In the video, he can be heard saying, “Jaha dekho dur dur tak sare Indian… looks like an invasion going on by Indians… Goa banakar rakha hai.” In English, this loosely translates to, “Wherever you look, it’s Indians everywhere… feels like the place has been taken over by Indians… they’ve practically turned it into Goa.”

The caption
The video was accompanied by a caption that read: "Assimilate or leave, this is how the white people are flooding the internet nowadays in Europe, US, Canada, Australia. Here is the video I went to Detroit Windsor Ontario Canada and I found almost 8/10 were Indians strolling the parks, riverfront enjoying the views. Even though not bothering anybody around them not messing up like other migrants do, Indians are very hard working and determined. Loyal to their culture, mind their own business but still it seems like it’s an invasion at least this is what the local born people think."
