Neocons like Harper know all the right words until they take office and govern like leftists. Ford and Pallister are prime examples. Jason Kenney is right up there too.
Immigration isn't bad, it's just right now more of a religion to politicians. If there are jobs aplenty I could care less but opening the floodgates during an economic crisis is just bad management.
We shouldn't need immigration in any case. We wouldn't need immigration if our so-called leaders were willing to just create conditions in which people actually want to have families.
Exactly, we can't fall for their game. There's tons of globalist conservative politicians out there that criticize wokeness, after all if they didn't, how would they be controlled opposition? Even Obama, a leftist globalist criticized wokeness last year. Just because Harper throws some meat to the wolves, it doesn't mean anything. Look at Boris Johnson for an example.
I don't think globalism is as dead as some make it out to be.
What is 'woke?"
Wokeism radically challenges the system: “‘You’ have not succeeded by your own efforts, or merits. You have succeeded by virtue of your visible identity alone. That identity reaches back hundreds of years, and precisely rests on opportunities deliberately denied to others. Therefore any semblance of success you have had in life – is illegitimate. It is not deserved. And it is right to take it from you. Wokeism is truly hostile to history, culture and tradition. They don’t respect it – and they insist they are right. It is not up for debate”.
Luntz concludes: “If you become Woke, you reject everything around you. You reject other people’s success. You identify them by how they look, rather than what they have achieved – and I am so pessimistic – because of the combination of wokeism, social media and politics: Politics divides the country; seeks to weaponise the language of wokeism – and social media allows you to disseminate it. It is getting worse in the U.S., you are getting worse here [in UK]. It’s not what you want; but it’s coming anyway. There’s no vaccine to stop it”.
Hes in the news a lot more lately wondering if something is up or there's some panic brewing within the CPC ranks.
This and the Iran comments suggest to me they're trying to gauge public interest.
He says he resists talking CDN politics because he becomes too emotional.

Obviously a big believer in the now and the future of immigration here.
Maybe he got that strong belief and knowledge from Jim Hawkes, with whom he worked before he betrayed the Progressive Conservative Party.

And lowering the standards is lunacy.
Canadians want higher wages, lower housing costs, safer living, and preserving our culture. Immigration does the opposite.
We shouldn't need immigration in any case. We wouldn't need immigration if our so-called leaders were willing to just create conditions in which people actually want to have families.
