There's one about the fentanyl that I find rather strange. The smugglers wouldn't be bringing it in unless there's a market for the stuff. So, the simple solution is stop using it, and, problem solved. …

It’s because some immigration consultants sell the PR. It’s becoming a scam. Canadians don’t even get jobs. Young people don’t even get jobs. And Canada now is has lost its integrity as a country. It’s infested with drug cartels like America, infested with scammers, terrorists war mongerers, car nappers etc, etc, Canada is not the same anymore. Just imagine the government is already taken by other ideologies. The death of the freedom of Canadian soldiers in the wars are already in vain. The morals, integrity, honesty and due diligence. History of Canada should be inculcated in schools. So children of the country will know how Canada became as Canada. It is the freedom to live in peace in honesty in diligence in integrity. For the unit of a society starts from a family. If all of these is not practice, Canada as a country Will be gone. If a country don’t take control of these things, the history of Canada is totally gone.
Comprehensive critique of immigration policy, government integrity, and national decline, blending concerns about scams, security threats, and loss of Canadian values.

She wants to allow 1000's of illegals to stay here. She wants to keep the free health care for them. Plus she supports actually allowing foreigners into our military is insane!

Immigrants are unaware that the great opportunity they have in Quebec is worth its weight in gold. During their stay, they spend two, three, or five years here and neither speak, read, nor write French. They go about their daily lives like any other Quebecer who is settled here. And when the time comes to leave, they have to sell off what little they own and return with nothing. They shout and argue as if Canada owes them something, even though they haven't received any financial assistance from their own governments in their home countries, yet here they come demanding it. I hope that what they experienced here will motivate them to prosper when they return.
Critiques immigrant behavior and integration in Quebec, questioning their gratitude and effort to learn French, with underlying moral judgment about entitlement.
