“The government brought in too many low-skilled immigrants too fast, which has strained housing, schools, and health care. Does the minister support letting provinces have more control over immigration so they can lower the numbers and put their own residents first for jobs?”
“Mr. Chair, the Liberals’ policy of bringing in too many low-skilled non-citizens too fast meant that public services that provinces maintain, such as social welfare, subsidized housing, health care and primary education, have become strained. Does the minister support giving the provinces that want it greater control over immigration for the purpose of decreasing immigration to more sustainable levels, prioritizing economic migration and giving their own residents first priority for new job opportunities?”
