    To do what? Limit immigration so that poor ppl from countries we immiserated, exploited, and put in danger of climate collapse from our overconsumption can die? Sounds like nazi shit to me

      Wat? Should we just let anyone who wants to live in Canada do so? That sounds a lot like suicide to me.

      Setting a fixed population target for optimized citizen benefit of available resources and then bringing in immigrants to make up for the birth shortfall seems like a fairly sensible option. It’s not like our immigration would be “low” even if we did that, though it wouldn’t be as high as it currently is it would still be hundreds of thousands of people per year.
