Well, we don't have very much time, so....
Also, we know that prioritizing immigration applicants based on their ability to fulfill the needs of the Canadian job market is.... We have a quote here from Diane Finley about “whether it's people to wash dishes and make sandwiches, or whether it's the highly skilled engineers”; so we know where these priorities lie.
The Conservatives' attack on immigrants makes clear that poor people, working people, people of colour, and families of people from these groups need not apply to come to Canada as permanent residents. They should only come if they are willing to come temporarily as workers in exploitative and marginal jobs where complaining about work conditions can result in job loss, loss of status, and thus deportation.
This is particularly revolting in a context where the Canadian government and Canadian corporations actively participate in the creation and reinforcement of a system of global displacement of migrants and refugees fleeing poverty, persecution, war, and corporate exploitation of their lands.
We must oppose the anti-democratic and anti-immigrant changes. We must fight for a society that does not exclude and marginalize poor and working people, people of colour from the global south, and that does not deport, detain, and further exploit immigrants and refugees.
