Reasons For Migration To Canada

The latest report published by the Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) revealed that the number of international graduates immigrating to Canada through the Express Entry program has increased significantly last year.

At the age of 11, my life took a turn. To others, immigration was moving from country to country, but to me, it meant leaving my friends and family behind. On August 7, 2012 we moved to Canada. With all the challenges I was facing from immigration the biggest challenge was finding my identity in which I felt comfortable and knew I belonged. When I came from Pakistan I wore hijab. I was born in the year of 9/11 and that time my dad used to live in America when I grew up, my dad used to tell me what happened to Muslims in America after 9/11 so when my parents told me we were moving to Canada I was frightened to even though I knew that Canada is a different country and it both accepts and respects people of different origin. So when I moved to Canada I knew I had the decision to make, a decision about my identity, decision about who I want to be seen as.

As a child to an immigrant, I know how challenging it was for my parents to arrive to Canada, because of this I would like to help others who are immigrants. About a week ago, when I passed by your North York East location, and I thought it would be a good opportunity to work there. After I checked your online posting. However I am a student and cannot work in school hours, but I am flexible with my hours outside of school, I have read your posting and I am able to work in those hours. I am available to work 20 hours a week and that is weekends too. I am a hard worker and I am able to collaborate with your dedicated team to achieve success. I believe I would make a good member in your already successful association.

The composition of Canada’s population today is very different than it was many decades ago. In years prior to World War II Canada’s ethnic homegenetity was made up of mostly the British and French, although Canada was previously inhabited by Natives. However, people began a migration process that saw increased movement of people from one place to another through the world. Canada, being one of the classical migration countries began to pull immigrants at one period, then a push occurred after the world war that saw emigration out of Canada. This was followed by another period of pull factors that saw an expansion in the makeup of Canada’s ethnic population. According to Beaujot (2003) these push and pull factors are based on immigrant social and life course choices. The following are some of the ways that migration have influenced the ethnic

The Russians are leaving their homeland because of reasons such as violence, a lack of water, horrible sanitation, little health care, and a Civil War between the Red Army and the White Russians. Another reason the Russians are leaving their homeland to come to the United States is for the jobs,

People have lived in Canada for at least 10 000 years according to archaeologists. It was

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

For the past, 24years Canada averages 250,000 per year immigrants. This eventually leaves a drastic effect towards the Canadian people. As people all around the globe look towards Canada for social assistances and better job opportunities. However, this kind of attitude is not good for the Canadian people. As in Canada minimum of 1.5 million Canadian are looking for work with little job opportunities available at their disposal. So now due to growing number of immigrants in Canada, therefore Canadian are been forced to compete with the immigrants through Canada’s so-called “Employment Equity for Visible Minorities” programme. Secondly due to the invasion of immigrants in Canada it has caused an increase in house prices as well as demand for

Russia tried to build a person out of you, while Canada assumed that you knew how to be a person from the start, and that you’d turn out fine. This was both a cultural shock and a pleasant change for me; I grew up to love the community found in Toronto, and to wonder how to bring and apply its values wherever I went.

My family and I immigrated to Canada when I was seven years old. Because my parents’ degrees from China were not recognized, we constantly struggled financially. Growing up, while other kids around me enjoyed presents and holidays, I cooked and cleaned, mended clothing, and helped out at the small gift business that my father ran without pay five days a week. We could not afford to hire additional workers, so the two of us handled everything from administrative work to hard labour. I spent many holidays and weekends working on schoolwork in the small stall that we rented at a corner of the mall, one eye opened for potential customers. At school, my poor socioeconomic status made me a target for mockery and insults. I was often excluded by

My learning from the class presentation on Mihaly’s case was informed that systemic oppression, privilege, and power continued to have significant negative impact on the lives of immigrants who migrate to Canada in search of a better life. The fact that many immigrants migrated to Canada with advanced education, unsurpassed knowledge and expertise in their work field, does not equate to acquiring a decent job in Canada. The oppressive experience several immigrants similar to Mihaly confront when they integrate into Canadian society can be demoralising. Employment disparities contributed to the futile integration of immigrants into Canadian society due to the deficiency of Canadian work experience. In addition, most of their foreign credentials

Everyone has a dream they want to fulfill in their lifetime; big or small. Whether it is to own a house or to have a better education, they have something they want to achieve. The Canadian dream is a way to live freely without any worries and hardships. Through hard work, success will surely follow. The Canadian dream is combined with individual success, care for others, concern for the country; it is also to respect others, their background, and their religions.

The main reason why Russians have left their homeland was because of Jewish persecution. During the 1980s and the 1990s, the Jewish religion was forbidden to be practiced in the Soviet Union, along with a few other religions. Russia consists of one of the world’s largest Jewish communities, so many Jews living in Russia were discriminated against and faced prejudice. Jews living in the Soviet Union were under strict government control. For example, Hebrew study was banned and printing Jewish calendars was prohibited. In addition, it was forbidden to print Jewish books. In fact,
