Canada cannot stop immigration. It’s just fact. The main issue in Canada is not permanent migration, it’s the amount of temporary migrants. No other country has had such a huge influx of temporary migrants within an extremely short period of time. This has naturally caused a huge breakdown in...

Yet, from your statements, I’m guessing those IT personnel are all abroad. The issue is that total GDP and GDP growth is an absolutely meaningless figure if it doesn’t improve the living standards of the common folk in the country. India excels at GDP growth but the primary reason for that being...

The truth lies in the statistics. The people who have the means to leave India, want to get the hell out of there as soon as possible. This is true for all levels of social classes. The poor in India go to the gulf and the middle class in India want to go to the west. I’ve seen people who are...

I believe that Canada has the capacity to accommodate that many permanent residents. Believe it or not, Canada actually builds the most homes per capita in the G7. What Canada cannot accommodate is this huge influx of temporary migrants. If you slash the number of students and temporary migrants...

If you look at the latest iteration of the leger polls on immigration : https://leger360.com/surveys/legers-north-american-tracker-november-15-2022/ Plus, the recent disproportional coverage media outlets and news sites are suddenly offering to discussions about immigration. This was never the...

Ontario could do whatever it wants but if the federal government caps student visas issued to the students from public or private colleges in Ontario, that would automatically put a stop to the huge influx of kids from India. A college cannot do anything if IRCC rejects a student visa. The...

Colleges and universities are not the responsibility of the Federal Government. They’re under the provincial government. What the Federal government controls is the issuance of visas and work permits. IRCC must either restrict the post graduate work permits to only those students attending...

Again, from my experience living in Canada, despite all the stories you hear about immigrant doctors and nurses driving cabs, they form a sizeable portion of the healthcare workforce in Canada. My own family doctor is an immigrant and Filipino nurses make up a sizeable portion of the nursing...

The liberals are tanking in polls because of housing. A lot of people in Canada are genuinely pissed at them for actively making the housing crisis worse by boosting the population of temporary workers/students. Inaction is one thing but actively trying to make the situation worse is another...

IRCC controls visas so I guess they could cap the amount of students visas issued or limit the issuance of student visas to only public institutions. Currently, there’s no cap on the amount of student visas issued, which is bonkers. That’s the reason why there’s a huge temporary population in...

He makes a very solid point though. There’s been an explosion of fake students from Punjab, India. A lot of them have no intention of gaining a solid education, which should be the primary purpose of studying abroad. Their main intention is to just get into Canada by whatever way possible...

Canada doesn’t really need other occupations. That’s the harsh reality. The country doesn’t need marketing specialists, artists, HR managers, food supervisors, fast food workers etc. right now. It needs healthcare workers, construction workers, tech workers etc. so it makes sense that for all...

There are very specific reasons why Canada wants a younger workforce. Young people generally have fewer health problems and will put lower strain on the healthcare system. They also have the greatest potential to start new families. In addition to all of that, they are net contributors to the...

Isn’t that what the country actually needs? Bringing in immigrants who have no scope to establish successful careers in Canada is counterproductive. It doesn’t help the immigrants coming in and neither does it help Canada. That was the biggest flaw of the express entry system. Canada needs...

The problems new immigrants face in Canada during their initial years is not anything new. It’s been going on for decades. What a lot of new immigrants expect is that Canada is sort of a get rich quick scheme where there are high paying jobs waiting for them once they land. That’s not the...

This has always been the case for new immigrants. However, the immigrants who struggled and and slogged their asses off have always made it big in Canada. The ones who were not willing to make the struggle and got overwhelmed, became bitter and went back. I can only say this to new immigrants...

The most Canadian thing to do is to complain about how awful things are in Canada. Every immigrant will do the same thing after living over here for a few years. In reality, there’s no such thing as a perfect country. Every country has its own strengths and weaknesses. It’s up to the individual...

This is how it should have been from the start. Addressing actual labour shortages in critical sectors instead of inviting people who have worked in occupations, where Canada has limited to no jobs. The country seriously needs more healthcare and construction workers to address the healthcare...

While that may enable a person to obtain work authorisation in the US quickly, it has several restrictions and it isn’t even as good as what Australian citizens have in terms of E3. There’s this misconception that the TN visa is a great privilege when it really isn’t. Spouses of E3 visa holders...

You're from Russia? Damn. You're in a rough spot. Since you're Russian and if your goal is to settle in the United States permanently, why are you moving to Canada then? To be very honest with you, you are probably wasting a lot of your time. The TN visa is not an immigrant visa and most...
