Toxicity Scores & Embeddings

I live in Calgary and the north east areas like Saddletowne and Martindale is also pretty much like India.

As a Canada who speaks both French and English and who follows politics quite closely, I have to say that the headline and some of the reporting here is quite misleading. A reduction in immigration has broad support across Canada. I wouldn't say that notion is dividing the country in any significant way. You do have certain industry groups that disagree, but among the population these reductions have broad support. This is a historic change in public opinion in Canada, but it has been driven by the unprecedented increase in immigration under the last term of the Trudeau government. To put this in context, non-permanent residents in Canada numbered around 1.5 million on Q3 2023, but by Q3 2025, that number sat a just over 3 million. The previous government increased immigration targets by 3 or 4 times over what they had been for years, which caused a number of economic issues. Essentially, the volume was simply too high for the economy and society to support. This was unfair to both Canadians and new comers, many of which could not find employment or afford a decent place to live. The changes being suggested are largely bringing Canada back to what the targets were for over a decade before, though a bit lower to account for the sudden surge. Canada remains one of the most pro-immigration countries in the world. However, and this is where I think DW's reporting is misleading, there is a distinction to be made between policies at the federal level and policies at the provincial level. Immigration, per our constitution, is a federal matter, however, Quebec in particular is distinct from other provinces. I don't mean only culturally and linguistically, but also in the powers that have been devolved to it by the federal government. On the question of immigration, Quebec has more powers and more ability to set its immigration targets and programs than any of the other 9 provinces. The particular program discussed here, the Quebec Experience Program (PEQ), is a particular immigration stream that only existed in Quebec. So what is happening with that program cannot be labeled as a whole-of-Canada thing. Where the changes to the PEQ are controversial, unlike the general changes at the federal level, is that people who immigrated under that specific program were promised certain things. There was a multi-year time line to Permanent Residency and then Citizenship. Many of those people have been in Quebec for 5-8 years already. However, the changes made to the program were done in such a way where people who many years into the program, had gotten an education, started a career, had children, ect. are now being told they can't continue and must leave Canada. There are even stories of people who married Canadians, now have children, and the one parent who was under this program now faces the possibility of having to leave Canada and be separated from their family. All through no fault of their own. That is what many people see as unfair, and I agree, however limiting future applications under the program, to bring in less people, that is not controversial. Canada has no responsibility to bring in people who are not already in Canada, but Canada does have some responsibility towards people who uprooted their lives to move to Canada and built new lives here based on promises and representations made to them by the Canadian and Quebecois governments. We should no simply kick those people out of the country.

I've lived in brampton. I am canadian born. They have changed the entire city

They’re still living in the sixth century and trying to bring the sixth century into the 21st-century and use their way of living. It’s not going to work.

The guy on his bike talk like he just have one week to live.

I just can't imagine living there😂

Real journalism. Max respect. My family is from Canada so I could live there if I wanted to. Glad I was born in the US instead.

Hi sir I'm a Rohingya Refugee from Myanmar live in Thailand and I want to live in Canada please anybody help me +66913851315

Charging 4x the tuition fees for international students should be labelled as a crime to beginwith. It's high time to make Canadians pay that kind of money for their degrees and not live in the merry world of subsidised education for domestic students.

I lived near 49th and Fraser in Vancouver also known as Little India. Sikhs are really good neighbors. I wish I lived there now.

lived there for 3 years, don't go

In the early 60's my wife and her family immigrated to Canada. The benefit they got were the opportunity to live and work here. Their story was the same as my (four) Grandparents. Come, work and don't commit crimes lest you be deported. They all got the same benefits ... the opportunity to live and work here. Too bad that;'s COMPLETELY changed.

It’s weird seeing a video near where I live

I live near the border people do it every single day so it must not be that hard...

If the dont leave voluntarily, then we need ice like moves, i have been living in canada for 25 years, when we applied to come here, we had to wait years where my country was in civil war. These ppl that are here as a student and temporary residents,, must understand the law and that there is a legal way to come and live here. If they force themselves to stay, then we need worse than ice for them to face.. with crimes, healthcare and employment rate down, its the best option

Bro you should’ve interviewed me!!! I live in Brampton and I got TOO much to share

We just have stagnated and we can no longer afford to live on one wage

This documentary starts on a very partisan note, but it doesn't end on one. I don't speak for all Hindus, but when I lived in Australia, my values told me to integrate and treat everyone equal. Now I am back living in India with a global perspective and renewed respect for world cultures. Yes, Canada has had a lot on unchecked unskilled immigration which is bound to cause issues- but I'd like to believe, and my Hindu faith teaches me, that people are inherently good.

Snippet: Getting a college degree in native land should be less stressful than studying abroad -- as in studying in Canada or United States. Foreign countries and its schools would most likely have a higher standards and expectations foreign students might find more textually challenging and tuition-costly. Immigration or Immigrant Policy is an entirely separate entry into a foreign country vs. based on student's visa, which is timed. I would go back home and finish up school there and earn back home -- visiting other land temporarily is fine, but not live with them full-time. FYI - Canada & USA are brothers biologically -- they are Anglo-Saxon and owned both countries and everything in it. be blessed. nov2025

Im on Disability and have my own home, but thanks to our gov't making it SO expensive I am slowly being pushed out of my home. Guess I'll have to live in my car too.

I am Canadian n can’t believe the amount this country has changed the past 10 years. Absolutely bizarre. I live on my own but worn with foreign workers n might listen to foreign language in my life more than English.

I'm a retired Canadian Military veteran and I don't live in Canada because the Canada I served is not the Canada that exists today.

12:40 Please pray to the only living true God Jesus Christ for your safety

Mainstream media is too scared to touch this topic. Thank you for showing the reality that actual Canadians are living through📉

Lived in Mississauga, in the town nextdoor. Brampton is nicknamed "Brown Town" for that reason...
