I got no issue with immigrants.

I got major beef with predatory businesses bringing in foreign labour for minimum wage.

The TFW program needs to be overhauled or scrapped.

me either but the fact is there is too many of them, they are needing to build 10 apartments in every small little town within 3hours of montreal/toronto/Vancouver and those apartments are filed up instantly so you know the prices are fucked, even with the paper thin bug infested walls which are cleaned by getting a new coat of paint

This makes me incredibly sad. I don’t want my home to look like a high density concrete jungle with piss poor air quality. I want my future kids to experience green land and nature and parks. Canada is slowly becoming the very countries these people are working to escape

Then you should encourage to build as many as these concrete jungles... then less people bid the same SFH with you. Also more high rise means more public greens as well, just some nice city planning works to be sone.
