I'm not an expert by any stretch but I think what America is trying to do is, by doing this, force the US market to start up working again, America can make 90% of everything it needs. \n\nThink about WW2. America wasn't reliant on world trade or manufacturing. Quite the opposite actually.\n\nOnly thing that makes sense to me.
Speculates about US economic strategy and self-sufficiency in manufacturing, comparing current policy to historical WW2 economic independence.

Here's a crazy theory, the rich ain't gonna be affected by any of this. Only the middle class. So are the majority of people gonna vote the other way now?

Immigrants are vital to Canada's economic growth and demographic health. The challenges often attributed to them are largely consequences of policy gaps in integration, settlement support, and long-term infrastructure planning. Improving the system involves refining immigrant selection and focusing on successful inclusion rather than reducing numbers.
Argues immigrants are economically vital and frames policy gaps rather than immigration itself as the problem, balancing economic and ethical perspectives.
