Canada, is well known for being immigration friendly over the course of history and it is an ideology that Canadians value. Immigration offers an opportunity for Canadians to seal in crevasses within the Canadian economy and stabilizes it from leaks which causes inflations and recessions. However, as opportunity presents itself, trade-offs are likely to follow. Today, Canadians are facing challenges regarding unemployment rates as well as increases in the cost of living.

Immigrants today now have the privilege of entering and residing in Canada but along with this privilege, there are also barriers that impede their integration and deprive them of equal opportunity in the society. The undervaluing of foreign education and credentials has emerged over the years as a huge obstacle faced by recent immigrants who seek employment in the areas that they have been trained, and worked in for decades in their respective home countries. For years, newcomers in Canada have been denied inclusion into the Canadian labour market simply because of policies that were

While Canada offers multiple programs for the purpose of aiding refugees and giving them a fresh start, a lot of employers complained about the shortage of labor. However, whether or not the reported labor shortage was factual or not can be disputed to this day. In fact, employer groups reported difficulties when it came to hiring worker that were suitable, while substantial wage increases, unemployed workers, and job vacancies with both refugees and immigrants were discrepancies that were scarcely documented. Despite this, Canada has been working to set up the Start Visa program, while suspending the Federal Entrepreneur and Immigrant Investor programs, for the purpose of attracting further innovation and investment into the country.

Canada is a country that is known as a "mosaic" of people and cultures, meaning; it opens it arms to immigrant families and gives them the freedom to express their own cultural values, ideas, beliefs and customs. It is this system that welcomes thousands and thousands of immigrants a year with open arms and the idea of a better life. This idea however, is sometimes not always as easy as it is thought to be. Though Canada is an amazing country for immigrants to start a new life and get better education, health care, and job opportunities, immigrant families are met with many challenges before they are able to become accustom to their new life. It is important to understand the true difficulty of the "Immigrant Experience" and the impact it has on families including adults as well as children. If it is easier to understand the difficulties immigrant families go through in search of a better life in Canada there can be more resources made to help them. It is important to take into consideration each individual difficulty that is faced and properly research each factor in order to have a better understanding on how to make the complete economic and societal integration of immigrants happen faster. There is a number of categories that relate to the integration of immigrants into society and a number of steps they must take to be a part of Canadian society.

Moreover, due to non-recognition of foreign credentials, new immigrants face big barrier to obtain work in their field in Canada (Garcia, et al., p. 196). Although foreign credentials are evaluated by recognizing stakeholders like OES, U of T etc. but the employers do not consider these evaluations. They rely only upon degrees obtained in Canada. In addition to that, different stakeholders have different attitudes to credential and certification (Garcia, et al., p. 196) and are concerned with recognizing foreign credentials. Although the government encourages interprovincial labour mobility, but immigrants feel discouraged to relocate due to the varying credential recognition process, which in turn decreases their employability.

The Canadian immigration is the set of rules, regulations, directives, guidelines, policies and the Act of Parliament that regulates the entry of each individual into Canada. It could be for the purpose of settling there. This has been a feature of the ancient times, when the ancestors of Canada 's native peoples migrated from Asia by land via Beringia or by sea via the Japanese current, as it is of the present day, when immigrants from around the world come to this country in thousands.
