“Mass Immigration – Follow the money”

Politics famously make for strange bedfellows. But what’s with the federal government and the temporary foreign worker program? How are these committed progressives working hand-in-glove with big business to exploit foreigners? And why aren’t we upset?

Arguably I don’t get out much. But lately when I do travel, short distances or long, I notice that nearly everyone I deal with in hotels, restaurants, etc., and half at the supermarket checkout, are here as slave labour. How’s that woke? Or tolerable?

In Canada, Liberal reaction has been too piecemeal, too little and too late to undo the damage caused by uncontrolled population growth

“We risk becoming an island of strangers, not a nation that walks forward together.”

These are not the words of a populist firebrand or a conservative hardliner. They were spoken by Sir Keir Starmer, leader of the Britain’s Labour Party and, since July 2024, prime minister of the United Kingdom.

Carney’s aim to cut immigration marred by undercounting of temporary migrants, economists warn

Prime Minister Mark Carney’s aim to reduce immigration to “sustainable levels” will be achievable only on paper unless changes are brought in to ensure that Canada doesn’t continue to undercount the number of non-permanent residents living here, economists warn.

Mr. Carney, at his first press conference after the election, pledged to cap the total number of temporary workers and international students at less than 5 per cent of Canada’s population by the end of 2027.

For years, Canada’s top telecom providers rode a wave of high immigration, collectively adding hundreds of thousands of new mobile phone subscribers most quarters. Those days are over.

Canada’s three biggest wireless firms — BCE Inc., Rogers Communications Inc. and Telus Corp. — all cited tighter immigration rules when explaining to investors over the past two quarters why subscriber growth has slowed. The trio recorded fewer than 54,000 net new mobile subscribers in the first quarter, the lowest number in four years.

Believe nothing from corporate Canada or the Liberal gov’t on immigration.
