Canada’s immigration rate is 7X higher than the U.S. — now PM Carney wants to dial it back. Is it smart policy… or a step too far? Let’s unpack it.
In this episode of Bigger Table, we explore the complexities of Canada's immigration policies and how they contrast with its southern neighbor, the United States. As Canada faces an influx of temporary residents, assessing the implications on housing, healthcare, and urban infrastructure is poignant.
We delve into Prime Minister Mark Carney's new proposal aimed at reducing temporary immigration rates from the current 7.3% to below 5% by 2027. The episode critiques if this is a strategic move or a subtle form of xenophobia, while comparing it with the U.S.'s immigration approach.
This episode is enriched with insights into Canada's current economic and housing challenges and provides highlights from Carney's first press briefing, outlining his plans for the nation's future. Listeners are invited to question whether Canada has been overextending itself or if it's setting a benchmark the rest of the world should strive to reach.
Tune in as Bigger Table continues to invite more voices to the conversation, championing diversity, inclusion, and progress. Don't miss this informative episode as it charts the path of Canada's immigration and economic strategy.
