As a hardworking Canadian, it is very sad and frustrated to see how people just cross the border so easily from the US when my immigrant parents who held bachelors and PHD needed to sacrifice so much to raise me. They had to do labor work in factories. Those people who seek asylum will enjoy so much such as free housing, food and education support. All the services are coming out from the taxpayers like me. I have been taxed so high that I almost cannot afford a place in large cities like Toronto and Vancouver. In my opinion, Canada should restrict the number of people seeking asylum every five years. It should offer less benefits to those people as well.

Wait until they get to Canada and realize they were better off in the States. High taxes, bad Healthcare, little to no housing unless you like paying $3100 for a 2 bedroom, and endure -20 weather for 6 of the year months, come aboard the magic carpet ride.????

Cant wait until it becomes political in Canada

I feel sorry for a lot of these people. This is going to keep happening, especially with climate change and unstable nations. Canada do treat these migrants slightly better than the United States but this is a hard thing to fix right now, with all of the things going on in the world. I am a hard-core a Democrat and I don’t have any solution to this issue, but there needs to be one.

You know what this mean? It mean United States is not what they think really in their mind. Not much different from their mother land. Next stop Canada

As a Canadian, I’m ashamed. I hate canada. We stand for nothing and fall to anything. I want to move to Florida.

All this started when Biden clowned administration took power. Influx to US and Canada will be a sess pool of people leeching on the system and ruining healthcare for hard working people. As if it wasn’t bad enough already.

?I thought Canada liked immigrants… yall fake

Stopped by the US for a cup of coffee and it's on to Canada. Damn these people love to travel.

I don't understand why people would want to leave the US and move to Canada. You would think it would be the opposite.

Have fun Canada, you mocked us for being racist for not letting these people in. Now they are your problem. This will help with our overpopulation problem

Lemme get this straight. South American migrants are trying to enter the USA in mass, others are leaving the USA to Canada as refugees, while people are leaving Canada to USA for better opportunities. Meanwhile both Canada and USA need more immigrants... What's going on here. ??

As a US citizen, I support illegal immigrants crossing into Canada.

Freaking Joke Canada. \nThen legal people, with everything in order, are forbid to enter the country.

I’m an American and I want to get into Canada ?? for its healthcare system

I don't understand why the U.S. & Canada doesn't aid Mexico instead of aiding Israel & Ukraine (especially Israel).

whats wrong with those losers, if they cant have a proper job in US, what makes them think things will be good in canada? It just a colder and less paid US.

A lot of these people will probably never attain full citizenship. The Canadian process is a lot stricter than you'd think. If they have children in Canada though, the children will become citizens automatically.

If Canada didn't want migrants crossing that border they would put up a thing called a fence ?

God blessed those who search for a better life. Reminding me of our ancestors. Asylum in Canada should be those poor people who need a helping hand and not economic assets asylum like dirty money. Forfeit profits from crime should be our priority. These bad actors need to be removed from our society. We don’t need them.

Why do people even want to go to Canada anyways its boring, cold and expensive. The fishing is decent especially in my province in manitoba

Canada is a cringe country.

I hope people can sympathize a bit more with diaspora in Canada and USA due to the slave trade. We deal with a lot of these issues but we can’t go “home”. There is no other “home “ for us. It’s upsetting.

From US to Canada, same in Europe. From France to Britain after they left the EU, they have no deal anymore. Sad truth.

Come to eastern Canada and become a statistic and another news story

You left out Vancouver from your list of large cities. A glaring omission, that makes six cities in Canada by your standards.

Canada needs to take in all illegals

The illegals are denied visas in the United States, so they keep heading north to Canada.

Canada is going to start having major,major probles!\nAssaults and murders are going to go up!

It’s so unfair because some people apply legally and spend so much money just to live and work in Canada while this people just enter illegally. Our taxes we pay provides the need of these immigrants.

Hey migrants Canada loves you and will have plenty of free programs and lots of work you can steal from the soft timid Canadian citizens. They won’t do a thing.

Ya won't be able to afford Canada gas is7bucks a gallon.

I have family from Nova Scotia can I get a citizenship in Canada?

Why do they want to come to canada? I would rather stay in the states if I was them .

Mexicans fleeing to America. Americans fleeing from Mexicans to Canada

Canada needs increasing population. in 1990, Canada had 33 million people, Kenya had around 24m people. In 2023, Canada has about 38 m people, an increase of 5m. Kenya has over 55m people, an increase of 30m people, yet Kenya's size is less that 5% of Canada. The top talented canadians who have potential to become multi millionairs move to USA, while top brass university trained Africans, asians and latin americans move to USA/ Canada to get minimum wage good salaries

Omfg and I’m over here try everything to get in Canada

I've said this before. The USA is so bad now that the only reason people are coming from Mexico to get here is cause they have to cross through to get to the real goal, Canada. The USA is just a halfway point. America sucks.

Police: if you cross to canada you will be arrested!!!\n\nPeople crosses\n\nPolice: welcome to canada!!!\nWtf!!???

Direct Canada k college staff ya visa provider ya Canada govt ki koi website nahi hy Kya direct Wo log s contact Karne Bcs indjan agent 99% fraud karte or 1 % Jo true krte wo paise bht khate

You can tell theyve never been to the US. Our emergency rooms can be all day long as well. And the taxes and health care costs end up being the same. Canadians are really misguided when it comes to their taxes. That tax situation is literally the same in the US. Its a false narrative that US people pay less in taxes when you build in the SEPARATE health care costs. For example, I pay 24% in taxes based on my tax bracket. Those taxes do not include the extra health care costs of having a PPT with health care premiums and deductibles- which is an extra 9330 (so an extra 10%)- so now we are paying the same- literally 34% between taxes and health care. AND add to that- the health care that we pay does not cover lab work and copays and medicines. Thats all out of pocket. So its honestly the same cost. It would be MORE fair to live in Canada where everyone gets that taken out of their taxes. Instead in the US, I pay for my health care, and poverty income people get free Medicaid. Then these girls talk about the cost of living? They have never been to the TRI state area.

Biggest difference USA has was more places to live every variety of climate you could ask for. It has way more opportunity because of the higher population. Way more jobs, way more national parks. They're extremely similar countries but I have to give it to the US is the variety of places to live. Canada may be bigger but most of it is a desolate wasteland. The only nice places to live in Canada are cities directly on the border. As far as how nice people are Canadians are just polite not always genuine. If an American is nice to you odds are they actually like you or they're someone you can't trust. But generally if a Canadian in nice to you they could hate your guts. An American seeing how Canadians act gives them a idolized view of who we are. If an American doesn't like you you'll know it and if they do like you you'll know it. This is the perspective of someone who grew up on a border town.

Back in the days migrants would try to enter the U.S. from Canada. Now it's the opposite.

at this point canada ?? with their idiotic policies should just become a part of america to get their freedoms back from their communist dictator

Sadly those attempting legal entrance into Canada are ignored and illegals are put to the head of the line. Only in Canada. This only shows that Canadian leadership is totally inept.

The USA has millions of illegal immigrants. That's why citizens of the US seem cruel. The drugs from the Mexico border are killing people across the USA ?? ?. AND YES CANADA IS A GOOD COUNTRY ?

They need to do their part step up Canada it’s aboot time help

Canada can thank nobody other than America’s Democratic Party along with its idiot president. Most importantly you gotta blame New York’s Democratic Mayor Adams for putting them on a bus and sending them up there in the first place. What a fucking circus America is under the Biden Administration

Unfortunately all pose, no action, as Canada’s striped yellow-red panties brigade are arresting jackshit!

CANADA is a welfare state like western European countries,
