Older Canadians want fewer immigrants to relocate to Canada, poll finds

From Global News.

More Canadians over the age of 55 think fewer legal immigrants should be allowed to relocate to Canada, compared to their younger counterparts.

A new poll by Research Co. asked people across the country about their perceptions on immigration and the results highlighted a generational divide.

Forty-three per cent of Canadians believe immigration is having a mostly positive effect in the country, which is up one point since a similar Research Co. poll conducted in June 2024.

A smaller portion of Canadians, 39 per cent, think immigration is having a mostly negative effect on the country, while 18 per cent were undecided.

But as Global’s Richard Zussman reports, critics say the influx of people continues to strain resources.
