Enough - we are full. If it was done properly no problem. I have heard from them that Canada is a joke. We need quality, not quantity!!!! GET THEM OUT ALREADY AND FIRE THOSE RESPONSIBLE

You should then also discuss that a lot of companies are attracting these 'knowledge' workers and the goverment plays a big part of in it too. Its all just dumb. Companies want cheap labor, lobby with goverment, goverment agrees because of international competativeness..... and bamm 1 family turns in to, 2 into 10, into 20 etc. But no body is holding companies responsible, and the people who live there are getting f*cked but not by the immigrants, its the businesses in their own country that lobbied like a mf to get these people here.

Non of the liberal's immigration ministers were responsible and did not do anything to stop mass immigration and fake asylum seekers!

Of course the Liberals don't know what is going on. If they knew what was going on then they could be held accountable and it appears that is something no Liberal wants. They don't want to take responsibility ever for anything that they do and they rely on equally inept voters to keep them in office. As to the subject at hand, Canadians should not be responsible for immigrants or people claiming asylum health costs for anything past their first 6 months here. Going past 6 months indicates that they have yet to gain employment and are living off our backs. Those who are still here after being turned back should be located and sent packing immediately regardless of their present standing. For example, someone came here and was rejected but never left. Today they get picked up and now they claim they have a family here. They should still be removed because if they had left when they were supposed to they wouldn't have that family now would they. Yes, it may appear to be harsh but is it not harsh to use the funds provided by people who have a legal right to be here to support those who never should have been here?

It's not race that makes countries great or bad. Since there is just one human race. Its the culture that makes places great. Culture or shared ideas among the populace. Specially ideas of being open minded, living and letting live, freedom, being tolerant etc. These are the best ideas or culture that if held long enough by the majority of the people will turn that place into a great civilization indeed. Every great civilization of history was built through this culture in history. persian empire, macedonian empire, roman empire, british empire and now the united states etc... were/are all very diverse and very tolerant of indians and their ideas... cultural exchange of ideas through indians and receiving diverse viewpoints which helped them become great. However great empires, great places and civilizations never last. They fall down. They fall down once the culture changes. which is natural since culture is not static but dynamic, since it exists only in the minds of people, it can change in the same generation, or in the next - all it takes is replacing existing ideas with other ideas in the minds of people large enough. This is what we are seeing happening in canada and India... a shift of culture. The same culture of responsible for turning India into a terrible country is being adopted by canadians. Meanwhile for the past few decades.. india on the other hand has been adopting the better culture and growing slowly and steadily with many mistakes and hurdles along the way towards a brighter future... slowly because its huge... steadily because it knows where to go.... mistakes and hurdles because its an open democracy... If this cultural shift keeps continuing this way... There will come a time where canada would look more like afghanistan and India will look like the us or scandinavia... However i hope thats not the case. and its just a phase that does not lead to some significant revolution in terms of peoples thinking.

I wonder if it was Carney's strategy to purposely put an incompetent person in charge of this file. That way she takes the blame for everything that Miller, Fraser, et al were responsible for and screwed up on over the last decade.

Yes, Canada’s asylum system is currently facing intense scrutiny due to record-high claim volumes and allegations of systemic fraud. THE SCALE OF THE PROBLEM Backlog Explosion: The inventory of pending asylum claims has surged significantly, reaching approximately 300,000 active cases as of late 2025. Rising Claim Volumes: Annual claims reached a record 190,000 in 2024, though they decreased by about a third in early 2025 following new policy measures. Removal Gap: Criticisms have been raised regarding the low rate of deportations; reports indicate that 86% of rejected claimants remain in Canada. SOURCES OF "BOGUS" CLAIMS International Student Surge: There has been an "alarming trend" of international students claiming asylum to remain in the country after their study permits expire or in response to new caps on student visas. Fraud Networks: Investigations have highlighted vulnerabilities where unauthorized agents and transnational fraud networks counsel migrants to submit fabricated narratives or forged documents. "Rubber-Stamping" Allegations: A recent report by the C.D. Howe Institute warned that a paper-based "fast-track" system for certain high-risk countries may be bypassing essential security screenings and in-person questioning. ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL IMPACT Healthcare Costs: The Interim Federal Health Program (IFHP), which provides medical benefits to claimants, saw its budget jump from roughly $66 million to over $1 billion annually. Policy Shift: To reduce incentives for non-genuine claims, the government is introducing a co-pay system for supplementary health services (like dental and vision) starting May 1, 2026. CONSEQUENCES OF FRAUD For individuals, filing a "bogus" or misrepresented claim carries severe penalties: A five-year ban from entering or remaining in Canada. Permanent record of fraud with Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). Loss of current temporary or permanent resident status

Immigration is a federal responsibility, not provincial and Canada should remain a welcoming country to all immigrants imo, but, if you're here on a work or student visa, newcomers should have to prove employment, training, full-time enrollment, and residency on a quarterly basis. It would drastically limit people becoming ghosts in the system. Refugees and asylum seekers should be allowed 1 appeal only and removed immediately if their claim has been denied. A 90-day grace period should be enacted to get their paperwork and affairs in order. If you're here for a better life, steps should be taken to ensure you're actively trying to accomplish that goal until citizenship is granted. Jmho.

Who are responsible for all these total mess! Absolutely Justin Trudeau and his team.

Government is also responsible for a lot

Sometimes I don’t understand why people create content online that highlights specific communities or cultures in ways that can reinforce stereotypes. Just because someone belongs to a certain background doesn’t mean they represent everything shown on social media. Content like this can make others form generalized opinions, which can feel unfair and frustrating for individuals who don’t relate to those portrayals. The internet gives everyone a platform, but with that comes responsibility. Before creating content about communities, it’s important to remember that cultures are diverse and complex, and no single video can define them. At the end of the day, being respectful and human should come first. Which ethnicity you belong to , I can find 1000 flaws in your ethnicity. Just be humans . YouTube gives you leverage to talk shit. @TylerOliveira

Immigration policy is a federal responsibility, ensuring fairness. Why is it so confusing to so many to understand that Alberta is a province, not a country? A province that undermines consistent national standards weakens the sense of unity that holds a country together. When one province seeks to separate itself from the shared framework, divisions will arise, and policies will be driven by local political pressures rather than the broader national interest.

Hey Danielle, do these people you are trying to kick out of our social programs pay taxes and contribute to these programs? Why should they have to pay twice? I have a better idea, how about you implement responsible fiscal policy instead of fear mongering against immigrants. It may be a good idea to regain the revenue you lost when you cut corporate taxes.

Immigration is not a provincial power, it is the sole responsibility of the federal government. Therefore this referendum is an utter waste of time and money. Danielle Smith deal with the problems of your province such as Education and Healthcare! Stop creating problems!

I support the Alberta government focusing on unattended provincial responsibilities. This is just pandering and scapegoating their failures by getting you to focus on federal elephants. Do what you can and should be doing instead of this dog and pony show. Alberta needs attention now!

Alberta is a province. Immigration to Canada is a federal responsibility. If Alberta wants to compete for those workers, they will need to improve public services, and assure workers are paid enough to afford to live there. Alberta is an expensive place to live. I know that from experience. Alberta also benefits from the education and investments made by Canada. And Alberta benefits from the pipeline that Justin Trudeau forced through. SO STOP WHINING. AND stop sounding so much like trumpler the king of Kraznovia.

This cannot happen soon enough. Canadians are dieing in vast numbers on our highways from these folks unable to drive in our systems. Cars are stolen in large numbers, extortion is rampant, home invasion is at an all time high. These folks obviously are not responsible for all of it but they play a big part in the problem. The obvious protesters that are interfering with everyday life and the obvious hatred towards certain groups needs to be dealt with. Send them home since they do not appreciate being canadian.

Just like with the rest of our problems here in Canada 🇨🇦; we can’t keep saying “it’s not as bad as the U.S, so it’s ok. No need to panic” - this attitude has to end. The standard shouldn’t be that low. We can do better. Responsible Canadians shouldn’t lose their gun rights because of foreign pirates and gangsters.

Now that a large portion of us real Canadians are starting to feel the negative effects of this 3rd invasion we are enduring the agencies responsible for protecting our borders are NOW going to start doing their jobs eh? But let me guess. It will be half measures and a half assed commitment with no real enforcement. I have zero faith in this country.

Blame the immigration officials, they did open the doors for criminals who came from India and other foreign countries. Refugees that have criminal records were given access by the government to step in here in Canada. Blame immigration officials and the authorities that are responsible in keeping our PEACE AND ORDER.

Federal immigration laws caused the problem to begin with . Ever notice the government and media never admit any wrong doing or take responsibility for any wrong doing .

100% immigration department and justice system is responsible for it?

When are Canadian people gonna hold our government responsible for this? Trudope and carney

Marriages of convenience was rampant before Harper destroying young Canadians' lives. Fake refugees would swoon naive girls into marriage saddling them with parental and financial responsibilities that they couldn't handle all with the blessing of the Liberal government. America gave these cases ten years to see if they would leave where as Canada gave just a few months. Just another example of Liberals putting the interests of non citizens above citizens.

I hope Canada learnt it's lesson now on RESPONSIBLE & VETTED immigration!

Liberal policies are responsible to Canada's disasters, but never interested in changing policies to improve Canadians way of life..Government is to work for the people, not for the politicians wallets..

Please help me understand why mass migration is considered beneficial. I believe globalization has very significant drawbacks. My primary concern is for my fellow Canadians "ONLY." It seems that the increase in new residents is driven largely by political motives, as new migrants often support the Liberal Party due to the benefits they receive upon arrival. Both the Liberal government in Canada and the Democrats in the United States appear to be aware of this trend. Regardless of political affiliation—whether Liberal, Conservative, Green, or any other party—if my party were to adopt such a policy, I would oppose it. Canadians really need to wake up. We need responsible citizenship that upholds and strengthens our Canadian culture and values.

Decades ago I remember the argument "you're not allowing the parents of immigrants to come to Canada" and the response of "that will destroy the CPP"' being discussed in the news and Parliament for quite some time. Seems we've gone from one small ditch on one side straight over the cliff's edge on the other now.

Indians make up just 5.1% of Canada’s population according to 2021 census, can someone explain how can this overpower other communities, yet we’re often the easiest target for blame. Instead of taking responsibility, some choose to point fingers. Behind every smile is struggle, loneliness, and silent battles but we still wake up every day and work twice as hard without complaining

For you to know there are many white people & families coming & living in India nowadays. This video is aimed at degrading a community openly. Managing Immigration is a government responsibility.

Jobs are gone Affordable housing is gone resources disappeared one thing only left cold weather ☁️ I sent nearly 600 resumes no response 🙇😞

As a Canada who speaks both French and English and who follows politics quite closely, I have to say that the headline and some of the reporting here is quite misleading. A reduction in immigration has broad support across Canada. I wouldn't say that notion is dividing the country in any significant way. You do have certain industry groups that disagree, but among the population these reductions have broad support. This is a historic change in public opinion in Canada, but it has been driven by the unprecedented increase in immigration under the last term of the Trudeau government. To put this in context, non-permanent residents in Canada numbered around 1.5 million on Q3 2023, but by Q3 2025, that number sat a just over 3 million. The previous government increased immigration targets by 3 or 4 times over what they had been for years, which caused a number of economic issues. Essentially, the volume was simply too high for the economy and society to support. This was unfair to both Canadians and new comers, many of which could not find employment or afford a decent place to live. The changes being suggested are largely bringing Canada back to what the targets were for over a decade before, though a bit lower to account for the sudden surge. Canada remains one of the most pro-immigration countries in the world. However, and this is where I think DW's reporting is misleading, there is a distinction to be made between policies at the federal level and policies at the provincial level. Immigration, per our constitution, is a federal matter, however, Quebec in particular is distinct from other provinces. I don't mean only culturally and linguistically, but also in the powers that have been devolved to it by the federal government. On the question of immigration, Quebec has more powers and more ability to set its immigration targets and programs than any of the other 9 provinces. The particular program discussed here, the Quebec Experience Program (PEQ), is a particular immigration stream that only existed in Quebec. So what is happening with that program cannot be labeled as a whole-of-Canada thing. Where the changes to the PEQ are controversial, unlike the general changes at the federal level, is that people who immigrated under that specific program were promised certain things. There was a multi-year time line to Permanent Residency and then Citizenship. Many of those people have been in Quebec for 5-8 years already. However, the changes made to the program were done in such a way where people who many years into the program, had gotten an education, started a career, had children, ect. are now being told they can't continue and must leave Canada. There are even stories of people who married Canadians, now have children, and the one parent who was under this program now faces the possibility of having to leave Canada and be separated from their family. All through no fault of their own. That is what many people see as unfair, and I agree, however limiting future applications under the program, to bring in less people, that is not controversial. Canada has no responsibility to bring in people who are not already in Canada, but Canada does have some responsibility towards people who uprooted their lives to move to Canada and built new lives here based on promises and representations made to them by the Canadian and Quebecois governments. We should no simply kick those people out of the country.

Yeah and we all know who is to blame for this. Justin Trudeau, Sean Frasier and Marc Miller. Funny how politicians in this country aren’t held responsible for the bad decisions they make that seriously affect Canadian lives. Canadians have lost their homes and their jobs because of mass immigration.

Before 2015, Canada had virtually zero illegal immigration. Today, by the government’s own data, that number has surged to roughly 500,000. Worse still, official projections show that by the end of 2026, another 2.1 million temporary residents will see their status expire, many at risk of slipping into illegality. This failure of policy has already fueled a growing underground economy across the country. Deporting just 20,000 people a year is a drop in the bucket. *The only credible response* from the Carney government demands decisive action—raising *deportation* numbers to well over 100,000 annually to restore integrity to the system.

CEO of Youtube was def responsible for this video getting taken down

🏡Indian real estate agents - 🚩please explain why almost all listings on RealtorD0Tca for Toronto, Canada are under Indian Real estate agents? They try to take over all real estate. They get a lot of homes through mortgage fraud (watch the CDC report), to rent out as rooming houses, and they are a big reason for the housing shortage. Please do not buy from them if they are the selling agent. They are known to put harmful hidden clauses in the documents to get more money out of you than the list price, then you find out after the sale closes. They did this to one lady who bought her first home, and when the details were revealed AFTER closing, she had to file for BANKRUPTCY to clear her name and start her financial life again. DO NOT do the deal if they are the selling agent, and NEVER sign any paperwork they give you. We call it P----i paperwork. Do not sign it. Period. If they are the selling agent, walk away. Please spread the word. Their behavior is an ORGANIZED assault on the Canadian real estate and financial system, and it demands Canadians to deliver an organized response in rejection of this behavior. Boycott.

People are dying in car accident and getting stabbed walking home from work and Canadians response is "hahaha yeah it sucks eh" fucking embarrassing

I got bad news for you braindead fake vaccinated sheep; canada has ALWAYS been a brown country for tens of thousands of years. White people never owned this land and still dont. The entitlemtn u feel is brainwashing from the jews because u are a dumbass goy that's easy to manipulate.. and now they are manipulatinf you to fight other cultures when EVERYONE knows what group is responsible for all the of worlds problems. The deepstate.

This is how it works: They don't smuggle you bro❗️ Routine is to bring a female inside in a few hours to wait along with you for crossing. Then their female thieving friend would shout and scream accusing you of stealing her moneyor touching her inappropriately. In response to which you will get beaten up and they steal all your money and documents They will throw you out knowing that you are scared of them and the cops. They usually pull this shit on Africans.

The Bike guy is spewing objectively false things about Africans using Richard Lynn IQ data which is disproven: Why "National IQ" Data is Fraudulent 1. The Data is Factually Fraudulent (Sample Bias) Richard Lynn did not use representative samples. For example, he famously assigned Equatorial Guinea an average IQ of 59 based on a group of children in a Spanish home for the developmentally disabled, then claimed that score represented the entire country. Peer-reviewed studies by researchers like Jelte Wicherts proved that Lynn systematically ignored higher-scoring African studies (some in the 80s and 90s) to keep his "averages" artificially low. If you judge a country’s intelligence by testing its hospitals and orphanages, you aren't a scientist—you're a fraud. 2. Nutrition is the "Hardware" of the Brain Intelligence cannot develop without biological fuel. As of 2026, roughly 30% of children in Sub-Saharan Africa suffer from stunting due to chronic malnutrition. Science proves that iodine and iron deficiencies alone can drop a population's IQ by 10–15 points. You aren't measuring "race"; you are measuring starvation. 3. The Education Gap (Abstract Reasoning) IQ tests do not measure "raw brain power." They measure Western-style schooling. Studies show that for every single year of formal education, a person’s IQ score increases by 1 to 5 points. Comparing the scores of people in countries with 30% literacy rates to people with PhDs in the West is like comparing the "athletic ability" of a runner to someone who has never been given shoes. 4. The "Age and War" Factor The median age in many African nations is under 20, compared to over 40 in Europe. These tests are often administered to children and adolescents in areas plagued by toxic stress from war and displacement. Peer-reviewed research confirms that trauma and PTSD physically impair the parts of the brain responsible for the logic puzzles found on IQ tests. 5. The Flynn Effect (The Death of the Racial Argument) If IQ were "innate" and "racial," it would never change. However, as nutrition and education improved in the West over the last 100 years, average IQ scores jumped by nearly 30 points. This is called the Flynn Effect. African scores are currently rising at the same rate as they develop. The "gap" is a development gap, not a genetic one. Conclusion: Using Richard Lynn’s data doesn't make you a "truth-teller"; it means you fell for a man so biased that his own university revoked his emeritus status for scientific or incompetence and racism. You are confusing privilege—access to food, safety, and a classroom—with innate ability.

Worst thing that ever happened to Canada. I can't even begin to describe how my community has changed. I don't even recognize it anymore. Spent my entire life in a small town and for some unknown reason it is part of a "designated resettlement zone." There are more Indians than whites - it's insane. Local businesses have closed, new businesses catering to Indians have opened. Littering is rampant. Homes aren't taken care of. It's a tragedy. 70% of Canadians don't want these levels of immigration - hell, even *immigrants* don't want more immigrants. Justin Trudeau, his Liberal government, and the traitors over at the Century Initiative are 100% responsible for this irrevocable destruction of Canadian culture.

I’m a proud Indian who is now a Canadian citizen, and I’ve made a conscious effort to assimilate into Canadian culture and values. What bothers me is how this conversation has been reduced to blaming one group. The reality is that the Canadian government failed first by not properly managing immigration volumes, not enforcing document verification, and not honestly assessing whether the country could support such rapid population growth. That policy failure created pressure on housing, jobs, and social systems long before resentment followed. We also need honesty within the Indian community. Some Indians struggle to adapt being overly loud, culturally rigid, and sometimes lacking empathy for Canadian norms and shared public spaces. I studied Canadian and Indigenous history in school, and respecting that history matters. Assimilation doesn’t mean abandoning your culture, but it does mean understanding and respecting the society you chose to join. Cultural education should be expected, not optional. That said, one Indian doing something wrong does not make all Indians bad. Most Indian students and workers I know are hardworking, punctual, and serious about contributing. I’ve personally worked minimum-wage jobs for years, and what I noticed was not jobs being “taken,” but fewer Canadian youth willing to stay in or commit to these roles long-term. Indians didn’t replace Canadians, they filled vacancies that already existed. I also briefly volunteered helping the homeless, and what I saw was honestly shocking. It’s not that the government isn’t trying to help there are rehabilitation programs and support systems in place. The difficult truth is that a significant portion of the homeless population struggles with substance abuse and refuses treatment because it requires giving up drugs. Over time, homelessness itself starts to function like a culture, where benefits and assistance unintentionally enable continued substance use rather than recovery. This is an uncomfortable reality people don’t like to talk about. None of this is simple. Immigration didn’t break Canada, and neither did one community. Poor policy, weak enforcement, lack of accountability, and refusal from governments and individuals to adapt responsibly is what brought us here. Blame is easy. Honest solutions are not.

All people except the Native people are immigrants or offspring of immigrants. Absolutely, embracing diversity and promoting equality are essential steps toward creating a more inclusive and harmonious society. Recognizing that everyone has unique backgrounds and perspectives can enrich our communities and foster understanding. Working together to build a better future for ourselves and generations to come is a shared responsibility that benefits us all. We cannot label people based on our perception. Everyone should earn an honest living and be kind to people around them. That is what makes us Canadian - the kind and polite.

4:56 Generalizing people by race or religion is ignorant. Muslims are some of the kindest and most charitable people I’ve met, and Islam strongly promotes respect, protection of women, and moral responsibility.

India is exporting its population instead practcing any type of birth control education and i dont believe the world should be responsible for providing them jobs and pay

Illegal immigration and even legal migration from the third world are orchestrated by certain interests. They do this to destroy our nations. Most of the NGO's responsible for funneling all of them in are in from a certain ethnicity, Elon helped cover this all up when he took over DOGE. It was a diversion. We are second in power now, they have infiltrated the USA from within. Every wonder why you didn't get to vote on it? Their plan is this, convince America migrants are good and to accept them, water down the nation to weaken them, it becomes racist to say anything against them, weaponize the police against them, and implement laws criticizing it, make it impossible to say in the workplace. Then you basically win for the enemy of Whites. America has been occupied, we are officially under a foreign dictatorship like Russia. Look who controls Russia, it's not Whites...

Not wanting your country to become Somalia, Africa, Mexico, India is not racist. Not wanting them in your government is not racist. Not wanting a bunch of any welfare dependent foreigners is not racist. Notice how only white western countries are being morally gaslit into believing its their responsibility to take care of the entire world.

For someone who presents himself as a “journalist,” this is a deeply dishonest piece of work. The framing is not subtle: loaded titles, racial counting, selective locations, and deliberately uneven questioning all push the same conclusion. Immigrants are interrogated about their presence and legality, while others are invited to pass judgment on them. When racial stereotypes are voiced, you don’t challenge them — you laugh. That’s not an accident, and it’s not neutral. You clearly understand that housing shortages, sanitation issues, and infrastructure strain are the result of policy failures and poor planning. Yet you repeatedly avoid those causes because blaming systems doesn’t generate clicks the way racial implication does. Reducing complex, structural problems to identity isn’t investigative — it’s lazy, cynical, and intellectually shallow. When a city worker gives a grounded response that doesn’t fit the narrative you’re pushing, it’s brushed aside. When visuals can be used to imply blame, they’re highlighted. That pattern makes the “just asking questions” defense ring hollow. This isn’t exposing truth — it’s manufacturing outrage and calling it journalism. With your reach, that’s not just irresponsible, it’s embarrassing. You're not a journalist but just a racist. That's all

The contrast between immigrants, many from India, and the rhetoric of those who now feel like a new minority was striking. It should not surprise me that racism appears anywhere humans are, but what stood out was how some speakers treated all Indians as a single people, despite hundreds of cultures, and accused them of failing to assimilate to ‘their way.’ Many of those voices were themselves descendants of immigrants who were once pressured to abandon Norwegian or other identities in the name of assimilation. Yet there was little evidence they had actually spent time getting to know their Indian neighbors, their cultures, friendships, or daily realities. Instead, the focus was fear and a narrative of societal collapse, rather than honest engagement that separates real local issues from blanket blame. Of course, any local community can have problems, and some groups can be unwelcoming. But the argument presented implied there is only one way to be Canadian. That echoes xenophobic rhetoric in the US about who counts as ‘American,’ often while ignoring the reality of Indigenous peoples entirely. I do not deny the importance of shared commitments like the rule of law, freedom, and evidence based policy rooted in the Enlightenment and scientific thinking. But culture and learning can coexist with those values. What troubled me most was how poverty and discrimination were replaced with racial generalizations, and how victim language was used to deflect responsibility, something that resembles DARVO. Given the same conditions, these problems could arise in any group, regardless of race.

You just have to watch how people drive in India! It is not a no brainer! The Canadian government t needs to make sure they make these bad drivers to be accountable. The liberal government is responsible because of their laws. Criminals running rampant and doing what they want, because there is no consequences! THANK YOU LIBERALS🤡🤡🤡🤡
