We'll take them up here in Canada instead, thanks. You're welcome too!

Are we, really? I've several times read accounts about how hard it is for Europeans to migrate to Canada. Many accounts specifically relate to social status - single men having much worse results than single women, or couples migrating together.

Can you share more about these accounts? I've never heard of single men vs women having a harder time, but I don't know many Europeans who've emigrated to Canada recently.

The elite in Canada want people from countries who have lower work environment expectations.

Over the last 5 years Canada has taken in hundreds of thousands of new immigrants. The govt has a plan to boost the population to 100 Million.

As a result Canada now has the highest housing costs in the world. The Universal Health care system has a massive backlog. Emergency rooms have very long waiting periods and you cant get a family doctor.

At present the population has rebelled so the elite have reduced the inflow somewhat temporarily.
