The Indian people are nice dont get me wrong, but the issue is there are to many of them and alot of them dont want to lwarn our language after moving here and they start businesses but only hire other Indians because of the language barrier. They are also buying up all the houses and alot of them will only rent to their own making it very difficult for Canadians to find houses to rent. Even half the realtors are indian. We have no jobs left very few houses and its makkng Canadians go homeless
Makes multiple specific claims about immigrant behavior (language, hiring, housing) and economic impact (job scarcity, homelessness) without evidence, blending economic grievance with unsubstantiated assertions.

White peole think they are too good to work at timhortons. Literally brown ones are the inky ones who want to work there. And on top of that they’ll be working two jobs at a time. Keep the people who work and pay taxes get rid of all those who don’t (homeless drug addicts)
