The commenter doesn't seem to be against immigration, but aggressive immigration which is more like encouraging people to move somewhere without creating natural demand through creating jobs and industry. Canada is hardly producing enough jobs to justify this level of immigration, factoring in unintended immigration though marriages and children, you will be looking at grim situation if root causes of today are not solved properly.
- mrtksn 3y agoHow do they encourage immigration aggressively? Wouldn’t immigrants notice that there are no jobs at some point?
- fwungy 3y agoSet targets like Canada dies. It's all stat juking. They can write bigger budgets because they are allowed to assume $x per immigrant in the economic plans, so increasing immigration means more budget funds. The problem is that that assumption is highly dependent on who is immigrating. A highly educated healthy person will make a net contribution, others will cost the government and the governments will turn to subsidizing their employment in the private sector to reduce the cost. This becomes wage lowering pressure. Businesses that rely on mass labor get a government subsidized labor force that keeps their local labor in check.
