Island Investment Dept: Greg MacLeod, spokesman for BCA Holdings, said immigration is the way to offset the effects of a declining population on the island. "It doesn't happen automatically," he said. "If you want immigrants to come to Cape Breton and to build up businesses and to live and work here, the community has to help them. Cape Breton needs help turning international students into permanent residents who can kickstart the economy, an island investment group says. He said BCA is already helping a few foreign students who wish to stay in Cape Breton after they graduate, but doing more requires a co ordinated effort. As
