Immigration targets have risen steadily in recent years. Last year, the government released a plan to grant permanent residency to 465,000 people in 2023, a figure that would rise to 500,000 by 2025.

The immigration target for 2015 was under 300,000.

Uh oh.

Are politicians going to have to start funding post secondary schools instead of extracting money from the developing world?

Will Tim's franchise owners need to pay a reasonable wage?

What about fish plants and meat packers? Will they need to consider automation?

And what about the landlords renting to foreign students at inflated rates?
