Canada immigration levels: still too high?

📝 DESCRIPTION
Canada immigration levels: still too high?
Canada immigration levels: still too high?—that’s what a November poll tells us, with 54 percent of Canadians uneasy even after federal cuts to 395,000 newcomers in 2025. Despite the reduction, international migration remains the chief driver of population growth, tipping the balance against natural increase and raising real concerns about housing, healthcare, and labour-market pressure.

In this video, we unpack the tightrope Canada walks: balancing economic necessity with civic capacity, and efficiency with democratic consent. We explore how immigration targets intersect with sustainable planning—and why surveys show many Canadians feel unheard. It’s a raw ethical question: do numbers matter if public trust erodes?

We’ll examine the shifting 2026–28 targets, the steep rise in asylum claims, and policy misalignment with housing and healthcare readiness. Above all, it’s about responsibility—shared between government, newcomers, and citizens navigating change.

What role should public sentiment play in setting targets? How do we reconcile moral imperative to welcome with practical pressures on infrastructure?
Will transparent dialogue and community-based planning restore trust—and what’s your view on the right level?
