Most Canadians still think Canada is accepting too many immigrants, and many don't trust newcomers: poll

The Leger poll found that 57% of immigrants also agree that there are too many immigrants, while 60% of non-immigrants feel that way.

The national Leger poll conducted for the Association for Canadian Studies and the Metropolis Institute found that 62 per cent of people think that the country is currently admitting too many immigrants. That’s an increase of four percentage points since pollsters last asked the question in March 2025, and more than double the number of people who felt that way six years ago. In the most recent poll, only 20 per cent disagreed and 19 per cent said they don’t know. The poll also asked Canadians if they think immigrants can be trusted. Only 42 per cent of Canadians said immigrants can be trusted and that number drops to 36 per cent when it comes to refugees. The poll found that 20 per cent of respondents think immigrants cannot be trusted and 23 per cent said refugees cannot be trusted.

“While most observers attribute the persistent concern with the numbers of refugees to economic concerns and housing challenges, the survey looks at the extent to which Canadians trust immigrants and refugees and finds that amongst those Canadians who feel that there are too many immigrants, the level of trust in refugees is especially low,” says an analysis published alongside the poll. It found that of the people who think there are too many people coming to Canada, only 32 per cent trust immigrants, while 28 per cent said they can’t be trusted. Only 24 per cent trust refugees, while 32 per cent said they cannot be trusted. “This may imply that concerns over domestic intergroup tensions may be a more important factor in concern with levels than has been previously acknowledged,” the analysis says.

The poll found that 57 per cent of immigrants also agree that there are too many immigrants, while 60 per cent of non-immigrants feel that way. Non-white people surveyed feel the strongest, with 61 per cent agreeing that there are too many immigrants, compared to 58 per cent of white people.

Should have been one of, if not the most important issue of the recent election.

I doubt it ever will. Government on both sides been lying on stopping immigration since the 60s but just expand later anyways.

Only way for things to change is with a cultural vanguard.

Depression Recession will change it.

Until IRCC is renamed Remigration, Ferryrides and Sink-their-ships Canada, it's too many.

I was going to say that our self-serving government couldn't care less what we think.

Never has.

Canadians might be starting to wake up, but they still don’t see the magnitude of the problem. There’s 5 to 8 million of them. No one knows the real number. Deporting them is slow and takes years. They have every incentive to ignore their permits expiring and just stay here. They have formed parallel societies and work cash jobs and live in their jeet hives.

Make it illegal to hire non-citizens (or landed immigrants). If a business is found to be employing them (do random checks) it is seized, sold at auction and the owners are jailed for 10 years. It might not get rid of all them but it would put a cramp in their style.

European colonization destroyed the previous civilization. I expect this new wave of colonization to destroy ours.

Canada will basically be Indian by 2050. Now do the needful and apply for MAID today

The wogs will never be able to maintain a civilization in a northern country like Canada, the wagon burners will get it back eventually.
