At least they’re creating jobs, opening up store fronts. There is something we can learn from everyone. Rather have another human being like me create opportunities than the government controlling everything

I know it's not on most people's radar, but what is a huge problem that no one talks enough about is how when so many temporary foreign workers come here, they make money in Canadian dollars and then send that money out of our economy to their home Country. So our Canadian dollars are sold, and isn't spent in our Economy. When you go somewhere and you don't see any born in Canada employees you really need to make a choice to not support that business.
Canadian wages should go to Canadians and spent in our economy. I hope we wise up and we start to really limit how many people we bring into the Country. We're literally bringing in 400K+ people that's about the size of Halifax, EVERY year. We just cannot support this rapid growth. Especially when the people coming in have no intention of integrating and do not share our values.
Focuses on economic impact of temporary foreign workers, money leaving the economy, and wages for Canadians, with underlying concern about integration and values.

If they didn't bring their culture of being rude, obnoxious and disregard Canadian laws and etiquette maybe it wouldn't be so bad, but they also mass imported them to give companies cheap labor so they've taken a tonne of opportunity from Canadians, reduced the quality of our education system making domestic Canadians unlikely to get any employment and the students also exploit the system to work. They all need a place to live and many are exploiting the government for benefits on top of driving up housing prices because of the scarcity they're actively causing.
Comprehensive critique linking immigration to job displacement, wage suppression, housing costs, and education system degradation.

TFW completely destroyed the Canadian job market. Canadian companies would rather use the program than hire local Canadian workers or young workers who are looking for there first job opportunity and gain experience.
I respect immigrants who come to Canada, contribute to the community and economy and are willing to leave their culture in the past and adapt to our culture and language. I don’t respect immigrants who refuse to adapt to our language and culture. You’re in Canada, it’s either English and French, stop speaking Punjabi everywhere because we all can’t stand it, especially in businesses.
Canada has a major immigration problem at this point. It’s not racist when it’s true. The truth is on film and everyone sees it.
Canadians deserve better than what is happening right now. All we want is opportunities and opportunities to buy homes and have families. But the Canadian government would rather bend over to the Punjabi’s.
What a disgrace!!
Primarily critiques job market impacts and economic competition, combined with cultural assimilation demands and identity-based framing about Canadian belonging.

Yet we send billions to Ukraine while Canadian's can't afford food, shelter let alone pay bills. Canadians get punished for hard work and any additional income is subjected more taxes. Sad reality.
