Another reason why so many immigrants from poor countries are running to Canada, all thanks to Trudope. One of the reasons Trudope justified his mass immigration policy is that they need more workers. Okay. But along with them they are bring their retired parents who are collected free money and free healthcare. How does that make any sense? One of the reasons why the hospitals are clogged up. Recent immigrants 65 and up, your sponsor should cover ALL expenses and receive no OAS or universal healthcare. I found out something interesting, this is in Ontario, but Quebec has similar programs maybe someone knows if Quebec does the same thing. Immigrants 65 and over who just arrived to Canada are not eligible for pension. So when they apply for social assistance in Ontario they are granted OW, which is Ontario Works. It is a kind of welfare, it includes money for food, shelter, clothing, and other household costs, the cost of prescription medications, etc.. Then they are fast tracked to automatic ODSP which is Ontario Disability Support Program which provides financial assistance to those who are disabled and cannot work, until they meet all the eligibility criteria to get OAS which is 10 years residency. OAS is Old Age Security which is basically the equivalent of Welfare but for those who are 65 and over. This clogged up ODSP for people who truly need the assistance. This is one reason housing is so unaffordable. The immigrants tend to be multi generational types where the parents stay with their kids. So a new immigrant family who bring in at the most four retired parents collecting money from Canada plus pension from their own countries all of a sudden that family has tons of money to afford a downpayment and buy a house. Now you see what a disasted Trudope is. Anyhow, Quebec has similar programs maybe someone knows if the same thing applies to Quebec.
