John --

I joined the People’s Party of Canada (PPC) because it has many policies that align with my personal values and beliefs, one of which is immigration. Canada is now at a crossroad to decide on her future, either to continue as a free and prosperous country or be a vassal state of the United Nations.

I’m not anti-immigration but I’m not for mass immigration either. What I want is legal and properly vetted immigration at the right level. This is my right to have an opinion on immigration as a Canadian. Please don’t be absurd and call me a ‘racist’. I have an immigrant family background too. However, it doesn’t mean to flood Canada with 350,000 immigrants every year as dictated by the United Nations (UN) Global Compact on Migration signed by Justin Trudeau in 2018. The intent of the Global Compact is to legalize mass migration and declare migration a human right. The Compact goes even further as to criminalize migration speech, which means you will be criminally charged if you criticize migration and media outlets could be shut down if they give room to criticism of migration. A People’s Party government will withdraw Canada from the UN Global Compact on Migration. It’s no longer just about immigration. It’s about the right of Canada to be a sovereign nation. It’s also about our people having the right to freedom of speech, freedom of opinion, freedom of press, freedom of expression and freedom of choice. The people of Canada have a right to have an open and free discussion about immigration relating to its merits, standards and the amount. Immigration should be a policy supported by the native population based on their comfort level to enhance a society and to help meet the economic needs of a nation if done properly and correctly. It shouldn’t be used as a tool to destroy the fabric of society and cause social disorder.

By lowering immigration from 350,000 to between 100,000 to 150,000, the People’s Party is being compassionate to immigrants. We want a manageable number to begin with and with a higher proportion (≥50%) of economic immigrants with the right qualification and work experience. We want these immigrants to have jobs when come here to support their family and want them to share our values. Being jobless could create a host of new problems. When they have jobs and share our values, they would be more appreciative of our country and want to be a part of it. They would see a good future in Canada and want to be a willing member of a country that helps them succeed. According to studies done by Eric Kaufmann, a Canadian political scientist, lower immigration will better facilitate and improve integration and the established population will be more welcoming of these newcomers.

At the same time, we also want to be compassionate to fellow Canadians. Having 350,000 immigrants every year for 3 years is equivalent to adding a new Nova Scotia to Canada. Increasing social and economic tensions are foreseeable in our systems at this high level, including healthcare, housing, taxation, education, pension and social programs. Jobs will be another issue, especially in our current state with no pipeline construction due to Bill C-48 and Bill C-69 and the lack of further development in the energy and resource sector. The reality is that there is a limit to Canada’s economy and systems capacity. Thus, the People’s Party proposes 100,000 to 150,000 immigrants annually. It just isn’t logical to overwhelm our economy and systems in such a short period of time. Moreover, time is needed to help newcomers learn about and better understand our society for integration to be successful and for them to call Canada a true ‘home’. The 100,000 - 150,000 number is dynamic and may change depending on Canada’s economic needs and circumstances. An open discussion with Canadians is worthwhile and warranted to determine future immigration levels as we move forward.

My family left communist China and then Vietnam because they wanted freedom in Canada. They wanted to create new dreams and have new hopes in a new country. They wanted to leave the past behind and embark on a brighter future for themselves and their children. The first thing that came to my mother’s mind when she reached Canada was that ‘Canada is (like) heaven on earth’. My family never had expectations of nor imposed obligations on the government when they arrived. They worked very hard to succeed as immigrants in a new home, like many other immigrants of their time, and later became Canadian citizens. They had jobs to support their family. At the time, there were much fewer social programs available to help immigrants. In contrast, there are many more social programs to support the social and economic (financial) needs of the immigrants today and yet, they still complain about inadequacies. Do newcomers feel more entitled now? Living in Canada is a privilege but not everyone appreciates that fact. Earning an income with your own hands is what makes you successful and be considered a valuable participant in society. It is crucial that newcomers embrace our Canadian culture, share our Canadian values and speak our language because that will ease their integration into our society, help them be a net contributor to our economy and overall, they’ll be content.

The People’s Party has a common-sense policy on immigration. That’s why the People’s Party has my unwavering support and it’s the only party capable of steering Canada back on the right path at this critical stage, with Maxime Bernier at the helm. This is our one and only chance to withdraw Canada from the UN Global Compact on Migration, reassert our national sovereignty and regain our freedoms. Canada needs to be united, strong and free again. If you want the same, make sure you place your vote with the People’s Party of Canada for me, Annie Young, in the Mill Woods riding. We need to move in lockstep if we want to win back our country, our future and our children’s future. The People’s Party is the only way to go on October 21 – Vote Annie Young.
