    Both sentences in this paragraph are only partly true. I would respectfully submit that most people are OK with helping folks settle,initially,but only in a very short term. According to many articles in left/liberal media,most Canadians realize that our immigration system is like a screen door on a submarine needing a complete overhaul and are frustrated that nothing is being done to address the issue while the system continues to bleed money unabated.

    Being ok (or fine) helping folks get settled is a far cry from the narrative that refugees are a financial drain on our resources. Also you can be frustrated that nothing is being done to address perceived issues in the immigration system. What you can't do is complain that refugees are getting more than you when that is not true or condemn them for being freeloaders when they have not been given an opportunity to contribute.

    However, I disagree that the immigration isn't bleeding money or is a screen door on a sub. We have an immigration system to bring in immigrants and refugees and we pay taxes to maintain that program. The system is designed to bring in immigrants and refugees and get them settled and that is what is doing. The immigration system also tries to screen out the people we don't want. It has more successes than failures. I am not sure a complete overhaul is necessary, We can talk about the changes necessary to update the system if you want but we shouldn't be pointing to the people in the system as the problem.

    For decades immigrants/refugees have been getting faced with the freeloader tag not matter who they were. Italian, Irish, Jewish, Ukraine, etc who weren't deemed as "one of us" have been getting demonized when they had not done anything wrong for a variety of reasons and it really needs to stop.

    The fact that the major cities in this country are working multicultural entities suggests that I am indeed a portion of the majority of this country.

    Now Now... don't be like FMC that can't even post a link and makes things up so much it is pathetic... so .... let's see...
    https://globalnews.ca/news/5397306/c...igration-poll/
    Majority of Canadians think immigration should be limited: poll

    https://www.ipsos.com/en-ca/news-pol...tion-on-canada
    For example, a majority (55%) agree (30% strongly/25% somewhat) that they would like to see tighter border controls that allow fewer immigrants into Canada. A similar proportion (54%) agrees (28% strongly/26% somewhat) that Canada is too welcoming to immigrants.

    ... and one of the most outspoken Libs....
    https://o.canada.com/news/david-suzu...aper-interview
    David Suzuki says Canada is 'full' and calls country's immigration policy 'crazy



    ... and that was before the LIbEralS went full idiot and we ended up with ober 50% more immigrants and 50,000 illegal immigrants....
    https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/the-n...rder-1.5169249

    and even those that are supposed to leave aren't
    https://www.thepostmillennial.com/ov...ing-in-canada/
    Over 50,000 immigrants, many who illegally entered Canada through the border, were ordered deported but remain in the country,.....
    now a backlog of 64,929 cases relating to illegal immigration





    So not a majority but a big bunch so maybe we will call it stretching it a bit though, but NP.... I wish they would post the exact question, it is so easy to lead a poll through wording and limiting the options.


    Canada's LIbEral immigration policy is based around two things and f*****ing existing Canadians and LIbEral votes..... look a the money being dumped to get the useless UN seat... power, bragging points, pride, prestige .... covering lies, incompetence, arrogance and so much disdain and hatred we now have WExit party growing and a PM that is such a Quebec elitist he didn't show up for many important Canada150 celebrations and when he did he even decided to not list Alberta... his continued actions throw out that "accidentally forgot" sh** long ago!
