Canadians have always been opposed to mass immigration, but there was no politician able to say it without being cancelled.

Last year, 471,550 immigrants were admitted to Canada under existing federal quotas. Additionally, there were 766,520 temporary foreign workers and 1,040,985 recipients of foreign study permits allowed into the country.

According to the Department of Immigration, most Canadians believe that schools should “accept fewer international students” but agree that migrant workers are necessary. However, there’s 4.9 million people in the country on a temporary basis whose permits expire at the end of 2025.
