I would still accept people graduating from Quebec university with degrees in Computer Science, Medicine, mathematics. It is just being more selective.

The first problem is that no country has a long range plan: where do they want to be on 20/50/100 years. The basic economic plan is for growth but this is not sustainable. Reduced birth rates mean that immigration is needed, if only to reduce the impact of an aging population and to reduce the demands on the young adult population. This should be aimed at getting to a sustainable state but no government is planning for it. They only plan for the current electoral cycle.
Critiques government lack of long-term planning and argues that immigration policy should be tied to sustainable economic goals rather than short-term electoral cycles.

I think what this is saying is they will not be tried by the criminal justice system but deported. No consequences. Just deport. Try again later.
At 1:42 it says, "While Police may be limited in their ability to have charges approved, in some of the cases involving foreign nationals, federal immigration laws could be a useful tool in helping ease the extortion threat."
Analyzes and critiques the deportation policy as insufficient punishment, arguing criminals face no real consequences.
