Annotation

Overpopulation dystopia in which millions of refugees are being moved to the supposedly empty areas of the world, like northern Canada. There are plans to ship future refugees into space as slave labor. Climate-change is part of the reason for needing to move people. Canada has fragmented, and it is no longer possible to move freely among the provinces.
