In Australia 10-15 migrants are having to share a house, due to massive shortage of rental properties, they are nothing more then slave labour, to fill the underpaid underskilled jobs us Aussies refuse to do, its a giant scam, these migrants are being treated worse then dogs, I presume it's the same in Canada.

its not the international students. The corrupt liberal government are using them as cash cows for the corporations and education institutions. trudeau needed to stop funding scams and straight up illegal. ? ?

These people do mba to scam people is this the kind of education we all require

It’s an invasion. There are no labor shortages in Canada. It’s a scam. Canadians can’t even get summer jobs. Indians are everywhere.

I love how the security guards were all brand new immigrants too ? In brampton there was a line up at a restaurant 1000 people long for ONE job posting. \n\nIts impossible to live here. And the government thinks its OK because aggregate market prives for apartments are 'acceptable'at 2300/month for a single bedroom. The problem is that 60% or mortgage come due this year, we have 2 million immigrants who are underhoused, and all these people are looking for multi bedroom units which have tripled in price since 2019\n\nEdit: before anyone takes this the wrong way, this is not the fault of the people coming here for a better life, it's a federal/provincial government problem for scamming 100s or thousands of people out of a life here.

It was a Canadian dream scam.

Canada is a scam.. They sell dreams of a better life.. But they're sucking you into the wage slave culture that is taxed to death and basic human needs like accommodation is unaffordable..

When Canada takes applications, they want highly educated, when they are here, then they have to just drive taxis. There is shortage of doctors and nurses and thousands of doctors and nurses just work in Walmart or drive taxis. Kind of scam from this aspect. At the end everyone looses not only immigrants.

Australia has the same problem. All the international schools near the city are full of asians whose parents have also bought them an apartment.Its a investment rort.The housing waiting list is 20 years! The politicians have let so many people in ,who are not refugees--they just want an easy scam. So theres no places to rent and the public transport is overwhelmed. And of course the price of food has gone up from %200 to %700. So bad even the rich are wingeing.

My uncle came to Canada recently through a business visa and immediately applied as a “refugee”. He is a multimillionaire in Iran, very rich and lavish life back there. He just wanted a quick path to PR. The whole system is a scam. Canada is a joke.

I was an International student and I totally agree with everything in the video. I believe the Immigration is a Big Scam and we do need qualified Immigrants who will improve the standards, but what's happening in fact is Justinder Singh is getting unqualified Punjabis who do not even have minimum qualification. Am sorry but please do not hate all Immigrants and Indians as there are some well qualified among them but majority Punjabis are not and are bringing bad name to Immigrants.

Don't fall for it . Don't come. This is a scam of biblical proportions

That man is right. It’s all a political scam. They knew what would happen and the money they could generate. Living in Toronto for 24 years, I saw the difference happening before my eyes. This country has fallen in shambles beneath a leader who has failed.

Political scam. Said like a true liberal?

Too close to homeless people get lice and scabies. Nothing new happening everywhere. Immigration is a scam so only way around it refugee or visa student. Bunch of bs.

Canada is a scam, I know that is a string word but that is the reality, immigration scam

That guy saying political scam, represents like 50% of ignorant Torontonians who refuse to think their city is in decline

Im leaving too. Canada = Scam

Indians who scam our elderly and most vulnerable now learn how is it to be scammed?. Karma, huh ?

Immigrant figured out housing, pension, tax pyramid scam ???

Even the scam security are 'new arrivals' that can barely speak English

I don't give money to the homeless anymore (I give food or gift cards instead here and there), but if one pulled out a debit card terminal, I'd be immediately wary of a potential scam. Not only because how in the world does a homeless person get their hands on that, but also because there isn't even a screen on the one we saw earlier in the video. For all you know, you may be transferring 1,000 dollars from your checking to theirs as soon as you tap your card.

Canada is a scam. It's a marketing scheme to immigrants sponsored by the government as well as real estate companies. It wants to milk immigrants out of their foreign money.

even canadian medical system is getting worse and worse. \nwalk in clinic doctors dont wanna see patients \nI visited 3 different walk in clinics and they all said no\nWhen i visited Toronto one homeless guy tried to hit me, boyfriend and our friend. \nthe homelss guy told us to leave his park so we did and 5 mins later the same homeless guy was hitting one of the bikers in the driving lane. All the other bikers started to punching the homeless guy and started kicking him brought him to the opposite side walk and kept hitting him. seriously, canada's becoming very dangerous even in Vancouver being very much ghetto place.\n\nI think the PM should be focusing fixing Canada instead of getting more people in. When most of the middle class citizens are becoming more of a poor class. There's no balance in the country. Middle class is now poor class and I dont know what poor class is anymore. The rent is fucking crazy cant buy anything seriously organic lemon is over 5 dollars i mean i dont eat anything organic but this is crazy. especially when you try to buy something like a coffee the workers want you to pay at least 20% tip and if you dont they fucking glare at you. I really wanna leave Canada i dont wanna live here anymore. Its getting dangerous every day. More killing, theft, scams its so disgusting. 20 years ago was so nice. even though it was still expensive at least everyone wasnt mad at each other.\n\nYou should do Vancouver theres so much tents in the parks police officers dont do anything. Those people who needs to stay in the mental hospital doesnt get those help they're out in the streets.

This is illegal immigration. The education is a scam!!!!! Our country is being invaded ? it’s terrible how our veterans are being treated. This is disgusting!!!

Many ways we could go about fixing this crisis. Obviously heavily limiting immigration would help, banning all diploma mills that are just student visa scams. Forcing municipalities to get rid of their awful zoning and restrictive rules, could be streamlined by running a nationwide referendum to make zoning a federal jurisdiction and not provincial/municipal and then just adopt something similar to japanese zoning nationwide. Banning or heavily restricting Airbnbs is an other thing that would help. A lot of what the BC NDP with Eby is doing should be done nationwide for sure. Regarding all the homeless people, we could offer them a job to build infrastructure, houses in exchange for a bed and food, something akin to what was done in the New Deal. Could be a super efficient way to get something like high speed rail built quickly. It'd be a contract they'd sign for 5-10 years and at the end of the deal they get compensation for the work they did. Also not every homeless can live in society. When conservatives got rid of institutions like mental asylums, all the people with non fixable conditions got thrown in the streets. Those are people who just can't, regardless of how much we do to help them, live in society, but their people like us so a modernized, humane version of the mental asylums would help a ton not just for these people, but also their family members who'd know that their kid or sibling is somewhere safe.

As an Indian immigrant myself who came here many years ago, I completely agree. Canada was very different back then. Businesses want cheap labor and politicians want future voters, hence the immigration scam. All the more reason to push for automation and eliminate low skilled jobs. Otherwise keep importing large numbers from the 3rd world and turn Canada into a 3rd world country.

Canada is a real estate scam

This is exactly why immigration is a scam run by the Canadian government. This has been happening since 2013 and has increased tremendously since pandemic

Canada will be the NEW INDIA wether we like it or not. They lie, cheat, scam, commit fraud to enter Canada. Good luck looking for a job, THEY ONLY HIRE THEIR OWN KIND.

Canada is in the happy index is the biggest scam ever

Canadian immigration system is a damn scam lol

Real victims are these immigrants themselves. Canadian govt , Colleges and Agents sell them a dream to scam them out of their savings. These people grew up in developing countries saw Canada as a first world country hence they flocked.

i am indian and i 1000% agree with this scam it definately causes problems for people who live in the country it fucks up there lifestyle without the jobs and other infrastructure it only benifits the top class policy makers

If theres such a shotage of wokers WHY IS THERE SO MONEY OUT OF WORK ?? another trudeau scam

They need a job because it’s a fast track to PR! It’s a scam and these people NEED to go!

Not enough Canadians to run phone scams

All scamming Indians

When will MPs talk about CANADIANS being FIRED from their jobs only to have them replaced with international students and temporary workers???\n\nLabor shortages are a LIE. I am in Vancouver and no one can find work who was born and raised here. They had great jobs but they were all fired and can't get hired. This is a scam of epic proportions

All a scam to get people to rent your overpriced housing.

ALL THIS IS A SCAM AND A BIG LIE

There is no labour shortage. All a total. Scam.

Conning people on a large scale is the best scam any country can do to its fellow human being. Its like trafficking humans legally.

I live in US... and to be honest I am disappointed with indian embassy service. Never take call. Never talk respectfully. Curt rude and scam callers by billing them to share general info that is supposed to be their job to answer calls. I don't care if they are understaffed but for the amount of fees that they charge to do visa and passport, it is ridiculous how unprofessional and uncivil they are behaving. I am well educated and yet distressed. They are abusing their own citizens this way

Canada is a scam, they just making money from fooling immigrants to get more money from them.

I came here 2 years ago, I'm applying to jobs in the US and other countries as soon as I land one I'll leave, this country is a pyramid scam.

Canada wants young qualified immigrants sho do small jobs and pay heavy taxes to pay for the sick and ageing Canadian population and themselves live in perpetual poverty without owning a house, or get caught in the merciless mortgage payment system. Many immigrants are not choosing to sacrifice their lives for that. They have figured out the scam.

Scams can go so far,,, my educated lunatics…

Not housing, job matching the skill is the issue. Immigration for many educated people is really scam.

How an airlines worker allegedly exploited Canada’s immigration laws to admit people from India\nThe 24-year-old former British Airways worker is estimated to have made over $5.1 million from the fraud scheme\n\nAuthor of the article:Jamie Casemore\nPublished Feb 28, 2024\n\nA former British Airways employee has allegedly fled to India after being arrested for allegedly helping Indian citizens get around immigration laws so they could claim asylum in Canada.\n\nAs initially reported in The Times of London on Tuesday, the employee who worked at Heathrow airport in London, U.K., is said to have enabled people without proper documentation to get on flights to Canada so that they could claim asylum upon entering the country. He allegedly charged £25,000 per person or about $43,000.
