Juno News - Mass immigration is DESTROYING Canada's economy

00:00:00.000 being able to welcome in people from around the world particularly at this time of labor shortages

00:00:04.320 is good for our country these immigration levels allow us to bring in the skills and 0.93

00:00:09.280 talent we need to fill the labor gaps we're seeing right across the country the impacts

00:00:13.520 of the labor shortage we need more people canadians understand the need to continue

00:00:17.600 to grow our population if we're going to meet the needs of the labor force

00:00:20.240 viral videos showing thousands of temporary foreign workers and international students

00:00:31.600 queuing up for minimum wage jobs in this country have exposed one of the most often repeated talking

00:00:38.000 points from the federal government and from justin trudeau as to why canada must embark on this path

00:00:44.000 of reckless mass immigration why we must import millions of people into this country at such a 0.99

00:00:50.560 fast pace that being of course that canada suffers from a crucial labor shortage that must be filled

00:00:56.480 by foreigners because canadians aren't willing to take on these low-skilled jobs being able to welcome 1.00

00:01:02.880 in people from around the world particularly at this time of labor shortages is good for our country

00:01:07.600 these immigration levels allow us to bring in the skills and talent we need to fill the labor gaps

00:01:13.280 we're seeing right across the country the impacts of the labor shortage that we have whether it's

00:01:17.440 in our health care system uh whether it's small businesses that can't stay open seven days a week

00:01:22.000 like they'd want to we need more people canadians understand the need to continue to grow our

00:01:26.480 population if we're going to meet the needs of the labor force and it's hard to find workers

00:01:30.640 the reality is you don't need to dig into the stats to understand that there was a million jobs

00:01:35.920 available in the canadian economy you need to walk down main street of any community in canada

00:01:39.840 you're going to see help wanted signs in the window know if that really were the case and

00:01:43.360 it wasn't just some cooked up political talking point by government and corporations who benefit

00:01:48.480 from an endless supply of cheap foreign labor then we really shouldn't be seeing videos of thousands

00:01:53.200 of people trying to get a handful of grocery store minimum wage jobs if there was such a labor shortage

00:01:59.040 then there would be plenty of jobs to go around for these people but that isn't the case and we know

00:02:03.360 that isn't the case because the videos are there for us all to see the other argument that the federal

00:02:08.000 government likes to constantly repeat is that immigrants temporary foreign workers and

00:02:12.960 international students will help boost our economy they will help launch canada's economy forward

00:02:18.240 well the data is in and it turns out actually that since canada has embarked on this policy of mass

00:02:23.440 immigration canadians have gotten poorer real gdp per capita has decreased over the past three years

00:02:29.920 and in fact over the past six years it hasn't increased at all it's remained the exact same you

00:02:34.960 didn't need the data to know that life has become more miserable year after year over the past four

00:02:39.280 or five years but now we have it and it shows that actually everything we've been told about why

00:02:44.480 canada must accept such radical and transformational change into our country permanent and irreversible

00:02:50.560 change by way of mass immigration isn't true so what is the motivation behind this why has canada

00:02:57.040 embarked on this reckless path of mass immigration faster than any other country in the western world 1.00

00:03:03.040 well it's not borne out by statistics so who really knows before we get into the show drop a

00:03:07.600 like in the video help us up with subscribing to the true north youtube channel and that is the common

00:03:11.600 question why has canada embarked on this mass immigration path let me know your answer in the

00:03:17.600 comments below and let's get into it take a look at this video posted to social media last week

00:03:23.200 of a job fair for a minimum wage job in toronto there has to be at least a thousand people looking for

00:03:30.720 a job here and the line goes on for as far as the eye can see these people knock out the memo that

00:03:36.960 there's some sort of labor shortage in this country and their very important and valuable skills are

00:03:41.600 needed across the canadian economy that's weird right because i'm pretty sure the federal government

00:03:45.920 constantly tells us that there's a labor shortage in this country same thing just a week before

00:03:51.200 outside of toronto's pearson international airport look at all these people lining up for a minimum wage

00:03:58.320 job for a low skill job at the airport in fact it turns out that at this pearson international

00:04:04.400 job fair for minimum wage jobs low skill jobs of course there were so many people who applied for a

00:04:11.440 job that they had to shut off the job fair they had to basically say no more we can't we can't take all

00:04:16.240 the applicants half of you just have to go home and go to the next job fair i guess again they shouldn't

00:04:21.760 worry right because the federal government constantly tells us there's a labor shortage i'm sure there are

00:04:26.080 plenty of manual labor low skill jobs to go around now just down the road from the airport at mississauga

00:04:32.000 there was this massive lineup from international students looking for a minimum wage job at a

00:04:38.160 restaurant imagine being the restaurant and opening up a job and seeing hundreds of people lining up to

00:04:45.680 take that one job well that's what this is this is real life this is mississauga last week and the guy

00:04:50.960 who films this video goes up to them and asks them what the best country in the world is guys what's

00:04:55.680 the best country in the world canada no no canada isn't canada so great aren't aren't you pleased to

00:05:07.360 be lining up at a mississauga restaurant for a minimum wage job i'm sure this is exactly what you

00:05:12.000 thought was going to happen when you came to this country to study at one of our esteemed colleges

00:05:17.120 last summer for a mcdonald's job fair in kitchener ontario there were at least 300 international

00:05:25.280 students and what appears to be temporary foreign workers applying for a mcdonald's job in kitchener

00:05:31.600 think about that for a minute and what about this video from the fall of last year showing a massive

00:05:38.400 lineup for a job at a food basics in brampton a grocery store job again these jobs should be going

00:05:46.240 to young canadians they should be for entry level canadian kids in high school maybe in university

00:05:52.560 as a part-time job to help build up their skills it should also be for maybe elderly canadians who

00:05:58.560 want a job to be able to help their community these are not supposed to be jobs that go to international

00:06:03.280 students who by the way are supposed to come to this country and sustain themselves but take a look at

00:06:08.560 this lineup and tell me who you think these people are if you think that they are local canadian high

00:06:14.080 school students or perhaps international students studying in this country now the reality is we can

00:06:19.920 beat around the bush or we can just be completely honest in almost all of these videos for minimum

00:06:24.480 wage low skill jobs these massive lineups for job fairs basically 90 of the people lining up for these

00:06:31.600 jobs are indian they're international students quite clearly you've also likely noticed this in your

00:06:37.200 local tim hortons or your local grocery store whether you live in a small city or a big city especially in

00:06:42.640 ontario tim hortons and grocery store jobs are not supposed to sustain you when you live in this

00:06:47.600 country if you come from a different country canada should be importing people with skills with lots of

00:06:54.320 skills to help contribute to our economy but instead it appears from what we can see on video on tape that

00:07:00.480 that is not the case that we are in fact importing millions of people with low skills which will then of

00:07:06.560 course suppress wages for low skilled canadian workers that's not me making that assumption

00:07:12.240 that's an assumption that has been made by many economists before in 2022 in a globe and mail op-ed

00:07:17.600 this point was raised directly that increasing the temporary foreign worker program and of course

00:07:23.200 allowing international students to work a limited number of hours will contribute to suppressing wages

00:07:30.080 what's the easiest way to tell if your people are getting richer or getting poorer well gdp per capita

00:07:36.000 is a good place to start as we all know canada's gdp has increased because we've been importing

00:07:41.840 millions of people into our country but gdp per capita and in fact real gdp per capita which factors in

00:07:49.120 inflation shows a completely opposite picture new data shows that canada's real gdp per capita is

00:07:56.720 dropping two percent annually economics professor michael scudderud has said that canada hasn't experienced

00:08:03.280 any economic growth for the past six years so zero economic growth for the past six years despite

00:08:10.160 the federal government embarking on an irreversible path of mass immigration growing canada's population 0.87

00:08:16.480 at record pace and you want to see something that will really freak you out take a look at this graph

00:08:22.640 canada's year-over-year population change compared to that of the united states now does that graph look

00:08:30.080 normal to any of you or perhaps does that say that something might be a little off a little broken

00:08:36.400 with this system that population growth according to bmo's chief economist spells very bad news for

00:08:43.600 young canadians according to douglas porter the chief economist at the bank of montreal we have never

00:08:49.200 seen the young adult population growing anywhere nearly this fast before in the near term this puts

00:08:55.200 pressure on rents in the medium term it will put pressure on home prices no blame just fact

00:09:01.520 according to the vancouver sun this squeeze being felt by young canadians is entirely caused by justin

00:09:07.760 trudeau's immigration policies it's fueled almost entirely by ottawa's immigration policy which welcomed

00:09:13.760 a record 1.3 million permanent residents international students and guest workers in the one-year period up to

00:09:20.640 september of last year the largest group among newcomers are young adults there's no way for anyone to live 1.00

00:09:26.320 anymore in this country the prospect of canadians living in the cities they grew up in is gone and of course that

00:09:32.640 has significant knock-on effects for society canadians not getting married at the rate they used to canadians not having

00:09:39.760 large families most canadians not having kids at all national bank economist stéphane marion and alexandra ducharme

00:09:46.640 say that canada's annual population increase should not exceed 500 000 well guess what canada's population

00:09:55.200 is growing at well over a million every year canadians are absolutely right to be distressed

00:09:59.840 about the fact that their population is rapidly increasing faster than anywhere else basically in

00:10:04.800 the world canadian values and canadian culture become eroded when you import millions of people a year 1.00

00:10:10.720 from countries with completely opposite values and cultures that is just a fact whether you like it or

00:10:16.320 not what justin trudeau is embarking on with mass immigration is completely reckless and no matter

00:10:22.800 what they say it is not racist to oppose it all right everyone that's going to do it for us today

00:10:28.480 on the show thank you so much for tuning in my name is harrison faulkner and this is ratio
