The political issue I care most about is immigration

For the past three years I have been immersed in the pettiness of neighbourhood politics. What happens in this neighbourhood does matter to me, but Bloor and Lansdowne is only a small part of Toronto. While this area is, I think, improving, I am much less optimistic about the city as a whole. I'm not going to go into detail right now but rightly or wrongly, I believe Toronto is a city in decline and the main culprit is bad immigration policy. I am not opposed to all immigration but I believe there needs to be a drastic reduction, perhaps even a moratorium. Anyone who is interested in learning more about my views on immigration can start with these five links:
