It would almost be acceptable if it were spread out.

But ultimately it just means more crowding in Toronto and Vancouver


There are whole swaths of the ‘settled’ country that are depopulating - northern Ontario, the non-urban prairies etc. If each town over say 5,000, but under 250,000 were to receive a 1% bump, OK...but that is not what will happen

Just this last week the G&M featured an article on highly educated, but ultimately unemployable immigrants to Toronto (not sure if they ever though about moving to Canada), were disappointed

So if illiterate 3rd worlders are having a rough go, and people with phd’s in the arts are disappointed, what is the point?
