One thing is undeniable. If we are going to continue to have support for migration, we need to be able to control the numbers.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I am in favour of migration; I simply want to control the numbers.
One of the reasons why Australia and Canada have support for migration is because they control the numbers.
Movement of people is taking place on an immense scale, and from a European perspective, the number of potential future immigrants seems limitless.
This type of mass influx is simply too much to handle. What we've had since the disaster of the 1965 Immigration Act will take 100 years or more to absorb.
We can bring immigration down to sustainable levels.
I think there's a big misunderstanding on the value of migrants.
Without economic growth and job creation in Mexico, we won't be able to confront the migratory phenomenon.
For a few years, more people have been leaving our country than entering it. Wherever it is possible, we must lower the entry hurdles for those who bring the country forward.
Immigration is a good thing. We should make that as easy as possible.
I disagree with the concept that somehow or another we're going to pack up 10, to 12, to 15 million people and ship them back to the country of origin. That's not going to happen.
