Everyone like to blame the feds and yet their only part of the story. The rot is your provincial government and municipal… maybe it’s not working out for you.

Indian government warned about criminals coming to canada and requested to send them back so they can be prosecuted in india but canada government refused.

This isn’t government failure — it’s corporate influence. Companies demand cheap labor. Government delivers people. Media sells morality. Citizens fight each other online.

In 2015, seniors (65+) were ~16–17% of Canada’s population. In 2024–25, they are ~19–20%. After 10 years and 3.6+ million permanent immigrants, aging was not solved. Immigration didn’t fix aging — it was used as justification, not a solution.
Uses demographic statistics to critique government immigration policy as ineffective for solving aging, challenging the stated rationale for mass immigration.

Canada’s fertility rate collapsed to ~1.25 (historic low). Instead of supporting families, housing, and wages, government chose population replacement via mass immigration. That’s not demographic policy — that’s demographic outsourcing.
