When even recent immigrants think Canada has been absorbing too many immigrants, we learn at least two things.
One is that there’s a good chance Canada’s immigration levels—at least those unleashed during the years when Justin Trudeau was prime minister—have been beyond the country’s ability to absorb. By that I mean the capacity to employ newcomers, house them, educate their children—particularly if they don’t speak either of Canada’s official languages—and provide them with health care and other public services.
Rapidly cycling between "prepare for AI to phase out your job" and "your country needs millions of new migrants to fill all the jobs"
