The Sept 1st Globa/Nanos poll showed 80% of Canadians did not want more immigration, but the government increased it anyhow! So that's baloney to start with. Consumer spending is the biggest component of GDP growth, and employment income is the biggest source for spending, and immigration and foreign labor has the biggest negative impact on improving the workforce employment rate. Immigration causes homelessness and kills Canadians, ruins Canadian families, increases in country inequality, suppresses the birth rate etc etc. etc etc So it's safe say government policy is broken, and the media is broken, since it doesn't stick up for Canadians it does the exact opposite, it discriminates against Canadians and makes things worse, by spreading misinformation further compounding problems. "Pessimistic leaders" this authors says, this author doesn't know anything, I thought fellow Canadians were smarter and more honest. It's called tight labor supply, like the 1950s-60s. Only way forward!
