Tenn doesn't do what tenn does for tenn. tenn does what tenn does because tenn is tenn

I'll see your 320k,

In 2014, 1.3 million foreign-born individuals moved to the United States, an 11 percent increase from 1.2 million in 2013. India was the leading country of origin for new immigrants, with 147,500 arriving in 2014, followed by China with 131,800, Mexico with 130,000, Canada with 41,200, and the Philippines with 40,500.

That's just in one year, and doesn't count the 10-15 million illegals we have.

Wouldnt that be relatively less than Canada though? I mean they have 35.3 million or so, you have 324 million or so? [population numbers]

Funny thing is, they all moved to Richmond BC and bought all our land and changed our signs to display only Cantonese/Mandarin.

Thanks to your skittle-pooping former drama substitute teacher and least qualified prime minister of all time, I hereby decree that Canada deserves 101% of the shit Americans give them. When did I come to decide this? Shortly after this Emmy-deserving speech.
Ladies and gentleamericans, I give you... Justin Trudeau.

Dual Chinese Canadian citizenship. If China falls into chaos you move the family to Canada to wait out the storm.

I don't think these people ever think of themselves as Canadians.

I agree with the 2nd part, they should leave. Quit raising our housing prices making it unaffordable to those who grew up here.

My guess is about half of the lube and tissues Canada uses is due to Tennisace furiously masturbating every time he sees a Canadian flag

OP is trumpeting raw numbers... not adjusted numbers... raw numbers.... so OP loses.

Pretty awesome news to come across. This is the Canadian way.
I trust our system and the fine folk working at citizenship and immigration.

We just need to ensure that we screen folk well and they are here to contribute.

As the saying goes, if it ain't broke then why fix it? Immigrants stimulate the economy and help with our aging population. It really is a no brainer.

Do you agree with Canada's immigration policy? Would you also like to see your country take in record numbers of immigrants ? Isn't it interesting how in other countries there is such a strong backlash against immigrants yet in Canada the policy is so successful?

Canada's immigration process is pretty rigorous but fair. I know someone who went through it. It takes ~1-2 years to go through the process to become a permanent resident (this is for non-refugees - I don't know what they do for refugees). Immigrants go through a background check, health screen, and cultural check (can they adjust to living in Canada where you must be able to speak English or French fluently?). They are interviewed in person by officials, and their job skills are checked to verify they have something to contribute. You can also get in by making some sizable investment, like starting a business that will employ some minimum amount of people.

I think Canada is handling immigration and low birth rates well. It is definitely changing their cultural makeup in cities (a lot more Asian and middle eastern backgrounds vs. white European or native peoples backgrounds). But in this day and age, that's the only way they're going to expand their population and economy.

As a Canadian I'd like to apologize for Bandmintonpro.

Handballexpert doesn't speak for Canadians when he posts his misogynistic and shaming commentary.

Racquetballchamp will be sentenced to walk the sidewalks of Montreal. Anyone who knows of Montreal drivers may not understand this harsh punishment but it is for the National interest.

May God/Allah/Buddha/Satan/Odin/Justin Trudeau have mercy on Squashmajorleaguer's soul.

Most of these guys are probably either ill intentioned non-white or paid per post. Cos i cannot believe they are so far gone otherwise.

[TwistedSkull]

I think if canada is so happy for immigrants they should take more of the single males that rush to Europe...

At this rate? The office of John McCallum probably.

Your clueless touting of his and the PMO's policies make it pretty clear that you have absolutely no fucking idea what's really going on in this country. You haven't educated yourself on anything in this entire time. You parrot the same useless bullshit over and over and over. Clearly you've never worked a day in your life, you live as a sheltered child unaware of the complexities going on around you.

Any person who lauds the idea of this country bringing in the most # of immigrants ever, while it is simultaneously shedding hundreds of thousands of jobs and a youth unemployment rate that is steadily increasing, is clearly fucking retarded.
