Comment on Top post in the conservative subreddit: Being unable to work at a "woke" company
PhlubbaDubba@lemm.ee 1 week agoIIRC Canada’s actually touching similar demographic diversity to the US, the difference is more in what demographics specifically since Canada tended to draw from the corners of the British Empire specifically while the US would draw folks from all the rest of the world as well.

Canada had massive immigration from India, and we just started trying to put a lid on that because we realized that it was a bad idea to let in so many people at once. The immigration targets the government has set are bonkers.

yeah I think it’s pretty obvious
The only ones to concern troll about their targets to that extent and complain about everything that doesn’t align with their political views being “too political” are conservatives. You aren’t concerned about the wellbeing of anyone, you want to exterminate the “others” and think you’re smart by using the most basic manipulation tactic of conservatives – feigning concern for the welfare of the people you want to get rid of.

Aging boomers are costing the healthcare system a lot of money. So there’s a need to increase tax revenue to cover the cost. When an immigrant comes to the country they immediately start working and therefore immediately starts paying taxes.
A lot of it is down to how lopsided the demographics are with an overly high percentage of retired population.
In economics you can’t solve one problem without creating others. But the problems solved are bigger than the problems created. And housing problems are a temporary problem. As boomers start dying off, the situation will correct itself, housing will be freed up and healthcare costs will decrease.

You really think it’s going to play out like that, it really isn’t. 90% of homeowners in Canada are wealthy: statscan Toronto has the highest unemployment rate in Canada: statscan. Do you live where these international students live and are trying to claim asylum? I’ve worked with them, talked with them, and are with them. And they have the same thing every ethnic background does when they come here, keep their customs and fuck assimilation. And I’m not talking about food or religion., I’m talking about mannerisms. I come from immigrants, but my family assimilated like you are supposed to, got nowhere near the treatment these people get, but don’t go barking up a tree and go on a hunger strike in a country they are not even a citizen in.
