Canada threw open its doors to visitors after the pandemic. Now, many don’t want to leave

A special program Canada brought in last year to make it easier for tourists, business travellers and those with relatives in this country to visit has led to some unexpected consequences.

Newly obtained documents show that a striking percentage of people who took advantage of the expedited visitor visas that the program offered have now applied to stay here — as asylum seekers.

It’s a situation, some say, that reflects among other things the pent-up demand for asylum created during the pandemic, when the border was closed.

Just another loophole created by the Trudeau government to flood the country.

The Liberal’s immigration policies have accomplished the opposite of what was intended

… But many are simply seeking to stay here while their claim works its way through a system that is already so overwhelmed some claimants are living in homeless shelters or on the street and it can take several years before the Immigration and Refugee Board reaches a final decision on an application.

The worst thing about all this? The Liberals’ immigration policies have accomplished the very opposite of what they intended: They have undermined support for immigration.


I prefer to think of it as Canadians waking up to the Big Lie of immigration policy in Canada.

Immigration policy was never designed to benefit Canadians.

It was designed to benefit the corporate class and the political class at our expense.

We will continue to pay dearly for sleepwalking through our nations destruction and must remain on guard against those who lie about mass immigration’s alleged benefits.

Peter Menzies: Increasing Numbers of Canadians No Longer Recognize Their Country

Sure, some of this is natural.

As people age, they tend to worry that the values they lived by are no longer being upheld. Civilization, as the saying goes, is thousands of years old but never more than one generation deep—and that becomes more of a concern as people enter the contemplative phase of their lives.

Trudeau has turned Toronto into a 3rd World shithole.

Spike in international student asylum claims an abuse of study permits, experts warn

Asylum claims by international students have risen more than 1,500 per cent in the past five years, figures obtained by The Globe and Mail show, as experts warn that the study-permit system is being exploited as a way to enter and remain in Canada.

The sharp increase is particularly acute at colleges, where claims at some schools have climbed in excess of 4,000 per cent since 2018. Students at major universities, however, tend to lodge fewer claims than at colleges, the figures show.

It’s an abuse of Canadians by the Liberal government.

Immigration: ‘Some Canadians are beginning to question the multiculturalist model’

A 35% reduction in the number of permits granted to foreign students, imposition of an entry visa for Mexican travelers, questioning of the “massive” regularization of hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants… Under pressure from a public increasingly wary of migratory flows, the Canadian government has, since the beginning of the year, stepped up measures designed to show that it does not intend to be “overwhelmed.” These measures are at odds with the image of a country traditionally open to immigration (mainly economic, i.e. selective) and to a welcoming policy that Liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau considers necessary “to ensure the country’s long-term growth.” Some 985,000 new permanent immigrants are expected by 2025.

Sociologist and professor in the Faculty of Education at the University of Ottawa, Christian Bergeron, works on models for integrating minorities into society and has observed changes in public opinion regarding migration. Here, he explains how the nature of the immigration debate has changed in Canada, to the point of challenging one of the country’s founding principles: multiculturalism.

The debate about Multiculturalism is over. It is settled, it sucks.

US migrant crisis shifts from Texas to California border

On a blustery morning last month, volunteer Adriana Jasso raised the flaps to a tent propped up against the massive steel bars of the fence that straddles this stretch of the US-Mexico border. On her side, plastic tables were piled with apples, packets of hot chocolate, mylar blankets and stacks of ponchos – supplies waiting for hungry and tired migrants who had travelled for weeks, or even months, to reach California.

On the other side, visible through the gaps in the towering barrier, a group of more than 100 people – from countries including Ecuador, Colombia, China and Rwanda – huddled together, waiting to be let through on to US soil. This border point south of San Diego is now one of the busiest along the entire US-Mexico frontier, which stretches around 1,950 miles (3,140km) from here to eastern Texas and the Gulf of Mexico.

Canada’s immigration dilemma — not enough workers or not enough homes

The federal government’s decision to bring in fewer newcomers in the next few years due to the housing crunch could create labour shortages and inflationary pressures on some areas of the economy if the right balance isn’t maintained, says an analysis by Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce.

‘GETTING WORSE’: Trudeau Liberals blamed for latest line of desperate workers in Toronto

Videos of massive lineups for job fairs and open calls in the GTA are commonplace on social media.

It’s a testament to just how competitive and exhausting the job market has become in recent years.

Walmart Canada says robots are coming to two Ontario warehouses

In a Calgary warehouse almost as big as eight football fields, an army of robots whir about, carrying massive quantities of merchandise bound for Walmart Canada customers.

Some of the robots zip around the hulking facility transporting pallets of merchandise fresh off delivery trucks. Another resembling a giant arm moves the pallets onto conveyor belts. A third group are labellers.

Together, they shave down the time it takes to get products from trailers into the facility by 90 per cent — and their overlord, Walmart Canada, hopes this is just the start. It plans to bring robots to Mississauga and Cornwall, Ont., distribution centres over the next five years.

Will they be forced to have diverse robots? Like a Trannybot?
