65 per cent of Canadians say Canada is accepting too many legal immigrants. That figure, less than a year ago in February, was just 50 per cent. In March 2019, only 35 per cent of Canadians held that view.
Background:
Based on this poll https://acs-metropolis.ca/studies/negative-sentiment-towards-immigrants-in-canada-is-on-the-rise/
Has an n of 1612. 50% admit not having a good understanding of immigration policy.
Imagine fucking mass migration policy this bad to where the most welcoming immigrant country turned on you…
Justin is a fucking idiot. You have build housing and infrastructure if you want to import this many people. This is common sense, they know this… so why are they doing it anyway?
Housing cost in Canada is meme but hey lets add 1 million people into country with 2 million beds short.
Justin is a fucking idiot. You have build housing and infrastructure if you want to import this many people.
Say it with me: The Federal Government is not responsible for housing and infrastructure.
Now that we’ve got that out of the way, it’s up to provincial and municipal leadership to stop allowing so many single, detached homes and start developing some higher density housing.
But first, you have to convince the NIMBYs that higher density homes won’t send their community into ruin… Good luck!
Its like health care, people complain to the PM, but its a provincial matter.
Add in roads/traffic, energy, prisons, social services, long-term care, police, snow removal, etc., etc., etc.
Literally, the things that affect people on a daily basis are NOT matters of the Federal Government.
So when the 'fuck Trudeau", flag-waving, F150 crowd is pissed off about their current situation, they should stop to think why they keep voting for a Conservative government.
Unless they have a grievance about our national parks, foreign policy, aboriginal land, or national defence, they should focus their anger on the leadership who are actually causing harm to this country and their communities.
** Unless you are a recognized native person, WE ARE ALL IMMIGRANTS ** Jfc, you people are dumb.
I am the descendant of immigrants.
Where would I be sent if deported?
I only have one citizenship.
Being a citizen does not make you any less of an immigrant. Being a descendant of immigrants also, surprisingly still makes you an immigrant. So perhaps we should stop talking about punishing immigrants as if it’s some new novel thing that’s causing all our ills. Immigration evidently worked for all of us, so let’s try not to sh*t all over the people that follow us. Immigration built Canada and, if you’ve noticed our birth rate over the past decade, without immigration, Canada will die. Frankly we need them more than they need us.
Oh, so several generations of my family were born here, we don’t have a single country of origin, (even if we knew it) doesn’t make me a natural born resident of my geographic area?
Fuck off with that dipshit idea.
Edit: please point out where being born in a country makes you an immigrant there.
Postmedia is stepping up its Fox Newsification of Canadian news
Comments on /r/Canada are so fucking weird. Someone literally said “I was an immigrant turned citizen and I support this”. It’s like: now that you have your citizenship you aren’t considered an immigrant anymore? Wow.
Edit changes “I am” for “I was”
I don’t know of a single Timmie’s in my region which isn’t staffed entirely by Filipinos or other foreign nationals that live 20 to a flat that is also owned by their employer.
We deport these people, and prices of a lot of things are going to spike dramatically. Those business owners won’t be able to earn those many millions a year if they can only hire Canadian citizens.
