>I hope you're ready for more unfettered immigration
Immigration is not really Canada's top issue... I mean, for fucks sake, they border USA, not Mexico. How many Americans do you know who actually want to move to Canada? They don't deal with immigration the same way America does. So that's a poor example to pick. Every other social justice/woke authoritarian policy, yeah, those are problems in Canada. Immigration? Not so much.

I know people are blaming Trump's tariffs for how things went down, but honestly... I don't think there was ever a real chance for Canada to not vote liberal. It fell from earlier on and deeper down the marxist rabbit hole, so it will be much harder for them to pull themselves back. They likely need to suffer more from left-wing policies until they figure something ain't right.

@alyx if it's not a problem then why do you have so many Indians there?

Bruh... I'm not Canadian, and one doesn't need to be Canadian to understand that the situation is very different between Canada and USA on the migration issue.

Canada doesn't have the illegal immigration problem that US has, because they don't share a border with a third world country, like US does. You don't get into Canada by illegally crossing a border, like you do in US. And you can't even get in via boats, like in EU or UK. It's not as easy to get into Canada as it is for US. As such, Canada doesn't get the crime issues from illegal immigrants.

The way you get into Canada is by plane. Which means you need 3 things: a plane ticket, a passport and a visa.

The plane ticket requirements ensures you have a bit a money and ensures your ID gets checked.

A valid passport ensures you're not a known criminal in your country of origin, because most countries out there don't give passports to criminals, so that they don't flee from justice.

A visa requirement ensures that Canada itself does a minimal amount of background vetting. Even if someone goes to Canada with just a travel visa, and overstays their visa, the background check needed to get a visa still ensures that the immigrant is of higher quality than a large amount of illegal immigrants that come to US via the border with Mexico.

You can't appeal to Canadians via immigration simply because the immigrants they get are simply of a higher quality on average. They don't get the same crime problems that US gets.
Trump didn't win twice on migration because "they took our jobs", he won because "they're eating our cats, they're eating our dogs". You won't convince Canadians with "Indians are stealing your jobs", because that wasn't what ultimately convinced Americans either. And as long as Indians don't bring in drugs on mass, don't traffic children, don't commit gang violence, and don't commit massive amounts of other crimes, no Canadian will give a crap that Indians are there in massive numbers, and will just look at you like you're a crazy racist for caring, and they'll ignore you.

Canadians are very privileged, and they may very well be the nation with the most secure border in the world, because of the single act of US buying up Alaska from Russia back in the day. This is why it is ineffective to bring up immigration to Canadians. It will never work for them as an argument simply because the mere existence of USA provides them the best border security in the world by default.

@j Fine, don't read. Remain a stupid moron that doesn't understand why you can't appeal to Canadians via immigration.

>im for LEGAL immigration

You known these governments stick niggers on a plane and fly them in the middle of the night?

But its legal so dont sweat it goy.

@Xenophon @j
It doesn't matter if I'm for legal immigration or not. I'm TELLING YOU that Canadians WILL NEVER see immigration the same way you do. And it is LITERALLY America's doing that Canadians are privileged in this way that they WILL NEVER see the worst case scenario of unfettered immigration because they literally will never experience it due to geography and the facts of them having only 1 neighboring country that protects their borders by default.
Flying people in the middle of the night is jack shit compared to actually having a physical border with a 3rd world country.

So do yourself a favor, and find other arguments with which to convince Canadians, cause unless you sell Alaska to Venezuela, or back to Russia, or some other shit, Canada WILL NEVER experience immigration the say way you do.

@alyx @Xenophon @j we get imigrants just the same as you just we dont get violent ones or mexicans
@eris @alyx @Xenophon @j

There's some Indian/Sikh violence; nothing like cartels or niggers, but they're not very civilized.
@dsm @Xenophon @alyx @j its very little they just kill each other and dont hurt anyone else

@eris @j
>we dont get violent ones or mexicans
And that was my point. Which is why you won't get Canadians to care as much as Americans do.
