Today there was news that Canada’s population is rising exponentially above its natural population growth, no surprise considering how many immigrants are welcomed into the country every year. What is surprising, however – about the Canada immigration report that by 2031 the amount of immigrants in cities such as Toronto and Vancouver will outnumber those born in the country – is the sheer ease the news has been accepted around Canada.

The scheme, which last year gave away £3.4million, is seen by the Labour Government as preferential to lengthy court proceedings that could ultimately result in criminals being returned to UK streets.
