Prejudice can take on many forms whether it's built around race, sexual orientation, religion, culture, gender, or age.

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.

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.

In “Immigrants” by Pat Mora, they are struggling to achieve acceptance and help their family have a better future. The parents are trying so hard to associate their children with “American traditions” and still are left wondering if they will be accepted in America. In my opinion nothing is worth loosing your actual culture or values. They are literally willing to do whatever it takes to transform heir children into American traditions. “Feed them mashed hot dogs and apple pie” (Line 2 Mora). Both Hot dogs and Apple pie are both American food and American culture. Wait there is more they are even considering changing the names of their children.

To prevent high levels of “unskilled” immigrants to Canada, the paper recommended a preference for immigrants with skills that would be valuable in the Canadian labour force specifically. Canada has one of the world’s largest supplies of resources like lumber, oil, and metals. Due to this, Canada has a shortage in the number of labourers, which caused problems in the production businesses.

Nowadays, Canada is facing the shortage of skilled labor, because the population is getting older and early retirement is occurring more frequently. Therefore, the government has offered some policies for immigrants to attract labor from abroad to solve this problem. In fact, immigrants have made an important contribution to the development of the Canadian economy, especially in the careers that native people might not want to work in (Kelly). Recently, a policy for immigrants was enacted called Express Entry program. Liwanag points out that “As Canada’s skills gap continues to widen, with an insufficient number of workers for the jobs available and inadequate temporary entry policies, Express Entry was established to help try to change that”. Accordingly, the Express Entry program of the Government has brought Canada remarkable advantages of the foreign workforce; however, there are obstacles for the candidate to be successful.
