Thank you for this information.

It's absolutely insane how much people are being admitted when the infrastructure can barely support them all. In some cities, Hospitals have been so overcrowded, patients are nearly forced to die waiting in the hallways.

Yeah, it's quite sad.

You would think a modern immigration system would be based on modeling relevant variables, e.g. country of origin, employment record, industry, language fluency, age, sex, criminality, probability of welfare dependency, etc. Even requiring English or French fluency would be a major improvement, but nope gotta create make work ESL programs. Since not having immigration isn't even on the table, there's no reason to not select the best and most assimilable.

Even when people are sponsored, sponsors are only required to provide for a few years which again is not sustainable or responsible.

About the only good news is that the immigrants tend to just move to a few places, e.g. Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, etc. Some just desserts for people that like to bitch about living wages, cost of housing, and other socioeconomic problems that are exacerbated by Canada's excessive immigration numbers.

Bill C6 also had some other terrible changes such as removing languages requirements for under 18 and over 55. The Canadian government seems quite determined to manufacture problems, likely so they can expand gov't programs and taxes to address them.

Why do you oppose immigration? The government and private sector are in lock step telling the public for decades that immigrants will just become new Americans. Do you reject the liberal egalitarian claims? Do you reject the assimilation narrative? If so how can you be so sure the government it wrong about immigrants but right about experimental gene therapies?

Immigration doesn't have an end goal. This is problematic because unlimited resources and land do not exist, yet it's being given away to outsiders at an infinite rate. Even in the liberal fantasy event that says immigrants can be assimilated, infrastructure is more likely to collapse if we continue to transfer the entire's world population into highly dense and populated areas. Ironically, I did make a thread that did cover this idea. What happens if there's food shortages? The answer I got was millions of people are going to kill each other, fighting over the last berries they can find in a forest.

I don't see how vaccines put a stress on the native population. Quite the opposite. Having less sick people in Hospitals is meant to free up resources since Doctors no longer have to prioritize treating Covid patients vs someone who broke their leg or has a seizure.

Edit: Man oh man, I just remembered this oldddddddddddddddddddd video that put the entire immigration fiasco into perspective by using gumballs.

Funny thing is, when I first saw it (back in 2012?) I didn't think much of it. But now, it's more true than ever.
