Thanks for relaying this concern. I can't say I agree with the characterization, however. For example, here are links to recent national media coverage https://www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/article-more-small-towns-in-canada-will-be-able-to-choose-which-immigrants-can/ https://www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/article-opioid-crisis-canada-small-towns/ https://www.tvo.org/video/why-a-northern-city-reversed-its-english-only-policy. Can you reconsider? Capped22 (talk) 17:26, 4 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi Capped22. The characterisation is a reflection of Wikipedia guidelines. Moreover, it's not for me to reconsider. You could make appropriate changes to the article to incorporate material supported by citations such as those you mention, then resubmit the article for review. Thanks.
