the thing is they blame immigrants but won't do anything against the real driver of housing unaffordability, the collusion of regulators and corporations offering large liquidity to housing market.

its breaking apart. the city of vancouver is broke and basic services are being scaled back.

theres also a large brain drain here. only idiots work for vancouver startups/companies that tries to gaslight you that sunshine tax is real.

It's not about vancouver. Everyone who wants to live in vancouver knows what they're getting into. It's the fact that at the current rate of immigration they're adding a small city worth of people every single year into the middle of a healthcare service crisis, a housing crisis, an infrastructure and services crisis, etc, and there are no plans to deal with any of those issues.

Of course there's a brain drain going on, but in terms of the average canadian that's not the issue. the issue is that Canada's immigration policy far outpaces its ability to provide for canadians and immigrants, and the government doesn't care that their immigration policy is seriously injuring the quality of life for people already living in canada.

It doesn't affect the people in government because their politics makes questioning immigration targets and policies verboten and you could be ejected from polite society if you do. If you have a problem with their policies and the massive crisis its introduced to the country its obviously because of racism, right?

It literally has nothing to do with vancouver on its own.

that's an awful long winded way say you blame immigrants for problems that have long existed before their arrival
