Loved it but livid seeing why Canadian economist aren't alarmed yet ?

This is very surface-level analysis. If you want to dive into why Canada's economy is so uncompetitive you have to look at its constitutional framework. Inter-provincial trade is more difficult in Canada compared to Trade in the states or the EU because NAFTA, and the EU trade agreement are more efficient compared to inter-provincial trade frameworks the senate estimates these barriers cost the economy $150b in GDP per year. By comparison, Australia with a similar constitutional structure to Canada managed to harmonize many of its inter-state/ territory regulations leading to increased GDP growth and has long outperformed the Canadian economy. Furthermore, Canada's indigenous rights framework is far to restrictive in terms of allowing the governments to actually govern. This has cost us billions in FDI in projects tossed out by the courts and projects that will simply never be considered due to political and regulatory risks. \n\nThat said, if Canada wanted to improve this situation without meddling in the constitution one thing they can do is to allow housing to catch up to the population. We have the fewest number of dwelling per capita in the G7 in the highest population growth in the G7. This is a recipe for a housing shortage which ensures that a lot of capital will flow into the housing sector simply because it offers promising returns relative to the risk of operating a business. I believe Canada grew by over 1,000,000 residents in 2022 however we had 240,000 housing starts (4 residents per dwelling) and average house size here is 2.51 residents per dwelling. \n\nThat disconnect between housing starts (see regulatory framework above as to why we can't build enough houses) will just cause more capital to flow to the sectors making the business investment environment worse.

See how much you'll pay in taxes in each of the Canadian provinces:\nhttps://youtu.be/s0d0hmUn4pQ

So like they just giving their country to the cartels? Gonna be an empty country. Sad to see

Wow these comments are funny theses are people who clearly don’t understand what’s it like to live in a third world country, I thought the “American Dream” was still a thing ig not, and don’t go say “well they should just get in the right way” bc if u says that u clearly don’t understand how it work you need upwards of 8,000 dollars to even try to get in and a good ass lawyer, who tf has that much money and a good lawyer when ur in a this world country. Sad to see so many “Americans” saying stop letting them in, the “American Dream” has really died sad. Keep living ur comfortable lives tho and saying thing you know little ab ??

What does she mean why we seeing this your president told them they can come you forgot

When Canadians feel ashamed to exploit their biggest asset, oil... this was bound to happen. Meanwhile, world produces what Canada does not, ... so world sees Canadians as potatoheads.

Why TF do I see some of those ppl laughing?!

Very true. The problem that Canada has is there is getting to be a large portion of people that have taken our wealth for granted. This generation has forgotten how wealth is created, so much so that when any projects are proposed there is automatic opposition to them. And the opposition is given so much credibility that many projects never see the light of day. Canadians are the kings of missed opportunities.

you sound pretty privileged. maybe visiting and living in 3rd world / developing countries that are actually ugly, where citizens don''t see any public or social infrastructure which reflects the taxes or unemployment and diseases are high due to poverty and bad governance may make you more appreciative

As long as a Demorat is the president this will continue. Remember these aren't the smartest people from those countries trying to break in. They will all try to get some sort of intitlement after they get here. We can't take care of our own citizens now so I see it getting worse for Americans in the future. This should prove to all Americans that the government doesn't care about you at all !!!!!!!!!!!

We see this because the attack on the cartels now they dont have the wealth anymore

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.

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

I’m from Juárez, and to be honest, I’m really tired of seeing this, thanks to them we are having lot of trouble on the city. I would like for they to get deported back to Venezuela but Mexico won’t do nothing about it, I’m hoping that USA at least can help us to get them deported back to Venezuela.

What the bleeding hearts fail to see or understand is these people do not speak English, they do not have a grade 3 education - they can not compete in the job market in the USA because they do not have the skills needed to qualify...\nBy allowing in illegals and encouraging this behavior, we are making criminals out of every one of them...\nJust what do you think will happen when they can not find a job? They still have to survive!! \nBy allowing them entry to an open market they have not the skills to be a part of, we are making criminals out of everyone of them.\nIt's a known fact people revert to the skills they have to make ends meet...\nIt's not a kindness, it's a death trap or jail sentence which costs tax payers money...when will the bleeding hearts ever learn?

How did they get passed all the other countries? I know some of them got kidnapped by the cartels in Mexico. I'm a Mexican American and this pisses me off seeing a bunch of Venezuelans at our border trying to force their way in having a pity party. It's disrespectful. Fix your own country for your future generations.!

I’ve been seeing this since October 2018 and no one stops the invasion into our country!

You're seeing is because the Democrats are allowing it ISO is your new president

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

Nothing to see here everything‘s A-OK there is no border crisis?

All I see is people running from countries without a Bill of Rights to one that does.

See this is what trump tried to prevent

“Why are we seeing this right now?” Bruh, conservatives have been warning about the border issue and trying to get congress to address it for a while. CNN knew about it too. Don’t play dumb. It was only a matter of time

This is when you use rubber bullets and gas. They know Biden and his woke pals are sweet so they're trying us. We really need a real wall to keep these POS people out. What's funny is they come here and act like they're so proud of their homeland. Thanks Obama for the coup in Venezuela that led to this shit. I mean if no one sees that the government needs to be flushed of all the POS reps that are literally working to hasten the demise of our country. All to fulfill some fake prophesy

Nothing to see here ya bigots! ?-demonRats hell bent on the total destruction of America.

It’s really sad that people see no future or safety where they are at. They’re willing to flee on foot with children and little else to walk hundreds of miles just to hopefully make their kids lives better. There has got to be a better way to help these people. I don’t know the answers but I also don’t get paid to know them. As someone who has sympathy for my brothers and sisters no matter where they were born this just hurts my heart.

I hope everyone is safe, this is really stupid but I understand the desperation these people must be in to be willing to risk their lives and some with small children with them. It’s heartbreaking and I’m sorry this happening. I’m American but I’m a human being first before anything and this sad to see

You can see the hurt on the officers faces for having to turn them away. I pray these people find sanctuary.

Sorry stay in your country and fix it.\nI see people with decent clothes that look well fed.\nI've seen children in African countries that are emaciated.

Where on earth all these people gonna go we having food crisis. And now this, men who are desperate do evil things lord help us. All I see now is increasing violence.

According to sleepy joe ( nothing to see here ) ???????????????

Reality. Really. Maga right. Let's see unemployment numbers down nation wide since Trump took office. Foreclosures another all time low. Employment is up. Programs that Trump and his republican mates took away to help now not only back in firm place but helping Americans who weren't wealthy and paying for it are now successfully employed, own their homes and contribute fairly with appropriate taxes. People can't find housing??? Programs are out there for those who had foreclosure on them because of Trump's unyielding to constantly tax those not making six digits. Also our country lost over one million innocent men,women, children and infants because Trump REFUSED to acknowledge COVID. Care to speculate how many of them were republicans thinking how could I of believed him??? One father stated after burying his wife who died from it said this. We believed him then my wife of fifty years contracted it and died quickly and our kids who like us who believed him were told had this been taken seriously in the beginning it would of never become this severe. They became democrats.

I can’t walk there and I would love to see a Group of Americans walk there . Enjoy the walk is all I can say. And all the democrats can thank their leaders who they voted in…

Why are they coming here to the most racist country on earth sad reality is that we're not as racist as democrats paint us to be imagine being a self hating American and hating yourself and then you see this immigrants wanting to come here to we're there hated by everyone america is not racist is your propaganda machine

All my family members migrating here all keep saying the same thing. That Biden had offered them homes and money every month. They truly beleive is why they are able to. I asked them what about all the others who were waiting to get citizenship seeing all these other people go 1st. As usual no response.

All corrupt governments working together. We still have not recovered from the Ukrainians and others just given all of America’s benefits. They sent them to Watts and Compton to suck the Homeless resources and get 100’s thousands that and average American will never see at once in their lifetime. The people of the world must realize that they are the power and must work in their own countries to get it right or the cancer grows stronger every generation.

No we can tell you what happened with member that basketball that they nicely they did it was their marketing guy then the next thing they know they got hit over the floods hurricanes and earthquakes and stuff. Yeah see when you go around marking identity a god guess what you brought that on yourself period you getting high but statue of God looking over your whole country and then you sit up there and mark them send it you gonna start wishing it doesn't and this what God took his words very seriously period now wipe it to all those people they start pushing up now everybody want to start coming through. I have no issues with Venezuela. But at some point you have to be able to rise up and guess whatever tyranny your government is doing. But due to the United States and Venezuela have a history. And we have caused some some other time damages that's done in Venezuela. If you need to assist not take over where the people is more comfortable notice I said the people not the government cuz we shouldn't be taking over the government what happened to people people the people themselves can re-establish the government how they wanted to be what best fit them

The US and Mexico. Gotta come up with a massive immigration reform. Like NOW! \nI'm a mexican, and I see the migrants coming through everyday. 3 days ago, a guy was yelling in my apt complex at night asking for anything since they were on their way to the US. We as mexican are tired of all the massive caravans, tired of our government allowing tens of thousands in. We grant them asylum, but they don't want to be here. They would rather go and try to make it into the US. So. I my self am from Juarez so I've grown up with immigration my entire life.

Bro I want to come there in Canada for the position of Cashier when I see the job vacancy for the post of Cashier on the Jobbank in any food restaurant or food Mart including many other Bussinesses in Canada posted on the Jobbank at that time I feel that if I will be there as a cashier in any Bussines but now I have any sponcership Letter from any Bussines but I hope that can you do the try for me from any Bussines to give me the sponcership letter. Please please please

You see the difference between black people and others. They whipped those Haitians. Black people are the most hated.

If America is such a bad place why everyone dying to be there ?\nI guess it's not as bad as people make it to be, now the Mexican government should be ashamed of its self to see all its citizens running away from them

The saddest thing is we are see governments becoming more and more repressive everywhere - including in the United States of America.

Medicare sucks! Even as a privileged white person having just moved cities not province and after 3 years and 2 cancers I still don't have access to a family doctor. Forget about any tests or diagnoses because you are told you need to have a family doctor to have access. People die of curable diseases here more than in many other developed countries. Can you see how they control medical expenses we pay for in Canada?

I don't care how much we don't have after seeing this we have to let these people in or are we not human beings anymore.? The righteous kind of human beings....

We're seeing this, because the Biden Administration makes foreigners think our borders are open. They're not doing squat to protect Americans. It's not just families trying to come in. It's the cartels & criminals as well. There are legal ways to enter and become citizens.

Your seeing this because the laws haven't been enforced. Try doing that in other countries you will get shot.

I'm trying to apply for a visitors visa for myself and I'm unable to see where to upload the imm 5257 form and family information form.Please how do I upload the imm 5257 and the family information form ? Please help

The reporter made an amazing point and didn’t realize it………..”why are we seeing this right now?” Hmmmmm idk WHY ARE WE?

I can see the kilos of fetty and coke flowing.
