- Canada needs to reduce population growth to modest levels (i.e., cut immigration, Temporary Foreign
- Workers & foreign students, refugees are separate).
- Canada’s population growth has been the highest in the G7 (double the US rate in 2019) because
- Canada drastically increased immigration after 2015, likely to meet the goal of 100 million in 2100,
- based on the corporate funded Century Initiative. This is not environmentally or economically
- sustainable.
- Canada's population should only grow by the minimum or modest amount necessary to meet our
- demographic and economic needs (under 0.5%).
