LOL!! I’m laughing so hard.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced the country would limit immigration because the government let it too many immigrants after 2020.
What?! Gee, who could have saw this coming! Just wow.
Trudeau’s Liberal government was criticized for its plan to allow 500,000 new permanent residents into the country in each of the next two years. On Thursday, he said next year’s target will now be 395,000 new permanent residents and that the figure will drop to 380,000 in 2026 and 365,000 in 2027.“In the tumultuous times as we emerged from the pandemic, between addressing labor needs and maintaining population growth, we didn’t get the balance right,” Trudeau said.“Immigration is essential for Canada’s future, but it must be controlled and it must be sustainable.”
In 2023, Canada’s population increased “by about 1.3 million.”
Immigration contributed to that rise by 97.6%, “with just under 472,000 immigrants settling in the country last year and the number of temporary residents — most of whom are foreign workers — rising by around 805,000.”
One survey showed “more than half of respondents held a negative view of the immigration system.”
