Pregnant Women Travelling for "Free Births"?

In a viral video, a Canian man expressed his anger over what he sees as misuse of Cana’s healthcare system. He claims that some women from India come to Cana to have babies, so ir children can become Canian citizens, all at cost of Canian taxpayers.

Ch shared a story about his niece, who recently gave birth in a Canian hospital. According to Ch, a nurse told his niece that ward was full of foreign Indian women coming to Cana for sole purpose of delivering ir babies. Ch argues that while Canian hospitals are obligated to provide care to all, se women are occupying valuable space in maternity wards that could be used by Canian citizens.

Ch also raised concerns about cost of healthcare for se women, saying y likely don’t have Canian health insurance. He questions wher it is possible to recover payments from se women once y return to India with ir children.

Ch’s rant takes a broer turn when he suggests that children born to se women will grow up to become Canian citizens, later returning to Cana to sponsor ir parents and extended family for immigration. This, according to Ch, creates a cycle that ultimately costs Canian taxpayers.
