Citizenship Laws: Jewish Immigrants

Conservative Governments Dept: This is true of countries in Latin America, the United States and certainly Canada. One does not have to look far to see successful business and political leaders who are either first- or second-generation immigrants, whether they be Mexico s Carlos Slim, the son of Lebanese-born immigrants and the wealthiest man in the world, or U.S. President Barack Obama, son of a Kenyan father. In Canada, where two of our most recent governors general were born in Hong Kong and Haiti respectively, high-profile and well-integrated immigrants at the pinnacle of success in either public or private life are increasingly and refreshingly commonplace, according to The Star. Rejecting a sad history of discriminatory immigration and citizenship laws that had at times actively prevented the entry or assimilation of Chinese, South Asian and Jewish immigrants, among others, and turning its back on the attitudes that had led to the internment of Canadians of Japanese descent during World War II, the Canadian government first began actively promoting the integration of immigrants through its multiculturalism policy in the early 1970s. Such policies have been pursued by both Liberal and Conservative governments ever since and many countries in the Americas think of themselves as having been largely built by immigrants. Multiculturalism is easier to achieve in such new societies. Among such countries, Canada stands apart as not only being multicultural, but as a country that has actively encouraged multiculturalism through its laws and policies for decades. As reported in the news.
