well, Canadians will wait eighteen hours in a waiting room with pleasure and not raise the issue because they are afraid of being called mean names. Is that what you are saying? Therefore, if that were the case the health, and safety of Canadians is in question because no one wants to see reality. Canada cannot save the world when the boat is sinking at home. Sad state of affairs and no one wants to address the dangers at home.

Canada is a joke - and over 50% are so brainwashed they support what is going on. It's a sad state of affairs in Canada right now. Glad this is going to have global views - This is a CANADA WIDE issue not just specific to Brampton. Calgary's NE - Brampton - Surrey Etc. If we are going to have such massive immigration I'd like to know why we can't bring in Filipinos, Japanese, and Koreans - They respect culture and work hard! Side note - why does our government support foreigners over supporting our own domestic couples to have children? - Modern day slave labour is the system Canada is running on right now. But you won't see liberals talking about that :)

How about we remove one of those "0" on those numbers relating to imigration!!! Middle class tax cut for those making, $57,000 a year or less, middle class really, that's barely above the poverty line in most parts of Canada for a family! No wonder Canada's in trouble, the Liberals have no friggin idea what anything cost anymore what a sad state of affairs!!!!

Nearly half of the foolish American voters installed this verified criminal as a pretend president once again, knowing damn well the chaos this imbecile caused four years ago. But not all the blame goes to them, the Demo-rat politicians, with their shallow 2024 candidates along with zero support for struggling American Working Class help cause Trump. The corporate elites own the Democrats and the oligarchs control the Republicans. This is the sad state of affairs in 2024 in the United States.

The United states has very quickly lost the respect and TRUST of the entire World. With so much going on in the World right now this makes absolutely no sense. There is literally NO reason for this except to punish Canada. Everyone is already struggling just to make ends meet these days after C0vid and this will RUIN lives. The lives of your once best friend and ally. Canada and the World will not forget this. This is a direct attack on the people of Canada. Disgusting state of affairs . Americans , you better start standing up against this fool before your once amazing country is destroyed from within. Things are already out of hand and only going to get worse. Its very sad.

Sad state of affairs when the only advocate we Americans have comes from another country!\nI wish we had a government that cared about us like Canada cars about their own

For the first time in my life, I believe a foreign leader more than the US president. Sad state of affairs. The US is broken.

My heart breaks for those children. Having to be a part of this and being fearful of what’s happening. Ugh. Such a sad state of affairs that the want to be here so badly and of course now they are panicking. I’m not justifying it just saying it’s actually very sad.

It is indeed becoming more and more tiresome and all countries should shun the practice of demanding advance reservation of flights and hotels before applying for a visa. Indians are travelling more and spending more and these countries are just lining their pockets with illogical procedures. The beneficiaries are the countries hotels and transport agencies whose visa one has applied for a holiday as most of them do not provide refund. A sad state of affairs and a very negative attitude by the countries for a nation which is striding ahead and will soon become one of the most prosperous nation in the world.

Unfortunately I believe more and more Canadians are thinking the same thing. I have lived in Canada all my life and am really looking at leaving the country. If I am thinking this then there are a lot of others thinking the same thing. In the last 10 years of the Liberal leadership has brought a lot of people to the same realization, sad state of affairs where the country is no one would have seen this 10 years ago.

It's a miserable state of affairs.\nThis country is going down so fast and it's sad to see.

15:30 - The professor laughs when she explains that the students don't even have a bed to sleep in. Sad state of affairs.

Inspite of this video - students are still going to apply for student permits to Canada because even though your video is true - there are far more more poor people in India than Canada. Until India reduces its population by a massive amount and improves its nominal per capita GDP to at least 10000 USD - this trend will continue for people to move from a developing to developed country. Sad state of affairs.

The difference between modern mass immigration and immigration of the past is so stark. My great grandfather came over fleeing fascist Italy and built a tile and terrazzo business on blood, sweat and tears. It has employed members of my family the last 4 generations alongside 100's of other employees the past 75 years. They have paid millions in taxes and helped build up the community in a literal and metaphoric sense. \n\nToday, most immigrants are allowed entry to boost profit margins in academia while offering little in terms of viable skills outside of the service industry. What a sad state of affairs.

It's sad that so many Canadians have to move from their hometowns/provinces in droves to financially survive and get ahead a little. Unfortunately, the droves of people fleeing Ontario and BC are driving up prices now (to buy/rent) in other parts of Canada like Alberta and Atlantic Canada where this is having a trickle effect creating Albertans, Nova Scotians, etc. to be homeless and strains on their provincial healthcare systems. It's a sad state of affairs, and I do not think a politician can fix this, unless they start demanding more and curtailing the power of corporations. A big rebalance needs to occur, but it seems unlikely when politicians and business leaders are on the same side (aka corruption / conflict of their own interests). Canada needs a division between government and business which is the case in many Scandinavian countries.

Canada is being run into the ground on all fronts. Currently a sad state of affairs here. The system is failing both citizens AND immigrants/refugees. Heartbreaking. The bureaucracy is a disgrace :(

Sad state of affairs, thanks to Mr. Trudeau.

Immigration was fine up until the Liberals decided to become globalists. Before that all immigrants were united under the Canadian flag. The Canadian experience, being Canadian, and honoring the Canadian tradition were all real things. Then the Liberals came along and pushed Canada into becoming a multicultural state where everyone became a hyphenated Canadian. Fast forward to today and the hundreds of cultures in Canada are all in Silos, caring more about their original homeland over their adopted home. They've even brought their ancient disputes with them. It's a sad state of affairs. Ultimately designed to divide people, kill the Canadian identity and keep Liberals in power indefinitely.

Last December, I spent THREE DAYS in the Emergency dept waiting for a bed and to be admitted. My ailment? I was suffering from bacterial pneumonia. They bungled my medication as well. Canada's healthcare system is a joke. I was born in Canada and have watched the deterioration of our once once-vaunted OHIP system fall apart through mismanagement. Sad state of affairs indeed. That's just the tip of the Iceberg. How our nation treats veterans who have served our country and those with debilitating disabilities is atrocious.

the world is falling apart this is the end my friends, nobody wants to live in South America, Central America the United States government should just take it over what are we going to do with all the land nobody wants to live down there, it's really a sad State of affairs for the world that economically no one can make a decent living in these countries.

We exploit the fuck out of their country and collude with their most corrupt politicians and businessman and they have basically ran it dry. Now other people are desperate and coming here for help and we’re turning them away. Pretty ironic and pretty sad. By the way I agree that they need to immigrate like anyone else. It’s just a sad state of affairs and we’re completely two-faced as a country.

Man I feel sorry for the officers as well as the desperate folks. This is really a sad state of affairs

So sad state of affairs. Wish Americand do the same thing... ???
