Aside from racism. I mean economically/socially, what issues does too much immigration cause?

    In Canada it’s causing a huge housing crisis. Lots of newcomers do not have the finances for what rent is here either so end up in limbo.

        It isn’t just housing it’s infrastructure in general. Governments are happy to bring in more bodies to fill jobs and pay taxes but don’t bother to plan accordingly and infrastructure takes a long time to build leading to a lagging effect.

        Hospitals, transit, housing, etc. It’s all being overwhelmed right now.

      Sounds like too many landlords, not too many immigrants.

      The irony of a nation of colonial land thieves complaining about immigration …

      Canadians should settle their debts with First Nations and honour their treaties, like good immigrants before judging others.

        To add to your point…every nation stole or was stolen from someone else at some point. I always laugh at this argument. No one’s giving anything back that they were born into and didn’t literally take themselves. Are we going to find Henry the Viiis ancestors and make them answer for his barbaric ways? No. Egyptian pharaohs who enslaved countless people and god knows what else? No.

            Other tribes? What you think they were all just nice to each other?

          You can only laugh from a place of privilege. Please educated yourself on the Indian Act and progress with existing treaties. Your comment is at odds with the reality in Canada.

            My comment just speaks the hard truth. You talking to me on the Internet is on the blood sweat and tears of someone else. Nothing is nice about anything when you go into the history of it all.

              Oh dear. I’ve just seen your comment history. I don’t think we’ll be agreeing on much. Good luck.
