Proposed cap is a 5% non-permanent resident cap, and a cap of 1% annual population growth (416k). A 14% cut from last years numbers, a 53% increase over 2015.

That’s silly. Canada needs more people, and we will probably be forced to take in people from down south soon enough, if they have a hot/violent summer. We need to build up out of the current crises, not pretend we libe on the moon.
Build up:
Youth unemployment in Toronto is 14%, and we havent even hit recession yet. Im assuming you mean there is a shortage of cheap wage slaves that will live 20 to a basement in a condemnable fire hazard.
But all left leaning parties are in on it now, if there was ever an indication that Canadians politics has been corrupted.
You mean left leaning parties refuse to build their entire movement around using immigrants as a scapegoat for all our problems? I can scarcely believe it.

Wait, so there is a labor shortage despite the unemployment numbers?
This is some MAGA level distrust in our institutions ability to aggregate data.
Yes, there is a massive labour shortage in sectors such as healthcare and the skilled trades: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/transparency/committees/cimm-nov-25-2024/labour-shortages.html
Youth unemployment has to do with the particularities of students looking for temporary jobs in the services sector and the lack of training opportunities https://lmic-cimt.ca/the-state-of-youth-employment-in-canada/ https://policyoptions.irpp.org/magazines/november-2024/youth-employment-opportunities/
I appreciate the statistics, I clearly misunderstood the youth unemployment numbers.
Though I am still curious if its inflation that’s caused the brunt of the labor shortage, given the Phillips curve.
I’m not disputing the data. I’m questioning your beliefs on the cause of the problem and how we should go about solving it.
