Peope dont realise this but there is no stopping immigration in Canada. The stock market anticipates huge immigration as it is the only feasible path towards growing corporate profits. If we dont have huge immmigration, the purchasing power of boomers, derived from a booming market and real estate market, will lead to massive inflation as labor shortages occur. There is nothing we can do to stop this. Boomers are going to vote Liberal and liberals will continue to flood the country with third world immigrants who cook, clean, drive, caretake, etc. Millenials and gen Z are the ones who will never own a home or start a family. And ironically the low birth rate will lead to even more immigration. I suspect that Canada will be primarily asian and african by 2060.
Presents a causal chain linking immigration to economic outcomes (stock market, housing, inflation) with unsubstantiated claims about demographic projections and generational impacts.

Look at all those pompous siuts mad because the money tree is withering . They are losing profit in outsourced contracts. All to keep thier nation under the heel of another nation that does all the industrial work for them.\n\nThis is an opportunity for American and any other nations to stop being handcuffed to outsourced industry. Do the hard blood sweat and tears, work that needs to be done to gain independence from Chinese industrial domination ( that the west itself birthed)
Argues that tariffs represent economic opportunity for industrial independence and reduced outsourcing dependence, framed as beneficial policy reorientation.

The east Indian problem has gotten extremely bad where I am in Canada they keep buying businesses and then firing all the white people but if you call it out, you're racist like, I'm getting turned down when I hand out resumes, because I'm white and I was born in Canada its bad they're taking all the student jobs and then buying the businesses where students are working and then firing the students i'm no longer in school, so it's even harder to find a job. It's gotten to the point where if you want a job you need to work for yourself. They're even taking jobs in the trades so now people are having to work for themselves under-the-table and launder their money the average median income in Canada is anywhere from $45000 to $50000 a year the average house costs $673,335 the average household only makes $80000 a year i used to dream about having my own home and starting a family now I just hope I can find an apartment for less than $2000 a month that isn't owned by a slum Lord living in Toronto that's bought the property without ever even being to Smiths Falls a day in their life.
