This all makes me very sad within the last 10 years because it's not what I grew up with and loved 😢 I grew up with multiculturalism enriching my childhood. Learning from different cultures at friends dinners and other different friends houses and attending eastern-themed event from all different parts of the East. There was so much to learn just in my own country from other people from other countries it was fascinating !!! I got to take part in different ceremonies and watch different people celebrate the same sort idea about something in much different ways, I loved it. I learned at least half of my best exterior Plastering tricks from people that had thick accents from all over the East and I'm better plasterer because of it. I learned cooking recipes in the kitchen that I probably never would have stumbled across randomly. I was shown in person all the nuances to certain ways different cultures cooked - like how amazing is that!! There are maybe only a few tricks that I was able to show in return but I always tried to do my best ! The amount of community an alternate types of activities or interesting festivals that without multiculturalism would not even exist . When I was young everybody new integrated into the neighborhood unit first got to know the neighbourhood we're introduced the community center and then obviously people have their own separate areas that they prefer. We first became one, one by one, and meet each other and try to have some fun together that's the whole point! Community or block parties when I was a kid had all of our parents looks like representatives from different countries, that's the way it used to be anyway.... where did it all go? I stopped seeing this type of beautiful multi-ethnic Harmony roughly 10 years ago. Not only that when I try to be a part of new things I am literally turned away or shunned in some weird way I don't know why... I can't even believe how I'm treated.

I’m 49 years old and grew up in the UK. I was always proud of our multiculturalism growing up about 1/5 of the classrooms were of another country/race. Everyone loved the immigrants they came in worked hard and didn’t cause trouble, most importantly they intergrated. But something changed with this new wave of immigration. They don’t integrate, they don’t work, they want to cha ge the country and religion. They don’t seem to even like Brit’s 😂. It’s a sad situation. Govt has clearly done this on purpose so the natives have to fight for scraps by bringing in desperate people

I grew up with integration that I LOVED, met people from all over the world. I've been working since I was 14 I've worked for people from all over the world , rented from different people since I was 18 and learned great things I can add to my construction or cooking repertoire that you could possibly couldn't learn in the West without diversity. BUT now we have a group of people coming here buying up businesses while only hiring people from their country buying up single homes putting up crammy 8 plexus, and only renting to people from their home country. If these were French people like my heritage is, I would be even more pissed because I could say something without being called a racist. These immigrants are coming here with one goal retribution against the English Empire for the past or some shit, I dont know, and they're taking it out on us Canadians. over 5 years I've collected proof so I feel very safe coming out now and talking about this because I have everything to back it up. Those single homes I was talking about half of them burned down and they use insurance fraud money add multiple loopholes to use government money along the way as well, that's damn taxpayer money building parts of these homes... I'm a concrete worker they do not let these walls set properly, they don't seal the windows and doors properly, everything's going to leak but because they only rent to people from their home country after 3 years they can take their name off the property and nobody and I mean nobody is going to report leaks because they have a tyrannical control over who they rent to.... I dont even need to name the group because its OBVIOUS, living in the same city most ky life I've seen a drastic change, and this isnt intregation like my family did as they we're the members of french part of the metis tribe long ago. 5 years in a row they have added an average of 70,000 people legally to the city I live in I live in of 1.4 million people that is absolutely absurd the train system is packed all the way until 1:00 a.m.... it's just simple economics you can't add that many people and have a sustainable City.... these idiots never played sim city or some shit Also there are millions that came pretending to get spots in our universities and didn't show up, and these are the same people that are buying up all the businesses and houses and only letting the people from their own country be involved that is not integration....... There's also a huge problem with people faking Refugee status from this very place and there's even a few videos circulating online on just how to do it people from this country bragging how their making double of the average income of a Canadian a year PLUS free food and board from this fake Refugee status, HOLY FUCK! We are radicalizing here in Alberta and it's about to get real. Not only do these immigrants only want their own people involved in anything they are rude as hell when confronted about any of this even in a kind way.  There's a great deal of them that are at the top of the fenthinal distribution. mind you a lot of that's being shipped from other places but the distribution hails differently....roughly 70% of the major fenthinal arrests and seizures have those paticular heritage backgrounds to prove it. They are destroying the country in SO MANY WAYS, im DONE trying to be civil or nice about this debate,  5 years is my limit bitches, fuck you, fuck off or we'll fucking make you -Alberta proud , and fuck you again bitches

I'm done being quiet too. Im not racist, I dont hate people because their skin color isnt white like mine, Im happy to have immigrants here if they are willing to integrate like the previous generations have. We arent having kids because unlike other countries, we want to put kids first, and its irresponsible to have children when our economy is unaffordable to have them. I dont have any of that so called "white privilege" i always hear about. I grew up where I couldnt shower for days at a time, went to bed and school hungry. I'm exhausted from being labeled a terrible person when I condemn racists and the past actions, but its never good enough because im white. We have culture, Canada has culture. You just dont hear us talk about it cuz we get labeled racist for talking about it. We need to stand shoulder to shoulder if we want change in this country. I dont get why here its acceptable to come illegally, leech our resources without contributing to society and disrespect us, yet if we were to do the same its disrespectful. Well it is disrspectful. I wouldnt move to a country without learning the language, at least enough to get by, learning their culture, their values, their way of life, and ASSIMILATE like everyone has done before. NO more being quiet, no more being afraid of standing up for myself. Make Canada Great Again!

Why do you guys literally sit there and lie…? ALL. THE. TIME! \n\nPlease do tell us why you were streaming the Butler, PA convention as the FIRST AND ONLY you ever live streamed..? \n\nWhat did you know..?\n\nI miss the CNN I grew up with. One with integrity.

My issues is that Canadians grew up with diversity, however now you walk into Tims, McDonald's, Walmart, etc., and you see no diversity, just 100% Indians in most places. Hardly any blacks, Asians, eastern Europeans, etc. It is also a matter of too many too fast, not enough time for them to integrate into Canadian society. As far as government, they are bringing in too many people without the infrastructure to support them, so they are taking away from Canadians of all races.

The only thing I would say cause you seem to be very young. Is that brampton actually in the 70's and to early 2000's used to be mostly a white and black community and then other cultures. I am born in Toronto I have a cousin born in Toronto who currently lives in brampton she owns a house in brampton for about 25 years. And is going through a lot mentally with the slamming. We got of people from India mostly in the last 2 years, but it's been going on slowly over 10 years and she's not doing well with the overwhelment of Indians and we're of black Jamaican heritage. So just so you know, brampton used to actually be white and then black was actually the second largest population and everybody else was after that. And then in the last 10 years they started coming but it wasn't in hundreds of thousands and then in the last 2 years it blew up insanely. As that man described is like an invasion. I now live on the West Coast of Canada and the same thing has happened here. And it's been a lot for me Canadian born. I've always grew up with every culture. I've lived and worked around the Indians that used to come here were literally not even on the radar. I mean you see them, but you just they just blended in because most of them had assimilated and were doing their lives. The breed that has come over specifically in the last 2 years is what is making it even worse cause if they acted like the ones who came before 10 -20 -30 years ago. They probably wouldn't stand out, but then again when you bring in almost a million, into all of Canada, they would stand out, but maybe people wouldn't be so agitated, if they had tried to assimilate and be respectful to the other cultures here and that is the number one complaint I hear anytime, I see interviews. Is people saying they don't assimilate? They're very rude to anybody who is not them. They are just interacting with the environment. The way they do at home, Canadians are more quiet and try to be respectful of other cultures. We like to just have their own space and our own peace when they're moving throughout this space and a lot of people describe the energy of the Indians coming in almost evasive into your space and then not really carrying anything about invading ur space. They act like, so what's the big deal if I'm in your space and that has been the number one issue is just the rudeness. Not assimilating and imposing their culture, speaking their language, not attempting to integrate with other cultures showing actually a lot of racism to some of the other cultures. And that has been the biggest problem. So just so you know, cause I can tell you're young. I'm North 40 years old and I can tell you. The demographic change has been so intense everywhere in Canada especially in the last 2 years. That I have even seen podcast with Indian people who have been here 10 -20-30 years, saying the government needs to figure out a way and get a good swath of these people gone because they are. Staining them with a negative brush. Cause I can tell you. It's only in the last 5 years. That I notice Indians. I've grown up around every culture. And I just don't notice individual cultures in that way. Until in 2022, Trudeau took the guard railsl off the foreign worker program and the student Visa working program. And just said Hey, anybody want to come bum rush the door now? And India is known for having middlemen in India that work with Fake Diploma Mills scholls with brampton having over 80 of them that the middlemen work scamming Indians by telling them if they pay anywhere from $5000 all the way up to $50,000 even higher to get fake school acceptance letters, so they can come here to get the word permit and work full-time or with companies that provide fake LMIA job offers on the black market, which is illegal under the I.R.C.C, but that is a thing that they had prior to 2022. And when Trudeau took the guards rails off when it comes the requirements and basically. Made it a free-for-all and as India already had the scamming infrastructure in place that kept their population moderate and it just allowed th scammers to go nuts, so that's why we got mostly Indians. Other cultures do it too, but it's so tiny. It's not noticeable. The Indians already had the infrastructure in place that when they took off the guard rails, it was easy for them to switch and start selling these opportunities to go to these fake schools was over 80 of them in brampton t such a lightening speed. Hence why we got slammed so hard-and-fast with that specific community.That just really we're coming here to work and send money home and that is also why a lot of our banks are now struggling with cash reserved because they're sending money home. So just thought I'd give you that angle. I understand you're doing it from your culture's perspective mostly but you're missing a whole bunch of information. So I thought I'd fill you in actually, brampton used to be a white and black city for a long time, and recent flooded in the last 2 and why it happened from that community so quickly in 2022

Here in eastern Germany, one of the biggest problems that I have found is a difficulty with making German friends and integrating into the community. Even if you learn the language, most people are only friends with people they grew up with or maybe friends from work. So, if you are a freelancer or work from home, you have few opportunities to make friends. People just aren't that open to meet new people and the dating scene is even worse.

I grew up in the country since I was born (I turn 30 next year), and it's the most beautiful place I've ever seen. But I want to leave, because (as an employed electrical engineer), I will never be able to afford a house or a family. And the values of kindness and generosity that seemed an integral part of Canadian society have been replaced by apathy, indifference, and selfishness. People have given up, leadership is completely out of touch, and the general hate for humanity I encounter on a daily - DAILY - basis makes this place almost unliveable.

So I’m an immigrant who arrived from Poland as a child. What made me quickly integrate and become Canadian was the absence of ethnic enclaves. I grew up in social housing, which sucked, but it was with a tonne of Portuguese, El Salvadorians, Colombians and a few Somalis in my hood. The thing is, there was no dominant group, and thus we all had to live together, communicate in English, and adopt universal values and lifestyles that all those groups had in common, rather than those of my home country. I feel these new generations won’t have that same experience.

I lived and worked in TO in a few areas for several years. I left in 2016. I am glad I left before it got bad. I started witnessing more racist comments on subway and platforms were becoming too crowded. After 30 plus years I moved to live in a rural area before moving to live in a similar setting to where I grew up in Oakville. I do love TO and it has so much to offer. I worked downtown and just could not keep up. I spent my spare time walking along the beaches especially Scarborough Bluffs and skating at Harbourfront on a weekday. These are fond memories that I will cherish.\n\n I heard that the shelters were over crowded and unhealthy places. I met a nice man in my building who was successful, lived on street for 13 years before successfully integrating into low-income housing. I learned the most from his stories and met some of the most fabulous people in the worst buildings. I had to leave for safety and mental health reasons. I could not see myself remaining in TO without support. \n\n I made the right move in the right time. Not everyone can afford city living. My quality of life and mental health are better but I cherish the friendships I made in TO. My Grandfather was a Mcleod and I am amazed how much you look like my mother when she was younger. She modeled for Ford and volunteered for a local Vet and hospital. I wish you well. I appreciate your honesty. Since I left, I have driven by TO on 407 a few times. I just didn't have the right mix of education and work to survive in the city any more.

We say anything about immigrants, we are racist so...\n\nWe need to stop, and focus on the ones we have. The amount of immigrants I've met/interacted with(grew up in TO) that don't trust the system, cops or gov cause they never trusted them in their previous country is saddening. Others come, acknowledge where they came from, realize it's a paradise here and intergrates well. \nThe bad AND ignorant ones come here, spread the paranoia, distance and racism. Just redirected from a traumatic past.\nWe were fine with immigration, than the ultra wave of culture shock came, and now it's chaos due to long term culture shock.\nWe need to integrate the ones we have, but libs and gov doesn't want that, they want chaos and they're using some immigrants as pawns and canadians of all races that dont agree as the selected predator.\n It's not about race, gender or creed, because all those are part of the fringe. We are Canadians... and all the haters are just moody tourists(including them ones born here and spreading the hate).\n\nSo if I'm racist, I can live with that. Too much made up stuff now, I'm not even sure if these demons know what racism and discrimination are anymore. ...they certainly don't know what discussion, inclusion and tolerance is.

Brother, You are so right! But, I am a african American who grew up in the 70’s. It wasn’t like this until blacks integrated with whites. We had fun in our neighborhoods just like you described. Any neighbor could correct us. We could just go to the neighbors house to play. I grew up in Chicago and we had block parties with dancing, games, food sand talent shows. We played games in the street after school. When we left our black communities we had to behave like whites who don’t want to socialize with us. That’s what you see where you live. So they suffer and stay inside their houses. I left Chicago for university and moved to Newark, New Jersey and it was life there too! So many cultures, people walking, languages, music, vendors on the street. Puerto Rican’s, Haitians, Dominicans, and Africans. You should be some place like that. But many places in America “now” are boring like where you showed. Move!!!

Here is a perspective by Dr. Peter Hammond. Dr. Hammond’s\ndoctorate is in Theology. He was born in Capetown in 1960, grew up in Rhodesia\nand converted to Christianity in 1977.\n\n\n\n\n\nAdapted from Dr. Peter Hammond's book:\nSlavery, Terrorism and Islam: The Historical Roots and Contemporary Threat:\nIslam is not a religion, nor is it a cult. In its fullest form, it is a\ncomplete, total, 100% system of life.\n\n\n\n\n\nIslam has religious, legal, political,\neconomic, social, and military components. The religious component is a beard\nfor all of the other components.\n\n\n\n\n\nIslamization begins when there are\nsufficient Muslims in a country to agitate for their religious privileges. When\npolitically correct, tolerant, and culturally diverse societies agree to Muslim\ndemands for their religious privileges, some of the other components tend to\ncreep in as well.\n\n\n\n\n\nHere's how it works:\n\n\n\n\n\nAs long as the Muslim population remains\naround or under 3% in any given country, they will be for the most part be\nregarded as a peace-loving Minority, and not as a threat to other citizens.\nThis is the case in:\n\n\n\n\n\nUnited States -- Muslim 2%\n\n\n\n\n\nAustralia -- Muslim 2.5%\n\n\n\n\n\nCanada -- Muslim 2.8%\n\n\n\n\n\nNorway -- Muslim 2.8%\n\n\n\n\n\nChina -- Muslim 2.9%\n\n\n\n\n\nItaly -- Muslim 2.5%\n\n\n\n\n\nAt 3% to 8%, they begin to proselytize from\nother ethnic minorities and disaffected groups, often with major recruiting\nfrom the jails and among street gangs.\n\n\n\n\n\nThis is happening in:\n\n\n\n\n\nDenmark -- Muslim 5%\n\n\n\n\n\nGermany -- Muslim 6.7%\n\n\n\n\n\nUnited Kingdom -- Muslim 7.7%\n\n\n\n\n\nSpain -- Muslim 8%\n\n\n\n\n\nThailand -- Muslim 7.6%\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom 8% on, they exercise an inordinate\ninfluence in proportion to their percentage of the population. For example,\nthey will push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food,\nthereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims. They will increase pressure\non supermarket chains to feature halal on their shelves -- along with threats\nfor failure to comply.\n\n\n\n\n\nThis is occurring in:\n\n\n\n\n\nFrance -- Muslim 12%\n\n\n\n\n\nPhilippines -- 9%\n\n\n\n\n\nSweden -- Muslim 8%\n\n\n\n\n\nSwitzerland -- Muslim 8.3%\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Netherlands -- Muslim 8.5%\n\n\n\n\n\nTrinidad& Tobago -- Muslim 10.8%\n\n\n\n\n\nAt this point, they will work to get the\nruling government to allow them to rule themselves (within their ghettos) under\nSharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate goal of Islamists is to establish Sharia\nlaw over the entire world.\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen Muslims approach 15% of the\npopulation, they tend to increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about\ntheir conditions.\n\n\n\n\n\nIn Paris, we are already seeing\ncar-burnings. Any non Muslim action offends Islam, and results in uprisings and\nthreats, such as in Amsterdam, with opposition to Mohammed cartoons and films\nabout Islam.\n\n\n\n\n\nSuch tensions are seen daily, particularly\nin Muslim sections, in:\n\n\n\n\n\nGuyana -- Muslim 15%\n\n\n\n\n\nIndia -- Muslim 19.4%\n\n\n\n\n\nIsrael -- Muslim 16%\n\n\n\n\n\nKenya -- Muslim 18%\n\n\n\n\n\nRussia -- Muslim 21%\n\n\n\n\n\nAfter reaching 25%, nations can expect\nhair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings, and the\nburnings of Christian churches and Jewish synagogues, such as in:\n\n\n\n\n\nEthiopia -- Muslim 32.8%\n\n\n\n\n\nAt 40%, nations experience widespread\nmassacres, chronic terror attacks, and ongoing militia warfare, such as in:\n\n\n\n\n\nBosnia -- Muslim 40%\n\n\n\n\n\nChad -- Muslim 53.1%\n\n\n\n\n\nLebanon -- Muslim 59.7%\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom 60%, nations experience unfettered\npersecution of non- believers of all other religions (including non-conforming\nMuslims), sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia Law as a weapon,\nand Jizya, the tax placed on infidels, such as in:\n\n\n\n\n\nAlbania -- Muslim 70%\n\n\n\n\n\nMalaysia -- Muslim 60.4%\n\n\n\n\n\nQatar -- Muslim 77.5%\n\n\n\n\n\nSudan -- Muslim 70%\n\n\n\n\n\nAfter 80%, expect daily intimidation and\nviolent jihad, some State-run ethnic cleansing, and even some genocide, as\nthese nations drive out the infidels, and move toward 100% Muslim, such as has\nbeen experienced and in some ways is on-going in:\n\n\n\n\n\nBangladesh -- Muslim 83%\n\n\n\n\n\nEgypt -- Muslim 90%\n\n\n\n\n\nGaza -- Muslim 98.7%\n\n\n\n\n\nIndonesia -- Muslim 86.1%\n\n\n\n\n\nIran -- Muslim 98%\n\n\n\n\n\nIraq -- Muslim 97%\n\n\n\n\n\nJordan -- Muslim 92%\n\n\n\n\n\nMorocco -- Muslim 98.7%\n\n\n\n\n\nPakistan -- Muslim 97%\n\n\n\n\n\nSyria -- Muslim 90%\n\n\n\n\n\nTajikistan -- Muslim 90%\n\n\n\n\n\nTurkey -- Muslim 99.8%\n\n\n\n\n\nUnited Arab Emirates -- Muslim 96%\n\n\n\n\n\n100% will usher in the peace of\n'Dar-es-Salaam' -- the Islamic House of Peace.. Here there's supposed to be\npeace, because everybody is a Muslim, the Madrasses are the only schools, and\nthe Koran is the only word, such as in:\n\n\n\n\n\nAfghanistan -- Muslim 100%\n\n\n\n\n\nSaudi Arabia -- Muslim 100%\n\n\n\n\n\nSomalia -- Muslim 100%\n\n\n\n\n\nYemen -- Muslim 100%\n\n\n\n\n\nUnfortunately, peace is never achieved, as\nin these 100% states the most radical Muslims intimidate and spew hatred, and\nsatisfy their blood lust by killing less radical Muslims, for a variety of\nreasons.\n\n\n\n\n\n'Before I was nine I had learned the basic\ncanon of Arab life. It was me against my brother; me and my brother against our\nfather; my family against my cousins and the clan; the clan against the tribe;\nthe tribe against the world, and all of us against the infidel. -- Leon Uris,\n'The Haj'\n\n\n\n\n\nIt is important to understand that in some\ncountries, with well under 100% Muslim populations, such as France, the\nminority Muslim populations live in ghettos, within which they are 100% Muslim,\nand within which they live by Sharia Law. The national police do not even enter\nthese ghettos. There are no national courts, nor schools, nor non-Muslim\nreligious facilities. In such situations, Muslims do not integrate into the\ncommunity at large. The children attend madrasses. They learn only the Koran.\nTo even associate with an infidel is a crime punishable with death.\n\n\n\n\n\nTherefore, in some areas of certain\nnations, Muslim Imams and extremists exercise more power than the national\naverage would indicate.\n\n\n\n\n\nToday's 2 billion Muslims make up 28% of\nthe world's population. But their birth rates dwarf the birth rates of\nChristians, Hindus, Buddhists, Jews, and all other believers. Muslims will\nexceed 50% of the world's population by 2120.\n\n\n\n\n\nAdapted from Dr. Peter Hammond's book:\nSlavery, Terrorism and Islam: The Historical Roots and Contemporary Threat\n\n\n\n\n\n - one of\nMuhammad's wives was 6 when he married her and 9 when he consummated the\nmarriage.\n\n\n\n\n\n- since 1948, the 21 Arab countries have been involved in 30 wars,\n63 successful revolutions, at least 75 failed revolutions, and the\nassassination of 36 heads of state.\n\n\n\n\n\n- Jihad is the second most important duty of every Muslim.\n\n\n\n\n\n- there may be as many as 25,000 Al-Qaeda supporters in the UK.\n\n- Muslims comprise 4% of the population in Denmark, but consume 40% of the\nwelfare spending.\n\n\n\n\n\n- 75% of the convicted rapists in Denmark are Muslim.\n\n\n\n\n\n- Muslims comprise 95% of the convicted rapists and 85% of the\nconvicted murderers in France and Italy.\n\n\n\n\n\n- the average European woman has 1.5 children, the average Muslim\nwoman living in Europe has 7 children.
