Immigration Minister Marc Miller will closely review the rise of international students and temporary residents in Canada due to concerns over housing affordability and immigration. Miller underlines the importance of considering housing issues when setting immigration targets. As Canada struggles with housing affordability, the Conservative opposition links government deficits to climbing interest rates. Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre suggests cutting unnecessary spending to balance the budget and proposes tying infrastructure funding to home construction quotas. Many Canadians believe increased immigration exacerbates housing affordability and healthcare system issues.
