Trudeau Acknowledges Migrant Crisis

The migrant crisis in Canada has the nation in ruin. Home inventory has shrank to unseen levels as millions of migrants and foreign workers have caused a massive uptick in demand. Jobs are sparse, especially entry-level jobs, and over 1 million Canadians are out of work. More importantly, Canada’s population surpassed 41 million citizens, marking an all-time UNSUSTAINABLE high. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau would now like to make some slight adjustments to the temporary foreign worker legislation.

It is far too little, too late. These temporary workers are already in Canada and need jobs and accommodations. Still, new restrictions prohibit employers from hiring more than 10% of their total staff with foreign workers. Canada’s overall unemployment rate reached 6.4% in July. To bypass this fact, Trudeau is looking at unemployment on a city basis. Places where the unemployment rate is over 6% will not be able to hire foreign workers unless they are involved in agriculture.

“We need Canadian businesses to invest in training and technology, not increasing their reliance on low-cost foreign labour,” Trudeau said. “It’s not fair to Canadians struggling to find a good job, and it’s not fair to those temporary foreign workers, some of whom are being mistreated and exploited.”

Justin, you were the one who opened the floodgates and allowed Canadians to be exploited. You condemned anyone who questioned your open-border policy as a racist. Then, you implemented the foreign worker program under the guise that newcomers were needed to fill high-skilled labor positions. The Bank of Canada reported that migrant unemployment reached 11.6% in June. The low-skilled positions held by non-citizens have multiplied from 15,817 in 2016 to 83,654 in 2023.

The youth are struggling to enter the workforce as a direct result of foreign worker policies. Citizens are struggling to find housing in every nation that has implemented open border policies. How do you expect to multiply your population in a short amount of time without drastic changes to infrastructure? Canada, the US, Europe, and others have told migrant to come, bring their entire extended families, and the government will provide them with shelter, food, all basic living necessities at the expense of their own people. Can we even blame the migrants for taking up such an offer?

Mass deportations are the only option to quell costs. Even if Canada were to close its border today, the population of migrants would still be too high for governments to sponsor. Failed leaders like Trudeau played a nasty game with the lives of innocent individuals who perhaps were seeking a better life through foreign worker programs. This measure is merely placing a cup of water on a fire that is burning down a city. Canada needs major reform and that cannot happen through the same people who created the problem.
