Yes, especially now after the last 10 years or so when things got out of hand. They're trying to reverse that past trend under Tudeau. Our new PM is already making changes and a lot of immigrants are being told they must leave once their (usually student) visa is up and that's already lowering the cost of housing somewhat, as much as 25% in some areas and usually over 10% in most places. Of course the Universities are not happy because they charge foreign students a lot more than they do Canadian residents, and new applicants for that are being cut way back. The expired student visa thing was that a lot of students who graduated didn't want to leave the country and return home. --- * SLMR Rob * Nothing succeeds like Excess * Origin: capitolcityonline.net * Telnet/SSH:2022/HTTP (618:250/1) .
