Recently, Alberta’s Minister of Jobs, Economy, Trade, and Immigration, Joseph Schow, declared that Mark Carney’s Liberal government “has lost control over immigration” and warned that the Liberal government’s inability to effectively regulate the influx of international mass migration within Canada has imposed a severe strain upon “housing, healthcare, employment, and other public services” throughout Alberta.

Parliament should allow free debate on immigration quotas without dismissing calls for reductions as racist, the Macdonald-Laurier Institute said Thursday.
The Ottawa think tank warned that Canada’s reluctance to face blunt disagreements on immigration has left the country “weakened to the point of serious decline.”

Here’s what Canada’s latest immigration data reveals
Prime Minister Mark Carney’s government has revealed the closely watched statistics on permanent and temporary resident trends after being accused for weeks by the Conservatives of withholding the data.
On Friday, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada updated its webpages with data on arrivals of asylum claimants, international students and foreign workers, as well as applications caught up in the department’s backlog.
Although there are still more than 2.2 million immigration applications awaiting a decision, the number of temporary residents — made up of international students, foreign workers and refugee claimants — declined in the first six months of 2025, compared to the same period last year.
Declined? Not by any material amount. Carney and his pal Wiseman are screwing us over as expected. It is an act of evil.
The article is BULLSHIT PROPAGANDA excreted by the Star on demand.
This is not immigration, it is population replacement.
Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow is speaking out after recently learning that the federal government plans to only provide a quarter of the funding the city requires to cover the costs of providing interim housing for refugees and asylum seekers.
In a letter addressed to her City Council colleagues, Chow said the feds notified the City of Toronto that they would be paying out only 26 per cent of what Toronto projects to spend on shelter costs for refugees and asylum seekers in 2025.
In the note, Chow suggests that the shortfall amounts to a “cut.”
We are governed by Monsters who hate us.

Young people are struggling in the labour market for two main reasons: high immigration and high minimum wages
Young people have borne the brunt of the recent deterioration in Canada’s labour market. Youth unemployment usually runs at about twice the rate for adults, reflecting young workers’ lower productivity and inexperience at searching for a job. But now it’s nearly three times the rate for adults, which puts it at “crisis levels” according to some commentators.
The likely cause of this crisis? Government programs that have raised the minimum wage and sharply increased the supply of low-skilled foreign workers.
Our Titans of Industry, our so called “Business leaders” demanded and received more cheap foreign labour than was ever needed with no questions asked from the Liberal government.
They sold us out, all of us.
Roughly half of young renters and a third of tenants at all ages are spending the majority of their after-tax income on rent, according to a new report.
Experts say the survey, which was published by Rentals.ca this week, shows that the adage of limiting your rental expenses to one-third of your income is simply no longer possible for many Canadians – a situation that could threaten the ability of renters to adequately save for retirement.
I find it sickening that the Globe which advocates for continued mass immigration pretends to give a damn about anyone squeezed out of housing by corporate Canada’s imported scabs.
Economists are urging the government to factor in the estimated 500,000 undocumented residents in Canada as it consults on its forthcoming immigration levels plan.
Immigration Minister Lena Diab is consulting on targets for the number of temporary and permanent residents Canada plans to allow in the next three years, in what some consider a litmus test of Prime Minister Mark Carney’s position on immigration.
The immigration levels are annually presented in October or November to help planning for housing, schools, health care and infrastructure.
First erect walls encircling the city then ship them all to Ottawa.
Farking lying bastards.
Numbers update.
Immigration levels in first third of the year outpaced @MarkJCarney promised cap on quotas.
Figures released by @CitImmCanada for first 120 days set a pace that would see nearly 400,000 new landed immigrants in 2025.https://t.co/oiom76oPHa@LenaMetlegeDiab… pic.twitter.com/pk3nltzwcY— Holly Doan (@hollyanndoan) August 13, 2025
From Torontology – When did everyone in the GTA turn Indian?
“So I just came back to Canada after being out of the country for a couple years, an after searching for a few months I landed a forklift warehouse job in the GTA, paying about $23/hour.
Whole crew? Indian.
Managers? Indian.
I was literally the only non-Indian guy there.
They all speaking Punjabi or Hindi or something the whole time I didn’t understand a thing
The lunchroom absolutely smelled like ass I couldn’t even my meal in there so I went and ate it in my car.
Then after my shift I hit McDonald’s to grab a drink… same thing. Staff, customers everyone there was Indian too.
Not tryna be rude or weird or nothing, I was just shook. Like when did this happen?? Was there some big immigration wave recently or is this just how it’s been in Ontario now?
Genuinely curious haven’t been around in a few years and it feels like the GTA changed heavy. What the fuck happened?”
Why to drop a bad idea on immigration
The federal government seems to be quietly abandoning a program that would have opened a door to permanent residency for temporary foreign workers employed in low-wage jobs in Canada.
The program, mentioned unceremoniously in a bulletin in the Canada Gazette in April of 2024, appeared to offer a quick path to permanent residency for international students and temporary foreign workers making a living as food and beverage servers, delivery drivers, cleaners and general labourers.
What sort of scumbags would happily sacrifice Canadians for cheap foreign labour?
Corporate Canada that’s who.
I swear they’re gonna make me some sort of new wave communist.
The Carney Liberals have been hiding immigration data from Canadians for months. Now, after being called out on it, the government says it’s all in the name of openness and transparency.
Normally, government numbers on the number of new arrivals, the number of asylum seekers and more are released on the government’s open data portal. As of now, the government hasn’t released any data since May and that information only covers until the end of March.

More than a year after announcing a new immigration stream that would have granted permanent residency to low-wage workers already in Canada, the federal government has yet to move ahead on formally launching the program – suggesting that Ottawa could be backing away from the plan altogether.
The plan targeting low-wage workers was informally announced in April 2024, through the Canada Gazette. Consultations were set to begin last year on amending immigration laws to admit a “new permanent economic class of workers in TEER 4 and TEER 5 jobs.”
Mass immigration from incompatible cultures is a feature not a bug. Yes they are out to get you.
It seems like a lifetime ago, but Justin Trudeau was Canada’s prime minister until only a few months ago.
As he gets smaller and smaller in the rearview mirror, we’re coming to terms with some of the public policy disasters that came out of Trudeau’s time as prime minister.

OTTAWA — Canada’s housing crisis may get worse before it starts to show much relief, as new projections say that the number of housing starts will actually decrease this year and next.
These new estimates, from both public and private sector housing forecasts, contradict political promises from all levels of government to boost supply of homes across the country.
It’s all good Carney and his pals will continue making money off the shortages mass immigration creates.
How do Canadian officials detect plagiarized refugee claims?
A failed refugee claimant came to Amandeep Singh in May for help after he was refused because his claim was “nearly word for word” identical to others before the refugee board.
While the Edmonton-based immigration consultant had heard for a long time that some claimants and their counsel have plagiarized claims to game the system, what struck him was what tool the refugee board and immigration officials use to flag these cases, which he says seems to have happened more often.
Don’t worry Carney and his pal Wiseman will make it easy for the unvetted … Immigration lawyers say rising number of CSIS security screenings causing delays
Century Initiative co-founder Mark Wiseman says “a lot of the screening” of immigrants is “a waste of time”.

As premiers push for more immigration power, experts call for a fact-based debate
OTTAWA – Some premiers say they want to have more local control over the immigration system — but experts say what the system really needs is a national conversation on immigration reform that shores up public support.
“Most of the existing policies have been formulated on the fly without any evidence or serious impact evaluations of what the various classes of immigrants are, how they’re performing economically and otherwise,” said Michael Trebilcock, a retired academic and co-author of two books on immigration policy.
“So it’s basically research-free.”
According to new data from Statistics Canada, young Canadians are facing a historically challenging job market. In June, the unemployment rate for young people (aged 15-24) was 14.2%, up from 13.5% in June 2024, which was already a bad year in historical terms. By comparison, in the pre-pandemic years from 2017 to 2019, the average youth unemployment rate in June averaged 10.9%.
