It was just written to ilustrate dying villages problem, and jobs that locals don't want to do. They already live here for half a year, so what would change if they stay? They would spend all their money they made locally!
Besides this half of population of Alberta wasn't born here in this province or even in Canada. Well, and we are live, prosperous with good standard of living. Nothing bad happened, the world didn't claps, neither our Western civilization. Immigrants come here and work hard. There are not many more cases of lazy emigrants on welfare system than country's average. So don't give me this BS that immigrants are coming to Europe to do nothing and abuse the system. Statistics don't confirm your point of view.
There racecourses are there to help, you just don't want to help, period. It has more to do with your human condition and most Europeans than material ability to help.
It is just 200 thousand in average year. To put it in perspective, Canada builds new housing for 300 thousand refugees a year, with population of 35 million people. Europe has 750 million people! How hard is to accommodate 200 k or even half a million this year!? Beside the point that it is not a big effort to accommodate that many people a year, is the fact that in Europe there are millions of empty houses in villages! You just don't want to give them, or rent them, the empty homes. Nice!
The age of petty low grade jobs is almost over in Europe.
We are in an age of online banking, online shopping, driverless metro trains and increasing automation which will make all labour intensive forms of work largely obsolete.
Europe has massive youth unemployment not because the young are lazy (though some are) but because most of the old manual industries have disappeared or are disappearing in the West.
There are too many people already (without migrants from outside the EU) for too few jobs.
The EU should man up and make deals with the powers that be in Tripolitania (Libya) and Turkey to set up centres where people can be processed to see if they are genuine asylum seekers like Syrians or Eritreans.
Economic migrants like most West Africans are simply not required.
