A theatre teacher? Explains everything!

I had a meal like that before on that same plate and everything. Then I was released from jail and ate normal food.

He shouldn't belly ache about being abused. He abused the system himself. Illegals lie, cheat and abuse tax paying systems and think that they are entitled to everything citizens are by birthright. I'm sad for him that he misses his family but he brought it upon himself.

My parents did everything legally. And I agree that everyone should be legal citizens this man isn't very smart to be living in America for 15 years without applying to become a legal citizen in America

Hope he like mayo on everything, hockey, and crappy beer.

It is the Canadian government that makes Canada sound like we are welcoming to all immigrants. That is not the stance of many citizens that own the government. It's like going to work and your boss paying you to tell him or her how to run their business. Canada is a pretend democracy that has governments who work toward their own agendas. They are a globalist bunch that spend your tax money on everything accept real Canadians.

We saw everything we need to see 9/11. They have no place in any CIVILIZED SOCIETY....

This is what they deserve for calling Trump a racist for not wanting them in America. and now there learning the hard way and good luck getting them out now cause now they will vote on everything to benefit them and to bring many more in that country.and there lying they cover there face in absolute fear of what there husband will do if they took it off.

It’s very simple , muslims come to US Canada and to European countries, from their Respective countries because they are not happy , then slowly they use freedom of speech , Democracy, civil rights , it’s in their Quran , were there are in majority, don’t give any thing to minority’s, were there are in miniority , demand everything from majority, that’s what they are doing , next thing they will ask for shariat law

Name me one plus having these people and their religion in any western country. They teach hate about everything you are and your country.Just look at the nightmare of the UK and Europe where I lived and have seen the negative changes costing countries billions with over 60% of over 50 million in Europe living off benefits. It will cost Germany alone over 22 billion Euros a year to keep their migrant/refugees. The moderate holds you down while the extremist cuts your head off.

a well spoken mexican guy with 2 kids and a wife doing what it takes to survive. i mean this shit is just made up. i mean cmon. Its not even REAL. Who leaves usa for canada XD Thats like saying, im going to trade in this ferrari for a honda thats not running but itll be super cheap to fix it, oh wait, everything costs tons more then i thought. Ya ok. A mexican in the snow. I dont buy it.

He bashes trump goes for winning libtard points but when it starts costing his country billions everything changes What's his problem

Even if they do try to do it the legal way sometimes they are not granted with any type of visa or green card. The government can deny their application for many reasons. So they end up crossing the border illegally. As well it is cheaper to cross the border than to apply for a visa or some sort of legal document. Many of these “lawbreakers” you suggest to be in jail have tired to do everything the legal way but it didn’t work out. Immigrants risk their lives and their love ones to have a better life, to be able to work to be able to have things that it’s impossible to have in their country. They are innocent people with dreams and hopes I don’t know why ya are so quick to judge. Try to put yourself in their place, and try to be open minded and listen.

My daughter in law came to America, got her visa, green card and international drivers license. She did all that under a year. She does everything expected of her and has not had any problems. She got a real job and has never asked the US Govt to support her in any way. People that do what is expected of them have no issues. It's those that sneak in and bypass and abuse the system that pay the price for their crime. While I feel for the children it's their very own parents that did it to them. Put the Blame where it lies. Americans are only asking them to come into our country legally, pay for your documents needed to stay. If not you need to go just like any other country in the world.

I’m sorry there isn’t more kindness in this world for him and his family. My parents had such a hard and expensive time immigrating to America. I know how desperate you have to be to want to leave everything you love.

fucevery G7 country has a great economy right now, esp the US, ditto China, but Russia's is crippled by an overdependence on oil (when oil prices halved 3 years ago, Russia was F$CKED) and G7 sanctions over the annexation of Crimea. So who wins from a trade war that stalls economic growth world-wide, including the US?\n The US NAFTA negotiator (Trump's man) states on his website that the US has a Trade SURPLUS with Canada overall, and has balanced trade with the EU, so Trump has to remove America's huge Trade Surplus in Services to even pretend current trade isn't fair, SO WHY IS HE DOING IT: THE ONLY BENEFICIARY IS PUTIN! \n PUTIN'S allies, using Russian bots to back anti-immigrant, ultra-nationalist platforms, have taken over Italy and Hungary since he took over the US presidency in '16 (most American's noticed), they almost got France, and have Canada and Germany in their sights.\n Trump announcing he wants Russia back into the G7 had ZERO backing in any branch of the US Govt, the Republican Party, or even his own Whitehouse, ditto his announcement of a Summit with Putin. British Intelligence tried to warn you, but now the fact that EVERYTHING Putin could want of a US President is the only rational that explains EVERYTHING Trump does is noticable to EVERYONE in America, except the obvious dimwits who get their News exclusively from Fox News and Trump's twitter account.king click bait ..

I hate that at my work that we have a 5 foot rule; if a customer is within sight in 5 feet of you, you are to ask them if they need help with anything. Whether or not we suspect them of stealing. We don't discriminate racially, we do this with every person who walks into the store. Which is ridiculous because our store is very small and we have anywhere between 3 and 6 employees on the floor at any given time. So, inevitably, every customer is offered help many many times in their visit. I am always worried that a person of colour will think I'm profiling them, when I'm really not. I genuinely just want to know if they're finding everything they need or have any questions. If we were to racially profile based on the people who have stolen from us in the past, we'd be going after every white person who walks in the store. In my 3 years working there we have had only white people steal from us. So sick of the race issue, we're all humans. The amount of melanin in our skin should not matter.

How could he not have expected everything that he is going through... that was very naive of him to think he was going to be welcomed with open arms in any country that wasn't his, especially arriving as an illegal alien. The grass is not always greener on the other side.

I wish this documentary was in spanish that way they see is not easy be crossing countries as they wish.\nSouth American have the responsability for his own country why US have to fix this people stability? \nEverybody in this countries believes just for cross the border you have everything, the job is waiting for them and lots of money. This no sense is in this countries

Illegals please go to canada! They have everything u need. It's a much better place than USA

Dear Vice, \n\nYou're trying to spin this into some sort of politically correct bull shit sob story but I am not buying it, and glad others in the comments are not too. This guy is an absolute disgrace, and is nothing but a bottom feeder. \n\nHere are my reasons why:\n\n1. Lived in the US for many years, yet chooses not converse in English. \n\n2. Thinks on the lines that hard working class citizens & legal immigrants will pay for the welfare of him & his entire family. \n\n3. Does absolutely no research in immigration laws, despite spending that many years in the system, and decides to enter illegally hoping everything is kumbaya on the other side of the border. \n\n4. A dirt bag for no reason whatsoever. \n\nI myself am not a citizen of either these countries. I personally would love to live and work there, however in the future I will choose to apply and enter legally, and encourage everyone to do the same. These asshole illegal immigrants ruin it for everyone else, just look where the US immigration system is at. It's an absolute mess!

UK keep your place safe......in India we are totally fuckedup by Muslim......we know everything about this fuckers

Yall always tryna make everything yalls

When my parents found a nice house in a white neighborhood they made all the paperwork work and everything then was told no since the neighbors had protested and did not want want minorites in the neighborhood

She was rude and a b***h to those people for no reason but she didn't bring up race\nI hate when racism is watered down by applying it to everything. \nP.s. The language you speak does not tie you to one race.

This is beyond disgusting and goes against everything that's truly Canadian. I'm really sorry you all had to go through such an unfortunate situation. This is not a representation of our great country, you are welcomed and most importantly you are Canadian.

So he crosses ILLEGALLY into two countries and wants everything his way. He's special.

I looked up the test. It biases everything 'good' and 'white' with right hand motion and everything 'bad' and 'African desent' is done with the left hand. Yes those are the actual test terms. Since the majority of people are right handed ...

I am a TPS holder from el salvador for about 20 years with 3 kids born in Tennessee. and that program will end in September 2019, , i have to go back to my country and there is nothing i can do to stay in this country usa that have gave me everything what i have ; a beautiful family and a house that i am selling for 300,000 a nice car Toyota camry selling for 7000, a Nissan Frontier selling for 8000, a HVAC technical diploma and a good hvac job(60,000a year) but i just woke up and i found out that this dream already ends, ,,,,,,,,,,,, but i am not crying feeling like a Donald Trump victim.........guest what?

He is not speaking English and expecting to find a job in English speaking country? He is either expecting for us to learn Spanish or he is expecting to live out of welfare. \nCompassion based mass immigration is hurting everyone as we need to pay for their life expenses. \nMerit based immigration is what is welcomed - learn the language, have some useful skills and apply. \nHoping to get everything free and expect to have the same living standard is equal outcome utopia that is hurting honest people through higher taxes and increased retirement age.

everything those covered woman said is a lie

Anti-Islamic sentiment a growing concern ?!?!?!?!?! that is the concern??? islamic primitiv beliefs, the horrible way they treat women... what they believe about God as ultimate law...ANYONE?!?!?!?!?!? there´s a reason behind EVERYTHING... and their DANGEROUS BELIEFS is the reason...

I bring BACON IN HALAL GROCERY STORES AND WIPE IT ALL OVER EVERYTHING

We cannot control how people think. We all have our preferences just like brand preferences. The difference is in our action. NOt everything we think manifest in our actions. Men who look with lust at women does not necessarily means it will become sexual assault. Most of the time it depends upon your culture and upbringing.

Laws are laws you seek asylum in the first safe landing not your choice of wherever whenever. Why then can I not leave Canada and go live in another country undocumented then when I fear deportation just go to another country? Because it's illegal yeah. Ugh we are not here to be used and walk all over like a doormat especially if you are not working and paying taxes but taking everything you can get. There are plenty of people in dangerous situations like ukrane and other war torn areas that legit need a place he and his family were already in the US they shouldn't have left there to make fake claims here. Sorry but that's not how it works.

They think that if they come to AMERICA or CANADA they have it made. That will give them everything they need. Yet we have our own people to take care of.

I'm sick of these sob stories. Are those people really that stupid? I'm beginning to think they really are. This man had been in the States for several years according to this video. He was in the States illegally. He clearly never bothered to learn English, and it looks like that for his family too. Then he gets scared because Trump got elected and actually starts ENFORCING IMMIGRATION LAW. So he flees to Canada just because of something a really STUPID and poorly liked PM says. So he takes his family and again is expecting to be given asylum, and then does no research to find out the facts about Canada's immigration system before he goes there. Then he complains about having to spend all his money. Oh gee, did he actually think they would just give him free everything??? Clearly the threat he's complaining about in his own country is not that bad, since Canada rejected his asylum. So what does he do? He refuses to turn up for his hearing, and then he flees to another province. Totally criminal activity. Canada's immigration people need to round him up and deport him. It's his OWN FAULT he is separated from his family. HE BROKE THE LAW!!! There are CONSEQUENCES to breaking the law. Sheesh!!! I'm so sick of hearing these sob stories from these freeloaders. Yep---They really are that STUPID!!!

People want everything for free

You folks who always claim racism, helps to keep it alive.. It may not be the color but the way you act in an establishment. I'm white and had on an old leather jacket ove day while shopping which possibly made me look needy. That day while walking through different stores at the mall, I was followed by store personal and also by the security team while walking between stores. After not seeing what I had been looking for in all of the other stores was a new leather jacket but not seeing what I wanted in all of those places that I visited, I walked to Wilson house of Leather and finally found that new jacket. Best of all it was on sale. I've lost some weight since those days but I still have my leather coat which is a bit big for me now and starting to look like the coat that got me followed that day at the mall. Not everything is color when you get those looks and I would say it's more on the way you present yourself. \n\n Funny how it was during the times of the HURRICANES were the riots and thefts were done by people od color. Not all blacks riot and loot but those who do are a reflection of the thinking of certain races on this earth. Whites are just as guilty but no Asians, Whites Indians Arab or alien were photographed looting during trying times for many. In times of crisis can you depend on your neighborhood?

As usual YouTube does it's best to allow trolls out and shit on everything. Look, Canada is a country, we have rules. Justin got alittle crazy and said somethings, which sadly had to go back on. Like no other politician hasn't done before. Believe it or not we do have backbones up here.

Hopefully everything goes well for him and his family everyone deserves a better future then that there own country can’t give

There are tons of successful blacks in Canada, not all of them are like Drake's dad wo goes to prison or runs out on his family. There are plenty of successful Jamaicans in Canada that are highly successful. Jamaicans and other of African Descent are doctors, lawyers, schoolteachers, engineers, IT REPS, mechanics, accountants, biochemists, cops, and so much more. That's because they have chosen to do the right things in life. Life is all about choices. People who are successful in life, are successful because they made good choices and good decisions early on. People who are a failure in life are a failure because they made bad choices early on and life and wouldn't listen to nobody and did what they did without any regard for the consequences. Choices. That's what everything in life boils down to.

America has free healthcare basically, it's called Medicaid, I wouldn't say I'm poor at all, which is what people think you have to be to qualify. I'd say normal middle class, husband works in a factory making decent money and we qualify for it, but yes healthcare is ridiculous, even Medicaid doesn't cover everything.

If Canada wants to import Muslims on mass they deserve everything they get --your going to reap just what you sew.

we are not children why do people put something into everything we say......If you say something and anyone takes it as prejudice that does not mean you are prejudiced against anyone......we all have our quirks and the people that claim all of this usually take everything and analzye it ....instead of taking what is being said as just a comment.....there have been things said that I did not like but I do not say anything because everyone is entitled to their own opinions.......

I have some prejudice about certain people and topics and I stereotype of course. It's an automatic thing for humans to do. We immediately assess everything and anyone around us. That's normal. Now, what isn't normal is going out of your way to violate the rights of any human being or to harass them in any manner. Obviously we can't help what we think and what is in our heads but we can control whether or not we act on these things. Fortunately most of us do not act on our thoughts, but some people do.

Ya syrians need more free money. Seriously these Syrians live in mansions and get everything for free.

Isn't this AGAINST the law? I would sue them for everything they have. When I get through with them, they'll need to try to rent an apartment from me because I'd OWN everything I can get from them.

Islam ruins everything it wraps its tentacles around.

Did she just list honor killings as a part of Islam??? This journalist needs to research the religion properly because honor killings are not condoned whatsoever... this concept is just belted out by haters who are on a smear campaign of Islam. And then this journalist gave that farzana lady the last word of her 'critical' views on Islam it just undid everything the Muslims were doing before her giving a clearer picture of Islam, farzana lady will just make people confused I mean those are her personal opinions but how does it help this piece? Also last time I checked following fashion trends is not synonymous to peer pressure as what journalist wants to suggest that girl was peer pressured in to wearing the scarf when she clearly explained she wasn't. And when that guy was talking about teaching women Islamic studies journalist is like but you just teach them Islam not anything else WELL it's a mosque that's what people usually do if they want to learn religion they go to place of worship, if they want to learn something else they go to school or university. She's just twisting their words to give this undertone to the piece that yes the stereotypes are true but Muslims are still somewhat ok. Just stop spreading the hate and provide non-bias journalism!
