Torontonian Dept: By comparison, 32 per cent of the broader Torontonian population felt the same way, according to Globe And Mail. At a debate at the University of Toronto last week, Mr. Ford pointed to extensive waiting lists for social housing and family doctors: Better for the city to eliminate those lineups, he argued, before accepting anyone else and a Nanos poll done for The Globe, CTV and CP24 found 48.8 per cent of Ford supporters either disagree or somewhat disagree with the statement “Toronto would benefit from welcoming more new Canadians to the city.” It’s a view Mr. Ford himself has espoused, arguing in multiple debates that Toronto simply “doesn’t have room” to accept any more newcomers. His rival candidates have shot back that this is tantamount to xenophobia, especially problematic in a city where half the population is comprised of immigrants. As
reported in the news.
