We can no longer fix this issue because the majority or our country is IMMIGRANTS! They literally can out vote real Canadians. We have lost our country. The west doesn’t even get a say in federal politics…immigration is a multi billion dollar industry. There is nothing left in this country for our children and I am truly scared to grow old here with millions of immigrants who hate us and our country, running everything and filling our medical system.
Whites are blames for being racist yet anyone with common sense can see whites are the LEAST racist of all.
We are doomed, and quite honestly this country isn’t worrh fighting for…we don’t have free speech or the right to self preservation for a country that won’t stfu about ‘human rights’
Expresses demographic anxiety, existential threat to national identity, and fear of loss of control, with secondary identity-based and moral framing.

If you want a visit visa for US you are interviewed by an immigration official and these criminals would be rightly refused.

This cannot happen soon enough. Canadians are dieing in vast numbers on our highways from these folks unable to drive in our systems. Cars are stolen in large numbers, extortion is rampant, home invasion is at an all time high. These folks obviously are not responsible for all of it but they play a big part in the problem. The obvious protesters that are interfering with everyday life and the obvious hatred towards certain groups needs to be dealt with. Send them home since they do not appreciate being canadian.
Lists multiple crime and safety concerns (highway deaths, car theft, extortion, home invasion) attributed to immigrants.
