According to a study by the Environics Institute, 6 out of every 10 Canadians, or 58 per cent, are against immigration. They feel that more foreigners are living there than necessary. Canadians believe it will increase by 14 per cent after 2023.

The number of Canadians who believe this has increased in the past year. 43 percent agree that thousands of people claiming to be refugees are not actually refugees. 57 per cent believe immigrants do not follow Canadian values.

68 percent believe foreigners have improved the economy

However, the number of people believing so has declined for the second consecutive year. For the second consecutive year after 2023, such beliefs have declined among people aged 18 to 29 years.
