“Immigration flip-flop”: Poilievre blasts Trudeau’s policies as Liberals express discontent
Canada's Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre said in Toronto, Ont., on Thursday that the Liberal party’s “immigration flip-flop” demonstrated Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s “massive admission of failure” on the immigration system. “We can't expect that Justin Trudeau will keep any of these frantic, panicked, last-minute promises that he's making to reverse his earlier decisions,” Poilievre said. “His own MPs in the Liberal party are trying to fire him in an election year. He is a panicked, incompetent, failed prime minister.” Poilievre’s remarks followed Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s announcement that the federal government is slashing immigration targets to levels that will flatten population growth. The government had initially targeted bringing in 500,000 new permanent residents in both 2025 and 2026, but next year's target has now been revised to 395,000 new permanent residents instead.
