Canadian Immigration System

Justin Trudeau’s liberal party made the moral and accurate decision to admit the Syrian refugees into Canada. This decision was based on the morals to provide safety towards innocent victims of war. This decision should be seen as morally justified by all Canadians. Although there are some practice issues that must be resolved in order to give them an equal and equitable life in Canada.

Throughout the last three decades, increasing numbers of Asians have migrated to Canada from all over the Asian continent. Currently, 44% of the Vancouver area population is of Asian descent (Statistics Canada, 2001). Immigrants commonly occupy skilled job positions that the host nation is unable to fill with its own citizens, and thus they offer many advantages to their receiving country. In a nation with a declining birthrate, such as Canada, their contribution can play a major role on multiple levels. The immigrants themselves often enjoy a greater earning potential than they did in their native country, which can be advantageous for those who wish to send money back home to support their families.

As we all know, Canada is an immigrant country. This beautify country attract more and more people who are longing for good future. In 2011, the population of foreign-born in Canada is about 6.7 million. No matter where we are from and what background we have, from the moment we land in Canada as immigrants, there are some problems we need to face to. The commonest three problems are learning a new language, adjusting to a new life-style, and finding a suitable job.

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

The study states that the second generation immigrants are an essential part of the Canadian society, however they have not been studied enough. Immigration was resurging and thus it is critical that the impact of the second generation immigrants be studied at length. Many studies have been done regarding the economic impact that second generation immigrants have on Canada, however their educational attainment has been ignored. In general, it can be stated that second generation immigrants fare much better in terms of education attainment than native of Canada, this difference can be partly explained by the second generation’s mother tongue, however there is still a humongous difference that can be clearly seen. By the age of 13, it has been observed that immigrant children are at the same educational level or higher than those that are Canadian natives. This can be explained by immigrant parents’ higher expectations when it comes to their children’s education and their perspective when it comes to education. The data that was collected is from Statistics Canada and it looks at second generation immigrants from ages 25-65, and the data encompassed about 11,983 males. Second generation immigrants have a lower high school drop out rate, than natives and tend to go to post secondary institutions, such as colleges and universities, rather than going straight to work, without a degree. This study shows that the Canadian immigration system has been able to favorably select immigrants whose children fare the same or much better than their native Canadian counterparts. The study concludes that second generation immigrants are able to keep up with the native Canadians, by the age of 13 and tend to do even better than these Canadians. This can be explained by the second generation immigrants’ willingness to work hard in order to succeed

Immigration has grown to become a big aspect in today’s society in Canada. Most cities have welcomed immigration, although mainly portrayed in bigger cities. Immigration in Canada has come with its share of pros as well as its share of cons. The pros with the immigration in Canada starts off with the racial blending of persons in the community, giving future generations a more positive outlook towards equality for all races because they grow up in a world that, for them, hasn’t seen racial and cultural inequality. In my opinion, in a world where children aren’t aware of the cultural and racial inequalities that had been put forth in the generations before them is an enormous strength to immigration for the fact that every person has a right to life and liberty and to have those ideas implanted in the generations to come is detrimental to a working society. Cons found in immigration in Canada fall in employment. The more people immigrate to Canada, the more jobs are being filled leaving others without any. The Immigration Refugee Board is able to offer a wide

Canada has always been recognized as an accepting and “go-to” country in crisis. However, in recent years, there have been changes. Refugee legislation has become extremely strict, qualifications for refugees have become unfair, and limitations regarding what Canada offers refugees have been set.

Throughout many years, people from various countries throughout the world have immigrated to other countries for their own life necessities. Some countries provide a minimize of the things people need, so they come to the conclusion that finding another home with better options might be better for their lives. The United States having the most immigrants with 44 million, and Ukraine having the most emigrants with 6.6 million for different reasons. Many people go through tough phases during their existence in their own countries, wanting to live a better life with, and for their family members. The number of immigrants that come to Canada in a year is 250 000. But why is it that people immigrant to Canada? Canada provides 3 major

The Immigration System in Canada has system has impacted over millions of people positively but, mostly negatively therefore, I am against the idea that the Canadian Immigration System is fair. The Points System is one of the most common ways of getting into Canada, however, it is the one of the hardest based on the skills you have and, all the components in the system are interchanged, making it really hard for someone to even get a chance to get in. For example, in the “Who Gets In?” sheet, most of the people like So Jung Li are under qualification for their submission due to these major factors all depending upon each other. The age of the individual can affect if they have graduated high school, furthermore, all this piles on top of and impacts education, which determines if

Canada is a very generous country when it comes to immigrants. In 2014 Canada welcomed 265,000 new permanent residents. Canada's immigration system is very secure and prevents any terrorist from entering our country and at the same time has one of the number of immigrants every year. Canada also has a great point system because the majority of immigrants Canada takes in are skilled workers and this helps Canada's economy a lot.Canada relies on immigrants a lot because there are many elderly and not enough young people who are working to pay for the care of the elderly and Canada's fertility rate is decreasing and we can't just tell people to have more baby's since the cost of raising a child is increasingly getting higher with the 21 century, so to get more people to pay the taxes we turn to immigration and Canada needs many immigrants to balance things out.

The Tamil community is a relatively new group. Some Tamils settled in Canada as early as the 1960s, coming as independent immigrants. “The vast majority, however, arrived in Canada after 1983 in the aftermath of the 1983 Colombo riots in Sri Lanka.” In 1983, the Canadian government took Tamils into Canada under humanitarian and compassionate consideration. At the same time, a visa requirement was imposed on Sri Lankans, making it very difficult to get here legally. In 1986, Minister 's permits were granted to some refugees allowing them to remain in Canada. Today Tamils continue to make up one of the largest group of refugees seeking asylum in Canada. Ten percent of the persons seeking asylum in Canada in 1999 originated from Sri Lanka.

From the year 1991 to 2011, when young immigrants arrived, they have lower employment rate than the one of the Canadian-born individuals. The worsen conditions have happened in recent years. For example, in 1991, the first year since migration has employment rate at 0.397 while the average of young employment rate at 0.590. However in 2011, youth immigrants’ employment rate low to 0.296

With scholars such as Kerry L. Preibisch (The Other Side of el Otro Lado: Mexican Migrant Women and Labor Flexibility in Canadian Agriculture), Ronaldo Munck (Globalization, Migration and Work: Issues and Perspectives), and Parrenas R. S. (Servants of Globalization: Migration and Domestic Work) all argue that the power the employer has in selecting which migrant workers they want based on nationality or sex. In turn, has created a competition among the labor-supply of countries. And between the workers themselves based on social hierarchy, which both race and gender are prominent. However, these articles perspectives have not adequately addressed the issue of the relationship between how labour migration and the current economic policy in effect by the Canadian government the CSAWP has on migrant workers. My paper addresses the issue of migrant’s workers face in the agricultural sector in Ontario but with particular attention with regards to the recent changes in economic policies set by the Canadian government. Specifically, in my paper, I will be looking at the challenges of migrating to Canada, and the lack of fundamental rights of becoming a Canadian citizen, to show the difficulties that migrants face of being less mobile today than in the past. I will discuss the power that employers have the choice of picking the migrant worker that they want in Canada. The type of labour mobility they have within the workforce in Canada and juxtapose them against the current economic policies enforced by the Canadian Government to reveal the previously misunderstood connections between migrant workers and the challenges they face on a daily

The mobility status for all ages in 2001 displays close values with 2.0% of Manitobans and 2.9% of Albertans determined as external migrants who came from another country since 1996 (“Canadians On The Move”; “Mobility 5: Mobility Status – place of residence 5 years ago, 2001 census”). Similarly, the immigrant status only had a 2.8% difference in the population between the two provinces with Alberta in the lead at 14.9% and Manitoba at 12.1% (“Immigration and Citizenship”). The percentage of the population with knowledge of both official languages was also close together in value with Manitoba and Alberta at 9.3% and 6.9% respectively; the English-only speakers were at 89.7% for Manitoba and 92.0% for Alberta while the French-only speakers were at 0.1% of the population for both provinces (“Language Composition of Canada”). Likewise, the age structure for both sexes of the population from a 100% sample data

The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedom also prevents discrimination against religious and cultural values that immigrants may have brought with them from their home country. Foreigners are also encouraged to immigrate to Canada. While this may look good on paper, in reality, equality seems to dissipate when it comes to wages. Statistic Canada has discovered that immigrants do not receive the same wages as their Canadian counterpart. For the same level of education and work experience, an average of male immigrant workers earn 50% or less salary than Canadian-born males and female immigrant workers earn approximately 44% of their white counterpart’s salary. The reason for the differentiation between immigrant workers and Canadian-born workers is because experience and education received in foreign countries are not recognised in Canada. The immigrant workers are also at a vulnerable state as they are desperate to find work to support their new life in Canada. The bourgeoisies are able justify exploitation because of this notion of not recognizing immigrant worker’s education and experience, and the vulnerability of immigrant worker to gain same level of work for a cheaper price. Some companies also take the risk of employing illegal immigrants who are determined to find whatever employment they can, in order to save cost on workers. The bourgeoisies
