Immigration: Canadians should just accept unaffordable housing, a decline in their standard of living and more Hamas supporters or else we’ll call you a racist

Amid growing dissent, will Canada change its immigration plans?

Canada is set to unveil the latest targets for how many new residents it hopes to welcome in the coming years.

The annual announcement of permanent resident levels, something Immigration Minister Marc Miller must do in Parliament on or before Nov. 1, is the kind of dry fare that has traditionally drawn little attention, serving largely as a governmental formality amid high levels of public support for immigration.

… NDP immigration critic Jenny Kwan said she’s concerned about the backlash against the immigrant community.

“No good will come out of that because we have already lived through racism and discrimination in Canada’s history,” she said. “The government has to have a housing plan and an infrastructure plan for our community.”


The usual Liberal propaganda from the Star. Apparently Canadians are too dumb to realize that unaffordable housing and a rapidly declining standard of living is good for them.

Their “experts” are the usual spokesman for the corporate class who crave depressed wages and love the thought of profiteering from the shortages mass immigration brings.

Corporate Canada should have no say in immigration policy like our politicians they are insulated from the negative impact mass immgration has on society.

How do you think we ended up with thousands of Hamas supporters in our streets?

Corporate Canada doesn’t care where the bodies come from, they’re just fodder for the machine.

The usual garbage “analysis” is thrown up i.e. immigrants are necessary for economic growth.

They fail to mention that immigrants themselves age and thus are not a fix for Canada’s aging demographic or that Canada no longer attracts the “younger immigrant” that can give as much as they take over the course of their working lives.

Our immigration policy is so sick that most granted permanent resident status can’t even be bothered to take out Canadian citizenship any longer because we’re just a waystation on the route to greener pastures to them:  In 2021, of the permanent residents who had come to Canada within the last 10 years, just 45.7 per cent had become citizens. In 2001, that figure was 75.1 per cent.

The cost of family reunification with grandma and grandpa to Canada? Not mentioned.

They lie about a non-existent labour shortage and make no mention of how mass immigration depresses wages.

The impact of Automation and AI on employment? Not a factor in Star land!

But they do let you know that you’re a racist for daring to defend your own best interests.

Trudeau’s immigration policies exacerbate housing crisis

It’s not racism or xenophobia, it’s simply mathematics.

As the Trudeau government has cranked up immigration to record levels, the nation’s housing supply has failed to keep up. Hundreds of thousands of new Canadians are entering the country each year, while the number of new housing units being built is not even as high as it was in the 1970s.

America, Jr.

Canada is currently subjecting itself to a bizarre experiment in extreme population growth due to pedal-to-the-metal legal immigration.

Canada’s population rose about 1 percent per year for the first decade and a half of this century. But the Justin Trudeau era began in 2015, and growth was goosed to 1.5 percent by 2019. After a brief pandemic pause, the Trudeau government is now opening the borders extraordinarily wide.

In response, Canada’s annual population growth rate hit 3.0 percent in the third quarter of 2023, the kind of rise normally associated with Bangladesh in the 1980s. Over the summer, Canada’s population reached 40 million, up from 30 million in 1997.

Canada pulls 41 diplomats from India after diplomatic immunity stripped

All but 21 Canadian diplomats in India have been pulled out of that country, Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly said Thursday, confirming the slashing of diplomatic staff by roughly two-thirds amid ongoing tensions between the two countries.

Joly said India has formally conveyed its plan to Ottawa to strip diplomatic immunity from 41 Canadian diplomats and their 42 family members by Friday.

Canada has facilitated the safe departure of those diplomats and their families from India, she added, noting the stripping of immunity “would put their personal safety at risk.”

Majority — including two-in-five past Liberal voters — say Trudeau should step down

October 18, 2023 – Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has made clear his intention to lead the party into the next election, scheduled for 2025. Most voters, including a large portion of his own party supporters, feel he should step down before the next election.

A new study from the non-profit Angus Reid Institute finds more than half of Canadians (57%) holding the view that Trudeau should step down, while three-in-ten (28%) say he should lead the Liberals into the next election. Importantly, 2021 Liberal voters are divided, with close to equal numbers saying he should stay on (44%) or leave the party to a fresh face (41%).

Anthony Furey: The Feds’ Carbon Tax Is Facing Increased Opposition

It’s nothing new to say that conservative politicians are speaking out against Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s controversial carbon tax. They’ve been doing it for years, including waging court challenges against the pesky fee.

What’s different now though is more voices are joining the fray to critique the tax, as it feels increasingly unfair in the face of cost-of-living concerns. One of those voices includes a Liberal MP.

Documents reveal why RCMP didn’t pursue criminal probe of Justin Trudeau in SNC-Lavalin affair

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police declined to pursue a criminal investigation into Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s actions during the SNC-Lavalin affair in part because the federal police force was thwarted in a bid to get confidential cabinet materials, newly released documents show.

… “The records show the RCMP is a negligently weak lapdog that rolled over for Prime Minister Trudeau by doing a very superficial investigation into his cabinet’s obstruction of the prosecution of SNC-Lavalin, not trying to obtain key secret cabinet communication records, and burying the investigation with an almost two-year delay,” he said.

The records suggest that when the force finished its assessment in 2021, there was a request from the RCMP commissioner’s office to ensure it had “pushed as hard as possible,” and “exhausted all avenues” to get evidence.”
