It's called brown town for a reason. LIsten to the racism. It used to be a no color town she says. A Canadian Karen. They are people from India. How dare you address people BY THE COLOR OF THEIR SKIN? Sorry, you weren't economically successful or supportive as the Sikhs and other Indians are. That's how it is demographic change. At least they aren't stealing and murdering others like the other humans
Frames demographic change through ethnic/racial identity categories, criticizing both the original speaker and defending Indian/Sikh communities as successful and ethical.

Now think about how these Indians can even afford to buy these massive churches and temples. They make an average of like 2000 usd A YEAR IN INDIA. Even my small town in Ontario has multiple churches taken over by Indians. Hard to explain the anger when an old picture of your Grandfather you never met gets taken down and the church taken over in exhange for some Hindu bullshit. Also the sikh temple guy saying everything is the same - their culture is unbelievably different than any western culture. We are unfortunately just not the same and don't have the same values. Takes a lot for us Canadians to get this fed up with a foreigner. We have always been the most multicultural.
The commenter expresses cultural displacement anxiety, asserts Canadian identity as distinct from Indian culture, and frames immigration as a threat to heritage and values.

Most of Indians who call themselves Punjabi don't even wanna acknowledge that Punjab is not a country but a state that belongs to India. So why don't you just say Punjab India? Only Punjab.
