HARRIS, HOUSING, OPEN BORDERS: It may seem at first glance to be an unexpected connection — the cost of housing and the rate of legal and illegal immigration into the U.S. — but it is nevertheless quite real and damaging, according to Wintery Knight.
Among much else, Wintery Knight points out Canada’s experience in this area:
“The same thing happened in Canada, after nine years of Justin Trudeau. He let in MILLIONS of illegal immigrants and refugees – people who pay less in taxes than they collect in benefits. And you can bet they need somewhere to live.
“Unfortunately, Trudeau’s anti-business policies have killed the home construction industry. Demand went up, supply went down. Now the average price of a single-family home in Canada is up to $801,600 CAD. ($593,406.75 USD) And if that were not bad enough, the massive influx of unskilled immigrants has caused health care costs to skyrocket – up to $17, 713 CAD for a two-parent family with two children. Demand is going up, but supply is going down, as many Canadian doctors leave to work in countries that pay more, and tax less.”
