🇨🇦 New permanent residents down 20% in Canada. Nearly half the drop came from India

So the grand immigration machine suddenly discovered a brake pedal. Permanent residents down 20 per cent, study permits down 24 per cent, asylum claims down 35 per cent, and nearly half the PR drop came from India alone, as reported. Funny how the same system that spent years pretending mass intake was an economic law of nature now admits it was a government-driven expansion all along.

Ontario and B.C. built entire political and institutional ecosystems around endless inflows, then act shocked when tighter screening and actual borders hit their numbers. Translation: colleges, employers, settlement lobbies, and every parasite attached to the migration pipeline are feeling withdrawal. The real scandal is not that admissions are falling. It is that Canada was turned into a predictable education-to-immigration conveyor belt in the first place, with one source country wildly overrepresented until the obvious strain became impossible to hide. This is what happens when a country stops governing for its own capacity and starts serving an ideology of permanent demographic churn.
