Watching the government I came to believe that they are absolutely unconcerned about the the results of there actions in many regards, but also that many of them are too incompetent to actually do the job. Just look at the current Immigration minister. She is utterly clueless. I wouldn't hire the woman as nanny! Yet, she is a minister, can't answer basic questions and is totally useless.
The commenter criticizes government incompetence and specifically attacks the Immigration minister's qualifications and performance.

The "immigrants" are not the blame. THE GOVERNMENT that is bringing them in is. Get RID of the Libs who caused this problem. THEY let them in (read INVITED them) to get more votes.
