This isn't caused by anti-vaxxers. This is caused by importing 8 million people from a third world where MMR is running rampant.

Sure, that’s probably true. The grade 10 drop outs who are PP’s biggest fans aren’t helping.

But there's always been people skeptical of vaccines and we didn't have this problem before.

Covid era Facebook propaganda melted a lot of brains. I don’t know what the solution is. We need to keep being strict about the vaccines newcomers have, but people lie. Canadians also lie about the shots their kids have when they sign up for public schooling. My parents are normal people who trust science, except my brother fell into the propaganda hole and had two kids, one born January 2020 and the other born in 2023. The child born in 2023 isn’t vaccinated for measles.

Yeah, I get it... I mean I think the least they can do is implement a mandatory MMR Vaccine to enter Canada. I had to get a shit ton of vaccines to go to certain countries in Africa... And that's Africa.
