00:00:00.000 immigration in canada means big business there's lots of money to be made in our system whether
00:00:12.160 it's through the international student system or through the multiple other pathways to permanent
00:00:16.720 residency each step along the way someone other than you of course is making lots of money through
00:00:23.440 this usually that's a large corporation saving lots of money by having an endless supply of cheap
00:00:28.720 foreign labor or maybe it's an international college making off like abandoned or that could
00:00:34.720 be an immigration agent in some far away foreign land but an entirely new industry has been flourishing
00:00:41.760 here in canada and that would be the industry of immigration consultants these immigration
00:00:47.200 consultants know all the ways of subverting canada and the loopholes in canada's immigration system
00:00:53.920 that allow them to make the most amount of money at the expense of you your family and the country
00:00:59.680 now these immigration consultants really are shameless they will post their so-called client
00:01:05.920 success stories on tiktok and instagram as advertisements to lure in more business from
00:01:12.320 new immigrants here but if you really want to see just how broken canada's immigration system is
00:01:17.520 well you'll want to watch the videos i'm about to show you before i do be sure to drop a like in the
00:01:21.840 video help us out by subscribing to the true north youtube channel and the comment question for the
00:01:25.600 episode is this should the government shut down these immigration consultancy firms let me know
00:01:33.040 your answer in the comments below and let's check out some of these videos before we get into these
00:01:38.080 immigration consulting tiktok videos i feel the urge to give some sort of disclaimer and that would be
00:01:43.840 that i'm not alleging what you're seeing in these videos to be illegal i'm not alleging that what these
00:01:48.480 consultants are doing is illegal i am however saying that what they do is deeply unethical shameful
00:01:54.880 and disgusting now with that out of the way let's get into this first immigration consulting tiktok
00:02:00.400 video it comes from apne immigration a woman who has been living in this country without a permit
00:02:07.120 without a legal reason to be here for over a year was given an 18 month postgraduate work permit
00:02:15.360 extension with the help of this woman right here take a listen status from last almost one year right
00:02:22.000 and with the right guidance because otherwise i think you were under the impression that you had
00:02:26.640 bought the trp right right yeah so it was a very simple application and it has been approved
00:02:34.560 it was a very simple application you were only living here for over a year illegally and now
00:02:41.360 it has been approved you've got a work permit in this country thank you thank you it's it's expiring
00:02:48.720 in january 2025 oh wow oh wow thank you so much i was i was so worried about it i was so worried about
00:02:59.200 it the client says as you can hear on the phone i was so worried about it that's why i didn't do
00:03:04.000 anything about it for over a year and the caption here under this tick tock client success story wow
00:03:11.200 what an achievement great success getting illegals a work permit extension hey maybe there are a few
00:03:17.520 people in charlottetown who might be availing themselves of apne immigration services well we'll
00:03:24.000 now move on to one of my favorite immigration consultants that would be n and m immigration services
00:03:32.240 now the reason gagging deep at n m consultants is my favorite immigration consultant is because the
00:03:38.240 way he makes his tick tock videos completely and utterly shameless good stuff for us and let's take
00:03:46.240 a look at this first one here once again just like the previous tick tock i showed you from a different
00:03:50.800 consultant the caption on this video success story with two maple leafs this guy is talking about his
00:03:57.760 visibility of converting visitor visas into a study permit into a student visa so someone comes here
00:04:05.360 and tells the border agent when they land in canada that they're only here to be a visitor and they're
00:04:09.600 going to leave when their visitor visa expires well once they get through the border they can just run
00:04:15.120 off to n m immigration services in brampton and voila with the help of gag and deep here they've got their
00:04:22.160 student visa check this video out good morning everyone i'm myself from and then immigration uh
00:04:28.400 today my friend meet uh patel is here he came here at the visitor visa and uh today he brought his
00:04:35.440 approval uh congratulations me uh this is your approval for your congratulations me can you say
00:04:41.040 something anything like in english we do not see anything you can say for our services and
00:04:46.720 the anything please say something good about my company say it in english say it in gujarati i don't
00:04:53.680 care just speak say something good about my company you gotta love gag and deep's uh video production
00:04:59.120 services here as well if uh if the immigration business doesn't work out for him maybe he's got
00:05:03.520 a future in production thank you sir he got me a visitor visa to uh he converted my visitor visa to
00:05:10.720 study permit and thank you no worries uh if you or any of your friend is in the same situation please

00:05:25.440 you go meet patel he got his visitor visa thanks to n m immigration services patel here clearly lied to
00:05:31.280 a border agent when the border agent asked if he would go home at the end of his visitor visa
00:05:36.000 because clearly he got a student visa but there's an interesting thing that happened with this
00:05:40.560 particular video you see again i'm not alleging anything is illegal with what we're watching here
00:05:45.600 clearly just unethical and a guy who's found a loophole in our system to make lots of money
00:05:50.080 well once i posted this video to my social media account just showing off what was going on well
00:05:56.720 gag and deep at n m immigration services deleted his video from tick tock he tried to erase this
00:06:03.120 video from his own account i wonder why he would do that if there's nothing illegal about it what are
00:06:08.400 you trying to hide well of course sure enough that wasn't the only time that l m have proudly shown off
00:06:14.560 their services at converting visitor visas into student visas because i found a second one that he posted
00:06:20.880 and obviously forgot to delete as well here we go take a look at this one good morning friends he's
00:06:26.080 even got a little uh airplane that kind of flies through the screen there he's even got animation
00:06:31.120 on these tick tocks good for him he said you got approval for our client he visited here as a mystery
00:06:37.440 visa and now we get him approved for the study permit congratulations for me thank you nobody see your
00:06:45.280 study permit please share your comments with us speaking will that be that's fine
00:06:55.600 covert visitor visa to study permit have you ever seen a more ironic spelling error than that i would
00:07:01.280 say that it is actually quite a covert operation that this guy here is running we also have a company
00:07:06.800 called acme visa solutions see they posted this video entirely in a foreign language about a
00:07:14.960 woman who has been able to convert a visitor visa into a work permit it's funny how that works isn't it
00:07:22.160 it seems as though when we're handing out visitor visas no one actually intends to just go home when
00:07:28.400 their visitor visa expires they all seem to be looking at ways to get through the system and enter into our
00:07:35.200 country here is this woman who has just received her work permit after uh coming to canada on a visitor visa
00:07:42.240 and she has nothing to say in english nothing to say in french either in the uh in the two
00:07:47.840 official languages of the country she is now officially a worker in but she does have about
00:07:54.240 30 seconds to speak in punjabi or some other foreign language sending the message back home hey look you come
00:08:00.640 here on a visitor visa well we can convert that for you into a work permit or if you're young enough
00:08:07.520 into a study permit as well now let me ask you of all the things that canada needs to solve right
00:08:13.200 now that our economy really needs to fix is the worker shortage in the long haul truck driver
00:08:20.240 industry near the top well according to the alberta government the ontario government and other major
00:08:25.840 provincial governments in this country we offer express entry permanent residency pathways for
00:08:32.560 long-haul truck drivers who happen to be of course foreigners acme visa solutions they've picked up on
00:08:39.680 this and just yesterday they posted a video of a gurkharpal singh randwara receiving his work permit to be a
00:08:48.960 long-haul truck driver now this is nothing against gurkharpal singh randawa here i don't know the
00:08:54.960 guy i'm sure he's a perfectly fine gentleman but he doesn't seem to be the youngest chap that's for
00:09:00.160 sure and i don't know if this gentleman here is going to help solve the the the country's demographic
00:09:08.400 problems as pierre pauliev likes to remind us after all it was pierre pauliev who said we need
00:09:14.880 immigrants to drive truck and to solve our demographic shortage not my words those were his
00:09:21.200 words we need 700 young people to work in our factories in our hospitals in our shopping centers
00:09:27.760 driving truck anyway i want to go back to apne immigration our lovely friend here who's very nifty
00:09:36.160 with the immigration loopholes in our system remember a few weeks ago when mark miller announced
00:09:40.800 that registered caregivers would be given permanent residency on arrival in canada pr on arrival well
00:09:48.720 we have apne immigration jumping right on the news right on the big news and letting you know
00:09:54.000 that if you're a permanent resident in canada well you can sponsor your brother or sister to be a
00:10:00.800 registered caregiver and get them pr on arrival come on man that's too easy who knew that everyone's
00:10:08.160 brother and sister were registered caregivers you may have seen our videos on the caregiver program
00:10:14.000 which usually opens once a year with this very program you can invite your brothers or sisters to
00:10:19.280 take care of your family in canada they only need one year of education after high school and they need
00:10:25.600 clb level of just five in english proficiency one year of education after high school and you can bring
00:10:32.560 them in as caregivers to look after not the canadian people right you're not here to bring your
00:10:37.840 family to look after the canadian public and to do something good for the country no you're bringing
00:10:42.800 them here to look after your own family did you catch that that's a specific piece of wording that
00:10:48.880 i want you to listen in on invite your brothers or sisters to take care of your family in canada
00:10:54.320 take care of your family in canada i'm pretty sure when mark miller announced the rules he wasn't
00:11:00.800 thinking it was going to be a way to bring in as many people as possible just to look after
00:11:05.280 themselves or maybe he wasn't he's just that diabolical i'm pretty sure the idea behind it
00:11:09.360 was that we were going to be able to increase the amount of people who can look after the elderly in
00:11:15.040 this country but of course that's not the way our friends at apne immigration see it of course it is
00:11:20.640 a way to make lots of money by bringing in your own family and wouldn't you just know it for whatever
00:11:26.960 reason just like n and m immigration services apne immigration the woman here she deleted her video
00:11:35.600 from instagram after i reposted it to social media what what is this woman trying to hide what is she
00:11:43.600 so afraid of now if you've been curious as to how these immigration consultants managed to do so well
00:11:48.560 and seem to have such high success rates well maybe it's because they actually team up with
00:11:55.120 international colleges they become official partners they enter into official partnerships
00:12:02.000 with colleges like seneca college where if you use n m immigration services for example well i would bet
00:12:08.880 your chances of getting an admissions letter to seneca college gets pretty high again someone with a
00:12:15.280 modicum of shame might not post this video but clearly that doesn't exist with n m immigration services
00:12:22.480 hello everyone i'm nagasarit pandrangi the regional business development manager for seneca for south
00:12:27.840 asia region today i'm at vision consultancy with me is mr gavandeep we have been working together for
00:12:35.360 more than five years now vision consultancy is one of our top mode consultants in toronto helping us with
00:12:42.480 onshore applications any onshore students who wants to kind of apply to seneca please come to vision they'll be
00:12:50.080 able to help you with the application and once you have applied we'll also fast track your applications
00:12:55.920 uh from vision once you've applied to seneca college through this guy's immigration consultancy
00:13:03.920 according to the seneca college official they will fast track your application that's how this whole
00:13:10.400 thing works isn't it like i said earlier just by watching these videos you can really get a better
00:13:15.120 understanding of how this entire industry works they don't leave much up to the imagination they
00:13:20.160 pretty much just tell you right up front one of the ways that international students manage to get
00:13:26.800 so many jobs in our country is through what is called an lmia a labor market impact assessment
00:13:34.960 basically what that means is that an employer will need to spend a thousand dollars per employee
00:13:40.960 they want to hire who is not a canadian citizen and not a permanent resident to justify and explain
00:13:48.800 that they could not hire a canadian for that position now of course you can immediately see how this
00:13:55.040 is being abused but the public cost for an lmia a labor market impact assessment that is available on the
00:14:04.480 government's website says a thousand dollars it costs a thousand dollars per employee for an employer to
00:14:12.160 submit an lmia application with that in mind knowing that an lmia is only a thousand dollars from the
00:14:19.600 federal government it's very strange when you find an immigration consultant like kanwar siara a man who we
00:14:26.640 had a 25-minute conversation with two weeks ago that on his own instagram page he posts this
00:14:34.400 video again entirely in punjabi with the caption why buy an lmia for fifty thousand dollars when you
00:14:44.400 can buy a business and sponsor your relatives at the same cost how many relatives is this guy trying to
00:14:51.440 sponsor with fifty thousand dollars of lmia applications i'm sure he's not trying to get people to bring in
00:14:58.640 50 relatives so where's all the extra money for these lmias going is it going into the pockets of
00:15:05.600 these immigration agents perhaps but also who are the people that we're bringing into this country
00:15:10.160 who have fifty thousand dollars to buy a business just to sponsor their relatives and what kind of
00:15:16.960 business are these people buying that only costs fifty thousand dollars well there you have it we've seen
00:15:22.720 some of these immigration consultant tick tocks we've seen just how dirty this system really is
00:15:28.800 and all the games that are being played under our noses all these little backdoor loopholes that are
00:15:34.720 being done behind our backs to subvert our system getting visitors converted into work permits getting
00:15:41.600 50 year olds a long-haul truck driver work permit converting visitor visas to student visas and granting
00:15:48.000 postgraduate work permits to people who have been living in this country illegally for over a year
00:15:53.680 it's truly shocking just how broken canada's free-for-all immigration system has become
00:16:00.160 under justin trudeau all right everyone that's going to do it for us this week on the show thank
00:16:04.080 you so much for tuning in my name is harrison faulkner and this is ratio
