Canada has long been known as a welcoming country, proud of its diversified social fabric. However, recent trends in immigration have raised concerns among many Canadian citizens. The influx of low-skilled immigrants, along with rising cases of undocumented migrants entering the country, presents challenges that the government seems to be overlooking.

Statistics from reputable sources such as Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada show that over the past few years, there has been a significant increase in immigration numbers, with many immigrants arriving under various entry schemes that may not ensure adequate contribution to Canada's economic or cultural landscape. Meanwhile, Canadian citizens experience increasing strains on social services, housing, and employment opportunities. Long time, hard working, tax-paying Canadians are being neglected.

Furthermore, an overlooked dimension is the issue of undocumented immigration which, according to the Canadian Border Services Agency, remains difficult to quantify but is estimated to be growing. This is concerning for the security and wellbeing of existing citizens.

It is essential for Canada's government to prioritize the welfare of its long-time residents. This involves revisiting immigration policies to focus more on deportations of undocumented individuals and stricter controls over immigration quality. Reforming these policies would alleviate strains on public services and aid in developing a fair and sustainable approach to welcoming newcomers who genuinely contribute to society.

A call to change is needed now more than ever. By signing this petition, you are urging the Canadian government to act decisively, ensuring that immigration policies align more closely with the needs and safety of Canadian citizens while maintaining the country's long-standing value of responsible and compassionate immigration management.

Please sign this petition to urge our leaders to make the necessary changes to protect the interests of all Canadians.
