A majority of Canadians want the country to accept fewer immigrants and temporary residents next year, according to a new Nanos Research survey commissioned by CTV News, as the country continues to grapple with immigration levels and their impact on housing, services and the economy.

The survey found that 52.3 per cent of respondents believe Canada should accept fewer immigrants and temporary residents in 2027, compared with 33.5 per cent who want the numbers to remain about the same.

    Implying that illegal immigration is indeed a significant problem in USA?

    That’s only the implication to someone who believes “Republican rhetoric” is truthful by nature. But who could possibly be that stupid?

    Cuz I assure you, leftists and commies there still argue that illegal immigration is not at all a significant problem in USA.

    So anyone that’s not a Republican is a leftist or commie?

    Marx and Engles famously wrote a whole bunch of eurocentric and bigoted nonsense. Who takes those racist idiots seriously in 2026 other than confused commies?

    The things the Republicans have been saying and doing are far more geocentric and bigoted but you just argued how they were in the right. Is your problem that what Marx and Engels wrote wasn’t stupid enough? But what does this have to do with the fact that what you’er mad at them for writing is more relevant than what they referred to Marx about. It’s weird you got so sidetracked by this that you brought in Engels out of nowhere too.

    You’re not about to convince the majority that Trudeau era policy is not mass migration and is overall good for the average citizens.

    It’d be weird if I did considering I wasn’t doing that at all.

      You brought up Marx. I went ahead and mentioned his racist, supremacist buddy. Why so offended?

      Republicans are shit. Even maple-MAGA is starting to question if pushing all the strength into culture wars is a winning strategy. Pissing on USian racists is easy.

      Fixing our own and ourselves is harder. Being annoyed at Left doesn’t mean you’re chill with MAGA horseshit

        Go back and re-read the comment I was replying to. Seems odd that someone who is the calm and collected one could miss that. The funny thing is that the thing I was referring to about Marx would actually be a criticism of Trudeau’s policies, so you’re actually taking the tack of defending Trudeau. Blindly defending Trudeau, basically.

        Republicans are shit. Even maple-MAGA is starting to question if pushing all the strength into culture wars is a winning strategy. Pissing on USian racists is easy.

        So then how did you get that implication?

        Fixing our own and ourselves is harder. Being annoyed at Left doesn’t mean you’re chill with MAGA horseshit

        When you start sounding closer to MAGA horeshit than anyone else, that annoyance might not be justified. Like, you know, suggesting that anyone left of MAGA are leftists and commies.
