Sorry, but you are wrong about crime in Toronto. Yes, there were some random murders -- but if you research your history, you will find that these rare randoms have happened in the past. Toronto is statistically THE safest city of its size in North America. Homicies overall have decreased in the past three years. Toronto remains a city in which I would walk anywhere, day or night. It really is that safe. And yes, I get that I'm a guy and that makes a difference. But still, where else can you say that? Certainly not in any American city of any size.

I’m Canadian, my parents didn’t have $28k to give me to go to university. So I’m sorry these ppl think that going to school in Canada is some magic ticket to a successful career making great money, but why should Canadians feel bad for these ppl? Yes u were sold a lie, that North America is some magical land of hope, it’s not, there are millions of ppl in the west who can’t afford university, and have to work their entire lives as janitors and labourers with no savings for retirement, nothing to offer their children, I don’t feel bad thst these ppl are being mislead by Canadian universities, so are we, so many college and university programs are a scam,

I’m Hispanic and I don’t appreciate this behavior from people coming to this country in this manner. It’s not sustainable and it’s going to throw the country off balance. These people need to go back and try to overthrow their government and restart the country with a better crop of politicians. I’m sorry for saying this but, America can’t keep bailing out every country in the world by taking in all their people. ???

I'm so sorry to hear what you guys went through. I always thought Canada was the best when it came to nice people but I was wrong. \nAs for country options, definitely check out China, it is such a beautiful and peaceful country. You will deal with little to no racism there. \nCountries to avoid: America ?

Most immigrants say the same. I’m in usa and hearing this everyday. Sorry but you’re wrong. Maybe these countries are not as good as we thought but they are still far better. I’m a 35 y/0 studying law because i can in America

I’m sorry but why does everyone always wanna migrate to America or England there r hundreds of countries ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

We need to stop being so light on the open fire for illegals forcing themselves onto us. I’m sorry. There is a right and wrong way to do that things. Demand from your own government what you demand from America!!

I'm sorry but I'll be pissed off if they let these people in. Fix your own people America is falling apart!

I'm Sorry to say in America We Are to free to let everyone over here especially the Mexican We All have Problem in our Country We faced Adversity hardships trial and tribulation Stay in your Country and face Y'all Situation Do many of you can't comes over here and get what we need to get Jobs,Cars and So much more y'all are taking from American People Sorry to say it true STAY IN MEXICO WE ALL HAVE PROBLEM FACE YOUR WE WILL BE PRAYING FOR YOUR COUNTRY TO BR RESTORED JESUS LOVES YOU AND DO DO WE ST.JOHN -3-16

As an American, I'm sorry our private healthcare system has taken your doctors. What's even more scary about that statistic is many Americans can't even afford the doctors we have, so at least Canadians have equal healthcare opportunities even though they have to wait. Many Americans don't even get the luxury to wait. If only America caught up to public healthcare policies the global system would be more fair and we'd have people becoming doctors because they love it, not because it makes them rich.

Tyler! I'm sorry, but you're wrong. Guns are now the number one cause of death of American children and absolutely a factor for many Canadians as to why we'd never live there. As a mixed race family, I would fear for my husband's and children's lives on a daily basis. If it isn't in the schools, it's at malls, concerts, shopping centers, Walmart, everywhere!! Not to mention police brutality, specifically toward black men in America. It's a giant nope sandwich for me. Add to that the lack of socialized Healthcare and failing public education system, there's a reason we fly OVER the US and head straight to the southern America's or overseas even for vacations. Nothing about the US seems safe for our family.

I'm sorry, I would never live in America. Far too xenophobic and dangerous.

Etown sucks! Try Calgary it's way better than Edmonton. Sorry to inform you girl but racism is real and is everywhere in North America! Being black in Canada or the USA is alot easier than being native American. I'm on your side but the reality is the indigenous peoples of North America have it worse than black people. Racism is a reality of life because white people have been taught that they are superior since birth and even if they are not taught that their white privilege eventually shows through.

I'm sorry but HELL NAW!!!! We have kids and ppl over here having major surgeries and can't even get help or assistance for the first time ever needing help like me and my family right now!. It's just not fair!!! What the Hell man!?? Why doesn't America take care of home first!!?? Us Americans should always come first!!!! #SMDH We are suffering enough ??

Honestly, I'm so sorry the people in Mexico are suffering but PLEASE don't come to America. There is not enough housing for our people AND theirs. There is not enough resources for our people AND theirs. We're trying to survive here too and coming here is making it harder for everyone else here in a similar position.

I'm sorry but America isn't what it seems, sadly, it isn't worth coming here. I just want to leave America, but that is up to God.

I'm sorry why does America have to fix everyone else problems..we can't even fix our own corrupt government seriously..you all need to fight in your own country... this country is getting out of control already and over populated...why is it always america and at are expense..fix and do something with your own country and government..why do we have to always get involved and hated ...then we let them in, give them hand outs then a lot of them are ungrateful and put the people that actually grew up here from generation to generation get treated bad..I'm all for the borders and eviction needs to happen..we should all get along but not this way..\nFix and fight for where you were born in... this is Insanity.. the whole world is going nuts..we are in the last days and Jesus is coming ready for war...be ready put him first and find him before it's too late

Fuck that don’t let them in I’m sorry but America has enough problems already we can’t always be a safe haven to refugees sooner or later people gotta learn to defend themselves against their own governments.

Why don’t they fight back!!! Give them weapons and let them fight for there country it’s what we would do here in America take your country back quit running away being cowards looking for us to help I’m sorry America is over there heads already and this must be stopped!!

I’m sorry but please don’t come in illegally. Our tax dollars go straight to you as hand me downs and you end up not working to repay that debt. Just, please stay in your country. If you want to come to America, come in LEGALLY.

Sorry to say but originally this is a free world that's how god made it. Laws create borders . Without law unfortunately the world would be a zoo it's a hard pill to swallow especially when u are Latino an u see this. I don't understand why Venezuela an south America is so poor now . They need better laws more resources new order every country should learn from the us . ? White Americans will never no how it's feels to a migrant a minority so I really don't appreciate the soft talk these topics should be up to the political system and yes the border should be well protected and respected. Our country is the strongest military I'm the world right? We need to show it.

I’m sorry but America can’t be the savior to the world. Our patriotism and laws mean that we are one of the most free nations and a large percentage of us would fight and do fight to keep our nation secure. Sad reality is that not all countries have the laws we do… and that sucks. But the world needs to understand that our laws and our freedoms end at our borders. Life unfortunately is not fair and some have to endure the realities of where they were born. If we let everyone in who wants to come then our country would be in much worse shape than it already is.

Understand their home guys.. they’re trapped and victims everywhere they go if they don’t have money and or a well known family. Look at their government, controlled by men with guns that they can really whenever they want wipe those guys out. If they’re homeless here they’ll learn a lesson, and they’ll die like the rest of the people on the streets.. I’m sorry it’s harsh but it’s the truth. we cant stop someone’s life? A person is put on earth by hot and god says ‘be free but love’ who tf is this bitch ass nigga in the blue suit telling me ‘yea you are part of the reason earth keeps spinning but like you can’t go here and you have to do this, and if you don’t you’ll die?’. Insanity, who we should be fucking attacking is our own government, look up the criminal record behind our people in office. But you’ll sit here in this video and watch these innocent kids cry and say they don’t deserve to come here because we got lazy fucks w no passion in this ‘great America’ headass country. Please. And im gon leave it at that, cause god gon do it best. ???‍?

I guess the grass is always greener on the other side. I live in El Salvador, but I've been thinking about moving somewhere in North America. The US is cool but, I don't want to run across all of the salvadorans who are already there LOL, I want something new. Also, I'd like to still live in, or at least not very far away, from the Americas. I'm too lazy to go to Europe, and have to learn the language there, sorry, I already speak Spanish and English well enough. Only Japan, or Brazil may change my mind, language wise (my Portuguese is enough so I could get by, and I'm also a Japanese music aficionado).\n\nOn the other hand, I love dressing very flamboyant, and, seeing how Canadians wear in the winter, with those huge sweaters and winter clothing, I wonder if it's the place for me ? (I know, that's a very ridiculous concern), also, I don't know if I'd get used to long winters. I've always said I don't like Salvadoran heat, but I'm not sure if I'm willing to trade that for Canadian winters.

I'm not even American or Mexican but god dam I feel sorry for America its like the beaken for everyone that's alot of pressure

I'm sorry but do not let them in they have their own country there's not enought in American for Americans and foreigners......America is not the way make the best of your own lands

They should just stay in America. They have more land, more opportunity. Do they know how cold it gets in the winter here? That will be a dramatic change from the temperatures at the equator. Canada is full. I'm sorry, I'm not sorry.

I'm sorry but you're coming off a bit precious this is a worldwide problem it's not just happened in Canada I think you do need to get over yourselves a little bit don't you just love First World Problems if you think of America is better why don't you move there I guarantee you won't like it there you have to pay for all your healthcare if you can't just go away and die and that country. Use a just come across like spoilt little brats who can't get your own way. If you don't like it in Canada you can always move back to your original country I know you make call that racist but it's a fact as I say you're just too selfish Brats.

Sorry gals your intentions are just good as your heart but in the minute 7th I got tired to heard about all the barriers Canada has!! I'm from Argentina and even LA is boring for us. I just wanted hear what you have to say. I don't change my country for anything. Even they offered me a job in the US some years ago and I declined the offer. There are a lot of boring people in the whole north america.

I'm sorry, but for the most part, America is against POOR people, not color based races. I used to get followed at stores all the time because I wasn't rich by any means and you can tell by one glance

I’m sorry, but I have very little sympathy for them, they don’t go through the immigration process everybody else has to, and then they in most cases lie about being refugees, when most of them are economic migrants, and add to that this guy seems to been in North America for a few years and can’t even speak English, doesn’t seem to help his case.

I’m so sorry for all of you precious people of Canada! You’re our neighbors (the state of Tennessee USA here) and we see you’re having to put up with everything the Democrats want to do to us if they come into power this November. (The only way they could do that is voter fraud, which is exactly what happened in what we call the mid-term elections in November 2018, when some House of Representatives and Senate seats come open in the two-year cycle halfway thru the Presidential elections - that’s how they won the House back) \n\nThat poor displaced family, though. Bless them; officials need to get to the bottom of where they’ve been, where they actually have citizenship, and attend to them properly and GET CANADIANS HOME! President Trump needs to go up there and jerk a knot in Mr. Trudeau’s rear end. (That’s an old country Southern saying; don’t overthink it please!?? We finally have a President who may be a little bristly, but he loves America and Americans and he is working hard for us!)\n\nBut seriously, wish you much success and although I can’t monetarily, our greatest weapon is prayer and my armor is on (Ephesians 6)!!! Keean, you’ve stepped up to the plate because you love Canada and want to do what’s right by her! You’re doing a wonderful job - “absolutely fantastic” as my YouTube friend Mentour pilot would say. So we hope the situation gets resolved quickly, because this virus is taking its toll on everyone in more ways than one, and in ways we’ve not even seen yet and have no way to predict. Keep looking up though! And make sure you belong to Jesus Christ . Amen!

Sorry dude, but nobody's life is on the line. This Wuhan pandemic is garbage. I mean look at the comparison to the flu. To date there have been 22 000 deaths vs Wuhan has less than 60 N. America wide. \nNo I'm not a Trudeau supporter, he's a fkg idiot.

I’m sorry there isn’t more kindness in this world for him and his family. My parents had such a hard and expensive time immigrating to America. I know how desperate you have to be to want to leave everything you love.

Am I suppose to feel sorry for this guy? How long did he live in the states? Then tries to move to Canada. The only English I heard from him was two words at the end. If I want to move to France I learn French. Russia, Russian. America, English. Canada, English or French. What good is he doing for either country? No sympathy from me and I'm married to a Mexican.

It should be more easy to invade another country and use their welfare system for noncitizens... I’m saying that the USA should invade Mexico and they should pay for our US Citizens to live in Mexico as undocumented invading illegal aliens. The Mexican government are a bunch of hypocrites though. They go to California for campaigning to even get their own president elected. That shows how raped the USA has been from Mexico’s citizens. \nThis video of an illegal alien (lying invader who reduces immigrant to mean someone who doesn’t follow the law,) makes the USA look like a sorry worthless place to live. \nCanada even has rules and Mexico even follows their own immigration rules... but democrats and Californians make the USA look like America is pretty pathetic.

While i feel bad for this family, they cannot say they are refugees as they were refugees when they entered America yrs ago but they are not if they go from being away from their birth country for over a decade! I'm sorry but you ain't no refugee in Canada \nHere in Australia we have very tight immigration laws and its absolutely harder to get here as our country stands alone we have no linking countries.
