wonder if someone got rich off of the decisions on this one.

It looked more like a political stunt. Like she knew better than the federal government.

Scathing Bloomberg article on current immigration policy. What's the top 3 problems that Canadians are currently struggling with: affordability, housing, and access to healthcare. Current govt seems hellbent on flooding the country with more people, a significant portion from countries with lower living standard, making all of the problems listed above much worse for local citizens. It is hilariously bad how out of touch this govt is on this topic. Keep this up and the average Canadian isn't going to give a flying fuck about gay rights or access to abortion and you'll get characters like Trump running prime minister.

Trudeau botched immigration surge, Canada's top bank economists say

- “Frankly I’m surprised we screwed it up because we sit in such a privileged position in Canada,” Beata Caranci, chief economist at Toronto Dominion Bank, told a packed audience at an Economic Club of Canada event. Unlike many other countries, including the U.S., Canada is not dealing with poorly controlled flows of migrants across its land borders and has had time to think about the implications of its policies, Caranci said. “We designed our own policy, we put it in place, we implemented it, and we still screwed it up.”

- Canada accepted about 455,000 new permanent residents in the year to Oct. 1 while bringing in more than 800,000 non-permanent residents, a category that includes temporary workers, foreign students and refugees

- With a population growth rate of 3.2 per cent, it’s growing faster than any Group of Seven nation, China or India.

The only thing given out more freely than CERB is citizenship.

Hospitals are setting daily records every day across the country this week for capacity.

Guess it will be fixed by next year heheh

Honestly though if you are diagnosed with Cancer at this point, pray you can afford to go to the states because even minor cases that should be treatable and survivable are becoming death sentences due to the delay in treatement.

The issues the matter to Canadians, the liberals are shitting the bed as hard as humanly possible. No ones gonna give a shit about the other issues when the election rolls around.

Another goodie:

Immigration is making Canada's housing more expensive. The government was warned 2 years ago https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/irc...uments%20show.

Documents obtained by The Canadian Press through an access-to-information request show Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada analyzed the potential effects immigration would have on the economy, housing and services, as it prepared its immigration targets for 2023-2025.

The deputy minister, among others, was warned in 2022 that housing construction had not kept up with the pace of population growth.

"In Canada, population growth has exceeded the growth in available housing units," one slide deck reads.

"As the federal authority charged with managing immigration, IRCC policy-makers must understand the misalignment between population growth and housing supply, and how permanent and temporary immigration shapes population growth."

The federal government ultimately decided to increase the number of permanent residents Canada welcomes each year to 500,000 in 2025, a decision that drew considerable attention and scrutiny. That means that in 2025, Canada will welcome nearly twice as many permanent residents as it did in 2015.

I'm certainly not anti immigration, and even more for immigration when it is bringing in people like refugees that NEED to come to the country to be afforded basic necessities, but when we don't have basic necessities for those that are here, it seems like bringing people in is really putting the cart before the horse.
As I've said before, I don't believe immigrants are being brought in to better the country, or better the lives of immigrants. It's based on cheap labour for the corporate overlords.
If that wasn't the case we probably wouldn't have people who are educated healthcare workers who are desperately needed working Tim hortons jobs because they are ineligible due to their education and have no clear path to proving their capabilities.

you know who's going to get hit the worse, Quebec.
They need bi lingual, and they don't get enough nurses who can speak French.

So the work around now is hiring someone "temp", which is already an issue for doctors. People speak up about "oh she doesn't speak French"; then the other side of argument comes to play where "so are you discriminating her just because she can't speak french."

you'll start to see a lot of contract workers taking over jobs just to get past the French qulification.

Welfare told an rs member to sent his dad to the states for cancer then covid hit and the boarder closed. Image getting treatment for cancer in the US and being stuck with no one being able to visit you.

Yea, that’s way worse than dieing due to a system that can’t even provide you with a diagnosis……

I can't help but wonder sometimes if the approach literally is "Fuck the people alive right now for the next 10 years, eventually all these people flooding in will be established and paying taxes to the gov, but while that sorts out everyone currently alive gets fucked in some kind of way... oh well! On ward and upward!"

Another goodie: Thousands of international students are coming into our country to "study" but never attend classes and then compete with locals over lower-end jobs, housing, and basic goods & services. And this has probably been going on for years lol

Immigration Minister urged to crack down on international student ‘no shows’ at colleges https://www.theglobeandmail.com/poli...al-student-no/

Immigration experts are calling on the government to crack down on the abuse of study permits for international students, including those gaining admission to Canada but who do not attend college or university once they get here.

International student numbers have increased rapidly from 637,855 in 2019 to 807,260 in 2022

An analysis by Statistics Canada in November found that around 19 per cent of international students with study permits did not have a record of studying at college or university here.

The IRCC’s Student Integrity Analysis Report, dated November, 2021, found “no shows” to make up as much as 90 per cent of students at some private colleges. “No shows” are students with letters of acceptance, who should be enrolled but either did not confirm the acceptance, never attended class or suddenly stopped attending.

The Academy of Learning College in Toronto had a 95 per cent “overall potential student non compliance rate” among students, the report said. Ninety per cent of students were recorded as “no shows.”

The 2021 Student Integrity Analysis Report, obtained by immigration lawyer Richard Kurland through an access to information request, found that Flair College of Management and Technology in Vaughan, Ont., had a “no show” of 75 per cent of students.

Here’s more to that, liberal housing minister basically admitting they were allowing “students” to come to Canada to attend sham colleges


And Turd is under investigation for yet ANOTHER ethics investigation

At least it’s not some conservative though! :lol

Don't worry, if a Conservative gets in there will be a tonne of ethics investigations against them too.

Definately. I’m sure the people who start these sham colleges are fucking rolling in cash now.

Like.. is it that hard for the govt. to audit Sham College at 666 Yong street that opened 8 months ago is now having 400 international students apply for their visas there?

While the rest of us are getting audited over the most frivolous, stupid shit lol.. of course not because the govt. gets that visa fee.

I walk by 1 in downtown every time I go to work... it's right on Pender and it's called "City University of Seattle Vancouver"
