Did anyone ask Albertans about the impact of mass immigration from incompatible cultures on their economic and social well being?

Alberta immigrants say they’re seeing an uptick in anger, rise of racist narratives

Alberta resident Shamaila Akram says she can handle the increase in racial slurs and derogatory comments being thrown at her, but she worries about her newcomer and immigrant clients.

As debates unfold over Canada’s immigration system, those who provide help to newcomers in Alberta say there has been an uptick of hostility toward immigrants.

“I hear from people in my own communities — women specifically who wear hijabs — many bad things and we realize there is a need to educate people,” said Akram, with Calgary’s Centre for Newcomers.

Canada is following this exact path …

Federal government to stop funding hotel rooms for asylum seekers, IRCC says

Asylum seekers staying in federally-funded hotels will soon have to check out as Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) says that funding will end in September.

A spokesperson for IRCC told CBC News via email that as of Thursday, the federal government was housing 485 asylum seekers in five hotels in Ontario and Quebec, noting it has spent approximately $1.1 billion on temporary hotel housing for asylum seekers since 2020.

“This measure was never meant to be permanent, and IRCC is funded to continue hotel operations only until September 30, 2025,” the email said.

In Doug Ford’s World This Is The Perfect Time To Grant Work Permits To 100K So-Called Asylum Seekers

Ontario mortgage delinquencies on the rise and could climb higher still, experts warn

Mortgage delinquencies appear to be on the rise in both Ontario and the Greater Toronto Area and the numbers could get worse as Canada navigates choppy economic waters, experts say.

According to data prepared for the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) by Equifax Canada, mortgage delinquencies rose to 0.22 per cent in Ontario for the first quarter of this year. That’s up from 0.15 per cent in the first quarter of 2024 and 0.09 per cent in the first quarter of 2023.

In Toronto, the mortgage delinquency rate hit 0.23 per cent for the first quarter of 2025. That compares to 0.14 per cent for the first quarter of 2024 and 0.08 per cent for the first quarter of 2023.

The same cabal that jacked immigration rates to unprecedented levels will always find a way to destroy your economic and social well being.

They want you poor and fearful, one step away from being homeless and willing to work for the cheapest wage possible.

Ford, Carney and his pal Wiseman of Century Initiative infamy are working hard to ensure the Corporate class has ready access to slaves.

The right answer is mass deportation.

Update: Ford claims asylum seekers wait 2 years for work permits. Feds say it’s actually 45 days

The federal government is pushing back against Ontario Premier Doug Ford’s claim it takes two years for an asylum seeker to be given the right to work in Canada, saying the average processing time is actually less than two months.

Ford made the claim on Wednesday afternoon at the end of a three-day leaders’ summit in Huntsville, Ont., where the country’s premiers agreed to look at ways to use their constitutional powers to hand out work permits.

PINDER: Ottawa bows to Quebec — again

Choose your descriptor — stupidity, hypocrisy, manipulation, or something else — there’s no shortage of words to describe the latest House of Commons legislation that excludes the national dairy cartel from future free trade agreements. A total of 262 MPs voted in favour of the bill, including Pierre Poilievre and 56 members of his Conservative party.

Not quite the unanimous vote for the Canada Health Act back in the 1960s, but with far more urgent short-term consequences.

On a July morning, Dan and Theresa Mosier put on their sunglasses and park as usual in their chairs on the porch, waving at passersby driving into the village of Marysville, Ont., or neighbours on foot, waiting for grandkids to drop in. This is their retirement idyll.

Dan had been the proprietor of the Oco gas station next to their house for 35 years, but he boarded it up three years ago. In bygone days, it’d be open for business, cars pulling up to the pumps, tourists unfamiliar with Wolfe Island walking into the shop to ask for directions.

All six Canadian venues cancel Christian musician Sean Feucht’s shows

U.S. Christian musician Sean Feucht is continuing his Canadian tour in spite of having to find new venues for all six shows.

The City of Vaughan, Ont., where Feucht was to have finished the first leg of the Let Us Worship: Revive in 25 tour on Sunday afternoon at the Dufferin District Park, confirmed to National Post that it had cancelled the special event permit “on the basis of health and safety as well as community standards and well-being.”

Trump’s steel tariffs against Canada have been working just how he wants

For the hundreds of Canadian steelworkers who lost their jobs this year amid President Donald Trump’s trade war, talk of reaching a trade deal between Canada and the U.S. is coming too little, too late.

For Trump, the effects — driving down imports, boosting the U.S. steel industry and winning concessions from Canada — seem to be getting him what he wants.

Canada, we’ve already got Trump’s best trade deal

The frenzied tariff announcements of recent weeks risk obscuring a simple fact: most Canadian exports face no tariffs when entering the United States.

Goods that are compliant with the rules of origin of the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement have been exempted from tariffs imposed in February based on White House claims about fentanyl coming from Canada, and what the U.S. calls “reciprocal” tariffs, which are poised to come into effect on Aug. 1. No such exemption has been granted to other countries.

JAY GOLDBERG: The time to end the CBC as we know it has come

Canada’s beleaguered national broadcaster should have been privatized long ago.

There are endless reasons why. The CBC’s budget is bloated. The organization’s accountability to taxpayers who foot the bill is virtually nil. And journalists shouldn’t have their salaries paid for by the government. Full stop.

The CBC is an extreme-left activist NGO, not a broadcaster.

Plan to accept newcomer parents and grandparents will strain health services, Alberta warns

Alberta’s immigration minister says he’s concerned about the federal government’s plan this year to accept thousands of parents and grandparents of immigrants already in Canada.

Joseph Schow responded Tuesday to a federal notice that Ottawa plans to take in 10,000 applications from those who have previously expressed interest in sponsoring family members.

Schow took issue with the 10,000 figure.

In a statement, Schow said provincial health-care systems, housing and social services don’t have the capacity and could be overwhelmed.

U.S. and Canada might not reach trade deal, Trump says

The United States may not reach a negotiated trade deal with Canada, U.S. President Donald Trump said on Friday, suggesting his administration could set a tariff rate unilaterally.

Trump, speaking to reporters as he left the White House for a trip to Scotland, said: “We haven’t really had a lot of luck with Canada. I think Canada could be one where there’s just a tariff, not really a negotiation.”

REMPEL GARNER: Young Canadians losing jobs to robots and ‘temporary’ foreign workers

Last week, Globe and Mail columnist Andrew Coyne penned a column about the federal government’s immigration levels entitled “A shrinking population is hardly what this country needs right now.”

His thesis would have been at least notionally credible if he had addressed two obvious problems. But there’s a third problem that no one, including Coyne, seems to be internalizing.
