What you have got going on in other no name Provinces?
Why don't you build factories, housing, infrastructure and require all new immigrants to train,study, live and work there?
Some will bytch and moan but a lot of immigrants will jump on the chance
Pair them fair wages
:ufdup:

We already have that with provincial nominations

Yall might need a quota system for countries and cap other countries with exceptions on high skilled workers and refugees that fit Canada’s requirements for asylum. Yall would be justified in making the process for Indians much tougher now since they represent such an outsized part of the immigrant population. Prolly a bunch of other places that would offer something to the country but aren’t getting a shot rn.

Maybe do the DV (diversity visa) shyt that America has done in the past so that yall can be selective on who does and doesn’t get a chance to immigrate to Canada.
This is what the US does it makes it super difficult to get the green card for folks from India and China because there's so many of them here already. Canada's immigration system is better than the US because it's actually a points based system where qualified and educated people can actually earn their citizenship quicker. The issue with Cac Canada is that their immigration system gets exploited by foreign students. They also don't have balls enough to deport people aggressively like US does. Also most of the immigrants go to Toronto or Vancouver and then those cities turn to shyt.

If you're a geography buff you know that most of Canada's territory is above a large glacial rock formation which is very near to the surface. This is called the Canadian shield. It makes it very difficult to grow anything here. Also the weather is shyt for most of the landmass. Maybe it'll be a heaven in 200 years when the globe warms. There's a reason trump wants it

That seems like the main issue. Yall might need to develop your mid major cities up to be larger to accommodate because it seems like it’s gonna be a problem at this point even if you stop immigration for a period. The question is how? I know despite being the coldest major North American city that Winnipeg is growing at a rate that’ll have them at a million residents by the end of the decade. How will these people find work? The same might be true for other cities like Edmonton and Calgary.

Sounds ultra simplistic, but if you solve the issues of jobs and housing then yall can accomodate the eventual population boom from all these immigrants.

Yes the conservatives.

The Liberals are horrible leaders, and no other party, other than the Tories are an option.

The Liberals removed mandatory minimums for firearm offences, and simultaneously inteoduced bail reform, that cobtributed to a rise in violent offences such as home invasions and car theft.

The liberals won't bring in good self defence laws, but instead are banning law abiding gun owners from owning certain firearms. EVEN THOUGH THE POLICE ARE TELLING THE LIBERALS THAT IT IS AMERICAN SMUGGLED FIREARMS THAT THEY CONFISCATE 95% OF THE TIME! Not legally purchased firearms.

The Liberals have been caught up in so many scandals: SNC Lavalan, WE charity, abuse of the emergencies act during the trucker protest (which the federal government has been found guilty of).

Increasing our taxes on an already over burdened citizen.

Immigration crisis that has screwed over our hospitals, housing, schools system, jobs, roads, etc...


I mean what are you really asking me?

The Liberals don't deserve another chance under any leadership

Canadians are stupid man.
They may not

But Trump seems to be messing up your Tories

And allowing the Libs to lean into nationalism

My tories lol.

I vote for whoever makes the most sense at the time of election.

But yes, Trump fukked up a lot of shyt here politically, and I can't see the Tories winning a majority government at this point.

The most ironic thing is that Liberals want a post Nationalist Canada. The irony.

If the Liberals win then God help us all!

This guy was the advisor to the worst PM, so what do you think he is going to do during his tenor?

Canada is a lost country filled with dementia patients for citizens.
He was also the Bank of Canada Governor under our last Conservative PM and was a Bank of England Governor under a Conservative UK government. Trying to suggest he’s a hardcore Trudeau partisan is simply political spin. Far more likely he’ll govern similar to Martin-Chrétien Liberals and move the party to the centre.

Absolutely not.

Name me one thing Carney did during the conservative government's reign that was independent of Jim Flaherty's work for Canada?

Carney is usng the pasing of time to trick people who were not paying attention or forgot.

The finance minister, is the one ultimately responsible for monetary policy in Canada. The Bank of Canada govenor can make suggestions, but the Finance minister has the final say.

You’re responding to something I didn’t claim - I didn’t say he was responsible for Harper’s record for better or worse, only that he was appointed by Harper as governor.

The Governor of the Bank of Canada is a PM appointed job. If he was the hardcore leftie partisan you say he is, why did a Conservative PM appoint him to the job? Why did a Conservative PM in a totally different country appoint him to same job?

As for his impact, Harper’s words on that are public record:


On behalf of the Government of Canada I would like to offer my congratulations to Mark Carney on his appointment as Governor of the Bank of England.

In this time of global economic uncertainty, Governor Carney has done an admirable job in fulfilling the Bank of Canada’s mandate and has been a valued partner as the Government has worked to steer Canada away from the worst impacts of the global economic recession. As a result, Canada remains an example to the world with its strong banks, effective regulatory environment and sound economic policy.”

At the time Carney may have been neutral or leaned more conservative hence why harper would have chose him, but that was some time ago. Clearly his political position has changed and he saw the opportunity to become PM by being a Liberal. People's political affiliations change all the time.

The same PM Harper you are quoting is also saying, "Carney’s experience is NOT the day-to-day management of Canada’s economy during the global financial crisis,”.

“I have listened, with increasing disbelief, to Mark Carney’s attempts to take credit for things he had little or nothing to do with back then. He has been doing this at the expense of the late Jim Flaherty, among the greatest Finance Ministers in Canada’s history, who sadly is not here to defend his record. But let me be very clear: the hard calls during the 2008-2009 global financial crisis were made by Jim,"
