roughly 1.5% increase in population every year
It's over for Canada
Canada is a truly horrible country, I am disgusted
but speaking in relative terms I would say it ranks in the top 3 (with Switzerland and US)
All parties will continue the high level of immigration. Once Libs or Cons increase the level of immigration, the other party will never decrease it. They would be called anti immigration if they did. If Polivere (sp) wins the next election, zero chance he decreases immigration.
There is a fringe party that wants to reduce it to 150k a year, but with Canada’s election system, that is like throwing away your vote.
They voted for it. Over and over again even if they complain about it in between elections.
You need to build tons of housing.
The pension system will go bust unless we bring in millions of immigrants. You can thank boomers and their fa/t pensions, especially government workers.
This is not happening. There are now fewer construction workers than a few decades ago. Meanwhile a million new people are entering a country of 38m every two years. The most incredible part is "experts" claiming that immigration is not contributing to very high real estate prices in Canadian cities.
In almost every developed country, the majority of the population believes that there is too much immigration. Yet no mainstream politician will do anything consequential. Read Moldbug.
The majority of canadians are against mass immigration yet Trudeau doesnt care. That's because he doesn't give a cheet about what people want.
In a poll of 1,537 Canadians conducted by Leger and the Association of Canadian Studies, three out of four said they were somewhat or very concerned about the affect the new plan would have on housing and social services. Almost half, 49%, said the targets were too high, while 31% said that they were the right number.

It's almost as if voting is a function of many different political leanings.

global warming will make it more hospipipotableWhen I say "low skill", I know a lot of degrees, but a lot of those are not useful degrees and they don't have the skills necessary for advanced economy.
Wow. Wiseman in charge of this. How surprising. A J being a J and scr3wing over yt nations
I have no clue what is going on or why they are doing this. The country is already starting to become a mess.Because fertility rates are like 1.5 and trending off a cliff.
Canada is done. Immigration isn’t going to save it.Low skill immigrants become a drain on the system, won't help. Half of immigrants already not productive, I can't imagine what adding another 250K unproductive imm a year is going to do to help...
Completely false. Immigrants constantly working underpaid jobs in positions they are overqualified for. Their unemployment numbers are minuscule, especially a few years after landing. Canada essentially exploits immigrants for cheap labor.

These are the sample people who, when asked what % of the pop is immigrant, J, non-native, etc., overestimate these proportions (that should add to 1) by an order of magnitude. Also, modern immigration numbers are peanuts compared to the early 20th century (relative to populations).

add up* to 1 if mutually exclusive categories, obviously. Still, people would answer that there are 30% Js, 50% moosleems and 40% east-asians, or some nonsensical thing like that.

Half of the immigrants in the early 20th century moved to the middle of nowhere, built their own home and cultivated the land.

Because it's speaking over each other's heads. I imagine most people thinking migration is too high include all people of migration heritages whereas official data would include someone born in CA, even to immigrant parents, as native. Making comparison to early 20th is also misleading because of the scale involved. There were only 5 million Canadians in 1900 and much of the migration was from the same ancestral origins as existing Canadians.
Immigrants in CAnada think there are too many indians and chinese coming in. And yet he continues to do it because he doesn't want to deal with the problems and just wants votes. Trudeau is one of the worst politicians out there. But canadians arent r-wing people so they will continue to vote for him until there is a viable alternative. And you are fooling yourself if you think pollievre is going to win.

Western countries need more service and trades people, low skill healthcare workers, k-12 teachers, and truckers. Last thing we need is more STEM immigrants.
If you want to understand who the power brokers are behind mass immigration, just look at scotiabank ads during hockey coverage. The first ad: "hockey is ra/cist, se/xist, etc.". The second ad is about an indian immigrant who just arrived in Canada and opens up a bank account with Scotia. That's basically all you need to know. The big banks and telecom firms are absolutely milking the system and they want that population growth to boost profits. Big pension funds are heavily invested in big banks, Bell Canada, Rogers, etc. to pay for fat boomer pensions. The whole thing is a self-reinforcing mess mainly driven by the need to pay boomers ridiculous pensions. There you have it.
