Legault the Only Premier Backing up His Request for Reductions Of Asylum Seekers with Data
https://nationalpost.com/news/canada/quebec-premier-francois-legault-asylum-seekers
"...The premier reminded Trudeau that asylum seekers who are waiting for work permits receive financial assistance from Quebec. Last October, some 43,200 asylum seekers received $33 million in aid.
Legault expressed particular concern over Mexican nationals, who he said represent a growing proportion of the asylum seekers coming to the province.
“The possibility of entering Canada from Mexico without a visa certainly explains part of the influx of asylum seekers,” he said.
“The airports, particularly in Toronto and Montreal, are becoming sieves and it is time to act,” he added.

Interest Rates Are Not Decreasing in 2024
With municipal taxes increasing +10% like Mayor Chow's in Toronto, new and increasing taxes by the Liberals in 2024, annual rises on carbon taxes (impacting food, transportation, heating your home) rising oil prices, Houthi pirate ships driving shipping traffic around the longer Africa route rather than Suez Canal (longer, more expensive goods, products, foods, etc), out of control and baseless immigration levels, greedy and outrageous union demands for baseless increases while shutting down ports and bridges, unnecessary government spending, record debts/deficits, money given away to foreign aid and 15 year old students during covid (rather than the Canadian military and/or Veterans' needs), overlaid with the extra costs of ESG/DEI/Gender politics

BUSTED: So this is how you arrive at 900,000 international students in a country that doesn't even have that many existing, legitimate spots for either Canadian or international students...600 unaccredited, worthless, private "career colleges" in Ontario alone!
So this is how you arrive at 900,000 international students in a country that doesn't even have that many existing, legitimate spots for either Canadian or international students...600 unaccredited, worthless, private "career colleges" in Ontario alone!!! Why is there not a crack down on these rogue and fraudulent institutions?!?! Only set up to take money for useless degrees/diplomas/certificates. The NDPLiberals encourage it. Time to take immigration out of government hands and make it independent like the Courts, Bank of Canada, etc. For an "evidence, facts and science based" government, there has been none. Just higher and higher round numbers.
