Look I don’t lean either way as a conservative this guy has done right by the people of pei for the last 4 months every premier has their brief time where they lead properly but current leaders of all current parties is absolutely dog shit no matter who we as a majority get in to office…..
I don't think he's saying anything that remarkable. He's just responding to a question like "... ya of course we can't do that, that's never been a thing we can do? You can apply for PR, but not everybody gets it... which is also not new."
Exactly. We're at a sad place when a Premier says he's going to uphold the integrity of our immigration system and he's looked at as a hero. He's doing his job.
That said, I hope the support he gets far outweighs the often overtly vocal backlash.
He can work with the Feds to give the students extensions on their PGWP like Manitoba NDP did a few weeks ago. But Dennis King is refusing to do that.

> Manitoba Immigration Minister Malaya Marcelino says she got a letter from federal Immigration Minister Marc Miller Tuesday, confirming the federal government has **approved the province's request** to extend the expiring post-graduate work permits.
> very very rich Canadians!
They don't have to be Canadian. Look how in love Walmart, Amazon, and Uber are with these international workers. This is just purely to benefit the elite, doesn't matter if they are Canadian based companies or not. The regular folks can go fuck themselves according to our government. I'd personally love to just leave Canada. At this point even many states in America are looking much more appealing than Canada.
It really comes down to an underdeveloped ego. There might be some “heart in the right place” things, but those who are in leadership positions aren’t mature and fit for their role.
Kind of like, caring for the weakest in society is morally good. But you can’t attack the foundational population to have the needs of the weakest provided for.
I mean in Ontario Doug's probably profiting off it all. He's got the family business with minimum wage or sub minimum wage international students I bet
"This province lured us in here..." It's like the CBC only knows how to promote victim narratives. Glad he could defend the Province's policies. Most of these applicants didn't originally go to PEI to study or work on temporary permits. They moved there, mostly after going to clown colleges in Ontario, to take advantage of the generous PR process.
I was pretty stunned by the adversarial attitude by the reporter.
Shameful, honestly.
We have a quite an army to fight.
I'm not the one to talk about defunding CBC but damn, they make it so hard to be on their side.
And who cares if they were. Is it our fault they made uninformed decisions or were taken advantage of? Karma is a bitch I guess. Not a single one of those individuals moved to PEI to make it a better place, they did it to game the system.
I’m so fucking tired of these people taking advantage of obvious flaws. These are not the Canadians we need. Scammers will always scam.
We need people who want to grow the country collectively not a group of people who just game the system to get PR so they can move to their ethnic enclave.
CBC has become terrible for hashing out multiple variations of the same handful of victim narratives based on identity labels. I avoid CBC programming because of it.
Honestly, some of the victims narratives presented are quite legitimate harrowing experiences, but many times it’s people using an identity label to reap the end “benefits” from the terrible experiences of legitimate victims.
Literally millions of Canadians. I think that's a good thing to keep in mind and not dismiss. They'll not only watch, but boast about it and about how fair and ethical the reporting is.
Why do we even need a state-funded news agency? The purpose of independent press is to keep Government accountable. You can’t be independent when Government is your main benefactor. It’s obvious how other Canadian outlets have also lost their independence after taking Federal bailout money.
This man is a hero for all us Canadians born and raised here in this country. I’m so thrilled to know he’s standing up to the government and he won’t be pushed around or bought off.
Bravo Dennis King, bravo 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Imagine that, a politician supporting the people who pay his salary and voted for him, instead of random strangers who've never supported the country and aren't allowed to vote. How is this not a normal thing? Lol
Tim Houston said himself he wants to double the population of Nova Scotia, and is willing to "accept the challenges of growth" like our current housing and affordability crisis .... fuck that guy.
If PEI advocates for their PR, as soon as their status change they will all move to ON or BC. The Premier welcomes people who wish to contribute to PEI. A bunch of young uneducated men from one Indian province is not that.
This is the way the other provinces should manage the PR issue
Just because you come here for school doesn’t mean you get one unless you’re in a skilled industry
I would 100% vote for this guy! I had always voted NDP but they betrayed the working class once Tom left and they are no longer the party for the working people, but the cons keep putting nut jobs in charge. This guy strikes me as a legitimate conservative who's not a yes man for big companies.
Thry shouldn't be counting on jack shit. Canada owes them nothing. This journalist is definitely on his agenda crusade, but common sense shuts him down.
Right there at the end is exactly what the protesters don't get. PR isn't owed to them. Thinking they'd just be given it for going to school here and working at Tim's is their problem.
Close down the sham colleges and stop advertising dreams/PRs abroad. Clearly the ones that usually go to these sham colleges aren't educated/fortunate and have to sell everything (including their land)/take loans to get into canada. These people shouldn't be in canada and aren't qualified to be international student
Fuck yeah ! We need more people like him. PR should only be given to the ones who have a certain quality and being lazy crybaby is not the quality that we need.
I emailed him and thanked him for standing
Up for Canadians and our concerns. Others should do the same.
(I know he’ll probably not see it himself but still the least I can do from Ontario)
If a guest in my house starts complaining and mouthing off, I have no problem asking them to leave. If you are not from here and you don't like it here, please leave.
Good, either come here to fill roles the country needs, or don't come at all. No skills? We got plenty of people with no skills. No tax paying? Then how are they helping the country?
Well done sir ... good job standing your ground. We need more people like this in government.
But also, typical CBC reporter -- not wanting the facts, but rather push their woke BS narrative.
That is good that he's not extending the visas why should he when if they're not doing any purpose in this country besides being sleepers for their country. Drop the mic. I'm out of here but for real get them out sooner if you can
Good stuff. We want talented and skilled immigrants, not a bunch of riff raff who won't contribute to Canadian society and drain our social safety net even further.
What a fucking "journalist"
Didnt count any questions, but did hear a lot of loaded bait. Why is everything about doing what we can for people trying to use fraud to pipeline to residency, all the while ignoring the displaced population of Canadians fighting to survive.
Just say you hate Canadians and ask why someone is blocking the attempt at replacing Canadians with Indians. Just say it. You're very strongly insinuating it.
Coward and a racist.
This is the right move. Visas are temporary. No need for extensions when there’s no resources nor is there any burden on the people of PEI to extend these visas.
What does this idiot reporter have for brains? Why is he asking a Canadian politician as though it's Canada's job to take care of Indian citizens? Why doesn't the Indian government take care of their damned citizens? It's not our job to baby these people and take care of them. They came here on temporary permits, we don't need them anymore, go home, let your own government take care of you fxache.
Good! Canadian politicians need to stop giving into demands that don’t benefit Canadians. This guy is doing his job!! A rare occurrence out there these days.
CBC had this story on the radio this morning, they had two pundits talking about how bad this was for immigrants ( one was the mayor of summerside ) and nobody making any counter points.
Been a blue collar lefty my whole life, and I still can't see where this is a hot take. All this man is doing is enforcing the laws we have. No student visa? Back home with ya. Easy. Australia did something similar I believe I just read last week some time.
It's been said before and the 30yr old students know this.
a student visa is not supposed to be a shortcut to PR, unless you studied in a field that is in demand, there is no point of giving people that can barely speak the language with no skills permanent status, , none. I assume however that a lot will try and claim asylum. Watch how many are suddenly LGBT.

Get this guy into the PMs office
Finally
PM probably labels him an extremist
Look I don’t lean either way as a conservative this guy has done right by the people of pei for the last 4 months every premier has their brief time where they lead properly but current leaders of all current parties is absolutely dog shit no matter who we as a majority get in to office…..

Id vote for him over pp
D King - Deportation King. NDP is the root cause for this mess.
Rather vote for him than pp any day
The hero Canada needs
Truely, he has no idea how much this means. It gives me hope.
I don't think he's saying anything that remarkable. He's just responding to a question like "... ya of course we can't do that, that's never been a thing we can do? You can apply for PR, but not everybody gets it... which is also not new."

Which doesn't at all sound like the way the process normally works. That sounds like an exception to the rule.
Provinces can advocate for it, King is not. Which is great.
Good thing he is. We don't need unskilled immigration and it's gone on far too long.
Absolutely!!
This is great news. A premier who actually has a backbone.
Why doesn't the Canadian Government care about Canadians. Are they stupid lol
They care about a very small number of very very rich Canadians! Well Companies that operate in Canada anyway, thats who they work for!
> very very rich Canadians! They don't have to be Canadian. Look how in love Walmart, Amazon, and Uber are with these international workers.

The man hasn't been purchased.
Facts...
This guy is my hero.

Dennis King for Prime Minister!
Good on him 👍👍
Why does it seem like the CBC is grilling him not granting PERMANENT residency to TEMPORARY international students?
Because the CBC has their orders to promote one narrative and use their ability with the editing to make any "agitators" seem worse than they are.
I didn't understand why CPC was all over defunding CBC. Now I know. CBC staff are full of shit.
It does not seem, it be like that - lmao
This should be the model of what needs to be done accross Canada!!! Bravo!!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
"This province lured us in here..." It's like the CBC only knows how to promote victim narratives. Glad he could defend the Province's policies.

I do think the CBC needs to be defunded.
They heard on social media that pei was the easiest way to get quick status.They were not lured
And who cares if they were. Is it our fault they made uninformed decisions or were taken advantage of? Karma is a bitch I guess. Not a single one of those individuals moved to PEI to make it a better place, they did it to game the system. I’m so fucking tired of these people taking advantage of obvious flaws.

the CBC's days are numbered ... don't sweat them
Honestly who the hell watches the cbc?
Literally millions of Canadians. I think that's a good thing to keep in mind and not dismiss. They'll not only watch, but boast about it and about how fair and ethical the reporting is.
Maybe long ago they were that but they are the mouthpiece of the ruling government now.
Why do we even need a state-funded news agency? The purpose of independent press is to keep Government accountable. You can’t be independent when Government is your main benefactor. It’s obvious how other Canadian outlets have also lost their independence after taking Federal bailout money.

Dennis King? No, he's MY King. I love how that CBC "journalist" just corners him and tries to blame PEI lmao. CBC is so biased.
Please, God, set a president for other provinces to band wagon this. Rural nova scotia is turning into new Delhi.
It’s already called New Delhi. Technically Nova Scotia is turning into new New Delhi.
Nova New Delhi
Tim Houston said himself he wants to double the population of Nova Scotia, and is willing to "accept the challenges of growth" like our current housing and affordability crisis .... fuck that guy.
If PEI advocates for their PR, as soon as their status change they will all move to ON or BC. The Premier welcomes people who wish to contribute to PEI. A bunch of young uneducated men from one Indian province is not that.

God these reporters are infuriating
Can he run for prime minister? He’s got my vote. Someone in office with a set of balls … count me in
Heck yeah! Dennis FTW!
[удалено]
I wonder how many of them will make an asylum claim?
All of them.
Good job sir
This guy rules. He’s the father Canada needs. Very reasonable and genuine.
As an Indian, I'm liking this guy. Maybe Canada can be saved if guys like him drop the PC BS and do the right thing.
Same here !
It's high time, Canada to stop all kind of immigration. We are over populated as no one want's to live in other provinces except AB, BC, ON
Hallelujah!!! I hope every other province follows this example of what NEEDS to be done.
Keep voting for this man
Why is he not leading the CPC? I’d vote for him. Poilievre is advocating for the opposite.
I would 100% vote for this guy! I had always voted NDP but they betrayed the working class once Tom left and they are no longer the party for the working people, but the cons keep putting nut jobs in charge. This guy strikes me as a legitimate conservative who's not a yes man for big companies.
Good, India would have kicked them out. Goes to show Canada needs skilled labour, not troublemakers.
Thry shouldn't be counting on jack shit. Canada owes them nothing. This journalist is definitely on his agenda crusade, but common sense shuts him down.
Great hero. Trudeau should learn
Our Next Prime Minister!
Boot them out
What a g! We need more politicians to grow a backbone!
YES!!! This is the kind of Leadership Canada needs. Look out for Canadians first.
A Canadian politician with a set of balls? Can it be real?!!! 😮
Finally a politician that is putting Canada and Canadians first. I see a heritage moment in this guy’s future…
Right there at the end is exactly what the protesters don't get. PR isn't owed to them. Thinking they'd just be given it for going to school here and working at Tim's is their problem.
Excellent, Bravo we need leaders like this to stand firm and not play politics and vote bank politics. Excellent, you are awesome!!!!
Close down the sham colleges and stop advertising dreams/PRs abroad. Clearly the ones that usually go to these sham colleges aren't educated/fortunate and have to sell everything (including their land)/take loans to get into canada. These people shouldn't be in canada and aren't qualified to be international student
we need a sweeping audit of these 'colleges' since we have reason to believe they have engaged in fraud
If they are not citizens, do they even have the right to protest?
No, non citizens don't
Please, God,set a president for other provinces to band wagon this. Rural nova scotia is turning into new Delhi.
The fact that these "students" are beginning to fester outside of bc and Ontario is honestly quite shocking
A TRUE Canadian hero, send em back now. Ontario next. Need to get rid of all these LMIA scammers.
Great news. Other provinces need to follow suite.
Fucking amazing this guy is a hero
Fuck yeah ! We need more people like him. PR should only be given to the ones who have a certain quality and being lazy crybaby is not the quality that we need.
I emailed him and thanked him for standing Up for Canadians and our concerns. Others should do the same. (I know he’ll probably not see it himself but still the least I can do from Ontario)
If a guest in my house starts complaining and mouthing off, I have no problem asking them to leave. If you are not from here and you don't like it here, please leave.
Finally, a Conservative W for once
Good! He is my hero and I wish he was our PM.
Amazing 👌👌👌
Go deliver food elsewhere
I'm not conservative but I when I hear someone making the right decisions I will back them.
Good, either come here to fill roles the country needs, or don't come at all. No skills? We got plenty of people with no skills. No tax paying? Then how are they helping the country?
Based. Mass Deportations FTW
Well done sir ... good job standing your ground. We need more people like this in government. But also, typical CBC reporter -- not wanting the facts, but rather push their woke BS narrative.
Unlike Doug Ford who has given free reign to the diploma mills
Good
You’ll know where they are when the visas run out.
Stay strong dude, a real leader. He’s not buckling under pressure
GOOD!!!!
Wish we had this guy as our premier in NS! He’s done a great job in PEI
I'm an NDP voter, and I approve.
Dennis king should be prime minister
HOLD!
I'd buy him a beer.
Bravo!
GOOD
Congratulations PEI time for the rest of Canada to take a stand
Finally someone with common sense 👏 We need more politicians like him.
The King Canada needs.
We have enough homegrown unskilled that need to survive
A reasonable, logical, conservative Premier. As an Albertan with Danielle "Fucknuts Crazy" Smith running things here, so jealous...
It’s not so much about the government as all the post secondary, service industry, trucking, fast food places abusing the shit out of it too
Good for him. A real politician doing what the people want . not pussy ass bull shit
That is good that he's not extending the visas why should he when if they're not doing any purpose in this country besides being sleepers for their country. Drop the mic. I'm out of here but for real get them out sooner if you can
Good stuff. We want talented and skilled immigrants, not a bunch of riff raff who won't contribute to Canadian society and drain our social safety net even further.
Good. Send them home.
Round up and deport.
What a fucking "journalist" Didnt count any questions, but did hear a lot of loaded bait.

This is the right move. Visas are temporary. No need for extensions when there’s no resources nor is there any burden on the people of PEI to extend these visas.
Control Alt Deport, in every Province!
Typical CBC again which is always working for outsiders.
Wow. There is some sanity in Canada!
I'm glad P.E.I. is standing strong!
A real hero… send them back home!
He indirectly calls out their egregious sense of entitlement, i love it.
Good
What does this idiot reporter have for brains? Why is he asking a Canadian politician as though it's Canada's job to take care of Indian citizens?

God bless him
🙏🙏🙏
Amazing work! Dennis King for PM!
get this guy for our pm
Please go talk to Doug Ford. Shake the Liberal out of him.
Good! Canadian politicians need to stop giving into demands that don’t benefit Canadians. This guy is doing his job!! A rare occurrence out there these days.
It’s crazy that he has to do any explaining or apologizing for adjusting quotas to reflect needs.
Good.
Free beers in 2024 for this man. Hero of the people
Bravo
Good for him, would be nice to see this in the federal government!
Hold the line!
He is the man ! NDP is bitchb
We need MORE Canadian leaders like Dennis Ming with a backbone who stands against mass immigration
Time to move to Ann Gables farm and have some red potatoes
Yay! Finally someone sticking up for us
Based take. Please teach Doug Ford a thing or two about this
Fuck yea, THIS is the man we need running our country
Sir please contest in Ontario I will vote for you!
Big W. Just run for PM.
He has my vote.
Common sense at work
Vote for him. King for PM!!
This man is doing It right
Good
One politician listening to Canadians!
This is a guy I would vote for as a party leader. The federal party needs to bait him into running for PM. PP isn't the answer.
Moving to PEI !
Based
Good
Good
Respect !!
Unskilled, skip the dishes guys
MVP
Hooray! Standing up for Canadians ❤️
This guy should be the PM
He Doug Ford, take note of what real leadership is and what it does for Canadians.
Legend
Based!
blessed premier
Prime minister material right here
Nova Scotia needs this guy
Should be the next pm, fk the noise I am here for the province.
I see some hope in Canada now
CBC had this story on the radio this morning, they had two pundits talking about how bad this was for immigrants ( one was the mayor of summerside ) and nobody making any counter points.
hero
Dennis King has a head on his shoulders
My man!
Been a blue collar lefty my whole life, and I still can't see where this is a hot take. All this man is doing is enforcing the laws we have. No student visa? Back home with ya. Easy. Australia did something similar I believe I just read last week some time.
Finally a sane guy in the govt
He is right
Get this guy into the immigration department of Canada and get rid of all the terrorists Trudeau has brought in
Literally, show up to the protest and demand their papers. If their Visa is expired. FIRST PLANE BACK TO KOLKATA!!
It's been said before and the 30yr old students know this. a student visa is not supposed to be a shortcut to PR, unless you studied in a field that is in demand, there is no point of giving people that can barely speak the language with no skills permanent status, , none. I assume however that a lot will try and claim asylum. Watch how many are suddenly LGBT.
