A majority of Canadians want the country to accept fewer immigrants and temporary residents next year, according to a new Nanos Research survey commissioned by CTV News, as the country continues to grapple with immigration levels and their impact on housing, services and the economy.

The survey found that 52.3 per cent of respondents believe Canada should accept fewer immigrants and temporary residents in 2027, compared with 33.5 per cent who want the numbers to remain about the same.

There were immigration consultants telling people overseas they're guaranteed citizenship if they pay them to apply to a Canadian institution as an international student.

Women were forced into sexual slavery because going back home wasn't a valid option for them. Their family had spent every penny they had to chase a better future in the West for their kid. I'm sure it's still happening but more hush hush after it became obvious that the majority of Canada isn't onboard with such high immigration.

Any and every single conversation on immigration used to be immediately accused of ulterior motives few years ago. We built a permanent underclass of mostly non-white people and you'd get accused of racism if you point out the obvious exploitative nature of our government's policies.
