Even though we speak English, it is not an official language in the USA.

doctor sahiba cant speak Urdu ,?

Great video! Reminded me of when I immigrated to Canada 21 years ago with 8 years of back home experience, still I had to wait for 5 long years during which I went to school twice to get into my field here, and countless times thought about moving back, but once stepped into my field here those thoughts went away. Speaking of taxes, I don't read my pay stubs in much detail, I'm happy as long as I'm able to pay my bills. Canadian Healthcare system doesn't pamper too much, but it's a great blessing in serious emergencies, I and my family experienced several times getting health services worth of several thousands of dollars and ending up paying nothing, so can't complain. At the end Canada is a great country and a great place to live!

this was soo funny mmenichekesha on english speaking???, u did so good Tabitha❤️

Sure, why wouldn't we welcome this guy with open arms? Illiterate, can't speak either one of our official languages, the planet is bursting at the seams with potential lettuce pickers, we don't need anymore.

I am in China / PhD graduate, and really interested in Canada, I can speak French/English fluently ... which city do you suggest ?

A compelling documentary, thank you. Why is it that black people continue to be so demonised and de-humanised? It is such a shame that follow Asians and even American Natives play such a role in perpetuating racism against African descent people, but I guess they have their issues of identity. Real shame nonetheless, but one thing at the time, we still have a bigger hurdle to overcome.\n \nOf course, it is still not easy to be a black woman, man or child today. Sadly our mothers are still crying for their children being killed or overly punished by the police institution, our kids are still targeted if not simply despised for being beautiful, bright, talented, lively and brilliant beings with deeper skin tonalities, and hair that speaks for us otherwise. It is still dangerous because there is so much hatred across the world against us as we are coming to understand. And hatred is unpredictable. It comes in different ugly shapes. \n\nAfrican descent people are institutionally exposed to a lack of opportunities based on race, leading to the disproportionate poverty levels in our communities, and poverty brings your far closer to crime. That should not be so difficult to calculate. We're faced with higher mortality and disease rates, covid 19 has rubbed that to our eyes, care systems medical world is in less favour and neglect black communities. On a day-to-day, I am so insulted about the security guard that follows me in the shop, it is so disrespectful and embarrassing, that makes me move suspiciously indeed, yet so low and ignorant I don't even want to have to confront the issue. \n\nI agree with the writer who writes about his experience (and shame?) of being a black man in Canada- the same is institutionally reflected in Europe and across the world let's not be naive, we're not welcome but they should know they have no choice. I believe what he really is trying to express is based on the fear of being a black man in a hostile environment, but we should certainly have nothing to be ashamed of. \n\nOn contrary, we should be very proud because we are still here, like any other citizens paying our taxes and playing positive roles in society by major. We have positive role models are everywhere, from the single mother raising her children with force and determination to the black father who teaches at a local school, from the black girl who's achieved top grades to university to the black young man who's been headhunted from the medical school. And all of us who are just trying. \n\nLook closely. While the media will continue to do its good job demonising and stereotyping us negatively, let's not forget that we are real people with real accomplishments who have always made impactful contributions to society. \n\nHere's the thing, we are admired, loved and celebrated because of the brilliance, talent, charisma, swag and wealth we bring to contemporary culture. Everyone consumes black culture, from the filler lip service to the quick fix tan, from rock and roll to hip hop and RnB music, to sports athletes to the amazing creators out there, no need to mention names. But, we also are doctors, politicians, judges nurses, waiters, carers, scientists, builders, bankers, entrepreneurs, employees or unemployed. \n\nSadly on a day-to-day, we are not viewed as equal people, with equal rights and needs, who, by large, just want the good for our children, our families, neighbours and indeed countries. STOP INSTITUTIONAL RACISM. We are real mothers, real fathers, real children who have a birthright to equal treatment, respect and human dignity, whether or not you choose to disagree.

All greed and brain washing by developed countries. I left my permenant residency in USA and moved legally to Canada hoping it was going to be better. It was not. Guess what. I am leaving here too and going back to Africa. I was never happy making lots of money or being around rich people. Rather suffer financially until death than live and pretend to believe lies about what it means to be human. You are a complete person no matter where you live, or how much you make or what language you speak.

Why mixing english and hindi. Either speak english or hindi. Disliked the video

the guy wanted to go to Canada but didnt even speak English, after having lived years in the US...

Why was he speaking to her in Hindi, though?

write in your language! if you are not gonna speak English, please stop polluting the wrong information!

He wasn't approved because he's not middle Eastern or Asian. That's not being racist it's based on facts and a big cause of the unemployment problem in Canada because Canada born citizens can't even get jobs at Walmart anymore and most of the Walmart employees barely speak English if they do speak the language at all. My local Walmart for example was 100% locals and students from the local college but a year and a half ago they laid off all but 6 locals who were managers and shift leaders and hired all immigrants who don't even live in the area. And skip the dish isn't any better all the drivers in my area actually live in Brampton and Toronto but delivery food 2-3 hours away from home and I'm pretty sure that's actually why covid keeps spreading.

Racial profiling is real. Basically all kind of profiling happens. How you look. How you dress. How you speak. What car you drive. What job you do.

In çanada 10millions ppl speak French ?

Plz speak slowly.

There are so many Spanish-speaking countries to take asylum at. Why would you want to go somewhere where you don’t even understand the language? Why is it always USA and Canada?

Compared to Belgium Canada is a dream. We pay more taxes and speak 3 languages ? I’m moving to Canada next year. Your video helped a bit thank youuuu

Man you speak too fast ?

Asian hate must stop now! It’s a good thing these acts get reported today! Thanks for speaking out

You’ve been in an English speaking country for awhile. So why do you need to communicate via Spanish? You should’ve learned the language by now. That’s the biggest thing, if you want to be a American or Canadian then learn the language. \n\nI’m Latin and my father n uncles hated going places in the US and another Latin would speak Spanish to them. Even though they could speak Spanish they said this is America speak English. \n\nNot all minorities like seeing people coming into the country illegally or by trying to use asylum when they have no claim. If it’s hard in your country don’t have kids, try to immigrate legally to a country!

It seems so wildly impossible to imagine that the people still willfully in a comatose state after a year of this insanity... will ever wake up. \nI don't know what to think any more...\nSometimes I'm certain it's all a mass awakening happening at turtle-speed, and all is perfect; divine timing.\nOther times... watching zombies in masks, salivating with excitement over the mark of the beast... that's when I lose my ability to hold on to hope...\n(I also heard David icke speak in an interview about the coming of 6g and 7g! How will humanity survive that?)

Canada is bilingually French speaking. So, how dare you !

I like the way the girl said “ No now I don’t want to go back to India”.,,, speaks a lot about a India than Kaneda

Um... (1) Living in Alberta, I pay overall less tax than someone in my tax bracket living in California. We don't all have high taxes. (2) Montréal is allo-lingual, and probably 80% able to speak English in its core. Quebec City is primarily French. (4) We have publically funded, not free, healthcare, and regulated pharmacare, private eye and dental care (5) you typically tip anyone who provides you a personal service - you should include valets, housekeeping, consierge services, porters and anyone who provides exceptional service. Get out of Vancouver, Canada is big.

Just pretend you don't speak French

'Eh...' \nI'd guesstimate 50% for taxes here in the US as well as Canada - and probably ('almost') anywhere else. \nOnly Quebec is known to be the French speaking area. \nIt's kinda obvious healthcare doesn't include mediations. \nIt's disrespectful to expect tips. \nOH, so you admit to Canadian 'cops' as being corrupt. Nothing new.

I have a small confusion due to different sites saying different things. My scores for ielts is Reading- 7, Listening- 8, Speaking- 9, Writing-6.5. How many points is that? According to a few sites it's 23 but some sites say 20.

From overwhelming amounts of bad experience: Generational abuse, damages, corruption, delusion, speaking and acting with certainty, even indisputable while other possibilities exist - creating more and more conflict and damages and time being wasted, is life in Canada. The Canadians who have taken power and control over and upon others and childrens lives, have sabotaged so many lives, have corrupted reasonableness, logic, and needed care. Many Canadian children have been and are still being tortured, trafficked, profited on, and poisoned. Victims are now disabled, expected to heal themselves often while still feeling tortured, and are largely left to continue to suffer while the majority basically looks the other way, works to party, play, go on vacations and such, and basically refuses to understand what went wrong, where it went wrong, and where it's going wrong, in childhood. This's why I think most don't get it and why Canada doesn't have smart people, and why people ask why from others instead of figuring it out or should already know the answer if so-called adults were competent and actually helpful. The ugly truth is that Canadians don't know how to raise children all that well - day after day, year after year, generation after generation. Emotional and physical damages are often permanent; one a child or a person is poison and traumatise, there's no coming back. Canada at large is still one of the worst human violators on this planet and there is really no end in sight for child abuse because it's not Canada's top priority.

Breaks the law in 2 countries and does not understand why its not working out for him . He\nlived in USA for15 years and cannot speak english .\nJust not smart at all .

It’s insulting to hear Ontario and Quebec ministers speak so foolishly

Why did you speak too fast. I did Not understand anything first time from Igor

After watching the first 30 seconds my first thoughts were: Just because your chinese, doesn't mean you can speak chinese. It also doesn't mean you actually ever lived in China

Honestly speaking, Canada is basically a cold and dreary place.

I heard the girl was speaking filipino

What phillipinos do in Canada, barely speaking English, living with a half of their Philippines?! Yeah, guy is hot-tempered, showing his agressivity, but that happens because vast majority of Canadian citizens just fed up with Phillipinos!!

It is like a english speaking Sweden

So do you speak hindi?\nYep I`m fluent: 0:38

My wife is Asian. When we go somewhere I can barely get anyone to speak to me. Everyone speaks to her. Is that sexism or racism?

Someone did this to me at school a few years ago and told me to go back to China but I am korean like boi don’t speak to Asian like that because some korean and Japanese will know what you said you can’t just say go back to China you shouldn’t have say that because China is not the only Asian country

Very well done! In Canada we are not really patriotic, we love being canadian but we ca speak more freely against it then in the US. We are more free in general because of the global safety. The culture is not only related to money. And lastly we are more aware or interested in the rest of the world. That being sais the last 4 years had destroyed the american brand, so I hope that Canadian way of living will rub off on the US so it would create a more stable and better world.

You talk realistically. I like it. You speak truth. Thanks for your guidance. Bahuto ne toh copr milne se pehle se hi virtual no lene ka advice de diya tha. Thanks for showing the right path guys?. Keep it up

Asian racism is so normalized speak up for us

Bro \nAre you even from Canada? \nSome REAL TIPS \n1) Canada is expensive as fuck. Good luck on a minimum wage job. Don’t bother coming if you don’t have degrees because with such little population jobs are extremely competitive \n2) doctors visits and emergency rooms don’t cost anything upfront but do expect an 8 hour wait or 12 in a big city. Doesn’t matter what your “emergency” is... get in line. We have the longest waits in the world for things like X-rays and MRI’s. True story look it up. \n3) we have the most expense cell phone plans in the world with the shittiest coverage. In all fairness we have a small population and a massive landmass. \n4) if you’re moving to BC, car insurance is government run. So it’s extremely expensive (I think also the most expensive in the world) and it’s awful... so don’t ever get into an accident) other provinces don’t run this way. \n5) gas in BC is also very expansive because of multiple taxes, it’s affordable most places in the prairies though \n6) drinking is 18+ everywhere except BC where it’s 19+ \n\nSo if you want to live somewhere “nice” move to BC. but you’ll be poor as fuck. \nWant to live somewhere affordable, move to the prairies but it’s awful. \nYou can’t move to Quebec if you don’t speak French fluently. Toronto is okay and you won’t fit in anywhere in the eastern islands so don’t even bother. \n\nThe end.

major human rights violation. Speak up immigrants, you are not a secondary human being.

This is a pile of bollocks. East London is STILL a working class BRITISH community. Both myself and 42 Army Veterans are on alert to deal with anything wrong in OUR community. We have not had a single call or text as we speak.
