This photo depicts a high degree of ethnic nepotism which seems especially bad among Indians who seem to run fast food outlets and security businesses. Many will soon sponsor elderly family members to join them, creating further strain on our crumbling socialized healthcare. Canada has imported a large number of people from India to work at low productivity minimum wage jobs which historically went to our youth. They now don't get those jobs because there seems to be an infinite supply of temporary foreign workers from India. This is not the way to power a high productivity modern economy.
