That is the reason I think AI should rule the country, not the politicians. Politicians clearly make wrong decisions one after the other. Their only concern is to save their seats. 😊

Can thank Trudeau for the immigration mess we are in. Between 2015 to 2024, Canada took in just over 3 million immigrants. This does not include temporary foreign workers and international students both of which saw a significant increase especially after mid-2022. About over one quarter of the new immigrants are from India and Pakistan. This likely explains how Brampton became the fastest growing city in Canada (ninth most populous municipality in Canada) and the third largest city in Ontario surpassing Mississauga at the start of 2025 behind Toronto and Ottawa. Trudeau preached immigration diversity but this is not diversity when over a quarter came from 2 countries.
Criticizes Trudeau's immigration policy and presents specific statistics about immigrant origins; the claim about 'over a quarter from 2 countries' lacks verification.

You can cut the BS. This is largely a right wing propaganda. All the money and other things immigrants or refugees receive. I want to see a government issued monthly statement, not propaganda from the far right. The same is playing out in other countries. That is the plan to gain power. Even getting people of the same ethnicity to give legimacy. Like giving testemonials to sell some crap on tv.😂 I am not surprised if people are angry, but they should get the facts, before they do something based on lies.
Criticizes government immigration policy and media narratives as propaganda, calling for transparent documentation of immigrant benefits.
