As a Canadian born, brown resident of Brampton, it truly sucks to see the Canadian culture we all love be completed obliterated by large scale, unchecked immigration from India specifically. In the gym, grocery store and most other common spaces, people speak Punjabi, not English. Truly horrible what happened to what was once such an awesome country and the worst part of it is, nobody, no policy maker will ever face justice for the cultural destruction they have caused. Sometimes though, I think, maybe Canada and Canadians dug their own grave. They/we voted in Liberal leadership time and time and time again, even when we saw our country being destroyed, in front of our very eyes.
Extended personal narrative asserting Canadian identity while expressing cultural displacement anxiety and blaming immigration policy and political leadership.

We don't call it Tim Hortons anymore. It's called (Singh Hortons) even the quality of the food and establishments have declined. I get my coffee from Starbucks and McDonald's now.

Please send the Indian back! Indian is everywhere, even in Singapore right now! There is a saying, if you were to die now, you have 60% of being reborn as a Indian. There are here to conquer, not to assimilate.

It wouldn't be so bad if they were good hearted people like most other immigrant groups. Turns out they are just looking for ways to undermine you somehow, like you are in a corporate office, but it's the whole country instead of an office.

0 white people in almost every tim hortons, our government has made me hate my own country. Foreigners are above Canadians in the governments eyes. But I guarantee you I'd be called racist for even saying this. It's so sad, I'm okay with equality but it's quite obvious that we are being neglected. The amount of people that joke saying it's the new India is unbelievable, I'm ashamed of our country
Uses demographic observation to assert white Canadian marginalization and claims reverse discrimination, with identity-based grievance framing.

I'd honestly prefer Indians over Middle Easterners. Hindus and Sikhs aren't proselytizers and generally have a much more mellow religious vibe, unlike Muslims. Plus, Indian food is the shit, I dig curry and samosas. The thing you really have to be careful of, as is the situation with any instance of mass migration, is to be aware if newcomers are taking advantage of Western social assistance programs, like the Somalis have done with the welfare system. They need to understand that to be welcomed as new Americans, they have to work. Indians have proven to be industrious through hotels and convenience shops. I'd prefer them to Middle Easterners or certain cultures of Africans. That all being said, they should also come to understand that, having moved to a modern country, there's very little point in having massive families with ten kids. No need to endlessly spawn more people to help with chores like water fetching when you have indoor plumbing. It's an unfortunate trend a lot of migrants have trouble getting over, the endless breeding that makes locals anxious that they'll become a minority in their own country in just a few generations.
Ranks immigrant groups by cultural/religious compatibility, expresses demographic replacement anxiety, and frames immigration through ethnic preference hierarchies.

You should have gone to a Tim Hortons in a small rural town to count the Indians working there. You’d find the same results as Brampton

Imo this isn't colonization or an invasion, no one's getting r*ped killed or forcefully moved from their homes. They are weak and choose to move away from the Indians. Also many Indians will adapt a more western lifestyle overtime due to assimilation so cleanliness won't be a big concern overtime. In history migrations like this happen and have happened so many times and sometimes the demographic of a country is permanently changed, it always happens. Stop complaining about it, nothing lasts forever.
Frames immigration as demographic change and assimilation, with identity-based framing about cultural displacement and normalization of demographic shifts.
