Immigration Watch Canada (IWC) is a Vancouver-based anti-immigration non-profit[1] organization and website founded by Dan B. Murray, a former teacher.[2] IWC lobbies for limiting immigration to 25,000 annually.[3][4][5]: 34
The group would not receive media coverage until 2014, when a small number of anti-immigration flyers and posters bearing IWC's name and website address were distributed to selected areas in Brampton and Toronto, Ontario. Further single-day incidents of limited distributions occurred in Richmond, British Columbia, in 2016 and in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, in August, 2018. The message of the posters was denounced by the media. Murray distanced himself from some of the incidents, claiming that the IWC had not authorized certain posters that were "vulgar."[citation needed] In November 2014, six IWC members in Richmond held an anti-immigration protest blaming immigrants for traffic congestion and an unsustainable increase in the cost of housing in B.C.'s Lower Mainland.[citation needed]

In the settler societies of North America and Oceania, countries where immigration is central to narratives of national identity (albeit narratives which obscure the history of racial exclusion), representing immigrants as a cultural threat is a more difficult discursive project. Canada conspicuously lacks a nativist tradition or significant white supremacist parties. Immigration Watch Canada, the most prominent group lobbying for restrictions on immigration, is moderate by both European and American standards.
