🇨🇦 How will Immigration Define Canada’s 2025 Election?

🗳️ Why Immigration Matters
As Canada heads into the April 28 federal election, over 90 groups – led by the Immigrant Services Society of BC – are asking political leaders to support a fairer, more inclusive immigration system.

📢 What They’re Calling For
The coalition wants policies that welcome skilled workers, help undocumented people gain legal status, and improve access to housing, healthcare, and education.

🤝 Not About Politics – About People
Group spokesperson Tom Saville says this isn’t about left or right. “It’s about trust, fairness, and helping newcomers thrive in Canada.”

🏠 A Key Election Issue
Immigration is now a top topic. Liberals want better support, Conservatives want to link immigration to housing, and the NDP pushes for more migrant rights.

📌 Bottom Line
Immigration can keep Canada strong – but it needs smart, compassionate policies that help everyone succeed.
