Here are 10 realistic and bold solutions aimed at addressing Canada’s immigration, political, social, and economic challenges in 2025 and beyond. These are meant to promote national stability, protect Canadian identity, and restore trust in leadership — without undermining human rights or democratic values.
1. Freeze on Mass Immigration Until Infrastructure Catches Up
Why: Canada’s infrastructure, housing, and healthcare systems are strained.
Solution: Temporarily cap immigration levels (especially non-essential or non-refugee categories) until housing, healthcare, and social services can adequately support current residents and new arrivals.
2. Merit-Based Immigration Reform
Why: Current immigration focuses heavily on volume, not integration or contribution.
Solution: Shift to a points-based system like Australia’s, prioritizing applicants who meet Canada’s labor market needs (trades, nurses, engineers) and have strong cultural compatibility and language proficiency.
3. Ban Foreign Ownership of Residential Real Estate for 10 Years
Why: Foreign investment is driving up housing prices and making cities unaffordable.
Solution: A decade-long ban on non-resident foreign ownership of homes and land, alongside audits of existing holdings.
4. Decentralize Federal Power and Empower Provinces
Why: Ottawa is too centralized and disconnected from local realities.
Solution: Give provinces more control over healthcare, education, and local immigration programs. This also means reforming or abolishing the carbon tax if a province votes against it.
5. Revive National Energy Sovereignty & Resource Development
Why: Canada is rich in natural resources but poor in energy independence.
Solution: Reopen pipelines, approve LNG and oil projects, and balance environmental protection with economic security. End reliance on foreign oil and incentivize domestic refining.
6. Deport Non-Citizen Criminals Immediately After Sentencing
Why: Public safety is compromised when non-citizen criminals are allowed to stay.
Solution: Fast-track deportation for non-citizens who commit serious crimes, with no right of appeal unless life-threatening persecution is proven.
7. Enact Political Accountability & Term Limits
Why: Career politicians protect their parties, not the people.
Solution: Implement two-term limits for MPs and senators, mandatory performance audits, and harsh penalties for misuse of taxpayer funds or lying in Parliament.
8. Protect Free Speech & End Ideological Censorship
Why: Increasing censorship and cancel culture are eroding democracy.
Solution: Reform or scrap Bill C-11 and similar laws that threaten online expression. Uphold Charter rights for all viewpoints, left or right.
9. Prioritize Canadians for Jobs & Government Benefits
Why: Canadians are being passed over in favor of foreign temporary workers and newcomers.
Solution: Require all companies receiving government contracts or subsidies to hire Canadians first. Limit access to welfare and social programs to citizens and permanent residents only.
10. Launch a National Commission on Truth and Economic Recovery
Why: Canadians are deeply divided and economically insecure.
Solution: Convene an independent, citizen-led body to investigate the impact of past policies (pandemic mandates, economic mismanagement, media manipulation), and recommend reparations, reforms, and a new path forward.
