- DesaiAshu 8mo agoWelcome to the world by population that speaks English
- zalthor 8mo agoThat’s about 30k people? So a 0.075% increase in your population with people from India (Not accounting for any departures back to India)
- breitling 8mo agoThat's 30%, not 30K
- triceratops 8mo ago30% of 100k = 30k.
- breitling 8mo agoThat 100K is just in 3 months. We are growing rapidly.
- triceratops 8mo ago> We are growing rapidly I remember reading recently that Canada's population actually decreased last year. A quick Google confirms it: https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/daily-quotidien/251217/dq251217b-eng.htm https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/daily-quotidien/251217/dq251...
- breitling 8mo agough...I guess I have to bring out the crayons to explain this The reduction came from international students and temporary workers' permits expiring. We keep increasing permanent residents.
- triceratops 8mo agoWhatever the case may be "We are growing rapidly" is inaccurate.
- preuceian 8mo agoThe Netherlands is preventing is trying to prevent hyperscale data centers from being built because they require as much energy is a year as a small city. I can't imagine dismissing the import of a small city's worth of Indians quarterly as trivial.
- mekdoonggi 8mo agoIronically, the chart you've pointed out doesn't indicate the raw numbers, just proportions. 30% of immigrants being from India sounds perfectly reasonable. What's the problem?
- poncho_romero 8mo agoIt is worth adding here that in the years after Covid began, the raw number of immigrants reached record highs, in some years more than doubling the previous (steady) intake rate. https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/pub/71-607-x/71-607-x2025008-eng.htm https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/pub/71-607-x/71-607-x2025008...
