I have no idea how much of the fraction of newcomers
admitted into our country are not gay. But I guess vast
majority of immigrants from India and China are not woke
by Canadian standard and are more likely to be family oriented
oriented in the traditional sense.

I've read something like Canada's population is targeted to
rise to somewhere in 70 to 100 million in maybe 30 to 40
years. If that target is met I think foreign born citizens could
become a substantial segment if not the majority of the total
population for some decades.
You seem to forget, YOU, along with 80% of Canadians come from immigrants to this country,, anyone in your family come from the British eles after the second world war??

No, it isn’t plausible.
Canada is already 20% foreign-born. To reach ~50% by 2060, that share would have to more than double which is something no StatsCan projection even comes close to.
Even high-immigration scenarios only reach ~35–40%.
You’d need immigration well above 2023 levels every single year for 30–40 years straight, with no political, economic, or housing pullback.
You’re also ignoring that immigrants’ children are Canadian-born, which actually slows the foreign-born percentage.
The only way 50% works is if you quietly switch from “foreign-born” to “immigrants + their kids”, which is a different claim.
Canadians are all immigrants, other than the native people

PM Diefenbaker in 1967: "Macdonald and Cartier agreed in the British monarchical system."

"They opposed republicanism and what they called American domination."

"They decided to build a Canada here. First, foremost, and always."

"I say in this Canada, one and undivided, a Canadian I was born, a Canadian I will die."
Well he's dead, so that's not a problem.

I myself am an immigrant. I was born and grew up outside Canada. I emigrated
here as an adult and was granted citizenship when I was in my late 20s.

If you were born in Canada then you were born in Canada regardless
of where your parents and your ancestors were born.

I am a Canadian citizen who was once a permanent resident in
the country. I am entitled to the same rights and privileges as
a Canadian citizens who was born here. I am sure any immigration
officers can tell when I was an immigrant and when I was not.
The origin of my parents are irrelevant.
