Can someone point to an example where immigration has had a positive impact on Canada?

Unfettered migration into Canada is a policy of the Trudeau regime. They don't care if they study or settle here. They just want numbers. Never mind the impact on both Healthcare and housing, after all, it will balance itself, right?

Trudeau favors more on the useless refugees to be fed by the working Canadians than those student’s that will soon become an asset to the Canadian economy by working in the healthcare and industry sectors of Canada. Liberal has a mindset of wokeness and senseless.

CANADA,, KICK HIM OUT, PLEASE. I beg you.

Canada is to rich why many had no home and jobs does the government don't look for their needs and help them to have jobs and help them stop using drugs if they do

Just watched 2nd video,good luck 2 your family,I left canada 2,it's a good country 2 b from,cheers

Who called you to canada n bad mouth canada

Find out first if they are really coming here to study and you will get the shock of your life. \n\nSell out Canada

The United States should invade Canada and take it, the United States should take down the dirty Canadian flag on the Canadian parliament and raise the u.s. flag.

“Why do you not want to learn english with the rest of the group?”\n*receives laughter*\n\nMy friends aunt to who helps people new to canada learn english\n\nShut it down! Its just plants to take upcoming technologies home to china and india and undercut our prices with underpaid workers

Where will current students and housing get jobs? I don't recognize the population outside my door in less than five years. Students will also bring their families over. It's a huge challenge. Really population is out of control. Using a student visa to get into Canada is not tg way to get into Canada.

The Indian student will do anything to come to Canada because their ultimate goal is to get PR not education.

Poor Canada, nah not really. Lmao

What’s really wrong with 50% of one income going to rent? Rent is dirt cheap in Canada compared to similar cities. Are you serious? You think Toronto and Vancouver is Hanoi or Accra? Find a roommate.

Im pro immigration but unfortunately Canada just doesn’t feel like home. \n\nIt’s hard for everything jobs, housing, the emergency room is beyond\nFull, yes these students are working towards careers , however people born / Canadian for generations barely have access for jobs themselves.

*_I love Canada, FREE MEDICAL ..yeheey_*

90% of international students are not coming to Canada for studying, and they are not paying disproportionately exorbitant fees for Canadian education or degrees. They know they are paying a hefty amount to buy Canadian citizenship.

Why is Canada bringing international students from a poor family...if they can't afford to live in Canada then they shouldn't be coming to Canada.?? It's simply math, bring enough money to pay for rent, food and tuition. ?‍♀?‍♂?\nIf you can't pay for rent...then go back home and save up more money...don't take jobs from avg. Canadians.

I have no interest in the plight of international students. I am interested in the plight of Canadians. We need better policy and direction for immigration. Canada needs immigration to be sure but lets be strategic about and do it in a way that is beneficial to Canada.

This is actually a very good analysis. \nI am a professional economist who lived and worked in Canada over the past two decades. Will sign under every word in this video.

Immigrants pay mortgages, pay taxes , do horrible jobs that European Canadians don’t do, aren’t immigrants building Canada , this is just political news , in reality immigrants are progressing Canada

Canada is accepting too many immigrants, not just international students. Woke liberalism destroyed Canada.

I went to Canada in 1993, to Montreal. And after 30 years I was more happy to leave and don't plan to come back. Not the same country anymore. Too much immigration, to expensive, too much taxes ans many others to come, not a good infrastructure (they have no money left ), not good services, crazy gouvernement. And from my point of view the bad is about to come. Bad politics, covid was crazy, it don't worth my time, presence and money.

The purpose of immigration is to strengthen a country. It is not unreasonable to set limits on different types of immigrants in order to keep Canadas economy strong.

it would be okay if Canada had housing but there's a shortage of places for these students to live and no obvious plan how to fix this problem

Are the folks leaving Canada carrying the Canadian flag or the rainbow colored one?

Message to CBC - Please show concern about Canadians who were born, educated and worked their entire lives in Canada. They have had a lack of affordable housing for decades. Have you discussed that at length?

Meanwhile, my honours student Uni grad niece couldn't even get a spot into Teacher's college at the local institution she graduated from and worked in the research lab. This wouldv'e allowed her to remain living at home, saving thousands and thousands of dollars mind you, because there were so many international students accepted. So, she had to move several hours away (to a far better Uni imho), incur the expenses and live with strangers instead. Local kids getting treated as 2nd class to internationals, clearly. So then, the foreign student heads back home shiny new Canadian degree in hand, and who benefits? Not Canada, for damn sure. And don't get me started on how we have to relax standards in the medical profession to bring in foreign trained doctors and nurses to mitigate our own short comings in relation to capacity.

Highest number if people leaving Canada in 76 years: on 2016, 1965 & 1967 . Common denominator trudeau 101 and trudeau 102 in office. There you go mistery solved.

International students is a great business for Canada bringing lots of money and prosperity to small and medium cities with small economies. Urban Jobs grow everywhere for international students like housing, restaurants, bars, bookstores, clothing stores, cinemas, hotels, public transport etc. I think most of them study here in Canada but then with their diploma they move to the United States. Why they don’t stay in Canada?

Stop accepting people from entering Canada, we are overloaded already. Stop being so greedy just to collect tuition money from international students.

Canada wants students money but not the students.they should just ask for donations

I am Chinese ethnic was born in Höng Kong but moved to Singapore in 1984. \nAt that time I could have migrated to Canada or Australia. I am an electrical engineer with a master’s degree and have worked in the States for some time before moving to Singapore. I could have settled in the States as well if I really wanted to. But having studied and worked in the States for some time, I realised it’s not my place. Culture difference, racial discrimination, political ideology to name just a few. So I moved to Singapore which had a job for me. I have no regrets. The country has a very efficient government, housing, medical, education needs are pretty well taken care of, not perfect but good compared to many developed countries. Crime rate is among the lowest. I believe If you have the talents you can try to apply for immigration here. Also Höng Kong which has a similar standard of living is also offering good opportunities to world talents to settle over there.

Respectfully as a professional my 2 cents on Canada. It is blue collar paradise. But if one is a highly qualified professional,it is by mediocres for mediocres in a country of mediocres. Of course there are islands of excellence. Sadly they are few and far between.

The mass immigration is causing the Bank of Canada to forever keep hiking their interest rates to combat inflation. With mass immigration the demand for commodities is always high than what Canada can supply which is the root cause of inflation.

Canada should think about stopping indians entring in canada... Serious issue

But they dont dare to say why Canada changed? we all know why........

Canada has been turned into a left wing, entitled fascist utopia. By the way, Vancouver and even Alberta are considered more of Hollywood North then high crime Toronto?

Where you were Here in Canada ? In the GTA. Everywhere there are lots of vegetarian food you get lots of vegetables, fruits and vegetarian food

@global news. Please tell the truth to the people who are responsible to make Canada a nightmare for hard working people.

Canada is slowly becoming like communist country no doubt. I lived there for 30years. It seemed at first to looks like America but hell no. Total communist and socialist country. I would never go back.

The Saudi ?? government is sold. I say this as a Muslim. I’m born and raised in Canada ??. I loveeeee Canada but I love Saudi more than Canada because of ALLAH , Prophet Muhammad (saw) and Islam. Other than that, these modern day Saudi politicians have oppressed, killed, commit evil and kufr. They left 20 million plus, starving in Yemen ??…. What makes you think they’ll care for Palestine ?? ?????\n\nQur’an 14:42\nAnd never think that Allah is unaware of what the wrongdoers do. He only delays them for a Day when eyes will stare [in horror]. (Meaning the day of judgement)

I made about 65K in 1999. Paid just over 40% in total taxes. Are you sure it's 22K taxes on 100K income? I left Canada a long time ago (not enough jobs, etc. all the reasons you listed, thanks!). Tired of Canada's overly woke politics too :( I used to be progressive, now I'm conservative. I have not changed much in my views, it's just that Canada (mainstream) has shifted so far left :(

I'm sorry but we should not support international students from any country. Canada is suffering taking care of its own people. If any international student reads this, please do not come.

Canada is a woke frozen hell hole now. I am retiring in 4 years and already am planning my escape.

People really should do their research before coming to Canada, instead of getting here and making these videos about how terrible it is. Go with other options then and good luck.

I’m a Canadian who moved to the United States. I recently got my U.S Citizenship. Life has been so much easier here. I have so much more savings and disposable income. I have a mortgage that has a rate that is locked in for 30 years! A 30 year fixed mortgage. My phone is unlimited for $30 a month. Insurance for two new cars is $170 a month. Gas is cheaper. Food is cheaper. Alcohol is cheaper. When you go to the doctor or hospital you get seen right away. I’m very unlikely to ever move back to Canada. I love to visit, but the U.S is far superior when it comes to overall quality of life which I have experienced first hand.

US family here. We were a big downhill skiing family, and often spent our winter vacations in the Laurentians. The exchange rate was great back in the 1990s and early 2000s. So when the time came to start looking at colleges, our daughter already associated Canada with fun, and fell in love with the University of Toronto. She was accepted. But before Canada would issue her a student visa, we had to provide evidence that we could pay full tuition, room, and board out of pocket. For all four years! They wanted an iron guarantee that she would never become a ‘ward of the state’ or consume public assistance services. We had to jump through soooo many logistical hoops for her to attend, it was exhausting to facilitate. But she graduated with honors in four years. All that time, the city was beautiful, clean, and vibrant, though not inexpensive. The St. George main campus, Queen’s Park, Bloor, Yongue Street, more. Everyone we met was friendly and respectful. We very rarely saw homeless and never tent communities. And crime seemed almost nonexistent except for bicycle thefts. Our daughter made many international friends and forged great relationships she carries to this day. So many wonderful memories. So it’s heartbreaking to hear how downhill the city has become. And the US is no different. It’s all in the politics, and neither Trudeau’s nor Biden’s policies are helping.

If u r thinking of moving to Canada, wait till Trudeau is gone.

Everyone is leaving Canada. I have seen a lot of Muslims (including Syrian refugees) and Christians leaving Canada for similar reasons and I have myself tried. I hope I will succeed sometimes soon. You forgot the lack of freedom and Canada becoming a WEF lab. In the last 20 years, the country changed so much.
