General Discussion

When it comes to housing in Canada I don’t think it was wealthy Indians driving up the prices. In Vancouver and Toronto I think it was primarily those from Hong Kong and mainland china too. This prompted the law last year barring foreign investment in single family homes, if not used for a residence. But yes, there has also been an issue with fraudulent student visas from India, which has also caused a backlash.

There have also been a lot of complaints over lax asylum laws and generous welfare benefits. Not sure of the validity of these arguments, but this has of course been a major problem throughout western countries over the last decade.

Ultimately liberals need to address immigration, especially the illegal type head on. I think Biden likely lost the election within the first several months of his presidency due to the border. It’s a contentious issue, but open borders (or what is perceived to be open borders) is just as much of a killer politically as inflation.
