    So you are moving to a new street, but suddenly it’s not allowed because someone else maybe did something. You don’t know why, what, who, but your rights have been lessened. That’s how

      Its not a right. Its not “a new street”, its a country.

      And to continue your metaphor, theres literally not enough houses on the street.

        There’s plenty of houses. Street or city or country, it doesn’t matter. There’s no valid reason to prevent innocent individuals from choosing any of them. Sounds like a right, why wouldn’t it be

          Canadians cant even find a house anymore, much less buy one. The UK is paving the country side. House supply is down, they literally cant build quick enough to handle the influx.

          I think you and I have fundementally different ideas about immigration and what a country is.

            Yes. I don’t see it as the root cause for issues which exist regardless of it

              The matve population of canada is shrinking. The only reason its growing is immigration, and they literally cant build enough houses to keep up. Theres not enough construction workers and not enough hours in a day.

              Its 100% the fault of immigration.

                Yeah it’s pretty sad what is happening to the population of Inuit and First Nation Indians in Canada.

                Forced assimilation and discrimination have really shrunk Canada’s truly native population.

                  I know you were being snarky, but theyre a great example of why immigration is bad. They will never recover.
