> People of often having a cultural, religious and moral background completely different to more-or-less original value Canadians? How will that work?

Most are not interested in western culture, they come here specifically for the salary, while maintaining the culture and social networks from where theyre originally from.

And there are 1.5 billion Indians and 1.5 billion Chinese people.

How that will work is: as they become the dominant culture your country will simply become either China west or India west.

In America they let the population of an entire state every year of immigrants into America.

Caveat: there are some states so sparsely populated there are more livestock than people.

Not really. The political issues with immigration absolutely not do not include finding empty land to put them in.

Also, the frontier has been closed for a long time.

I’m just saying “an entire states worth of immigrants are let in annually” may actually be not a very large number because some states are sparse. It is impossible to tell if the number reasonable to worry over based on this measurement.

This is sometimes true, but irrelevant, because their children adopt the local culture and are fully integrated. This is anti-immigration red herring.

this is not even remotely true.

their kids are still getting arranged marriages.

their kids are getting their social networks from their churches.

their kids are going to culturally specific schools.

Even their neighborhoods are culturally specific i.e. Chinatown, Korea town, India town, etc
