limit at some point. It’s unfair that actual citizens can’t even receive the things that immigrants are receiving and the fact that they have to fight twice as hard just to get half of what immigrants are getting.

Mmm, typical political movement. elections are around the corner, so I'm not surprised. Ihe words of president Bukele: you say you have problems at the border many migrating to the u.s. nothing has been done in the past 30+ years and nothing will happen or work. If countries would have a stable economy, citizens wouldn't migrate, and families wouldn't be separated. No president has any control over the border. No republican or Democrat

I'm born and raised just outside of Buffalo, NY. A resident of Erie County. I can't believe these illegal immigrants get Free Healthcare & myself a citizen cannot afford proper Healthcare. It's disgusting.
