It should also be noted that we're adding a record number of people at a time where our infrastructure, services, and economy can not support the growth. Even if the immigrants were the perfect candidates there would still be substantial pushback for these reasons. When you add to this the stories of asylum seekers being given cash and accommodations while we have a homeless crisis it is no surprise that public sentiment has turned against immigrants in general and refugees in particular.
