An immigration policy that favors more immigrants acknowledges the significant contributions that immigrants can make to the host country's economy, workforce, and cultural landscape, promoting diversity and enriching society as a whole.
By actively seeking and welcoming more immigrants, such a policy can address labor shortages, fill skill gaps, and stimulate economic growth by harnessing the talents and expertise of individuals from different backgrounds.
Embracing a policy that favors more immigrants can also demonstrate a commitment to humanitarian values, offering refuge to those fleeing persecution, violence, or natural disasters, and providing them with opportunities for a better life and a fresh start.
One potential downside of a policy that favors more immigrants is the strain it can place on public resources such as healthcare, education, and social welfare systems, as the increased population requires additional infrastructure and services. Additionally, there may be concerns about the potential impact on job competition and wages for native-born workers, particularly in industries where immigrants are more likely to be employed.

I think there's pluses and minuses to everything. ... I am worried that Canada has too much immigration. Or not enough of the right kind. It really depends. In Canada it seems like immigration will be done to the detriment of GDP per Capita, in favor of boosting GDP in aggregate. ... I'm in favor of policy that boosts GDP per Capita.
