A large number of immigrants are flooding into Niagara Falls, and the mayor warns: the city is on the verge of collapse!
Mayor Jim Diodati of Niagara Falls recently stated that the city of Niagara Falls is at a "critical point," with tens of thousands of asylum seekers flooding this famous tourist city. This well-known city in southeastern Ontario has more immigrants per capita than any other city in Canada.
He pointed out that the surge in immigrants is putting immense pressure on the city's services, hospitals, and schools. He added: "Our shelters are full, our transitional housing is full, and drug problems have reached unprecedented levels."
He also mentioned that many of the approximately 15,000 hotel rooms in the city have already become temporary accommodations for immigrants waiting for their asylum applications to be processed. This situation is affecting the hotel industry and other local businesses.
However, he now worries that as U.S. President Trump tightens immigration policies, a large number of illegal immigrants may cross the border from the United States to Canada, leading to a new wave of immigration in the country and the city.
The influx of immigrants is occupying local "low-rent" housing resources, reducing housing options for local residents.
He also pointed out that the surge in immigrants has impacted tourism, affecting the business of high-end restaurants, as many hotels are occupied by immigrants who cannot afford expensive dining costs.
The mayor warned that if more border crossers flood in, Niagara Falls will suffer "devastating impacts."
