I’m sure indira ghandi might have a different opinion about this so called peaceful religion.

The problem with Indian people is that despite their hard work and dreams for good, their energies are misdirected without concerns that there are laws, rules and expectations in other countries that are different then theirs. For Canada, what is hesitation to talk straight about approving student visa, where applicant don’t afford to pay for travel, full time education and living expenses at all without simultaneously working, where no appropriate jobs are possible or available at all.

Is same here in Australia too in different ways. ??

Basic rule of going abroad: select university not college. Understand difference. \nAnd more than that why Canada?

Yeah it's hard to find a job and keep the job in Canada. Even with a job that doesn't require education and anybody can do, I come across someone who is not happy with me being there and they try to find reasons why I shouldn't work there ?it happened 16 years ago when I first got into workforce and it happened not too long ago again. I was inventory clerk counting products at different stores. I believe I was an accurate counter and someone who recounted them told my manager I wasn't good. She said many of them I counted were either off or she couldn't understand my writing. And the manager had to have a talk with me. I can honestly say I was better counter than she was. And I feel very confident I was very careful with counting that day too. But she thought otherwise. I couldn't bear working with someone or some people who didn't appreciate my work or my presence there so I had to quit. It will happen again and I thought it wouldn't matter how accurate I am at counting. One of my Canadian colleagues once told me that it's okay for immigrants to live in Canada but it's not okay to work with them. I don't know if that's a fact but in my experience I have encountered some people like that along the way.

Gul lifestyle aor gul life in Canada kia aik chanel hai?qk dono blogs main immigration story different hai?aor school sistem vlog bhe different hai.aik mai ye hai k school fee nahe hai doosai mai ye btaya ja raha hai k hai???

At my university in Vancouver, masters were mostly Indian ? and even undergraduate is also like 100% International students. The difference is the school has several branches located in NJ, Canada, and the UK. I've never heard of a negative event happening though. interesting

Btw, garanty of success, of employment, doesn't exist and it's baked in the capitalism system that private enterprise and private college prioritize profits (btw, for non Canadian, education, is not subsidized). \nNow, if illegal/fraud practices are occurring, then like any Canadian, you will have to make a complaint to the police and/or take legal action (basically If you don't have money, you're F!). \n \nMaybe the Ontario government should have more stringent laws for private Colleges and recruiting agencies, like mandatory advertising for: \n\t- the required money for subsistence and the low likelihood of finding a good job that will enable students to work; \n\t- the % failure, homelessness, suicide,... \n\t- mental and social stress, differences,... \n \nMaybe Canada could: \n\t- be more stringent with student visa and have a written acknowledgement that states all the risks and pitfalls. \n\t- Guive visa only if the recruiting was done through accredited agencies \n\t- Do official advertisements in India about the risks and requirements of studying abroad. \n \nMaybe a full capitalism society is not moral, but it's the system we decided to live in.

I can't imagine moving to a different country to get away from the problems and difficulties you grew up with, only to bring them with you.

74 yrs to pay 1 yr tution seems exaggerated......people earning enough in India now.....may b it wud take 4-6 yrs of individual persons earnings..... i ve Aus PR but in dilemma if i shud go Aus coz there ain't much difference in what I wud save after going to Aus.

Ha Canada government know all . Let them fool the Asia. It was done to white see the difference

This is what happens when people live in La La Land instead of living in the reality. Living in a fairy tale in a way that not even this and other Fifth State documentaries would wake them up. The difference between the first and fifth world. Build your countries, your universities, prosper and grow. Stop living in fairy tales! It sounds harsh but I'd rather give it to you straight.

Another big difference: it is much more difficult to make friends in Canada. Happy Hanukkah for you, too! Greetings from Israel.

Most of these problems are not just Canadian problems but are immigrant problems and some are just developed nations problems , most people will face them in every country they go to!! The uk, us, Australia mention others are all expensive with just a 0.4 difference! Getting a Canadian passport and moving to another country which is not your native country will solve nothing and it’s not easy to move to a new country unless you have someone to sponsor you!! A Canadian passport will not allow you to work in the US or UK you will need sponsorship for a visa _ all it offers is a free visit visa for about 6 months I guess but not allowed to work! Work visas are complicated and depend more on skills than passport you hold! As a US citizen I can’t work in Canada visa free I can only visit_ the same with Canadians coming to the US or the UK ! \nFor the weather I feel you! We’re lucky In the US cos every type of weather you want you can get it without sacrificing living in a big city But other problems are quite similar everywhere! You have to walk around them and create ways to enjoy the beauty your country has to offer! Running away from from a country your a citizen of cos of loneliness or boredom is not a solution especially when you moving to a country your not even a resident of! Cos establishing residence is never easy unless you have a community there already! Otherwise it will be worse than where your running from!

Cannot believe this goes on in Canada... I thought differently about the college situation until watching this. Misleading people into living in and paying for these situations is reprehensible. Whoever plays a part in taking advantage of these students is disgusting.

As a former international student in Canada who’s gone through all of that; the harsh winters, super high tuition, homesickness, employment uncertainty.. \nmy advice, RESEARCH BEFORE YOU COME TO CANADA. Getting here is easy, staying here and thriving is a whole different story.\nYou will have to work doubly hard, adapt quickly, have a fortitude of steel, and please TAKE CARE OF YOUR PHYSICAL AND MENTAL HEALTH.\nTo those thinking of going through this journey, all the best to you.

Its humble request read different surah of quran and reactions weekly please.

I am transgender and out, basically broke the relationship with my family. I’m living alone in the US as an international student (CN citizen) and suffering from the living cost and tuition even though I have a part-time job, and I’m gonna lose it soon because I have to change my visa to a student visa that does not allow me to work outside of campus. I am thinking about transferring to a Canadian university because I’m poor and lonely without family anyway (lol), and I just can’t resist the temptation of starting my life again in a different place while healing my trauma. Moreover, it’s more immigrant-friendly (note I am still going through a visa change in the US), maybe I will not be in the daily fear of having to go back to China, where is definitely not trans-friendly. But I’m so anxious on the other hand. What if I end up unemployed; what if I run out of money…I’m simply uncertain about how to find somewhere queer-friendly to survive with a secured shelter and money enough for food. I’m sorting everything out…please let me know if you have any similar experiences in Canada. Anything can be very helpful.

Now that this is brought to our attention, we will be more aware and help to make a difference

There is very clear discrimination against Muslims in Canada. That's a fact.\nGTA is a different story. But Canada is not GTA. GTA is in Canada.

IM READ MANY COMMENTS UNDER THIS VIDEO AND I WATCHED MANY HAVE PAIN IN ASS SPL HINDU RELIGION PPL WHYYYYYYY? \nFIRST ACCORDING TO THAT ALL SCUM THEY NEVER KNOW DIFFERENT BETWEEN KNIFE AND KIRPAAN AND SECOND THIS IS AMERICA ..WORLD No-1 Country … This not like india not like MODI BLOODIEST COUNTRY.\nINDIAN PM AND RSS SAID ONE NATION N ONE FLAG MEAN HI MAKE A HINDU ALL OTHER COMMUNITY WITH HIS POWER…bt IN USA NOT LIKE THAT .. they gave lot freedom to everyone doesn’t matter who they are ? country success of all americans ppl dream and habit..In LAST TOLD TO ALL MODI SCUM ALL MODI SHIT FUCKkkOFF ……salo tum logo ki koi gaaand bhi nai marta poori duniya me …

Different states or countries Different rules......so no worry.

Dude, please change with time. The times were different then

Try South Africa ?? Village and city cultures are all different so get a feel before settling permanently.

I get it this is a issue of religious sensitivity. I’m from Canada and we cannot open carry knives or firearms it’s against the law, even pepper spray is illegal. In the USA the law differs from state to state and schools and universities have their own policies. Usually you can get permission to carry a kripan in school if the blade is not sharp and it’s hidden under clothing. Schools are always understanding and allow it. Sikh or not, religious reason or not, if you openly carry a knife strapped to your chest to a crowded university like the guy in the video did some one is going to call the cops on you. Have some common sense. Yes, religion is a right but it also comes with responsibility.

Good move to come to Canada.\nEvery thing is so cheep...\nWhen you see the price of homes, or 3 large bedrooms with balcony and view on a large park, of food, price of gaz for your car ( yes your car...everyone can afford 2 or 3 cars here. And the insurance is unbelivable), the cost of education and wait until you experience our world renouned FREE healtcare system...prices are so low here, you will think there is a mistake on the sticker.\nAnd the salaries here!!!!!!! Dish washers, cab drivers, hôtel cleaners, they all make the same as our cardiologists, and their standards of living is almost the same.\nCome to Canada, and have 25 babies with different white women. They will be so surprised to see a black man IN PERSON.\nThey only know Denxel Washington, you see...

He’s in another country, different law, different habits, different mentality. Why other cultures come to Europe or USA always demanding to respect their culture? It should be the other way around. He can wear his ritual knife but hide it because in our culture it’s dangerous object and most people are ignorant toward religions. He’s wearing a western T-shirt that means he’s flexible, he could hide it.

Racism was,is, always there..interaction of humans with different color,look,belief height and beauty, forming one clan does bring some sort of racism..

America is full of people from different countries. But I will tell us best immigrants are from Asia. Who work hard and contribute to the society.....these are facts issued by Washington post.....

I know that the actions seen out here in the video is kind of an extrem, but I believe whatever measures were taken it was for the welfare of keeping everybody safe in which my Sikh brother had no bad intentions but it was all an honest mistake.  According to my understanding he could've worn the Kripan under his T-shirt.. no disrespect to nobody but I'm here with all my Love and Respect to all.. \nAnd He being out of India.. people might have heard or know about Sikhism but respectively being in a totally different country it'll be a cultural shock to some of its fellow country's residents and that too he is in an educational environment or zone where a lot of unfortunate events had occur in the past few years due to violence.. so taking these reasons and unfortunate incidents under consideration.. our dear Sikh brother did not do anything wrong in openly carrying a Kripan (knife) for it is his cultural right and had gone some kind of a rituals in order to carry a Kripan for self-defense. But people will still feel some kind of uneasiness when it comes to weapons seen in and around educational area or zones. \nSo whatever measures had been taken for the safty of all.. especially by the security as he was doing his job by understanding the situation. No heard feeling to nobody but I just wanted to get my point across regarding this incident. N I know my Sikh brothers n sisters will definitely come to an agreement of understanding in what I'm trying to say..

Your religion doesn't matter in a different country it's the law of the country

I live in india and i havent seen any of my sikh friends in schools, colleges and even in my work place carrying a kirpan or knife, i have seen only nihangs or sikh priest carrying them. I think when you move to a foreign land you tend to show your identity aggressively to be different, even muslims in western countries are more radical than here.

People carry guns and shoot innocent people who are may be from the same religion. But police was afraid of this boy whose religious beliefs are different and to carry a knife. ?and they say USA is the ambassador of human rights?for every religion? Dude in india,sikhs can also carry big swords. No one bother them. And how many times you heard about shooting in public place in India?funny . ?

I live in the US and I will say there is no difference between both US n Canada

When you are born and raise as a Montreal and you visited Canada its obvious we are the historical heart of the country and very different because of the French part of it but we are on the continent of America let's not forget , cest la vie

How is this any different from carrying around a pocket knife

Don't leave your territory your country. It's right in context to other countries. If you go to different nation it's their rules their land. For example Muslim nations don't allow other religions and practices in their territory while they do all they want in different countries. You can't have a citizenship in middle eastern countries and half of the middle eastern people are American now. Rules are equal for all, don't get offended though.

He's in a different country and HAS TO follow their rules and customs. Can't do the kisan andolan there ?

If you want wear all your religious items for all the time, why do you have to leave the where this is permitted. Sir, that knife is a religious symbol only to you, it is weapon for others in a different country, something threatening.

The pure sign of illiteracy about different religions and cultures. \n\nShould happen again!!

How can a police officer be so uneducated in 2022? Don't they teach them about all the different types of religions in the world. Unbelievable how this officer did this.

If he is khalistani.... No comment. We see them as terrorists. If normal Sikh, then they should not carry that knife openly. That thing must not be revealed. We all know it's part of tradition but you never show it openly in public especially in non indian area. They have the right to assume, and investigate because of cultural differences. Peace. Rot in hell if khalistani.

The police did the right thing. He can wear that and move around in India but USA is a different country with a different set of rules.

We are in different world right now old religion doesn't fit in thos world. If you want to practice your religion, that's fine but do it within your community and leave others who don't believe in this.

Police needs to be educated about different religious beliefs and student was just sitting in a library.

The ignorance of the Americans are mind blowing... research a bit more about the world...there are other people existing as well..who are different in many senses.

A weapon is a weapon. No different then a fat white dude with a sword

No one arrests in India whenever they want a different country, and there is discrimination against them abroad (Pakistan, Taliban, US), whenever they like that country.

South American have drug culture \nCanada has weed culture \nChinese have monkey and snake eating culture \n\nThat doesn’t mean they come to India and do this all \n\nReligion is different and law are different \nIf someone murder or any incident happen directly it will be blame to this man for no reason and it will directly make whole Indians as negatively

Do Sikh students carry the Kirpan in colleges in different states of India?
