Mr. Marc Miller has done it again. At a recent citizenship event in Calgary, Mr. Miller stated that Canada needs "more diversity, more qualified, more talented bunch of people". Putting immigrants into camps of "quality" doesn't sound like a very quality statement. We provide immigration pathways for immigrants but deny them jobs after university, deny their skills they came with and pay them unliveable wages. Seems to us the quality assurance Mr. Miller is looking for isn't on the immigrant. 

Join Hostion and Andrea on this episode as they humanely and with humour unpack the unfairness of this statement and the polarization it creates. From the plumber down the street to the elected official, a person's quality isn't defined by their contribution to the GDP, it's defined by their inherent worth.

Mr. Miller, we think you should agree.
