Challenges Of Immigration To Canada

The pace of immigration in the contemporary scenario has increased significantly. Historically, movement of people from rural areas to cities and under-privileged nations to rich, affluent countries was a normal phenomenon. As increasing poverty and unemployment in the modern world have forced many poor workers in under-privileged and developing countries to search opportunities elsewhere, the demand in the developed countries like Canada have increased, especially for low-wage, low skilled, temporary workers. In Canada, the reluctance of many Canadians to accept low wage, low-skilled, temporary employment has fueled the demand for

This article, Why Immigration is a chequebook issue, is written by David Olive, a writer in the business section of the Toronto Star. This article was written in October of 2015, which is just when the oil price, the backbone of Canada’s economy, began to fall. This implies that Olive’s article was created in order to bring up the issue of immigration and how it may have an impact in this crucial time of Canada's economy. Olive’s stance on the issue of immigration is that immigrants will make Canada more advanced economically and technologically. Throughout this article, Olive uses a positive tone toward immigrants, explaining how they will benefit Canada, through saying that immigrants are accountable for Canada's “unlikely high standard

Educational attainment is strongly connected with the children of immigrant’s success (Brown, 1997). In order to integrate successfully into the new society, newcomer youth indicated a strong interest in taking advantage of educational opportunities (Brown, 1997). The strong desire to belong to their new society was evidenced by the fact that the majority of youth wanted to take advantage of the educational opportunities offered in Canada (Anisef & Kilbride, 2003). Indeed, education was believed to be the single most important element that would determine a person’s success in Canada. Immigrant youth strongly believed that those who do not have an education are less likely to obtain a job because employers look for employees with a good education

Canada has turned into an attractive place for immigrants from around the globe who are looking for a developed country that will give them good opportunities to succeed in their future. “Over the last few decades, Canadian immigrants have come primarily from these ten countries: China, India, Pakistan, the Philippines, South Korea, the United States, Iran, Romania, the United Kingdom, and Sri Lanka.”( Hughes). Immigration had been the key to Canada’s economy as it benefits it economically and politically. “Immigrants added their cultures, languages, and religions to the mix.” (Ibid, Hughes). New comer’s have a positive impact on Canadian society. They have contributed to Canada’s economy in so many ways but most importantly they have contributed by providing and assisting in skills and labour shortage, they have excelled in the educational opportunities offered in Canada and also they bring their culture to Canada when they immigrate here.

Much of Canada’s economic success has been at the hands of immigrants and migrants. At the beginning of the 20th century, the Canadian government advertised free land to European farmers, in an attempt to persuade them to begin working in Canada. These immigrants went on to contribute to the country’s vast agriculture industry, which much of the economy is based on. Still to this day, people around the world look to Canada as the land of opportunity. Many immigrants and refugees choose Canada as their new home because of the job opportunities available to them. However, not everyone interested in working in the country is able to stay there permanently. Despite this, those still interested in working for Canadian businesses and companies may

Every year, newcomers arrive in Canada carrying colourful expectations and excitements. Their contribution to our population, national growth, and workforces are important. Currently, we are experiencing a decline in population. As a result, the capability of national growth decreases. As educated, financially qualified and employable immigrants enter Canada, our labour market earns a chance to improve. The distribution of potentials benefits immigrants and citizens, regarding our multiculturalism and economy. Canada needs immigrants as much as immigrants need Canada. Therefore, annual immigration levels in Canada must be increased. “Canada is an association of peoples who have, and cherish, great differences, but work together because they can respect themselves and each other,” (Massey).1

Each year lots of new migrants enter the Canadian economy therefore Canada has been classified as a multi cultural country, and due to this our citizens are more socially and globally aware of what is going on around them. Canada’s immigration Act and system helps our country be more culturally diverse, it increases economic growth, and make’s Canada a safer place to be which we can call our home. Along with new migrants coming every year, therefore ethnic communities are massively increasing by population and size.

The level of immigrants coming to Canada should be increased because this way there won’t be any shortages in labour, new job opportunities will be opened up, and the economy will grow. Firstly, the levels of immigrants coming to Canada should be increased because there won't be any shortages in labour. There aren't enough skill trade labourers to get skill trade tasks completed, if Canada increases their immigrant level it enables Canada to bring in many different skill trade individuals. Company’s won’t have to shut down because there aren't enough labourers. In Addition, the level of immigrants coming to Canada should be increased because new job opportunities will be established. New immigrants will come to Canada and establish a variety

Since 1867, Canada has had laws and regulations governing the admission of immigrants. Immigration legislation has evolved and changed over and over, which shaped by the shifting social, political and economic climate, as well as dominant beliefs about race, desirability and integration. In this essay I will discuss about how effective of both policy “head tax” and Japanese Interment”. Though the “Head tax” the Canadian government make the money and the Canadian government have no intention to keep the Chinese worker from immigration in which result in the discrimination problem. Second I will talk about Japanese internment, how the Canadian government forced relocation subjected Japanese Canadians to government enforced curfews and interrogations. Moreover, their jobs and property were removed and they were sent to internment camps. The “Japanese Interment” and “Head tax “were very effective. it totally change their lives which make them harder to live and not getting the respect.The Canadian government does not allow both Chinese Canadian or Japanese to work for high wage jobs and living without the family. It seems like all the actions are set to protect the country Canada but it some how against the human right the discrimination problem again not only the Chinese but also Japanese.

Immigration is just one of many critical components for Canada’s economic future and its immigration policies are centered primarily around humanitarian and economic concerns (Ansari, 2017). Canada requires that if you are to emigrate to its nation other than as a refugee, you must be a skilled worker or business person who will help build the economy. A system of points is utilized to distinguish applicants who qualify under these conditions from those who do not (Government of Canada: Immigration, 2017, July 20). Previously, the Canadian government also implemented a business immigration program that helped quicken the entry and permanent residency process for immigrants with business and/or management experience who were willing to make

residency. (Merriam Webster, n. d.) is called an immigrant. The government of Canada decided to

While other political parties believe in promoting strategies with extended benefits, such as reunification, as the engine and building blocks of long term economic growth. Many scholars and political watchers suggest that in recent years the changes to Canada’s immigration policy have become more sensitive to economic considerations over the past family-class models of immigration reflecting a more specific labour market

Canada is a multicultural country which has a history of providing home for millions of immigrants since 19th century. Modern labor market of Canada heavily relies on immigrants who have higher education and specific skills that are valuable for the market. The number of immigrants steadily grows: in 2017 Canada accepted 300,000 immigrants, while in 2020 it is projected to have nearly 340,000 immigrants. In its turn, immigration helps to balance the aging demographic situation. With growing number of immigrants, the job opportunities would grow as well, and at the same time it would also increase the wage rates for native Canadians. However, the growing gap between the wages of immigrants and Canadians, a lack of opportunities for immigrants to be hired on a senior or middle positions are concerning. For the new immigrants it creates a serious situation. In a new country, the immigrant could not find the job one studied for, having to find a low-skilled job in order to earn money.

However, the employers do not represent the same progressive views and ideas. There is white ontology that limits access of the immigrants to workplace. As a matter of fact, Fanon suggests that the majority could limit minority in different ways, it could oppress it. (Fanon, 1952) At the same time, the minority, especially people of color, could not respond and react in the same way, as their rights and opportunities are limited. In the situation with the accent, the employers intentionally reject the applications based on immigrants’ language. However, the applicants could not change the decision of the employer, respond to it in any effective way. On the contrary, they have to just accept this as a reality. The immigrants are unfree and objectified

The plane’s wheels touched the ground, screeching triumphantly to a stop. Wide-eyed, I carefully pressed my face against the window, enchanted by the Qatari sunrise and beige sand dunes. Incredibly curious and enthusiastic to learn about my surroundings, I paid no heed to well-intentioned advice to stay within the comfortable surroundings of the compound. Whenever I did not have day trips planned or work to complete, I would make the twenty-minute walk to a small corner store nestled just outside a labour camp and get into conversation with the workers who were returning from their shifts. I was shocked to learn that they only had one day of rest a week, despite working close to twelve hours a day, and lived in overcrowded bunks that often lacked the necessary amenities. There was virtually no freedom of speech or freedom of association, and they risked losing their jobs and being sent home penniless if they dared to complain.
