LOL do you even live in Canada? You must be aware that we're a shrinking country without immigration.

I dunno about the retirement thing, but as for having kids... it's just expensive I think. Its damn expensive to raise a kid in Canada. Especially for a working person / unemployed. So here we are, not having kids. The government has noticed, and so the dominant government policy is to maintain capitalistic conditions through immigration of new people; new labour to help boost 'economic growth'. It's a real thing, a long term government strategy.
