Wouldn’t they benefit from more people? Of course it would come with the condition of learning the language at an acceptable level and that being tied to residency.

    I’d argue that homeless are a symptom and lack of housing is the problem.

      yes and no.

      homeless are a symptom of many things. healthcare. lack of rentals. lack of employment. lack of social services.

      but what is known is that there has been a huge increase in the rate of population growth in Canada in the last several years, along with a decrease in natural population increases (lowering birth rate) and a massive increase in immigration. While housing is an issue, there were never enough spare beds for the increase, and never could be, in the time frame they were required.

      So, to put it another way: no.
