Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca also apply here. See the sidebar on the homepage:
A) Asylum is legal. B) 39,000 people in a year represents a population gain of....0.001%. Horrifying.
Actually... It's a gain of 0.1%. it's also 9% of all new immigrants to Canada in a given year. It's also 4x the limit of the recent H1B holders visa program for skilled immigrants who could not stay in the US.
