Canada’s Immigration Mess Is About to Get Worse ft. Phil Mooney & Nir Rozenberg

Canada brought millions in—but now many are stuck, jobless, out of status, or being told the promise may never come true.

Behind the immigration crisis is a broken system, weak oversight, student exploitation, and no easy path back.

In this episode, we break down:

  • How Canada’s immigration system became overwhelmed after COVID
  • Why international students were sold an unrealistic path to permanent residency
  • The role of colleges, recruiters, tuition incentives, and government policy
  • Why temporary residents may now face impossible choices
  • How labour shortages, skilled trades, and Express Entry changes collide
  • Whether Canada has any realistic plan to fix the immigration backlog
  • Why enforcement, employer abuse, and immigration oversight matter
  • What Canada can learn from the U.S., Europe, Australia, and New Zealand

  • Hosts: Paul Micucci
  • Guests: Phil Mooney, Nir Rozenberg
