Immigration is a worldwide phenomenon. Canada is an increasingly
ethnically diverse country. Canada’s reflection of ethnic diversity is due to the
increasing flow of immigration. The vast majority of Canadians are born in
Canada, and most of them are from European descent.
Close to, half of all immigrants that came to Canada between 1991 and
1996 reveal a first language other than French or English. During this time,
many immigrants came from Asia and the Middle East. It’s been reported
that 29 percent of Canadians have more than one ethnic origin. Native
peoples make up about 3 percent and blacks about 2 percent of the
Canada has an open immigration program that accepts newcomers
approximately from every other country in the world. The estimated population
Immigration is important in maintaining Canada’s population. The
current childbearing generation has smaller families than earlier generations:
the fertility rate is 1.6, less than the population replacement rate of 2.1. At
the same time, older people are living longer, so that the average age of the
population is higher...

Immigration to Canada
On the subject of putting more or less restrictions on migration, I would have to say that
putting more restrictions would be necessary. I feel that if we let in people under low
sercomstances more and more unemployed people will migrate to Canada.
The first thing that I would like to discuss is unemployment with many of our
immigrants. Most immigrants have a degree in a profession or in a field of work that is suitable
for their home countries lifestyle. If a person of high skill in a country were to come here and not
have the degrees or knowledge needed to work in that profession in Canada they would not get
the job, and they would have to get that certain degree. This would probably mean that they
. . .
This can harm our society , and we
wouldn't even know what happened. If we didn't check who is coming in, we are leaving the gate open to whoever wants to
come in.
When an immigrant immigrates to Canada unemployed with no work ethics, they tend to
live off of welfare. For these migrants to come into Canada and
not work is a strain on society. So in conclusion I say that we need more thorough background checks to see who we are
letting in. This can aggravate racism and it puts a threat on the area. If one particular culture was living in a specific area
and then a new group, or culture, came in, the other culture may feel threatened.
Immigration with less restrictions means that anybody can come in. This means that Taxes will go up, and that the people already
living there and earning a living, will have to pay the government to pay these migrants that
aren't working. This is
unfair to our society because they are paying the government to pay them the money in which to
live, and they arrant working to get it.
would live on welfare if they do not get the degree. If we did a thorough background
check, we would know who to let in and who not to. They are basically taking advantage of getting money without working.
Immigration can also foster racism.
