🇨🇦 Immigrants to Canada have adopted the country's low-fertility rates, new research finds

There goes one of Ottawa’s favorite fairy tales. We were told mass immigration would magically offset demographic decline, prop up the economy, and spare Canada from the consequences of its own anti-family, high-cost, late-stage liberal order. Now even the research admits the imported fix adapts to the same broken system: Canada is at 1.25 children per woman, immigrants are also below replacement, and the gap is shrinking, as reported.

So the regime imported bodies to patch over a fertility collapse it never intended to solve. Short-term GDP optics, long-term aging, weaker social cohesion, and still no real population strategy. That is the Trudeau-era formula in miniature: deny the root problem, inflate the numbers, and call it compassion. If India, the top source country, is already at 1.9, then the fantasy of endless demographic replenishment was always just that, a fantasy. There is no substitute for a country confident enough to let its own people build families. Canada does not need more managerial spin. It needs a government that sees nationhood as more than an accounting trick.
