Indian households in Canada make more on average than native Canadians. To be absolutely clear.. this is not an Indian problem its a government problem. They let in anyone who could spell their name. But before that they let in extremely intelligent and hard working folks from India who are currently upholding this country's tech industry. I know this for a fact as I am in tech and have eyes.
Commenter presents economic data about immigrant earnings while criticizing government immigration policy as too permissive, blending economic and policy arguments.

They are definitely gaming the system. It's waaaaay too permissive. It's rough. Systems based on honor and lack of corruption get used when people used to bribery and corruption (most Indian politics, policies, taxes, etc) will use the hell out of it. That's why it works in places like Denmark, Finland, etc. They don't let just ANYONE in, it's actually quite difficult. Nothing wrong with Immigration as long as the immigrants assimilate and do so legally.
Critiques Canadian immigration system as too permissive and compares it to stricter Nordic countries, arguing assimilation and legal processes matter.

Just got back from my first ever cruise and fully enjoyed it. Sat through a few presentations on how the ship actually keeps us all safe and afloat and had a behind the scenes peek at where the amazing crew eat , sleep and socialize. Also learned how they hire and vet their staff, including all background and health checks before they can work for Royal Caribbean (Celebrity). Hey Mr PM, perhaps you could join this board and learn a thing or two on how to “onboard” people to safeguard all.
Commenter shares a personal cruise experience but primarily uses it as a comparative framework to critique Canadian immigration vetting procedures, suggesting the PM learn from corporate onboarding practices.

What a dummy. The tariffs are reciprocal, so if this idiot puts on a larger tariff than the US, the US counters that with the same tariff! He's just raising tariffs on his own country!

So when are you going to talk about your border. When are you going to call an election so we can flush you down the drain and get our country back ? And no we are not going to boo the USA anthem. Trudeau is a disgrace

After a couple of years Trump and co will say, that Canada started a trade war against US. Just like they say, that Ukraine and Zelenskyy started the war with Russia. And now some uf US commentators are saying the same. It’s crazy. And there will be no way to get him to remember the facts. He and all who work for him are liars and half truth tellers. I’m not sure how to deal with this. But it is VERY important for all media outlets to keep reminding the facts. Just tell what happens, so there is a record. I think that could help in the end.\nSo here are my 5p:\nUS started trade war against Canada with 25% tariffs.\nRussia annexed Crimean peninsula and attacked Ukraine in 2022. This is the truth, no two ways about these facts.\nTrump and Vance are liars.
Analyzes US trade war policy and compares it to Russia-Ukraine conflict, arguing for factual record-keeping and criticizing Trump administration's narrative control.

Our government did this to us, specifically the liberal party with their rampant hubris and corruption. As someone who just turned 20, and watched my country get ruined by these people- I’ll not vote for for that party for MANY years until they start partaking in accountability and stop selling the birthright of our younger generation from right under us.
Criticizes Liberal government policy and corruption while announcing voting intentions as a consequence.

A clueless immigration minister fits in well with a clueless electorate . The illegal alien extortionists that have been caught in murder and assault with ilegal handguns have claimed asylum and have about six years of taxpayer funded lawyers to help them remain in Canada. Tim Hortons laid off Canadian full time workers and imported temporary part time workers and the tacpayer pays half their wages. A company worty of a nation wide boycott.
Criticizes immigration minister and asylum/legal system while citing economic concerns about worker displacement and taxpayer costs.

Quit acting like this is a guy who Canadians actually like. Trudeau is massively unpopular and will be gone very soon, when the new Prime Minister of Canada is put in place there will be a deal. Canada has run wild for far too long getting the best of us in every way now that it is fair they act as if they have been doing us favors all along when it has been the other way around.
Criticizes government leadership and policy decisions while framing Canada as having been disadvantaged, combining political critique with nationalist framing.
