Canadians are increasingly opposed to Justin Trudeau’s cynical immigration schemes.

A new Ipsos poll found that half of Canadians want lower immigration numbers and only 6% want increased immigration. This is the lowest approval rating of Canada’s immigration program since pollsters started tracking public opinion on immigration in 1975.

These numbers echo a poll released in July showing that most Canadians disapprove of Trudeau’s handling of the illegal border crisis — and despite media spin, most do consider it a “crisis.”

Another new poll commissioned by the federal government found a “public backlash” against illegal immigration. Foreign-born Canadians who came to this country legally, in particular, oppose the government’s immigration priorities.

“It’s unfair,” said one immigrant about the surge in illegal border crossings.

The typical knee-jerk reaction from both the Liberal Party and the mainstream media is to slam those who oppose more immigration as “intolerant,” “xenophobic,” or “racist.”
