Canada opposition leader Pierre Poilievre said that if his party wins the next federal election, it will address the housing crisis asserting that the country’s immigration system needs reform to achieve this. Pierre Poilievre said, “It’s not about immigration, it’s about math. It’s not a question of whether you support immigration or not; it’s about basic mathematics.” The leader pointed to the imbalance between the number of homes being built and the rate at which the population is growing, saying, “We’re only building about 240,000 homes per year, which is a 1.4% increase in housing supply. But we’re growing the population by almost 3% under Trudeau and the NDP. No wonder we’re running out of homes.” He said, “We’re going to return to the system we had before Justin Trudeau. A modest number of highly promising young people who excelled could come here, study, and if they followed the rules, they could stay.” He emphasised the urgency of aligning population growth with housing availability, saying, “We can’t grow the population faster than we’re building homes; otherwise, we’ll see even worse shortages.” Pierre Poilievre signalled that his government would scale back the international student programme which he thinks has spiralled out of control. Pierre Poilievre also talked about immigration enforcement saying that while Canada should welcome those who contribute positively but those who break the law should be deported.
