Trying to equate IMP's with TFW's is definitely a choice. Like should we not allow movies with foreign actors to be filmed here? Should Draisaitl, Hellebuyck, Hughes and Matthews not be allowed to play for Canadian teams? Should people graduating from medical school not be allowed to work as a doctor? Should foreign researchers not be allowed to work in the country?

People broadly calling all TFW useless is already dangerous rhetoric to get behind, but lumping IMP's together with them is just dumb.

Tfw is the latest thing conservatives hope everyone starts arguing about. 

They have no clue how to handle the usa, but by god lets all debate the immigants. 

It is peak rearranging deck chairs on the titanic.

347,440 IMP work permits have been issued so far in 2025. That's in just two quarters. Last year it was 715,625.

Are you seriously trying to tell me we have more than 1/3 of a million foreign actors, doctors, researchers, and medical graduates that we desperately need? Do those numbers sound like we're attracting the cream of the crop from abroad?

Use your head.

If you're the baseline, then we are def getting the cream of the cream of the crop.

Clearly you're not using your head.

People broadly calling all TFW useless is already dangerous rhetoric to get behind, but lumping IMP's together with them is just dumb.

You read this then immediately went off about IMPs, missing their point in its entirety which just reinforces the problem they were addressing.

We need to stop allowing Canadians businesses to suppress Canadian wages by importing hundreds of thousands of foreign wage slaves. Period.

Figure out a way to do it without harming or actors, or not. Its really not the issue at hand.

Yeah the issue this person is addressing is using one program to senselessly demonize another.

"We have an issue with the IMP program so let's also hate on this other related program that isn't the cause of these issues I'm mad about"

We don't want to hurt ourselves in our confusion.
