The only reason more immigration is proposed is that Canada will give every new immigrant a share of the existing taxpayer's money and resources. That is why the government is broke (that and corporate welfare). Corporations love it because CANADIANS are paying for it and they get more consumers (using tax resources) AND it suppresses wages and human rights. If Canada said no more welfare, health care or social assistance from tax dollars for new immigrants for five years (an employer has to pay for it), NOBODY would propose high immigration levels.

I am not anti-immigrant, my family is racially mixed, but anyone with sense can connect the dots: high immigration has caused the financial implosion of the middle class since the 90's, depressed wages for everyone dependent on wage, uses more and more of tax dollars, and has record numbers of new immigrants living in poverty. It is insane for any regular Canadian to support immigration levels higher than 80,000 a year.
