How about bring zero in, our crime rate has exploded thanks to those asshat liberals. We have 48 terrorists here that numbnuts Trudeau lost, so he says.
That's very true. In my father's case, he moved the whole family here from England in 1960, and from the time he arrived until he passed away, he worked as a police officer, an insurance broker, a business analyst and eventually a diplomat in the customs and excise division of the Canadian embassy in Japan. He also served for many years as a major in the armed forces reserves.
The point is, how many of the new arrivals will do what he, or his contemporaries did without ever once asking for government assistance? It's also worth mentioning that the first place we rented was a suite in a home owned by a Russian family who went through the war, and similar to my father, built up their stake in Canada through hard work, in his case as a labourer with the CPR. They helped us a lot actually, looking after me and my little brother while my mom worked to save up for a down payment, and after we bought a home, even helped us build a garage.
My father's story is typical of Canada in the 50's and 60's. Most of my friends growing up had parents from Poland, Hungary, Germany, the USSR... you get the idea. Economic refugees basically. So the question is, what percentage of new arrivals will follow the example set by that earlier generation (and the ones who came before) and what percentage are just taking advantage of Canada's generosity? Another question: how many have the actual skills to do what my father's generation did?
I'm not grinding an axe here, just asking what I believe are pertinent questions. The whole concept of immigration is based on the idea that the new arrivals will be contributing to the nation's growth and well being. That was definitely true in the past, but how true is it today?
The Liberal Party of Canada is a Marxist political party that seeks to subvert the Canadian state on multiple fronts. It employs woke ideology to divide & damage Canadian communities. The same strategy is being used by the US Democratic Party, the British Labour Party, & European parties. If this subversion continues then ordinary citizens might as well emigrate to a nation where this subversion has not been normalized. The West has been defeated from within by the Left.
That’s still not enough of a reduction and too slow. These parasites are ruining our country which is all part of the WEF agenda. Government is a scam, politicians are not trustworthy and never were. Who will be the next Crime Minister? Only time will tell.
How many times were Canadians who opposed the immigration targets as too high vilified as xenophobic, "unCanadian" (that old chestnut JT's been lobbing at Canadians who disagree with him since 2015), racist and too ignorant to "understand" before they were finally heard?
Number of units being built is dropping. Because insane demand puts housing through the roof. A few construction items have quadrupled since 2020. And 0 of the Trudeau Canadians seems to have construction ability but lots o DEI ability.
One of the absurdities of the housing bubble I've noticed is in Langford (suburb of Victoria) where they're cutting into the side of the mountains to build new homes. I know what it costs to blast rock and haul it away, and this could never be done with housing prices in an affordable range.
As I mentioned elsewhere, if you run out of room, you build up, and I don't mean up the side of a mountain. You build affordable high rise apartments, made possible by the economy of scale of having multiple units on a single lot.
This is still way TOO MANY people coming into Canada!But, look at all of the mindless bobbleheads behind him 🙄
Yup!
Too late. Damage has already been done
Still too many, and we need mass remigration.
Maybe they'll leave on their own once they see their countries have more Sun, and common sense.
Could they please explain how they plan to make this happen?
Too little, too late. You're trying to fix a problem that you caused yourselves!
^^^ THIS! ^^^
They are just pretending to fix this huge problem. It’s all smoke and mirrors. How stupid do they think we are?

And more Canadians criming than anyone. Maybe you all
Could leave 🙋🏼♀️
Gtfoh
Unless you are a part of the Indigenous/First Nations people, everyone else came from someone else.

Well paying jobs for new arrivals are just not there any more. Rents have gone through the roof. Our country is run by fools.
The cons don’t care. They just want nationalism
These clowns have destroyed Canada and it will take decades to recoup. What a disaster.
They will be long gone by then thank God

You have housing and jobs for this many people??

365,000 is hardly a reduction. And its way to many. unless we like housing to be unaffordable.
Housing is already unaffordable for many who were born here, never mind someone "fresh off the boat" with no skills.
I will listen when they close the boarder to illegals
It needs to be reduced to ZERO
It won't be long before most of the Ministers in Canada will be immigrants.
