Yeah, keep putting more taxes on everything. Keep taxing income and property that has already been taxed. Then act surprised when the fertility rate drops that low! So then you bring in migrants who will reproduce like crazy. Then you need to collect even more taxes, robbing your hard-working population to provide for them, and you get even more surprised.
But of course, you know exactly what you're doing. Those low-quality migrants are your future voters. That's why your asses in the government seats aren't going to be replaced anytime soon. Good job, liberals! Just remember, the branch you're sawing off now is the one you're sitting on. Your fall is inevitable; it's only a matter of time.
Critiques taxation and government immigration policy while expressing fears about demographic replacement and economic burden on citizens.

Jeez dread, Canada needs to do something quick, I'm seeing tis shit all over and it going to be a real mess if they don't fix it fast. Change the laws and force these people to adhere to the culture and laws, take away some one their rights, start by taking away their rights to practice their culture in public, stop their protesting, they are immigrants and should behave like a lifelong guest, deport them without question if they fail to assimilate.
Demands policy changes (change laws, force assimilation, deportation) while framing immigrants as a threat requiring urgent action and asserting cultural hierarchy.
