This is not a controversy. Private companies abused the system to make a profit, now they’re rectifying it.

Has nothing to do with your skin or culture its not that deep and your not that special for most people to think about at all. Its the insidiousness of the actions and loopholes that are used by immigrants of all races or cultures that allow themselves to thrive. While the people born here of many colors get nothing but higher taxes to pay for the services that get totally abused.
Birthright citizenship for people born here needs to end if the parents are not legit citizens.
Housing capacity laws need to be created with fire code enforcement so you cant have more people living in a house than rooms available.
All religious facilities even the white ones... need to be taxed.
No more preferential treatment for visas because your related to someone who lives here already. Everyone across the board should have to immigrate the same way with no special treatment.
Cultural celebrations and traditions. Respect everyone. Unless you have a permit keep that stuff in your own home or place of worship. EX... Indian wedding on my street = 3 1200w speakers playing Cow slaughter house noises until they leave.
Proposes multiple specific policy changes regarding citizenship, housing, taxation, and immigration procedures with economic and regulatory concerns.

As an American, I am appalled by Trump’s actions. I, for one, agree that his reasons for imposing tariffs is a lie. I strongly disagree with his blatant disregard for America’s allies. There is NO justification for aligning the US with Putin. If he thinks Putin has our interests in mind, he is crazy! Before it’s too late, I hope that his cabinet, the house, and senate realize that they can no longer support a president who does not support our interests as a country.
American commenter critiques Trump's tariff policy, trade decisions, and foreign relations, while calling on government officials to change course.

If housing, healthcare, and infrastructure can’t keep up, the issue is capacity and planning—not the nationality of newcomers.
If housing, healthcare, and infrastructure can’t keep up, the issue is capacity and planning—not the nationality of newcomers.
Argues that immigration policy should focus on infrastructure capacity and planning rather than restricting based on nationality, reframing the debate.

Why is he even involved, why is he speaking on mainstream media, he has resigned because Canadians do not want him as their P.M., most of us don't care about what he has to say. He is arrogant, corrupt and irrelevant and doesn't represent us or our values. We need an election!

Trudeau is good at brainwashing. It has nothing to do with the people. It has to do with this dictator regime who taxes everyone and everything in Canada. Basically. And don't want to stop. They leave their borders open and immigration here in Canada is out of control. They give refuge to criminals in Canada and no rule of law. This guy is a dictator and food at brainwashing in the media.
Criticizes government policy on taxation, borders, and immigration while making unverified claims about criminals and dictatorial control.
