What invasion? We all came here legally with passports and valid visas. WE work jobs, help our community, isnt that canadian enough? The temples and gurudwaras of Brapmton literally offer free food and drinks to anyone and everyone, regardless of their race, sexuality, gender. We're not like the mexicans of the usa where we come here illegally.WE COME HERELEGALLY, do legal jobs, and live peacefully. Do we have our fair share of problems? Yeah, sure. But that really doesnt overcome all the good that we do not only brampton but canada as a whole. If you wanna blame anyone, blame your government for letting in so many people, not us, we are simply ppl who are seeking a better life. Im a 18 year indian canadian teenager and im sorrounded by other indian canadian teenagers as well and we're all here to do good to the country and city, we're planning on becoming lawyers engineers, doctors, etc, yet yall think that we're here to destroy the country that we ourselves keep close to our heart. this video is racist, and nothing else.
Defends immigrant contributions through ethical appeals (legal status, community service, future aspirations) and rejects racist framing.

According to Matthew 25:31-46, we Westerners have to welcome the stranger. It is our duty, not optional. No asylum claim on the part of the stranger is required. The conservatives should know this duty.

Saying that African intelligence is below 70% is discriminatory and offensive. What standard or yardstick are you using to measure the intelligence of African men and women? Intelligence is not determined by race, and such claims are rooted in prejudice, not facts. This kind of comment is unacceptable and deeply disrespectful.
Commenter appeals to ethical principles and human dignity by condemning discriminatory claims as prejudiced and disrespectful.

The comments on this video makes me sick. As a Canadian it genuinely disturbs me to read all the extremely racist rhetoric from people who I think better of. None of this video had any facts or anything. He just interviewed a racist guy on a bike and suddenly everyone thinks that is fact? If you actually did any real research, immigration has stimulated the Canadian economy immensely whether or not people want to believe it. And multiculturalism and sharing cultures will never be a bad thing. Racism will never be okay for Canadians. Stop it.
Commenter appeals to ethical principles (racism is wrong) while criticizing the video's lack of factual basis and defending immigration's economic benefits.

**What European settlers and colonial systems did to Canadian Indigenous women:** * Sexual violence against Canadian Indigenous women with little or no legal consequence. * Forced domestic labor and exploitation. * Loss of legal status for women who married non-Indigenous men (under the Indian Act). * Destruction of matriarchal leadership structures. * Ignored disappearances and murders of Canadian Indigenous women. * Forced and coerced sterilizations without consent. **What they did to Canadian Indigenous children:** * Forced removal from families into residential schools. * Physical, sexual, and emotional abuse. * Bans on speaking Indigenous languages or practicing culture. * Malnutrition, medical neglect, and unsafe living conditions. * Deaths of children, many buried in unmarked graves. * Forced labor presented as “education.” **What they did to Canadian Indigenous men and leaders:** * Arrested, jailed, or killed leaders who resisted land theft. * Criminalized traditional governance systems. * Restricted movement with passes and permits. * Destroyed livelihoods by banning hunting and fishing. **What they did to Canadian Indigenous families and communities:** * Broke families apart through child removal policies. * Forced relocations to poor, remote land. * Starvation through controlled food rations. * Banned ceremonies, gatherings, and spiritual practices. * Chronic underfunding of housing, water, healthcare, and education. **What they did to Canadian Indigenous nations overall:** * Stole land without consent. * Broke, ignored, or manipulated treaties. * Imposed the Indian Act to control daily life. * Attempted to erase languages, cultures, and identities. * Created intergenerational trauma that continues today. These are established historical facts recognized by Canadian courts, survivor testimony, and national inquiries. Naming them accurately matters, because clarity is the first step toward truth.

Trumps small, petty ego battles are very costly to the average American and to lives around the world. Trump does not care. He is incapable of empathy. His ego battle and extortion racket with Zelenskyy is costing lives. Trump doesn't care. A hundred thousand extra lives were lost during Covid in America because of Trumps, ignorance, lies and disinformation. Trump didn't care. Lives were lost in Haiti because of Trumps hurricane response incompetence. Trump could have cared less. Trump sold out the Kurds in Syria. Thousands of lives were lost. Trump didn't care. He's a sick man and American voted him in. Now we have to live with it. Here in America, there is going to be a step too far. For half of America, Trump is way passed that. Dictators only respond to strength. Thank you Canada for making a strong and firm stand.
Extended moral critique of Trump's character and policies, emphasizing harm and lack of empathy, while praising Canada's stance.
