Shuswap as a part of a new immigration program
While people have been distracted by multiple political and other events {save ostriches}, the federal government has decided to flood rural communities with migrants, even the government is prorogued.
January 30, 2025 Marc Miller {born in Quebec}, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship, announced the launch of the Rural Community Immigration Pilot and the Francophone Community Immigration Pilot, and the communities chosen to participate. These pilots will provide 18 communities with a permanent residence pathway to attract and retain newcomers who can fill key jobs and who want to live long-term in these areas, as committed to in March 2024.
“Rural and Francophone communities are vital to Canada’s growth and cultural diversity, and we value the unique contributions that newcomers make in these places. By welcoming skilled immigrants to these areas, we are addressing labour shortages and economic needs while promoting the benefits of living in a smaller town or city. Our commitment to supporting these regions reflects our belief that each one matters. That is why we will make the RNIP a permanent program, and why we are introducing these two new pilots. We’ll continue to work closely with these communities as we work to connect businesses with the skilled workers they need to thrive.” Marc Miller.
Each selected community is represented by a local economic development organization, which will work with Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) to identify its critical labour gaps, designate trustworthy employers and recommend suitable candidates to IRCC for permanent residence. IRCC has begun training the economic development organizations, and each community will provide details and timelines on when employers and prospective permanent residence candidates can expect to have a chance to apply.
The following communities will participate in the Rural Community Immigration Pilot (RCIP):
Pictou County, NS; North Bay, ON; Sudbury, ON; Timmins, ON; Sault Ste. Marie, ON; Thunder Bay, ON; Steinbach, MB; Altona/Rhineland, MB; Brandon, MB; Moose Jaw, SK; Claresholm, AB; West Kootenay, BC; North Okanagan Shuswap, BC; Peace Liard, BC.
Back on August 8, 2024 in an interview, Danielle Smith declares she wants to double Alberta’s population to 10 million through more newcomers! Did she know about this program before or she was referring to something else? She said:” Let’s have an aggressive target to double our population.”

What kind of immigrants we will get? How many people are ready to move in? It is this program just single plan, or is part of something bigger? Perhaps great replacement theory, by which white European populations at large are being demographically and culturally replaced by non-white peoples, especially from Asia and Africa through mass migration, demographic growth and a drop in the birth rate of white Europeans in Europe and North America?
As US commentator Tucker Carlson claimed that liberal Democrats were attempting to replace republican voters {mostly white Christians} with immigrants from “Third World” (developing) countries in order to create a permanent electoral majority loyal to the Democratic party. It is something similar going on here with Liberals and NDP?
