The new immigrants Jason Kenney is importing, fail even the most simplest of tests

No matter how tough or heartless or a stickler for  rules and regulations that the Immigration Minister Jason Kenney's persona is at pains to portray,  his department is still importing  the kind of immigrants and approving the kind of refugees who will ultimately, by a large percentage,  be a burden on Canada and Canadian taxpayers.  His department is paving the way for a future EU-kind of  benefits dependent population and furthermore,  the influx of Muslim immigrants coming into the country on his watch should be a concern to everybody, even the supporters of the Minister.


Personally,  I think the Conservative govt. is trying to appease the majority of Canadians who just know that "BAD" immigrants and "WORSE" refugees are now citizens of this great country because of their own laxness .... by unleashing the various  fictional "tough immigration measures" that Jason Kenney so readily tells us he is taking .... while they continue bringing in Muslims from Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Libya, Pakistan, India, Syria and from all over Africa.   The future does not look good for peace loving non-Muslims in Canada.  
  
Andy Radia writing at Yahoo/Politics:
An immigrant can apply  to become a citizen three years after moving to Canada.
It's the final step in immigrating and, as opposed to permanent residency, allows people to vote and carry a Canadian passport.
But, according to an article in the Globe and Mail, more and more newcomers are failing the citizenship test since the Harper government made the exam a lot tougher..........
