The Choice for Canadians: the contrasting approaches to immigration

The country’s immigration trends have been a growing concern for Canadians, yet during this federal election campaign immigration policy has been fully eclipsed by anxieties relating to U.S. President Donald Trump and the threats posed by American tariffs.
