65 per cent of Canadians say Canada is accepting too many legal immigrants. That figure, less than a year ago in February, was just 50 per cent. In March 2019, only 35 per cent of Canadians held that view.
Background:
Based on this poll https://acs-metropolis.ca/studies/negative-sentiment-towards-immigrants-in-canada-is-on-the-rise/
Has an n of 1612. 50% admit not having a good understanding of immigration policy.
Say it with me: The Federal Government is not responsible for housing and infrastructure.
Now that we’ve got that out of the way, it’s up to provincial and municipal leadership to stop allowing so many single, detached homes and start developing some higher density housing.
But first, you have to convince the NIMBYs that higher density homes won’t send their community into ruin… Good luck!
Its like health care, people complain to the PM, but its a provincial matter.
Add in roads/traffic, energy, prisons, social services, long-term care, police, snow removal, etc., etc., etc.
Literally, the things that affect people on a daily basis are NOT matters of the Federal Government.
So when the 'fuck Trudeau", flag-waving, F150 crowd is pissed off about their current situation, they should stop to think why they keep voting for a Conservative government.
Unless they have a grievance about our national parks, foreign policy, aboriginal land, or national defence, they should focus their anger on the leadership who are actually causing harm to this country and their communities.
well said.
Our economy and growth are literally being strangled to death by NIMBYs and corrupt zoning
