Yup. The Biden admin told Venezuelans and Cubans that they are not welcomed here. Meanwhile, cartels are... I wonder why...\n\nAnd in the meantime, veterans are left without homes to allow illegal immigrants space in hotels, Americans can't afford higher education, let alone a house in many instances, and property is being bought En masse by people like Gates and companies like Blackrock...\n\nDo we even matter? Do we, the people that live here, legal immigrants, born in America, matter? Do we? CNN why don't you make that question for us?

Many think it's ok for them all to just be able to walk into our country. I wonder how they would react if this was happening at their border.

Wow, spokesperson wonders why this is happening -- c'mon you stupid b*tch, think about who's in charge of our country. This is being done intentionally by our current administration. People always think US is the place to be, maybe for immigrants doing it legally. I live in Florida and there are American mothers and fathers raising their kids in tents in the woods here because they can't afford to buy or rent a home, despite both of them working full time. Yet, these anarchists are coming in and getting benefits asap -- homes, food stamps, medical care etc.... Damn shame what our country has turned into. Lastly, it's a shame because there are so many immigrants here trying to do the right thing.

As a Venezuelan who migrated and still travels in the proper ways I can surely say many there want true help. Venezuela is insane compared to what you people even live whit, best work you can get there will make you up to 90-120 bucks a month, no food in supermarkets, some insanely expensive which will make you choose between buy bread or tuna and rice for a whole month ( imagine not being able to eat your favorite meats or prefered food FOR MONTHS, EVEN SOME YEARS) , if you are a professional or educated of course the opportunity grows up but not in a socialist country. as we know you can be a socialist in a capitalist system but not the opposite and this is a fact. Those people are genuinely scared with no home back in their country as for many houses and private properties have been removed with force, some of you sure will be wondering how or why not to follow the main curse to migrate? I had to spend 3 days sleeping on a huge queue with many other people also sleeping in the streets to get our passport(that's was the easy part, 4 years to get the date to finally get that fucker passport.), something so simply done in other countries which such ease, not to mention the whole cost for a passport (I knew people who paid aroundn 700usd to get it asap). \n\nPlease don't pitty these people nor hate on any inmigrants, some families there really wish for a future, and again as someone who had the opportunity to do my papers. We do not wish this upon no body. The pain in the hunger, the fact the money from your country is so little valued that even video game money has way more worth.\n\nIt's a very scary place which we are trying to genuinely scape from.\n\nHopefully for my brothers and sisters from the states try to understand, hopefully these people at some point will need to understand that doing things out of fear will not get them far. Again a very very scary situation.

look at some of them smiling while the chaos is going on and then democrats wonder why many dont want them here

Wonder how many of these people will be put into slave labor in US factories. Need to pay those traffickers their debts.

I wonder how much of this could be resolved if we decided to pull back senseless embargoes that aren’t achieving policy objectives. Let Venezuelans and Cubans, for example, rule their nations as they wish and stop punishing them for regimes not politically aligned with the USA. It’s this bs that people like Putin use to justify their injustices abroad given that the USA insistes on a global rules-based order in which she alone sets the rules. Many, not all of, these people wanting to cross the border are coming to people who can house them. Many have family already in the USA. Besides, we are seeing the chickens coming home to roost after years of failed US intervention in Central and South America. Smell the historical facts; wake up America.

I wonder how many citizens it would take to hault this invasion? How many citizens would it take to put an end to this Communist Obiden regime?\nI wonder how many people within our military would help defend the USA against this terrorist regime and every damn democrat domestic terrorist within the USA?\n\nOur government is way to big with to much power. And with a huge government comes the erosion of our constitution and our constitutional rights and freedoms.

My neighbors are illegal immigrants with 7 cars. I wonder how many Americans can’t find housing because of them. They need to go back.

I wonder how many democrats Now want the wall?

America and Europe will go interfere in other countries, sanction countries and destroy their economies through embargoes, forcing regime changes. These are the results. Let them in. Ever wondered why many countries are starting to run away from the dollar and swift system.

Just wondering how many cartel members were trying to sneak with the crowd that day.

The Govt is not stable and we have never experienced such a concentration of power in the PM’s office, the growing number of controversies in this office and such division caused by this office. No wonder many Canadians are leaving. We have one more opportunity (2025) to correct the course of this nation. ??

Is anyone really wondering why the sudden influx of Chinese illegal aliens? With all the dealings Biden has with China , all the money paid to Biden's from China over the years and all the farm land China has been purchasing around the country. All these countries sending thousands of their people giving explicit instructions on how to invade, many countries sending their criminals to the US to cross at the border. Those countries are strategically placing their cells for a major event and hostile takeover.

I’m happy I watched this because I have been wondering about this depression wave that is in this country if I was the only one feeling it. All these points are valid. Don’t get me wrong canada is a beautiful place and give you access to learning and living with many different cultures which one of the things I love. But all these points these ladies stated just prove that I wasn’t just overthinking. Sometimes this place feels like an open prison tbh, specially Quebec which is the highest taxed province. It’s literally a life of work, pay your bills, feed yourself and work again. 2weeks vacation in a year of work, with 8 off days a month, isn’t enough for the brain and well being of someone. One find themselves doing everything under pressure because of the trauma that many jobs have created. People will walk under a storm, rain, thunder, you name it! just so they can earn that 130 a day.(using the minimum wage,). The gouvernement does it best to put all these programs in place, but no one want to always feel like your life is being controlled because you need a 1000$ check every month. People get tired of this dependency as well. The whole is thing is just depressing ?

Wonder how many killers and rapists made it in during the rush not saying they all are but nefoirus people use events like this to get in

Wonder how many drug mules and criminals were in that crowd

This is outrageous, get back to your own country, there's already enough damn people in America already,\nNeed that wall finished with huge gates at the entrance,\nJust wonder how many rapist Mexican men there are in that lot

This is a planned invasion. Ever wonder how many foreign nationals are in there?\nNone of them look like they just traveled hundreds of miles and are hungry, thirsty or in need of medical assistance.\nGet your head out of your rectum if you think this is good for our country.\nHang onto your hats folks, it might get ugly.

I wonder how many of them voted in their country

I wonder how many cartel members took advantage

I wonder how many of you unknowingly or knowingly voted for these policies believing this is the right thing to do. Shame on you.

And the crazy thing is, Camala Harris and dementia Joe will tell you that there is no problem at the border.\nI wonder how many jihadi's were among that crowd?

Had we ever wonder way are they running from there country wat really happening way so many people escaping or something else is coming wat it is hoping that we don't go the same way or might end up like them ???

When they find out it’s no better here I wonder why no one has told them I know many people here who have crossed this way and they all said they had no idea how america really was

There are 20k likes in support of this? wonder how many dislikes? probably tons more.

I wonder if they stopped many ukrainians trying to cross ?

i wonder how many have their chocha stuffed with fenty and coca, lola

Can't help but wonder how many drug cartels & actual terrorists are in that group of people. Borders need to step it up & start using more military before there's a group bigger than this.

are wonder how many of them are not from latinamerica

I wonder how many of those are US citizens immigrating to Canada

Stop all immigration for the next 5 years. Send them all Back.\n First we need to fix this country, people living on the streets, people living in poverty, lack of affordable housing and food. Then overhaul our social safety net programs from coast to coast to coast and get all the free loaders off it and back to work. Then we need to take a look at all the Indigenous communities living in the middle of nowhere with nothing to do, except wonder if there going to go hunting fishing or collect fire wood for the day living off government checks! Then once all that crap is fixed let's see how many legal immigrants and only legal immigrants we need to let into this country.

I wonder how many criminals try to get into here or terrorists this is from the Biden administration, Lack of not enforcing the law, For for more democratic votes, It's a slap in the face for citizens of the United States, Hard working citizens are now 2nd , Class citizens

OMG! So many YT channels slamming good old Canadian life all of a sudden. Wonder why so many all at once now? YT algorithm notwithstanding.

It has nothing to do with tolerance but making big money! Sell drugs , keep them on it! So many industries are making business with this disgusting situation, others payed to look away. Taxpayers are the idiots paying for this tragic . They should stop legalize hard drugs so people don’t end up on the street . Laws made for criminals to thrive.They don’t control the Crimes but make of gang of so supposed 40 criminals and the drug lords are making big business that’s all. City hall is so called “ Helpless “ instead of cleaning up this growing area of half dead and naked screaming people.The shops in the are under massiv attack, brake in after brake in causing massiv damage ! Broken Windows on a regular basis, cause no one in position created &well pated will take action to stops this ! Damages are payed by the shop owner , so who cares . Vancouver drug area in the middle of the Tourist area is the richest district because so many are making money with this terrible situation! Police does not even bother anymore because theses criminals on drug are protected. Maybe one night in jail and then go back to hurting the taxpayers who pays for this madness. Even the 5 star hotels near the area experienced brake ins and robbers. All of this is well supported and grows like cancer. Many young are in danger to take something while having a party because it’s easy and legal to get wasted and loose your brain, then to sit on the street or get sent back home in a black bag! and put the needle in your arm while we got work to pay for this. The fire alarm is used many times mostly just for fun from zombies in the drug houses placed absolutely wrong in the middle of a expansive shopping street by the city to good ! To whom I am wondering. A disgrace inhuman disgusting how this is handeld! Shane on you all who keep this situation I alive ! Pray to God this find an End !

In regards to food in the US, the sad part is that most amazing, wonderful food from all parts of the world can be found in strip malls, but you have to know about it because so many family restaurants never get the attention they deserve.\n\nWith that said, there are many places with an absolute lack of varied, good food.

I wonder how many masters and PhD graduates are driving Taxi and Ubers or very low paying jobs ? Just curious

meanwhile in India hate politics is the focus not development - is there any wonder so many want to run away from the country

Hahaha I am laughing at what you are saying because so many here will not say it as they are cowards but you have been speaking truth, thank you for that, Canada is often an embarassment and it makes me wonder where I should relocate to. Our Crime Minister is a criminal scumbag and should be hung for treason.

I live in a small town in Ontario with not many immigrants. I always hear people in the media or politics talking about minority groups and wonder if people from other places feel set apart. I find it a real challenge mentally to not think about it if I see someone who looks different from me…. Like it weighs on my mind, but meanwhile I just want to treat people the same… I think everyone who comes to Canada legally should feel like a part of the country. I’m tired of identity politics that separates more than brings together. It is nice to know that you feel this pressure too… I wish the media/politics would shut up so we can come together while appreciating our differences…. Instead of making people feel like they’re on the outside looking in. Hope that makes sense… I’m sure I’ll hear about it in the comments if I’m off base! ?\nLindsay in Ontario ??

I'm born and raised in quebec, I've been waiting 4 years for surgery and the mental healthcare is absolute shit, no wonder so many people self medicate with xanax and fentanyl

That's wonderful job, Mark. Keep it going. Certainly you are helping not only those kids in Canada but even the kids in India that are planning to leave for Canada, through your excellent videos.\nSure you will be remembered positive by many.

We cant afford kids so we import third world people with too many kids who are below our societal standards and further destroy our housing and medical infrastructure which is in peril. Thats a road to disaster no wonder our society is crumbling so fast.

Thank you Fifth Estate! Ok always wondered if such topics would ever be a priority! This documentary needs to be telecast in 216 languages in India. I volunteer to help literally assist with voice over and translation in as many indian languages as I know. While returning from India, I've interacted with similar innocent and dreamy eyed kids coming for studies to institutions I have not heard of. Such a sordid exploitation!!! There are hyenas on either side of the border!

I worked with many international students and most of their stories are heartbreaking. \nI wonder how is it possible that we always find a group of people getting away without facing consequences for their actions right in front of the government 's nose.\nThank you 5th estate for your diligent work.

Hi ladies. These are exactly the same situation here in the UK. I have been living in London since 1986 and surviving over here especially for those just arriving can be so frustrating. I often wonder why so many of our people are still struggling to come and live in these countries. I know you speak about the USA being better however I have a numbers of family and friends living in America and they are complaining about how hard you have to work in order to make ends meet. The answer to that could be the fact that many immigrants especially from Africa don't feel safe in their own home countries and bad leaders who continually fail to provide any opportunities for their youths and citizens. Thanks for sharing this vital information as many people think these western countries are paradise until they arrive and face the bare realities.

Welcome to Canada first if all. Why do people choose to leave their own homeland, then complain once they move to their chosen location? Canada has wonderful opportunities for anyone coming here, but if you think it’s a bed of roses, your dead wrong. Do your homework , research, decide what’s best for you. Live here for a few years , decide then. If it’s got you, move on, move out, your choice. But like any country there are good as well as bad. You can live a good life in Canada. So sorry we have cold winters that make us have the need to import many items and drive up the need to live here. So sorry you came and don’t enjoy the lifestyle here. Good luck moving to you next country of choice. Because many people don’t have a choice. Zoom zoom bye ✌️

I think you got the order all mixed up but me being from east coast and all these provinces ranking so low I wanna argue it but won't as I'm content with eastern Canada being left amazing I currently live in Ontario it's wonderful up north southern Ontario is crowded and costly bc is amazing and as stated costly except a cpl spots where it's really bad price wise or crime etc but really Quebec is ranked #1 lol good joke it's a beautiful place and some great ppl but so many ignorant french ppl turn me big time if I lived there I'd learn to speak french but they're rude to English but it's their language too otherwise it is great there but lang barrier for anything at worst random times I'd pass on

No wonder L.A has more 4 times as many Latinos than Canada guess they aren’t so nice
