00:00:00.000 Well, it appears the Canadian government has finally decided to start utilizing
00:00:03.760 CBSA agents, and now they are showing up at all those international student protests
00:00:09.420 that we have been talking about for years. Maybe telegraphing to the entire country where and when
00:00:15.260 large numbers of potentially illegal immigrants are living in Canada right now might not have
00:00:20.600 been such a good idea after all. All of this started back in 2024, when you might recall 1.00
00:00:26.680 that large numbers of international students in Prince Edward Island began demanding visa
00:00:32.060 extensions, as if Canada is somehow duty-bound to grant permanent residency to anyone who asks.
00:00:39.660 Then the protests expanded, taking place in Brampton, in Winnipeg, and now in Alberta.
00:00:45.900 At first, we weren't exactly sure the visa status of these protesters and how they got to Canada in
00:00:51.480 the first place were they refugee claimants temporary foreign workers or international
00:00:56.280 students we had a pretty good idea though it turns out that the overwhelming majority of them
00:01:01.400 were all international students know like whether you guys were international students or whether
00:01:06.600 you guys were tfw so were most of you did most of you come as students most of you came as students
00:01:12.440 and did most of you study in ontario first before coming to pei uh yeah so all of us are international
00:01:17.880 students it's not only about like most of them come from ontario like people came uh came over
00:01:23.720 here across canada back in 2024 these protesters had the political support and sympathy of liberal
00:01:30.200 mps but today that support is gone and now cbsa agents are rocking up to these protests and
00:01:37.480 demanding to see immigration documents look the left in canada is going to freak out about this
00:01:43.080 they will say this is trump style immigration thuggery they will draw comparisons to ice but
00:01:49.000 here's the deal being in canada on a temporary visa means that you are in canada temporarily
00:01:55.400 nobody is promised permanent residency they haven't been and they aren't now protesting
00:02:01.720 demanding whining labeling canada as stolen land no that's gonna help now the sympathy is gone
00:02:08.520 When it's time to go, it's time to go.
