Curtail immigration

Immigration to Canada in 2022 was one million, and another 1.5 million (are expected) over the next three years. That's 2.5 million seeking shelter in Canada.

We certainly don't have accommodation for the people we have now. I agree we need immigration to offset our population decline.

Workers pay (for) pensions for 200,000 seniors retiring each year. That massive immigration will cause our health care (system) and school (populations) to explode. Hospitals and schools are at maximum (capacity) now. We have a shortage of doctors and health care workers.

I agree we need immigration but not this much.

We should be looking at training and educating Canadians to fill our needs as a priority. I wonder if all this immigration will turn Canada into a Third World country.
