I grew up in Brampton from 1985 to 2010. I watched it change. Not for the better. I got the hell out there and every time I go back to visit my fam, it's even worse. Almost never seeing any other race but Indian lol. It all has to do with Trudeau's dad designating that city as a go-to place for Indian migrants. The Trudeau's are part of the whole Satanic New World Order, and part of that order is using mass immigration as a weapon to destroy 1st world countries. His father started it back in the 70s. And yeah the driving is absolutely horrible. The car insurance skyrocketed. They destroyed the city I grew up in. It's a shit hole now. Many of them will tell you that India itself is a shit hole, but the more of them that come to Brampton, or wherever, they turn it into India. I don't consider it racism. It's their people but it's not like it's all of them, but it is a lot. From personal observance, they're the most unhygienic people I've ever met, and they love easy jobs the involve scamming others out of money. All of those scam callers are Indian. Nothing else. They have no dignity. No self respect. They just want money and don't care how to get it. I generally don't like them, but it's because of their negative behaviors. There are plenty of other races that come to Canada that people love. Have you ever heard of anyone complain about Filipinos? No. They're loved. They come here and know how to assimilate while keeping their own heritage intact in respect to our own. They're friendly, respectful, hygienic. Indian people just want to come here and make this place Indian and they have tons of kids, so that's exactly what's happening. Brampton was cooked years ago. It's just going to devour itself and fully become an extension of India, and it already has been spreading out from Brampton to the surrounding cities.
Extended first-person account of observed urban change, mixing lived experience with conspiracy theories and ethnic stereotyping.

I think those guys were scamming you. They were being way too sketch and wanted you to hang out in the apartment until they robbed you of the 6k. Once they knew you were white it was obvious. You should have had an Indian dude do it, and should have followed through.

a few years back Brampton had a mayoral election and one of the people running was this guy John Sprovieri and he received and email complaining that a white man should not even be running because white people no longer have any business planning Bramptons future. He replied saying that people of all backgrounds want to come because of what white people built" he was sanctioned by the government for that comment and he was touted as a racist from then on. No comment was made about the indian woman who said white people shouldn't be allowed in the government in a Canadian city anymore. Last time I was in Brampton I was told to go back to my own country because I asked a group of indians who were playing indian music from concert volume speakers in a residential area at 1 am to turn it off. I don't think you captured a small fraction of how bad it is in Brampton.
Recounts personal experiences in Brampton with anecdotes about racial discrimination and demographic change, framed as evidence of societal problems.

5:30 minutes in guy on the bike is right in some aspects as I’ve worked with a few and they’re slow and take longer to pick things up they do eventually get the hang of things but their work ethic is very low. However with the IQ he is SPOT ON. I’ve literally tested this in and shown immigrants in Canada a picture of Adolf Hitler swastika armband in sight and all and asked them if they knew who he was and I’ve only had ONE immigrant answer correctly, and most of the people I asked were here in Canada on student visas!
Claims personal anecdotal evidence about immigrant work ethic and intelligence, including a dubious historical knowledge test.

Couldn't make the March Forth rally today, took down by a migraine. Bad one too. \nI've been trying to get a doctor to fix my lower jaw bone, likely with a bone graft, as my left lower jaw is disintegrating and being reabsorbed by my body's auto immune response. \nI just got word today that with the pending cuts to Medicare, that I will likely have to pay for this procedure myself, to the tune of over $150,000 plus dentures, rehab, etc. \nThank you Amerika, I'm going to lose my face, and likely my housing, my food assistance, my SSDI, and quite likely my very life, because greedy billionaires own your ignorance.
