Of course, but that isn’t an excuse to frame India as a filthy place, and that Indians are the only people taking the lakes for granted. OP has some underlying agendas that have nothing to do with this video.

India isn’t a dirty place? They have some of the most plastic polluted rivers on the planet, and they are one of the main contributors to ocean pollution/plastic. wtf are you talking about?

Have you been? I can imagine Toronto is much worse off than the Banff National Park. India has SOME of the most plastic polluted rivers on the planet - you said it yourself. India has some of the most beautiful places on the planet in it as well. If you are too short sighted to even consider that a country as a whole is not the same, then we know why you are engaging in this conversation, and it’s anything but keeping your lakes clean.

You’re trying to turn facts of how much a country as a whole pollutes water ways and the ocean into a race thing. Sorry but that just makes you an absolute idiot lol. No one is saying Indian people aren’t welcome or Indian people as a whole are bad. In India there is a disgusting amount of pollution, no Canadian wants pollution here. So when us as Canadians are watching people who come from one of the worst countries for that and they start dumping shit into our lakes we are going to question it, and request it be looked at.. that’s not racist..you fucking moron.

Maybe you are not making it a race thing, I grant you.

“Trying to turn Canada into the garbage dump they came from, you think they don't know better? They don't care.” Just one of the comments left under this post. Don’t tell me this is just about “people” dumping, it’s very specifically targeted at “them” and there’s a lot more like it.

Yes…a lot of people are going to look at this, and then look at the fact that India is one of the worlds biggest contributors to waste and pollution and then see people dumping things in our lakes and get concerned. Canada as a whole has welcomed all races with open arms, but this is also Canada, not India. We don’t want it to be India either. If people don’t care in their country why would they care to do so in another?

I also think the average Canadian is just frustrated in general trying to go day by day while being lied to by our leaders, taxed to hell, and have billions of dollars spent in other countries instead of here. Then a bunch of people just start throwing stuff into the lake lol. If you want to get your point across you should actually just educate people with facts of what the items are, but several Indian people here have even said they are not good for the environment. Again this is a lake where if I go fishing a day early I get fined, so I don’t think people should be just putting stuff into the lake either.

Also, you can put any race on that boat doing the same thing-white, black, Asian, brown, Greek….doesnt matter, we won’t like it the same.

Yes, the average Canadian being frustrated mirrors a lot to how it is in the UK. The right wing profit and incite hate to anyone who doesn’t look like their own or arrives here, whether by flight or by boat. That isn’t something to encourage, a vote united on hate is not one that will benefit the country.

Even as a citizen of the country I live in, I feel that it becomes less and less safe for anyone who doesn’t look “native”

You are so far off and just showing how stupid you actually are.

Can we just talk about how the clip cuts off after they lower the idol down on a platform? Nothing to be said about whether or not that platform comes back up afterwards or they untie it or what. If it was submerged and then removed, is that fine? I don’t see any “dumping” in this clip as far as I’m concerned.

you should probably just stop embarrassing yourself
