Larry Maher: Weak leadership and lax immigration policy is tearing the fabric of Canadian society

Canada is undergoing a quiet but profound erosion of national cohesion, authority and cultural confidence. At every level of government, political leadership has increasingly substituted ideological appeasement for the basic responsibilities of maintaining social order, enforcing the law and protecting the integrity of Canadian citizenship.

For much of the 20th century, Canada’s immigration model was focused on bringing in the skilled workers and families who wanted to come to build a better life. Newcomers were expected to join a shared national project, not to import unresolved conflicts or establish parallel political identities. Yet over the last decade, that balance has shifted dramatically.

Unaffordable housing is pushing more young people to give up. Why that’s dangerous

When people decide they’ll never own a home, they start spending more, working less, and taking bigger financial risks.

That is the central finding of a new U.S. working paper on housing affordability, and it helps explain why today’s housing crisis is not just about housing. Once homeownership feels permanently out of reach, the authors argue that people do not simply adjust their housing plans – they change how they live. For the worse.


Dangerous is when they burn the Globe down for penning pieces that never explain how we arrived at this terrible juncture: Exploitive Mass immigration.

Canada can’t afford housing policy status quo any longer

According to a new report, it would take the average individual a jaw-dropping 44 years to save up enough money to afford a home in Toronto without financial help from family

Housing affordability is one of the most critical issues of our time. It is dividing generations, both economically and politically.

If you take a gander at new data from the Consumer Choice Center (CCC), it’s little wonder why housing is the top political issue for millions of young Canadians in poll after poll.

Toronto real estate: 100,000 jobs at risk as new home sales drop to lowest level in 45 years

Toronto-area new home sales just tanked to their worst year on record.

The situation is ”absolutely dire,” said the Building Industry and Land Development Association (BILD) in a Thursday report, noting the consequences are rippling through Ontario’s economy, which relies heavily on homebuilding for employment, future housing supply, and economic growth.


Just last year the Liberal Party created a pathway to citizenship for illegal aliens employed by law breaking construction companies.

The LPC literally rewarded these companies for hiring illegals.

How Canada’s Housing Supply Is Falling Short of Immigration Targets, by the Numbers

Immigration policy in Canada is designed to make the rich richer.

Canada’s housing shortage is no longer a future concern—it’s already here. Despite Ottawa’s decision last October to scale back immigration targets from recent highs, population growth continues to outpace the number of homes being built.

There’s a widening gap between the number of people who need housing and the number of units actually coming online, particularly in the country’s largest cities. The data suggest affordability pressures are unlikely to ease without either a sharp rise in construction or a closer alignment between immigration levels and housing capacity.

Poll shows Canadians lose faith in Ottawa’s housing plan

Canadians are increasingly pessimistic about housing, with most saying federal plans will not make homes more affordable or accessible, according to internal polling obtained by Housing Minister Gregor Robertson’s department.

Blacklock’s Reporter says the research found housing costs and shortages are now a dominant source of stress for households, with many believing home ownership is either unattainable or would require taking on crushing levels of debt.

Renters, the report said, are trapped in tight markets marked by low vacancy rates, rising prices and, in some cases, deteriorating living conditions.


Thank the Liberal Party.

How Mass Migration Destroyed Sweden’s Scandinavian Utopia

Not so long ago, Sweden used to be leftists’ favorite example of effective government: It had a generous welfare system, boasted a highly educated population, and just seemed a little classier and cleaner than most parts of the United States. True, it then had a small, homogenous population of law-abiding, productive citizens, but most admirers conveniently ignored this key detail.

Liberals Continue To Flood Canada With Migrants

Canada admitted 393,500 permanent residents last year

Canada admitted approximately 393,500 permanent residents in 2025.

That’s according to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada, which said the number is in line with its admissions targets.

It’s actually slightly lower than projections announced in the fall of 2024. At the time, Ottawa released its permanent resident targets for 2025-27 as part of its Levels Plan – the government’s roadmap to pausing short-term population growth.

Thursday’s numbers are about 2,000 people shy of the 395,000-person target set for 2025.

Indian immigrant workers protest after province returns PR files in Ontario

TORONTO — A group of immigrant workers is protesting in Ontario after provincial immigration officials returned their permanent residency applications following nearly two years of processing, leaving many without valid work permits and unable to apply through alternative pathways.

The workers say they applied under a provincial nominee stream that has since been closed.

2.1M temporary residents will have expired or expiring permits this year. But will they leave Canada?

How immigration policy is made in Canada.

Abhishek Parmar has spent more than six years making Windsor-Essex his new home. But now he is one of the 2.1 million temporary residents who may have to leave Canada this year.

“I have never even thought of leaving this place,” he said. “And now, things are coming to an end. It is not a good feeling.”

The 25-year-old arrived in Windsor-Essex in 2019 from India to pursue mechanical engineering technology at St. Clair College. After having spent more than $80,000 on tuition and living expenses, Parmar said he landed a job at an automotive company in LaSalle. He filed for permanent residence (PR) in 2024 with an Ontario immigration pathway.


Of course not, Carney and his corporate pals love the profits to be had from cheap foreign labour.

The Liberals are following the same play book as the Democrats did in the US.  Weaponized open borders.

If the US were to invade Canada I would not heed a call to arms.

I will not “defend” a ruling class that has impoverished Canadian citizens through mass immigration and the “Green” destruction of our economy.

Canadians’ immigration views are changing. How will that effect the economy?

If this past year’s generational shift in the popular Canadian attitude to immigration can be pinpointed in hindsight on the calendar, it was somewhere around the beginning of November, when Canada’s population peaked and began to decline.

To be sure, the big inflection points on immigration had already passed, including the massive spike in the pandemic, driven by a wild gamble to increase temporary residents to juice the economy, followed eventually by the realization that this was putting impossible strain on housing and services, leading to large cuts in 2024 in the dying days of the Justin Trudeau prime ministership.

Canada has a demographics problem. Is immigration still the answer?

Geoff Russ: Immigration made affordability worse. Liberals gaslighted us all

Did the Liberal government lie about the effects of mass immigration, or simply get it wrong? It is almost certainly a heady mix of both. Canadians were told not to notice what was happening right in front of them, and they have every reason to be angry about the impact it had on their lives, most notably on affordability or the sudden emergence of shady “career” colleges in strip malls.

The UK’s Patience With Mass Migration Is Gone

Is it possible that British citizens — and any politician who isn’t a member of the Labour Party — are finally getting fed up with mass migration from the Third World?

They’d have every right to be. Mass migration has been an unmitigated disaster for the U.K. The nation now leads in reported rapes per capita, thanks to an influx of men from countries where women aren’t equal or free. That was the excuse a lawyer gave for his Afghan client who raped a 15-year-old girl, after all, saying his client wasn’t “used to a society where women are free and deemed equal to men.”
