Did you expect me to use a pro-Immigration site to back up my argument?
You can find all the sources for their information down below if you really have that much of an issue with it. At the end of the day you're entitled to your own opinion, but the idea that "Immigration has no impact on our economy" is just, well, wrong.
For example, I know plenty of Canadian immigrants and our system requires that they cannot go longer than 30 days without work (unless they have a reasonable excuse), and to even be considered for immigration to Canada there is an extremely strenuous vetting process that ensures the immigrants will be able to contribute to our society and not simply come here and soak up resources. One of my high school teachers had a wife who was coming over from Russia. Despite being married to a Canadian it took her multiple years (over 3 if I remember correctly) to be able to relocate.
In fact, here's a pro-Immigration site for you.

and yet they still admit:

But not all taxpayers benefit equally. In regions with large populations of less educated, low-income immigrants, native-born residents bear significant net costs due to immigrants’ use of public services, especially education.

which is my biggest point. There's nothing wrong with being more selective over who is accepted and who isn't.
