@kimomuhminn remember when these international "students" made a stink about their work hours cut a few months ago? They aren't here to focus on study and go back, they are trying to work and work to get permanent residency and then their whole entire family and village will come to live in a mcmansion in Caledon with 200 people and their tacky style. They will do any means to get what they want, even if it's food from the food bank, cheat their driving license and/or truck driving license. There are so many ways they are cheating/exploiting the system and it's slowly coming out and people are realizing it. Plus they are just darn rude.
Why is it “really, really awful”? It’s been shown that international students are taking advantage of food banks only because they want to spend their money elsewhere. They have a responsibility, when they come to this country, to have enough income to provide for themselves.

I'm not even Canadian or been to Canada and I'm outraged by these 'activists" trying to take an advantage of your hospitality, if they cannot afford their live there THEY SHOULDN'T BE THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE.
I am an immigrant, and the food bank is for Canadians not for internationals, especially international students. Studying in a foreign country is a luxury so if you cannot afford it then stay in your country.
I agree that well-off people (such as international students) should be able to figure out food. But, I imagine some poorer "internationals" (such as many refugees) have the same challenges as poorer Canadians; and I hope that Canadians' charity extends to them.
@@wendigo53 There should be no place for refugees in Canada or anywhere else in the world. We can’t allow people who have messed up their own countries and now come to mess up our country or any other countries in the world
I am an immigrant myself! Why should food bank provide in the first place? If you cannot afford/ feed yourself then you should better hop on that plane back to your place. As a student I never expected someone to provide me with free food. I struggled and worked even with part time and even getting just 8 hours/week . And mind you we had 20hrs/week limit
how is he paying for international education yet hasnt planned for food? hopefully he is studying a home economics certificate for 6 months and returning home
As South African currently working in Vancouver, the food bank is meant to be for Canadians. It makes no sense for someone to leave their home country to come “study” in Canada when they can’t afford to live in Canada. As immigrants we need to stop exploiting the kindness of Canadian people and take responsibility for our lives and the choices we made when we came here.
We stopped. We will not be used by foreigners to pad their pockets while they pretend to study. We donate through other forums where we have more direct knowledge of who the donations go to... Canadians only. If I wanted to support Indian nationals, I would send donations to India.
If an international student needs to be dependent on food banks. Why did they did they migrate here in the first place? It needs to be for those who can not afford lavish international expenditures, in order to keep banks sustainable
I agree. Their should be a law in every province if you are a international student you cannot go to food banks and if you do you will be deported and for citizens who do help them for Illegal food banks will get stiff prison time. If you cannot support yourself do not come here as a international student period. Also if your a International student in Canada and are not in university or college or school and are working instead you should be immediately deported.
Yes, but who is going to stop them from using the food banks? Does the country have a system in place to identify users who should or shouldn't be taking food?
@maryjeanjones7569 Actually, yes. it does. I volunteered for years at a food bank. They all had to meet with me and provide their information before they were given food. We also tracked how often they came because there are monthly limits.
Good. They should be barred completely. They came promising enough funds to sustain themselves. Didn’t they? Or the plan was to just come to Canada with whatever fake documents and then live off the system till their asylum claim is finalized. It’s mainly students from just country who want to do this. Funny the “concerned” activists shown in the video are all from that contrary.
... at least, only east Indians were described in this story. Maybe there are other nation's people, at this or other food banks? (No need to shade in the racist bubble. ALL international students should be able to figure out food, no matter where they are from.)
@@wendigo53 No they should not be. They’re supposed to be able to sustain themselves unless they lied on their financial standings when they came over. Also, east, west or south India is none of Canada’s problem. Once they go overseas, they represent their country in the world and the way Indian students have conducted themselves here over last few years is highly disgraceful to their country. Lastly, you cannot condone cheating the system of a welcoming and trusting society like Canada with labels like racism.
Can you imagine if thousands of Canadians went to India and demanded social supports like this? If $20,000 isn't enough to support yourself in Canada then the amount needs to be raised.
As an immigrant and international student, I am ashamed that there are people like this. Canada is not a charity program. Do not come here if you don't have resources, the food bank is for Canadians.
The food bank is correct. When international students apply for a place in university, they have to show prove of finances, they are expected to take care of themselves. If they need to earn some money, they can find some part time jobs. If this activist feel so strongly that these students need help, gets food bank set up from their community.
Well food bank should be only for canadian citizens and permanent resident as international students come here to study and they are financially stable enough to take care of themselves.
... and, beyond CA citizens and permanent residents, there may be more little groups like temporary refugees, temporary workers suddenly unemployed, ... I agree that well-off people (including international students) can figure out food.
I am an international student and I still agree that they should not be given any. It is very unfair to Canadians that you literally just landed and you are already at the food banks. First you lie your way to getting the visa then you go on further to be putting strain on the system for Canadians. They are the ones that make all of us look so bad…. It’s disgusting
If they can afford to pay over $18000 for their tuition, they can pay for their food. On top of tuition, they're paying for their rent...so, again, they should be able to afford paying for their food. I've heard time and time again, that a lot of them are taking advantage of, and abusing Canada's hospitality...I'm starting to lean on that statement myself.
I wonder why they have the money to study here then? Tuition for international students is higher than for Canadian citizens. If you can afford the luxury of studying abroad, you shouldn't be using up the resources to feed the poor who are less fortunate.
Honestly, Canada has the leverage to demand only the best of the best students in the world. Many people globally apply to come to Canada among others and we can afford to pick and choose the best quality applicants. We shouldn’t be picking bottom of the barrel candidates who look to abuse the food bank and other social services. Do better Canada, it may not sound politically correct, but that’s the reality of being a relatively affluent and sought after nation.
I have seen people selling foodbank food on Facebook. It's only Indians doing it. They should also stop giving out student visas for courses that can easily be done online. Only if a course requires an actual practical apprenticeship, then a student should be allowed to study in Canada. Everyone else should just stay in India.
I thought you needed to prove you have sufficient funds to be able to study abroad in Canada? If you can't afford it, then why are you studying abroad?🤡🤡
Food banks are for needy Canadians and NOT for international students. If you cannot support yourself financially while in Canada, do not come here. As simple as that. Canadians are not in the business of being generous to foreigners when their own are in dire circumstances.
There must be a rush of time, international students. They must prove that they are able to support themselves and pay all the costs of studying in advance.

Well here in toronto the so called students that come to food banks are anywhere between 16 and 20 and i have seen line ups full of them.What the government gives food banks are not enough. Most food is privately donated. Why our government doesnt take them all to his house house them and feed them? We have more than enough needy people of our own .Yes i agree with the food banks in vancouver.Enough is enough.They take our jobs, our housing and now the food to.What else more they feel entitle to? And if government is supporting food banks its with tax payers money. THEY have no money for food but they weare brand name clothes and shoes.
When you apply to be an international student you have to have the funding to support yourself during your term here, you don't have the right to access our supply.
International student should run their daily living from there own savings and they came here by knowing this. Why to take unfair advantage from Canadian.
That’s the right thing to do, as I know some wealthy family students from abroad, when they arrive the first thing to find where is the local food bank. It’s a shame for Canadian. They take advantage of people’s kindness and then laugh at it.
International students are supposed to be given visas only after they prove they have proof of funds to support themselves for atleast a year. Why would you go to a food bank ? This should be grounds for deporatation and action should be taken against the officer who cleared that person's visa.
The international students know that they are not allowed to ask support to government as they know that applying to become international students provide their own needs and can support for the duration of their studies
When an international student comes in Canada on study permit, they provided they can support all expenses during the study. So, they shouldn’t depend on the Food bank.
Canadian families and seniors need the food bank more. If you can't afford to feed yourself I don't understand how you could afford to travel to a different country for your schooling. Canadians are struggling more than usual we can't afford to be giving our resources away anymore
If they can afford really high international tuition fees, they should be able to afford to pay for their food when they come here that is not our responsibility.
How about ALL international students, they are supposed to have the means to sustain themselves and only work on the sectors of their career, if hired, for 20 hrs max and just for work experience and not sustainability... If they have no money or food then go home cuz you'll end up homeless and without food.
That's what I don't get either. I did my entire Project Management (PMI) certification including exam online during COVID when we couldn't travel. I was in Yellowknife at the time, but for exams before COVID you had to travel to either Edmonton, Vancouver or Calgary. Why can they not do the same?
I agree with this! Many immigrants go into the food bank claim several in the home then a person from the same home will do the same. They are taking all from us Canadians that have struggled for years
Only job for international students , u come to get a western education for whatever yr is your program, finish , graduate and better your own country of origin, not expecting to receive benefits that are for Canadian Citizen!!! GO To CLASS the GO BACK HOME. Not destroy , not protest and demanding rights that your not a citizen off.
International students are supposed to be able to support them selves it's in the paper work when you come over to study here you are supposed to show you have enough money to feed yourself and other life expenses.
Let's not forget the Indian RUclipsrs posting "How To" Videos on RUclips bragging about all the Extra Income they Make from Selling the Food on Marketplace and Kijiji and all the Money they Save by not having to buy food.
Buddy, you’re supposed to have enough money to support yourself to come to study in Canada. Why was your student visa approved in the first place? Are you attending SFU or UBC or some PR mill owned?
If they can afford to come to Canada they should also have a system in place for their needs not using food banks that are for the hungry local canadians!
Food banks are for people with low income mostly seniors. International students have stipulation in their application that they have enough money for tuition and living expenses. I just dont get your point. Why come here of you cant afford?
"It's not going to go very far with the rents and the cost of living." Okay, so then we need to tell them they need to have access to more than the current 20,000. The food banks now can't keep up with Canadian citizens' needs.
You knew it was gonna be expensive before you got here! If you didn't have the money why would you choose to go to school in this country? The food bank is for CANADIANS who didn't choose to be poor, you choose to come to an extremely expensive country and come to school here! I would never think to go to school in another country if I couldn't afford it, and I actually wanted to go to UCLA in California and I had the grades for it, but I didn't have the money, do you think it would have been smart for me to just move to LA , one of the cities with the highest homeless rates in the world with no money and just a hope to get a job? That's a terrible plan!
Cannot wait for the immigrant cap. We should especially put a cap/limit countries that can have international students here. Im tired of being gassed on the transit cause they don't know what deoderant is 🙄 you know which country.
International students pay crazy tuition to be here....they should by definition have enough funds to survive. Studying abroad is a privilege of the wealthy
Good. They should not be able to take advantage of our social programs that are meant to help OUR citizens. If they can't support themselves, they shouldn't be here.
20k is not enough for them to sustain themselves. But the solution is to raise the threshold requirement for entry to Canada, not to give them our resources. They should have at least 50k before coming, in order to pay tuition and living expenses.
Gov is at fault. Requiring only 20k for them to come. .isn't tuition for them like 20k?? Raise it to you need minimum 60k and suddenly it will change. My husband is from Scotland we need a minimum 44k to go there and next year it goes to 68k. They've raised the figures because of abuse. Canada needs to do this!!
And I am married to an immigrant who is now a Canadian citizen. You must come here prepared to support yourself. “The rent is high”, go live in Leduc, AB. NOT VANCOUVER
how did they pass the visa application if they dont have enough funds to support themselves while they study? is the visa application requirements a joke nowadays?
Only need 20k .. which is just for your tuition nevermind living expenses. Gov made it too easy for them. Need to increase that amount to 60k or above. Esp considering they can only work 20 hours off campus. they should have more than enough money to compensate for that. Or don't come. Simple.
If you can't afford to feed yourself while seeking an education abroad then you should not do it. simple.
Exactly. If you cannot afford it , don't come.
Literally was always part of the rules, but food banks weren't enforcing.
It was already in the book for decades, they are just not catching or deporting the people who lied on applications.

What a bunch of clowns abusing Candian system.
Bunch? Thousands
@@billclay9511 ~3M non-permanent residents (NPRs) currently on Canadian soil, overwhelmingly Indian Foreign Students!
SIN for all NPRs starts with 9!
The international students know that they are not allowed to ask support to government as they know that applying to become international students provide their own needs and can support for the duration of their studies
Sorry they're not Canadian citizens.They're here for school so they shouldn't begin our food
people coming over for university should have enough money to eat.
Good decision. International students are from well off families.
When an international student comes in Canada on study permit, they provided they can support all expenses during the study. So, they shouldn’t depend on the Food bank.
Canadian families and seniors need the food bank more. If you can't afford to feed yourself I don't understand how you could afford to travel to a different country for your schooling. Canadians are struggling more than usual we can't afford to be giving our resources away anymore
If they can afford really high international tuition fees, they should be able to afford to pay for their food when they come here that is not our responsibility.
It is insane. Studying here is a luxury. We owe these folks nothing.
How about ALL international students, they are supposed to have the means to sustain themselves and only work on the sectors of their career, if hired, for 20 hrs max and just for work experience and not sustainability...
If they have no money or food then go home cuz you'll end up homeless and without food.
Can't they study online?
That's what I don't get either. I did my entire Project Management (PMI) certification including exam online during COVID when we couldn't travel. I was in Yellowknife at the time, but for exams before COVID you had to travel to either Edmonton, Vancouver or Calgary. Why can they not do the same?
Why is it awful?
Aren't they supposed to be able to cover their own expenses wasn't that part of their visa requirement?
I agree with this! Many immigrants go into the food bank claim several in the home then a person from the same home will do the same. They are taking all from us Canadians that have struggled for years
Agree. Because Canada’s families have a lot of people need the foods . Canadian firstly .
The food bank is for Canadians and Carr knows that .
Are we supposed to care or you want us to point and laugh?
My mom's food bank shut down! None wants to donate if it's going to Cheap People.
Only job for international students , u come to get a western education for whatever yr is your program, finish , graduate and better your own country of origin, not expecting to receive benefits that are for Canadian Citizen!!! GO To CLASS the GO BACK HOME. Not destroy , not protest and demanding rights that your not a citizen off.
International students are supposed to be able to support them selves it's in the paper work when you come over to study here you are supposed to show you have enough money to feed yourself and other life expenses.
Let's not forget the Indian RUclipsrs posting "How To" Videos on RUclips bragging about all the Extra Income they Make from Selling the Food on Marketplace and Kijiji and all the Money they Save by not having to buy food.
Buddy, you’re supposed to have enough money to support yourself to come to study in Canada. Why was your student visa approved in the first place? Are you attending SFU or UBC or some PR mill owned?
If an international student can’t afford food, then it’s time to go home.
If they can afford to come to Canada they should also have a system in place for their needs not using food banks that are for the hungry local canadians!
Food banks are for people with low income mostly seniors. International students have stipulation in their application that they have enough money for tuition and living expenses. I just dont get your point. Why come here of you cant afford?
Blame the government if 2millions Canadians are food insecure what do u expect. You can’t blame the food bank..
food banks are not foe international students. don't come here if you can't afford it
Not awful. You were supposed to come here with money to be able to buy food.
"It's not going to go very far with the rents and the cost of living." Okay, so then we need to tell them they need to have access to more than the current 20,000. The food banks now can't keep up with Canadian citizens' needs.
That’s why it was called Canadian food banks not international food banks only for Canadian
It’s a problem that we have to pay everything for international students
From what I understand is international student aresupposed to have enough money to support themselves when they come to Canada.
Only need 20k...tuition is about 20k ...government is at fault for allowing such a low threshold.
Get a job and buy your own food.
You knew it was gonna be expensive before you got here! If you didn't have the money why would you choose to go to school in this country? The food bank is for CANADIANS who didn't choose to be poor, you choose to come to an extremely expensive country and come to school here! I would never think to go to school in another country if I couldn't afford it, and I actually wanted to go to UCLA in California and I had the grades for it, but I didn't have the money, do you think it would have been smart for me to just move to LA , one of the cities with the highest homeless rates in the world with no money and just a hope to get a job? That's a terrible plan!
They're not here to focus on studying and go back home, they are just trying to acquire money and apply for permanent residency.
Finally, a good decision!
Cannot wait for the immigrant cap. We should especially put a cap/limit countries that can have international students here. Im tired of being gassed on the transit cause they don't know what deoderant is 🙄 you know which country.
And loud Punjabi music in public transport😮😮😮
International students pay crazy tuition to be here....they should by definition have enough funds to survive. Studying abroad is a privilege of the wealthy
International students Can't afford food?
Here's a thought...go home
Good. They should not be able to take advantage of our social programs that are meant to help OUR citizens. If they can't support themselves, they shouldn't be here.
My question is, do students come here without money? That means they’re taking Canadian money if they’re broke.
Stop bringing International students to colleges. University students don’t do this at all.
20k is not enough for them to sustain themselves. But the solution is to raise the threshold requirement for entry to Canada, not to give them our resources. They should have at least 50k before coming, in order to pay tuition and living expenses.
Absolutely agree! They know they can only work off campus a max of 20 hours a week ...yet come with no money and wanting to work.
Gov is at fault. Requiring only 20k for them to come. .isn't tuition for them like 20k?? Raise it to you need minimum 60k and suddenly it will change. My husband is from Scotland we need a minimum 44k to go there and next year it goes to 68k. They've raised the figures because of abuse. Canada needs to do this!!
20k isn't a cap. Nothing is stopping them from bringing more money. Still 100% the student's fault.
And I am married to an immigrant who is now a Canadian citizen. You must come here prepared to support yourself. “The rent is high”, go live in Leduc, AB. NOT VANCOUVER
Rent is high everywhere now especially AB 🙄
how did they pass the visa application if they dont have enough funds to support themselves while they study? is the visa application requirements a joke nowadays?
Only need 20k .. which is just for your tuition nevermind living expenses. Gov made it too easy for them. Need to increase that amount to 60k or above. Esp considering they can only work 20 hours off campus. they should have more than enough money to compensate for that. Or don't come. Simple.
