One economist says that while Canada’s rapid population growth helped to fill job vacancies after the COVID-19 pandemic, it has also spurred rent price inflation and made housing shortages worse.
OP recently posted a rumble video to shit made by the founder of the American Nazi, George Lincoln Rockwell. Considering their seemingly anti immigration stance, you can probably guess their politics.
You use rumble, you watch neo Nazi accounts on there (peacedozer), you are into conspiracy theories, you are anti immigration, and you think shit from George Lincoln Rockwell, the founder of the American Nazi Party, is interesting. If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck…
If you are somehow not a neo Nazi, you are going to want to do some serious self reflection. You yourself may not be a neo Nazi but the company you keep is fucking filled with them.
However, Grantham also highlighted that given the attention on population growth and housing affordability, “it is easy to lose sight of the positive impact that newcomers into the country are having, particularly in the labour market.”
Given stories from other outlets about Canada’s tanking productivity, I suspect an influx of workers also discourages employers from investing in automation/productivity improvements.
I think we’ve had a few months in the past year where population growth has outpaced job creation, which seems like it would exacerbate the productivity/wage thing.
