Trudeau is lying, thief and liar. Canadians don’t like him. Is he carrying a mirror? He loves himself. You ate a liar. You bankrupted Canada. I have a lot of relatives there throughout Canada. You were told by millions of Canadians to step down. \nWe Americans have zero respect for Trudeau. Trudeau loves attention! Go sit down, asshole. God bless our President Trump! \nYour border is better because of President Trump, you moron!\nYou are lying. \nYou are a butt kisser, Trudeau… you are taking credit for President Trumps accomplishments. What a clown. But then you are right up CNNs alley. \nYour lies are incredible. \nLie after lie after lie. You could care less about Canadians! Trudeau is a LIAR. This is my opinion based on fact.
Extensive criticism of Trudeau's policies and character, with assertions of Canadian and American public opinion against him.

We let in too many unvetted criminals, because we tried to be too nice. Bad people take advantage of that.... Time to restrict unvetted refugees and immigrants, and time to throw out every criminal without a citizenship. Those, we'll jail ourselves... PS: We DO need immigrants because of our low birthrate (it's negative), and our aging population... BUT, we need to check CHARACTER first. Not colour, just CHARACTER!!!
Argues for stricter vetting and deportation of criminals while acknowledging Canada's demographic need for immigration, emphasizing character over ethnicity.

Not true. Most Canadians want smaller numbers and tighter requirements. The students and TEMPORARY workers think they automatically will get permanent residency, when in fact there are no guarantees..Why these people act like Canada did …
Not true. Most Canadians want smaller numbers and tighter requirements. The students and TEMPORARY workers think they automatically will get permanent residency, when in fact there are no guarantees..Why these people act like Canada did something wrong? Having that many people come is a strain on all our resources and job market. We have a right to decide who we need and want. Store manager is not a job that Canadians won't do.
Critiques immigration policy regarding temporary workers and permanent residency while arguing strain on resources and job market reflects economic concerns.

Immigration levels should be zero until we deport all the illegals in the country and so-called a silent claimers and students who is visas have expired and then we should go back to bringing an immigrants according to their value to our society not the scum of the earth that we're taking in now

Sovereignty is the concept and practice that got us to where we are as a species belonging to countries. Somehow our political leadership decided that sovereignty was no longer a thing and Trudeau simply said "C'mon over..." Our path forward is to purge our nation of illegal immigrants, PRs that aren't hitting the metrics, students with expired visas and of course criminals who are not Canadians. Once we've cleaned house we need to treat our country like the prize that it can be and only invite in those who fit in with our psyche and economic needs. Just because someone shows up at our border doesn't mean that they belong in Canada.
Frames immigration through sovereignty and national identity, proposing deportations and selective admission based on cultural/economic fit while critiquing government leadership.

What about students who used to come with real studying intentions? What about real good schools, with solid programs?

It is the last among developed countries, and now domestic programs are closing down because of not enough financing. Domestic tuition fees rise.
Critiques Canada's international student policy and its negative effects on domestic education funding and reputation.
