I saw on TV a long time ago that a funeral home's "energy" (burning bodies) was used to heat homes somewhere in Europe.

We can just use data centers for heating too...maybe turn around all these protests against them

ugh...I guess I have to bring out the crayons to explain this

The reduction came from international students and temporary workers' permits expiring. We keep increasing permanent residents.

That 100K is just in 3 months. We are growing rapidly.

That's 30%, not 30K

It is one of the top 5 issues for ALL Canadians.

Mark Carney should know that it would be an _extremely_ unpopular move right now to allow India more access to immigrate here.

Why not import from a variety of countries to preserve the social fabric? https://preview.redd.it/in-the-first-three-months-of-2025-ca...

What's a "few more" to you?

Look at this chart for example: https://preview.redd.it/in-the-first-three-months-of-2025-ca...

The current Carney govt? Maybe. Too soon to tell, but things are heading in the right direction.

The previous Trudeau govt? Absolutely not. He was the prime minister of everyone except Canadians.

Canada is embarking on a trade agreement with India and collectively our greatest fear is the immigration issue. Canada's immigration is already quite lop-sided.

Even easier to communicate if they stay in their own country among their own people with a shared background

Yes, you got it right. Prioritize locals.

As an IT worker, I honestly don't see many/any Cubans and Latinos in my day to day.

However I do see a ton, and I mean a ton of Indians and their hiring practices. Hence why I started my sentence with "I have personally witnessed it"

What if they're bringing the average salary down for everyone else because they can, thanks to h1b?

I love it.

Was never a fan of this president, but I strongly agree with this directive.

American jobs for Americans!!

Because they bring their racism here. https://www.npr.org/2020/10/12/922936053/california-workplac...

I have personally witnessed it myself. I have countless Indian friend who are candid with me. They are biased against whole communities. Blacks, Muslims, etc.

Indians hire Indians.

To be fair, buying Instagram so early + WhatsApp were great moves too.

The world leaders are not doing enough to end this genocide. Where are the sanctions? Where is the pressure to end this? Just empty words.

The oppressors have free reign without serious consequences.

Brampton, Thorncliff, Scarborough, etc. There's no shortage of immigrant heavy neighborhoods.

Heck, I'm in Durham and the demographics are changing rapidly.

For non-Canadians, this may be hard to comprehend how quickly the demographics have shifted, but the Indians are here in person. No need to send the order to a call center in India. We have that many.

Canadian banks, telecoms, and even retail chains, have been shamelessly replacing Canadian workers with Indians for decades.

At this point, a plurality of our new immigrants come from one or two states in India.

I would challenge you to go to a coffee shop in any major city and try to find a Canadian worker.

Not sure what the future is for a Canadian worker, but it's bleak.
