As the Trump administration is expected to overhaul America's immigration system, some policymakers suggest looking north to Canada. That's because Canadians see immigration as critical to their economic success. The nation has invited in so many immigrants that today, one-fifth of the population is foreign-born. Yet Canadians don't seem to wrestle with anti-immigrant nativism that has erupted in the U.S. and Europe. In Toronto, scanning a business directory shows how multicultural the city is: the Association of Bulgarian Engineers, the Canadian Network of Iranian Architects, the Association of Filipino Canadian Accountants. Half the population was born under another flag.

I heard this on the radio this morning. Total BS.

Getting Canadian citizenship is very easy. As a result of this the system is being massively abused. For example, one can become a permanent resident while still a student under a skilled worker category. Then citizen shortly after that. Then they leave Canada to live and work abroad; the Candian passport is an insurance if something goes wrong (check Canada evacuating "Canadians" form Lebanon and other middle eastern countries). Or to send their children to study nearly-free there. Or get free medical care when they need it.

Canada will eventually have serious problems based on ethnic conflicts.

The Standing Senate Committee on National Security and Defence has released a report that sheds light on the woeful inadequacy of Canadas immigrant screening.

According to the CBSA, when Nicola entered Canada, his passport and visa application listed his birth date as November 1998. But when he applied for a U.S. visitor visa in April, his fingerprints matched an individual who had already applied for a U.S. visa in 2007 with a birth date of November 1986, the CBSA alleges.

Canada pays to import jihadis and does not screen them properly, then pays to deport some of them after they've been in country for years. Apparently, tovbot's quoted source can't even do arithmetic:

Half the population was born under another flag.

Either 30% of Canadians are born at foreign embassies, or the government of Canada doesn't know where a third of the population came from. I suspect the latter is more likely.

You don't know this - check the facts, and I have 3 passports (my children 4).
