Labour Force: American Retreat and Birth Rate

labour force: But doing so effectively and responsibly requires investments in municipal infrastructure and services to help newcomers integrate and succeed, according to Toronto Star. Toronto, which is a particularly popular destination for immigrants, has reaped the benefits, becoming a truly global and dynamic city. Amid a global migrant crisis and American retreat on immigration, with a declining birth rate and shrinking labour force, now is the time to open our borders wider. At the same time, it disproportionately bears the pressures of a rising population. Consider that on Monday Toronto's community development committee recommended city council approve spending an additional 20 million to extend hotel and motel contracts into 2018 to house refugee claimants. Yet the governments that set our immigration policies have not always helped the city manage the influx. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
