Juno News - Canadian families living in tents？! The REALITY of Carney’s economy

00:00:00.000 Immigration was founded on multiculturalism, but where has the majority of immigrants come

00:00:05.280 into this country over the last five years? India, a specific region in India. And they

00:00:09.480 were all promised this fictitious Canadian dream where they sold all of their assets back at home

00:00:15.280 to come for a Canadian education. And what they were greeted with was a college diploma mill

00:00:21.080 scam. We have officially entered in a technical recession. While Mark Carney is out there saying

00:00:26.500 We've had the best affordability in the last decade.

00:00:29.920 We have Canadian citizens living with their kids in tents in a forest in Ottawa, of all places.

00:00:35.960 I cannot tell you I've received dozens of messages from people at various gyms across Canada.

00:00:41.660 People are in the hallways, in the change rooms, they're in the sauna, they're peeing in the sauna.

00:00:50.560 This is a big problem we have.

00:00:56.500 Tonight, we're asking a question that cuts right into the heart of what many Canadians

00:01:01.340 are feeling. How is it that in one of the wealthiest countries on earth, families are

00:01:05.180 living in tents, struggling to afford housing, food, and the basics of life while governments

00:01:10.220 continue spending billions of dollars on priorities that often seem disconnected from the challenges

00:01:15.100 Canadians face every day? Now, to be clear, this isn't a debate about whether people fleeing

00:01:20.080 prosecution deserve compassion. Of course they do. It isn't a debate about whether international

00:01:24.480 aid has value. The real question is, is about priorities. When a Canadian family can't afford

00:01:30.240 rent, when young people have to give up on ever owning a home, when food bank usage is at record

00:01:35.680 highs, and when ordinary citizens feel like they're falling further behind every year,

00:01:40.320 where should the government dollars be going? Should our first responsibility be to Canadians

00:01:45.900 here at home who pay those tax dollars? Or is this picture more complicated than that?

00:01:51.320 Well, look at this video and tell me what you think. 1.00

00:01:53.640 Canadians are treated like worthless trash in our own country. 1.00

00:01:57.220 Amy Ayers is taking down the place her family has briefly called home. 1.00

00:02:01.040 The past few weeks, she's been living in this tent with her three kids, their dog and cat.

00:02:06.020 Tucked inside a forest in a conservation area owned by the city of Ottawa.

00:02:10.260 She says the hardest part has been trying to keep her family together

00:02:13.400 while running out of places that would take all of them, including their pets.

00:02:18.080 They either didn't have anywhere that would accommodate us all as a whole.

00:02:22.660 or there was no room.

00:02:26.060 She says it wasn't just one thing that led them here.

00:02:29.360 After the pandemic,

00:02:30.320 Aris left her job as a personal support worker

00:02:32.480 for mental health reasons

00:02:33.780 and now relies on social assistance.

00:02:36.480 She says her oldest son works a full-time fast food job,

00:02:39.820 but even with their combined income,

00:02:41.800 it's still not enough to afford rent.

00:02:44.060 Her story comes as the city shelter system

00:02:46.720 remains under pressure

00:02:47.780 and the number of households waiting for subsidized housing

00:02:50.580 continues to grow,

00:02:51.640 reaching more than 16 000 at the end of last year the average weight between five and eight years

00:02:58.020 you have families with children as the biggest group of people in our shelter system we can 0.96

00:03:03.440 absolutely be doing more than we are we would rather house refugees only that is a national 0.89

00:03:08.700 issue that is a provincial issue this is mind-blowing you know on an airplane we've all 0.93

00:03:13.120 been on a plane at some point in our lives what do they tell you in an emergency what should you

00:03:17.120 be doing. When the gas mask comes down, the oxygen mask comes, you put it on yourself first

00:03:23.000 to save yourself. Because if you can't save yourself, you won't be able to help anybody

00:03:27.800 else. This is common sense. We have officially entered in a technical recession. While Mark

00:03:33.080 Carney is out there saying we've had the best affordability in the last decade, we have Canadian

00:03:38.240 citizens living with their kids in tents in a forest in Ottawa, of all places. This is just

00:03:44.660 madness. This is not about having compassion. Of course, Canadians have compassion. I'm the son

00:03:50.180 of immigrants. My family fled the Taliban in Afghanistan, in Iraq. Of course, we all want to

00:03:56.000 be compassionate, but it starts with the people that pay tax dollars in this country. It starts

00:04:01.640 with Canadian citizens. It starts with the people that we rub shoulders in at our schools, at the

00:04:06.340 mall, at our Taekwondo events. It starts with us first. I don't understand why we keep prioritizing

00:04:13.580 other people's problems. We just bought a hotel for asylum seekers in Pickering, 0.57

00:04:21.440 but we can't house Canadian citizens who are literally living in tents with their children. 1.00

00:04:26.840 This makes me sick to my stomach. We just spent $10 billion on international aid. Okay. 10 billion

00:04:34.640 that could have been spent on so many other priorities within this country to support the

00:04:39.240 people that need it the most. We have 2.2 million people that rely on food banks in this country,

00:04:44.100 over 220,000 people that are homeless, just like this family living in Ottawa.

00:04:49.880 And this is what we're doing. God forbid, if we have to go ahead and fund $8.2 million for

00:04:56.800 gender neutral rice in Vietnam as part of that international aid package, I think we have better

00:05:03.200 things to focus on, more important things to focus on. And don't get me wrong. Once we lift

00:05:08.560 ourselves out of this recession, once we lift ourselves, all of the people in this country out

00:05:14.180 of the poverty, the decline that we face, then of course we want to help internationally. That's

00:05:20.040 what Canadians stand for. We want to go out and do good in the world. We want to support other

00:05:24.960 people's needs. We want to bring in refugees, asylum seekers with real factual claims to come

00:05:31.120 in into this country that can provide value to this country. We want to bring the best and

00:05:35.960 brightest from around the world and support them. We want to support people fleeing persecution,

00:05:41.460 but we need to have proper safeguards in place. We need to make sure we do background checks on

00:05:45.800 people. We want to make sure that the people that come into this country assimilate to the 1.00

00:05:49.920 Canadian values and what it means to be Canadian. But none of that can start until you start taking 0.99

00:05:55.500 care of Canadians first. It's that simple, but we are not doing it. And we should all be upset. 0.99

00:06:01.860 we are not angry enough with our government. And this is not just happening to Canadian citizens,

00:06:07.980 by the way. They're not only destroying the quality of life of Canadian citizens,

00:06:12.160 this government has systematically lied and destroyed the lives of the same immigrants that

00:06:19.160 they supposedly stand for and want to support in the face of persecution. But we all know the truth.

00:06:25.260 Look at this video from an Indian immigrant that came to Canada and the reality that he faced

00:06:31.480 in the Canadian dream that he was promised.

00:06:34.580 Watch this.

00:06:35.220 Three years, death, no job, no friends,

00:06:40.000 and just three days left before I fly back home.

00:06:43.780 I came to Canada in the age of 23 thinking that I figured it out.

00:06:47.760 I didn't.

00:06:48.760 I hadn't even spoke up aloud because of embarrassment.

00:06:53.200 This hits different from fear.

00:06:55.600 Fear you can fight.

00:06:57.420 Embarrassment, it just sits inside you.

00:07:00.120 it's you alive but i'm done hiding it i'm 26 i'm going back and yes it's a failure i accept it a

00:07:09.020 lot of people like me are in the same life and they want to escape it but they can't that's for

00:07:14.620 you no need to pretend we are not pretending anymore i'm 26 i'm starting over again that's

00:07:20.880 rebuild that's cool i want to make something very clear here for everybody watching this

00:07:25.600 this gentleman did not fail and failure is something that you should embrace in life but

00:07:30.540 he did not fail he was set up to fail from the very beginning our government and let me make

00:07:35.300 this very clear we talk about immigration immigration was founded on multiculturalism

00:07:40.100 but where has the majority of immigrants come into this country over the last five years 0.99

00:07:44.160 india a specific region in india and they were all promised this fictitious canadian dream

00:07:50.060 where they sold all of their assets back at home

00:07:52.760 to come for a Canadian education.

00:07:55.640 And what they were greeted with

00:07:56.800 was a college diploma mill scam,

00:07:59.480 worthless pieces of paper

00:08:00.900 that they sold their life savings for

00:08:03.060 that ended up getting them a job at a Tim Hortons

00:08:05.640 or a minimum wage job somewhere else

00:08:07.700 where they are housed 20 to a house together.

00:08:10.860 That was the reality that they faced,

00:08:13.540 not the Canadian dream that we all promised,

00:08:15.760 the Canadian dream that we all once knew and loved

00:08:17.780 and hoped for our own sons and daughters

00:08:20.520 that they would go ahead and receive.

00:08:22.100 So not only did the government lie to them

00:08:24.460 and destroy their lives

00:08:25.920 and the opportunity in front of them,

00:08:27.520 they also destroyed the lives

00:08:29.080 and the quality of life

00:08:29.940 and the opportunity for our own children.

00:08:32.940 They took away those jobs from our own children.

00:08:35.960 All of this systematically

00:08:37.360 to make their friends richer.

00:08:39.520 That's the truth.

00:08:40.580 That is the 100% truth.

00:08:41.740 You come in, you bring in millions of people

00:08:44.400 without any vetting, okay?

00:08:46.440 No background checks.

00:08:47.780 they just opened the border. Why do you see crime? I started this talking all about crime

00:08:52.480 in the very beginning. Not only did they bring in all these people from a specific region, 0.98

00:08:56.840 and I have so many Indian friends. Some of my best friends are Indian, and they are the greatest

00:09:00.360 people. They are so kind, amazing people. They've come to my house all the time. I love them. I love

00:09:06.320 them. But their image has been tarnished because this government, not only did they bring in them

00:09:11.360 all from a specific region, no background checks, no checks on them, organized crime rampant,

00:09:16.620 And now that image has been tarnished on them. So they bankrupted them. They promised them a

00:09:22.120 dream that was completely false to simply inflate gross GDP in a service-based economy to get their

00:09:27.720 friends very rich who are already rich in a service-based economy like Canada. But then they

00:09:33.000 also destroyed the image of hardworking Indians that immigrated here previously. This is total 0.99

00:09:39.520 destruction of an immigration program. And this is one of many Indians that are now going back to 1.00

00:09:45.760 India because they realize they've been duped. They realize they've been scammed by the government

00:09:51.160 that supposedly was the staunch supporter of immigration and equality and the Canadian dream.

00:09:58.180 Instead, they use that fictitious facade of a Canadian dream to enrich themselves. This is the

00:10:04.060 truth. This is the reality. And it makes me so sick. And they did this all literally screwing

00:10:10.780 over those new immigrants and newcomers, screwing over Canadians, destroying our infrastructure, 1.00

00:10:16.840 our healthcare, our economy. There's no jobs, our youth, our future, literally all for money. 1.00

00:10:23.980 That's what this means. That's literally it. And if you disagree, you need to open your eyes

00:10:29.500 and realize something my dad told me a long time ago, which is very true. When it all comes down

00:10:34.800 to it, look at the money, follow the money. How many of those college diploma mills got rich 0.99

00:10:40.740 because they brought in all these international students

00:10:43.280 and they just let it pass.

00:10:45.600 No one thought about housing the international students.

00:10:47.740 Of course not. 1.00

00:10:48.700 That's not a problem we care about.

00:10:50.440 We just want the money.

00:10:51.960 I want people buying more things,

00:10:54.320 bolster the economy.

00:10:55.240 And guess what?

00:10:56.180 Now that all of our infrastructure has crumbled,

00:10:58.800 our quality of life has significantly deteriorated.

00:11:01.880 We've been in a GDP per capita recession for a long time.

00:11:05.940 Finally, this liberal government

00:11:07.920 has had to slightly put a pause

00:11:10.460 on this mass immigration program. And what happens? Canada enters a technical recession.

00:11:15.420 The only country in the G20 that is in a technical recession today. Oh, people will blame the Trump

00:11:22.340 tariffs. Do you not see that Trump has tariffs or other hurdles that other countries have to face?

00:11:28.420 They are all dealing with the same issue with Trump. Canada is not unique. Mexico is not in

00:11:34.720 a recession? Why are we in a recession? Why is the G20 not in a recession? Why are we the only

00:11:40.900 country here in a recession? They can't answer that. They don't want to answer that. Mark Carney

00:11:46.180 ran away from a reporter asking why we are in a technical recession. And the truth is, and he

00:11:52.220 actually later confirmed out, immigration is a big part of that. They knew they bolstered the economy

00:11:57.780 through mass, unmitigated, unchecked immigration to help cover up the state of the economy, the

00:12:04.120 lack of innovation, the lack of productivity, the lack of business investment. And this is

00:12:08.920 what they've done. And it makes me sad because these people, yes, there's lots of people that

00:12:12.700 came to scam the system and take advantage. Of course, the government let them do it. It was by

00:12:17.640 design. But then there are people like this gentleman here that actually came with good

00:12:21.480 intentions, that wanted to build into the Canadian dream, that bought into the promise and ended up

00:12:26.520 getting duped. And now he's headed back to India. And so another lesson here is that life is full

00:12:31.400 of failures. One of the biggest lessons that I got from a mentor about failure is imagine that

00:12:36.480 you can accomplish your goal, but it takes a hundred failures to get there. You will take

00:12:40.880 every failure with a smile. You will embrace it. You will learn from it and you will move on.

00:12:45.660 That is the biggest lesson from this. And I'm happy for this gentleman. He saw the failure,

00:12:49.480 even though it wasn't his fault and he decided to move on and pursue other opportunities. And

00:12:53.900 in that case, that's back in his home country. So props to him because we have a huge problem

00:12:58.140 in this country now. And not just him, like he seems like a great guy that I would want to have

00:13:02.960 in this country that would want to work hard to try to build the Canadian dream. And a big part

00:13:07.480 of that is when we bring people in, it's assimilation, not into, yes, we want to get into

00:13:12.460 the Canadian dream that you promised, but it's also the Canadian values. And look, I have to say

00:13:17.340 what I saw at a good life fitness gym yesterday really made me sick. Okay. Yes. I do work out

00:13:24.640 once in a while. Okay. And I go to the gym. This is my local good life fitness. You will not

00:13:30.160 believe your eyes. I don't know how to even describe what I saw. I tried my best in this

00:13:35.820 video that we're about to pop up, but I am just left stunned that this is the state of our country

00:13:41.960 now. And it all boils back to assimilation. Watch this video. Cannot believe this is what I saw at 0.75

00:13:47.540 my local gym. I finished my workout. I go to the dry sauna and this is what I see on the dry sauna.

00:13:53.040 people are defecating and pissing in the sauna they have to put this sign up this is at my local

00:13:59.600 good life fitness we have such a problem in this country with assimilation into canadian values

00:14:13.780 and i'm using that very i think that's like a baseline people this is not a one-off i cannot

00:14:20.460 tell you i've received dozens of messages from people at various gyms across canada people are

00:14:27.180 in the hallways in the jane change rooms they're in the sauna they're peeing in the sauna this is a

00:14:35.900 big problem we have i i can't i can't wrap my head around how a human being thinks it's okay

00:14:44.380 today to piss or in a hot sauna. I walked up to the sauna door. I thought, wow, I can't believe

00:14:52.640 this. And I thought in my head, do I want to go to this sauna? And I turned back around and it

00:14:59.460 pains me because I like good life. By the way, this is not something bad to say about good life

00:15:03.960 fitness or any other gym. I actually really like my good life fitness. It's got a lot of great

00:15:08.040 amenities. One of the amenities is the sauna that I wanted to use. They can't control necessarily

00:15:13.140 people pulling down their pants and taking a dump or taking a piss in a hot sauna.

00:15:18.180 But this comes down to the fact that I've never seen this in my life.

00:15:21.360 I was born and raised in this country.

00:15:22.640 I'm 35 years old.

00:15:23.700 I've never seen this in my life.

00:15:24.920 The fact that they have to put signs up in the washrooms for people not to defecate or

00:15:30.420 pee in places they should not is truly disgusting.

00:15:34.260 And it truly shows me that assimilation is not part of this country's values anymore

00:15:39.400 and what we want for immigration.

00:15:41.800 And it needs to be. 0.93

00:15:43.140 This is insane. This is insane. People need to know that we have a rule of conducting yourself.

00:15:50.120 We have a level of standard of conducting yourself in public places. You should not be peeing in hot

00:15:56.820 saunas. You should use the washroom. You should use the toilet. So this really honestly makes me

00:16:01.960 sick to my stomach. And it's just another piece of evidence of we do not have a proper immigration 1.00

00:16:08.120 program here, bringing people that will come and assimilate to Canadian values and to a standard 1.00

00:16:13.720 of first world living. This is not even third world. This is just common sense. I seriously

00:16:20.580 question how these people were raised to think about taking a pee in a hot sauna, taking a

00:16:28.000 in a hot sauna, in a public hot sauna. Forget your sauna. Maybe you're kinky. You want to take

00:16:35.960 in your sauna. You want to pee in your sauna and inhale that. I don't. The public doesn't.

00:16:42.720 I don't want to go into a hot sauna and inhale hot or hot pee. I want to relax. I want to smell

00:16:49.600 wood. I don't want to smell like honestly unbelievable, but thank you. Good life fitness

00:16:54.940 reached out to me. They saw the video. And again, this is nothing to say bad about good life. The

00:16:58.760 intent of this video was to not on good life. It was to drive awareness of the people in our gyms

00:17:05.580 and in places that they're not supposed to be. They do have when this, when these incidences

00:17:10.340 occur, and I can only speak for good life here, they do have a biohazard team, right? That comes

00:17:14.800 in and I guess with biohazard suits does whatever they need to do to disinfect it. And they clean

00:17:20.180 it every night. Sure. But I don't know. I don't know if that gets everything out there, but it

00:17:25.080 just speaks to, again, a broken immigration program and really a country that I don't want 0.81

00:17:29.600 to see devolve into where people are all of the places around the country where they shouldn't be. 0.68

00:17:35.580 So what, what a, what a crazy week. I hope I go back to my gym. I don't think I'll go back to

00:17:40.720 that sauna. I think I'll have to get my own sauna, but look, I really hope you guys enjoyed this.

00:17:44.820 If you haven't already, make sure you like this video, make sure to subscribe. And again,

00:17:48.400 thank you to my partner, Juno news. They're the largest independent media organization in this

00:17:52.540 country. And they are all about sharing these independent perspectives, these stories so that

00:17:57.360 we can share and have honest conversations. That's the entire purpose of this. That's the

00:18:01.760 entire purpose I started this is that I saw on mainstream media, we're not having open and honest

00:18:06.720 dialogue. We're not having open and honest perceptions and perspectives that are shared

00:18:11.080 so Canadians can debate on what's happening so we can build a better country. I don't want to leave

00:18:16.100 this country to my daughter, who's three years old right now, where people think it's okay in the

00:18:21.420 sauna. I don't. I want to have a great country that's peaceful, that's prosperous, that people

00:18:27.800 respect each other in. They respect the facilities. They respect our nature. They

00:18:31.880 respect our water. That's the country I want to leave our daughter in. And that's the country 0.90

00:18:35.420 I want to leave our children with. And so we can only do that if we're all together

00:18:39.880 in vocalizing our perspectives, in sharing these stories. So again, thank you to Juno News. Thank

00:18:45.340 you for watching. If you haven't already, make sure you subscribe to me and Juno. That seriously

00:18:48.740 helps. Seriously. So many of you, I think 47%, you watch these videos, you don't subscribe.
