A large number of newcomers (estimated 140,000 in 2024) who want to exchange their driver's license for a Quebec one go for their tests. However, even if they fail their SAAQ test, they can still drive, representing a danger behind the wheel

According to La Presse, a large number of newcomers who want to exchange their driver's license for a Quebec one go for their tests. However, even if they fail their SAAQ test, they can still drive, representing a danger behind the wheel.

Think of all the other provinces! With freezing temperatures and something many have not seen before, nevermind drove in....snow!

In 2022, 80,000 applications were made to the Crown corporation. In 2023, there were 112,000 applications. This year, it is estimated that nearly 140,000 newcomers will want to exchange their driver's license for the Quebec one.

Evaluators noted in their report that some of these new arrivals run stop signs, cut cars off, stop in the middle of the street, do not respect pedestrian crossings and do not respect speed limits. For its part, the Quebec government estimates that these people need six months to adjust to the Quebec Highway Code.

When it Comes to International Student Immigration, The NDP-Less Liberals Are Doing a Lot of Running Around, But Nothing Has Changed

 Still the same old system of 900,000 foreign students for a college and university system that does not have 900,000 spots for either foreign or domestic students.  Admission marks increase, more competition for work experience and Canadian students are getting squeezed. 

And yet the NDP-Less Liberals would have you think we have a labour shortage in Canada. At a rate of 6.6% in August versus 4.1% in USA (61% higher!), there is no labour shortage in Canada!
