you are making an assumption that all migrants and refugees get on and remain on social services. Sponsored migrants which, is the vast majority are not allowed on to social services. Their sponsor(s) have to support them. That has a tendency to move them into the workforce sooner aka become tax payers.
With the current birthrate in this country, immigration is needed.
What about Canadian citizens; the ones that are unemployed? Would they be happy a foreigner taking their job? Of course not. So why can't the Canadian government provide for it's own people instead of foreigners? Sure, migrants can become taxpayers, but the fact of the matter is that Canadians aren't too keen on foreigners replacing them in the workforce.
"with the current birthrate in this country, immigration is needed".
Wrong. Canadian citizens with jobs are needed, not foreigners. Can you give me a reason why there's a problem with Canada's birth rate? Any statistics? Factual data, perhaps?
I only engage racist bigots like yourself at a minimal level. Beyond that, it is a waste of my time and energy. You want to hold forth about my country, do your own research.
I'm a racist bigot? LOL!!! I'm not against people wanting a better life, what I'm against is politicians like Trudeau allowing thousands of immigrants into the country; putting their needs ahead of his citizens. How can you not see that?
probably the same way you can't seem to get your head around the fact this country was built on immigration and we gain more by having them than by not.
Unless you happen to be a First Nations person... then the difference between you and the person just arriving is how many generations you've been here.
So you don't mind if you have a family and are struggling to make ends meet, then you get fired and replaced by foreigner that will work for much less than what you were being payed for. Let me know how that works out for you IF you experience such a situation.
in this country there are laws against that happening. Maybe you need to focus on better, more equitable laws that keep businesses in line instead of penalizing people who need a new start.
Focus on equitable laws? Why? How is that improving the situation that your country and quite possibly other countries that may face the same situation? Where is the public outcry from your country regarding mass migration? You represent only a small majority that wants mass migration, but I don't think others agree.
Canadians debate the issue but there is no strong isolationist movement like appears to be going on south of the border. Most Canadians recognize that being racist, bigots solves nothing.
Oh, and by the way, a mosque in Canada was shot up by a lone gunman; leaving 6 dead, several others wounded. Here's the link if you're interested.

So tell me, do you really think most Canadians are in favor of multiculturalism?
So one out of 36 million determines that most Canadians are not in favour of multiculturalism? Get a life. You want to see the real Canada, take a look at the responses from Canadians across the country.
Not that you really want to see out of your bigoted worldview.
Only the ones that don't use violence against Muslims. And I have seen Canada. It was very clean and the people friendly. However, that's all gonna change very soon and not for the better. You claim my views regarding migration is bigoted. Not at all. It's that migration needs to have some form of control; your PM is losing control of the situation and some Canadians are using violence to voice their views; not that I condone violence in any way, shape, or form.
That is the result of politicians implicating mass migration and multiculturalism and shoving it down their throats. Where was their voice on the issue? None.
Of course being a racist bigot doesn't solve anything; I'm not one either. But you have to draw the line concerning the well being of your country; PM Trudeau is not doing either of you any favors whatsoever. You need to clear your head and realize the danger you and your country are in.
The only danger my country is in is from the likes of you and your so called non-bigotry ... carry on with destruction of your own country
Your paranoia clouds your judgement; might I suggest you re-educate yourself on the pitfalls of mass migration and how the only way a nation can maintain sustainability is by balancing the needs of the citizens in addition to migrants.
Canada has sustained itself quite nicely for over 150 years thank you very much. IF not being a bigot is paranoia... whatever floats your boat. Enjoy your delusions.
And just how is Canada gonna sustain itself in the NEXT 150 years? Bringing in more migrants who would work for less than what Canadians are usually paid for? Outsourcing jobs; forcing Canadians to rely on government assistance; never mind the fact that the more migrants they bring in, the more strained those resources will be; not to mention overcrowding and lack of housing/space for these migrants?
"Enjoy your delusions". LOL!! You'll be enjoying your delusions alright with a nice, cold bottle of Scotch as your savings dwindle and forced into either living with your folks or on the streets.
Take your pick.
Yawn... way too much wasted energy on the likes of you ... bye bye
