Has Canada soured on immigration?
For the first time in decades most Canadians say too many people are being let in.
A majority of Canadians say too many people are being allowed in the country, for the first time this century. Multiculturalism and the acceptance of newcomers are central to Canada鈥檚 national identity. But amidst record-breaking population growth, a cost of living crisis and a shortage of affordable housing, many Canadians have begun to question whether the country has the capacity to keep accepting hundreds of thousands of migrants each year.
On this episode Azadeh Moshiri is joined by the 成人快手鈥檚 Celia Hatton, who has travelled across Canada speaking to politicians, activists and asylum centre workers about the Canadian immigration debate.
