In this episode of Dominion Society Live Stream, I chat with Greg Wycliffe about immigration, the budget, Remembrance day, and why you should become a Canadian citizen if you're not born in Canada. We also get into the controversial comments made by a Canadian high school class about being a "Canadian citizen."
00:10:14.020Like, and they like to make these weird kind of frameworks where Canadian-ness can be given and revoked and that it's some terrible thing to point out that someone's not Canadian.
00:10:31.220um but it's kind of ironic that they're that they're kind of response or their punishment
00:10:36.580is to try and make it so that you or i are not canadian yeah absolutely and when and when you
00:10:42.960kind of look to the states and like kind of where they are at with the conversation you know people
00:10:47.600talk about h1b visas trump is almost like selling american citizenship and and that conversation is
00:10:53.300very much at the fore um but it's almost like they're not as far along in terms of being
00:10:59.660demoralized and like being a nation that's been completely uprooted from their from their history
00:11:04.860and their ancestry here in canada it feels like people have already been demoralized and been
00:11:09.280derooted so like even suggesting actually no this is a historical canadian it's like no it's not
00:11:14.380this this is what being a canadian is it's about values it's about maple syrup and it's like
00:11:18.980what are you talking about like you know you're these people are flailing around and kind of just
00:11:23.740grabbing all these like ideas which basically amount to indoctrination that's been around for
00:11:28.140the past 20 years and it's like that's not what canadian is you're you're grasping at a bunch of
00:11:32.720like uh somewhat treasonous propaganda that's been fed to you over the past 20 years by our
00:11:38.700establishment that prioritizes um cheap labor for you know international large organizations large
00:11:46.960uh large companies large corporations that are just basically selling this country out
00:11:52.340for our natural resources yeah yeah yeah and i mean i i think americans have a bit more of a
00:11:58.580positive identity uh to them they have that more of an entrenched kind of patriotism in their
00:12:04.180culture whereas like if we go back to the the kind of molson canadian uh style uh beer ad
00:12:11.660culturalism uh these people uh think that to be canadian is to to to be multiculturalism and to
00:12:19.680uh and to challenge that is is some is uh is a is slaying some sort of sacred cow uh but the
00:12:27.160reality is we have a long history in the in this country and there there are ethnic realities to
00:12:32.420to to our heritage um and i don't think it's a offensive to point that out in fact i think it's
00:12:38.580kind of been offensive to to ignore that for the last kind of five decades um and that's to say like
00:12:45.220i feel like what's happening right now kind of is normal like it's normal that you you know you've
00:12:51.140started the dominion society you're presenting these ideas which is like calling back to a very
00:12:55.880important you know historical facts and just like realities about what about what makes a nation
00:13:01.040and it's normal in that like all these people are like flailing around freaking out it's like it's
00:13:05.500okay like you're not used to this stuff like you've been you've been indoctrinated for decades
00:13:09.500now on this we get it i know i know calm down calm down here's a lollipop here's a here's a
00:13:15.200here's a green dominion society lollipop for you to suck on um you know you can keep swearing at
00:13:22.100us and calling us names it kind of kind of makes you look bad but you know be my guest um my favorite
00:13:28.240is when these uh these these white immigrants come up and they try and they try and head us off as if
00:13:34.440they have some sort of uh uh armor because they they're they're they're white or something and
00:13:41.320they come up and they're like well i'm a canadian and then i can go and search through their profile
00:13:45.940and i find all these things all these previous posts of them proudly saying they're they're
00:13:51.400swiss or they're norwegian and all these things like all these people know that they have an
00:13:57.080ethnicity that that is not canadian and they're in fact most of them are very proud to be polish
00:14:02.600norwegian and so on but they're also canadian and it's like that doesn't actually make sense like
00:14:08.660you have an ethnicity based off of your lineage we have our own ethnicity here you immigrated here
00:14:15.880you're not actually Canadian you're an immigrant that's fine be proud of that be proud of your
00:14:22.280culture that's that's all well and good but don't try and steal ours and try and you know warp it
00:14:28.240into something that it's not just to fit your own purposes like I don't care if you're you're an
00:14:33.280indian or norwegian uh either way you're an immigrant you're not canadian and don't try and
00:14:39.440twist our identity into something else and i'm just thinking it's such a weird sort of like
00:14:44.520like what are these people being proudful about really like when it's kind of directed at you or
00:14:51.120at dominion society's like ideas of what a real canadian is it's like well no well i'm a canadian
00:14:55.620too it's like well what are you being proud of you're being proud of the fact that canada is
00:15:00.540just like this uh bus stop that anyone can show up to and become a part of like don't you see how
00:15:07.800this is kind of part of the problem of how our quality of life is declining maybe it's because
00:15:13.720we don't have any sort of core identity that's being championed by the people who are in charge
00:15:18.140maybe it's because our institutions have failed so miserably you know and it's like again it's
00:15:24.120normal it's like we are trying to help dominion society is trying to help by reasserting our
00:15:28.860identity and who we are. It's very simple. Um, but it's funny how people will come in and say
00:15:33.840like, no, no, no, I'm a Canadian too. And it's like, no, uh, no, you're not. Okay. No, you're
00:15:39.460not. There's a specific thing that a Canadian is. You need to respect our history at the very
00:15:43.680at the very minimum. And maybe then we can start prioritizing, um, you know, improving the
00:15:50.340situation in the country. Cause you need to first distinguish like who is part of the country and
00:15:54.440who is not. Right. Because you have to be somewhat exclusive. Like, that's just going to be the
00:16:01.940reality of things. And there's some people that that want to push back on how we're how we're
00:16:07.880doing things. They they they think it's too harsh. They don't like the the our rhetoric or the way
00:16:13.780that we're we're promoting things. They don't want to talk about ethnicity. They don't they think
00:16:19.860that we can maintain some i was having an argument with another guy today on on twitter and he's
00:16:25.800putting forward that we need to be like singapore and have some sort of authoritarian state to
00:16:30.640maintain multi multi-racialism multiculturalism and and like it just seems very very bizarre like
00:16:39.600at the end of the day like that is accepting liberalism at its core to to um to to accept
00:16:49.060multiculturalism multi-racialism in our society like to to put our foot down and say we know what
00:16:54.180a canadian is um and what it isn't is is kind of the ultimate uh rejection of kind of liberalism
00:17:02.240but i think one of the the weirdest figures in in canadian politics that's coming out of
00:17:07.140that comes up every once in a while is is dean blendell gosh and like it's weird like i remember
00:17:14.100i grew up in toronto you did as well i i remember 102 won the edge dean blundell he was the edgelord
00:17:21.680comedian of what like 2007 2008 something like this dean what happened man what happened yeah
00:17:27.900i remember listening to him on the radio uh when i was in the shower before going to school growing
00:17:33.620up and now he's trying to bully me on the internet yeah he's uh it's i it's it's really
00:17:42.620strange because i remember him coming up on my feet a lot during covid and he just he would
00:17:48.340always have this like really vicious vile voice and tone on twitter like attacking anti-vaxxers
00:17:56.020or essentially almost all the time anybody who challenges like state narratives like like
00:18:02.840narratives from the government and uh it's i've always felt it feels really inorganic and like i
00:18:09.760don't want to just kind of go there but but it's always like is like are you down on your luck
00:18:14.280you've run out of media jobs so now you're kind of doing this unofficial like cryptically shilling
00:18:20.560state narratives and like that's your job now like it like i don't know how else to understand
00:18:25.960his popularity where his opinions come from it's all it's all very clunky and odd like anytime that
00:18:33.080i try to watch his show i'm always like who is this for like who is who is watching this i don't
00:18:39.000understand um he's like this type that like thinks they're edgy punk but like they're literally just
00:18:46.520representing the system like they like they've lost the the real core bro i got my booster you
00:18:53.460didn't get your booster bro what the hell bro you're just an anti-vaxxer grandma killer yeah
00:18:59.420and it's like i'm coming over here with with a suit on and but like i somehow have a more punk
00:19:04.380attitude than dean blundell uh oh i see i'm remembering now you you sent me a link to this
00:19:10.300the other night dude this is this this is gross bro is exactly bro is a bro dean has revealed to
00:19:16.580us that he is for sure a gooner he is definitely a pornography like you guys know how i do it like
00:19:23.400i try and keep things pretty professional pretty simple pretty direct we might have a kind of
00:19:28.300controversial message but we try and uh we try and communicate it in a very clear and professional
00:19:34.480way and it's not just to correct that it's not controversial it's controversial given the status
00:19:40.600quo it's controversial in this very liberal environment we live in our what we're promoting
00:19:45.600at dominion society is not actually radical whatsoever it's actually like normal for any
00:19:50.060self-respecting country anyway yeah no i i completely agree but this guy comes on our
00:19:55.500posts and he starts calling me a chronic masturbating incel and it's like do and trying
00:20:01.400to challenge me to a debate at the same time it's like i i don't know if we can have a debate dean
00:20:06.820if you're just gonna start talking about uh like my mom being a whore like yeah can you bring that
00:20:14.460back up can you bring that back up i kind of want to read it in in his character voice um
00:20:21.180oh daniel you little chronic masturbating incel you get it from somewhere probably your dad or
00:20:29.680maybe your mom is a single mom who you were too close to but your fear of people of color becoming
00:20:35.020canadian and radicalized hatred of people who don't look like you is a tell like your hatred
00:20:40.120of the lgbtq community is a tell that you would love to live with a man a white man but a man
00:20:46.300daniel and that okay like send send tweet like you're not you're not pure you're not reading
00:20:53.440that back and being like huh do i come across like an unhinged like you and well done to you
00:21:02.420like you are really hitting nerves you're really hitting nerves with some of your tweets it's like
00:21:06.300people are kind of going off the handle and it's uh you love to see it you love to see it um what
00:21:12.600exact sorry what exactly triggered this again this was from the the the school photo where you said
00:21:17.860like you can't just become a canadian right is that what triggered that yeah well i i posted that
00:21:23.440and i just like wasn't even paying attention to it and like the next day two days later i was
00:21:29.020scrolling through some of the responses and i i responded to a couple of them and i made some
00:21:33.320basic statements that were like canada is not something you can become attempts to integrate
00:21:39.400are good but our classrooms should not be completely filled with foreigners and that's
00:21:44.920when i really started to get on people's nerves um that statement that you can't become canadian
00:21:50.840really set them off so that's when dean dean started uh attacking me uh and then i called
00:21:59.220him a leftist and he didn't like that either and he he really got incensed um but i don't know what
00:22:05.400else to call him uh i mean other than a pervert and a moron but uh politically speaking uh leftist
00:22:12.500seems seems appropriate to me it's it's so it's so sad it's almost like i'm trying to think of
00:22:18.940an analogy it's almost like maybe it's like a rescue dog you know like a rescue dog is like
00:22:22.740super traumatized and they're all like messed up like when you get a rescue dog sometimes there's
00:22:26.900rescue dogs that have been traumatized poor old dean like really went through cancel culture
00:22:31.680before cancel culture was a thing for those who don't know he was on 102 on the edge he made some
00:22:36.260joke about gay people and he mentioned like something to do with aids or hiv and uh and then
00:22:43.340he got like canceled for that like back in the early before 2010 i think before cancel culture
00:22:48.300was a thing and you know he's fully traumatized he's like this traumatized dog now that like
00:22:53.420doesn't work properly anymore it's a sad it's sad it's sad to see come back to us dean come back to
00:22:58.440us you know you can still be funny again there is hope you just gotta you know instead of rejecting
00:23:04.680and sort of like realizing what the cancel culture was it's almost like he's adopted all of these
00:23:08.860ideals that canceled him as if like that's what is correct and it's like no bro no bro it's actually
00:23:15.160for a political agenda to pacify and pussify uh men specifically so they don't um say the truth
00:23:22.240because if you haven't noticed telling the truth these days especially it's going to be racist
00:23:28.200it's going to be sexist it's going to be homophobic it's going to be anti-semitic it's going to be
00:23:32.040transphobic uh that's kind of why the cancel culture has become such a big thing it's to
00:23:37.240silence people for not saying the truth so i thought that this is pretty obvious to anyone
00:23:43.080who's watching but it's like you know um maybe we'll send this clip to dean to try and rehabilitate
00:23:47.880him i'm sure that'll set him off and then he won't work that'll work for sure yeah
00:23:54.120here's a real question here's a real question are you going to debate dean are you going to
00:24:00.600debate dean about whether you're an incel or not uh that's probably below you to be honest that
00:24:05.480would probably just i don't know what do you guys think i think it could be it could be fun but i
00:24:09.400don't think we could stay on the issues i'm kind of an issues focused dude i don't want to start
00:24:14.280slinging mud and talking calling me you know charlie mcguner like is that is that good content
00:24:20.520do you guys want to see that i could definitely put him in the dumpster it'd be fun to talk about
00:24:24.920immigration and see him trying to twist himself into pretzels to to justify canada transforming
00:24:30.920into india yeah i think if it was a neutral ground it'd be great content but i but i think if he tried
00:24:37.160to get you to come on his uh channel or whatever i think it would be really bad because he'd probably
00:24:43.240mess with you i think i've seen him do that before too where he brings people on and then like he'll
00:24:47.080like mute them and all this like nonsense and it's like this is just stupid uh but if it was
00:24:53.480boxing match okay okay um incel eh yeah yeah the fact that he brought up your mother being
00:25:04.680a prostitute and how he like slept with your mom it's like dude what grade are you in what
00:25:09.640grade are you in like we're talking about a serious political topic and this guy is like
00:25:14.680i slept with your mom dude and it's like aren't you like in your 50s doing shrooms all the time
00:25:21.320like what's going on here what uh what happened dean we we gotta move on we gotta stop talking
00:25:28.120about dean though we gotta be so true so we got some responses as well from guys like jonathan k
00:25:34.760who writes for the national post and quillette and stuff andrew coin jumped on it um all sorts of
00:25:43.000all sorts of fun people but i think the the funnier one happened today um a bit of a delayed
00:25:51.960response i'd say when uh uh a fellow uh uh a dude i had never heard of to be totally honest
00:26:01.560uh who works with the mcdonald laurier institute which is one of canada's premier think tanks
00:26:07.000a harvard educated lawyer um jumps on my post and maybe you want to read this one too
00:26:14.500when you're in your nice uh mocking tone but cave sharrouz jumps on our post and he says
00:26:23.140you're right you're right a true canadian might be too polite to say fuck you daniel tyree you're
00:26:32.780racist piece of shit. You're a piece of garbage who has done nothing with his life and wants to
00:26:37.320blame his failures on non-white people. But I'm an immigrant and have no problem saying it.
00:26:44.060Damn. So again, a very bizarre response. But I think it really proves our point. Like this guy
00:26:51.720does not act very Canadian, not very polite. He accepts that he's not a Canadian. In fact,
00:26:58.520he uses it to justify his poor behavior. But what I find really shocking about this is his
00:27:05.600background. Like this guy's a Harvard educated lawyer. He works for a premier kind of conservative
00:27:11.880think tank, the McDonnell Laurier Institute. And here he is on our posts, crashing out and
00:27:19.180and you know cursing and and calling people names um but i think it's uh i i think this is going to
00:27:28.940be representative of something that we're going to see a lot more and i think we're going to see it
00:27:32.560like this i think we're going to see it in more subversive and nefarious ways whisper campaigns
00:27:38.980behind the scenes i think that a lot of these existing conservative think tanks are going to
00:27:45.820be increasingly threatened by dominion society um because one we're we're sort of in competition
00:27:52.360for them we're going to be seeking out the same kind of support for for for members and donors
00:27:57.400and so on as we look to accomplish our mission um but also the the we're going against the grain
00:28:04.980not only ideologically but stylistically we're kind of like the new kids on the block to be
00:28:10.060honest. And we do things very differently than traditional think tanks. Obviously, we have
00:28:16.020a very different kind of style on social media. We are looking to produce all sorts of very like
00:28:24.240think tank style studies and products like that. But we also have a very modern, casual, fun kind
00:28:33.340of social media style. And I think that these traditional actors, these kind of old fogies are
00:28:39.920going to think it's absolutely unacceptable. They're not going to like the way that we tweet
00:28:44.260and the way that we make fun of things and our brash language, talking like normal people
00:28:52.960and producing popular short form content. They're going to be jealous because they've always wanted
00:28:59.300to get this sort of attention, but they don't know how to use social media. So they haven't
00:29:02.840been able to do so. And they're going to react like this, or they're going to react with whisper
00:29:07.680campaigns and trying to cancel us behind the scenes. But the reality is we're going to keep
00:29:12.260growing because we have a strong message that resonates with people. We're very effective at
00:29:17.520using social media and getting a lot of eyeballs on our ideas and our content.
00:29:23.000And it's just going to, they're just going to have to deal with it. We're not going anywhere,
00:29:27.420but, but up. Uh, can I share my screen? I don't know if that works, but, uh,
00:29:36.620send me it can you see that yeah um i saw this and started smiling this is the same guy kevin
00:29:44.620cavay sharrouz daniel thinks should be handed to him because he's of european stock meanwhile
00:29:51.260immigrants outwork him and win so daniel is sad that he can't get a job and women won't
00:29:56.060him this is a harvard educated lawyer that's crazy and then you and then you replied with
00:30:01.980this which i thought was amazing never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake napoleon
00:30:06.380bonaparte this guy has no credibility like he's losing it by the second he he looks like a
00:30:15.580seething loser and like we're just gonna keep plowing on forward uh let them burn themselves
00:30:24.700down and um just just one point uh that i think that you kind of missed which is a little bit more
00:30:31.260uncomfortable for people and that's kind of like this i remember talking to uh i believe it was
00:30:38.620tyler russell years ago and he was telling me about nick fuentes and the groipers way back in 2019
00:30:44.620and i was like a little innocent libertarian back then and he was like greg the rise of tribalism
00:30:51.260is inevitable and that really freaked me out at the time as a libertarian i'm like tribalism
00:30:56.460like what do you mean that's scary but sure enough like five six years later it's like the the we're
00:31:03.340seeing the failure of multiculturalism and we're seeing that like the ugly face of tribalism has
00:31:09.260has reared its ugly head and it's unignorable um and with this reaction from this guy
00:31:16.780you know so any basically that what it says to me this harvard educated lawyer um anybody any
00:31:24.700white person in canada who's going to assert that like canadian ethnicity is a real thing
00:31:30.780and there's a difference between an ethnic canadian historical or heritage canadian and
00:31:34.620a canadian citizen who just got here is indian any white person who actually asserts that
00:31:40.220they're just a racist piece of and you're an intel and you're a loser and it's like wow so
00:31:45.420okay so and any time that a you know white canadian is sort of asserting themselves as
00:31:52.220being part of a tribe with a shared ancestry you basically hate that person and you're going to
00:31:57.260immediately condemn them condemn them and hate on them and find any sort of hurtful hateful language
00:32:03.180to brand them as this vile person it's like wow uh we're really we're really getting into some
00:32:09.260interesting territory here with uh dominion society and it's only what what month month
00:32:13.980three or four geez yeah and and as you said i agree i think we're gonna see a lot of this
00:32:22.200in different versions some more subversive some more open um but uh maybe we'll maybe we'll get
00:32:29.740a nickname for it just add it to the list add it to the hall of the hall of crash out the crash out
00:32:34.940the hall of crash outs yeah we should start printing them out i can hang them up on my wall
00:32:42.020but at the same time um uh like i think this is a uh a promising kind of signal like the
00:32:55.560mcdonald laurier institute they may not like us but they pay they're paying attention to us
00:32:59.800um there's been a couple signals of that but at the same time uh there was another uh op-ed
00:33:06.320today published in the national post that i wanted to talk about uh by anthony coke um and
00:33:13.880most of you are probably unfamiliar with anthony um but he is a kind of cpc operative he was on
00:33:21.500poiliev's leadership team he was uh the kind of press secretary i think during the the transition
00:33:29.120and then he left to work for the conservative party of british columbia uh he was their
00:33:33.480communications director during the provincial election. So he's a pretty, he's a young guy,
00:33:37.720but he's a pretty well-established kind of CPC backroom type of guy. And he published an article
00:33:44.580today to the effect of how conservatives helped the left undermine the West. And he goes through
00:33:52.820and he takes a few international examples of kind of failed right-wing parties in France
00:33:59.820and in Germany, but eventually he does get back to Canada. And I thought this was very interesting
00:34:06.080because this kind of represents an kind of institutional CPC-er adopting our talking
00:34:14.820points. Here it is. He goes on to explain that Brian Mulroney and Stephen Harper played a role
00:34:24.400in the the kind of establishment of multiculturalism and and mass immigration um in canada the press
00:34:32.740progressive conservatives and later the federal conservative party presided over the codification
00:34:36.380and expansion of official multiculturalism a policy that under successive liberal and conservative
00:34:41.440governments alike transformed national identity into something shared uh into something merely
00:34:46.640managed brian mulrooney enshrined multiculturalism into the cornerstone of canadian political
00:34:51.680consensus Stephen Harper though more cautious did little to challenge its assumptions the
00:34:58.740conservatives spoke of integration but funded the same bureaucracies of fragmentation even in
00:35:05.280opposition they supported the immigration policies advanced by the liberal government even though
00:35:09.520when evidence showed integration was faltering and housing health care and wages were suffering
00:35:13.800and let it be said plainly this is not a rejection of immigration blah blah blah he starts he he
00:35:19.900needs to add his pro-immigration cope at the end or else it wouldn't get published in the national
00:35:24.040post um but and while this is kind of frustrating because the national post ignores my emails and
00:35:30.160won't publish my articles it is a representation of the shifting overton window we see these
00:35:36.300kind of cpc swamp monsters more and more willing to to adopt our idea and share them through
00:35:42.660through canada's biggest kind of ostensibly conservative publication this is a massive
00:35:48.320development um like even in the last couple of months uh as the conservative party has been more
00:35:55.840willing to to criticize immigration and multiculturalism they haven't been able to to
00:36:00.960talk about the role that their own party has played in it and they have played an important
00:36:04.560role they they they're just as uh responsible for this so-called immigration consensus as the
00:36:11.360opposition as as the liberal party um but this willingness uh of these kind of you know younger
00:36:20.000kind of conservative new right folks as they're calling themselves um to to grapple with even the
00:36:27.520role that they've played in multiculturalism is a is a is a promising signal yeah it's a good sign
00:36:33.360and and i feel like the the other big win that happened i think a couple months ago or a month
00:36:37.760ago is uh you know at dominion society we were talking about the temporary foreign workers and
00:36:43.040then finally the conservative party is like okay we're gonna do we're gonna do something about the
00:36:46.240temporary foreign workers we're gonna you know disavow it and disagree with it and um i've told
00:36:51.720people this before you know winning is not as glamorous as you might think it is when it comes
00:36:59.600to like the shifting overton window you know like unfortunately michelle rempel finally saying
00:37:05.740something a slightly watered down version of what dominion society is saying that actually is a win
00:37:11.620i know it's not very satisfying but it actually is a win slowly but surely and you mentioned this uh
00:37:17.420this op-ed from somebody who is sort of like a cpc operative i'm starting to adopt our talking
00:37:23.260points but also oh but i really really love immigration at the end like it's not very
00:37:28.280satisfying but it is a sign that things are shifting in that direction they especially with
00:37:33.660just the unignorable consequences of mass immigration and multiculturalism right now.
00:37:40.120It's like, yeah, you have to talk about it. I mean, look around. But it's great to have
00:37:45.980a Dominion Society with our suits on being professional and being like, this is the actual
00:37:51.400North Star that we should be pointing towards. And we're coming for you, Conservative Party.
00:37:56.340So you better get ahead of the game. You better start marching in that direction because that's
00:38:00.220where everyone's going that's where your support's going so uh yeah get in line or uh you know get
00:38:06.580out of the way yeah it's definitely not a massive win it's not time to it's not victory let's pack
00:38:16.500things up let's go home but things are definitely moving in our direction and i think uh the way
00:38:22.060that we're approaching things has really uh sped up this process uh and i'm excited to see where
00:38:28.160where things will be in a few more months as we continue to grow and we continue uh we start to
00:38:32.880build out a volunteer organization we start doing more on the ground activism we we we ramp up our
00:38:39.200our social media uh content production uh we diversify it and start producing more long-form
00:38:45.600content like there's a lot of exciting things coming down the pipe we're really just getting
00:38:50.080started um but we already seem to be having a serious influence over the overall conversation
00:38:56.640um so many more things to come yeah did you want to maybe we could go over some of the news items
00:39:03.700that you think are most important and maybe how the conservative party has responded in a good
00:39:09.260way or hasn't responded in a good way because there was something about this recent budget
00:39:13.260right that's related to immigration numbers i think we should go over that yeah let's do it um
00:39:19.460So in the budget that was released, you know, a week and a half ago, included in that was the new immigration levels plan.
00:39:29.600So we got the projected numbers for the next two years.
00:39:34.760So in it, we saw in a reduction in overall numbers.
00:39:43.540This year, we had about 400K permanent residents.
00:39:46.500they're they're bringing it down to 380 for next year um it's worth noting that uh this is actually
00:39:53.400a bit this is actually a bit higher than what justin trudeau had announced when he was like
00:39:59.820doing that mea culpa about about immigration whether he was trying to keep his job before
00:40:04.460they threw him out i think he had projected 365k for this year so they're bringing it down to 380k
00:40:11.060But if you looked a little bit more carefully below the levels plan, they also provided a pathway to amnesty for 115,000 asylum claimants that are currently being processed and another 33K permanent residents, sorry, temporary foreign workers that they're going to give permanent citizenship to.
00:40:37.240So again, we quickly get up to 500,000 new permanent residents this year.
00:40:43.100On top, they announced another 150K foreign students and 230K foreign workers.
