a lot (most) of people with your view simply aren’t aware of the current rental (let alone sale) market situation
What is my view, again? I think I am pretty aware of the rental market situation as I'm a renter myself, with a very recent contract.
I don’t think ensuring the people entering Canada have an even somewhat affordable place to live is “anti-immigration”.
If the path to ensure that is not allowing them to immigrate, it really is impossible to spin this as anything else than anti-immigration...
