Ottawa: A video of a Chinese woman expressing surprise over the large Indian population in Canada has gone viral on social media. In the video, shared on X, the woman mentions that she is recording from a place where driving license tests are conducted in Canada. She goes on to say that anyone unfamiliar with the location might think she is in India due to the number of Indians present.
The woman, visibly surprised, comments in the video, “This is unbelievable.” The clip has sparked mixed reactions from social media users, with some supporting her views while others criticizing them. During the video, she shows a picture of the people waiting for their driving tests and adds, “It’s unbelievable. I’m surrounded by Indians here in Canada. I’ll record this for you, showing how many of them are at the driving test location.”

The video, which was uploaded on X a few days ago, has now crossed over 2.8 million views. Reactions to the post have been varied. Some users pointed out the irony, as the woman herself is an immigrant in Canada. One user commented, “I visited Vancouver a few years back, and 40% of the population there were Chinese immigrants. Maybe she should also consider going back home.” Another user sarcastically remarked, “It’s ironic since the Chinese population here is much larger.”
The video surfaces at a time when immigration is being blamed for several social issues in Canada, such as the rising cost of living and a shortage of affordable housing. This comes shortly after Canada announced stricter rules for issuing education permits to foreign students and tighter regulations for foreign workers.
