Citizenship And Immigration Canada;
Thank you for your interest in Citizenship and Immigration Canada’s online consultation on Immigration Levels and Mix.
An online consultation will be held in late summer 2011. If you are interested in participating in this activity, please provide your contact information below. You will be contacted when the consultation is launched.
You can leave your contact information here. Heh.
Signed Up!
I’m a white, male, 6th generation Canadian and voted Conservative. Which according to some, makes me an evil racist bent on enslaving the masses, burning up the atmosphere, and worst of all, not attending gay pride parades.
Suspicion of kicking puppies and taking candy from babies has yet to be proven; but will be as soon as it’s fabricated.

Stakeholder = academic, ethnic, NGO, patronage, also found under gen category, whores.
Signed up. Willing to bet will not be contacted.
Not signed up. Call me crazy, but I don’t want to be on that particular list. Bureaucracies have really long memories.
Yup, one early am in the future there will be a knock on the door. Your neighbors will sleep through the night as they load you in a van.
It’s too bad left leaning people don’t have memories as long as the one’s in the governments they create.
Think I’ll sign up.
I mean, it’s obvious that Canada needs more Libyan doctors.
After all, two years ago Scotland’s best sent a terminally ill terrorist back home to die in Tripoli, and he’s still bombin’ around.
I signed up, figured if my Grandfather could handle being blown out of a tank twice at Dieppe, least i could do is sit on the other side of the table and accept a little name calling whilst trying to explain why Sharia Law and my daughter in a burqua was not what Canadians had in mind when they put out the welcome mat.
I signed up,for many of the same reasons as “golfergirl”.
I’m pretty certain the bureaucrats got all they want on us already.
I bet a lot of you naive folks signed up for the “I haven’t registered my rifle poll” too. Getting your name on a government list is worse than spam. They won’t promise you a bigger willie or little blue pills but will certainly try to screw you with it.
Signed up!
My grandfather walked the railroad in the Ukraine during WW11 and let everyone pass from both sides without firing a shot. It did keep him from being filled full of lead by doing so, but I figure I can make a difference by calling for less porous borders than we have now!
Hey, Texas Canuck, how come you’re all of a sudden Texas-Canuck? Fancy new signature?!

This one is funnier
Thanks for the link Kate. I have some strong views on immigration and have signed on to the process. That being said I’m not holding my breath that public input will affect the fore drawn conclusions in place by our bureaucrats. Smoke and mirrors.

Added my name and e-mail to the list for what it is worth.
I work in an office building where the local passport office was set up. I wasconstantly being asked by folks who could speak very little English for directions to the passport (or was it pissboot) office.
To be issued a passport one must be a citizen. How does one spend 5+ years in Canada and NOT speak English or FrenchÉ
“I bet a lot of you naive folks signed up”
Those who use their real identity on the internet are the naive ones.
I hope many people sign up for this. Note that the “consultation” is said to be online, so there may be no need for busy people to attend any meetings. My expectations of the Conservative government on this issue were low, but so far they have exceeded those admittedly low expectations — note the capping of the immigrant investor program while it is “reviewed”, and the issuing of the “wanted” list of war criminals at large in Canada. Neither of those would have ever happened under the Liberals, and I can’t remember the Liberals ever seeking the public’s opinion on immigration (or on much else).
Politicians are seldom leaders, but much more often followers. Public resistance to mass third world immigration is clearly waxing throughout the developed countries. A process like this could give politicians and bureaucrats some cover to reduce the quantity and increase the quality of immigrants.
for all of those who didn’t want to get involved, if you don’t get involved then you can just shut up when problems happen because of open immigration. If you are too selfish and lazy to do anything about the problem then you DO NOT have a right to complain.
Well I will sign up but have very, very low expectations of any change to immigration rules and regulations.
The recent rulings of the IRT related to the ship loads of illegal Tamils are simply an indication of very much talk but very much inaction.
I used my real name.
“Those who use their real identity on the internet are the naive ones.”
I assume that all the folks using “nomsdenet” are high ranking government officials or members of the Secret Service, or just paranoid.
If you’re going to have,and state ,strong opinions, I can’t see how it’s advantageous to hide behind a pseudonym.If the Feds really want to find out who you are,they can trace you through your IP address.
I often disagree with Kathy Shaidle for her rabid views,but I’ve always admired her courage in NOT hiding who she is or where she is.
We don’t live in a police State,YET, and I don’t think we’re at the point where we have to hide our identities for fear of being hustled off to a gulag.
Agreed. I signed on for this futile farce,just for shats and giggles.
If the feds haven’t got my e-mail address and info by now,then either I don’t really matter,or they agree with my opinions.
Just a thought. I really hope that ‘new/ok’ will be participating.
Sorry, I avoid Gov’t. web sites, considering how easily they are hacked. Finance where all your tax forms are so secret, well, apparently, not to the Chinese!

As I’ve stated before, I frequent and comment from multiple Muslim countries throughout the year. My written opinions of Islam online are stronger when home in Canada than abroad, dependant on where exactly I am.
A pseudonym is really a simple safeguarding barrier encase I tick anyone off badly enough to easily find me when outside of the country (obviously it doesn’t take much to tick off Islam). When traveling I also wear nondescript worn darker clothing, a cheap watch and keep an aware attitude.
Is trouble abroad likely for online comments? Not really, but why do we bother with life insurance?
Anyway another reason to consider aside from unfounded fear of a western “police state”.
