The best response is 25 % export tariff on oil and minerals, but then there's a risk that Trump will invade Canada with troops.

As someone from Ottawa Canada who goes to Toronto often, yes there are a lot of Indians in our country and my gripe comes down to how they overrun traditional fast food places we grew up on, but since they have no attachment to it they half ass and don’t make things up to par and make it seem like they’re doing you a favor when you’re paying. So many places are ruined because of this, not just Tim Hortons. However, Tyler postured this as if this is a recent epidemic when Brampton has BEEN known for a lot of Indian immigrants starting in the late 80s and 90s- maybe he mentions this and I missed it or I haven’t got to it yet as I’m midway through the video… Toronto and its areas are very diverse and have been for a long time. Nearby from Brampton in Markham that’s where a lot of Chinese are and you can see it by the business types and you see Chinese lettering under English writing in some places. So why is Tyler acting like this is a rapid epidemic that just started? To ramp you guys up. Again, not denying the fact we have a ton of Indians and have taken in more than ever in the recent years, but these weren’t calm white places that have been overrun like in some of your other videos in Europe, etc.
Critiques both immigration policy outcomes and video framing while asserting Canadian cultural identity tied to traditional establishments, with nuanced historical context.

Trudeau, this is a lame accusation simply run to justify all the following decisions that move US to a totalitarian regime. Trump could give a shit that people are dying from fentynal od

They live in Brampton and commute everywhere in the GTHA and beyond. Their presence isn’t actually a problem, but their behaviour has made their presence a problem. That white man in front of Tim hortons …
They live in Brampton and commute everywhere in the GTHA and beyond. Their presence isn’t actually a problem, but their behaviour has made their presence a problem. That white man in front of Tim hortons is a lil ignorant tho, intelligence may be an issue but I’d say the bigger issue is customer service , communication, understanding and laziness. Cannot be bothered to do their job correctly or maintain a comprehension level higher than a kindergarten student. It’s soooooo problematic.
The comment critiques service quality and worker behavior as systemic issues while acknowledging immigrant presence itself isn't inherently problematic, focusing on institutional/behavioral problems.
