Also, I know that Canada has a larger land mass, so more people, better money coming in for government to waste it on stuff we don't need (sarcastically spoken). haha!
Could it be the fact that Britian can't support more immigrants coming in. Honestly 800,000 seems like a lot of immigrants who cannot speak English. Sounds like something that happened with Canada with the French... then Canada became Bilingual.
