Immigrant here!! Ran away from Canada because of too many immigrants!!! Just take a look at the customer service in Canada? We use to have the best customer service, now you talk to this agent who does not understand you and vice-versa. On top of all, they yell at the customer. They want to do things the way they do in their country. Sorry, but Canada has lost its high stature. ?

If they want to settle in Canada, they should apply through immigration system not through sneaky ways and try to bully local people including every person from around the world, that came here through PR immigration programs. \n\nCanada is a beautiful peaceful country and we love it. \nPlease don’t wreck it. \nWe know you all have spent a lot back home, to sneak in here , but we all taxpayers have our own people to take care of. \n\nWe the Canadians need jobs and housing and health care too , that is too much stretched because of you people.

The Israelis want the Arab world to take all the Palestinians, and the Arab world knows this that's why they won't take them.

Trudeau we have to get Canada ?? back ,and following our law .\nAnd when we work at the hotel there need take a break and not pushing to go faster cleaning the rooms also public areas. The Government should go to check rooms because staffing there are \nOnly spread chemicals and they just use a rags to cleaning the baths or toilets or sinks. Chemicals are not good if there don't wash with water . The chemicals can burn the skins and go to pore of your skins. You better fixing it in Urgent. \nThank you

well you have terrorists in your government what do you expect, first they ruin the left and the merge with right and take control. \nnothing new here, remove the terrorists, it will solve a lot of problems for ya from drugs to illegal immigrants(Diploma mill are illegal immigration with a higher price as most of them cant even speak or read English, how are they even allowed there?? MONEY is how).

Temporary is mean Temporary so they have leave when is the term is done, work permit take over the regular job and all the young people can not find the job and why should we help other people, when the people here need the job. The government right now is a idiot and cannot ran the country......he only care for himself not for the Canada

?? Indians are Responsible. They make all streets dirty even pooping everywhere bringing all shitty Indian festivals and political issues to Canada. If you leave an Indian passport and take a Canadian one be a Canadian not Indian shit. Respect the country and be part of that

Canadian should take all those hard labour job if they don't want foreigners. Canadian job is for Canadian. So, upgrade yourself... work in those low wages job.. stop complaining and start applying job. Don't depend on government give out

Indians coming to America and Canada to take over just like the white people did. In Sacramento California they are arrogant misogynistic and racist. I'm so sick of it. They own all the gas stations liquor stores and continue to poison our communities with alcohol when they don't even drink it.

Disclaimer: Canadian of East Indian Descent here. Went through the pathway of studies-work-residency-citizenship\n\nLet me simplify the story for all of you guys here that lacks immigration intel. \n\n1) The quality of migrants you see here is not what Canada needs long term. It’s not a matter of ethnicity, but Canada needs to import talented and educated folks in medicine, engineering, trades etc. None of these individuals are interested in studying and are either attending 3rd grade colleges/universities to get a work permit and hoped to stay on. \n\n2) Shoddy sales tactics include lying or ‘avoiding stating the obvious’ that could make you lose the deal. This is exactly what the Canadian government did with these people. The Canadian dream was sold somewhat properly before 2017/2018 I would say. Post Covid there was a MASSIVE need of manpower in minimum wage jobs. The government could not afford increasing minimum wage at the time and international students would do exactly those jobs and bring in millions of dollars in tuition fees. The government opened the gates for these strip-mall colleges to take unprecedented numbers of students with allowances to work. These students were sold the exact same dream that a top quality University/college student is sold about Canada. They needed to be used at the time. And if they would’ve been told that their quality of students are only needed temporarily, they wouldn’t have come. The labour shortage at the time wouldn’t have been solved. So a CATCH 22 of the highest order. \n\n3) Canada CANNOT give in to such protests as it will set the worst example of migrant pandering for future generations. The best talent will refrain from entering Canada and more and more of these types of immigrants who do not want to assimilate to the Canadian culture will want to keep on coming.

WHY,WHY? STILL THEY ARE STILL IN CANADA, THESE PEOPLE DONT EVEN PROTEST LIKE THIS TOWARD CHINA WHERE CCP HAD ALREADY TAKEN OVER SOME INDIAN BORDERS. FOR CANADIAN DOLLARS,THEY ARE READY TAKE A DRASTIC MEASURES. GIVE.THEM A WARNING OF FEW WEEKS TO CLEAR THE AREA AND THE CANADA. UNBELIEVABLE.

A lot of Canadian students cannot get into college because they are FULL of international students. Imagine if your local high school was unable to take your kids in for this fall term, and the reason they gave you was because they were 'FULL OF INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS' ?? You would flip out if that were to happen.

A couple of icks:\n1: “we hear that there’s lots of Indian people here so we come here” that’s lazy, and coming here to use our land without bothering to learn our customs or meet with our native people.\n2: “it’s like a mini India”\nAgain, that mindset contributes to stealing our native land and using it for your own to take over.\nI don’t care if you’re from Russia or England or any white dominant country either - you can’t just take over entire sectors of land as a whole population from another country. I feel as though they found a loophole and mischievously are abusing it, and over time they took over everything, just like scammers. Just like white colonizers. Which we DONT like to appreciate and we say we wouldn’t tolerate that in this day/age - but look at what’s happening. And to protest that you should stay here forever automatically because of a student permit when our population is overflowing - imagine doing that in any other country. Like China. Or Russia. Go on. Just imagine.

They want to protest but refuse to be interviewed to share their views on what's happening and why they need to leave. If you're there to protest and fight for your rights, it makes sense to take advantage of the interview and clearly express what you're fighting for. Ignoring someone who wants to understand your perspective suggests you may have an attitude problem. This could be the reason you're being targeted—because you're unwilling to do something as simple as explaining what you're standing up for. Kudos to the only man who accepted the interview, even while someone was trying to take the mic away from him. In the end, I hope they can find a solution for both our Canadian and Indian brothers and sisters, and that their countries will prosper again, creating more opportunities for them.

Bye-bye Trudeau and take your sidekick with you Jagmeet and close the door behind you. PC, Pierre ? has my vote. They have to return if they like it or not. We need a good cleaning, at some point we need to throw out the trash ?.

When I was in college, Indian students were my nightmares for group work. Many of them kept silence until the previous day of deadline, and said they wanted to take part; some others would say at the beginning that they needed to work in the day so they had very limited time for the work and brazenly begged to slack off. Thanks to the assistance of AI, I was able to finish the whole project on my own and told them f**k off in the last minutes.

If canadian people don't like this then why are you using this immigrants?? don't take them please they leave their family and sell properties to contribute your economy.. so send back immigrants and workers if so

We don't need foreign workers or students educate the canadian give them first hand chances and take care of you homeless first and stop pocketing side money they all r doing it

my people will NEVER TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. THERES NO WAY THEY WILL EVER EVER BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS. EXCUSES AFTER EXCUSES, LOL GOODLUCK TO ALL THE PEOPLE TRYING TO CONVINCE ONE OF THE MOST SELFISH , EGOTISICAL, HYPOCRITICLE PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD . THEY PLAY VICTIM INFRONT OF THE CAMARA BUT ONLY GOD KNOWS WHAT ILLEGAL ACTIVITIES THEY RUN BEHIND THE SCENES SUCH AS CASH PAID JOBS, NOT PAYING TAXES, WHILE THEY DISCRIMINATE AGAINST CANADIANS AND CATER TO THEIR OWN. BRO GO TO BRAMPTON, GROCERY STORES TO MECHANIC SHOPS, ALL ARE RUNNING SOME SORT OF ILLEGAL ACTIVITY, RIPPING OFF THE CANADIAN SYSTEM ONE DAY AT A TIME!

They lied to come here on the pretence that they were going to study most of them don’t study expect to pass work more than 20 hours and take jobs away from Canadian born students who cannot find any jobs. Then they make a mockery in the main streets they need to go. They are an embarrassment to our way to the ancestors who came before, including myself Punjabi do the right way, stop cheating and scamming and lying.

Why is the increase of foreign students an issue? We have an old dying population that is a burden on the health and social systems. These kids have to pay the enormous tuitions and pay rent and taxes to survive. They contribute 10 times as much as the Canadians each year. It sounds like xenophobia at its best. We want to take their money then send them back ?

I don’t know why you guys are not transmitting the news as they are. In Canada they are not banning Indians they are putting a cap on foreign workers and international students. \nIndians are the only that are protesting in the streets.\nWhen the economy is bad and there are not enough jobs for the taxpayer population in it I don’t think that the government will take large numbers of people from abroad

Can you even believe if these ppl are not loyal towards their country would they be ever loyal to Canada they speak utter lie and take pr via LMII ???. AND they don't even call themselves as Indian they call themselves as Panjabi so they will be the same ppl who call themselves as Indian when they are in trouble ???. They don't want to live in canada they want United States from the beginning. And Punjabi want canada so they want more of it's people in canada like Muslim in Germany did

Racism against Indians is increasing. I was born here and they treated us like dirt then and treat us like dirt now. Student visas are just an excuse to be racist. They feel emboldened because we don't speak up. We don't speak up cause Indians are too busy separating themselves from each other. The separation is the reason you see so many racist comments towards Indians and nobody else. Even the ignorant Indians try and put all the blame on one group like Punjabis or Gujus. In Canada, you're just another brown person in the racist eyes. ?\n\nGood luck out here, stay strapped if you feel like your life is in danger. Do research on legal knives to carry. A lot of white Canadians have stuff like that on them, take my word as a brown person who was born in Canada.\n\n\n\nn

Illegal & Asylum seeker should not be given permanent residency ever in another country full stop \nElse what happened UK will happen every part of the earth. So lesson is does not matter which country they are from Middle East or Indian or Asian all the same even student visa on work all must be strict on work also CASH must be stopped to stop drug dealers and Bank & Polician can take full control of human living each country streamline funds only via notes not cash handling must only way good economy & Finance

Cheeky Effers why is it ok for them to come to the lands of the Unbeliever/Infidels,yell God is Great and then take advantage of the freedoms afforded in these Nations and Shit on these very tolerant countries who have given them safe refuge.\nShunt them back to where they fled... Syria Morocco Iraq. Their Brother Muslims can give them safe refuge \nUngrateful hypocrites....???

India has to stop exporting its people all over the world.first, they have to slow down population growth. Second,take care of its own people by providing with jobs. Third, India has to start taking responsibility of its own failures to give its people jobs, decent living, healthcare and education. Everyone knows that Indians do not emigrate for school but to settle in Europe and North America.

Hell yes, they must go, their time is up! And please take Tredeau with you guys.... give him Indian citizenship, we dont want him either!

India has no wars. They should be deported back to their country. India should be hold responsible for their people. They should be given high sanctions and tariffs . Until they take back their own people.

Trudeau is to blame - he brough several million migrants and immigrants with no skills and in the case of the Indian migrants they have a sense of entitlement and believe we have a responsibility to take care of them.

Why is it different???? They come as guests to get education to help their lives in their country now they won’t leave screw that!! close the educational system for foreign students problem solved . Period!!! Canadians are sick and tired of these self proclaimed rights take your education and leave the free ride over. PERIOD!!

So there's been an increase on Indian vs Indian crime. The reason being, that the Indian people who came here in the 1900s are established and for so long, hoodlums/Indian government couldn't access them and their wealth or opinions about India. But with the laxed immigration, the hoodlums, who otherwise would have no access to Canada, have been let into the country (think of all the recent intel issues between Canada and India). And they are carrying out random attacks against the former Indians, but now Canadian citizens (and their businesses) that have been citizens for well over 40 years. (apologies if this reads poorly)\n\nIt speaks volumes for me to say that as a Canadian (born and raised) whose parents are of Indian descent, that we feel unsafe because Canada has let in the low of the low, who cannot be trusted, and who have poor morals and no work ethic, hence why your order at Tim Horton's always gets messed up. People that actually care, will ensure that they understood how to take your order.\n\nEdit: Why is India coming after Canadian citizens for their opinions?\n\nIndia's current government does not like to take accountability for how it treats its minorities and handles human rights issues. Those people in Canada who have spoken up about anything over the years (such as the farmers protest), are an easy target, especially when these people are wealthy/prominent figures, with a profitable businesses in the Indian community. \n\nAnother point: I was visiting India in February 2020, and the government had just enacted the citizenship act which basically made Muslim people second class citizens. This resulted in immediate violence towards Muslims and their businesses. So when we were leaving back to the capital to fly out, I was specifically told to act dumb and delete any social media posts/any journaling of the event, because any ill opinion, would land you in Indian jail. \n\nThanks for reading ?

So these international students have to take out 10s of thousands in loans, can’t get a job, most likely will move back home because the degree won’t grant them a job suitable for the debt they accumulated. But the school gets paid and loans most likely go default when the student leaves for home…. A scenario based on reality

The issue of fake students coming to Canada from India or other countries under the guise of education, only to work and take advantage of cheap labour opportunities, is a concern for some citizens. This influx of cheap labour may contribute to lower wages and fewer permanent jobs for Canadian citizens, particularly in industries where foreign workers are employed at a lower cost. Canada must maintain integrity in its immigration and labour policies, ensuring that students come for genuine educational purposes and that the job market remains fair for Canadians. This is a wake-up call to re-evaluate our systems and ensure they are not being exploited.

As a Canadian child (early 1970's) I collected money with my candy on Halloween for people in Bangladesh. We have food banks and shelters and assistance programs for those suffering misfortune and our society WAS designed around public sharable services and programs. When I was a teen, a Guianese immigrant co-worker told me Canadians are stupid for providing handouts to immigrants and he laughed at me for buying his house with my taxes. In recent years there has been an influx of new residents whose focus is how they can take advantage, what they can get for free and those who try to cheat the system and cheat others. The scams and cheating that sends thousands of Indian students to Canada for an education at a school that cant take them is the same kind of scams starting here. The fraudulent proofs of income banks were receiving for house purchases has resulted in an artificially inflated housing market. I just bought a house and my Canadian born Indian neighbors literally gated and locked me out of $6000 of my land, while we were on good terms, because the felt like it. We were a society built on honor, trust and respect and while I wouldn't say its all the fault of Indians, there are by no means a small percentage and its getting worse.

The politicians from Canada and India don't care if everyone lives in poverty. And getting Canadian citizenship will not solve all your families' problems. Once Canada goes broke there will be no welfare, EI, pensions, free housing, or healthcare so you're better off staying in India where at least you know the language, laws, religion and culture. Also Canada doesn't need anyone murder cases like Hardeep Singh Nijjar!\nThe next Canadian federal election is on October 20, 2025. The politicians would bring in another 5 million foreigners from India, Pakistan, Nigeria, China etc, if they could. But Canada doesn't have enough affordable housing for people born in Canada let alone from other countries. The Canadian politicians want voter banks, corporations want cheap foreign labour, and the WEF want Agenda 2030. The Prime Minister of Canada and India are to blame for this mess. Both Prime Ministers are not doing what's right to take care of their citizens. No point coming to Canada or other any Western countries when you can't speak and read in English, either.\nBy the way, you're better off training to be a plumber, a mechanic, a nurse etc than getting a liberal arts degree. If you're an international student and you can't afford to rent for example in Vancouver and Toronto than don't come here. It's no secret some international students turn to prostitution, sell drugs and go to food banks in order to survive. Don't come to Canada assuming study permits automatically means you will get Canadian citizenship.

I am so happy for Pakistanis and the laurels they bring to their beloved Pakistan. Remember all Western societies no muslim in true sense if he is a true follower of Islam will ever leave a chance to harm other communities,they all have a hidden agenda to convert non believers either by hook or crook. They despise diversity see for yourself the relationship between countries in middle eastern countries and the horrific crimes committed by the citizens and the wars continuing in African countries where Islam is a majority religion.\nThis religion was set up by the sword guided by tribal laws of 6th century and most of its followers intend to take back world to those times.\nSo a religious group formed as a result of fear of swords can never be a religion of peace period. They will always be on the look out to strike when an opportunity presents before him or her .???

Personally I don’t care if they have problems. They can take pay cuts or shut down if the business model doesn’t work. We can’t let these institutions damage communities by flooding them with people that they can’t house and are taking housing from working Canadians. These are the people the universities depend on to keep the lights on, the water flowing, the streets cleared and many many other things. Price them out of the housing market and they will go elsewhere and when the university needs a tradesman they won’t be able to get one. With the lights out and the pipes plugged the place won’t appeal to any students and they will go home.

They should all be sent back for being there, Canadians have the right to protest and these are not Canadians, they have temporary SINs starting with a 9 and we can blame the public and private colleges for pushing them in to up their enrolment. They should be protesting at Conestoga and Loyalist as to why they had full time recruiters sent to India with no legal background promising a fast track to PR. I work in HR and have been saying for 7 years that these intl students being pumped in to take a BS program at a college to fast track a PR are a joke and now finally people are waking up. Also, communication wise, how can these people graduate when they can’t communicate in English clearly and misunderstand basic questions, another thinker.

Why do indians from india push their way in illegally in western countries. And demand that they have rights in our countries. Why do they think that a student visa's are a stepping stone to citizenship. India should take care of their own people. Like china. Your population is too big.

The problem is their attitude! Instead of being grateful for the oportunity that is being offered to them, they just take advantage of everything! They are by far the most R@cist people i know! They are even R@cist towards their own if they speak a different language or are from the north or the south of India! They are the ME, ME, ME Imigrants. They just throw stuff out their windows while driving! They Spit everywhere! If you go to the Mall you will see the Moms on their phones not even taking care of their kids and just let them run rampant and scream! They're are some respectful ones! but they are few and far between. I have Coworkers that are East Indians and they are the ones telling me that they know about their races behaviour and are ashamed of it.

As a Chinese immigrant, I have to say that Canada needs to evaluate the quality of new immigrants. For the past 20years, large amount of Chinese immigrated to Canada, 50% of them are wealthy, and brought millions billions of dollars to Canada, especially a lot of rich students who are willing to consume and pay taxes. The other 50% are not that wealthy, but they are working hard while not breaking the rules. Most importantly, they don’t take shit on the beach, and they are afraid to break laws!

This comment is not address to the fine lady on the video. \n\nIf anyone not born in Canada does not like it (weather, societal values -respect towards women free decision making, towards lgbtq, love for dogs, free speech, sexual education, history, political system, taxes, government intervention, etc.) then leave! No one is pointing a gun to their heads to keep them in the country. They really are free to go. Stop whining, take up responsibility for your own life and leave!

As a fellow Indian, They had enough time time to study and get a good job apply for PR instead they take useless courses , work instead of study and when the wp expires they think they can do a strike and demand to extend WP!Remember its an opportunity given by Canada to gain Workexperince after study instead you guys are make them take it back by doing this stupid strike! As per visa you are required to leave country and if u don’t you are breaking visa rules and bringing in more hate to others

The Indian students are here not to study, they just want to stay back here and gain permanent residency permit. We dont need more Uber drivers, These people take jobs from Canadian citizens. NDP LIBERAL Govt. has destroyed this great nation by importing these unskilled workers ( they are not students) ENOUGH IS ENOUGH GO BACK WHERE EVER YOU CAME FROM . We will not allow these people destroy this GREAT NATION.

What taxes do they pay? Income tax? If they are international students, they should be coming here with enough money to support themselves while in school, not take jobs from Canadians. Go back to where you came from and leave us in peace. Stop trying to get something for nothing.

I don't know the reason as an outsider why the USA government has let all the illegals in to this country I never will, but at a guess one of the reasons might be because a lot of the Americans are on drugs right now and can't work, so they still need workers in the factories to keep the place going so they just employ cheap labour from other countries to take the place of people that can't work not to help the people of the USA to keep the country going.

Enough man.. how much u will tease out on these kids .. good n bad implications r felt n understood..these kids, in general r hardworking , healthy and willing to adapt.. unfortunately they r on the wrong end of the narration…Giv them a chance and take measures to prevent this happening again… they r betteroff than the druggies n unskilled asylum people on the streets…fringes have become blindsighted and blamming have fallen into leftist trap as usual..u blamming the whole indians including the ones living legally for the mess canada is in is so stupid..being nice is good but it was not for free..no one did hold u in keeping ur house in order..what ever chances conservatives had will start to wane of during coming months if this is not contained as we all know this issue was started to take the real attention of homelessness n drug addiction was highlighted..

My story is similar to yours Alina, moved to Canada at 15 y.o., lived there for 20 yrs and now moved away. It's been hard, Canada has been the place I'd call home and thinking that I may never come back to live there is a little heart wrenching. Looking forward to learning what place you picked for yourself. From my experience, it will not be easy whatever place you pick. The social connections, daily life, it will all take a long time to set up. One thing that helps is keeping in touch with the most important people in your life - whereever they may be.
