Elect provincial leadership that is willing to help advance our country forward.

Elect federal leadership that restricts immigration to a reasonable level

[–] Grant_M@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

These are reasonable levels, so NO.

Over a million immigrants a year (bundling together actual immigration, international students, etc because they all take services, need housing and increase our carbon output) is reasonable?

Lol, no wonder this country is fucked

The country isn't fucked. You dislike immigrants. It's a YOU problem.

I have no issue with immgrants that we actually need, the problem is that we don't actually need the vast majority of them. We need people like doctors and nurses, not unskilled labour like Tim Hortons workers

@kyr7x @Grant_M no you really don’t understand demographics.
Canada needs a wide spectrum of immigrants. The current population is far too old and all sorts of jobs need to be filled.

[–] kyr7x@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

Have you missed thag we're in a crisis of producing too much carbon? The entire world needs less people, not just Canada.

Sometimes it's not all about you. Many immigrants are escaping a hostile situation in their home country. Every human being deserves a chance at a better life. YOU say Canada is a shit country. Most immigrants coming to Canada see this place as safe and amazing. So do I.
