Essay On Fake News

Canada is well known for its size. It has the same size as China, yet it has about thirty times as less people. Inviting the refugees to Canada helps increase the country’s population and fill the empty space in the northern territories and the maritime provinces. Furthermore, the elderly population has been increasing dramatically in Canada, which means more retirements have been occurring. Thus, refugees will also help to fill empty workplaces, as Daniel Tencer states “Atlantic Canada has been facing low population growth and an aging workforce for years, and some business leaders there are pushing to make sure the region

These refugees are fleeing from their home countries with nothing but the clothes on their back and desperation. Canada does not have border problems as many countries in Europe do. EU countries have been having thousands of illegal refugees crossing their borders, leading to many logistic problems and tension between countries. Canada does not have this issue due to the giant Atlantic Ocean distancing us from Syria. However, the Canadian Government along with Canadian NGO’s, individual Canadians and private funds have assisted in bringing 33,000 refugees to Canada in the last

Other countries such as the United States of America has welcomed refugees with open arms, with this they had an outbreak of refugee industries. They had employed 3000 workers, however, Canada was not welcoming to refugees especially the Jews, because they thought they had nothing to offer which was not true because many refugees brought work and new customers. In an editorial, The Globe and Mail, June 19, 1939, it states,

Today, I’ll be talking about the reasons for why we should and shouldn’t allow refugees into Canada.

Canada is not a perfect country that makes no mistakes. Its road to democracy, multiculturalism and equality is long and still continues. Canada once faced serious racism problems, for example, German and Ukrainian Canadians were not treated well during World War I. It was the first time Canadian government and citizens took prejudiced and unfair actions to its own citizens. In 1914, more than a million people from Germany and Ukraine lived in Canada. Many Canadians feared that some of these immigrants from enemy countries might be spies; therefore, Germans and Ukrainians were labelled enemy aliens. They were required to carry their identifications and report their movements to the police, and many lost the right to vote. More than 8000 Germans

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

The Canadian refugee plan that Trudeau had promised has been a controversial one. Would it really endanger Canadian citizens if 25,000 refugees are let into Canada. Most Canadians do not oppose trudeau’s plan, however more than 70% of Canadians think that his aim is too high. The current reality is that more than 25,000 Syrian refugees have already been brought into Canada. In fact as of April 3rd 2015 the number of Syrian refugees that have been brought into Canada since november 4th 2015 is 26,213. So the argument that 25,000 is too high isn’t valid right now, because more than 25,000 have already came in and most Canadians didn’t even notice. Although the Canadian public and government don’t have the same opinion on letting refugees in the

There are various issues that revolve around Canadian politics. These issues can include various subjects, such as economics, multiculturalism, health care, immigration, and foreign policy. An important issue in Canada that is discussed in this essay is Canada’s constant changes to its immigration policy in order to improve its economic goals and the labour market. These issues are changing by different policies that the Canadian government are putting into place, which creates a more strict system in choosing who can immigrate into the country. Three articles that thoroughly analyze Canada’s immigration policy in order to implement these changes are the following. The first article is named: “New Directions in Immigration Policy: Canada’s

Thesis: Dissemination of news through social media allows for rapid distribution and incredible accessibility, but can lead to decreased understanding, stifled discussion, and even the propagation of fake news stories.

Another example of how Canadian intolerance is our perception of refugees. Whereas immigration is an economic, and cultural issue, our acceptance of refugees is a human rights, and sympathy based problem. Despite this, similar to immigration, there is a significant portion of our population who are opposed to the idea of helping refugees. According to the Environics institute, 39% of Canadians think that many refugees are lying to get into Canada, and 36% of Canadians believe we are taking too many refugees (Environics, 2016). If the data was represented all of Canada, it would be misleading for the people to assume that the majority of Canadians are in support of helping refugees, and although this data is not racially, or culturally motivated,

This particular study started with the comparison of certain immigration news and articles in which three separate British newspapers had published in the entire year of 2003. The Daily Telegraph, the Guardian, and the Independent are the media sources in which this case is based

(2007) attributes disparities in income between skilled immigrants and refugees to the fact that “refugees are admitted […] primarily on humanitarian rather than economic grounds”, less concerned about “their ability to establish themselves [and their] economic potential” and more about “their need for Canada’s protection” (18). Yu argues that because of this, refugee populations tend to be less educated and possess lower levels of language skills, leading to lower levels of income. Indeed, Krahn et. al (2000) found that only 43% of the refugees interviewed has received post-secondary credentials at home, compared to the Alberta average of 49% (p.63). Meanwhile, DeVoretz et al. (2004) found that over half of his refugee sample spoke neither of Canada’s official language. while over 70% of skilled immigrants

In the late 19 century, early 20th century Refugees from Russia, especially Jews, Mennonites and Doukhobors, settled in Canada. The world had different opinions on this matter, but most of the world took it as an advantage. The world took it as an advantage because the refugees can help and boost the economy for the better. (Tess Fuller 1) The refugees come from different places all around the world meaning that they come from different work environments. People from different countries know different jobs better so that would help our economy because instead of having people working in one type of job we would have different people from different countries be able to come and help us with the jobs that we are not so strong at doing. Refugees can help with jobs like plumbers, construction workers, and accountants, while we are good at jobs like doctors, social workers, and teachers. By letting the refugees come into our country it would give more of a diversity to the jobs we are working in right now. It would help benefit the world because there are a lot of jobs on high demand and by letting them come into our country they can help us fill those jobs up.

The quantity of individuals who are into Canada is consistently expanding as seen somewhere around 2001 and 2006, the quantity of remotely conceived individuals expanded by 13.6%, and by, 2006 Canada had developed to have 34 ethnic groups with no less than one hundred thousand individuals each, of which eleven have more than 1,000,000 individuals and various others are spoken to in littler sums. 16.2% of the populace self-distinguishes as a noticeable minority (Statistics Canada, 2011). This massive immigration has ensured that multiculturalism in Canada has never faced any threat of collapse. The Canadians know that the only way different cultures are going to strive in the country is by supporting legal immigration of people from various parts of the world into the country. By allowing the settlement of immigrants, multiculturalism in Canada was being

As the world evolves and changes due to the explosion of technology, so does mankind's ways of intellectual comprehension of informative news. The present day of news has overemphasized the meaning of fake news; which represents any form of false information that is illustrated as factual news. That tends to spread throughout the internet and the media. Misinformed news has taken over the world in so many ways, such as the birth of satirical and sketchy news, the financial motivation to publish actual false news, and difficult to sustain news.
