CHANDIGARH: Indian-origin Liberal Party Member of Parliament for Nepean Chandra Arya announced on Thursday that he would join the race to become the next Prime Minister of Canada.
Arya in his social media post on X said, “I am running to be the next Prime Minister of Canada to lead a small, more efficient government to rebuild our nation and secure prosperity for future generations. We are facing significant structural problems that haven’t been seen for generations and solving them will require tough choices. I have always worked hard for what is best for Canadians, and for the sake of our children and grandchildren, we must make bold decisions that are absolutely necessary.”
“If elected as the next Leader of the Liberal Party I offer my knowledge and expertise to do so. We have a perfect storm: Many Canadians, especially younger generations, face significant affordability issues. The working middle class is struggling today, and many working families are retiring directly into poverty. Canada deserves leadership that isn’t afraid to make the big decisions. Decisions that rebuild our economy, restore hope, create equal opportunities for all Canadians, and secure prosperity for our children and grandchildren. Bold political decisions are not optional—they are necessary. With prudence and pragmatism as my guiding principles, I’m stepping forward to take on this responsibility and lead Canada as its next Prime Minister. Join me in this journey. Let’s rebuild, revitalize, and secure the future. For all Canadians, for generations to come. More details, including my policy proposals, are in the statement next in the thread,” he added.
In his statement, he added,“We have too many unqualified cheap labor as temporary residents thus allowing businesses not to invest to improve productivity and they also contribute to housing crises. Today the number of temporary residents gaining our lenient asylum system has exploded. Going forward immigration will be limited to meet our economic growth needs specifically to skilled trades like electricians and carpenters for the housing sector and talented engineers for advanced technology sector. Many immigrants now see Canada as a fly-by country, treating citizenship and our passports as a backup plan rather than a commitment to our nation. Canadian citizenship is a privilege and not a convenience,’’ he said.
