Many of Americans do not want this. This is all Maga and Donald Trump. He has placed all American lives in danger. He is not fit to be our President.

A concern is the pivot toward foreign military recruitment. If extortion and fraud isn't enough of a problem now, consider future disloyaly risks with our military. And here we go again, with 'express entry' and even an invitation to reply. Watch that back door.
Also, way too much money is leaving the country. It's not just about attracting investment but getting it to stay. The immigration policies, ironically, are 'not' diversified.
Detailed critique of immigration and military recruitment policies with concerns about fraud, disloyalty, and capital flight.

It’s sad that they give visas to these people instead of people who deserve them. I think visa regulations and conditions should be much stricter, so only deserving people get them.😢

Funny, if there is such shortage why the hell I am not getting a job interview (even in places like walmart) for the past six months. The channel should focus on the unemployed citizens rather than future immigrants.
Challenges the labor shortage narrative by citing personal job-seeking failure and criticizing media focus on immigrants over citizens.

It’s easy, liberal government who is following a global agenda to create chaos and anarchy in many countries and what Trump is doing needs to be done. Fix immigration laws, everyone must be adding to the country with skills that get let in. We need to deport everyone that isn’t providing any real value. Reverse this shit, religious extremism, put them back in their own countries, they act like animals and barbarians kick them out. It’s simple but the idiot boomers because their lives are set think that the world is rainbows and unicorns so they voted liberal.
Primarily critiques government immigration policy and calls for deportations and stricter laws, with secondary elements of fear-based rhetoric about extremism and demographic threat.

Trudeau! Nobody likes you. You’re done. We want to vomit when you speak. You are a disgrace to this Country. You’ve ran our country into the gutter, killing hundreds of thousands of Canadian citizens with your reckless policies and corrupt agenda’s. Stop playing the victim you wounded narcissist. Canada deserves these tariffs. This is all on you. I pray daily that this country will be saved. The light keeps getting brighter as we inch closer to that election! Thank god for Pierre Poilievre!! And we love you Donald Trump!
The comment attacks Trudeau's policies as harmful and reckless, calling for electoral change and expressing strong disapproval of his governance.
