      “The consequences of this major growth in the number of international students and temporary workers permits have been thoroughly discussed elsewhere, so I merely mention here the dramatic growth that has continued through to mid-2024, now up to an unprecedented 7.2 percent of the Canadian total population. Historically the NPR population had hovered at around 1 to 2 percent of Canada’s total, but more recently, this has been dramatically altered.”

      . . .

      “Using IRCC’s mid-range estimate of 260,000 undocumented persons, the percentage of Canada’s population born abroad subsequently rises, albeit only slightly to 31 percent. Using the minister’s upper limit estimate, the percentage born in a country rises a bit further, up to 31.6 percent”

      This was never part of any Liberal platform or proposal, and yet it has had a more profound effect on Canada than anything else the Liberals did. Something to think about when people go on about judging parties by their plans and promises.

      Unplanned and under resourced growth is a bad idea for everyone no matter what you are told.

      I’m all for immigration because we need to increase our tax base. 

      But I feel the country has focused too much on people to fill low wage jobs  instead of qualified individuals to fill trades and high education professions. 

      Let’s be real most low wage Jobs don’t provide much tax revenue (the main reason we are pushing immigration) 1 doctor would give the same tax revenue as 10+ low wage earners. (Some of those low wage earners may not even make enough to put them outside of the exemption)

      There’s a good comment toward the end of the article about the Trudeau government ramped up immigration levels thinking only about the benefits and not about any of the costs. That’s a common feature of this wretched government; a complete unwillingness to even admit that all policy decisions come with both benefits and costs, never mind openly discussing the cost/benefit analysis and/or the trade offs involved in making the decisions that they do. They always blow their own horns about the benefits and proclaim themselves morally just, and that anyone who attempts to criticize them is just totally wrong and dangerous and misinformed.

      This omnipresent holier-than-thou attitude has now finally given rise to an opposition leader who has largely dispensed with making detailed critiques of government policies because they fall on deaf ears, instead choosing to go for the personal and the emotional.

      We’ll be years restoring some modicum of civility to our political discourse, if we even can.

      Taking people from low carbon areas and dumping them into a housing crisis and hour long commutes, as we spend billions on supposedly fighting climate change.

      We need deportations once these people’s visas expire. That’s the ugly honest truth of a possible solution, but the country isn’t ready for conversation.

      “Death to Canada” is a literal call for violence, and is very much illegal in this country.

      They should all be charged with treason

      —-

      High treason

      46 (1) Every one commits high treason who, in Canada,

      (a) kills or attempts to kill Her Majesty, or does her any bodily harm tending to death or destruction, maims or wounds her, or imprisons or restrains her;

      (b) levies war against Canada or does any act preparatory thereto; or

      (c) assists an enemy at war with Canada, or any armed forces against whom Canadian Forces are engaged in hostilities, whether or not a state of war exists between Canada and the country whose forces they are.

      Marginal note:Treason

      (2) Every one commits treason who, in Canada,

      (a) uses force or violence for the purpose of overthrowing the government of Canada or a province;

      (b) without lawful authority, communicates or makes available to an agent of a state other than Canada, military or scientific information or any sketch, plan, model, article, note or document of a military or scientific character that he knows or ought to know may be used by that state for a purpose prejudicial to the safety or defence of Canada;

      There are people out there, making campaign contribution who are members of political parties who are asking for this.

      The average voter might not be asking for this, but the politically active business owners, and university board members are. They are the parties. Join a political party, attend meetings, attend conventions. The rot in our politics is not just in the legislatures and democratic systems require participation beyond just voting.

      Our government: let’s import millions of people from poorer countries. That will solve the problem in Canada

      The problem: How to keep corporations and the ultra wealthy lobbyists happy

      Our problem: We have a housing crisis, stagnant wages, falling birth rate, warming climate ect ect ….

      They don’t work for us. None of them do.

      I will never forget the liberals USED valuable individuals from less fortunate counties to mask a recession.

      Modern slavery is alive and well in Canada.
