We need more immigration to support the old age pension. If there is no refugees or as you call it asylum seekers our population will not increase. Somebody has to keep paying inorder to run the Government. The rich and the big corporation do not pay their fair share of taxes.

We need to put considerations for asylum seekers and refugees who are fleeing violence like the ones in Central Americas. I see that majority of Canadians are totally blind like in Social Media with too much XENOPHOBIA making too much excuses to condemn Asylees. We need to look at them before we consider them, though not everyone gets to go to Canada. These are not just random people claiming asylum, these are people trying to escape violence from their country, if Trump does not want them, well they have no choive but to move north.

Maybe Canadians are not as tolerant or as compassionate as we think we are.

I wholly supports the government’s immigration programs. Regarding, illegal cross borders issue, if I were the government I would grant all asylum seekers work permit so that they could sustain and support their daily cost of living allowance while their application is underway for review and evaluation by the appropriate authorities. Thus, both federal and provincial governments may avoid incurring expenditures above the threshold amounts and unprogrammed expenditures.

God? How many people are we talking about to. All it a crisis. How about Germany? They took in hundred of thousands. Canada can do something and not be so tight up and racist.
