You have alot of nerve commmenting on where I get my wage from. I am not a racist as you would have me painted. What is wrong with suggesting that only the best be allowed in. What good does it do the economy to allow people to enter and then go on the dole? We are all from immigrant stock. My grand parents came from France and Britain. They got no hand outs. they worked their proverbial asses off and where the victims of racial slurs esp my British ones who lived for a time in BC.. I get paid sir for the job I do and I do it well. I have been at it many years. I have seen the deterioration of the system and I know where the problem lies. So I am racist because I say what many feel but dont say because of the political correctness.
I do not have a problem with immigrants or immigration. If you work and contribute good on you. If you immigrate here because of the so called milk and honey and a free ride then sorry no! so whats the problem.

Immigration didnt stop the day after your parents showed up in Canada,how about giving the rest of new Canadians the same chance your folks had?

You like to switch all the time and use what you call patriotism as a means to justify your hatred for immigrants,that's fine but some of us see through the bullshit for what it is.

You called it racism,I didnt.

it has become an obsession.

i'm offended by immigration.

the traitors want to sell out this country cheap.
let's say NO to Mr. Immigration Minister!

Paleoconservative, bah awawwww!!!

You want to stop immigration?

Well there is this little abandon oil rig off the shore of the UK for sale. The Principality of Sealand.

You could buy it and move there, then run your own little country and create your own immigration laws and whatever else "people like you do, burn crosses, whatever".

I am sure you will not be missed here in Canada, so don't let the door hit you in the ass on your way out to your new home.

Apply for the visa at the same time, just like now? Do you have ANY clue how it works?

Yes, I've seen this country, it is already developed, there is no need for further development, therefore no need for more people, unless if you want to reduce it to a developing country.

It is big, but most of it is useless land near the arctic.
Why do most the people live close to the US border?

Think Greenland.
Is Greenland big? Does it have an immigration system? Answer me.

Do you envy China? Even if you do, they didn't get their population through immigration though.

The Chinese Communists actually exploit their big population like slaves. Many common Chinese labourers work 16 hours a day, risking their lives in their 'mining industry', getting environment polluted so badly, burning so much fossil fuel in transporting goods across oceans to Wal Marts etc., till Arctic Ice started melting. I guess this may not be something you want.

Oh please...rant about the chinese and communists all you want, thats got zero to do with the fact that bigger population means more power. And wtf...Greenland?? What are you on about there? Did you even read my post?

Anyway its funny how our economy is pound for pound one of the most powerful in the world and we have been that way for about the same amount of time that we've had an open arms policy to immigrants. Hmmmm...interesting.

But please tell me more about how much China sucks.

I'm starting a fund to get OhGarfield a mail order bride. Feel free to chip in some money.

[Brenda]

I would chip in if you would get him a one way ticket to China...

Mail order brides are not the girls we want in this country

er, Brenda you've read up on the immigration process, you've been through it, and in Canada family reunification is wives, children and parents. There is no points for nephews and that. No one, no Canadian, is going to stop you from bring in your own damn children. I don't get your post.

You can sponsor your nephews just as easily. I have (well, hubby has) an aunt in Canada. It is the sister of his mother. Moved here in the 50's. If we would have asked her to, and she was willing to fill out the forms, we could have immigrated via family class.

I had seen the woman once. So did hubby. It happens. LOTS.

Family class of imm has changed and your comment is not accurate.

Under the family class you can only sponsor a direct blood relative in your IMMEDIATE family. This does NOT include say, brothers, sisters etc unless you can PROVE they are your dependents.

Hence, your comments are not correct.

Hell, I want more immigration, not less. The country's still pretty damned empty. I'd just they make it mandatory that have to live in cities other than Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal for the first 5 years. I'd also deport any immigrant convicted of a violent crime (after they got here).

I like this approach. The real kick in the nuts is this, as a permanent resident under law, you CAN be deported if convicted of a criminal code offense. But rarely are people kicked out. It just needs to be enforced.

Make it a one way ticket then.

No, it is not empty. There are trees and wild animals. I'd rather have more trees and wilderness.

Then go live in the mountains. Canada was built on immigration right from the beginning.

You can sponsor:

parents

grandparents

brothers or sisters, nephews or nieces, granddaughters or grandsons who are orphaned, under 18 years of age and not married or in a common-law relationship
another relative of any age or relationship if none of the above relatives could be sponsored, and you have no other relatives who are Canadian citizens, persons registered as Indians under the Indian Act or permanent residents and

accompanying relatives of the above (for example, spouse, partner and dependent children).

You explain to me what the use is to sponsor grandparents or parents?

As far as I can tell, brothers and sisters are Immediate family. Extended is grand-parents, cousins, in-laws and the like.

But I'm going to shoot at this Greenland business. Greenland is a country, it isn't that big and as a country I can only assume it has an immigration policy.
