Canada is a human resource waste land. I have seen people with hi tech skills come to Canada and end up opening bakeries. If the economy is growing fast and creating jobs, everything else falls into place. I moved out of Canada more than 12 yrs ago as I felt my career wasn't going anywhere and I would end up wasting my degree and skills. Best decision of my life!

Ha “Canada needs more people” so they can make more money

Housing for those that built Canada over the past few decades.

Because they don't want Canada to become like the U.S. and Great Britain. Multiculturalism breeds social problems.

I think people are missing the big picture. Canada does not want private citizens to be property owners,and especially not landlords who are earning income from property ownership. The struggle around landlord rights is specifically targeted to discourage property investment. As Canada does so well, the punishment is the process. This will not change regardless of how many 5min news bites are published.

Canada belongs to native americans

It's not even that it's just Immigration, but it's only immigrants from 2 countries. Canada needs a cap on immigrants from each country. All these immigrants but I have never met a person from Spain? Never met a person from Brazil either. Even with immigration nobody integrates. They talk all about diversity but everything is like a Clique. The russians only hang out with other russians. The Koreans only hang out with other koreans etc.

Canada is broken ??

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that when you let the amount of new immigrants into Canada in the last 3 years that exceeds the total immigrants admitted in the prior 10 years, you are going to see major shelter inflation. Couple that with a low-interest rate policy post GFC and leave rates for that low for that long and you are going to witness an epic housing crisis. But not just that - these new immigrants become fodder of cheap labor that pushes out our very own Canadian citizens from these positions, with the more marginalized ones ending up on the streets.\n\nThere is a Motel 6 in my neighborhood that has been taken over by the Canadian government and converted to temporary housing for new immigrants. All paid for by Canadian taxpayers. Why isn't our own government using these funds to fix the housing crisis, or help it's own citizens with more affordable housing but instead they continue to exacerbate this problem by letting a huge wave of immigrants that overwhelms the Canadian infrastructure. More proof? Notice more locked up goods in your local stores? The demand shock has pushed the cost of living for everything from food to shelter that these Indians who are these same new immigrants are resorting to shoplifting, and extortion!\n\nIf you are going to bring in immigrants to prop up Canada's aging demography at least tighten your admission standards and bring in more educated ones, with more liberal, more considerate and more courteous dispositions. Trudeau has got to go.

But all the people at least from India are just going to Canada to try to come to the US

Yes, it’s time to take back Canada enough is enough No more immigrants ?

They came here with a higher degrees. This peoples can drive Canada to a brighter future.

Immigrants don’t need to go to Toronto. There are a lot of provinces in Canada, other than ON, where they eventually end up.

Not just Canada. A lot of European countries just want to be left alone in their home country.

Just my 2 cents here. I know its anecdotal, but i feel like its probably the norm.\n\nI lived in Canada my whole life, i visited the states and lived there for a few months for a job.\n\nThe amount of violence, gun or otherwise, is night and day. In the U.S. you could have a gun pulled on you in a grocery strore, on the highway, in the park, at the bar...\n\nIn canada, you could walk an entire city, late at night, completely alone, and the odds of someone hurting you in anyway at all is like single digit %. In the U.S, you arent making it 2 blocks without trouble.\n\nIt is mind boggling how dangerous it feels to just be in the states then it does in Canada. Until you have experienced both, you just cant understand how wildly different just this 1 aspect is.

Earning in dollars in Canada means you also spending in dollars ??.

Pro report , \nLast word words was the true fact , the immigrants will benefit Canada but the government need to implement and invest more to organize the new population

Welcome to the 3rd world Canada ??

Who said Palestinian doesn’t want to leave their land?? Many of them apply to go to Australia and NZ, Canada, Europe and USA as refugees..The muslim world simply doesn’t want to lift the weight

When you got a son of the Cuba leader Justin who Dictated Canada ... are you expecting the safty of US

Even the white Canadians killed the natives when they first entered Canada

Mass migration is a war crime in Canada . No housing or healthcare or jobs even before immigration . This is treasonous by those who promote this. Two lar b e business groups are pushing the federal coalition to mass immigrate for their own financial gain and our loss. The heads of those businesses are friends with our coalition leaders.

I’m an immigrant we came in 1982 , but the problem now is a lot of people here don’t want to integrate with Canadian society and want instead bring their own beliefs. Part of being an immigrant is to assimilate into the culture and not be an outsider. To me Canada is home , this is where I met my wife and my children are born. But you have to work for it because nothing is free. The key word is to become one of us , to become Canadian ??

Canada does NOT need just more people. We need people who will assimilate culturally who are highly skilled. We don't want to end up like Sweden or France where entire enclaves of immigrants don't speak the language and refuse to assimilate. We also need affordable housing for the people who are already here.

It’s not racism. Canada is a nation of immigrants. Immigrants are always welcome. The problem is that there is a housing crisis in Canada. Increasing numbers of of Canadians are becoming homeless and ending up in homeless shelters or in tents encampments. There is a belief by many that our government is allowing in ever growing numbers of immigrants while at the same time marginalizing long term Canadians. In addition to a lack of affordable housing, there are not enough jobs. My son, a university student, had trouble finding a summer job. Temporary foreign workers were taking jobs that Canadians would normally do. No wonder there is a def of resentment against immigrants. The Canadian government is at fault for mismanaging both our economy and the imm system.

Canada now is colonized by Indians. It is hopeless.

Canada is unrecognizable in the past few years. Stop mass immigration from India!

tell me tf about it i live in Canada and theres hobos every where theres to many refugees

As an immigrant, I believe that the current racial structure of immigrants has destroyed the original structure of Canadian society. In addition, I support economic immigrants who can create and bring consumption and wealth to Canada, and the number of refugees needs to be controlled based on the capacity of Canada’s welfare institutions， shouldnt be unlimited，is crazy.

What is future of your children in your home country compared with Canada ?

i dont understand, when im late on my rent i get an eviction notice dated for a certain day, if that day comes they show up with police and move me out? why is it so different in toronto, im only in edmonton canada.

I'm grateful that I don't live in Canada!\nNOT moving to Canada was the BEST decision in my life!

Lol… Alberta supports Quebec…missed your rating by 9 billion dollars… what Alberta gives to have not provinces Alberta is number one in Canada

better not change name of canada to india goona a war on your hands

Please be aware that most of what this video purports is FALSE and not based on facts. For instance, migrants don't get a free health care plan or stipends from the U.S. government. However, once they are released into the U.S. while their case is pending, they may receive some assistance from non-profit organizations or community groups, such as food, clothing, or short-term housing in government or NGO-run facilities while their cases are reviewed. They only receive emergency medical care if required. Also, the US does not have open borders like the video states, thats a lie. Migrants can only legally enter the U.S. from Canada through designated ports of entry by presenting valid documentation, such as a visa or a passport from a country in the Visa Waiver Program.

Unbelievable. I hope the politicians and bureaucrats in the US, Canada, and other Western nations are paying attention to what is happening in the UK.

A country goes through ups and downs all the time. We are in a bad place, but scapegoating immigrants isn't the solution. Isn't everyone an immigrant in Canada??

Typical Guardian asking dumb questions. Why is anti-immigration sentiment on the rise in Canada? Maybe because the numbers arriving are too high? Maybe because there is a shortage of housing? Jeez, it's not rocket science.

Indian american here! A lot of canadian indians moving to USA legally or illegally! Our people fu*ked Canada now they coming to USA ?! That’s why trucking went down!

Canada is full, stop mass immigration.

Far Right Extremism is the mind disease of our times. Anyway, Canada is an immigrant nation, nothing will change that; it will endure and continue onward and upward.

If you're doing okay ( not even good but average) in India, think many times before going to Canada. It'll take a lot of time to get a good life in Canada owing to the situation there right now. Though situation was much better a few years back. Not now. If you're hell bent to go, you can but keep in mind there's a hefty price to pay

Canadians finally realizing Canadas economy is actually just immigration

Sorry but your message is too late to say England has Falling in immigration laws. Canada has problems of addiction people not immigrants

Problem is not immigration but how we are settling new immigrants. In the 1970s Canada accepted 200k Vietnamese refugees after Vietnam War. They were settled into small towns across Canada. That is why even in a small town with population of few thousands, we still have Vietnamese restaurants around the corner.\n\nLooking at the future, world is becoming more localized. While politicians are calling for setting up local manufacturing, they failed to comprehend the most basic economic principle that we need a labour force to have any industry or economy. Rather than setting up a better program to help immigrants intigrating into our economy, and stimulating development in less populated towns and provinces, they only know to stoke comflicts and scapegoating...\n\nI wish mandatory Econ 101 class is given to anyone running for office.

So they''re no longer travelling to Canada? Now they heading back to New York City.

Great reaction vid.. Love visiting the US, love living in Canada.. Been all over the States including Sandusky, Ohio.. lol.. Also lived 3 years in Windsor (Detroit border).. Differences are absolutely safety. Just gotta be more aware in the States, get your coke from a reputable dealer LMAO.. American's are always surprised a Canadian knows about their teams, NFL is big in Canada.. US has everything for certain, it's a big draw.. Have always had great interaction with American's.

after 17 years of hell in indian healthcare, i finally got good care in canada

I am from India living in India. I think Canada shouldn't replace native population with mindless immigration. We in India are also having similar issues due to illegal immigrants coming from Bangladesh and Pakistan :(

Canada is such a large country its funny/crazy to think how the housing prices have went up so much. At least for starters build more affordable housing, or have designed safe areas to pitch a tent/shelter with water/electricity. I worried about the future whether I will have a roof over my head.
