🤔 Immigrant vs. immigrant? 🤔 Show me the show down! Nah . . . LOL.
What we mean is there are differences depending on WHEN you came to Canada. And there can be conflict. It's complex! That's okay. But maybe we CAN understand each other. 🤗

Immigrants voted for right party leaders Trump and were projected to vote for Poilievre in Canada. Why? 🤔 On a deeper level, immigrants weren't projected to vote for right leaning leaders because they sounded nice. They voted for them to align themselves in what it is to be Canadian. 🇨🇦 #Canadian
