In summer heat, a very important event has gone widely unnoticed.
At the end of June, the Trump administration announced that it ended the temporary protection status granted by the Biden administration to 520,000 Haitians currently in the United States.
They will therefore have to leave US territory in early September.
Too much
Guess what many will try to do.
They will try to come to Canada.
If we put ourselves in their shoes for two seconds, we can understand that they do not want to return to Haiti.
But Canada is not in a situation that allows it to let in all those who would like to come there.
This time, it cannot be said that the authorities were not warned, that they will not have seen it coming in advance.
I predict you that we will still be entitled to the usual guilty sermons on compassion and on the economic and social benefits of the arrival of foreigners.
Let us understand well: carefully chosen immigration and in reasonable quantity is indisputably beneficial.
I myself was the beneficiary of such a policy once.
But we are in 2025, we are no longer in 1970.
Part of the housing crisis is explained by the insane increases in the number of immigrants in Canada in recent years.
These newcomers also need to be treated, and their children need to be educated.
I think you don’t need a drawing to understand the state of our schools and hospitals.
The governments of Quebec and Canada are already struggling with record deficits.
If employers always want more newcomers, it is not so much because of a shortage of labor.
It is rather because these arms from elsewhere allow you to keep the wages low and to delay investments in the technological turn.
Why be massive immigration if robotization will go aside?
Do you hardly escape the impression that massive immigration is a tool at the service of the economic elite?
That’s exactly it.
Do you hardly escape the impression that massive immigration is a tool to lock once and for all the political future of Quebec?
It is also exactly that.
Aberrant
Now read carefully the following.
The concept of active population designates all of the people who have a job or who are looking for a job.
The main block in this active population is 15-54 year olds.
However, between April 2023 and April 2025, this block of active people increased in Canada by 1,642,500 people.
Like the total migratory balance of Canada (therefore including those under 15 and over 55) during this period is around 2 million people, it is fair to conclude that it is immigration which explains almost all of this increase in the active population.
But during this same period, the number of jobs in Canada increased by only 711,500.
Do you hardly escape the impression that we import a lot of unemployed?
